Besides, I don’t know what your middle school was like, but high school teachers will not care about things such as how much homework you already have in one night. It’s best to just learn to deal with things and manage your time wisely so you can achieve everything you need.Frank, Aged 21I think almost every kid feels both nervous and excited before their first day. You will probably love it. I know I did. You should join in some sports or activities that will make your high school experience more enjoyable. Good luck!Eddie, Aged 20When I started high school I was really nervous too, especially since I had been home-schooled all through middle school and didn’t really know anyone, I suppose the best advice would be to just relax. The first couple of days can be a little bit hard, but things will become easier after you know it.David, Aged 19I’m not going to lie. The first day is kind of frightening. But you’ll get used to it. Don’t be afraid of anyone; upperclassmen will pick on you more if you let them know you’re afraid. Just take it easy. Making some friends and staying with them will greatly help you get used to high school quickly. After the first week it’s really not bad at all. Don’t worry.1. What can we infer from Sharon about high school A. Teachers are quite strict.B. Students often stay up at night.C. Teachers provide little care for students.D. Students should make good use of their time.2. How did Eddie feel on his first day of high school A. Excited B. Bored. C. Worried. D. Relaxed.3. Who mentions the importance of friends A. Frank. B. David. C. Sharon. D. Eddie.【答案】1. D 2. C 3. B【解析】【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要通过几个高中生的真实经历来讲述如何快速适应高中生活。【1题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第一段最后一句“It’s best to just learn to deal with things and manage your time wisely so you can achieve everything you need to. (最好是学会聪明地处理事情和管理你的时间,这样你就可以完成你需要做的一切。)”可知,Sharon认为学生们应该好好地利用自己的时间。故选D项。【2题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第三段第一句“When I started high school I was really nervous too, especially since I had been home-schooled all through middle school and didn’t really know anyone (当我刚进高中时,我也非常紧张,尤其是因为我整个初中都是在家里接受教育,我不认识任何人)”可知,Eddie刚进高中的时候感到很焦虑紧张。故选C项。【3题详解】细节理解题。根据文章最后一段第六句“Making some friends and staying with them will greatly help you get used to high school quickly. (交一些朋友,和他们呆在一起会大大帮助你很快适应高中生活。)”可知,David提到了朋友。故选B项。BWhen I was in middle school, I was on a family vacation in Washington DC. I found there was a homeless man down the street.On our final day in the city, when my parents went for an evening walk, I went out of our hotel room and ran down the street to the homeless man.He looked at me, surely not expecting anything from a middle school girl. I asked him what he wanted to have for dinner. He replied “Bread and water”. I ran into the store and bought a big bag of bread and a bottle of water. I ran back with a smile on my face and handed the bag and the bottle to him. His smile has been in my mind ever since.I came back to the hotel room and when my parents returned, my dad told me he had a story for me. He asked if I remembered the homeless man down the street from our hotel and I shyly nodded. He then told me a story. As they were returning from their walk, they saw the homeless man was sharing a bag full of food with other homeless people around. They were all smiling and laughing as they ate.I smiled at my dad but I have never told him to this day the other half of the story. Till today, I still haven't forgotten that man's smile but I wish I had the courage to do this more often. One small kind action can begin a ripple effect (连锁反应) of kindness. So please, share a smile and do something kind for the people in need.4. Why did the author go to Washington DC A. To visit her parents. B. To go on a vacation.C. To do some shopping. D. To meet with friends.5. When the author went to see the homeless man, her parents ________A. were having a walk B. were staying in the hotelC. had gone back home D. were in a food store6.

The story inspires the readers to________A. help those in need B. seek for their dreamsC. value what they have D. face difficulties bravely【答案】4. B 5. A 6. C 7. A【解析】【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述作者和父母遇到路边的一个无家可归的人,随后作者偷偷地给他买了食物,而那个无家可归的人和周围其他无家可归的人一起分享了食物,他们充满了快乐。故事告诉我们只是一个小小的善良的举动,可以带来一系列好的效果。【4题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段的“When I was in middle school, I was on a family vacation in Washington DC.(当我上中学的时候,我和家人在华盛顿特区度假)”可知,作者去华盛顿特区是去度假,故选B。【5题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段“On our final day in the city, when my parents went for an evening walk, I went out of our hotel room and ran down the street to the homeless man.(在我们在这座城市的最后一天,当我的父母晚上出去散步时,我走出旅馆房间,沿着街道跑向那个无家可归的人)”可知,当作者去见那个无家可归的人时,她的父母正在散步,故选A。【6题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段的“I smiled at my dad but I have never told him to this day the other half of the story.(我朝爸爸笑了笑,但直到今天我还没有告诉他故事的另一半)”可知,作者没有告诉父母无家可归的人的食物是自己买的,即她向父母保守了秘密,故选C。【7题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段的“So please, share a smile and do something kind for the people in need.(所以,请分享一个微笑,为需要帮助的人做些好事)”可知,这个故事鼓舞读者要多帮助有需要的人,故选A。CLivestreaming (直播) through channels such as Amazon Live and QVC is an increasingly popular way to sell goods online. It usually lasts between 5 and 10 minutes, and someone promotes a product. Viewers can then readily buy it by clicking on a link.We analyzed (分析) 99451 sales cases on a livestream selling platform and matched them with actual sales cases. In terms of time, that is equal to over 2 million 30-second television advertisements.To determine the emotional (情绪) expression of the salesperson, we used two deep learning models: a face model and an emotion model. The face model discovers the presence or absence of a face in a frame of a video stream. The emotion model then determines the probability that a face is exhibiting any of the six basic human emotions: happiness, sadness, surprise, anger, fear or disgust. For example, smiling signals a high probability of happiness, while an off-putting expression usually points toward anger.We wanted to see the effect of emotions expressed at different times in the sales cases so we counted probabilities for each emotion for all 62 million frames in our database. We then combined these probabilities with other possible aspects that might drive sales — such as price and product characteristics — to judge the effect of emotion.We found that, perhaps unsurprisingly, when salespeople show more negative emotions — such as anger and disgust — the volume of sales went down. But we also found that a similar thing happened when the salespeople show high levels of positive emotions, such as happiness or surprise.A likely explanation, based on our research, is that smiling can be disgusting because it lacks true feelings and can reduce trust in the seller. A seller’s happiness may be taken as a sign that the seller is gaining interests at the customer’s expense.8. What can we know about the livestreaming to sell goods online A. It challenges the physical economy.B. It helps big company sell all goods.C. It is very convenient for the buyers.D. It helps the sellers develop fixed expressions.9. What does the underlined word “off-putting” mean in paragraph 3 A. Unhappy. B. Embarrassed.C. Surprised. D. Shy.10. How do customers feel about the seller’s smiling A. They feel thankful. B. They feel happy.C. They feel cheated. D. They feel so tired.11. Which of the following could be the best title for the text A. Livestreamers Sell Products SuccessfullyB. Smiling Can Increase the Sales in RealityC. Emotions and Faces: What’s the DifferenceD. Expressions Affect Selling Products Online【答案】8. C 9. A 10. C 11. D【解析】【导语】本文是说一篇明文。文章介绍了网络售货时,主播面部表情对网络销售效果的影响。【8题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段“Viewers can then readily buy it by clicking on a link(观众可以通过点击链接来购买)”可知,观众可以通过点击链接来购买东西,即网络购物对于消费者而言很方便。故选C项。【9题详解】词句猜测题。根据第三段“For example, smiling signals a high probability of happiness, while an expression usually points toward anger.(例如,微笑表示幸福的可能性很高,而 表情通常表示愤怒)”可知,本句中while引导让步状语从句,表“然而”,由后文anger可知,应是一个“不高兴”的表情。故选A项。【10题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段“We found that, perhaps unsurprisingly, when salespeople show more negative emotions — such as anger and disgust — the volume of sales went down. But we also found that a similar thing happened when the salespeople show high levels of positive emotions, such as happiness or surprise.(我们发现,当销售人员传达更多的负面情绪时——比如愤怒和厌恶——销售额就会下降,这也许并不令人意外。但我们也发现,当销售人员表现出高水平的积极情绪时,比如高兴或惊讶,也会发生类似的事情)”和第六段“A likely explanation, based on our research, is that smiling can be disgusting because it lacks true feelings and can reduce trust in the seller. A seller’s happiness may be taken as a sign that the seller is gaining interests at the customer’s expense.(根据我们的研究,一个可能的解释是,微笑可能很恶心,因为它缺乏真实的感觉,会降低对卖家的信任。销售者的快乐可能被认为是一种迹象,表明销售者正在以顾客的损失为代价获取利益。)”可推断,消费者不喜欢卖家在直播中微笑是因为他们觉得被骗了。故选C项。【11题详解】主旨大意题。根据第五段“We found that, perhaps unsurprisingly, when salespeople show more negative emotions — such as anger and disgust — the volume of sales went down. But we also found that a similar thing happened when the salespeople show high levels of positive emotions, such as happiness or surprise.(我们发现,当销售人员传达更多的负面情绪时——比如愤怒和厌恶——销售额就会下降,这也许并不令人意外。但我们也发现,当销售人员表现出高水平的积极情绪时,比如高兴或惊讶,也会发生类似的事情)”及全文可知,文章主要介绍了网络售货时,主播面部表情对网络销售效果的影响!所以“Expressions Affect Selling Products Online(表情影响网上销售)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选D项。DYou’ve heard that plastic is polluting the oceans — between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean ecosystems every year. But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called “Strawpocalypse,” a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves, frozen mid-crash. Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled. Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source (来源) of plastic pollution, but they’ve recently come under fire because most people don’t need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled. Every straw that’s part of Von Wong’s artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes. Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear.In a piece from 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate (说明) a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload’s worth of plastic enters the ocean. For this work, titled “Truckload of Plastic,” Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they’d been dumped (倾倒) from a truck all at once.Von Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to reduce their plastic footprint.12. What are Von Wong’s artworks intended for A. Beautifying the city he lives in. B. Introducing eco-friendly products.C. Drawing public attention to plastic waste. D. Reducing garbage on the beach.13. Why does the author discuss plastic straws in paragraph 3 A. To show the difficulty of their recycling.B. To explain why they are useful.C. To voice his views on modern art.D. To find a substitute for them.14. What effect would “Truckload of Plastic” have on viewers A. Calming. B. Disturbing.C. Refreshing. D. Challenging.15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text A. Artists’ Opinions on Plastic SafetyB. Media Interest in Contemporary ArtC. Responsibility Demanded of Big CompaniesD. Ocean Plastics Transformed into Sculptures【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. D【解析】【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了艺术家Benjamin Von Wong使用海洋中的塑料垃圾制作了一个巨型雕塑,极其震撼,引发人们对塑料污染的反思。【12题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段“He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.(他用塑料垃圾建造巨大的雕塑,迫使观众重新审视他们与一次性塑料产品的关系)”可知,Von Wong用塑料垃圾制作雕塑,是想让人们重新审视与一次性塑料制品的关系,引起公众对塑料垃圾的关注。故选C项。【13题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段“Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled. Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source (来源) of plastic pollution, but they’ve recently come under fire because most people don’t need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled. (全球只有9%的塑料垃圾被回收。塑料吸管绝不是最大的塑料污染源,但它们最近却受到了抨击,因为大多数人不需要吸管喝饮料,而且由于它们体积小、重量轻,无法回收利用)”可知,塑料吸管体积小、重量轻,无法回收利用。由此推知,作者在第三段讨论塑料吸管是为了展示它们回收的难度。故选A项。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“In a piece form 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate (说明) a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload’s worth of plastic enters the ocean. For this work, titled “Truckload of Plastic,” Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they’d been dumped (倾倒) from a truck all at once.(在2018年的一个作品中,Von Wong想要说明一个具体的统计数字:每60秒,就有一卡车塑料进入海洋。这项名为“一卡车塑料”的作品,Von Wong和一群志愿者收集了一万多块塑料,然后把它们绑在一起,让它们看起来像是同时从卡车上倾倒下来的)”可知,这个作品以创新的方式让人们了解到塑料垃圾以很快的速度和很大的量倾入海洋,刷新了观众对海洋塑料污染的认知。由此推知,这个作品会让观众对塑料垃圾进入海洋造成污染这件事感到不安。故选B项。【15题详解】主旨大意题。根据第一段“But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.(但一根塑料吸管或一个塑料杯真的有什么区别吗?艺术家Benjamin Von Wong想让你知道,它确实如此。他用塑料垃圾建造巨大的雕塑,迫使观众重新审视他们与一次性塑料产品的关系)”及下文陈述可知,艺术家Benjamin Von Wong通过使用海洋塑料垃圾制作巨型雕塑的方法,引发人们对塑料污染的反思。由此可知,“海洋塑料变成雕塑”可以作文章标题。故选D项。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。Tricks To Becoming A Patient PersonHere’s a riddle: What do traffic jams, long lines and waiting for a vacation to start all have in common There is one answer. ___16___.In the Digital Age, we’re used to having what we need immediately and right at our fingertips.

And the only way for us to get into the habit of waiting is to practice. ___18___. Put off watching your favorite show until the weekend or wait 10 extra minutes before going for that cake. You’ll soon find that the more patience you practice, the more you start to apply it to other, more annoying situations.● ___19___.So many of us have the belief that being comfortable is the only state we will tolerate, and when we experience something outside of our comfort zone, we get impatient about the circumstances. You should learn to say to yourself, “___20___.” You’ll then gradually become more patient.A. Find your causesB. Start with small tasksC. Accept the uncomfortableD. All this adds up to a state of hurryE. It can also help us practice more patienceF. This is merely uncomfortable, not intolerableG. They’re all situations where we could use a little extra patience【答案】16. G 17. E 18. B 19. C 20. F【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了变得耐心的一些方法。【16题详解】根据上文“Here’s a riddle: What do traffic jams, long lines and waiting for a vacation to start all have in common There’s one answer. (这里有一个谜语:交通堵塞、排长队和等待假期开始有什么共同之处?答案只有一个)”可知,本句说明上文谜语的答案,结合“交通堵塞、排长队和等待假期”这些情况可知都需要耐心。故G选项“在这些情况下,我们都需要一点额外的耐心”符合语境,故选G。【17题详解】根据上文“Thankfulness has a lot of benefits: Research shows it makes us happier, less stressed and even more optimistic.(感恩有很多好处:研究表明,感恩让我们更快乐,压力更小,甚至更乐观)”以及后文““Showing thankfulness can foster self-control,” said Ye Li, researcher at the University of California. (加州大学的研究员叶丽说:“表达感激可以培养自我控制能力。”)”可知,上文提到了感恩的诸多好处,可知本句继续说明感恩的好处:它还可以帮助我们练习更多的耐心。E选项中It指代上文Thankfulness。故E选项“它还可以帮助我们练习更多的耐心”符合语境,故选E。【18题详解】根据上文“And the only way for us to get into the habit of waiting is to practice. (我们养成等待习惯的唯一方法就是练习)”以及后文“Put off watching your favorite show until the weekend or wait 10 extra minutes before going for that cake. (把你最喜欢的节目推迟到周末再看,或者多等10分钟再去吃蛋糕)”可知,后文列举的事情都是日常的小事,说明要从小事开始练习等待,故B选项“从小任务开始”符合语境,故选B。【19题详解】根据本段内容“So many of us have the belief that being comfortable is the only state we will tolerate, and when we experience something outside of our comfort zone, we get impatient about the circumstances. (我们中的许多人都认为舒适是我们唯一能容忍的状态,当我们经历舒适区之外的事情时,我们会对环境失去耐心)”可知,本段提到了舒适是我们唯一能容忍的状态,结合前文的小标题都是祈使句可知,本段的主旨与接受不舒适相关,C选项中uncomfortable对应后文comfortable。故C选项“接受不舒服”符合语境,故选C。【20题详解】根据上文“You should learn to say to yourself (你应该学会对自己说……)”以及后文“You’ll then gradually become more patient. (然后你会逐渐变得更有耐心)”结合本段主要说明的是不舒服的状态,可知,本句为对自己所说的话与接受不舒服相关,故F选项“这仅仅是不舒服,而不是无法忍受”符合语境,故选F。【点睛】第三部分 语言运用 (共两节,满分30分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。One young person, who was well educated, went for a job as a manager in a big company.

She couldn’t help weeping (哭泣) sorrowfully (悲伤地) when she thought of the scolding (责骂) from her mother.Having wandered (游荡) aimlessly in the street for hours, she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat.She stood beside a stand (货摊) for a while, watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business.

I’ll treat you today,” said the man “Come in.” The seller brought her a bowl of noodles, the smell so attractive. As she was eating, Jenny cried silently. “What is it ” asked the man kindly. “Nothing. Actually, I was just touched by your kindness!” said Jenny as she wiped (擦拭) her tears. “Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles, while my mother drove me out of the house.She showed no care for me. She is so merciless (无情的) compared to a stranger!” Hearing the words, the seller smiled, “Girl, do you really think so I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot. But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby. Can you number the times she cooked for you Have you expressed your gratitude (感激) to her ” Jenny sat there, speechless and numb (麻木的) with shock; she remembered her mother’s familiar face and weathered (变形) hands. “Why didn’t I think of that A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel indebted (感激的).

She remembered her rudeness to her mother, and she just realized that all the scolding from her mother was due to the fact that her mother really cared a lot about her. Tears rolled down her cheeks.Paragraph 2:A gentle touch on her hair called her mind back. She raised her head to see the familiar face and the worried eyes. “Here you come! I’ve been looking for you,” came the tired voice. Jenny couldn’t help but throw herself into her mother’s arms. “I’m sorry and thank you for all you have done for me.” She expressed the sincere apology and the great gratitude.

Besides, I don’t know what your middle school was like, but high school teachers will not care about things such as how much homework you already have in one night. It’s best to just learn to deal with things and manage your time wisely so you can achieve everything you need.Frank, Aged 21I think almost every kid feels both nervous and excited before their first day. You will probably love it. I know I did. You should join in some sports or activities that will make your high school experience more enjoyable. Good luck!Eddie, Aged 20When I started high school I was really nervous too, especially since I had been home-schooled all through middle school and didn’t really know anyone, I suppose the best advice would be to just relax. The first couple of days can be a little bit hard, but things will become easier after you know it.David, Aged 19I’m not going to lie. The first day is kind of frightening. But you’ll get used to it. Don’t be afraid of anyone; upperclassmen will pick on you more if you let them know you’re afraid. Just take it easy. Making some friends and staying with them will greatly help you get used to high school quickly. After the first week it’s really not bad at all. Don’t worry.1. What can we infer from Sharon about high school A. Teachers are quite strict.B. Students often stay up at night.C. Teachers provide little care for students.D. Students should make good use of their time.2. How did Eddie feel on his first day of high school A. Excited B. Bored. C. Worried. D. Relaxed.3. Who mentions the importance of friends A. Frank. B. David. C. Sharon. D. Eddie.BWhen I was in middle school, I was on a family vacation in Washington DC. I found there was a homeless man down the street.On our final day in the city, when my parents went for an evening walk, I went out of our hotel room and ran down the street to the homeless man.He looked at me, surely not expecting anything from a middle school girl. I asked him what he wanted to have for dinner. He replied “Bread and water”. I ran into the store and bought a big bag of bread and a bottle of water. I ran back with a smile on my face and handed the bag and the bottle to him. His smile has been in my mind ever since.I came back to the hotel room and when my parents returned, my dad told me he had a story for me. He asked if I remembered the homeless man down the street from our hotel and I shyly nodded. He then told me a story. As they were returning from their walk, they saw the homeless man was sharing a bag full of food with other homeless people around. They were all smiling and laughing as they ate.I smiled at my dad but I have never told him to this day the other half of the story. Till today, I still haven't forgotten that man's smile but I wish I had the courage to do this more often. One small kind action can begin a ripple effect (连锁反应) of kindness. So please, share a smile and do something kind for the people in need.4. Why did the author go to Washington DC A. To visit her parents. B. To go on a vacation.C. To do some shopping. D. To meet with friends.5. When the author went to see the homeless man, her parents ________A. were having a walk B. were staying in the hotelC. had gone back home D. were in a food store6. It can be inferred from the passage that________A homeless men usually live a happy life B. the author's father was proud of herC. the author kept a secret to her parents D. the author was paid back by the homeless man7. The story inspires the readers to________A. help those in need B. seek for their dreamsC. value what they have D. face difficulties bravelyCLivestreaming (直播) through channels such as Amazon Live and QVC is an increasingly popular way to sell goods online. It usually lasts between 5 and 10 minutes, and someone promotes a product. Viewers can then readily buy it by clicking on a link.We analyzed (分析) 99,451 sales cases on a livestream selling platform and matched them with actual sales cases. In terms of time, that is equal to over 2 million 30-second television advertisements.To determine the emotional (情绪的) expression of the salesperson, we used two deep learning models: a face model and an emotion model. The face model discovers the presence or absence of a face in a frame of a video stream. The emotion model then determines the probability that a face is exhibiting any of the six basic human emotions: happiness, sadness, surprise, anger, fear or disgust. For example, smiling signals a high probability of happiness, while an off-putting expression usually points toward anger.We wanted to see the effect of emotions expressed at different times in the sales cases so we counted probabilities for each emotion for all 62 million frames in our database. We then combined these probabilities with other possible aspects that might drive sales — such as price and product characteristics — to judge the effect of emotion.We found that, perhaps unsurprisingly, when salespeople show more negative emotions — such as anger and disgust — the volume of sales went down. But we also found that a similar thing happened when the salespeople show high levels of positive emotions, such as happiness or surprise.A likely explanation, based on our research, is that smiling can be disgusting because it lacks true feelings and can reduce trust in the seller. A seller’s happiness may be taken as a sign that the seller is gaining interests at the customer’s expense.8. What can we know about the livestreaming to sell goods online A. It challenges the physical economy.B. It helps big company sell all goods.C. It is very convenient for the buyers.D. It helps the sellers develop fixed expressions.9. What does the underlined word “off-putting” mean in paragraph 3 A. Unhappy. B. Embarrassed.C. Surprised. D. Shy.10. How do customers feel about the seller’s smiling A. They feel thankful. B. They feel happy.C. They feel cheated. D. They feel so tired.11. Which of the following could be the best title for the text A. Livestreamers Sell Products SuccessfullyB. Smiling Can Increase the Sales in RealityC. Emotions and Faces: What’s the DifferenceD. Expressions Affect Selling Products OnlineDYou’ve heard that plastic is polluting the oceans — between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean ecosystems every year. But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference Artist Benjamin Von Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called “Strawpocalypse,” a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves, frozen mid-crash. Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled. Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source (来源) of plastic pollution, but they’ve recently come under fire because most people don’t need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled. Every straw that’s part of Von Wong’s artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes. Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear.In a piece from 2018, Von Wong wanted to illustrate (说明) a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload’s worth of plastic enters the ocean. For this work, titled “Truckload of Plastic,” Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they’d been dumped (倾倒) from a truck all at once.Von Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to reduce their plastic footprint.12 What are Von Wong’s artworks intended for A. Beautifying the city he lives in. B. Introducing eco-friendly products.C. Drawing public attention to plastic waste. D. Reducing garbage on the beach.13. Why does the author discuss plastic straws in paragraph 3 A. To show the difficulty of their recycling.B. To explain why they are useful.C. To voice his views on modern art.D. To find a substitute for them.14. What effect would “Truckload of Plastic” have on viewers A. Calming. B. Disturbing.C. Refreshing. D. Challenging.15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text A. Artists’ Opinions on Plastic SafetyB. Media Interest in Contemporary ArtC. Responsibility Demanded of Big CompaniesD.

However, with no money in hand, she gave a sigh (叹气) and had to leave. The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked, “Hey, girl, you want to have the noodles ” “Oh, yes, but I don’t have money on me,” she replied.“That’s nothing. I’ll treat you today,” said the man “Come in.” The seller brought her a bowl of noodles, the smell so attractive. As she was eating, Jenny cried silently. “What is it ” asked the man kindly. “Nothing. Actually, I was just touched by your kindness!” said Jenny as she wiped (擦拭) her tears. “Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles, while my mother drove me out of the house.She showed no care for me. She is so merciless (无情的) compared to a stranger!” Hearing the words, the seller smiled, “Girl, do you really think so I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot. But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby. Can you number the times she cooked for you Have you expressed your gratitude (感激) to her ” Jenny sat there, speechless and numb (麻木的) with shock; she remembered her mother’s familiar face and weathered (变形) hands. “Why didn’t I think of that A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel indebted (感激的). Why haven’t I thanked my mum for what she has done for me ” On the way home, Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.Paragraph 1:Approaching the doorway,____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Paragraph 2:A gentle touch on her hair called her mind back.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 展开更多...... 收起↑ 资源列表 精品解析:江西省大余县梅关中学2023-2024学年高一上学期11月期中英语试题(原卷版).docx 精品解析:江西省大余县梅关中学2023-2024学年高一上学期11月期中英语试题(解析版).docx
