Apart from our tongue, from my point of view, eyes are another kind of language we use to express ourselves. Through one's eyes, we can read sorrow, happiness, encouragement, and many other emotions. Eyes are always one of the fastest and most direct organs to reveal your thoughts.
Until now, I still remember an unforgettable experience, which happened when I took part in a singing contest at the age of nine. It was the power of my mother's eyes that encouraged me to go for it. I had shown great interest in singing before that, but I was too shy to sing in public. So one day my mother took me to sign up for the singing contest. With my mother's company and encouragement, I was determined to meet that challenge.
Standing on the stage, I suddenly found I had become the focus of all the eyes. I got so nervous that I couldn't even keep my eyes open. When it was my turn to be introduced to the audience and sing, I became even more nervous. I felt my legs were shaking and my memory seemed to have left me, as I couldn't remember anything. Searching for help, I met my mother's eyes which were sparkling with encouragement and strong power. It seemed that they were speaking to me, “Come on! Baby! Take it easy. I'll always be with you!” I read the message through her eyes and at that moment I got my confidence back and began to sing my song.
When I came down from the stage, she came up to me, saying, “Great! I'm proud of you!” and gave me a big hug. At that time, I found her eyes filled with tears of joy. Sometimes, you see, just the encouraging eyes themselves can make a shy person brave.

A new study, published in Journal of Experimental Psychology found that communication interactions that included voice, like a phone call or video chat, created stronger social bonds than communication through typing, like text messaging or email.
In the study, researchers used various experiments to gauge the bond. In one, they asked 200 people to make predictions about what it would be like to reconnect with an old friend by email or by phone and then assigned people at random to do one or the other. Although people anticipated that a phone call would be more awkward, hearing someone's voice actually made the experience better. However, people who participated in the experiment reported that they did form a significantly stronger bond with their old friend on the phone versus email, and that they did not feel more awkward.
In another experiment, the researchers had strangers connected by either texting, talking over the video chat, or talking using only audio. They found that both forms of voice communication—whether video or audio only—made the strangers feel significantly more connected than when they communicated via texting.
Sabrina Romanoff, a Harvard trained clinical psychologist based in New York City, says people tend to text or email instead of calling because of convenience, as they see it as a controlled form of communication where they can “communicate information exactly in the way they intend without unexpected additions by the other person”.
Romanoff says that in reality, texting can make it hard to determine the true meaning behind a conversation. A phone call is actually more convenient considering the net effects of the message. Each party is present, and therefore, able to gauge the meaning behind the content without ruminating on the endless possible meanings behind words and punctuation.
8.What is the purpose of the study
A.To encourage people to let their fingers do the talking.
B.To introduce the effects of verbal and non-verbal communication.
C.To demonstrate the strengths and weaknesses of making phone calls.
D.To compare the bond of communication through voice and typing.
9.Which way will make you feel more connected if you miss a friend far away
A.Typing a letter.
B.Sending an email.
C.Having a video chat.
D.Texting a message.
10.What does “a controlled form of communication” refer to in Paragraph 4
A.A way to talk about controlled topics.
B.A way to communicate without time limit.
C.A way to explain something without delay.
D.A way to express thoughts without being disturbed.
11.What advantage does making phone calls have over texting
A.Being more formal.
B.Being less awkward.
C.Being more straightforward.
D.Being less expensive.
D
Teenagers who travel around the world alone have been making headlines quite often. A young person alone in a dangerous situation attracts attention and sponsors. Young sailors also attract various views. For example, Jessica Watson was asked by the government to cancel her voyage, yet the Prime Minister called her “a hero for young Australians” when she returned. It seems that there is confusion about the competence and independence of young people.
The popular psychologists tell us that teenage brains are likely to make wrong judgments. But such ideas often do not apply to specific individuals. Between the ages of 14 and 18, teenagers vary greatly in their abilities. The amount of independence that each is allowed should be determined not simply by their age but by discussion with the related, responsible adults. Some teens are certainly inexperienced and can make childish mistakes, but the ones who attempt dangerous journeys normally do so by winning the confidence of hard-headed and well-qualified adult supporters.
But it's also wrong to think that any 16-year-old can desire to get achievements as unusual as Jessica Watson's. Watson calls herself “an ordinary girl who has a dream”. Her intention is to encourage teenagers but this idea can have the opposite effect of making them feel not good enough because great achievements are beyond them. Should all teens have such dreams Actually, individuals face varying circumstances that restrict their dreams.
Teenagers who travel around the world alone should not be judged by preconceived (事先形成的) views about young people. Nor should “ordinary” teenagers feel stressed to long for extraordinary personal goals. In fact, I believe the example of solo sailing overstresses individualism. The teenage years are when most of us “ordinary” people learn that we can achieve great things in cooperation with others.
12.What can we learn about Jessica Watson
A.She was criticized by the government.
B.She eventually canceled her voyage.
C.She has traveled around Australia.
D.She made a successful voyage.
13.What can be inferred about teenagers from the text
A.They have similar abilities.
B.They make decisions on their own.
C.They always make wrong judgments.
D.They need support of responsible adults.
14.Who does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refer to
A.Parents. B.Teenagers.
C.Psychologists. D.Adults.
15.What is the best title for the text
A.Divided Opinions on Young Adventurers
B.Problems Faced by Adventurous Teens
C.Various Ways to Become Independent
D.Pressure to Achieve Personal Goals

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。
Three small British ships crossed the Atlantic Ocean in 1607. They landed in an area that would later become the American state of Virginia. They began the first of several British colonies.
People in these new colonies began to call areas of their new land by words borrowed from the native people they found living there. For example, many of the great rivers in the United States were taken from American Indian words. 　16　
Britain had other colonies in Africa, Asia, the Caribbean, and India. The English language also became part of these colonies. These colonies are now independent, but English is still one of the languages spoken there. 　17　 For example, the word “shampoo” comes from India. “Banana” is believed to be from Africa.
Experts cannot explain many English words. For hundreds of years, a dog was called a “hound”. The word is still used but not as common as the word “dog”. Experts do not know where the word “dog” comes from or when the word appears. 　18　 Other words whose origins are also unknown include “fun” and “bad” and “big”.
　19　 A good example is the words “motor” and “hotel”. Many years ago, someone linked them together into the word “motel”.
People often ask how many words there are in the English language. 　20　 The Oxford English Dictionary lists about six hundred and fifteen thousand words. Yet there can be more out of the list.
A.English speakers just started using it.
B.But the answer still remains unknown.
C.It started borrowing words from British colonies.
D.The number of English words is increasing day by day.
E.The Mississippi, the Tennessee, and the Missouri are examples.
F.English speakers also invent new words by linking words together.
G.And the English language grows with words from the native languages added.

第二节(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。
Ashwini was waiting at the door for her children, Amit and Anika. It was the last day of their exams and she had prepared tasty snacks for them.
“Mom, you know Rishit from my class He always disturbed others during the exam and copied from them.”
“Hey, let me speak now,” Anika said and kept giggling all the time. “Mom, one of the girls in my class had prepared a matchbox instead of a soapbox.”
The kids continued speaking, giggling, and enjoyed pizzas till late evening. Ashwini was pleased to know that her kids shared everything with her. If the kids faced any problem or had an interesting piece of news, they always shared it with their mother. They were not scared of or nervous about their mother.
In the vacation, Ashwini's elder sister, Sunita, visited their place along with her two kids, Pranjal and Kanchan. Sunita observed Ashwini's friendly behavior with her kids and opposed it.
“What is this, Ashwini You never scold your kids. They are not scared of you,” she said to her younger sister.
“Sunita, kids should never be scared of their parents. They should feel free when they communicate with parents.”
“Weren't we afraid of our parents Don't you remember you used to be nervous while talking to Dad Yet we had better communication,” Sunita argued.
“Well, we are not living in the same age. We need to be more open-minded with children now.”
But Sunita was not satisfied with her explanation. She continued complaining about how Ashwini's kids were dependent on her mother for everything.
“Why do you have to prepare different dishes each time they are hungry Pranjal directly calls the nearby hotel and places an order. You don't have to spend time on it.”
Until Sunita left, she had almost brainwashed Ashwini by constantly reminding her that she was not bringing up her kids properly. When Sunita left, Ashwini let out a sigh of relief.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
Paragraph 1:
When the school started again, Ashwini's attitude towards her kids changed a little bit.
Paragraph 2:
Ashwini noticed the change in the kids' behavior soon and found it unbearable.

第一节
A
语篇解读　本文是一篇应用文,主题语境是人与社会,主题语境内容为暑期工作介绍。文章介绍了省政府及其合作伙伴为学生提供的几个暑期工作项目。本文旨在培养学生多渠道获得信息的能力。
1.B　细节理解题。本题题干意为:Summer Company 有什么特别之处 根据Summer Company标题下第一句(Summer Company给学生提供实际操作的商业培训和高达3,000美元的夏季自我创业奖励)可知B 项正确(为创业者提供奖励)。A:在上岗前不要求培训;C:让一个人在自然环境下工作;D:提供更多的夏季工作机会。
2.D　细节理解题。本题题干意为:Stewardship Youth Ranger Program要求的年龄范围是多大 根据Stewardship Youth Ranger Program标题下第二段中的学生年龄是16或17岁,并且在今年12月31日以前不满18岁。由此可知答案为D项。
3.D　细节理解题。本题题干意为:哪个项目对残疾人有利 根据题干中的the disabled可定位到Summer Employment Opportunities部分最后一句话(有些职位要求学生年龄15到24岁,有残疾的可以放宽到29岁)。由此可知答案为D项。
B
语篇解读　本文是一篇记叙文。眼睛是心灵的窗户,通过眼睛我们可以读出各种情感。作者参加歌唱比赛,因为感到害羞而不敢在公开场合唱歌。作者妈妈的眼睛鼓励了作者,使她找回自信,完成了比赛。
4.A　细节理解题。文章第一段提出作者对眼睛的观点,然后通过描述自己的经历来证明自己的观点。
5.A　词义猜测题。结合画线词的上下文内容,可以看出此处指眼睛是显示你的思想的最快和最直接的器官,所以reveal的意思是“显示”。
6.C　推理判断题。由比赛结束后作者妈妈的称赞、拥抱以及喜悦之泪可以判断,妈妈认为作者的表演很不错,splendid 意为“极好的”。
7.B　主旨大意题。一个主题贯穿了全文,那就是眼睛。文章开头点出作者对眼睛的观点,然后通过事例说明自己的观点,最后一句话又点明观点,首尾相呼应,主题明确。因此B项最好。
C
语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。一项研究发现,包括语音在内的交流互动,比打字能产生更强的社会联系。文章还介绍了这项研究的开展过程。
8.D　推理判断题。根据第一段可知,发表在《实验心理学杂志》上的一项新研究发现,包括语音在内的交流互动,如电话或视频聊天,比打字,如短信或电子邮件,能产生更强的社会联系;结合第二段第一句In the study, researchers used various experiments to gauge the bond.可知,在这项研究中,研究人员使用了各种实验来衡量纽带关系。所以可知,这项研究的目的是比较语音和打字沟通的纽带关系。故选D。A项“鼓励人们用手指说话”、B项“介绍语言和非语言交流的影响”和C项“展示打电话的优点和缺点”都不是文中提及的研究的目的。
9.C　细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句However, people... reported that they did form a significantly stronger bond with their old friend on the phone versus email...可知,通过电话和老朋友联系会建立一种更强烈的联系。由此可知,如果你想念远方的朋友,视频聊天这种方式会让你们感觉更亲近。故选C。
10.D　词义猜测题。根据画线部分下文communicate information exactly in the way they intend without unexpected additions by the other person可知,完全按照自己的意图传递信息,而不会被对方意外补充。所以推断画线部分指的是一种不受干扰的表达思想的方式。故选D。A项“谈论可控话题的一种方式”;B项“一种没有时间限制的交流方式”;C项“一种没有延迟的解释某事的方式”。
11.C　推理判断题。根据最后一段可知,Romanoff说在现实生活中,发短信会让人很难判断谈话背后的真实意思。考虑到信息的净效应,打电话实际上更方便。每一方都在场,因此,能够判断内容背后的意义,而不必推敲词和标点背后无尽可能的含义。所以可推断出,相比发短信,打电话的优势在于更直截了当。故选C。根据第二段中的Although people anticipated that a phone call would be more awkward可知,人们都觉得打电话会更尴尬,所以B项“不怎么尴尬”错误;A项“更正式”和D项“不太贵”不是原文的信息。
D
语篇解读　本文是一篇议论文。独自一人环游世界的青少年经常成为头条新闻,一位名叫Jessica Watson的青少年成了澳大利亚年轻人的英雄,对此各方有着不同的看法。
12.D　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“For example, Jessica Watson was asked by the government to cancel her voyage, yet the Prime Minister called her ‘a hero for young Australians’ when she returned.”可知,政府要求Jessica Watson取消航行,但在她返回时总理称她为“澳大利亚年轻人的英雄”。由此可知,Jessica Watson进行了一次成功的航行。故选D。A项“她受到了政府的批评。”;B项“她最终取消了航行。”;C项“她周游了澳大利亚。”。
13.D　推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The amount of independence that each is allowed should be determined not simply by their age...by winning the confidence of hard-headed and well-qualified adult supporters.”可知,青少年需要负责任的成年人的支持。故选D。A项与第二段中的“Between the ages of 14 and 18, teenagers vary greatly in their abilities.”矛盾;B项所述观点文中未提及;C项提到的“他们总是做出错误的判断。”太过武断,文中第二段第一句只是提到青少年可能会做出错误的判断。
14.B　推理判断题。根据第三段画线词所在句子以及上文 “But it's also wrong to think that any 16-year-old can desire to get achievements as unusual as Jessica Watson's.”可知,认为任何16岁的青少年都渴望获得和Jessica Watson一样不寻常的成就也是错误的。Watson称自己为“一个有梦想的普通女孩”。她这样做的目的是鼓励青少年,但是这个想法可能产生相反的效果,使他们感到自己不够好,因为(在他们看来)伟大的成就是他们不可触及的。所以,画线词them指代的是前文提到的青少年。故选B。
15.A　主旨大意题。通读全文可知,独自一人环游世界的青少年经常成为头条新闻,一位名叫Jessica Watson的青少年成了澳大利亚年轻人的英雄,对此人们有着不同的看法。故A项“对年轻冒险者的不同看法”概括了本文内容。故选A。B项“有冒险精神的青少年面临的问题”;C项“变得独立的各种各样的方法”;D项“实现个人目标的压力”。
第二节
语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。很多英语单词来源于其他语言,人们经常问英语中有多少个单词,但现在仍然不确定。
16.E　根据上一句For example, many of the great rivers in the United States were taken from American Indian words.可知,举例来说,美国许多伟大的河流的名字来自美洲印第安人的语言。可知E项“密西西比河、田纳西河和密苏里河就是例子。”符合语境,承接上文。故选E。
17.G　根据上一句These colonies are now independent, but English is still one of the languages spoken there. 可知,尽管现在殖民地已经独立,但是英语仍然是那里的语言之一;结合下文For example, the word “shampoo” comes from India. “Banana” is believed to be from Africa.可知,“shampoo”这个词来自印度。人们认为“banana”来自非洲。由此可知,英语语言里面添加了殖民地的语言。所以G项“英语是随着本土语言词汇的加入而发展起来的。”符合语境,承上启下。故选G。
18.A　 根据上一句 Experts do not know where the word “dog” comes from or when the word appears.可知,专家们不知道dog这个词的来源和出现时间。A项“说英语的人只是开始使用它。”符合语境,承接上文,且A项中“it”指代此处的“dog”。故选A。
19.F　根据下文Many years ago, someone linked them together into the word “motel”. 可知,很多年前,有人把他们连在一起组成“motel”这个词。所以F项“说英语的人还通过把单词连在一起来创造新词。”符合语境,引起下文,且F项中“by linking words together”与下文“linked them together into the word”呼应。故选F。
20.B　根据上一句People often ask how many words there are in the English language.可知,人们经常问英语中有多少个单词;结合最后一句Yet there can be more out of the list.可知,然而词典之外可能有更多。所以B项“但是答案仍然是未知的。”符合语境,承上启下。故选B。

第一节

36.an　考查冠词。句意:这是印度孟买一节在线汉语课的场面。此处泛指“一节在线汉语课”,应使用不定冠词,online的发音以元音音素开头,所以用an。故填an。
37.variety　考查固定用法。句意:随着新冠肺炎疫情的持续蔓延,多种平台上的在线汉语学习在当地流行起来。a variety of意为“各种各样的……,多种多样的……”。故填variety。
38.learners　考查名词的复数。句意:来自孟买的18岁的Drashti Gala是众多在线汉语学习者之一……。one of后加复数名词,意为“……之一”,应使用名词的复数形式。故填learners。
39.began　考查动词时态。句意:事实上,在她们的爸爸提出建议之后,她家里的三姐妹都开始学起了汉语。根据语境,“开始学习汉语”这一动作发生在过去,应使用一般过去时。故填began。
40.successfully　考查副词。句意:在很短的时间内,她成功通过了汉语水平考试三级(HSK3),目前正在准备更高级别的考试。此处用副词修饰动词。故填successfully。
41.studying　考查动名词。句意:一开始,一些学生很犹豫,因为他们不习惯在网上学习,但现在他们认识到,在线学习意味着他们能将本会花在路上的时间节省下来。短语be used to(习惯于)后应接动名词作宾语。故填studying。
42.that/which　考查定语从句。句意同上。分析句子结构可知,time后为一个定语从句,修饰名词time,且从句中缺少主语,所以用关系代词that或which。
43.in　考查介词。句意:一些负责人表示:“与传统的课堂教学相比,我们的网络课程更方便,更容易进行,也节省了租用教室的成本。所以网上学习很受欢迎。”根据句意可知,此处是固定短语in charge,作后置定语,意为“负责,主管”。故填in。
44.to conduct　考查动词不定式。句意同上。此处是“主语+be+adj.+to do”结构,动词不定式的主动形式表示被动含义。故填to conduct。
45.is saved　考查动词时态和语态。句意同上。the cost与动词save构成被动关系,同时前后语境为一般现在时,所以用一般现在时的被动语态。故填is saved。
第三部分　写作
第一节
One possible version:
Dear Jamie,
I'm sorry to know that you have difficulty in your Chinese reading. To be honest, it's never easy to learn Chinese characters. Even native Chinese speakers may find it hard to learn them well, so you don't have to feel upset. Here are some useful tips.
First and foremost, it would be a good idea to turn to the Internet for help when you have a problem, where you can learn how to read and write the characters. Additionally, practicing is very helpful for language learning, so you are advised to join some clubs and ask for others' help. Last but not least, why not learn some relevant courses on relevant apps, which will definitely be of great benefit.
If there still exist further problems, please don't hesitate to contact me. You are sure to make progress!
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
When the school started again, Ashwini's attitude towards her kids changed a little bit. One day, Amit asked his mother a science problem. Instead of replying directly, Ashwini said, “Amit, you should know how to study on your own. See how independent your cousins, Pranjal and Kanchan, are.” When she finished, the kids watched her with their mouths open. From then on, they changed completely and became very quiet at home.
Paragraph 2:
Ashwini noticed the change in the kids' behavior soon and found it unbearable. Anika did not ask her mother for evening snacks any more. Amit never asked his mother any problems. There were no chats between the mother and the kids either. Suddenly Ashwini realized it wasn't what she wanted. The house appeared too quiet. The atmosphere at home was unbearably cold. Ashwini suddenly realized for kids, time was love. So she decided to prepare tasty food for their return and be ready to chat and share something with her children.
