Section B 14%
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
In many countries of the world, people can confidently tell you the meaning of their town or city, but most people who live in Manchester, Oxford or Birmingham would not be able to explain what the name of their city means. The name of every British town and city, however, has a long history.
Two thousand years ago, most people living in Britain were Celts. Even the word “Britain” is Celtic. Then the Romans arrived and built camps which became cities called “castra”. This is why there are so many place names in England which end in “-chester” or “-caster”— Manchester, for example.
The Romans never reached Wales or Scotland, and many place names there are Celtic. For example, Welsh place names that begin with “Llan” come from the Celtic word for church.
After the Romans left Britain, it was attacked by tribes called the Anglo-Saxons, who were from the area of Europe that is now Germany and Holland. Without the Roman army, it was impossible to protect the country from these people. The names of their villages often ended in “-ham” or “-ton”. Some got their name from the leader of the village, so Birmingham, for example, means “Beormund’s village”.
The Anglo-Saxons were farmers and the landscape was very important to them, so we have villages called Upton (“village on a hill”— a good place to build a village) and Moreton (“village by lake”, where floods could make life tough). Place names that end in “-ford” (a place where you could cross a river) also describe the location of Anglo-Saxon villages.
Twelve hundred years ago, the Vikings came to England from Scandinavia. They traded with the Anglo-Saxons but lived in their own villages. These often ended in “-by” or “-thorpe”. The name “Kirkby” means “a village with a church” and Scunthorpe was the village of a man called Skuma.
Finally, in 1066, England became Norman — the Normans gave us the place name “grange”, which means farm.
And how about London Experts cannot agree. The Romans called the city Londinium, but they were not the first inhabitants. People once believed that the United Kingdom’s capital city got its name from the castle of a King called Lud, but this is very unlikely. Our guess today is that the name comes from a Celtic word meaning a fast-flowing river. However, like a number of British place names, its history is lost in time.
54. According to the passage, Stratford-upon-Avon is most likely a town _______.
A. on a hill B. near a castle C. built beside a river D. with a church
55. Which of the following shows the correct order of the arrival of inhabitants in Britain
A. The Celts—The Romans—The Vikings—The Normans—The Anglo Saxons.
B. The Romans—The Celts—The Vikings—The Anglo Saxons—The Normans.
C. The Celts—The Romans—The Anglo Saxons—The Vikings—The Normans.
D. The Romans—The Anglo Saxons—The Celts—The Normans—The Vikings.
56. According to the passage where did the name for London come from
A. It is puzzling and hard to confirm for sure.
B. It comes from the term for a fast-flowing river.
C. The name is short for Londinium.
D. The name is from the castle of a King.
(B)
High school freshmen always have a lot of questions on their minds. "What can I do when I grow up " is one of them. It's definitely not too early to start thinking about his tough question. The following tips may help equip you for your future career.
Think beyond grades
Getting good grades in high school is important, but focusing only on straight A's could go wrong. Spending too much time on your schoolwork will leave you little time to explore opportunities outside of the classroom. Extracurricular activities are necessary because they serve as a form of career exploration. They can help you figure out your work preferences, like whether you are a "people person" or prefer to work alone. Nowadays, most well-known colleges care about candidates' experiences as much as their grades.
Seek advice from grown-ups
Talk to your parents, teachers and school counselors about how they started their careers. Even though you're interested in the careers they are in, it would be useful to learn about the process which got them where they are now. If you find your friend's mother doing a worthwhile job by chance, ask her if job shadowing is possible in her company during vacation. After all, seeing a typical day in the position you have an interest in can be an invaluable experience.
Start your search online
If you really have no idea what you can do when you grow up, take online career quizzes to get ideas about what professions naturally match your skills, interests and personality traits. For the time being, you just need to focus on finding a field or two that interests you, rather than a specific career. Chances are you'll change your mind several times before finding a career that you want to stick to. Starting to explore career options now can at least help you decide what your potential major might be.
57. Spending some time taking part in after-school activities can help high school students ________.
A. get A's in all subjects B. explore their work preferences
C. have access to prestigious universities D. get along with their classmates
58. Grown-ups may help high school students by _________.
A. starting a business with them B. teaching them occupational skills
C. sharing their career paths with them D. providing an opportunity for job shadowing
59. It is suggested that high school students find out their _______ from online career quizzes.
A. possible professions B. main disadvantages
C. specific occupations D. ideal majors
60. This article was probably written by a __________.
A. college professor B. school counselor
C. advertising manager D. computer programmer
Section C 8%
Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
Tips to Keep Your Personal Items Safe While Travelling
You might be surprised to hear that even in the limited space of an airplane, thefts still do occur. In a case reported, two men on board a flight were arrested after being suspected of stealing cash from fellow passengers’ mid-flight. ___61___ While airlines don’t advertise the fact, they’re not as rare as you may think. There are some tips to ensure you don’t become the victim of such crimes.
___62___ This is especially important if you have a black, featureless bag. For example, you can sew a symbol on it or write your initials on the bag.
Keep your valuables such as cash, your ID and passport, and jewellery in a small bag that you can place under the seat in front of you. Rest your feet on your bag to make sure no one gets close to the bag. ___63___ It takes just a few seconds for experienced thieves to steal your bag, so never give them the opportunity by leaving it unattended.
___64___ For example, you can divide your cash into three portions and keep some in your small bag, some in a pair of jeans that’s rolled up in your checked baggage, and some in your toiletries bag (化妆包). In this way, even if you lose one stash of money, you will not be left with absolutely no cash.
A. To ensure you get enough storage room, try to board the flight early.
B. Bring it with you whenever you leave your seat.
C. Thieves won’t spend too long on locked bags as it may draw attention to themselves.
D. Cases like this are known as in-flight, or mid-flight thefts.

Understanding them will keep you safe from evil spirits—if you believe in such things—and impress your American friends when you mention them.
Like the superstitions in other cultures, American superstitions often involve the things important in daily life, such as health, numbers and marriage. For example, have you ever had a cough that would not go away According to one American superstition, you should take a piece of hair and put it between two slices of buttered bread. Next, feed this hair sandwich to a dog and say, “Eat well, you hound, may you be sick and I am sound.” This will trick the evil spirits and help your cough. It will also raise eyebrows if you try it.

【解析】
【详解】考查时态和语态。句意：正在建造的体育馆很快就要对游客开放了。工作快完成了。此处在which引导的限制性定语从句中作谓语，由will be open to tourists soon可知，体育馆正在建造还没有完成，且从句主语which代指先行词the gym和从句谓语动词build是被动关系，应用现在进行时的被动语态，主语是单数，be动词应用is，故填is being built。
18. The book has been well-received since it ________ (come) on the market in 2019. （所给单词适当形式填空）
【答案】came
【解析】
【详解】考查动词时态。句意：这本书自2019年上市以来深受欢迎。since引导的从句中有明显的时间状语时，主句通常用现在完成时，而从句用一般过去时。故填came。

Section B 14%
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
In many countries of the world, people can confidently tell you the meaning of their town or city, but most people who live in Manchester, Oxford or Birmingham would not be able to explain what the name of their city means. The name of every British town and city, however, has a long history.
Two thousand years ago, most people living in Britain were Celts. Even the word “Britain” is Celtic. Then the Romans arrived and built camps which became cities called “castra”. This is why there are so many place names in England which end in “-chester” or “-caster”— Manchester, for example.
The Romans never reached Wales or Scotland, and many place names there are Celtic. For example, Welsh place names that begin with “Llan” come from the Celtic word for church.
After the Romans left Britain, it was attacked by tribes called the Anglo-Saxons, who were from the area of Europe that is now Germany and Holland. Without the Roman army, it was impossible to protect the country from these people. The names of their villages often ended in “-ham” or “-ton”. Some got their name from the leader of the village, so Birmingham, for example, means “Beormund’s village”.
The Anglo-Saxons were farmers and the landscape was very important to them, so we have villages called Upton (“village on a hill”— a good place to build a village) and Moreton (“village by lake”, where floods could make life tough). Place names that end in “-ford” (a place where you could cross a river) also describe the location of Anglo-Saxon villages.
Twelve hundred years ago, the Vikings came to England from Scandinavia. They traded with the Anglo-Saxons but lived in their own villages. These often ended in “-by” or “-thorpe”. The name “Kirkby” means “a village with a church” and Scunthorpe was the village of a man called Skuma.
Finally, in 1066, England became Norman — the Normans gave us the place name “grange”, which means farm.
And how about London Experts cannot agree. The Romans called the city Londinium, but they were not the first inhabitants. People once believed that the United Kingdom’s capital city got its name from the castle of a King called Lud, but this is very unlikely. Our guess today is that the name comes from a Celtic word meaning a fast-flowing river. However, like a number of British place names, its history is lost in time.
54. According to the passage, Stratford-upon-Avon is most likely a town _______.
A. on a hill B. near a castle C. built beside a river D. with a church
55. Which of the following shows the correct order of the arrival of inhabitants in Britain
A. The Celts—The Romans—The Vikings—The Normans—The Anglo Saxons.
B. The Romans—The Celts—The Vikings—The Anglo Saxons—The Normans.
C. The Celts—The Romans—The Anglo Saxons—The Vikings—The Normans.
D. The Romans—The Anglo Saxons—The Celts—The Normans—The Vikings.
56. According to the passage, where did the name for London come from
A. It is puzzling and hard to confirm for sure.
B. It comes from the term for a fast-flowing river.
C. The name is short for Londinium.
D. The name is from the castle of a King.
【答案】54. C 55. C 56. A
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了英国城镇的名字的由来。
【54题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段“Place names that end in “-ford” (a place where you could cross a river) also describe the location of Anglo-Saxon villages.(以“ford”结尾的地名(你可以过河的地方)也描述了盎格鲁-撒克逊村庄的位置)”可知，以ford结尾的地名和河流相关。由此推知，Stratford-upon-Avon极有可能是一座建在河边的小镇。故选C。
【55题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Two thousand years ago, most people living in Britain were Celts. Even the word “Britain” is Celtic. Then the Romans arrived and built camps which became cities called “castra”. (两千年前，大多数居住在英国的人都是凯尔特人。甚至“不列颠”这个词也是凯尔特语。后来，罗马人来到这里，建造了营地，这些营地后来成为了被称为“卡斯特拉”的城市)”可知，最先住在英国的人是凯尔特人，然后是罗马人；再根据文章第四段“After the Romans left Britain, it was attacked by tribes called the Anglo-Saxons, who were from the area of Europe that is now Germany and Holland.(罗马人离开不列颠后，它遭到了盎格鲁-撒克逊部落的袭击，这些部落来自现在的欧洲地区，即德国和荷兰)”可知，罗马人之后是盎格鲁撒克逊人；根据文章第六段“Twelve hundred years ago, the Vikings came to England from Scandinavia.(1200年前，维京人从斯堪的纳维亚来到英格兰)”可知，盎格鲁撒克逊人之后是维京人；最后根据文章第七段“Finally, in 1066, England became Norman—the Normans gave us the place name “grange”, which means farm.(最后，在1066年，英格兰变成了诺曼，诺曼人给我们起了一个地名“grange”，意思是农场)”可知，最后到的是诺曼人。故选C。
【56题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“And how about London Experts cannot agree. The Romans called the city Londinium, but they were not the first inhabitants. People once believed that the United Kingdom’s capital city got its name from the castle of a King called Lud, but this is very unlikely. Our guess today is that the name comes from a Celtic word meaning a fast-flowing river. However, like a number of British place names, its history is lost in time.(伦敦怎么样？专家们对此并不认同。罗马人称这座城市为Londinium，但他们并不是第一批居民。人们曾经认为，英国首都的名字来自一个名叫路德的国王的城堡，但这是非常不可能的。我们今天猜测这个名字来自凯尔特语，意思是湍急的河流。然而，就像许多英国地名一样，它的历史在时间中消失了)”可推知，伦敦这一名字的由来很难定论。故选A。
(B)
High school freshmen always have a lot of questions on their minds. "What can I do when I grow up " is one of them. It's definitely not too early to start thinking about his tough question. The following tips may help equip you for your future career.

Nowadays, most well-known colleges care about candidates' experiences as much as their grades.
Seek advice from grown-ups
Talk to your parents, teachers and school counselors about how they started their careers. Even though you're interested in the careers they are in, it would be useful to learn about the process which got them where they are now. If you find your friend's mother doing a worthwhile job by chance, ask her if job shadowing is possible in her company during vacation. After all, seeing a typical day in the position you have an interest in can be an invaluable experience.
Start your search online
If you really have no idea what you can do when you grow up, take online career quizzes to get ideas about what professions naturally match your skills, interests and personality traits. For the time being, you just need to focus on finding a field or two that interests you, rather than a specific career. Chances are you'll change your mind several times before finding a career that you want to stick to. Starting to explore career options now can at least help you decide what your potential major might be.
