【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段下第二个黑点的内容“People who aren’t in the hospital but are very sick with the flu”(那些不在医院但是感冒很严重的人)可知,对于感冒很严重的未在医院的人而言,需要服用感冒药。故选C。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中第三个黑点中的内容“Relenza is an inhaled (吸入的) powder that is approved to treat the flu for people aged 7 years and older. This flu medicine tends to be less common because of how it is given. Side effects of Relenza include diarrhea, and feeling sick.”(Relenza 是一种被批准用于治疗7岁及以上人群流感的吸入性粉末。这种流感药由于给药方式的原因,往往不那么常见。Relenza 的副作用包括腹泻和不舒服。)可知,Relenza是一种吸入性粉末,其给药方式不常见,故选B。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据这四种药物的 Side effects(副作用)都包含diarrhea(腹泻)。可知这四种药的共同点是有相似的副作用,故选D。

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了布朗为了寻找消失的苹果种类的努力。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“The consumer and technological shifts of the 20th century reduced American apple offerings. Orchards (果园) were abandoned, destroyed, or lost to growing forest.”(20世纪的消费者和技术转变减少了美国苹果的供应。果园被遗弃,被摧毁,或者因为森林的生长而消失。)可知,森林的扩张可能是苹果种类减少的一个原因。故选C。
【5题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段中“Brown refers to these varieties as “Lost Heritage Apples,” apples which have not been documented or clearly known since about 1930.”(布朗把这些苹果品种称为“消失的传统苹果”,这种苹果自1930年以来就没有文献记载,也没有人清楚地知道它们的名字。)第四段“Brown began his website Apple Search in search of these lost pieces of culinary (食物的) history. He spends much of his time driving around, literally knocking on doors and talking about apples. At times, Brown heads off for an old orchard mentioned in historical records. Other times, he follows the word of mouth as people whisper of apple trees they knew in their youth.”(布朗开始了他的网站Apple Search 来寻找这些失落的食物历史片段。他大部分时间都在开车,敲门,谈论苹果。有时,布朗会前往历史记载中提到的一个老果园。其他时候,当人们谈论他们年轻时认识的苹果树时,他也会跟随他们的口耳相传。)可知,本段主要讲述了布朗为了找寻消失的苹果种类所作的努力。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“For the past 20 years, he has devoted his time and efforts to hunting down rare and lost heritage apples across the east coast.”(在过去的20年里,他把自己的时间和精力投入到在东海岸寻找稀有和遗失的传统苹果上。)可知,布朗是有责任心,有决心的。故选C。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,结合第一段最后一句“For the past 20 years, he has devoted his time and efforts to hunting down rare and lost heritage apples across the east coast.”(在过去的20年里,他把自己的时间和精力投入到在东海岸寻找稀有和遗失的传统苹果上。)及下文对布朗寻找失踪的苹果品种所付出的努力,可知,本文主要讲述了布朗为了寻找消失的苹果种类的努力,所以文章的标题可以用“苹果搜寻者”,故选A。
【答案】8. C 9. C 10. A 11. C
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要向人们介绍了一项研究的结果:在一份关于湖泊颜色的全球报告中,研究人员估计地球上大约三分之一的湖泊是蓝色的。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“But, should average summer air temperatures rise by a few degrees, some of those clear waters could turn a cloudy green or brown”(但是,如果夏季平均气温上升几度,一些清澈的海水可能会变成暗绿色或棕色)可知,湖水颜色的改变是由于海水温度的升高,故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Yang and colleagues used satellite photos from 2013 to 2020 to analyze the color of more than 85,000 lakes around the world. Because storms and seasons can temporarily affect a lake’s color, the researchers focused on the most frequent color observed for each lake over the seven-year period. The researchers also created an interactive online map that can be used to explore the colors of these lakes. ”(杨和他的同事利用从2013年到2020年的卫星照片分析了世界上超过85,000个湖泊的颜色。由于风暴和季节可以暂时影响湖泊的颜色,研究人员将重点放在七年间观察到的每个湖泊最常见的颜色上。研究人员还创建了一个互动的在线地图,可以用来探索这些湖泊的颜色。)可知,在研究中,研究人员通过分析长达七年的卫星照片,进而得出了研究结果。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“If some lakes do become less blue, people will probably lose some of the resources they have come to value, O’Reilly says, who is an ecologist at Illinois State University. Lakes are often used for drinking water, food or recreation. If the water has more algae, it could be unappealing for play or more costly to clean for drinking. But the color changes wouldn’t necessarily mean that the lakes are any less healthy. “Humans don’t value lots of algae in a lake, but if you’re a certain type of fish species, you might be like ‘this is great’” O’Reilly says.”(奥莱利是伊利诺伊州立大学的生态学家,他说,如果一些湖泊的确变得不那么蓝了,人们可能会失去一些他们已经开始重视的资源。湖泊通常用于饮用水,食物或娱乐。如果水中有更多的藻类,那么在湖泊中娱乐就没有了吸引力,或者要获得清洁的饮用水的成本更高。但是颜色的变化并不意味着湖泊就不那么健康了。奥莱利说:“人类并不看重湖中的大量藻类,但如果你是某种鱼类,你可能会说‘这真是太棒了’。”)可知,在奥莱利看来,湖泊的颜色的变化未必就是一种灾难,要视情况而言。所以对于湖水颜色的变化,奥莱利的态度是客观的。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。结合第一段“In a global report of lake color, researchers estimate that roughly one-third of Earth’s lakes are blue. But, should average summer air temperatures rise by a few degrees, some of those clear waters could turn a cloudy green or brown, the Learn reports in the Sept. 28 Geophysical Research Letters.”(在一份全球湖泊颜色报告中,研究人员估计大约三分之一的地球湖泊是蓝色的。但是,如果夏季平均气温上升几度,那么一些清澈的海水可能会变成暗绿色或棕色,Learn 在9月28日的《地球物理研究通讯》中报道。)可知,文章主要向人们介绍了一项研究的结果。故选C。
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. A
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了为什么长寿的动物们不会患癌症的问题。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段第一句及划线词所在句“In mammals, p53 plays a crucial role in preventing mutated cells from turning into tumors (肿瘤). It works by pausing replication and then either initiating repair or causing cells to self-destruct if the damage is too extensive.(在哺乳动物中,p53在防止突变细胞变成肿瘤方面起着至关重要的作用。它的工作原理是暂停复制,然后要么initiating修复,要么在损伤过于广泛时导致细胞自我毁灭)”可知,对于损伤过于广泛的细胞,p53会让细胞自我毁灭,因而对于可以修复的细胞,p53则会开始修复它。由此可知,划线词此处为“开始”含义。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“The scientists virtually modeled and studied carefully elephants’ 40 p53 proteins, finding two ways the gene could help elephants avoid cancer. First, the fact that elephants possess multiple copies lowers the chance of p53 no longer working because of mutations. Additionally, elephants’ p53 copies activate in response to varying mutations and so respond to damaged cells differently, which likely gives an edge when detecting and getting rid of mutations.(科学家们实际上建立了大象40种 p53蛋白的模型,并仔细研究了这些蛋白,发现了这种基因可以帮助大象避免癌症的两种方式。首先,大象拥有多个p53的副本的事实降低了 p53由于突变而不再起作用的可能性。此外,大象的 p53的副本对不同突变的反应也不同,因此对受损细胞的反应也不同,这可能在检测和消除突变方面有优势)”可知,p53对不同的突变的作用是不同的,即p53通过持续的针对不同的突变作出准确的回应,进而帮助大象避免癌症。故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“These “remarkable” results imply that elephants have a series of means though which p53 can operate, says Sue Haupt, a cell biologist who was not involved in the work. This points to “exciting possibilities for exploring powerful new approaches to cancer protection in humans,” she adds.(没有参与这项工作的细胞生物学家苏 · 豪普特(Sue Haupt)说,这些“非凡”的结果意味着,大象有一系列的方法可以让 p53起作用。她补充说,这表明“探索强有力的人类癌症防护新方法的令人兴奋的可能性”)”可知,这些非凡的结果意味着“探索强有力的人类癌症防护新方法的令人兴奋的可能性”。由此推知,这些结果的发现为人类对抗癌症提供了线索。故选C。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,根据第一段“Cancer is caused by gene mutations (突变) that accumulate in cells over time, yet long-lived animals that have lots of cells, such as elephants and whales, hardly ever get it. Why (癌症是由基因突变引起的,随着时间的推移,基因突变积累在细胞中,然而长寿的动物有很多细胞,如大象和鲸鱼,几乎从来不会有癌症。为什么?)”及第二段中“For elephants, at least, part of the answer may be the gene commonly known as p53, which also helps humans and many other animals repair DNA damaged during replication (复制).(至少对大象来说,部分答案可能是通常被称为 p53的基因,它也帮助人类和许多其他动物修复复制过程中受损的 DNA)”可知,本文主要讲述了为什么长寿的动物们不会患癌症的问题。故选A。
【答案】16. B 17. F 18. D 19. A 20. G
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了如何识别并避免假新闻的几个策略。
【16题详解】

【19题详解】
根据上文“After all your sleuthing (侦查), you come to the conclusion that you have found some fake news. ”(经过你的调查,你得出结论,你发现了一些假新闻)可知,经过各种调查后可以得出假新闻的结论。因而空处应承接上文,讲述如何对待假新闻。选项A.“不要分享”,承接前文,同时与下文“If it is a post or message from someone you know, you can reach out to them and let them know it’s not entirely accurate. It’s better to do this by politely messaging them privately rather than leaving a public comment if it’s a post on social media.”(如果是你认识的人发来的帖子或信息,你可以联系他们,让他们知道这并不完全准确。如果是社交媒体上的帖子,最好是私下礼貌地给他们发信息,而不是公开发表评论)在逻辑上意义相符,符合题意,故选A。
【20题详解】
根据前文“Studies suggest that fake news spreads faster than real news. ”(研究表明,假新闻比真新闻传播得更快)空处应承接上文,可以讲述我们应该要细心对待我们在网上见到的文章。选项G.“花点时间处理你在网上看到的任何信息都是很重要的。”切题,故选G。

How to Live a Healthy Life in Winter
In order to promote and develop a heathy life, our school launched an English lecture titled as “How to Live a Healthy Life in Winter” in the lecture hall last Friday.
During the activity, it consisted of three parts. To begin with, a video related to the students’ unhealthy life was shown. It stimulated students’ passion. Besides, some volunteers selected from the students told their stories about being health. Finally, the headmaster delivered a meaningful lecture, which made a profound effect on students.
From the activity, all the students realized the importance to be healthy.
【答案】 So last Saturday, he headed north to meet Kuan. Upon arrival, he told Kuan immediately what his aim was. He convinced Kuan that he had been working hard to save money to buy his own right car. However, it was still somewhat short to afford the car he had advertised. Seeing the honest boy, Kuan thought about his teen times and his parents’ struggling to raise the family. He agreed to give the boy a good bargain and received the envelop containing money.(74)
Kuan took a thousand dollars out of the envelope and handed it back. He informed Henry that he was greatly touched by his honesty and his efforts to achieve his goal. Meanwhile, he told Henry only work hard and stick to his dream can he benefit and fulfill his ambition. So the efforts Henry made beforehand worth the rest of the price and he just took a thousand dollars. Hearing the sayings, Henry was grateful, thanked Kuan and drove his own “new car” back happily.(72)

If you have ever had the flu, you know just how down and out you can feel, and it is important to do what you can to lower the number of days spent sick and in bed, including taking flu medicine. If you have mild symptoms, you may not need to take flu medicine. However, the medicine is recommended for certain groups of people. These include:
●People who are in the hospital with the flu
●People who aren’t in the hospital but are very sick with the flu
●People who are at high risk because of flu complications (并发症)
The Food and Drug Administration has approved four antiviral drugs for the flu. Each flu medicine is a little bit different, but they work in mostly the same way.
●Oseltamivir is a pill or liquid given by mouth that is approved to treat the flu for people 14 days and older. This is a common flu medicine. Side effects of Oseltamivir include feeling sick, vomiting, and diarrhea.
●Xofluza is a single-dose pill or liquid given by mouth and is approved for people aged 5 years and older. Side effects of Xofluza include coughing, feeling sick, and diarrhea.
●Relenza is an inhaled (吸入的) powder that is approved to treat the flu for people aged 7 years and older. This flu medicine tends to be less common because of how it is given. Side effects of Relenza include diarrhea, and feeling sick.
●Peramivir is injected through Ⅳ needle and is approved for people aged 6 months and older. This flu medicine tends to be less common since it is given as an Ⅳ infusion, usually in the hospital. Side effects of Peramivir include diarrhea, and sleeplessness.
1. Who need to take the flu medicine
A. People in the hospital. B. People easier to get a cold.
C. People greatly affected by flu. D. People with slight flu symptoms.
2. In what way is Relenza special

What do you plan to do in your retirement Tom Brown—an engineer who grew up in rural North Carolina discovered unexpectedly his retirement passion project in 1998 at a farmer’s market. Brown was introduced to several heritage apples—varieties of the fruit which were standardized in the 18th and 19th centuries. For the past 20 years, he has devoted his time and efforts to hunting down rare and lost heritage apples across the east coast.
The number of apple types has likely numbered over 14,000 across the United States by 1905. At that time, food production and consumption was more localized than the international produce market of today. Some of the richest variety in apples was found along the east coast, particularly in the rural south. Many small farms boasted apple trees.
The consumer and technological shifts of the 20th century reduced American apple offerings. Orchards (果园) were abandoned, destroyed, or lost to growing forest. As a result, thousands of varieties seemingly disappeared from the palate (味觉) of the nation. Brown refers to these varieties as “Lost Heritage Apples,” apples which have not been documented or clearly known since about 1930.
Brown began his website Apple Search in search of these lost pieces of culinary (食物的) history. He spends much of his time driving around, literally knocking on doors and talking about apples. At times, Brown heads off for an old orchard mentioned in historical records. Other times, he follows the word of mouth as people whisper of apple trees they knew in their youth.
When Brown finds a variety of apple, he often donates cuttings to heritage apple orchards. While it may seem like a never-ending task to track down these trees, Brown says, “It is exciting for me to look for rare apple varieties knowing that I am helping restore the agricultural heritage of our country. It feels wrong to just let them die and be lost forever.”
4. What probably caused the disappearance of some apple types in America
A. Change of climate. B. Development of times.
C. Expansion of forests. D. Decrease of consumers.
5. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. Brown’s efforts to build his website.
B. Brown’s interest in talking about apples.
C. Brown’s curiosity about the history of orchards.
D. Brown’s struggle to look for the missing apple species.
6. Which of the following can best describe Tom Brown
A. Faithful and humorous. B. Optimistic and modest.
C. Responsible and determined. D. Hard-working and considerate.
7. What is a suitable title for the text
A. The Apple Hunter B. The Rare Apple Species
C. The Apple Dealer D. The Lost Heritage Apples

In a global report of lake color, researchers estimate that roughly one-third of Earth’s lakes are blue. But, should average summer air temperatures rise by a few degrees, some of those clear waters could turn a cloudy green or brown, the Learn reports in the Sept. 28 Geophysical Research Letters.
The changing colors could change how people use those waters and offer clues about the stability of lake pared with blue lakes, green or brown lakes have more algae (藻类) and organic matter, says Xiao Yang, a hydrologist (水文专家) at Southern Methodist University.
Lakes in places with average summer air temperatures that were below 19° Celsius were more likely to be blue than lakes with warmer summers. That’s because warmer water helps algae bloom more, which changes the properties of the water.
Yang and colleagues used satellite photos from 2013 to 2020 to analyze the color of more than 85,000 lakes around the world. Because storms and seasons can temporarily affect a lake’s color, the researchers focused on the most frequent color observed for each lake over the seven-year period. The researchers also created an interactive online map that can be used to explore the colors of these lakes. The approach is “super cool,” the researchers say. These satellite data are “just so powerful.”
If some lakes do become less blue, people will probably lose some of the resources they have come to value, O’Reilly says, who is an ecologist at Illinois State University. Lakes are often used for drinking water, food or recreation. If the water has more algae, it could be unappealing for play or more costly to clean for drinking. But the color changes wouldn’t necessarily mean that the lakes are any less healthy. “Humans don’t value lots of algae in a lake, but if you’re a certain type of fish species, you might be like ‘this is great’” O’Reilly says.
8. What can we learn about the lakes’ color change according to the text
A. It is caused by water pollution. B. It does harm to the growth of algae.
C. It results from the temperature increase. D. It can disturb the stability of lake ecosystems.
9. How was the research conducted
A. By doing field investigation. B. By researching previous studies.
C. By analyzing long-term satellite data. D. By observing the daily color of the lakes.
10. Which word best describes O’Reilly’s attitude to the color change
A. Objective. B. Doubtful. C. Unconcerned. D. Favourable.
11. What’s the authors purpose in writing the text
A. To call on people to protect lakes. B. To introduce a new research method.
C. To present the outcome of a research. D. To provide solutions to lakes’ color change.
D
Cancer is caused by gene mutations (突变) that accumulate in cells over time, yet long-lived animals that have lots of cells, such as elephants and whales, hardly ever get it. Why
For elephants, at least, part of the answer may be the gene commonly known as p53, which also helps humans and many other animals repair DNA damaged during replication (复制). Elephants have an amazing 20 copies of this gene. Those copies, each with two variations produce a total of 40 proteins, compared with humans’ (and most animals’) single copy producing two proteins.
In mammals, p53 plays a crucial role in preventing mutated cells from turning into tumors (肿瘤). It works by pausing replication and then either initiating repair or causing cells to self-destruct if the damage is too extensive. Without action from p53, cancer can easily take hold: in more than half of all human cancers, the gene’s function has been lost through random mutations.
The scientists virtually modeled and studied carefully elephants’ 40 p53 proteins, finding two ways the gene could help elephants avoid cancer. First, the fact that elephants possess multiple copies lowers the chance of p53 no longer working because of mutations. Additionally, elephants’ p53 copies activate in response to varying mutations and so respond to damaged cells differently, which likely gives an edge when detecting and getting rid of mutations.
These “remarkable” results imply that elephants have a series of means, though, which p53 can operate, says Sue Haupt, a cell biologist who was not involved in the work. This points to “exciting possibilities for exploring powerful new approaches to cancer protection in humans,” she adds.
Study co-author Robin Fahraeus and his colleagues are now following up on these results using blood samples from an African elephant at the Vienna Zoo. They are exploring how its p53 proteins interact with damaged cells and plan to compare those findings with results from human cells.
12. What does the underlined word “initiating” mean in paragraph 3
A. Delaying. B. Indicating. C. Stopping. D. Starting.
13. How do p53 copies free elephants from cancer
A. By preventing the replication thoroughly.
B. By providing precise response continuously.
C. By lowering the chance of mutations in advance.
D. By repairing the damaged cells in the same way.
14. What can we conclude from the last 2 paragraphs
A. The results need further tests.
B. More biologists will participate in the study.
C. The results throw light on humans’ fighting cancer.
D. Researchers have new findings in African elephants.
15. What is the text mainly about
A. Why elephants don’t get cancer. B. What contributes to elephants’ long life.
C. Where the anticancer breakthrough lies. D. How the key cancer-fighting gene works.

52. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Henry was a college student at UC Santa Cruz. For years, he had been saving up to buy a decent used car. He had a part-time job at a local coffee shop. He repainted a room in his neighbor’s house in his free time. He had an internship (实习) at a software company. He saved a lot: Christmas money, birthday money, a penny here, a penny there.
While Henry worked to buy a car, Hua Kuan had a car to sell. Kuan was born and lived in Mexico for about 13 years. His parents had immigrated there from China.
In Mexico, he didn’t really grow up in a very nice area. He had to work when he was young, a lot of restaurant work—cleaning dishes, bussing tables.
Kuan’s family headed north to California in the late 1990s. A few years later, he was awarded a full scholarship to UC Berkeley. During Kuan’s junior year, his proud parents bought him a first car.
Kuan’s parents were blue-collar workers, and worked very hard for their money. They bought the car for their son, which was the only gift they were able to provide for him. And Kuan had been driving that car since it was brand new for about 14 years.
However, Kuan is a 35-year-old dentist now. His friends convinced him to upgrade his ride, so he listed his beloved car for sale on Craigslist. By chance, Henry saw the ad for the black car with gold wheels and over 150,000 miles. However, it was priced at $7000. He fell in love with the car the first time he saw it, and thought it just might be the one. Although it was a little bit over his budget, he determined to take a chance.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
So last Saturday, he headed north to meet Kuan.
