A. influence B. invention C. discovery D. introduction
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:朋友圈的发明使人们能够以自己喜欢的任何方式进行交流成为可能。
考查名词辨析。influence影响;invention发明;discovery发现;introduction介绍。根据“...of WeChat Moments makes it possible for people to communicate in any way they like.”可知,朋友圈作为一项新的功能创造,为人们的交流提供了新的方式,invention符合语境。故选B。
22. —Where is Carmen?
—She ________ still be in the classroom. The lights are on.
A. must B. might C. can’t D. can
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——卡门在哪里?——她一定还在教室里。灯还亮着。
考查情态动词。must一定;might可能;can’t不可能;can能够。根据“The lights are on.”可知,此处表示有依据的肯定推测,must符合语境。故选A。
23. With the help of 5G technology, we can look through the Internet at ________ speed than before.
A. a high B. a higher C. the highest D. the higher
【答案】B
【解析】

考查形容词比较级。根据句子中的“than before”可知,这里需使用形容词“high”的比较级形式“higher”,且此处为泛指,应搭配不定冠词“a”,构成“a higher speed”。故选B。
24. —It’s reported that some robots ________ to work with traffic policemen in some cities.
—That’s amazing!
A. have send B. were sending C. will send D. were sent
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:—据报道,在一些城市,一些机器人被派去和交警一起工作。—太神奇了!
考查被动语态。主语“some robots”是动作的承受者,即机器人被派去工作,因此需用被动语态be done。故选D。

A. Either; or B. Neither; nor C. Both; and D. Not only; but also
【答案】D

考查连词辨析。Either...or要么……要么……;Neither...nor既不……也不……;Both...and两者都;Not only...but also不仅……而且……。根据“They really dance beautifully.”可知两人都有跳舞天赋,排除A和B选项;谓语动词是has,符合“就近原则”,“Both...and”作主语看作复数,“Not only...but also”作主语符合“就近原则”。故选D。
26. — Hi, Roy. Here is an invitation for you. — Really? I wonder ________.
A. where was it from B. whether it was from my best friend
C. why someone will know my address D. how did you get it
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:——嗨,Roy。这是给你的邀请函。——真的吗?我想知道它是否来自我最好的朋友。
考查宾语从句的语序。在宾语从句中,应使用陈述句语序(主语+谓语),而非疑问句语序。where was it from使用了疑问句语序(was it);whether it was from my best friend语序为陈述句(it was),且时态(过去时)符合语境(邀请函来源已确定);why someone will know my address语序正确,但时态不合理(“will know”为将来时,与当前收到邀请函的语境不符);how did you get it使用了疑问句语序(did you)。根据句意和语法规则,选项B最符合逻辑。故选B。
27. He ________ in a small county town, but nowadays he ________ in Shanghai.
A. used to work; used to work B. used to work; is used to working

A. watch B. watched C. have watched D. was watching
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——昨晚我给你打电话,但你没接电话。——我正在电影院和朋友们看电影。
考查过去进行时。根据“last night”和“didn’t answer”可知,对方当时正在看电影,强调过去某个时间点正在进行的动作,需用过去进行时was/were doing。故选D。
29. —Are you familiar with the boy ________ is playing basketball over there?
—No. I don’t know him at all.
A. who B. whose C. which D. what
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:——你熟悉那个在那边打篮球的男孩吗?——不,我根本不认识他。
考查关系代词辨析。who指人;whose指人的或物的,表示所属关系;which指物;what不作关系代词。根据句子结构,先行词“the boy”指人,在定语从句中作主语,需用指人的关系代词who引导。故选A。
30. —Teenagers are not allowed to wear earrings in our school. —It’s all right, ________.
A. I don’t agree. B. I can’t agree. C. I can’t agree more. D. I agree more.
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——在我们学校,青少年不允许戴耳环。——没关系,我非常同意。
考查情境交际。I don’t agree我不同意;I can’t agree我不能同意;I can’t agree more我完全同意;I agree more表达错误。根据前句“It’s all right”可知,说话人认可学校的规定,I can’t agree more.是固定表达,意为“完全同意”,符合语境。故选C。

句意:村子里的人们因为她的善良之心而认识她。
because因为;for为了,由于;as作为;with和。be known for...“因……而闻名/被知晓”。故选B。
【32题详解】
句意:每天,艾玛会烤比她能卖出的更多的面包。
worse更差;better更好;less更少;more更多。根据后文“She put the extra bread in a box...”可知,她有多余的面包分享,所以烤得比“she could sell”要“更多”。故选D。
【33题详解】
句意:这个盒子是为村子里任何贫穷且买不起一顿热饭的人准备的。
poor贫穷的;rich富有的;kind善良的;rude粗鲁的。根据“and couldn’t buy a warm meal”,买不起饭的人应是“贫穷的”。故选A。
【34题详解】

someone某人;anyone任何人;everyone每个人;nobody没有人。根据前文艾玛的善行,此处指需要帮助的人知道“有人”在乎他们。故选A。
【36题详解】
句意:艾玛的善良并不仅仅止步于面包店。
sell售卖;continue继续;stop停止;start开始。根据后文“She also organized community events...”,她的善行还在其他领域延续,所以在此处并未“停止”。didn’t stop at“没有止步于……”。故选C。
【37题详解】

away离开;home家;together一起;here这里。根据“bring the village’s people...”和活动目的,应是让大家“聚在一起”。bring...together“把……聚在一起”。故选C。
【38题详解】
句意:各行各业的人都会去,结交新朋友,感觉像一个真正的社区。
plans计划;dishes菜肴;houses房子;friends朋友。根据“making new...”和社区活动的社交功能,人们会“结交新朋友”。make new friends“交新朋友”。故选D。
【39题详解】
句意:受到她善举的影响,社区里的人们开始追随她的脚步。
Influencing影响,现在分词;Influenced被影响,过去分词;Influence影响,动词原形;To influence去影响,不定式。主语“the people”与动词“influence”之间为被动关系,应用过去分词形式构成状语。Influenced by...“受到……的影响”。故选B。
【40题详解】
句意:艾玛的善良真的引发了一场爱与善意的连锁反应。
kindness善良;life生活;village村庄;meal餐饭。全文核心是艾玛的“善良”行为产生了深远影响。Emma‘s kindness“艾玛的善良”。故选A。

After a break of more than three years, one of China’s most popular persons online, Li Ziqi finally returned on Nov. 12th.
Li came back with two new videos. One tells how she changed an old broken room into a nice dressing room and the other shows how she used the Chinese traditional lacquer ware techniques (漆器工艺) to make closet doors.
“I went to more than 20 provinces and visited over 100 intangible cultural heritage inheritors (非遗传承人)”, Li told the reporter from Xinhua about the past three years. She talked with them, studied their skills and learned the stories behind their work. Now, she wants to share their stories with the world through her videos.
Fans from around the world showed their excitement for her return. “I’ve missed you and your grandma. So glad you came back, so happy,” wrote one fan on YouTube. Why do people still like her so much even though she was away for over three years? “Today, everyone is busy and there’s no time for rest. But she slows down and learns only one thing,” said one fan. According to Southern Weekly, people love Li’s videos because they want to live a simple and slow life. Their wish is timeless, just like people’s love for Henry David Thoreau’s book Walden, which also talks about living simply in nature.
56. How long was Li Ziqi away online?
A. For more than three years. B. For less than three years.

Washing clothes is easy for most people living in cities, as washing machines do the job. However, in the countryside or poor places, people have to wash their clothes by hand, as they don’t have enough money to buy a washing machine.
Now, a new bamboo washing machine might help them solve this problem. The machine is a simpler version (版本) of a traditional washing machine. However, it uses the natural flow of water instead of electricity. It has a wooden rotation shaft (转轴) in the center and a bamboo drum outside. You just put the machine in a river and water will go into the bottom (底部) of the machine and make the main drum turn. This makes water flow that cleans clothes.
A 7-member team from the School of Design at Dalian Minzu University made the machine. Because of this, they won the “Best of the Best” prize at the 2020 Red Dot Awards (红点奖). Yu Yue, one of these students, said that the best thing about the machine is that it’s cheap and easy to make. “We give people the rotation shaft and teach them how to set up the machine. They can find bamboo and make it into drums. If there is no bamboo, they can also use materials like wood.”
The team spent more than half a year working on the machine. They had many team meetings to change the machine at least four times. But in the end, they were happy with the results.

About 2300 years ago, the area around Chengdu had bad floods in spring every year. Flood water from the mountains flowed (流) down the Minjiang River and covered the land. Luckily, the Qin governor, Li Bing, was a water engineer. The king of Qin provided the money and asked the governor to solve the problem.
Helped by his son and tens of thousands of workers from the area, Li Bing built a man-made island in the middle of the river. This island was shaped like a fish and it divided the water into an inner and an outer river. The inner river was deeper than but not as wide as the outer river. It took four years to build the island.
Li Bing also cut a new channel (运河) through Mount Yulei. This channel would take water away to irrigate the land in the flat farmland below. The rock of the mountain was very hard and difficult to cut. Li Bing used fire to heat the rock and then water to cool it quickly. This made the rock break into smaller pieces which could be carried away more easily. Cutting the channel took eight years!
After Li Bing’s work was successful, there were no more floods, and the Dujiangyan irrigation system (灌溉系统) allowed the farmers to grow more crops. The river flowed naturally and because there was no dam, ships and fish could pass freely. Sichuan became the most productive area in China, as it still is today. Today, scientists and visitors from all over the world come to look at this wonderful example of engineering. This work and the name of Li Bing live on.
The ____81____ of the Dujiangyan Irrigation System
Reason
Flood water from the mountains flowed down the Minjiang River and covered the land around Chengdu in spring every year.
Process
It took four years for Li Bing to build a man-made fish-like island in the middle of the river. And it divided the water into an inner and an outer river. The inner river was deeper but not ____82____ than the outer river.
Li Bing also cut a new channel (运河) through Mount Yulei. The channel took water away to irrigate the land in the flat farmland below. Because the rock of the mountain was very hard and difficult to cut, he used fire to make the rock break into smaller pieces, and then carry them away more easily. It took eight years to cut the channel.
____83____
Because of the ____84____ of Li Bing’s work, there were no more floods, farmers could grow more crops in Dujiangyan. The river flowed naturally, ships and fish could pass freely. Sichuan has become the most productive area in China. Today, scientists and visitors from ____85____ the world come to visit this wonderful example of engineering.

After a break of more than three years, one of China’s most popular persons online, Li Ziqi finally returned on Nov. 12th.
Li came back with two new videos. One tells how she changed an old broken room into a nice dressing room, and the other shows how she used the Chinese traditional lacquer ware techniques (漆器工艺) to make closet doors.
“I went to more than 20 provinces and visited over 100 intangible cultural heritage inheritors (非遗传承人)”, Li told the reporter from Xinhua about the past three years. She talked with them, studied their skills and learned the stories behind their work. Now, she wants to share their stories with the world through her videos.
Fans from around the world showed their excitement for her return. “I’ve missed you and your grandma. So glad you came back, so happy,” wrote one fan on YouTube. Why do people still like her so much even though she was away for over three years? “Today, everyone is busy and there’s no time for rest. But she slows down and learns only one thing,” said one fan. According to Southern Weekly, people love Li’s videos because they want to live a simple and slow life. Their wish is timeless, just like people’s love for Henry David Thoreau’s book Walden, which also talks about living simply in nature.
56. How long was Li Ziqi away online?

Washing clothes is easy for most people living in cities, as washing machines do the job. However, in the countryside or poor places, people have to wash their clothes by hand, as they don’t have enough money to buy a washing machine.
Now, a new bamboo washing machine might help them solve this problem. The machine is a simpler version (版本) of a traditional washing machine. However, it uses the natural flow of water instead of electricity. It has a wooden rotation shaft (转轴) in the center and a bamboo drum outside. You just put the machine in a river and water will go into the bottom (底部) of the machine and make the main drum turn. This makes water flow that cleans clothes.
A 7-member team from the School of Design at Dalian Minzu University made the machine. Because of this, they won the “Best of the Best” prize at the 2020 Red Dot Awards (红点奖). Yu Yue, one of these students, said that the best thing about the machine is that it’s cheap and easy to make. “We give people the rotation shaft and teach them how to set up the machine. They can find bamboo and make it into drums. If there is no bamboo, they can also use materials like wood.”
The team spent more than half a year working on the machine. They had many team meetings to change the machine at least four times. But in the end, they were happy with the results.
61. Why do people in poor areas have to wash clothes by hand?
A. Because they don’t like washing machines.
B. Because they think only hand-washing can wash clothes cleanly.
C. Because they are too poor to buy washing machines.
D. Because there is no electricity in their houses.
62. Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraphs 2-3?
A. The new washing machine is made of bamboo and wood.
B. The new washing machine can run without water.
C. The new washing machine is an older version of a traditional one.
D. The new washing machine is very expensive.
63. How many people are there in the team that made the machine?
A. 4 B. 20 C. 8 D. 7
64. How long did it take to make the machine?
A. About four months. B. Less than half a year. C. More than half a year. D. About half a year.
65. Which is the best title?
A. A new bamboo washing machine. B. A new style washing machine.
C. A high-tech washing machine. D. A 7-member team.

About 2300 years ago, the area around Chengdu had bad floods in spring every year. Flood water from the mountains flowed (流) down the Minjiang River and covered the land. Luckily, the Qin governor, Li Bing, was a water engineer. The king of Qin provided the money and asked the governor to solve the problem.
Helped by his son and tens of thousands of workers from the area, Li Bing built a man-made island in the middle of the river. This island was shaped like a fish and it divided the water into an inner and an outer river. The inner river was deeper than but not as wide as the outer river. It took four years to build the island.
Li Bing also cut a new channel (运河) through Mount Yulei. This channel would take water away to irrigate the land in the flat farmland below. The rock of the mountain was very hard and difficult to cut. Li Bing used fire to heat the rock and then water to cool it quickly. This made the rock break into smaller pieces which could be carried away more easily. Cutting the channel took eight years!
After Li Bing’s work was successful, there were no more floods, and the Dujiangyan irrigation system (灌溉系统) allowed the farmers to grow more crops. The river flowed naturally and because there was no dam, ships and fish could pass freely. Sichuan became the most productive area in China, as it still is today. Today, scientists and visitors from all over the world come to look at this wonderful example of engineering. This work and the name of Li Bing live on.
