Red sky in the morning, sailors (水手) take warning.” Is the saying true? It turns out that it is. A red sky at sunset may mean that there are clear skies to the west, where the sun sets. A red sky at sunrise usually means that the clear weather has already passed, so storms might be coming. Forecasting the weather has been practiced for thousands of years. In the 5th century BC, the Greeks sent out forecasts to sailors. They used signs in nature to forecast the weather. But today, meteorologists send exact forecasts further in advance (提前). They use scientific instruments to study weather conditions around the world and make forecasts. Pilots, farmers and many other people depend on these forecasts. Luckily, most of us can simply look on the smart phone or turn on the TV to find out what kind of weather is coming. If you are looking for some signs of the weather, pay attention to nature. There are two basic rules used in weather forecasting: Weather generally moves from west to east, and low air pressure (压力) usually means rain or snow. So pay attention to the signs. If rainbows form in the west at sunrise, the sun is on the way. Smell the flowers—their smells are stronger in wet air. What are the ants doing? Are they moving to higher ground? This could mean a drop in air pressure. Are the birds flying low or high? Falling air pressure may influence birds’ ears, so they fly low. And if the sky is red at sunset, you might plan a picnic for the next day! 32．What is the old saying about? A．The beauty of sunrise. B．The night sky. C．The signs of the weather. 33．What does the underlined word “meteorologists” mean? A．The persons who give daily weather reports on TV. B．The persons who carry out research on natural history. C．The persons who do scientific studies of weather conditions. 34．How does the writer develop his idea in paragraph 2? A．By listing the reasons for terrible weather. B．By telling a true story about weather forecasting. C．By introducing different ways of forecasting the weather. 35．What do we know from the last paragraph? A．It’ll be sunny if ants move to higher places. B．The smells of flowers are stronger in wet air. C．Birds fly higher because of the low air pressure. 36．What is the writer’s purpose in writing the text? A．To encourage people to get close to nature. B．To express the need for weather forecasting. C．To explain nature can tell us about the weather. 【答案】32．C 33．C 34．C 35．B 36．C 【导语】本文主要围绕一句关于天气预测的谚语展开，介绍了天气预测的历史、现代气象学家预测天气的方式，以及通过观察自然现象预测天气的方法，展现了自然现象与天气之间的联系以及天气预测的多种方式。 32．细节理解题。根据“An old saying used for forecasting (预测) the weather says, ‘Red sky at night, sailors’ delight. Red sky in the morning, sailors (水手) take warning.’”可知，这句古老的谚语是关于天气迹象的，即夜晚红天空，水手高兴；早晨红天空，水手要警惕。所以这句谚语是关于天气的迹象的。故选C。 33．词句猜测题。根据“But today, meteorologists send exact forecasts further in advance (提前). They use scientific instruments to study weather conditions around the world and make forecasts.”可知，今天，气象学家提前发出精确的预报，他们使用科学仪器研究世界各地的天气状况并做出预报。由此可推测，meteorologists指的是进行气象条件科学研究的人。故选C。 34．篇章结构题。根据“Forecasting the weather has been practiced for thousands of years...They use scientific instruments to study weather conditions around the world and make forecasts.”可知，第二段首先提到天气预测已经实践了数千年，接着介绍了古希腊人用自然现象预测天气，然后转折提到今天气象学家用科学仪器提前精确预测天气，所以第二段是通过介绍不同的天气预测方式来展开观点的。故选C。 35．细节理解题。根据“Smell the flowers—their smells are stronger in wet air.”可知，在潮湿的空气中，花香更浓郁。故选B。 36．主旨大意题。根据“If you are looking for some signs of the weather, pay attention to nature.”以及全文内容可知，本文主要介绍了通过观察自然现象来预测天气的方法，即自然可以告诉我们关于天气的信息。故选C。 D Do you often say “I love you” to your parents? Three students from different countries give their answers. Du Sizheng, 14, China I say it a lot. I say “I love you” to them on some important days such as on their birthdays. I know some of my friends are shy to say it to their parents, but I think almost all parents would like to hear it. Sophia, 13, the US I’m pretty sure most of my friends in the US do say a quick “I love you” when they go to school or come home. We don’t usually do that in my family. But we have an understanding of each other. My parents and I both know that we love each other. Kim, 20, South Korea We rarely say that. When I was a little kid, I said it a lot. The last time I said “I love you” to my parents was at the airport. They were sending me off to China.

Do you watch short videos (短视频) on some apps? According to the China Internet Network Information (信息) Center, the number of short video users reached 773 million in March, 2020. That is, about 86% of all Chinese Internet users are watching or making short videos, or both. If you think short videos are only popular in China, you are wrong. TikTok has more than 800 million users around the world. 　　Many users like short videos. They say the videos not only make them relax, but also teach them useful skills. “I love watching Lao Qiao’s short videos on my phone, “Francis, one of the short video users, says. “Lao Qiao is a famous cook and his videos are my favourite ones. From his videos, people can learn how to make Shaanxi noodles.” 　　However, quite a few people think short videos are not that good. “There are many other ways to relax, like watching movies, reading books and playing sports,” they say. “All of them are more meaningful (有意义的) to people. What’s more, if people start watching the short videos, they can hardly (几乎不) stop. There are always new ones waiting for them, so they always spend hours on them.” 　　Some educators (教育家) say people should not spend much time on short videos. “Most of them are just for fun. They don’t teach people to think or to improve themselves. It’s not good for people, and not good for society (社会), either.” 41．From the first paragraph (段落), we know that ________. A．children around the world like watching short videos B．people spend much time watching short videos C．short videos are popular around the world D．TikTok is the first short video app in China 42．The writer talks about Francis in Paragraph 2 to ________.

B．Try not to spend much time on short videos. C．Make some short videos about life by ourselves. D．Use short videos to do something meaningful for society. 45．What is the best title for the passage? A．People’s love for short videos B．How to use the Internet C．People’s ideas on short videos D．How to make short videos 【答案】41．C 42．D 43．D 44．B 45．C 【导语】本文主要谈论短视频现在的用户数量很多，在不同国家都很受欢迎，也谈论了不同的人对短视频的看法。 41．细节理解题。根据“If you think short videos are only popular in China, you are wrong. TikTok has more than 800 million users around the world.”可知，短视频在全球都很流行。故选C。 42．推理判断题。根据“From his videos, people can learn how to make Shaanxi noodles.”可知，作者提到Francis是为了展示人们可以通过短视频学到东西。故选D。 43．词句猜测题。根据“There are always new ones waiting for them”可知，总有新的短视频，这里的“ones”指代前文提到的“short videos”。故选D。 44．细节理解题。根据“Some educators say people should not spend much time on short videos.”可知，教育家建议我们不要花太多时间在短视频上。故选B。 45．最佳标题题。本文主要讨论了人们对短视频的不同看法，包括支持者和反对者的观点，因此最佳标题是“人们对短视频的观点”。故选C。 4、 阅读表达。(本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分) What do you usually do in your free time?

They’ve known about a growing need for students’ free time activities. Now, they put a notice on their website. NOTICE In order to make students’ free time life more colorful, our community has set up four activities for the students aged from 6 to 18. All the activities are free. If you want to have lunch here, you need to pay 15 yuan for each meal. Activity Time Saturday & Sunday 8:00-9:30 Creative Thinking (Public Classroom) 10:00-11:30 Sports (Sports Center) 13:00-14:30 Volunteering (Sun Square) 15:00-16:30 Amusement (Public Hall) Arriving Here: Bus 628 or Bus 816 to Central Station (Then a 5-minute walk to Sun Community Building) Call: 495-3639 Welcome to join us! 29.

A．the four activities can add color to students’ free time life B．students need to pay 15 yuan if they take part in the activities C．students should go to the community building every weekend D．students can take Bus 816 for 5 minutes to get to Sun Community Building C An old saying used for forecasting (预测) the weather says, “Red sky at night, sailors’ delight. Red sky in the morning, sailors (水手) take warning.” Is the saying true? It turns out that it is. A red sky at sunset may mean that there are clear skies to the west, where the sun sets. A red sky at sunrise usually means that the clear weather has already passed, so storms might be coming. Forecasting the weather has been practiced for thousands of years. In the 5th century BC, the Greeks sent out forecasts to sailors. They used signs in nature to forecast the weather. But today, meteorologists send exact forecasts further in advance (提前). They use scientific instruments to study weather conditions around the world and make forecasts. Pilots, farmers and many other people depend on these forecasts. Luckily, most of us can simply look on the smart phone or turn on the TV to find out what kind of weather is coming. If you are looking for some signs of the weather, pay attention to nature. There are two basic rules used in weather forecasting: Weather generally moves from west to east, and low air pressure (压力) usually means rain or snow. So pay attention to the signs. If rainbows form in the west at sunrise, the sun is on the way. Smell the flowers—their smells are stronger in wet air. What are the ants doing? Are they moving to higher ground? This could mean a drop in air pressure. Are the birds flying low or high? Falling air pressure may influence birds’ ears, so they fly low. And if the sky is red at sunset, you might plan a picnic for the next day! 32．What is the old saying about? A．The beauty of sunrise. B．The night sky. C．The signs of the weather. 33．What does the underlined word “meteorologists” mean? A．The persons who give daily weather reports on TV. B．The persons who carry out research on natural history. C．The persons who do scientific studies of weather conditions. 34．How does the writer develop his idea in paragraph 2? A．By listing the reasons for terrible weather. B．By telling a true story about weather forecasting. C．By introducing different ways of forecasting the weather. 35．What do we know from the last paragraph? A．It’ll be sunny if ants move to higher places. B．The smells of flowers are stronger in wet air. C．Birds fly higher because of the low air pressure. 36．What is the writer’s purpose in writing the text? A．To encourage people to get close to nature. B．To express the need for weather forecasting. C．To explain nature can tell us about the weather. D Do you often say “I love you” to your parents? Three students from different countries give their answers. Du Sizheng, 14, China：I say it a lot. I say “I love you” to them on some important days such as on their birthdays. I know some of my friends are shy to say it to their parents, but I think almost all parents would like to hear it. Sophia, 13, the US：I’m pretty sure most of my friends in the US do say a quick “I love you” when they go to school or come home. We don’t usually do that in my family. But we have an understanding of each other. My parents and I both know that we love each other. Kim, 20, South Korea： We rarely say that. When I was a little kid, I said it a lot. The last time I said “I love you” to my parents was at the airport. They were sending me off to China. I think they were surprised to hear it at the time. 37．In Sophia’s opinion, American children often say “I love you” when ________. ①they go to school ②it is their birthday ③they come back home  ④they go to another country A．①② B．③④ C．①③ D．②③ 38．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．Kim never comes to China. B．Sophia often says “I love you” to her parents. C．Du is shy to say “I love you” to his parents. D．Kim often said “I love you” to his parents when he was little. 39．The underlined word “rarely” means “________” in Chinese. A．总是 B．经常 C．从来不 D．很少 40．What’s the best title (标题) for the passage? A．When to say “I love you” B．Different answers to saying “I love you” to parents C．How to make parents happy D．No “I love you” in most countries E What do you usually do in your free time? Do you watch short videos (短视频) on some apps? According to the China Internet Network Information (信息) Center, the number of short video users reached 773 million in March, 2020. That is, about 86% of all Chinese Internet users are watching or making short videos, or both. If you think short videos are only popular in China, you are wrong. TikTok has more than 800 million users around the world. 　　Many users like short videos. They say the videos not only make them relax, but also teach them useful skills. “I love watching Lao Qiao’s short videos on my phone, “Francis, one of the short video users, says. “Lao Qiao is a famous cook and his videos are my favourite ones. From his videos, people can learn how to make Shaanxi noodles.” 　　However, quite a few people think short videos are not that good. “There are many other ways to relax, like watching movies, reading books and playing sports,” they say. “All of them are more meaningful (有意义的) to people. What’s more, if people start watching the short videos, they can hardly (几乎不) stop. There are always new ones waiting for them, so they always spend hours on them.” 　　Some educators (教育家) say people should not spend much time on short videos. “Most of them are just for fun. They don’t teach people to think or to improve themselves. It’s not good for people, and not good for society (社会), either.” 41．From the first paragraph (段落), we know that ________. A．children around the world like watching short videos B．people spend much time watching short videos C．short videos are popular around the world D．TikTok is the first short video app in China 42．The writer talks about Francis in Paragraph 2 to ________. A．describe how much he loves using his phone B．tell readers how he learns to make videos C．ask readers to watch Lao Qiao’s short videos D．show people learn something through short videos 43．The underlined word “ones” in Paragraph 3 refers to (指的是) ________. A．movies and books B．other ways to relax C．useful skills D．short videos 44．What do the educators ask us to do? A．Make full use of short videos to have fun. B．Try not to spend much time on short videos. C．Make some short videos about life by ourselves. D．Use short videos to do something meaningful for society. 45．What is the best title for the passage? A．People’s love for short videos B．How to use the Internet C．People’s ideas on short videos D．How to make short videos 4、 阅读表达。(本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分) What do you usually do in your free time? Many young people grow vegetables on the balcony (阳台). Let’s see what the two young people think of that. Zhang Chao, a 17-year-old boy, is one of the “balcony farmers”. He likes to grow tomatoes at home when he is free. His love for that comes from his grandfather. When he was small, he lived in the countryside with his grandparents. And he learned to grow vegetables from his grandfather at that time. For Zhang, growing vegetables at home is not easy work, but it is important. Fang Minke is a girl student from Shenzhen. She likes growing vegetables on the balcony, too. She started to do that last year.

That is, about 86% of all Chinese Internet users are watching or making short videos, or both. If you think short videos are only popular in China, you are wrong. TikTok has more than 800 million users around the world. 　　Many users like short videos. They say the videos not only make them relax, but also teach them useful skills. “I love watching Lao Qiao’s short videos on my phone, “Francis, one of the short video users, says. “Lao Qiao is a famous cook and his videos are my favourite ones. From his videos, people can learn how to make Shaanxi noodles.” 　　However, quite a few people think short videos are not that good. “There are many other ways to relax, like watching movies, reading books and playing sports,” they say. “All of them are more meaningful (有意义的) to people. What’s more, if people start watching the short videos, they can hardly (几乎不) stop. There are always new ones waiting for them, so they always spend hours on them.” 　　Some educators (教育家) say people should not spend much time on short videos. “Most of them are just for fun. They don’t teach people to think or to improve themselves. It’s not good for people, and not good for society (社会), either.” 41．From the first paragraph (段落), we know that ________.

He likes to grow tomatoes at home when he is free. His love for that comes from his grandfather. When he was small, he lived in the countryside with his grandparents.
