The turning point of my life was my decision to give up a promising business career and study music. My parents, although sympathetic, and sharing my love of music, disapproved of it as a profession. This was understandable in view of the family background. My grandfather had taught music for nearly forty years. Though much beloved and respected in the community, he earned barely enough to provide for his large family. As a consequence of this example in the family, the very mention of music as a profession carried with it a picture of a risky existence with uncertain financial rewards. My parents insisted on college instead of a music school, and to college I went-quite happily, as I remember, for although I loved my violin and spent most of my spare time practicing, I had many other interests.
Before my graduation from college, the family met with severe financial reverses and I felt it my duty to leave college and take a job. Thus was I launched upon a business career—which I always think of as the wasted years. Now I do not for a moment mean to disparage (贬低) business. My whole point is that it was not for me. I went into it for money, and aside from the satisfaction of being able to help the family, money is all I got out of it. It was not enough. I felt that life was passing me by.
I continued to make money, and finally, bit by bit, accumulated enough to enable me to go abroad to study music. I resigned from my position and, feeling like a man released from jail, sailed for Europe. I stayed four years, worked harder than I had ever dreamed of working before and enjoyed every minute of it. “Enjoyed” is too mild a word. I walked on air. I really lived. I was a free man and I was doing what I loved to do and what I was meant to do.
If I had stayed in business, I might be a comparatively wealthy man today, but I do not believe I would have made a success of living. I would have given up all those inner satisfactions that money can never buy.
41. The writer’s parents didn’t want him to take a music career mainly because .
A. the writer didn’t show much talent in playing music
B. college was a much better option than a music school
C. it seemed an unstable and financially-challenged profession
D. the living conditions of the writer’s parents weren’t good enough
42. What can be learned about the writer’s experience of college?
A. The writer enjoyed the fruitful college life
B. The writer dropped out before graduation.
C. The writer kept playing the violin every day.
D. The writer went to college unwillingly.
43. What was the most important thing the writer achieved from his business career?
A. A sense of belonging
B. A considerable fortune
C. The satisfaction of helping others
D. The pride of being a wealthy man.
44. What does the underlined sentence I walked on air. in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. I was interviewed by a broadcaster. B. My music was alive on broadcast.
C. I felt very relaxed indeed D. I was extremely excited
45. What message does the passage mainly convey?
A. Being able to do what one loves is the best kind of life.
B. A success of living depends on one’s adaption to life.
C. One should think twice before he/she makes a decision.
D. Ups and downs make one even stronger.
C
Spring is the season to harvest West Lake Longjing tea, which is now picked by not only human workers but also “metalworkers”—tea-picking robots!
At the end of March, Hangzhou welcomed its busy season of large-scale harvesting of West Lake Longjing tea. In one teagarden, a smart tea-picking robot developed by Zhejiang Sci-tech University made its first showing after five years of research and development.
With a pull and a suck(吸) , the robotic arm separates the buds(芽) from the branches and then puts them into a temporary storage box. “The robot learned its skills through a recognition model that offers it a large amount of tea bud image data,” said Chen Jianneng, one of the researchers. This allows the robot to automatically identify tea buds with a success rate of over 90 percent, Chen added.
Yet the robot’s efficiency(效率) needs improvement before it can be used on a wider scale. According to Professor Wu Chuanyu, leader of the research team, the robot can currently only perform the work of 1.5 workers. It would need to do the work of 5 workers for it to be possible on a larger scale. Additionally, the robot can now only be used on flat terrain(地形), not on more complex surfaces such as mountains. It may take five to ten years to realize these goals, Wu told China News.
Tea planting and processing are also transformed to become “smarter”. For example, there are special lamps that can attract pests but will not hurt other “friendly” insects. This equipment can operate 24-7, using color panels(面板) and lights to draw pests in day and night and then kill them with an electric grid(电网) .
In terms of tea roasting(炒制), although machine-roasted tea is quite widespread, many tea enthusiasts s argue that this method lacks the real flavor of tea made by hand-roasting. Researchers at Zhejiang University are trying to measure the subtle differences between the two methods to improve machine performance. They’re researching AI technologies to enable them to gain data and make adjustments to roasting methods and temperatures in real time.
46. According to the passage, how does the tea-picking robot identify tea buds?
A. With special lighting. B. With human guidance.
C. By using bud-detecting sensors. D. By using image recognition technology.
47. What is one of the tea-picking robot’s current limitations mentioned by Professor Wu Chuanyu?
A. It can’t store tea buds after picking them.
B. It has low efficiency for large-stale use.
C. It’s designed to work on mountains.
D. It operates with limited image data.
48. The special feature of the lamps used in tea planting is that .
A. they work only on flat terrain.
B. they use solar power for energy.
C. they roast tea leaves while attracting pests.
D. they attract pests without harming other “friendly” insects.
49. What is the goal of the researchers at Zhejiang University regarding tea roasting?
A. To show the advantage of machine roasting.
B. To improve machine-roasting performance.
C. To invent a new roasting method.
D To give up hand-roasting.
50. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The development and challenges of a tea-picking robot.
B. The improvement of machine-roasted tea flavor.
C. The history of tea farming in Zhejiang.
D. The limitation of tea-picking robots.

阅读下面短文,按照要求完成阅读任务。
The legendary charity runner Rosie Swale Pope has jogged (慢跑) her way across Europe to Istanbul, Turkey, as she continues her 6,000-mile journey from Brighton in the U.K. to Kathmandu in Nepal. The 73-year-old took on the challenge in an effort to raise support to improve health, education and living of local communities in Nepal, which was destroyed by a destructive earthquake in 2015.
“It is not about just giving people food. It is about helping these talented people to grow their own food,” she said as she jogged by the Blue Mosque and the Hagia Sophia, the top tourist attractions in Istanbul.
Pope, from Tenby, Wales, began her journey to Kathmandu from Brighton, a town on the English Channel, in July 2018. Turkey is the 13th country she’s jogged through. The Republic of Georgia is next on her itinerary.
“I never know where I sleep every night. I sleep in fields. I sleep in the streets. I get up and run. I meet people I would never meet any other way,” she said. She transports her belongings in a bright red cart (手推车) that she drags behind her while she runs.
Recognized as one of the world’s longest solo runners, she ran around the world in 2004 to raise money for charity, and in 2015 she ran across the United States — from New York to San Francisco — to honor her late husband, Clive, who died from prostate cancer.
Her adventures also include sailing alone from the U.K. to the U.S. in a 17-foot boat. She described herself as “just an ordinary person, and I am old,” but she’s made special connections all over the world. “I meet people I would never meet any other way and actually it is a way of giving more to life because I have more. You don’t go out and you don’t wait for the world to come to you,” she said.
66. What’s the purpose of Pope’s jogging from Brighton to Kathmandu? (no more than 15 words)
67. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 3 probably mean? (1 word)
68. How does Pope bring her belongings when she jogs? (no more than 10 words)

6. Over the years, people have learned from ants that teamwork and hard work are two key ________ to success.
A. functions B. elements C. impacts D. features

【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:这些梯田为当地人提供了完美的生存环境,他们大多数人以营养丰富的农作物为生。分析句子,“most _____feed on nutritious crops”为非限制性定语从句,先行词是local people,most of...表示“……中的大多数”,先行词指人,在从句中作介词of的宾语,所以用of whom引导定语从句。故选B项。
11. The number of monarch butterflies reached a new high and ________ around that level ever since.
A. are remaining B. have remained C. is remaining D. has remained
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查时态和主谓一致。句意:黑脉金斑蝶的数量达到了一个新的高度,并且从那以后一直保持在这个水平。根据“ever since”可知,句子应用现在完成时,表示从过去某个时间开始一直持续到现在的动作或状态,且该动作可能还会继续下去。“The number of...”表示“……的数量”,作主语时,谓语动词用单数形式,所以此处应用has remained。故填D。
12. The giant panda reserve park, ________ in the 1960s, has played a key role in protecting this endangered species.
A. found B. founding C. founded D. to be founded
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:大熊猫保护区建于20世纪60年代,在保护这一濒危物种方面发挥了关键作用。分析句子结构可知,此处为非谓语动词作定语修饰“The giant panda reserve park”,且“The giant panda reserve park”与found之间为被动关系,所以此处应用过去分词形式作后置定语,表示被动和完成。故填C。
13. The most common natural source ________ natural dyes come is plants.
A. from which B. of which C. by which D. to which
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:天然染料最常见的天然来源是植物。“________ natural dyes come”是定语从句,修饰先行词source,come from是固定短语,意为“来自”,表示染料来源,先行词指物,在从句中作come from的宾语,所以用from which引导定语从句。故选A项。
14. More and more people choose to shop in a supermarket as it offers a great ________ of goods.
A. destiny B. quality C. dynasty D. variety
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意:越来越多的人选择在超市购物,因为超市提供各种各样的商品。A. destiny命运;B. quality质量;C. dynasty朝代;D. variety多种多样。根据“More and more people choose to shop in a supermarket”可知,人们选择在超市购物是因为超市商品种类多,a great variety of表示“各种各样的”,符合语境。故选D。

The turning point of my life was my decision to give up a promising business career and study music. My parents, although sympathetic, and sharing my love of music, disapproved of it as a profession. This was understandable in view of the family background. My grandfather had taught music for nearly forty years. Though much beloved and respected in the community, he earned barely enough to provide for his large family. As a consequence of this example in the family, the very mention of music as a profession carried with it a picture of a risky existence with uncertain financial rewards. My parents insisted on college instead of a music school, and to college I went-quite happily, as I remember, for although I loved my violin and spent most of my spare time practicing, I had many other interests.
Before my graduation from college, the family met with severe financial reverses and I felt it my duty to leave college and take a job. Thus was I launched upon a business career—which I always think of as the wasted years. Now I do not for a moment mean to disparage (贬低) business. My whole point is that it was not for me. I went into it for money, and aside from the satisfaction of being able to help the family, money is all I got out of it. It was not enough. I felt that life was passing me by.
I continued to make money, and finally, bit by bit, accumulated enough to enable me to go abroad to study music. I resigned from my position and, feeling like a man released from jail, sailed for Europe. I stayed four years, worked harder than I had ever dreamed of working before and enjoyed every minute of it. “Enjoyed” is too mild a word. I walked on air. I really lived. I was a free man and I was doing what I loved to do and what I was meant to do.
If I had stayed in business, I might be a comparatively wealthy man today, but I do not believe I would have made a success of living. I would have given up all those inner satisfactions that money can never buy.
41. The writer’s parents didn’t want him to take a music career mainly because .
A. the writer didn’t show much talent in playing music
B. college was a much better option than a music school
C. it seemed an unstable and financially-challenged profession
D. the living conditions of the writer’s parents weren’t good enough
42. What can be learned about the writer’s experience of college?
A. The writer enjoyed the fruitful college life
B. The writer dropped out before graduation.
C. The writer kept playing the violin every day.
D. The writer went to college unwillingly.
43. What was the most important thing the writer achieved from his business career?
A. A sense of belonging
B. A considerable fortune
C. The satisfaction of helping others
D. The pride of being a wealthy man.
44 What does the underlined sentence I walked on air. in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. I was interviewed by a broadcaster. B. My music was alive on broadcast.
C. I felt very relaxed indeed D. I was extremely excited
45. What message does the passage mainly convey?

Spring is the season to harvest West Lake Longjing tea, which is now picked by not only human workers but also “metalworkers”—tea-picking robots!
At the end of March, Hangzhou welcomed its busy season of large-scale harvesting of West Lake Longjing tea. In one teagarden, a smart tea-picking robot developed by Zhejiang Sci-tech University made its first showing after five years of research and development.
With a pull and a suck(吸) , the robotic arm separates the buds(芽) from the branches and then puts them into a temporary storage box. “The robot learned its skills through a recognition model that offers it a large amount of tea bud image data,” said Chen Jianneng, one of the researchers. This allows the robot to automatically identify tea buds with a success rate of over 90 percent, Chen added.
Yet the robot’s efficiency(效率) needs improvement before it can be used on a wider scale. According to Professor Wu Chuanyu, leader of the research team, the robot can currently only perform the work of 1.5 workers. It would need to do the work of 5 workers for it to be possible on a larger scale. Additionally, the robot can now only be used on flat terrain(地形), not on more complex surfaces such as mountains. It may take five to ten years to realize these goals, Wu told China News.
Tea planting and processing are also transformed to become “smarter”. For example, there are special lamps that can attract pests but will not hurt other “friendly” insects. This equipment can operate 24-7, using color panels(面板) and lights to draw pests in day and night and then kill them with an electric grid(电网) .
In terms of tea roasting(炒制), although machine-roasted tea is quite widespread, many tea enthusiasts s argue that this method lacks the real flavor of tea made by hand-roasting. Researchers at Zhejiang University are trying to measure the subtle differences between the two methods to improve machine performance. They’re researching AI technologies to enable them to gain data and make adjustments to roasting methods and temperatures in real time.
46. According to the passage, how does the tea-picking robot identify tea buds?
A. With special lighting. B. With human guidance.
C. By using bud-detecting sensors. D. By using image recognition technology.
47. What is one of the tea-picking robot’s current limitations mentioned by Professor Wu Chuanyu?
A. It can’t store tea buds after picking them.
B. It has low efficiency for large-stale use.
C. It’s designed to work on mountains.
D. It operates with limited image data.
48. The special feature of the lamps used in tea planting is that .
A. they work only on flat terrain.
B. they use solar power for energy.
C. they roast tea leaves while attracting pests.
D. they attract pests without harming other “friendly” insects.
49. What is the goal of the researchers at Zhejiang University regarding tea roasting?
A. To show the advantage of machine roasting.
B. To improve machine-roasting performance.
C. To invent a new roasting method.
D To give up hand-roasting.
50. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The development and challenges of a tea-picking robot.
B. The improvement of machine-roasted tea flavor.
C. The history of tea farming in Zhejiang.
D. The limitation of tea-picking robots.

阅读下面短文,按照要求完成阅读任务。
The legendary charity runner Rosie Swale Pope has jogged (慢跑) her way across Europe to Istanbul, Turkey, as she continues her 6,000-mile journey from Brighton in the U.K. to Kathmandu in Nepal. The 73-year-old took on the challenge in an effort to raise support to improve health, education and living of local communities in Nepal, which was destroyed by a destructive earthquake in 2015.
“It is not about just giving people food. It is about helping these talented people to grow their own food,” she said as she jogged by the Blue Mosque and the Hagia Sophia, the top tourist attractions in Istanbul.
Pope, from Tenby, Wales, began her journey to Kathmandu from Brighton, a town on the English Channel, in July 2018. Turkey is the 13th country she’s jogged through. The Republic of Georgia is next on her itinerary.
“I never know where I sleep every night. I sleep in fields. I sleep in the streets. I get up and run. I meet people I would never meet any other way,” she said. She transports her belongings in a bright red cart (手推车) that she drags behind her while she runs.
Recognized as one of the world’s longest solo runners, she ran around the world in 2004 to raise money for charity, and in 2015 she ran across the United States — from New York to San Francisco — to honor her late husband, Clive, who died from prostate cancer.
Her adventures also include sailing alone from the U.K. to the U.S. in a 17-foot boat. She described herself as “just an ordinary person, and I am old,” but she’s made special connections all over the world. “I meet people I would never meet any other way and actually it is a way of giving more to life because I have more. You don’t go out and you don’t wait for the world to come to you,” she said.

67. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 3 probably mean? (1 word)
68. How does Pope bring her belongings when she jogs? (no more than 10 words)
69. What did Pope do in 2015? (no more than 15 words)

【答案】
Dear foreign friends,
I’d like to express my warm welcome to all of you for coming to our school to have the discussion on how we Chinese have lived in harmony with nature and how to build a creative green campus.
Longji Rice Terraces, which are situated in Guangxi Province, are a splendid example of how humans can coexist peacefully with nature. The terraces were built by local people centuries ago to make the most of the mountainous terrain for farming, which has not only prevented soil erosion but also created a breathtaking view. To build a green campus, we have two creative ideas. One is to create campus corner gardens where students can plant flowers and vegetables, learning about nature while beautifying our school. The other is to set up a recycling station for second-hand books, which I believe will promote resource sharing and reduce waste.
I’m curious about what measures your school has taken in this respect.
Looking forward to your response!
