I.阅读理解
Jeff Bezos,the world's wealthiest person,
was just five when American astronauts
stepped on the surface of the moon on July 20,
1969.However,he's never forgotten the
black-and-white footage from the historic
moment.Since then,the moon has always
been the center of his space dreams which are
channeled through his spaceflight company,
Blue Origin.
On May 9,2019,at a meeting held in
Washington,D.C.,Bezos came one step
closer to achieving his dream of sending people
there,when he presented a model of a lander,
Blue Moon,designed to carry both humans
and goods to the satellite.
Though details of how Blue Moon will be
sent to space remain unclear,Bezos is
confident it'll be ready for its mission(使命)
by 2024.He considers it unavoidable to settle
in space given our ever-increasing population
and fewer resources.Unlike those seeking a
home on another planet,Bezos thinks humans
will be living in orbital space settlements,
which are similar to the International Space
Station,except much bigger,each housing
millions of people.Space taxis would make it
easy for humans to travel between
settlements.
But first we need to develop a cheaper
way to travel between space and Earth.Bezos
may have solved the problem partly by
removing the biggest cost of spaceflights
single use rockets -with Blue Origin's
reusable New Shepard rocket,which has made
several trips to space and back since 2015.

Ⅲ.读后续写
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。
When I was ten years old,I lived with my
family in a small house in rural South Jersey.I
often accompanied my mother to the A&P to
buy groceries.Without a car,we walked,and
I would help her carry the bags.
My mother had to shop for everything
carefully,as she was a waitress,and her
salary barely sustained(勉强维持)us.One
day,while she was weighing prices,a
promotional display for the World Book
Encyclopedia caught my eye.The volumes
were beautifully cream-coloured.Volume I
was ninety-nine cents with a ten-dollar
purchase.
All I could think of while shopping was
the book.I stood at the register with my
mother,holding my breath as the cashier rang
up the items.It came to over eleven dollars.
得分
My mother produced a five,some singles,and
a handful of change.As she was counting out
the money,I somehow found the courage to
ask for the encyclopedia(百科全书).“Could
we get one?"I said,showing her the display.
“It's only ninety-nine cents.”
I did not understand my mother's
increasing anxiety;she did not have enough
change and had to sacrifice a large can of peas
to pay the amount,“Not now,Patricia,”she
said sternly(严厉地).“Today is not a good
day."I packed the groceries and followed her
home,upset.
The next Saturday,my mother gave me a
dollar and sent me to the A&P alone.Two
quarts of milk and a loaf of bread -that's
what a dollar in 1957.I went straight to the
World Book display.There was only one first
volume left,which I placed in my cart(购物
)I didn't need a cart,but took one so I
could read as I went up and down the aisles.A
lot of time went by and I knew I had to leave,
but I couldn't bear to part with the book.With
no detective in sight,I,impulsively(冲动地),
put it inside my shirt and zipped up my jacket.
I was a tall,skinny kid,and I am certain the
shape of the book was obvious.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Paragraph 1:
My heart bealing rapidly,I headed for
the register.
Paragraph 2:
Back home,I told my mother what I had
promised the detective.

a much gentler pace.”可知,此处是指这样的生活方式有许多值
得我们美慕的地方。]
14.D[根据语境,此处是说,在我们这样做之前,我们必须想想我
们的祖先面对的艰巨任务。express“表达”;charge“控告”;

l5.A[根据空前的“Modern machines”以及空后的“people from
that primitive existence”可知,是现代机器把人们从那种原始的
生活中解放出来。free“解放”;remain“保持”;keep“雏持”;clear

参考范文:
Paragraph 1:
My heart beating rapidly,I headed for the register.I paid the
dollar for the three items and was about to leave when I felt a heavy
tap on my shoulder.It was a big detective."You stole something.
You will be searched,he announced.Horrified,I slid the book out
from inside the shirt and handed it over."An encyclopedia?"he
asked,somewhat surprised..“Yes,”I whispered,trembling.“Why
didn't you ask your parents to purchase it?""I did,but they didn't
have the money.With a sigh,he made me promise to tell my
parents about my wrongdoing and then let me leave.
Paragraph 2:
Back home,I told my mother what I had promised the
detective.Unexpectedly,she didn't explode as usual.She fell silent,
looking extremely anxious.Consumed with guilt,I gathered my
courage,apologized and promised that it would never ever happen
again.“All will be)K!”said my mother,wrapping me in her arms.
Then she told me that she would go to the A&.P to tell the detective
I had admitted and that I should play outside.Hours later,when I
was back home,I noticed a bag with my name on it.I opened it and
packed inside was the World Book Encyclopedia,Volume I.

语篇解读本文是一篇说明文。随着技术进步,未来很多公司会使
用更多的机器人来取代全职工人。零工经济时代很快就会到来。
1.C[词义猜测题。根据第二段第一句可知机器人的成本比人力
更便宜,未来很多公司会更多使用机器人。也就是说机器人会夺
走很多人的工作。故C项正确。]
2.B[细节理解题。根据第三段第一句可知Uer公司正开发无人
驾驶技术,会大大地减少雇用司机的工资支出,公司的运营成本
会越来越低。故B项正确。]
3.B「推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句可知兼职工作的人无法
享受生病工资,也就是说全职工作的人可以享受sick pay,这也是
全职工作的优势。故B项正确。]
4.A「推理判断题。根据文章最后一段可知作者认为关闭对外贸
易并不能让工作机会回归,只会减缓全球经济发展并损害美国的
出口。由此可见作者支持对外贸易。故A项正确。
语篇解读预测未来的能力是一种罕见的才能。文中介绍了一位伟
大的科幻作家之一
一美国作家艾萨克·阿西莫夫及其他的预测。
1.C[上文提到“美国作家艾萨克·阿西莫夫是他那个时代最伟大
的科幻作家之一,他有这样一种天赋”;下文提到“让我们看看他
预测对了什么”。由此可知,空格处在本段中起承上启下的作用。
故C远项“早在1983年,他就被要求预测2019年的世界会是什
么样子”符合语境。]
2.D[根据“Asimov thought computers would cause a revolution
comparable to the industrial revolution of the 19th century."
知,阿西莫夫认为计算机将引发一场与19世纪工业革命相当的
革命。D项“关于计算机在未来将所扮演的角色,他惊人准确地
预测到了”是说明他预测的计算机的结果,与本段内容符合。]
3.G
[根据“He also had a great deal to say about space
exploration,”可知,关于太空探索,他也预测了。所以空格处要接
着说他预测的结果。故G远项“国际空间站证明了他的预言,我
们不仅要拜访太空,还要设法留在那里”与太空探索相关,且是预
测结果。]
4.A[根据“He read the newspapers and magazines sold in his
parents'candy store.”可知,他读了父母糖果店出售的报纸和杂
志。所以空格处要与下一句一起来说明阿西莫夫是如何培养他
对未来发展的特殊意识的。故A远项“作为一个聪明的男孩,阿
西莫夫在五岁时就开始自学进行阅读”承上启下。
5.F[阅读本段可知,本段主要在说作为一名作家,他的书以科技
引起的社会变革为主题,故远F项。]
