A. left to hang B. left hanging C. left hung D. to leave hanging 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：当他回来时，他发现他挂在座位上的那个包不见了。 此处“he had…over the seat”是定语从句，修饰bag，表示“他之前把包挂在座位上”。leave sth. doing 表示“让某物处于某种状态”，因此用left hanging，意为“挂着”。 12. —________ Thomas ________ Kate for five years? —Yes, and they ________ a child two year ago. A. Has; married; had B. Has; been married to; had C. Did; marry; have had D. Did; get married to; have had 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——托马斯和凯特结婚已经五年了吗？——是的，而且他们两年前有了一个孩子。 考查现在完成时和一般过去时。get married to sb“和某人结婚”是一个瞬时性动词，延续性动词为be married to sb。根据“for five years”可知，时态是现在完成时，且与延续性动词连用，一般疑问句的结构是“Has/Have+主语+done”结构，主语Thomas是第三人称单数，助动词应用has；根据“two year ago”可知，答句用一般过去时，表示“有了”一个孩子，第三空应用had。故选B。 13. —One of the 24 solar terms——Grain in Ear is coming soon. —That’s true.

You should do it at once. —You’re right. ________. A. Actions speak louder than words B. No pain, no gain C. Practice makes perfect D. Failure is the mother of success 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——不要只谈论你的计划，你应该立刻行动。——你说得对。行动胜于言语。 Actions speak louder than words行动胜于言语；No pain, no gain没有付出就没有收获；Practice makes perfect熟能生巧；Failure is the mother of success失败是成功之母。根据“Don’t just talk about your plan. You should do it at once.”可知此处强调行动比空谈更重要，应填Actions speak louder than words。 15. —I’m so nervous about the coming exam. —________ You’ve prepared well. A. Take it easy. B. Hurry up. C. Help yourself.

In the report, scientists said rich countries had secured at least 4.2 billion doses of COVID-19 vaccines, warning that their stockpiling of the vaccine doses would result in a shortfall in poorer and middle-income countries for years to come. According to COVID-19 vaccine procurement data tracked by Duke Global Health Innovation Center, as of Feb 8, the US has bought more than l.2 billion doses to vaccinate its population twice; Canada has purchased enough doses to vaccinate its population five times; Germany has ordered enough doses to vaccinate its people more than two and a half times; and the UK has got more than three times than it needs to inoculate its whole population. Meanwhile, billions of individuals in low and middle-income countries around the world might not have access to COVID-19 vaccines in 2021, the report said, warning it could prolong the pandemic and raise the risk of further mutations of the virus so that current vaccines may not work in the future. The world now needs more doses of COVID-19 vaccines than of any other vaccine in history to inoculate enough people for global vaccine immunity, the report said. However, scarcity in supply coupled with large volumes of pre-orders made by rich countries creates challenges to achieving timely and universal access, it said. The World Health Organization has set up the COVID-19 Vaccine Global Access (COVAX) Facility, a global allocation (分配) mechanism to ensure equal access to the vaccines. But wealthy countries have simply chosen to bypass it and strike deals with vaccine developers by themselves. The COVID-19 pandemic is unlikely to end until all countries can access the vaccines and achieve global herd immunity, the report said. None of us is safe until all of us are safe. Unless vaccines are distributed more equitably, it could be years before the coronavirus is brought under control at a global level. 38. How many countries mentioned above have purchased enough vaccine doses to vaccinate their populations more than three times? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 39. Which of the following is TRUE about the COVID-19 vaccine allocation? A. In rich countries, all the people can get COVID-19 vaccines for free. B. There are only about 4.2 billion doses of COVID-19 vaccines for low and middle-income countries. C. COVAX aims to make sure that all the countries in the world have equal access to the vaccines. D. Rich countries have preordered all the vaccines so that there are few vaccines left for poor countries. 40. What does the word mutations mean in the passage? A. Spread. B. Changes. C. Infections. D. Detection. 41. According to the passage, what is the bad effect of unequal allocation of COVID-19 vaccines? A. The pandemic will last longer in the future. B. Poor countries will have no access to vaccines. C. The whole world will be infected. D. More countries will choose to bypass COVAX. 【答案】38. A 39. C 40. B 41. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要分析了全球新冠疫苗分配不公的问题。报告指出，占全球人口16%的高收入国家已抢购了2021年至少70%的疫苗剂量，导致中低收入国家疫苗短缺，可能延长疫情并增加病毒变异风险。 【38题详解】 第三段明确列出各国购买疫苗情况：“Canada has purchased enough doses to vaccinate its population five times; ... the UK has got more than three times than it needs to inoculate its whole population.” 加拿大（5倍）和英国（3倍以上）两个国家购买的疫苗剂量足以接种其人口三倍以上。 【39题详解】 第六段指出：“The World Health Organization has set up the COVID-19 Vaccine Global Access (COVAX) Facility, a global allocation mechanism to ensure equal access to the vaccines.” 说明COVAX的目标是确保全球所有国家都能平等获得疫苗。 【40题详解】 第四段指出：“it could prolong the pandemic and raise the risk of further mutations of the virus so that current vaccine may not work in the future.” 结合语境，病毒发生“变异”可能导致现有疫苗失效，因此“mutations”意为“变化/变异”。 【41题详解】 第四段明确指出：“it could prolong the pandemic and raise the risk of further mutations of the virus”，最后一段又指出：“it could be years before the coronavirus is brought under control at a global level.” 说明疫苗分配不公的坏处是疫情将持续更长时间。 D 阅读材料，然后从各题所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。 To help Japanese companies better deal with the increasing number of foreigners visiting the country, Panasonic has created a megaphone (扩音器) which is able to smartly translate Japanese into English, Chinese and Korean. Panasonic named the product "Megahonyaku". It is a term for the Japanese words for "megaphone" and "translate", which actually makes g lot of sense because it's a megaphone that can translate Japanese into several other languages in real time. When a user speaks Japanese into the megaphone, it recognizes (辨认) and translates what is being said immediately, and outputs the words in English, Chinese or Korean. It sounds amazing, and seeing it in action is wonderful, but Megahonyaku is not good enough. It cannot translate everything you say, as it only stores 300 common expressions, like "The train has been put off" or "Watch your step". However, the Japanese company behind Megahonyaku promises to add new expressions regularly, which users can get on the Internet. The machine was designed to be used in places like transport stations, airports and places of interest where quick and exact announcements are needed most. Around 30 Japanese organizations, including the police and guides, have been trying out Megahonyaku for about one year, but Panasonic says it will come onto the market on December 20th. Instead of selling these speech translators, Panasonic plans on renting (出租) them out for less than $183 a month on a three-year agreement, and offering users future improvements and necessary services. Panasonic has also said that it may add support for other languages, like Russian, depending on customers' needs. Megahonyaku also includes a touch screen that allows users to choose the language they need their speech translated into. 42. Panasonic has produced Megahonyaku so that ________. A. guides can translate Chinese into Japanese faster B. Japanese companies can receive foreigners better C. foreigners can talk with the Japanese freely D. the Japanese can learn other languages easily 43. The third paragraph is mainly about the ________ of Megahonyaku. A. invention B. importance C. disadvantage D. history 44. It can be learnt from Paragraph 4 that Megahonyaku ________. A. may be popular with the police B. is widely used in private homes C. will be sold on December 20th D. stores about 30 foreign languages 45. According to the passage, Panasonic will ________ in the future. A. sell Megahonyaku to foreign visitors B. bring down the price of Megahonyaku C. change the screen of Megahonyaku D. improve Megahonyaku regularly 【答案】42. B 43. C 44. A 45.

You’re only allowed to save one thing. Your family and pets are safe, so don’t worry about them. What is the most important thing you want to save? It can be anything in any size.” Linda Sue Park wrote a book called The One Thing You’d Save. In it, a teacher named Ms Chang invites her students to think of the question above. She wants to challenge her class to name the most important thing to them. Some students know the answer right away. Others come to their decisions much more slowly. And some students finally change their minds when they hear their classmates’ answers. As for the answers, some choose baseball cards or toy animals. One student among them picks a sweater that has been passed down in his family for generations (几代人). Another student chooses a box which holds a lot of memories of his childhood. Even Ms Chang shares with the students her own choice in the end. It is a really thought-provoking (引人深思的) question. As the students are trying to answer it, they discover more about one another and also about themselves. The book is a collection of poems. The writer tells the story through narrative (故事体的) poems. What makes the book so popular is that it leads people to think deeply. The book uses black-and-white pictures to show the objects the students choose. When seeing the pictures, the readers may think of scenes of their homes, the classroom, the communities they live in and more. The pictures offer wordless moments that encourage readers to think more before they move on. Want to know what matters most to the students? Please read this book. 66. What does Ms Chang ask her class to do? _____________________________________ 67. Why is the book The One Thing You’d Save popular? _____________________________________ 68. How does the book show the objects the students choose? _____________________________________ 69. What’s the purpose of the passage? _____________________________________ 70. What would you save in that situation and why? _____________________________________ 【答案】66. To name the most important thing to them. 67. Because it leads people to think deeply. 68. By using black-and-white pictures. 69. To introduce the book to readers. 70. I would save my photo album. Because it holds all my sweet memories. 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了书籍The One Thing You’d Save，讲述了常老师通过提问引导学生思考生命中最重要的事物，介绍了该书的形式、特点及价值，旨在向读者推荐这本书。 【66题详解】 原文第二段提到“a teacher named Ms Chang invites her students to think of the question above.

C Some high-income countries, representing 16 percent of the global population, have snapped up at least 70 percent of COVID-19 vaccine (疫苗) doses available in 2021, according to a report published in the medical journal the Lancet on Friday. In the report, scientists said rich countries had secured at least 4.2 billion doses of COVID-19 vaccines, warning that their stockpiling of the vaccine doses would result in a shortfall in poorer and middle-income countries for years to come. According to COVID-19 vaccine procurement data tracked by Duke Global Health Innovation Center, as of Feb 8, the US has bought more than l.2 billion doses to vaccinate its population twice; Canada has purchased enough doses to vaccinate its population five times; Germany has ordered enough doses to vaccinate its people more than two and a half times; and the UK has got more than three times than it needs to inoculate its whole population. Meanwhile, billions of individuals in low and middle-income countries around the world might not have access to COVID-19 vaccines in 2021, the report said, warning it could prolong the pandemic and raise the risk of further mutations of the virus so that current vaccines may not work in the future. The world now needs more doses of COVID-19 vaccines than of any other vaccine in history to inoculate enough people for global vaccine immunity, the report said. However, scarcity in supply coupled with large volumes of pre-orders made by rich countries creates challenges to achieving timely and universal access, it said. The World Health Organization has set up the COVID-19 Vaccine Global Access (COVAX) Facility, a global allocation (分配) mechanism to ensure equal access to the vaccines. But wealthy countries have simply chosen to bypass it and strike deals with vaccine developers by themselves. The COVID-19 pandemic is unlikely to end until all countries can access the vaccines and achieve global herd immunity, the report said. None of us is safe until all of us are safe. Unless vaccines are distributed more equitably, it could be years before the coronavirus is brought under control at a global level. 38. How many countries mentioned above have purchased enough vaccine doses to vaccinate their populations more than three times? A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five. 39. Which of the following is TRUE about the COVID-19 vaccine allocation? A. In rich countries, all the people can get COVID-19 vaccines for free. B. There are only about 4.2 billion doses of COVID-19 vaccines for low and middle-income countries. C. COVAX aims to make sure that all the countries in the world have equal access to the vaccines. D. Rich countries have preordered all the vaccines so that there are few vaccines left for poor countries. 40. What does the word mutations mean in the passage? A. Spread. B. Changes. C. Infections. D. Detection. 41. According to the passage, what is the bad effect of unequal allocation of COVID-19 vaccines? A. The pandemic will last longer in the future. B. Poor countries will have no access to vaccines. C. The whole world will be infected. D. More countries will choose to bypass COVAX. D 阅读材料，然后从各题所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。 To help Japanese companies better deal with the increasing number of foreigners visiting the country, Panasonic has created a megaphone (扩音器) which is able to smartly translate Japanese into English, Chinese and Korean. Panasonic named the product "Megahonyaku". It is a term for the Japanese words for "megaphone" and "translate", which actually makes g lot of sense because it's a megaphone that can translate Japanese into several other languages in real time. When a user speaks Japanese into the megaphone, it recognizes (辨认) and translates what is being said immediately, and outputs the words in English, Chinese or Korean. It sounds amazing, and seeing it in action is wonderful, but Megahonyaku is not good enough. It cannot translate everything you say, as it only stores 300 common expressions, like "The train has been put off" or "Watch your step".

You’re only allowed to save one thing. Your family and pets are safe, so don’t worry about them. What is the most important thing you want to save? It can be anything in any size.” Linda Sue Park wrote a book called The One Thing You’d Save. In it, a teacher named Ms Chang invites her students to think of the question above. She wants to challenge her class to name the most important thing to them. Some students know the answer right away. Others come to their decisions much more slowly. And some students finally change their minds when they hear their classmates’ answers. As for the answers, some choose baseball cards or toy animals. One student among them picks a sweater that has been passed down in his family for generations (几代人). Another student chooses a box which holds a lot of memories of his childhood. Even Ms Chang shares with the students her own choice in the end. It is a really thought-provoking (引人深思的) question. As the students are trying to answer it, they discover more about one another and also about themselves. The book is a collection of poems. The writer tells the story through narrative (故事体的) poems. What makes the book so popular is that it leads people to think deeply. The book uses black-and-white pictures to show the objects the students choose. When seeing the pictures, the readers may think of scenes of their homes, the classroom, the communities they live in and more. The pictures offer wordless moments that encourage readers to think more before they move on. Want to know what matters most to the students? Please read this book. 66.
