第一节(共10小题;每小题2.5分,满分25分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Some people learn a foreign language because they want to communicate with the local people. Some other people are just curious about foreign cultures. Whatever your reason may be, the best foreign language software around will certainly help you pick up the language in a few weeks. You will be able to speak fluently and understand the language clearly as well.
Tell Me More
This software is widely used in US schools, and it is believed to be the best foreign language learning software around the world. It offers instructions for learning Arabic, Chinese, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese and Spanish. However, the software does not come cheap as it costs around $ 250.
Talk Now
If you are looking for cheaper language learning software, then this is just the suitable choice for you. This software will cost you around $40, and even though it is not as useful as Tell Me More, it is still very good software for the purpose. The disadvantage is that there is a clear lack (缺少) of interactive (互动的) activities for users so it does not result in fluency.
Instant Immersion
This software supplies learning material for up to 35 different languages, and it is widely considered as the best software for learning Spanish as well. It will cost you around $ 30, and this is a very reasonable price for such a piece of highly recommended and loved language learning software. The learning courses are highly interactive, and the ever present speech recognition (语音识别) feature ensures that you are getting the pronunciation right when you speak.
Kid Speak
This is a kind of foreign language translation software that you can make use of, and it will cost you around $ 30. So it is safe to say that the level of performance will be similar to that of Talk Now. This software is designed more for children to use for interesting videos.
1. What can we know about learning a language from Paragraph 1?
A. Different people have different purposes. B. It is unnecessary to talk with the natives.
C. Understanding foreign cultures is the key. D. Using software is the most effective way.
2. What is the disadvantage of Tell Me More?
A. It has no interactive activities. B. It costs much more than the others.
C. It is short of language learning methods. D. It provides no interesting videos for children.
3. Which of the software best suits users with poor pronunciation?
A. Kid Speak. B. Tell Me More. C. Talk Now. D. Instant Immersion.
【答案】1. A 2. B 3. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了四款语言学习的软件。
【1题详解】
细节理解题, 根据第一段“Some people learn a foreign language because they want to communicate with the local people. Some other people are just curious about foreign cultures.(有些人学习外语是因为他们想要与当地人交流。还有一些人则是出于对外国文化的好奇而学习外语)”可知,人们学习外语出于各种原因,即出于不同的目的。故选A。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据Tell Me More部分“However, the software does not come cheap as it costs around $ 250.(然而,这款软件价格不菲,大约要250美元)”可知,Tell Me More的缺点是它比其他的贵很多。故选B。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据Instant Immersion部分“The learning courses are highly interactive, and the ever present speech recognition (语音识别) feature ensures that you are getting the pronunciation right when you speak.(这些学习课程具有很强的互动性,而且始终存在的语音识别功能能确保您在说话时的发音准确无误)”可知,Instant Immersion这款软件最适合发音不好的用户。故选D。
B
Every day as the sun rises, Ma Hongyi, a 66-year-old farmer, can be seen patrolling (巡逻) Yuncheng Salt Lake with his dog in Yuncheng city, North China’s Shanxi province.
Ma still remembers the day when he first saw two big pink birds walking through the water. “I had never seen such pretty birds. They were even taller than me, with long wings,” Ma recalls. He was later told that the birds were flamingos (火烈鸟), which were listed on the International Union for Protection of Nature’s red list of endangered species in 2013. From that day on, Ma started his second career as a volunteer to prevent human beings from interfering with the wildlife. “The birds are attracted by the good environment,” Ma says. “I will do my best to protect the lake so that birds can come here every year.”
Yuncheng Salt Lake covers an area of 132 square kilometres and used to serve as a salt production base. As the country began paying more attention to environmental protection, an ecological (生态的) protection and development centre was set up in 2012 to carry out regular ecological protection and restoration (修复) of the lake. “The greatest value of the Salt Lake lies in its ecology, which should be properly restored and protected,” says Chu Xianghao, mayor of the city. The lake area hosts 292 types of wild animals, along with 782 plant varieties, some of which are newly recorded species in the country.
After patrolling the lake as volunteer for over four years, Ma was paid by the local government to help with wildlife protection in 2019. “The lake’s ecology is getting better,” Ma says, adding that he looks forward to the arrival of the flamingos every year. “Some of them are my old friends,” he says.
4. Why does Ma patrol Yuncheng Salt Lake every day?
A. To observe the flamingos closely. B. To come across the flamingos again.
C. To serve as a keeper of the lake. D. To admire the scenery around the lake.
5. What does the underlined phrase “interfering with” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Sharing space with. B. Causing problems to.
C. Bringing benefits to. D. Losing control of.
6. Which word can best describe Ma?
A. Responsible. B. Creative. C. Honest. D. Humorous.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. A
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述了一位66岁的农民马红义自愿巡逻运城盐湖,保护火烈鸟等野生动物,并在当地政府的支持下成为野生动物保护员的故事。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段最后两句““The birds are attracted by the good environment,” Ma says. “I will do my best to protect the lake so that birds can come here every year.”(马红义说:“这些鸟是被这里良好的环境吸引来的,我会尽我所能保护这片湖泊,这样鸟儿们每年都能来这里。”)”可知,马红义每天巡逻盐湖为了保护湖泊,以吸引鸟儿们的到来。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段第四句“From that day on, Ma started his second career as a volunteer to prevent human beings from interfering with the wildlife.(从那天起,马红义开始了他的第二份职业,成为一名志愿者,以防止人类interfering with野生动物)”可知,马红义成为志愿者的目的是防止人类对野生动物做某事。结合常识,志愿者保护野生动物,应是防止人类“干扰”或“影响”到它们,即防止人类“给野生动物带来麻烦或问题”。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。文章第一段描述马红义每天日出时都会巡逻盐湖,第二段中提到他从第一次看到火烈鸟后就开始担任志愿者,第三段中写他作为志愿者巡逻四年多后被当地政府聘用继续从事野生动物保护工作,最后一段中他表示湖泊的生态正在变得更好,每年期待火烈鸟的到来,还称其中一些火烈鸟是“我的老朋友”。这些细节表明马红义对保护工作认真负责、持之以恒。选项A“Responsible.(负责任的)”最能概括他的品质。
C
After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.
Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, separate rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.
Every four-square-metre room provides a treadmill (跑步机), an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner, and users can let down the curtains (窗帘) for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. But there’s no shower.
Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code (二维码) for use. A refundable deposit (可退还的押金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes.
The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within several months since it was founded, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan. However, the idea of the shared fitness experience is not totally new. Last December, the company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings.
The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident people are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Centre published a report which says that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country’s GDP.
7. What makes the shared gym room different from the common one?
A. Sharing open spaces. B. Providing free training courses.
C. Holding one person at a time. D. Having some advanced equipment.
8. What do people need to do to use the shared gym room?
A. Pay 100 yuan first. B. Book a room ahead of time.
C. Have a shower before exercise. D. Let down curtains for privacy.
9. What is the author’s attitude towards China’s sharing economy?
A. Doubtful. B. Unclear. C. Worried. D. Positive.
10. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To introduce shared gym rooms. B. To praise a technology company.
C. To support the idea of sharing gym rooms. D. To tell the future of shared gym rooms.
【答案】7. C 8. B 9. D 10. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了在中国出现的新兴产业:共享健身房以及共享健身房的一些特点和使用方法和这个项目的创立过程等。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, separate rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.(与那些为众多会员提供宽敞公共空间供其同时使用的普通健身房不同,新建成的共享健身房房间则较小,是供个人使用的独立房间,通常设置在居民区附近)”可知,共享健身房不同于普通健身房,它一次容纳一个人。故选C。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code (二维码) for use.(与使用共享自行车类似,用户可以通过智能手机应用程序找到共享健身房的位置,提前预订房间,然后需要扫描二维码才能使用)”可知,人们需要提前预订房间才能使用共享健身房。故选B。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China.(共享经济在中国仍十分流行)”以及本段中作者引用国家信息中心的预测数据来证明自己的观点,共享经济在中国的发展前景很好。由此推知,作者对中国共享经济的态度是积极的。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,并根据第一段“After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.(在自行车和雨伞在全中国实现了共享使用之后,一些公司开始关注健身市场,于是共享健身房在北京市的街头也出现了)”可知,文章介绍了在中国出现的新兴产业:共享健身房以及共享健身房的一些特点和使用方法和这个项目的创立过程等。所以作者写这篇文章的目的是介绍共享健身房。故选A。

【11题详解】
根据下文“Every person has something they were born to do. You have a unique purpose for being here, and you have to find it. (每个人天生都有其使命。你存在于世有独特的目的,你必须找到它)”以及“Do a self-assessment (自我评估) to get closer to your truth, and closer to becoming the person you were meant to be. (进行自我评估,让你更接近自己的本真,也更接近成为你注定要成为的那个人)”可知,本段围绕寻找并发现真实的自我和人生价值展开。B项“发现你的真我和价值观”适合作本段小标题。故选B项。
【12题详解】
本段小标题为“Take risks (承担风险)”。根据上文“Have you been nervous up until now to put yourself out there for fear of failure?(你是否一直因为害怕失败而不敢展现自己?)”以及下文“Learn to be courageous and take advantage of more opportunities (机会) that come your way, like they do. (学会勇敢,并像成功人士一样,利用更多降临到你身上的机会)”可知,本段讨论要敢于承担风险,F项“成功人士并非靠一直规避风险而取得成功的”通过指出成功人士的做法,引出“需要承担风险”的观点,承接上下文。故选F。
【13题详解】
本段小标题为“Be around happy and good people(与快乐、善良的人为伍)”。空处位于段首,统领下文。根据下文“As the old saying goes, ‘Birds of a feather flock together.’ (正如那句老话所说:‘物以类聚,人以群分。’)”可知,本段阐述人际交往中“近朱者赤”的相互影响关系。E项“你花费最多时间相处的人是你的一面镜子”揭示了社交环境对个人品性的作用,与后文形成有效呼应。故选E项。
【14题详解】

【15题详解】
本段小标题为“Build self-trust and relax. (建立自我信任并放松)”。前文通过“Is there something that you need? Do you need a break?(你是否需要什么?你需要休息吗?)”两个反问,强调自我觉察的重要性。根据前文“Make sure to check in with yourself often and see how you’re doing.(务必经常进行自我审视,看看自己的状态如何)”可知,G项“花时间独处,并经常检查自己是否走在正确的方向上”与前文语义连贯,具体阐述了如何通过独处和自我审视来照顾自己、维持与自己的良好关系。故选G项。

I'm crazy about running. Sometimes the pain of running can have a magic influence on a runner. Throughout any given race, you are suffering. Your lungs feel like they're being squeezed (挤压) by something unseen. But it is in this pain that a great runner is created.
My first cross-country coach told me that every race is run with patience and determination. I've carried this advice with me for hundreds of miles. I especially remember the 5 miles of running in one race, where his words encouraged me a lot.
That day the weather was perfect. I and dozens of runners gathered at the starting line to do some last-minute preparations for the running. Then, we lined up and got ready to start. There was a brief moment before the gun gave a signal of running. In that moment of great stress, I determined to push myself to run as fast as possible, hoping to make my coach proud, who was waiting for me at the finish line. When the sound of "Bang" came up, we were off.
Running between runners, I managed to work my way up in the first 400 meters and passed many racers on my sides. But out of good sportsmanship, we each said a "good job" or "keep up" to every person we passed. Although we were competitors, running was a connection we all shared.
The first mile passed quickly in a feeling of excitement. It was not challenging in the beginning of the running. But I knew it would be harder and harder in the following miles. I made full use of the running skills that my coach had taught me. I checked that I was doing everything right, breathing in through my nose, keeping my hands relaxed and pumping (快速摆动) my arms. However, the shadow of tiredness danced before me. Anyway I tried to push it out of my mind.
With time going by, the competition became fiercer. Every runner tried their best to run in order to gain a good place in the race. Audience along the track shouted and cheered us.

【答案】Possible version:
Eventually I reached the final mile. It was then that I felt extremely tired and sweat fell down my face. Many runners in the race had fallen behind, but I refused to be one of them. Instead, I chose to pump my legs a little faster and push myself a little harder. As the last half mile was near, the number of people along the track increased. Around the next corner, I could see my coach waving to me in great excitement. I tried to run faster.
Unfortunately, I suddenly fell down. I felt great pain and discouraged. Just at that moment, the audience shouted, "Come on, girl!” "Watch out!” "Keep up!” Meanwhile, a runner behind me came to me and gave me a lift. I was really grateful and encouraged. I stood up and ran for the final 400 meters. When I finally sailed over the finish line, I nearly cried with relief. I won the third place in the race. My coach was proud of me and I felt great too.

Some people learn a foreign language because they want to communicate with the local people. Some other people are just curious about foreign cultures. Whatever your reason may be, the best foreign language software around will certainly help you pick up the language in a few weeks. You will be able to speak fluently and understand the language clearly as well.
Tell Me More
This software is widely used in US schools, and it is believed to be the best foreign language learning software around the world. It offers instructions for learning Arabic, Chinese, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese and Spanish. However, the software does not come cheap as it costs around $ 250.
Talk Now
If you are looking for cheaper language learning software, then this is just the suitable choice for you. This software will cost you around $40, and even though it is not as useful as Tell Me More, it is still very good software for the purpose. The disadvantage is that there is a clear lack (缺少) of interactive (互动的) activities for users so it does not result in fluency.
Instant Immersion
This software supplies learning material for up to 35 different languages, and it is widely considered as the best software for learning Spanish as well. It will cost you around $ 30, and this is a very reasonable price for such a piece of highly recommended and loved language learning software. The learning courses are highly interactive, and the ever present speech recognition (语音识别) feature ensures that you are getting the pronunciation right when you speak.
Kid Speak
This is a kind of foreign language translation software that you can make use of, and it will cost you around $ 30. So it is safe to say that the level of performance will be similar to that of Talk Now. This software is designed more for children to use for interesting videos.
1. What can we know about learning a language from Paragraph 1?
A. Different people have different purposes. B. It is unnecessary to talk with the natives.

Every day as the sun rises, Ma Hongyi, a 66-year-old farmer, can be seen patrolling (巡逻) Yuncheng Salt Lake with his dog in Yuncheng city, North China’s Shanxi province.
Ma still remembers the day when he first saw two big pink birds walking through the water. “I had never seen such pretty birds. They were even taller than me, with long wings,” Ma recalls. He was later told that the birds were flamingos (火烈鸟), which were listed on the International Union for Protection of Nature’s red list of endangered species in 2013. From that day on, Ma started his second career as a volunteer to prevent human beings from interfering with the wildlife. “The birds are attracted by the good environment,” Ma says. “I will do my best to protect the lake so that birds can come here every year.”
Yuncheng Salt Lake covers an area of 132 square kilometres and used to serve as a salt production base. As the country began paying more attention to environmental protection, an ecological (生态的) protection and development centre was set up in 2012 to carry out regular ecological protection and restoration (修复) of the lake. “The greatest value of the Salt Lake lies in its ecology, which should be properly restored and protected,” says Chu Xianghao, mayor of the city. The lake area hosts 292 types of wild animals, along with 782 plant varieties, some of which are newly recorded species in the country.
After patrolling the lake as volunteer for over four years, Ma was paid by the local government to help with wildlife protection in 2019. “The lake’s ecology is getting better,” Ma says, adding that he looks forward to the arrival of the flamingos every year. “Some of them are my old friends,” he says.
4. Why does Ma patrol Yuncheng Salt Lake every day?
A. To observe the flamingos closely. B. To come across the flamingos again.
C. To serve as a keeper of the lake. D. To admire the scenery around the lake.
5. What does the underlined phrase “interfering with” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Sharing space with. B. Causing problems to.
C. Bringing benefits to. D. Losing control of.
6. Which word can best describe Ma?
A. Responsible. B. Creative. C. Honest. D. Humorous.
C
After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.
Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, separate rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.
Every four-square-metre room provides a treadmill (跑步机), an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner, and users can let down the curtains (窗帘) for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen fixed on the treadmill. But there’s no shower.
Similar to using a shared bike, users can locate a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room in advance and then need to scan a QR code (二维码) for use. A refundable deposit (可退还的押金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes.
The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company founded in July. Within several months since it was founded, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan. However, the idea of the shared fitness experience is not totally new. Last December, the company VRUN set up shared treadmills in office and apartment buildings.
The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. According to Yicai Global, confident people are pouring millions into sharing start-ups. In March, the State Information Centre published a report which says that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country’s GDP.
7. What makes the shared gym room different from the common one?
A. Sharing open spaces. B. Providing free training courses.
C. Holding one person at a time. D. Having some advanced equipment.
8. What do people need to do to use the shared gym room?
A. Pay 100 yuan first. B. Book a room ahead of time.
C. Have a shower before exercise. D. Let down curtains for privacy.
9. What is the author’s attitude towards China’s sharing economy?
A. Doubtful. B. Unclear. C. Worried. D. Positive.
10. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To introduce shared gym rooms. B. To praise a technology company.
C. To support the idea of sharing gym rooms. D. To tell the future of shared gym rooms.

I'm crazy about running. Sometimes the pain of running can have a magic influence on a runner. Throughout any given race, you are suffering. Your lungs feel like they're being squeezed (挤压) by something unseen. But it is in this pain that a great runner is created.
My first cross-country coach told me that every race is run with patience and determination. I've carried this advice with me for hundreds of miles. I especially remember the 5 miles of running in one race, where his words encouraged me a lot.
That day the weather was perfect. I and dozens of runners gathered at the starting line to do some last-minute preparations for the running. Then, we lined up and got ready to start. There was a brief moment before the gun gave a signal of running. In that moment of great stress, I determined to push myself to run as fast as possible, hoping to make my coach proud, who was waiting for me at the finish line. When the sound of "Bang" came up, we were off.
Running between runners, I managed to work my way up in the first 400 meters and passed many racers on my sides. But out of good sportsmanship, we each said a "good job" or "keep up" to every person we passed. Although we were competitors, running was a connection we all shared.
The first mile passed quickly in a feeling of excitement. It was not challenging in the beginning of the running. But I knew it would be harder and harder in the following miles. I made full use of the running skills that my coach had taught me. I checked that I was doing everything right, breathing in through my nose, keeping my hands relaxed and pumping (快速摆动) my arms. However, the shadow of tiredness danced before me. Anyway I tried to push it out of my mind.
With time going by, the competition became fiercer. Every runner tried their best to run in order to gain a good place in the race. Audience along the track shouted and cheered us.
