I am glad to have carried a message from the Bohemian (波希米亚) neighbors, whom I grew up with, to their home country of the Czech Republic. I have just returned to New York, where I had the pleasure of taking Annie Pavelka, the living “Antonia” in my book My Antonia, and six of her children to the first screening of A Lost Lady. I have the good fortune to preserve relations with most of my characters. “Antonia” and her splendid children are flesh and blood realities. Every time I go back to them, I feel how much more interesting and lovable they are than my picture of them. I wish I could present them to you in person. I regret that I cannot satisfactorily meet your kind request for biographical (传记的) material. I avoid biographers, asking them to wait until I get my work further along. My first novel was published in 1912, and a period of twelve years is hardly long enough for a writer to find the form best suited for writing. I was not young when I began to write, and though living is a good preparation for writing, I do need more time to acquire a simple and modest way of presenting my work, however well I know what I wish to present. I am able to send you a very good photograph taken recently. I enclose a short biographical account which my publishers use for publicity purposes, and some casual reviews. Biographies usually begin to come along just about the time a writer has no more to say, and Ido not feel that time has yet come to me. I beg you, President Masaryk, to believe in my grateful appreciation of your letter. Respectfully yours, Willa Cather 4. Who is Antonia? A. A director of a movie. B. A character in a book. C. Cather’s relative in New York. D. Cather’s neighbor from Bohemia. 5. What does the author need for a most suitable writing style according to paragraph 3? A Time. B. Youth. C. Publishers’ advice. D. Financial support. 6. What does writing a biography mean to the author according to paragraph 4? A. An inspiration to her readers. B. A record of her achievements. C. A window into a writer’s world. D. An endpoint in a writer’s career. 7. What is the author’s purpose in writing this letter? A. To rebuild her Bohemian connection. B. To decline the president’s request. C. To explain her philosophy of writing. D. To appreciate the president’s interest. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一封应用文。文章介绍了美国作家Willa Cather礼貌谢绝Tomas Masaryk总统索要详尽的个人传记资料的请求。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“I have just returned to New York, where I had the pleasure of taking Annie Pavelka, the living “Antonia” in my book My Antonia, and six of her children to the first screening of A Lost Lady.(我刚刚回到纽约，在那里我有幸带着我的书My Antonia中活生生的“安东尼娅”安妮·帕维尔卡和她的六个孩子去看了《迷失的女人》的第一场放映)”可知，Antonia是书中的人物。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“I was not young when I began to write, and though living is a good preparation for writing, I do need more time to acquire a simple and modest way of presenting my work, however well I know what I wish to present.(我开始写作的时候并不年轻，虽然生活是写作的一个很好的准备，但我确实需要更多的时间来掌握一种简单而谦虚的方式来展示我的作品，无论我多么清楚我想展示什么)”可知，作者表达了拒绝的遗憾，并解释她需要时间去完善写作风格。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Biographies usually begin to come along just about the time a writer has no more to say, and Ido not feel that time has yet come to me.(传记通常是在作家无话可说的时候开始出现的，而我却不觉得时机已经到了)”可推知，写传记对作者来说意味着作家生涯的终点。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“I regret that I cannot satisfactorily meet your kind request for biographical (传记的) material.(很遗憾，我不能满意地满足您对传记资料的要求)”以及文章内容可知，这封信的目的是谢绝Masaryk总统索要详尽的个人传记资料的请求。为此，作者首先感谢总统的来信；分享与过去的人和小说中的人物联系的喜悦；解释不能提供传记材料的原因；附上一张近照和一段简短的传记以示对该请求的尊重和感激。故选B。 C A new form of house is popping up along the beaches of South Africa -tiny white beach nests (巢). They are just big enough to fit a family of African penguins. Their unique selling point: a safe and cool place for penguins to breed (繁殖). African penguins grow strong in the cold currents of the South Atlantic Ocean. But when they come to land, their thick black coat absorbs the heat, and they desperately look for cover — both for themselves and their eggs. Historically, the penguins dug holes in layers of guano (海鸟粪层), but in the 1800s, traders started selling guano as fertilizer (肥料), leaving the penguins and their eggs increasingly exposed to hunters and the burning sun. This, combined with other threats such as egg hunting, overfishing and climate change, has caused African penguin populations to decline sharply. That’s why conservationists have come to the rescue with the African Penguin Nest Project (APNP), which aims to build artificial nests to give penguin parents a safe and shaded place to raise their babies. Although guano 0trade gradually disappeared, recreating the layers isn’t easy. Seabird populations have declined so much over time, so there are simply not enough birds to recreate it, says Kevin Graham, director of the project. Instead, the project decided to build artificial nests. The design took years to develop, as Graham and other scientists closely studied old guano nests and worked out how best to copy “Mother Nature”. Getting the right temperature and humidity, the nests create an air conditioning effect. “The project started to build the nests in 2018 and the nests have usage rates of at least 99%,” he explains. Graham agrees that population recovery depends on more than just giving African penguins a safe place to breed. It’s not simply a case of “we give them a nest, the species is saved,” he says. “It’s a big part of it, but there has to be more.” 8. What can we learn about earlier penguins? A. Their eggs were often eaten by seabirds. B. They were traded in markets in the 1800s. C. Their waste was used as excellent fertilizer. D. They used guano layers to house themselves. 9. Why was the APNP started? A. To fight against egg hunting B. To offer penguins a shelter to live and breed. C. To call on people to rescue injured penguins. D. To build artificial nests to save endangered seabirds. 10. Why is it difficult to have natural nests for penguins? A. There isn’t enough guano. B. The land space is too limited. C. The temperature is too low. D. There are too many penguins. 11. What is the purpose of the text? A. To call for the protection of penguins. B. To introduce a new nest for African penguins. C. To promote the African Penguin Nest Project. D. To compare penguins’ natural and artificial nests. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了南非海滩上出现的一种新型房屋——专为非洲企鹅设计的白色小海滩巢穴，以及这一项目（非洲企鹅巢穴项目）的背景、目的、设计和实施效果。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Historically, the penguins dug holes in layers of guano (海鸟粪层), but in the 1800s, traders started selling guano as fertilizer (肥料), leaving the penguins and their eggs increasingly exposed to hunters and the burning sun.(从历史上看，企鹅在鸟粪层中挖洞，但在19世纪，商人开始出售鸟粪作为肥料，使企鹅和它们的蛋越来越多地暴露在猎人和烈日下)”可知，早期的企鹅用鸟粪层来筑巢。故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“That’s why conservationists have come to the rescue with the African Penguin Nest Project (APNP), which aims to build artificial nests to give penguin parents a safe and shaded place to raise their babies.(这就是为什么自然资源保护主义者发起了非洲企鹅巢项目（APNP），该项目旨在建造人工巢穴，为企鹅父母提供一个安全、阴凉的地方来抚养他们的孩子)”可知，启动APNP是为了为企鹅提供栖息和繁殖的地方。故选B项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Although guano 0trade gradually disappeared, recreating the layers isn’t easy. Seabird populations have declined so much over time, so there are simply not enough birds to recreate it, says Kevin Graham, director of the project.(虽然鸟粪贸易逐渐消失，但重建这些层并不容易。该项目负责人凯文·格雷厄姆（Kevin Graham）说，随着时间的推移，海鸟数量大幅减少，因此根本没有足够的鸟类来重建它)”可知，没有足够的鸟粪，所以企鹅很难有天然的巢穴。故选A项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“A new form of house is popping up along the beaches of South Africa — tiny white beach nests (巢). They are just big enough to fit a family of African penguins. Their unique selling point: a safe and cool place for penguins to breed (繁殖).(南非海滩上出现了一种新型房屋——小小的白色海滩巢。它们的大小刚好能容下一个非洲企鹅家族。它们独特的卖点是：一个安全凉爽的地方供企鹅繁殖)”以及纵观全文可推知，本文的目的是介绍非洲企鹅的一种新巢穴。故选B项。 D Speaking a native language that requires tones appears to boost perception (感知) of melody, but at the cost of rhythm, researchers report April 26 in Current Biology. The massive global study hints at how language skills seep into other areas of cognition. Tonal (声调的) languages use pitch to distinguish words that otherwise might sound the same. In Mandarin, for instance, mü means horse whereas mä means mother. Nontonal languages like Spanish sometimes include pitch changes to suggest emotion, for example, but not to change a word’s meaning. As a Mandarin speaker and flutist, Jingxuan Liu wondered about the crossover between language and music. While studying psychology as an undergraduate at Duke University, Liu helped analyze the musical abilities of nearly half a million people from 203 countries. Her colleagues had launched an online game in which participants completed several musical tasks, including identifying matching melodies at different pitches and finding beat tracks that fit songs’ rhythms. On average, native speakers of the 19 represented tonal languages were better at the melody task compared with speakers of 29 nontonal languages. And the effect wasn’t small — a tonal first language enhanced melodic perception by about half the amount that music lessons did, which was also surveyed. But tonal language speakers tended to be worse at the rhythm task. Humans must be choosy about what they pay attention to. Pitch patterns are vital in tonal languages, which might explain the musical trade-off. “You’ve got a finite resource of attention, and you’ve got to allocate that somehow,” says study coauthor Courtney Hilton, a cognitive scientist at the University of Auckland in New Zealand. Prior research on language and music often compared just two tongues, usually English and Cantonese or Mandarin. But other cultural influences, such as Eastern and Western music styles, could have affected results. By examining a wide range of people, the new study included languages never assessed in this way and reached more general conclusions. “Our result here is showing that the language someone speaks — which is an important part of culture — also shapes cognition, Hilton says. 12. What do the underlined words “seep into” in the first paragraph mean? A. Enter gradually. B. Control constantly C. Damage slightly. D. Understand completely. 13. What information can we get from the musical tasks of Jingxuan Liu’s colleagues? A. Tonal languages determine our music abilities. B. Tonal first languages can take the place of music lessons. C. Tonal language speakers perform better in the rhythm tasks. D. Tonal languages help native speakers to better acquire melody. 14. Which of the following statements does Courtney Hilton most agree with? A. The musical trade-off enhances human cognition. B. The musical abilities boost human perception of melody. C. A limited span of attention accounts for human musical trade-off. D. English and Cantonese or Mandarin affect human musical abilities. 15. What is the text mainly about? A. Native language influences human culture. B. Native language might shape musical ability. C. Native language is an important part of culture. D. Native language enhances human melodic perception. 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了带有音调的语言可以提高母语者的旋律感知能力，但是也会在一定程度上降低他们的节奏感。文章介绍了关于这个理论的相关实验来证明这一点。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“Speaking a native language that requires tones appears to boost perception (感知) of melody (说一门需要音调的母语似乎能提高对旋律的感知)”可知，带有音调的语言可以影响人们的旋律感，意思就是语言技能是会影响人们其它领域的认知能力的。由此猜测，seep into的意思接近于“慢慢进入”，意思是语言的影响会渗透，或进入其他领域，符合题意，故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“On average, native speakers of the 19 represented tonal languages were better at the melody task compared with speakers of 29 nontonal languages. (平均而言，19种声调语言的母语使用者比29种非声调语言的使用者在旋律任务上表现更好)”可知，带有音调的语言使用者在旋律感上更有优势。D选项（声调语言帮助母语者更好地掌握旋律）符合题意，故选D项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“You’ve got a finite resource of attention, and you’ve got to allocate that somehow. (你的注意力是有限的，你必须合理分配它)”可知，人类的注意力是有限的，而且很短暂，人们只能选择自己感兴趣的东西去关注，所以不是任何音乐天赋都可以随意获得的，这和人类的注意力有关系。由此推知，Courtney Hilton可能会同意有限的注意力跨度解释了人类在音乐上的取舍，故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并根据文章第一句话“Speaking a native language that requires tones appears to boost perception (感知) of melody, but at the cost of rhythm, researchers report April 26 in Current Biology. (研究人员4月26日发表在《当代生物学》上的报告称，说一门需要音调的母语似乎能提高对旋律的感知，但这是以节奏为代价的)”可知，文章介绍了带有音调的语言可以提高母语者的旋律感知能力，但是也会在一定程度上降低他们的节奏感，即母语可能塑造音乐能力。故选B项。 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Time and money are life’s most valuable resources. One of the great laws of economics is that time equals money. The phrase “time is money” is usually credited to Benjamin Franklin, who used it in an essay (Advice to a Young Tradesman.1748) ____16____ He encouraged people to treat time like money. However, most people think about time and money in vastly different ways. Time is our most scarce (稀缺) resource. Poor or rich we all have 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. ____17____ In a world of scarcity, choosing one thing means not being able to do something else. ____18____ Time is relatively scarce for people with higher incomes, partly because their time is more valuable. So, to have lots of time, rich people hire other people to do their household chores. However, a non-working person may spend more time on household chores. Time cannot be stored. One of the reasons we give little thought about how we use our limited resources is that we cannot save time. Time moves on whether we choose to spend it or not. ____19____ However, when people are made aware of their mortality (生命的有限), they wonder if they did make the most of their lives. In sum, time is anything but free. As a non-renewable resource, time is quite expensive. ____20____ They do their best to think of their time as unlimited, and unlimited goods have little value. Knowing that time is limited encourages us to ask how we are using our time. Do we want to spend these precious moments on social media or spend that time learning something new? Skills and knowledge take time so the more time you spend on them, the more you improve. A. It cannot be bought at any price. B. It means time is a valuable resource. C The value of time varies from person to person. D. Some people fail to realize that time is scarce E. Thus, each of us faces the choice of how to spend our time. F. You can’t bottle time and exchange it for an object or event. G. Actually, time and money are greatly different from each other. 【答案】16. B 17. E 18. C 19. F 20. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。时间和金钱是生命中最宝贵的资源，文章引用本杰明·富兰克林的观点，详细阐述了时间是一种宝贵的资源。 【16题详解】 根据上文“One of the great laws of economics is that time equals money.(经济学的一条伟大定律是时间等于金钱)”及下文“He encouraged people to treat time like money.(他鼓励人们把时间当作金钱来对待)”可知，经济学认为时间就是金钱，设空处承上启下，B选项“It means time is a valuable resource.(这意味着时间是一种宝贵的资源)”符合题意。故选B项。 【17题详解】 根据前文“Time is our most scarce (稀缺) resource. Poor or rich, we all have 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.(时间是我们最稀缺的资源。无论贫穷还是富有，我们都有一天24小时，一周7天)”以及后文“In a world of scarcity, choosing one thing means not being able to do something else.(在一个稀缺的世界里，选择一件事就意味着不能做其他的事)”可知，此处讲述时间稀缺，应该如何选择度过，所以E项“Thus, each of us faces the choice of how to spend our time.(因此，我们每个人都面临着如何度过时间的选择)”符合本段主题，和前文构成因果关系。故选E项。 【18题详解】 设空位于段首，为本段中心句，根据后文“Time is relatively scarce for people with higher incomes, partly because their time is more valuable. So, to have lots of time, rich people hire other people to do their household chores. However, a non-working person may spend more time on household chores.(对于收入高的人来说，时间相对来说是稀缺的，部分原因是他们的时间更有价值。所以，为了有更多的时间，富人会雇人帮他们做家务。然而，一个不工作的人可能会花更多的时间在家务上)”可知，本段主要讲述了每个人的时间价值不同，所以C项“The value of time varies from person to person.(时间的价值因人而异)”符合本段主题，为中心句。故选C项。 【19题详解】 根据前文“Time cannot be stored. One of the reasons we give little thought about how we use our limited resources is that we cannot save time. Time moves on whether we choose to spend it or not.(时间是无法储存的。我们很少考虑如何使用有限的资源的原因之一是我们无法储存时间。不管我们是否愿意花时间，时间都在流逝)”可知，此处讲述时间无法储存，所以F项“You can’t bottle time and exchange it for an object or event.(你不能把时间装在瓶子里，然后用它来交换一个对象或事件)”符合本段主题。故选F项。 【20题详解】 根据前文“In sum, time is anything but free. As a non-renewable resource, time is quite expensive.(总之，时间绝不是免费的。时间作为一种不可再生资源，是非常昂贵的)”以及后文“They do their best to think of their time as unlimited, and unlimited goods have little value.(他们竭力认为自己的时间是无限的，而无限的商品几乎没有价值)”可知，前文讲述时间的宝贵，后文讲述有人竭力认为自己的时间是无限的，所以空处应是一个转折句，D项“Some people fail to realize that time is scarce.(有些人没有意识到时间是宝贵的)”符合文意，承接上文，引出下文。故选D项。 第三部分 语言知识运用（共三节，满分 分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下列短文，从每小题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选最佳选项，并在答 题纸上将该项涂黑。 Actor Anthony Anderson has realized a dream 30 years in the making.

Since the Wall looks a lot like the stone and soil surrounding it, ____38____ is difficult to see it with the human eye even from low Earth orbit or to get it ____39____ (distinguish) in most orbital photos. However, this doesn't take away the wonder of this astonishing ancient structure.

I am glad to have carried a message from the Bohemian (波希米亚) neighbors, whom I grew up with, to their home country of the Czech Republic. I have just returned to New York, where I had the pleasure of taking Annie Pavelka, the living “Antonia” in my book My Antonia, and six of her children to the first screening of A Lost Lady. I have the good fortune to preserve relations with most of my characters. “Antonia” and her splendid children are flesh and blood realities. Every time I go back to them, I feel how much more interesting and lovable they are than my picture of them. I wish I could present them to you in person. I regret that I cannot satisfactorily meet your kind request for biographical (传记的) material. I avoid biographers, asking them to wait until I get my work further along. My first novel was published in 1912, and a period of twelve years is hardly long enough for a writer to find the form best suited for writing. I was not young when I began to write, and though living is a good preparation for writing, I do need more time to acquire a simple and modest way of presenting my work, however well I know what I wish to present. I am able to send you a very good photograph taken recently. I enclose a short biographical account which my publishers use for publicity purposes, and some casual reviews. Biographies usually begin to come along just about the time a writer has no more to say, and Ido not feel that time has yet come to me.

They are just big enough to fit a family of African penguins. Their unique selling point: a safe and cool place for penguins to breed (繁殖). African penguins grow strong in the cold currents of the South Atlantic Ocean. But when they come to land, their thick black coat absorbs the heat, and they desperately look for cover — both for themselves and their eggs. Historically, the penguins dug holes in layers of guano (海鸟粪层), but in the 1800s, traders started selling guano as fertilizer (肥料), leaving the penguins and their eggs increasingly exposed to hunters and the burning sun. This, combined with other threats such as egg hunting, overfishing and climate change, has caused African penguin populations to decline sharply. That’s why conservationists have come to the rescue with the African Penguin Nest Project (APNP), which aims to build artificial nests to give penguin parents a safe and shaded place to raise their babies. Although guano 0trade gradually disappeared, recreating the layers isn’t easy. Seabird populations have declined so much over time, so there are simply not enough birds to recreate it, says Kevin Graham, director of the project. Instead the project decided to build artificial nests. The design took years to develop, as Graham and other scientists closely studied old guano nests and worked out how best to copy “Mother Nature”. Getting the right temperature and humidity, the nests create an air conditioning effect. “The project started to build the nests in 2018 and the nests have usage rates of at least 99%,” he explains. Graham agrees that population recovery depends on more than just giving African penguins a safe place to breed. It’s not simply a case of “we give them a nest, the species is saved,” he says. “It’s a big part of it, but there has to be more.” 8. What can we learn about earlier penguins? A. Their eggs were often eaten by seabirds. B. They were traded in markets in the 1800s. C. Their waste was used as excellent fertilizer. D. They used guano layers to house themselves. 9. Why was the APNP started? A. To fight against egg hunting B. To offer penguins a shelter to live and breed. C. To call on people to rescue injured penguins. D. To build artificial nests to save endangered seabirds. 10. Why is it difficult to have natural nests for penguins? A. There isn’t enough guano. B. The land space is too limited. C. The temperature is too low. D. There are too many penguins. 11. What is the purpose of the text? A. To call for the protection of penguins. B. To introduce a new nest for African penguins. C. To promote the African Penguin Nest Project. D. To compare penguins’ natural and artificial nests. D Speaking a native language that requires tones appears to boost perception (感知) of melody, but at the cost of rhythm, researchers report April 26 in Current Biology. The massive global study hints at how language skills seep into other areas of cognition. Tonal (声调的) languages use pitch to distinguish words that otherwise might sound the same. In Mandarin, for instance, mü means horse whereas mä means mother. Nontonal languages like Spanish sometimes include pitch changes to suggest emotion, for example, but not to change a word’s meaning. As a Mandarin speaker and flutist, Jingxuan Liu wondered about the crossover between language and music. While studying psychology as an undergraduate at Duke University, Liu helped analyze the musical abilities of nearly half a million people from 203 countries. Her colleagues had launched an online game in which participants completed several musical tasks, including identifying matching melodies at different pitches and finding beat tracks that fit songs’ rhythms. On average, native speakers of the 19 represented tonal languages were better at the melody task compared with speakers of 29 nontonal languages. And the effect wasn’t small — a tonal first language enhanced melodic perception by about half the amount that music lessons did, which was also surveyed. But tonal language speakers tended to be worse at the rhythm task. Humans must be choosy about what they pay attention to. Pitch patterns are vital in tonal languages, which might explain the musical trade-off. “You’ve got a finite resource of attention, and you’ve got to allocate that somehow,” says study coauthor Courtney Hilton, a cognitive scientist at the University of Auckland in New Zealand. Prior research on language and music often compared just two tongues, usually English and Cantonese or Mandarin. But other cultural influences, such as Eastern and Western music styles, could have affected results. By examining a wide range of people, the new study included languages never assessed in this way and reached more general conclusions. “Our result here is showing that the language someone speaks — which is an important part of culture — also shapes cognition, Hilton says. 12. What do the underlined words “seep into” in the first paragraph mean? A. Enter gradually. B. Control constantly C. Damage slightly. D. Understand completely. 13. What information can we get from the musical tasks of Jingxuan Liu’s colleagues? A. Tonal languages determine our music abilities. B. Tonal first languages can take the place of music lessons. C. Tonal language speakers perform better in the rhythm tasks. D. Tonal languages help native speakers to better acquire melody. 14. Which of the following statements does Courtney Hilton most agree with? A. The musical trade-off enhances human cognition. B. The musical abilities boost human perception of melody. C. A limited span of attention accounts for human musical trade-off. D. English and Cantonese or Mandarin affect human musical abilities. 15. What is the text mainly about? A. Native language influences human culture. B. Native language might shape musical ability. C. Native language is an important part of culture. D. Native language enhances human melodic perception. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Time and money are life’s most valuable resources. One of the great laws of economics is that time equals money. The phrase “time is money” is usually credited to Benjamin Franklin, who used it in an essay (Advice to a Young Tradesman.1748) ____16____ He encouraged people to treat time like money. However, most people think about time and money in vastly different ways. Time is our most scarce (稀缺) resource. Poor or rich, we all have 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. ____17____ In a world of scarcity, choosing one thing means not being able to do something else. ____18____ Time is relatively scarce for people with higher incomes, partly because their time is more valuable. So, to have lots of time, rich people hire other people to do their household chores. However, a non-working person may spend more time on household chores. Time cannot be stored. One of the reasons we give little thought about how we use our limited resources is that we cannot save time. Time moves on whether we choose to spend it or not. ____19____ However, when people are made aware of their mortality (生命的有限), they wonder if they did make the most of their lives. In sum, time is anything but free. As a non-renewable resource, time is quite expensive. ____20____ They do their best to think of their time as unlimited, and unlimited goods have little value. Knowing that time is limited encourages us to ask how we are using our time. Do we want to spend these precious moments on social media or spend that time learning something new? Skills and knowledge take time so the more time you spend on them, the more you improve. A. It cannot be bought at any price. B. It means time is a valuable resource. C. The value of time varies from person to person. D. Some people fail to realize that time is scarce E. Thus, each of us faces the choice of how to spend our time. F. You can’t bottle time and exchange it for an object or event. G. Actually, time and money are greatly different from each other. 第三部分 语言知识运用（共三节，满分 分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下列短文，从每小题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选最佳选项，并在答 题纸上将该项涂黑。 Actor Anthony Anderson has realized a dream 30 years in the making.
