【分析】作者通过讲述自己生活中两件因为过专注于机所发生的事情,诉我们不应该让手机和电于广品控制或占据了我们的生活,建议需要手机的时候就用,不需要的时候就把它关掉。多打开我们的心,少打开我们的手机。
推理判断题。根据第二段中" I closed my mouth in order to avoid saying the words that I promised myself I would no longer use ."可知,我闭上了嘴,避免说那些答应自己不再说的话(指骂人或脏话)。由此可推知,作者对司机的行为感到非常生气。故选 A 。
词义猜测题。根据画线词上文" I noticed the other driver looking at his cell phone totally "可知,作者注意到另一个司机正盯着他的手机,注意力全在手机上,自然是不可能注意到发生的事情。由此可知,画线词意思为"没有注意到"。故选 B 。
推理判断题。根据第三段" Later in town , I was coming out of a store when a yellow butterfly started to circle around my head . I smiled peacefully and held out my open hand . To my joy , the butterfly landed on it briefly and swung its wings before flying away . I looked around to see if anyone else noticed this small wonder , but the only two people near me had their heads down , looking at their cell phone screens ."可知后来到了城里,我正从一家商店里出来,一只黄蝴蝶开始在我头上盘旋。我平静地微笑着,伸出我张开的手。令我高兴的是,这只蝴蝶在它上面短暂地停留了一下,然后摆动着翅膀飞走了。我环顾四周,想看看有没有人注意到这个小小的惊奇,但我身边只有两个人低着头看着自己的手机屏幕。由此可推知,第三段的例子表明,沉迷于手机可能会让人错过一些美好的东西。故选 D 。
27 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中" I began to think that life is what happens while people are busy looking at their smart phones . Now I know that social media , computers and smart phones are all necessaries in our lives , but it doesn ' t mean that they have . to control our days or take over our lives .(我开始认为生活就是人们忙着看他们的智能手机时发生的事情。我知道现在社交媒体、电脑和智能手机都是我们生活中的必需品,但这并不意味着它们必须控制我们的生活或占据我们的生活)"以及最后一段中" Don ' t let your smart phone take away your smart mind . Don ' t let technology take over your soul . Use it when you need it , and turn it off when you don ' t . Turn your heart on more and our p 制了你的灵魂。需要的时候就用,不需要的时候就把它关掉。多打开我们的心,少打开我们的手机)"可知,作者对人们花费大量时间在手机上持反对态度。故选 C 。
28.A 29.B 30.C 31.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍的是车辆在美国西部可能每天导致数千万蜜蜂死亡的现状及应对措施。
28.主旨大意题。根据第二段中“Most studies have focused on forests and larger insects. But bee diversity (多样性) is greatest in dry, open areas, and most bees are tiny — just 2 to 25 millimeters long. (大多数研究都集中在森林和较大的昆虫上。但蜜蜂的多样性在干燥、开阔的地区是最大的,而且大多数蜜蜂都很小,只有2到25毫米长)”可知,这段主要讨论了过去这类研究的局限性,因为聚焦森林和较大的昆虫它们没有关注到蜜蜂。故选A项。
29.推理判断题。根据第三段中的“They made 29 trips around Utah in spring and summer, traveling more than 9,334 kilometers, and identified bees that were hit by cars. Every trip resulted in at least one bee death, and they found 14 different species. (他们在春季和夏季在犹他州进行了29次旅行,行程超过9334公里,并确定了被汽车撞到的蜜蜂。每次旅行至少导致一只蜜蜂死亡,他们发现了14种不同的蜜蜂)”可知,第三段列举了相关数据,说明蜜蜂被汽车撞到的情况,结合第四段中的“The researchers guessed that one car driving between Salt Lake City and Moab might kill 50 to 175 bees. Based on traffic data, that means several million bees are killed when 94,000 cars travel that route each day. Millions of cars run in Utah daily, and similar trips happen in nearby states, so the total number of bees killed each day in the region is likely in the tens of millions. (研究人员猜测,一辆行驶在盐湖城和摩押之间的汽车可能会杀死50到175只蜜蜂。根据交通数据,这意味着每天有94,000辆汽车行驶在这条路线上,有数百万只蜜蜂被杀死。犹他州每天有数百万辆汽车行驶,附近的州也有类似的行驶,因此该地区每天被杀死的蜜蜂总数可能达到数千万只)”可知,第四段中同样列举了数据说明众多的蜜蜂被过路的车辆杀死。由此推知,这两段主要通过列举相关数字来展开论述。故选B项。
30.细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Research has shown that bees usually avoid crossing roads unless there are plants in the middle. So, creating healthy habitat along both sides of a road, but not in the middle, could help. (研究表明,蜜蜂通常避免过马路,除非中间有植物。因此,在道路两侧创造健康的栖息地,而不是在道路中间,可能会有所帮助)”可知,防止蜜蜂被杀死的一种方法是在路边种植植物。故选C项。
31.推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是第一段中“Tens of millions of bees are likely being killed each day by vehicles in the western United States, a new study finds. (一项新的研究发现,在美国西部,每天可能有数千万只蜜蜂被车辆杀死)”以及下文分析的蜜蜂被车辆杀死的数据情况可知,文章通过研究结果和具体数据说明了每天可能有大量蜜蜂因车辆撞击而死亡,并提出了减少蜜蜂死亡的建议。由此推知,文章的主要目的是介绍蜜蜂面临的危险,即车辆对蜜蜂的威胁。故选C项。
32.B 33.A 34.B 35.C
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要介绍的是作者对春节传统在家庭中逐渐淡化的感觉及对传承文化重要性的反思。
32.推理判断题。根据第一段“On New Year’s day, my family, including all my uncles, aunts, and cousins, dressed in new clothes, gathered at my grandma’s house. Kids were pulled out of school, and adults took the day off. The celebration lasted throughout the day and late into the night, with one tradition following another. (在春节当天,我的家人,包括所有的叔叔、阿姨和表兄弟姐妹,穿上新衣服,聚集在我奶奶家。孩子们被从学校接出来,大人们也放假一天。庆祝活动持续了一整天,直到深夜,一个传统接着另一个传统进行。)”可知,在春节的时候作者一家人都会聚集在奶奶家,孩子大人都放假,庆祝活动一直持续到深夜,一个传统接着一个传统地进行着,由此可知,作者的家人非常重视春节,将其视为一个重要的节日。故选B项。
33.词句猜测题。根据第一段“On New Year’s day, my family, including all my uncles, aunts, and cousins, dressed in new clothes, gathered at my grandma’s house. Kids were pulled out of school, and adults took the day off. The celebration lasted throughout the day and late into the night, with one tradition following another. (在春节当天,我的家人,包括所有的叔叔、阿姨和表兄弟姐妹,穿上新衣服,聚集在我奶奶家。孩子们被从学校接出来,大人们也放假一天。庆祝活动持续了一整天,直到深夜,一个传统接着另一个传统进行。)”可知,以前的春节作者一家人都会精心准备到奶奶家一起过节,一直庆祝到深夜,结合第二段“Fast-forward to 2019: My grandma has passed away, the adults are elderly, and the kids have grown up and are living their own life.(快进到2019年:我的奶奶去世了,大人们都老了,孩子们都长大了,过着自己的生活)”可知,随着奶奶去世,大人们老去和孩子们长大,所以,划线单词所在的句子表达的是“他们不再像以前那样精心准备和组织他们的农历新年庆祝活动了”符合语境,由此可知,划线单词的意思与“精心准备和组织的”意义相近。故选A项。
34.推理判断题。根据第三段中的“My Asian features and skin colour do not entirely define who I am. (我的亚裔特征和肤色并不能完全定义我的身份)”及下文“I can’t quite fully claim that I am an American and not fully Asian. There isn’t really a check box that I can mark. I am Chinese-Vietnamese-Asian-American. (我不能完全说我是美国人而不是完全的亚洲人。没有一个我可以标记的复选框。我是一个有着中国和越南血统的亚裔美国人)”可知,作者用hamburger指代“美国”,用rice指代“亚洲的中国和越南”,展示了他的两个不同的身份。故选B项。
35.推理判断题。根据最后一段“I now have two little boys. It saddens me to think they will never be able to experience what my sisters and I did as little kids during this holiday. Recently, for the first time, I’ve hung up Chinese New Year decorations around the house and replaced our Christmas wreath (花环) on the front door with decorative firecrackers. In a way, my sons are forcing me to slow down and explore my heritage. (我现在有两个小男孩。想到他们永远无法体验我和姐妹们小时候在这个节日里所经历的一切,我感到很悲伤。最近,我第一次在家里挂起了春节装饰,并用装饰性的鞭炮替换了前门的圣诞花环。在某种程度上,我的儿子们让我放慢脚步,探索我的文化遗产。)”可知,作者的两个儿子对中国传统新年没有概念,所以作者想通过这些装饰,通过自身对传统的探索,来影响孩子们,把旧的传统传承下去。故选C项。
36.F 37.A 38.E 39.G 40.C

The Big Cleaning plan began. Joan collected the clothes from sofa and then put them in the water of a basin. After pouring in some washing liquids, she began to wash them by hand. Realizing the clothes were clean enough, Joan gently squeezed water out and hung them to dry. Meanwhile, Mike was busy mopping the floor back and forth with all his strength, really aware of what hard work his Mum had at home! They had just finished the cleaning when the express boy came to the door.
With the cake placed on the table, Mum came in.“Happy birthday, Mum!”, they greeted in chorus. Confused and surprised, Mum stood frozen. When Mum realized what had happened, a warm current rose in her heart. Staring at the clean floor and the washed clothes, she could hardly contain her excitement and hugged them tightly, “It is the best birthday gift I have ever had!” Mum said emotionally. Just then Joan took out her smartphone and took a happy video named Mum’s Birthday and sent it to Dad.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项
A
Visit Amsterdam, the Netherlands
Best time to visit
July and August are popular and busy. If you want to see the tulips (郁金香), come mid-April to early May. You’ll find better deals and quieter crowds from October to March, with the exception of New Year’s Eve. This is a unique and exciting celebration in Amsterdam, and well Worth experiencing.
Amsterdam transportation
Amsterdam is compact, so walking or renting bikes to make use of the great bike lanes is Easy. Yet public transport (taxis, subways and buses) is also excellent. Buy a chip card at a ticket machine or counter (柜台), or ask the driver for a tourist pass (there are one-to-seven-day cards staring at $8).
Know before visiting
Some attractions (especially the Van Gogh Museum and Anne Frank House) get very busy, especially in summer, so book a ticket and share time to visit in advance. The city is generally safe, but pickpockets operate widely. Keep wallets safe on the subways and at the market.

I was driving to town on a beautiful summer day. The sky was full of clouds. The sun was dancing through the green trees with its golden light and I was smiling at the wonder of it.
Suddenly, a truck rounded in front of me,two feet over the center line. I pulled my wheel to the right as I just missed the truck on one side and a ditch (沟) on the other side. I noticed the other driver looking at his cell phone totally unaware of the near miss. I closed my mouth in order to avoid saying the words that I promised myself I would no longer use.
Later in town, I was coming out of a store when a yellow butterfly started to circle around my head. I smiled peacefully and held out my open hand. To my joy, the butterfly landed on it briefly and swung its wings before flying away. I looked around to see if anyone else noticed this small wonder, but the only two people near me had their heads down, looking at their cell phone screens.
I began to think that life is what happens while people are busy looking at their smart phones. Now I know that social media, computers and smart phones are all necessaries in our lives, but it doesn't mean that they have to control our days or take over our lives. Amazingly, they all come with a power button. We can tum them off anytime we wish to.
Don't let your smart phone take away your smart mind. Don't let technology take over your soul. Use it when you need it, and turn it off when you don't. Turn your heart on more and our phone on less. Share your kindness, your joy, your hugs, your laughter and your life that make others smile.

Tens of millions of bees are likely being killed each day by vehicles in the western United States, a new study finds. The paper published in Sustainable Environment is the first to show how cars may be causing the loss of bees. Bees are important because they help pollinate (传粉) wild plants and a third of the world’s crops.
Scientists have studied the “insect disaster” by counting dead insects along roadsides. Most studies have focused on forests and larger insects. But bee diversity (多样性) is greatest in dry, open areas, and most bees are tiny — just 2 to 25 millimeters long.
A research team from Utah State University studied bee deaths by driving on highways, paved roads, and unpaved roads during the day when bees are active. They made 29 trips around Utah in spring and summer, traveling more than 9,334 kilometers, and identified bees that were hit by cars. Every trip resulted in at least one bee death, and they found 14 different species.
The researchers guessed that one car driving between Salt Lake City and Moab might kill 50 to 175 bees. Based on traffic data, that means several million bees are killed when 94,000 cars travel that route each day. Millions of cars run in Utah daily, and similar trips happen in nearby states, so the total number of bees killed each day in the region is likely in the tens of millions.
Although the numbers are based on simple assumptions, they are still important. There are ways to reduce these deaths. Research has shown that bees usually avoid crossing roads unless there are plants in the middle. So, creating healthy habitat along both sides of a road, but not in the middle, could help.
28.What is paragraph 2 mainly about
A.Limitations on such studies. B.The influence of climate on bees.
C.Living areas of various bees. D.Scientists’ efforts to study diversity.
29.How does the author mainly develop paragraph 3 and paragraph 4
A.By presenting examples. B.By listing related numbers.
C.By making a comparison. D.By providing cause and effect.
30.Which is one way to prevent bees from being killed
A.Raising drivers’ awareness. B.Placing flowers in the middle.
C.Growing plants on roadsides. D.Leaving more space available.
31.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text
A.To explain the bee’s diversity. B.To remind readers to drive less.
C.To introduce the danger to bees. D.To ask people to grow more flowers.
D
Chinese New Year used to be a daylong celebration for us. My parents tried really hard to recreate the season for my sisters and me here in America. On New Year’s day, my family, including all my uncles, aunts, and cousins, dressed in new clothes, gathered at my grandma’s house. Kids were pulled out of school, and adults took the day off. The celebration lasted throughout the day and late into the night, with one tradition following another.
Fast-forward to 2019: My grandma has passed away, the adults are elderly, and the kids have grown up and are living their own life. The Chinese New Year celebration is no longer elaborate as it used to be many years ago. As we melt into American culture, the “olden ways”, as we call them, have fallen away. Life seems to have got busier and much more complex, but I often feel something is missing.
For us first generation kids, it is often easier to let go of the traditions and customs of our parents’. They don’t mean as much to us as they do for them. At the same time, they are still a part of our culture. I realized that the diaspora (流散) of young Asian American in the United Sates is not unique to me. It is an ongoing inner struggle that we all wrestle with. My Asian features and skin colour do not entirely define who I am. I am as much a “hamburger” guy as a “rice” individual. I can’t quite fully claim that I am an American and not fully Asian. There isn’t really a check box that I can mark. I am Chinese-Vietnamese-Asian-American.
I now have two little boys. It saddens me to think they will never be able to experience what my sisters and I did as little kids during this holiday. Recently, for the first time, I’ve hung up Chinese New Year decorations around the house and replaced our Christmas wreath (花环) on the front door with decorative firecrackers. In a way, my sons are forcing me to slow down and explore my cultural heritage.
32.What do we learn about the author’s family
A.They lived a very hard life in America.
B.They regarded the Chinese New Year as an important event.
C.They once lost the tradition of honoring Chinese New Year.
D.They paid little attention to children’s education.
33.What does the underlined word “elaborate” in Paragraph 2 mean
A.Carefully prepared and organized. B.Extremely simple and easy.
C.Unbelievable and sacred. D.Expensive and fascinating.
34.Why does the author mention “hamburger” and “rice” In Paragraph 3
A.To suggest meal choices. B.To show multiple identities.
C.To admire different customs. D.To compare personal tastes.
35.What message does the author seem to deliver in the text
A.We should strengthen family bonds. B.We are what we choose to be.
C.Passing down family traditions is important. D.Knowing yourself is a lifelong process.
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。
Are you spending your holidays sitting around Don’t waste your precious days off. 36 You can find things to fill your days, both inside and out, using your mind or your creative energies, or simply hanging out with other people.
37 Simple outdoor pleasures are often overlooked. Not only is a quick trip out of the house refreshing and mood-lifting, but it is also a great opportunity for exercise. If you have been thinking of getting in shape, then go out and jog, walk, or do any outdoor physical activity you enjoy. A walk in nature always brightens the mood.
Go on an adventure with a friend. 38 Visit a town you have never been to, or go for a walk in the woods. Remember to practice good safety habits when exploring a new area and take a charged mobile phone with you.
Get chores and tasks out of the way. The holidays are one of the few times each year when most people have lots of free time. If you have no pressing commitments with family or friends, consider using your time to finish duties that you’ve been putting off for a long time. 39 Other good ideas include running errands, paying bills, re-organizing your closet, and servicing your car.
Get to know more people. If there’s no one around that you’d like to spend time with, don’t forget that you always have the option of making new friends. You might choose to do this at a social hang-out spot like a club, or at an event like a concert. Don’t be afraid to approach and talk to people you meet. 40
A.Step out into the fresh air.
B.Pick gentle exercise outside.
C.New friendships have to start somewhere!
D.Here are some ways to help you sit around.
E.Grab a companion and try to find cool places to explore.

It was an early winter morning. Joan was sleeping soundly when the phone rang in the living room. She rolled over and glanced at the clock on the wall—it was already nine o’clock. Every weekend morning, her mother had to work part-time in the cafe. Although Joan was still sleepy, she knew she had to get up. After all, she didn’t expect her brother Mike, who was sleeping like a log, to hear the phone. When she picked up the receiver, on the other end came the warmhearted greetings,“Good morning, my Dear!” Recognizing the voice from her father, Joan was immediately surrounded by a sense of joy and the sleepiness swept away.
Joan’s father was a seaman, who rarely came back. Working on the sea was really hard.Born in a not-rich family, Joan and Mike felt the stress of life but they were happy to enjoy the family atmosphere. “Good morning, Dad, what’s up ” Joan said in an easy tone. “Today is your mother’s birthday, and I have ordered her a cake online and it should come to the house in one and half an hour. Do remember to take the cake.”
Hearing her father’s words, Joan felt a little ashamed. How she could forget Mum’s birthday! She took a glance at the dirty clothes piled on the sofa and the oily floor that hadn’t been mopped(拖地) for a few days—There was two hours before her mother came back. She calculated they had enough time to prepare a surprise for Mum.
Thinking of this, she felt full of excitement. “Well, Dad, now I’m going to wake Mike up. We will give Mum a surprise !” Joan hung up the phone with Dad, and hurriedly went to Mike’s room to share him her Big Cleaning plan. After listening to Joan, Mike readily accepted her idea.
注意:(1)续写词数应为150左右;(2)开头已给出。
The Big Cleaning plan began.
With the cake placed on the table, Mum came in.
