Carmella Parry has lived in her fourth-floor walk-up in Gramercy Park for over 70 years.At 94, she hasn't been able to leave her home.Her sisters Tessie and Yolanda, also in their 90s, live just a few blocks away, but like tens of thousands of older New Yorkers, they just aren't able to get out anymore.But Ms.Parry is a little pleased today as she tells some guests how she likes to write a few poems for her sisters now and then.She'll recite (朗诵) them over the phone, since the sisters do talk every day.
She keeps a lot of handwritten poems in a box.And a few months ago, she received a poem,“Luck”by Langston Hughes, printed on a card that was put into one of her Citymeals on Wheels deliveries.
The poem,which Ms.Parry posted on her refrigerator,is part of Poems on Wheels, a partnership between the Poetry Society of America and Citymeals on Wheels, which delivers poems along with meals to older New Yorkers.The poem cards offer relief from the social isolation (孤独) that many of the city's homebound seniors experience.
Citymeals delivers more than 2 million meals a year to 18,000 of New York's seniors.The program delivers meals on weekends and holidays, when the city does not provide meals.After helping to start New York's Poems on Wheels in the fall of 2018, the poetry society partnered with other Meals on Wheels members in Los Angeles last October, which reach 2,200 people each month, and plans to start another partnership in San Francisco later this winter, which will reach 3,500 people at least four times a year.
“I'm very moved when I carry out meal deliveries,”says Beth Shapiro, Director of Citymeals on Wheels.“They have outlived family, so a meal coming to the door is very important.But so is the visit.So, seeing a poem that we sent on their refrigerator, or taped to a wall, is just confirmation of the value of not only the food we bring, but the caring that we do as well—it is a true lifeline for so many.”
【语篇解读】 本文是新闻报道。Poems on Wheels机构在为老年人送去食物的同时为他们提供文学乐趣及心灵慰藉。

B.She hardly remembers her poems.
C.She enjoys great popularity among poets.
D.She lives a joyful life together with her sisters.
A 推理判断题。根据第一段中的But Ms.Parry is a little pleased today...She'll recite them over the phone及第二段中的She keeps a lot of handwritten poems in a box可知,Ms.Parry非常珍爱诗歌,她不仅在跟姐妹打电话时给她们朗诵诗歌,还在盒子里珍藏了许多手写的诗歌。
5.What purpose does Poems on Wheels serve?
A.To educate older New Yorkers.
B.To take good care of the disabled.
C.To deliver literary delight to lonely seniors.
D.To settle cultural differences among New Yorkers.

6.What do the numbers mentioned in Paragraph 4 show about Poems on Wheels?
A.It is little known.
B.It is expanding gradually.
C.It will center on the young.
D.It will offer meals on weekdays.
B 推理判断题。根据第四段中的After helping to start New York's Poems on Wheels in the fall of 2018...reach 3,500 people at least four times a year可知,Poems on Wheels近几年开始在很多城市开展服务,覆盖面积更广,服务人群更多。
7.What can we infer from Ms.Shapiro's words?
A.A little is better than none.
B.A small act of kindness means a lot.
C.Where there is a will, there is a way.
D.Those who always try new things laugh last.
B 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的so a meal coming to the door is very important...it is a true lifeline for so many可知,Ms.Shapiro认为他们为老年人送去食物和诗歌的行为对老年人来说很重要,他们小小的善举可以说是老年人的生命线,意义非凡。
C
Boredom is something to experience.If kids don't figure this out early on, they're in for an unpleasant surprise.School, let's face it, can be dull (枯燥的), and it isn't actually the teacher's job to entertain as well as educate.
In a much-read story,The Relentlessness of Modern Parenting, Claire Cain Miller referred to a recent study that found that regardless of class, income or race, parents believed that“children who were bored after school should take part in extracurricular (课外的) activities, and that parents who were busy should stop their task and draw with their children if asked.”
Parents preparing for a long car ride are like army officers planning a complex land maneuver (演习) with the help of games and movies played on iPads and smartphones.What did parents in the 1970s do when kids were bored? Nothing! They let them breathe in gas fumes.And since it wasn't actually for wearing, play with the broken safety belt.If you complained about being bored back then, you were really asking for it.“Clean your room,”you might get.Was this fun? No.Was it helpful? Yes.
Because things happen when you're bored.Some of the most boring jobs I've had were also the most creative.While checking out food at the supermarket, I invented stories about people's purchases (购买之物).The man buying eggplant and a six-pack of beer at 9 p.m.: Which was the must-get thing and which the impulse (冲动) purchase? How did my former fifth-grade teacher feel about my observing her weekly purchase of cookies?
The ability to handle boredom, not surprisingly, is associated with the ability to focus.Research has shown that people with attention disorders are particularly poor in handling boredom.
It's especially important that kids get bored—and be allowed to stay bored—when they're young.It shouldn't be considered“a problem”to be avoided or removed by the higher-ups, but instead something kids handle on their own.We've stopped training children to do this.Rather than teach them to understand material that is duller, teachers spend more time inventing ways to“attract”students.But surely teaching children to stand boredom will prepare them for a more realistic future.
【语篇解读】 本文是议论文。作者认为不能一味让孩子去追求所谓的乐趣,而应该让他们学会面对单调乏味的事情。
8.What is the finding of the study mentioned by Claire Cain Miller?
A.School kids find it hard to stand boredom.
B.People are too busy to draw with their kids.
C.Extracurricular activities are gaining popularity.
D.Parents are trying their best to make their kids have fun.
D 细节理解题。根据第二段中的parents believed that...who were busy should stop their task and draw with their children if asked可知,这项研究发现,父母认为为了避免孩子放学后感到无聊就应该让他们参加课外活动,而且父母不管多忙,只要孩子一声令下就应该停下手头的工作和他们一起画画。由此可见,父母在竭尽全力让孩子快乐。
9.What did parents in the 1970s usually do when kids were bored on a long car ride?
A.They played with them.
B.They left them alone.
C.They told them about famous movies.
D.They asked them to pay attention to safety.
B 细节理解题。根据第三段中的Nothing! They let them breathe in gas fumes.And since it wasn't actually for wearing, play with the broken safety belt可知,在20世纪70年代,在长途旅行时,孩子得学会自己应对无聊和寂寞,因为那时的父母不会像现在的父母一样去想法子给他们解闷。
10.Why does the author share her experience at the supermarket?
A.To show customers' purchasing habits.
B.To show what a difficult life she was living.
C.To show boredom and jobs go hand in hand.
D.To show the link between boredom and creativity.
D 推理判断题。根据第四段中的Some of the most boring jobs I've had were also the most creative可知,作者在超市闲逛时却意外创作了与购物相关的故事,他拿自己在超市的例子举例是为了说明无聊与创造力之间的关系。
11.What would be the best title for the text?
A.Kids have enough fun
B.Life is a boring journey
C.Let kids get bored again
D.Turn boredom into entertainment
C 标题归纳题。根据最后一段中的It's especially important that kids get bored...when they're young和We've stopped training children to do this及But surely teaching children to stand boredom will prepare them for a more realistic future可知,现在的父母和老师都在想办法让孩子避免无聊,但是无聊对个人发展有利,所以应该让孩子重新去学习面对无聊。C项符合文章主旨,适合作标题。
D
If one more person talks about the benefits of mindfulness, I will throw cabbage at them.Just kidding.But I do have lots of cabbage happily rotting away in my kitchen thanks to the wellness obsession(着迷)that failed to keep my attention.This is a symptom of a phenomenon known as“wellness tiredness”.
Wellness is seriously big business with a worth of $3.72 trillion and a healthy annual growth of 14 percent.To satisfy this consuming desire, brands of super foods and various exercise classes crowd in.“The problem with all this constantly changing information on what to eat or which exercise class to take is that people begin to form distorted(扭曲的)mindsets towards the idea of a healthy lifestyle,”explains Dr.Bijal, a psychologist at Nightingale Hospital.“The least harmful result of a distorted mindset will be confusion.The most harmful would be serious physical and mental disorders like extreme dieting or over-exercising.”
It's little wonder that many people are beginning to reject the idea of wellness and the lifestyle it advocates.“I can't tell you the number of wellness accounts I've unfollowed on Instagram,”one fitness-enthusiast friend tells me.When I ask her why, she tells me that the public pursuit(追求)of wellness has reached“the eye-roll stage”.Meanwhile, sales of fitness trackers and wearable wellness things have dropped sharply.
Speaking of gym culture, which offers classes like Hula Hoop and Yoga, it's also beginning to show signs that people are returning to more conventional forms of exercise, some that wouldn't look out of place on a school timetable.
The whole point of wellness is that it should become such an everyday thing that you forget about seeking it.Living a healthy lifestyle becomes a given rather than something singled out as impressive and worth applauding.Now, more people are starting to cycle to and from work,swim on lunch breaks and even try to buy old school exercise bikes.
【语篇解读】 这是一篇说明文。文章指出, 人们对健康的追求俨然成了一桩大生意。为了满足人们健康消费的欲望, 各种品牌的超级食品和健身班蜂拥而入。由此也导致了“健康疲劳”。人们开始对健康生活方式的想法形成了扭曲的心态。这种现象不仅对人们健康生活有影响,而且有害。作者建议人们将健康当作一件日常的事情。
12.What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?
A.The wellness business costs people a great deal of money.
B.People are faced with too many food and exercise choices.
C.Distorted mindsets to wellness cause harmful consequences.
D.The wellness industry has been developing at a steady speed.
C 主旨大意题。根据第二段中南丁格尔医院的Bijal医生所做的解释中The problem with all this constantly changing information on what to eat or which exercise class to take is that people begin to form distorted mindsets towards the idea of a healthy lifestyle,及The least harmful result of a distorted mindset will be confusion.The most harmful would be serious physical and mental disorders like extreme dieting or over-exercising.可知,第二段主要讲的是扭曲的健康心态所造成的有害后果。故选C。
13.Why is the author's friend mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A.To inform us wearable wellness things are not popular.
B.To advocate the idea of wellness and a healthy lifestyle.
C.To tell us that online wellness accounts are hard to follow.
D.To show the public's unfavorable attitude to wellness obsession.
D 推理判断题。由第三段中的It's little wonder that many people are beginning to reject the idea of wellness and the lifestyle it advocates.“I can't tell you the number of wellness accounts I've unfollowed on Instagram, ”one fitness-enthusiast friend tells me.When I ask her why,she tells me that the public pursuit of wellness has reached“the eye-roll stage”.可推知,在第三段提到作者的朋友是为了表明公众对那些所谓的健康理念的不满。故选D。
14.Why are people starting to return to traditional forms of exercise?
A.Sports such as cycling are more impressive.
B.People are treating wellness as an everyday thing.
C.Classes like Hula Hoop and Yoga are too expensive.
D.People have come to know wellness is not so necessary.
B 细节理解题。根据最后一段The whole point of wellness is that it should become such an everyday thing that you forget about seeking it.Living a healthy lifestyle becomes a given rather than something singled out as impressive and worth applauding.Now,more people are starting to cycle to and from work,swim on lunch breaks and even try to buy old school exercise bikes.可知,因为人们把健康当作一件日常的事情,人们正在回归传统的锻炼方式。故选B。
15.Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.The Importance of Living a Healthy Lifestyle
B.Are You Suffering from Wellness Tiredness?
C.The Benefits of Mindfulness in Wellness Industry
D.What is the Real Meaning of Wellness Obsession?
B 主旨大意题。作者指出,由于人们对健康的追求,各种品牌的超级食品和健身班蜂拥而入,由此也导致了“健康疲劳”现象,人们对健康生活方式的理念也形成扭曲的心态。作者指出,这种心态对人们健康生活不仅有影响,而且非常有害。因此作者建议人们将健康看作是一件平常的事情。B选项 Are You Suffering from Wellness Tiredness?符合文章最佳标题。故选B。
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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
When he was fourteen, his ambition was to run a pub, just like his dad. __16__ With a chain of restaurants, a number of popular television series and best-selling cookery books, Jamie Oliver is a well-known name in every UK household.I'm a huge“Jamie fan”.I admire his passion for improving the food we eat and helping people change their lives.
__17__ He took fifteen unemployed young people, with no previous experience of cooking, and trained them to be top-class chefs (厨师) in his restaurant, also called Fifteen.I remember one trainee, Lloyd Hayes.He left school with no qualifications and started getting into crime. __18__ I think it's this kind of success story that makes Jamie and his projects so special.
Another special project is Jamie's Ministry of Food which he started in 2008.There are two aims: firstly, to teach people how to cook healthy, affordable food instead of eating fast food; secondly, to set up the Pass It On scheme: encouraging each person to pass on a recipe they learned to four other people. __19__ Thousands of people have changed their cooking habits as a result—and I'm one of them.I've decided I'm not going to eat fast food anymore.
It's not only adults, but children, too.Jamie's School Dinners, one of Jamie's best-known projects, tried to improve food in schools and encourage children to eat well.It was difficult to convince some of the children, but in the end, many schools improved their menus. __20__
So, what's Jamie going to do next? Well, whatever it is, one thing is for sure, I'm not going to miss it!
A.And my children are going to eat their vegetables now.
B.I heard recently that she is going to teach people to cook.
C.Those four people then teach four more people, and so on.
D.I'm going to cook for my friends and take time to eat good food.
E.Jamie's first project, Fifteen, in 2002, aimed to help young people.
F.But in the last twenty years, chef Jamie Oliver has achieved far more.
G.But the project worked and Lloyd got a job as a chef in a top restaurant.
【语篇解读】 本文是记叙文。文章介绍了厨师Jamie Oliver的事迹以及他对我和家人的影响。
16.F 设空处和上文是转折关系。下文中的a chain of restaurants和F项中的chef相照应;F项中的Jamie Oliver在下一句中有原词复现。
17.E 设空处是该段的主题句,和下文是总分关系。由下一段中的Another special project is Jamie's Ministry of Food可知,该段同样介绍了由Jamie Oliver发起的项目。下文中的unemployed young people,trained them是E项中的help young people的具体体现。
18.G 设空处和上文是转折关系。上文中的with no qualifications and started getting into crime和G项中的the project worked and Lloyd got a job as a chef形成对比,用具体事例说明了Fifteen这个项目起到的积极作用。
19.C 设空处和上文是顺承关系。C项中的Those four people指代上文中的four other people。下文中的Thousands of people have changed是C项中teach four more people, and so on这个行为的结果。
20.A 纵观上文可知,每段结尾都有作者对厨师Jamie Oliver的评价或者自己的感悟,因此,为了保持篇章的完整性和协调性,设空处也应当描写了作者对这个项目的一些观点。A项中的my children,eat their vegetables now和上文中的It's not only adults, but children, too也相互照应。故A项符合语境。
第二部分 语言运用(共两节,满分30分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
Travel almost exhausted my savings this summer.
When I __21__ I had gone through all my credit card points, and my financial goal of saving 30% of my income wasn't __22__, with so much of my money being spent on plane tickets, hotels, and food, I said no to a __23__ who asked me to join him in Germany.
But my friend __24__ my tendency to say yes and asked me if I was sure I couldn't make it work. __25__, I thought about my priorities (优先的事项) and gave myself a daily allowance.
__26__ to live up to my self-made promise, I sat down to run the numbers.To make it through the rest of the month without breaking into my savings, I __27__ the maximum (最多的) amount I could spend.The __28__ was $30 aday, for about three weeks.
Competing with myself to __29__ the numbers turned out to be a surprisingly satisfying __30__.In the end, I stuck to my goal and finished the month with my __31__ on track.And I realized that a __32__ amount keeps me much closer to hitting my target budget (预算); the big monthly pot of money I used to imagine made it too __33__ to overspend, with the idea I'd make it up by __34__ less later in the month.By sticking to a day at a time, I was free from the __35__ that I would be out of cash at the end of the month.
And arriving inBerlin, free from a financial black cloud back home, made every apple pie even sweeter.
【语篇解读】 本文是记叙文。“我”给自己规定每天最多花30美元,这改变了“我”花钱的方式。
21.A.predicted B.imagined
C.realized D.expected
C 由该空后的I had gone through all my credit card points...with so much of my money being spent on plane tickets, hotels, and food可知,“我”“意识到(realized)”“我”把信用卡的积分都用完了。

C.working D.failing
B 由该空前的my financial goal of saving 30% of my income和该空后的with so much of my money being spent on plane tickets, hotels, and food可知,“我”把收入的30%存起来的目标没有“实现(happening)”。
23.A.friend B.traveler
C.stranger D.neighbor
A 由下文中的But my friend...my tendency to say yes可知,此处是指一个“朋友(friend)”邀“我”一起去德国,“我”拒绝了。
24.A.played jokes on B.took hold of
C.looked forward to D.took advantage of
D 由该空后的my tendency to say yes and asked me if I was sure I couldn't make it work以及下文的描述可知,此处指“我”的朋友“利用了(took advantage of)”“我”想一同去德国的心理。
25.A.Therefore B.However
C.Besides D.Instead
A 上下文之间是因果关系,故填“因此(Therefore)”。
26.A.Discouraged B.Determined
C.Afraid D.Unable

27.A.handed out B.picked out
C.figured out D.kept out
C 由该空后的the maximum amount I could spend可知,为了不动用储蓄坚持到月末,“我”“算出了(figured out)”自己能花销的最大金额。
28.A.total B.idea
C.extra D.answer
A 由上文中的I sat down to run the numbers和the maximum amount I could spend可知,“我”计算出的结果是每天最多花30美元,此处需要填入一个表示总额的词,A项total意为“总额”,符合此处语境。
29.A.relate to B.give up
C.stick to D.hold up
C 由上文中的To make it through the rest of the month without breaking into my savings和下文中的In the end, I stuck to my goal and finished the month可知,此处是指“我”“坚持(stick to)”每天最多花30美元。
30.A.business B.moment
C.project D.challenge
D 由上文中的Competing with myself to...the numbers以及下文中的In the end, I stuck to my goal and finished the month with my...on track可知,坚持履行诺言,每天最多花30美元,最后证明是令人满意的“挑战(challenge)”。
31.A.finances B.plans
C.incomes D.gains
A 由上文的描述以及设空处所在句I stuck to my goal and finished the month with my...on track可知,“我”实现了自己的目标,而且“财务(finances)”状况也重回正轨。
32.A.weekly B.monthly
C.yearly D.daily
D 由上文中的gave myself a daily allowance和The...was $30 aday可知,给自己定一个“每天的(daily)”花钱限额能让“我”更接近“我”的目标预算。此处daily与上文中的daily和a day是原词(同义词)复现,与下文中的monthly形成对比。
33.A.quick B.safe
C.easy D.good
C 由该句中的the big monthly pot of money和overspend以及with the idea I'd make it up...less later in the month可知,每月一大笔钱很“容易(easy)”让人超支,因为我们总想着会在这个月晚些时候少“花(spending)”点钱来弥补超支的部分。
34.A.wasting B.spending
C.saving D.losing
B 参见上一题解析
35.A.pain B.mistake
C.need D.worry
D 由该空后的I would be out of cash at the end of the month可知,这是“我”“担心(worry)”的事情。坚持每天定量花钱,“我”就不会担心月底会没钱了。

参考范文:
Dear_Editor,
Now,more and more students are getting fond of western fast food,and thus they take in too much sugar and fat.I don't think it good for their health.
There are all kinds of foods in the world.Which one is healthier,Chinese food or western fast food?Different people have different choices.
In my opinion,Chinese food is healthier.Firstly,Chinese food contains a lot of fruit and green vegetables.It is rich in fiber and low in sugar and fat.Secondly,Chinese food is very delicious and has many dishes.It is nice to taste.I think it is the healthiest food in the world.
Yours,

第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。续写的词数应为150左右。
A young man had bought an old house that was in bad shape,but he and his wife believed they could restore it.They immediately went to work.Their goal was to have the old building look best for the Christmas Eve gettogether.
Just two days before Christmas,however,a storm swept through the area,leaving a hole in the wall of the house.There was obviously no time to repair the damage before Christmas.The sad couple attended local auction (拍卖) that afternoon.One of the items put up for bids (竞标) was an old gold-and-ivory-colored tablecloth.Seized by an inspiration,the young man was the highest bidder at $6.50.His idea was to hang the cloth to cover the ragged hole.
On the day before Christmas,it was snowy.As the young man unlocked the house door,he noticed an old woman standing at the bus stop.He knew the bus wouldn't be there within at least half an hour,so he invited her inside to keep warm.
When the old woman walked in and saw the tablecloth,she rushed at it and said excitedly,“It's mine.It is my tablecloth.”She told the surprised man its history and even showed him her name in one corner of the tablecloth.She and her husband had once lived in Vienna,Austria,and their village was hit by a deadly disease.So they decided to flee to Switzerland,but her husband told her to leave first,saying he had something urgent to deal with.A few days later,it was reported that the bus her husband took fell off the cliff and he was never to be found.Her husband was believed to have died.Touched by her story,the young man asked about her address,planning to send the tablecloth to her after Christmas.As the bus came,she left.
When the Christmas Eve came,the man invited his friends to come to his house to enjoy the dinner together.In the candlelight of the Christmas Eve,the tablecloth looked even more beautiful.As the man's friends left the house,they thanked the man for his arrangement and mentioned how beautiful the house looked.

参考范文:
One older gentleman stayed,admiring the tablecloth.He said to the young man,“It's strange.Many years ago my wife used such a tablecloth only on very special occasions.But we lived in Vienna then.Where did you get this one?”sighed the old man,tears streaming down his cheeks.The young man told him what happened that day when he met an old lady.With the trembling old man at his side,he telephoned the family and decided to visit the old woman.
The young man drove the old man to that old woman's home.Together they knocked on her apartment door.When she opened it,the young man witnessed the tearful,joyful and thrilling reunion of husband and wife.If the chain of events had been broken,the husband and his wife might never have found each other.It was the tablecloth that made an extremely lucky ending.Love is like a journey,starting at forever and ending at never.
