“Keep a sharp lookout，”Miller told Olden, a strong German dog, glancing toward the back seat.In the poor light, Miller could just make out the badge(徽章) shining smartly from his partner’s collar.Suddenly the car’s headlights lit up a figure breaking the lock on the building, Miller shouted the order “Go！” In a flash, Olden jumped through the car’s open window and bit the suspect on the leg.
Over the next few months, Miller kept his relationship with Olden strictly professional.The dog was kept outside, regardless of the weather and the time.Sometimes during storms, Olden would stick his nose out of his doghouse and bark at the back door.Miller pretended not to hear.To test Olden’s discipline, he’d give him the order “Stay” and then he’d leave.When he returned, Olden was still glued to the spot where he had left him.At that moment Miller wanted to give Olden a hug, but instead quietly said, “Good boy.”
One afternoon, just after Miller and Olden began their shift, an urgent call came.As Miller rushed to the spot, the suspect Steve’s car sped away.Miller ran after Steve at full speed.Finally Steve abandoned his car in a side street.Miller jumped out of his car and raced into it too.Turning a corner, he found a gun pointing right at his chest.He braced for the jolt when Steve was about to fire the gun.But suddenly a thundering bark rang out and Olden burst around the corner, tearing straight for Steve.The gunman fired and fled.It took a moment for Miller to react.Doctor told Miller the bullet, meant for him, missed Olden’s heart by an inch.Fortunately, his partner survived.After arriving home, Miller led Olden to his doghouse.Suddenly he stopped and did something he’d been wanting to do since he saw Olden.Bending down, Miller wrapped his arms around Olden.Then the two started rolling around in the soft grass.

You’ve ordered a new pair of shoes online.They arrive; you rush to the front door and carry the box as you open it.You untie the laces, guide them toward your feet and they don’t fit.
So, back in the box they go and an hour later you drop them at the local collections store.It’s disappointing.The shoes have never been worn and they’ll be making their way to a new home soon.Right Wrong.
What does happen to our goods when we order online and then return them The reality is that much of it simply ends up in landfill(垃圾场)．Each year, 5 billion pounds of waste is generated through returns in the world.In the US alone, customers return approximately 3.5 billion products, of which only 20% are actually faulty according to Optoro, a company which specializes in tackling the returns.
It turns out that returns create a real headache for companies.Many companies simply don’t have the technology to handle these faults in returned goods, so it is often most profitable for them to sell them cheaply to discounters via a web of shipping, driving and flying them around the globe, or to simply truck them to the dump.
Optoro’s software helps retailers(零售商) and manufacturers resell unsold goods more easily.They offer a number of options for retailers, including a website to resell their goods, called Blinq, as well as helping with re-routing goods to donation, store shelves, Amazon or eBay.They estimate their work helps reduce landfill waste by 70%.
Ann Starodaj, Senior Director of Sustainability at Optoro, says that while consumer habits might still be harmful, creating a profitable and environmentally friendly fashion model from start to finish is the way forward.“I don’t think people are going to stop buying stuff, but creating a business model where you’re making it easier for them to make sustainable choices is very important.”
28．What are the statistics in paragraph 3 about
A．Waste disposal.
B．Goods delivery.
C．Clothing fashion.
D．Waste returns.
29．Why do returns become a real headache for companies
A．Very little profit can be made.
B．Related technology is not available.
C．Goods are damaged on purpose.
D．No places can be found to bury them.
30．What is paragraph 5 mainly about
A．A practical solution.
B．A marketing plan.
C．A difficult task.
D．A producing process.
31．What does Ann Starodaj want to convey
A．Returns are easy to deal with.
B．People should stop buying goods online.
C．Consumer habits bring about harmful results.
D．It is vital to create a sustainable business model.

The Atlantic salmon(鲑鱼) of Scotland are hardy and determined animals.Each spring and summer，they return from the North Atlantic Ocean to lay eggs in Scotland’s shallow rivers，leaping up waterfalls and over barriers，pushing themselves upstream in enormous efforts.Some fail，and others succeed，but today they face yet another challenge.
During the mid-1980s，there were between eight and ten million salmon swimming around Scotland’s Atlantic coast；that number has now dropped sharply.There’s evidence of reducing the availability of the salmon’s prey(猎物) as climate change warms and acidifies oceans.New research suggests climate change is also bearing down on rivers，which is bad news for salmon.Adapted to life in cold water，salmon experience slow growth and population changes at high temperatures.Heat influences their health and reduces their resistance to disease.
“Now salmon are struggling to deal with the rising temperatures.There are recent records of 27°C in the upper reaches of the Dee catchment，” says Peter Cairns，director of an environmental charity.In 2018，Scotland recorded the lowest pole catch for salmon since records began.Evidence suggests that the degraded quality of river worsens the impact of our changing climate.Atlantic salmon evolved using river systems in Scotland that were once way more forested and therefore shaded.Yet Scotland is today one of the least wooded countries in Europe，with just 3 percent of its native woodland undamaged.Scientists have found that just 35 percent of rivers in Scotland have enough tree cover for salmon survival.
A movement to get trees back on riverbanks is gathering pace.“Broad-leaf trees close to the bank can reduce the light that enters the water，” explains fisheries scientist Anthony Hawkins.A new initiative called Riverwoods—led by the Scottish Wildlife Trust and supported by Scottish Water and several other government and regulatory bodies—aims to create a network of woodlands along Scotland’s riverbanks，and has already received a number of large funds.“Money is not the pressing business.River health is complex，but tree planting is one of the most basic things we can get started with right away，” says Cairns.
32．Why do Atlantic salmon make great journeys back to the rivers
A．They search for foods.
B．They reproduce themselves.
C．The rivers are relatively cool.
D．The seas are increasingly warm.
33．How do the rising temperatures in rivers affect salmon
A．They grow more quickly.
B．They are more heat-resistant.
C．They are less active in water.
D．They are more likely to get diseases.
34．What is a challenge for salmon when they return to Scotland’s rivers
A．There is a shortage of food.
B．There is much fish catching.
C．The ecology environment has changed.
D．The river systems are unsuitable for the forest growth.
35．What does Cairns really intend to tell us in the last paragraph
A．It is urgent to plant riverbank trees.
B．It is too hard to restore the river health.
C．There is enough money for the project.
D．There are too many vital things to deal with.

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。
Curiosity is rooted in our DNA.We are fascinated by the future；we are impressed with the unknown that surrounds us；we are amazed at all that we have to explore.The mysteries of the world have always been a push for us to watch. 36
Children are known for sticking their fingers in places where young fingers should never be.They are famous for putting all kinds of objects and substances in their mouths，everything from plastic blocks to any object in the room.
37 It holds our hand as we move into old age and the unknown of the future.By and large，we are determined question-askers.We want to know more than we know；we want to expand our horizons，try out the new and undiscovered，and pursue experiences that deepen our comprehension of the world we live in.
38 It is also the generation of possibilities.When we look at the world from multiple perspectives，we give ourselves permission to examine a wider range of resolutions.We open up our minds to explore the unexamined and unknown. 39 Ian Leslie explains it this way，“Curiosity is essential to an exploring mind；it opens our eyes to the new and undiscovered，encouraging us to seek out new experiences and meet new people.”
Curiosity is the catalyst(催化剂) for questioning，and questioning is what urges us to seek out the unfamiliar and the unknown. 40 It does not move forward，nor does it have sufficient power to dig what may lie just below the surface or just slightly out of reach.Curiosity is the fuel necessary for creativity to prosper and succeed.
A．Curiosity has its own reason for existing.
B．Without questioning，knowledge becomes inactive.
C．Nowhere is this truer than when we watch our children.
D．But curiosity is much more than a simple search for answers.
E．Curiosity becomes a boost for new opportunities and new options.
F．So ask questions to which there may be a wide variety of responses.
G．In adults，curiosity guides us toward a lifetime occupation and to new destinations.

May 18,1986，was the kind of beautiful，sunny day that regularly brought the Rodriguez family to Santa Catalina Island for some fishing on their nine-metre pleasure boat，the DC Too.They spent the day fishing in the Pacific Ocean，then left the island in the early evening.
Soon thick fog rolled in.Louise fell into a light sleep beside her five-year-old sister，Trisha，at a table on the boat’s lower deck.Their father’s sharp orders frightened her awake：“Get out of the boat.It’s sinking！” Louise pushed her sister into the cold，dark water.The girls were followed by their mother，Petra Rodriguez.Both girls wore life jackets，but the adults did not.Within seconds，the boat capsized，leaving just the tip of its bow in the air.
After some time，her father told them he would swim for help.Louise watched him disappear into the darkness.A while later，her mother went still.Then her sister died，too.
Pisano and Strasser，both 25，were going on a fishing expedition.The fog was so thick that they couldn’t even see the stern(船尾) of the boat.They decided to try one more spot before going home.Late that afternoon，the fog cleared and the sun started shining.On their return voyage，about 11 kilometres away from Catalina Island，Pisano noticed something yellow floating in the water.
Strasser steered(驾驶) the boat closer and Pisano jumped into the water.He swam toward the figure and grabbed the life jacket.Fortunately，Louise was saved and quickly sent to hospital.The little girl soon recovered，but the search for Louise’s father，sister and mother was in vain.
Louise was adopted by her aunt and uncle.She attended college，got married in 2013 and gave birth to a son.In her late 20s，Louise began to wonder about her rescuers.She even tried to find them but no luck.One day，Louise came across a magazine article featuring Pisano talking about the 1986 rescue.
注意：续写词数应为150个左右。
Realizing Pisano was the very person she was looking for，Louise decided to find him.
Louise recognized her rescuer the moment she saw Pisano.

W：Oh，my dear!
M：Though she failed in the race，the girl won the applause from people all over the world.
W：How moving! Until now I know what the perseverance is.
M：It was she who kept perseverance in our mind.

They are only a few weeks old，but these children are already the center of public anger.Los Angeles police say they plan to investigate death threats against their mom，Nadya Suleman.The 33-year-old single，unemployed mother has been getting hundreds of angry phone calls and e-mails.
The criticism is mostly directed at the public assistance.Suleman is getting to care for these eight babies as well as these six other children.And the big share of that financial burden could fall on the shoulders of California’s taxpayers.Suleman tells NBC’s The Today Show she doesn’t consider the public assistance for long.
The US Department of Agriculture estimates the cost of raising 14 children through age 17 could go up to $ 2.7 million for the single mother.Suleman’s spokesman says she’s living in an undisclosed location and spends time with all of her kids every day.

Over the next few months, Miller kept his relationship with Olden strictly professional.The dog was kept outside, regardless of the weather and the time.Sometimes during storms, Olden would stick his nose out of his doghouse and bark at the back door.Miller pretended not to hear.To test Olden’s discipline, he’d give him the order “Stay” and then he’d leave.When he returned, Olden was still glued to the spot where he had left him.At that moment Miller wanted to give Olden a hug, but instead quietly said, “Good boy.”
One afternoon, just after Miller and Olden began their shift, an urgent call came.As Miller rushed to the spot, the suspect Steve’s car sped away.Miller ran after Steve at full speed.Finally Steve abandoned his car in a side street.Miller jumped out of his car and raced into it too.Turning a corner, he found a gun pointing right at his chest.He braced for the jolt when Steve was about to fire the gun.But suddenly a thundering bark rang out and Olden burst around the corner, tearing straight for Steve.The gunman fired and fled.It took a moment for Miller to react.Doctor told Miller the bullet, meant for him, missed Olden’s heart by an inch.Fortunately, his partner survived.After arriving home, Miller led Olden to his doghouse.Suddenly he stopped and did something he’d been wanting to do since he saw Olden.Bending down, Miller wrapped his arms around Olden.Then the two started rolling around in the soft grass.

You’ve ordered a new pair of shoes online.They arrive; you rush to the front door and carry the box as you open it.You untie the laces, guide them toward your feet and they don’t fit.
So, back in the box they go and an hour later you drop them at the local collections store.It’s disappointing.The shoes have never been worn and they’ll be making their way to a new home soon.Right Wrong.
What does happen to our goods when we order online and then return them The reality is that much of it simply ends up in landfill(垃圾场)．Each year, 5 billion pounds of waste is generated through returns in the world.In the US alone, customers return approximately 3.5 billion products, of which only 20% are actually faulty according to Optoro, a company which specializes in tackling the returns.
It turns out that returns create a real headache for companies.Many companies simply don’t have the technology to handle these faults in returned goods, so it is often most profitable for them to sell them cheaply to discounters via a web of shipping, driving and flying them around the globe, or to simply truck them to the dump.
Optoro’s software helps retailers(零售商) and manufacturers resell unsold goods more easily.They offer a number of options for retailers, including a website to resell their goods, called Blinq, as well as helping with re-routing goods to donation, store shelves, Amazon or eBay.They estimate their work helps reduce landfill waste by 70%.
Ann Starodaj, Senior Director of Sustainability at Optoro, says that while consumer habits might still be harmful, creating a profitable and environmentally friendly fashion model from start to finish is the way forward.“I don’t think people are going to stop buying stuff, but creating a business model where you’re making it easier for them to make sustainable choices is very important.”

The Atlantic salmon(鲑鱼) of Scotland are hardy and determined animals.Each spring and summer，they return from the North Atlantic Ocean to lay eggs in Scotland’s shallow rivers，leaping up waterfalls and over barriers，pushing themselves upstream in enormous efforts.Some fail，and others succeed，but today they face yet another challenge.
During the mid-1980s，there were between eight and ten million salmon swimming around Scotland’s Atlantic coast；that number has now dropped sharply.There’s evidence of reducing the availability of the salmon’s prey(猎物) as climate change warms and acidifies oceans.New research suggests climate change is also bearing down on rivers，which is bad news for salmon.Adapted to life in cold water，salmon experience slow growth and population changes at high temperatures.Heat influences their health and reduces their resistance to disease.
“Now salmon are struggling to deal with the rising temperatures.There are recent records of 27°C in the upper reaches of the Dee catchment，” says Peter Cairns，director of an environmental charity.In 2018，Scotland recorded the lowest pole catch for salmon since records began.Evidence suggests that the degraded quality of river worsens the impact of our changing climate.Atlantic salmon evolved using river systems in Scotland that were once way more forested and therefore shaded.Yet Scotland is today one of the least wooded countries in Europe，with just 3 percent of its native woodland undamaged.Scientists have found that just 35 percent of rivers in Scotland have enough tree cover for salmon survival.
A movement to get trees back on riverbanks is gathering pace.“Broad-leaf trees close to the bank can reduce the light that enters the water，” explains fisheries scientist Anthony Hawkins.A new initiative called Riverwoods—led by the Scottish Wildlife Trust and supported by Scottish Water and several other government and regulatory bodies—aims to create a network of woodlands along Scotland’s riverbanks，and has already received a number of large funds.“Money is not the pressing business.River health is complex，but tree planting is one of the most basic things we can get started with right away，” says Cairns.
32．Why do Atlantic salmon make great journeys back to the rivers
A．They search for foods.
B．They reproduce themselves.
C．The rivers are relatively cool.
D．The seas are increasingly warm.
答案　B
解析　细节理解题。根据第一段第二句可知，大西洋鲑鱼长途跋涉回到河里是为了繁殖。故选B项。
33．How do the rising temperatures in rivers affect salmon
A．They grow more quickly.
B．They are more heat-resistant.
C．They are less active in water.
D．They are more likely to get diseases.
答案　D
解析　细节理解题。根据第二段末句可知，河流温度上升使鲑鱼对疾病的抵抗力下降，即更容易生病。故选D项。
34．What is a challenge for salmon when they return to Scotland’s rivers
A．There is a shortage of food.
B．There is much fish catching.
C．The ecology environment has changed.
D．The river systems are unsuitable for the forest growth.
答案　C
解析　推理判断题。根据第三段中“Atlantic salmon evolved using river systems in Scotland...tree cover for salmon survival.”可知，苏格兰仅剩35%的河流还有足够鲑鱼生存的植被，由此可推知，当鲑鱼返回苏格兰河流时，生态环境的变化对它们来说是一个挑战。故选C项。
35．What does Cairns really intend to tell us in the last paragraph
A．It is urgent to plant riverbank trees.
B．It is too hard to restore the river health.
C．There is enough money for the project.
D．There are too many vital things to deal with.
答案　A
解析　推理判断题。根据最后一段中“but tree planting is one of the most basic things we can get started with right away”可推知，凯恩斯真正想告诉我们的是种植河岸树木是当务之急。故选A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。
Curiosity is rooted in our DNA.We are fascinated by the future；we are impressed with the unknown that surrounds us；we are amazed at all that we have to explore.The mysteries of the world have always been a push for us to watch. 36
Children are known for sticking their fingers in places where young fingers should never be.They are famous for putting all kinds of objects and substances in their mouths，everything from plastic blocks to any object in the room.
37 It holds our hand as we move into old age and the unknown of the future.By and large，we are determined question-askers.We want to know more than we know；we want to expand our horizons，try out the new and undiscovered，and pursue experiences that deepen our comprehension of the world we live in.
38 It is also the generation of possibilities.When we look at the world from multiple perspectives，we give ourselves permission to examine a wider range of resolutions.We open up our minds to explore the unexamined and unknown. 39 Ian Leslie explains it this way，“Curiosity is essential to an exploring mind；it opens our eyes to the new and undiscovered，encouraging us to seek out new experiences and meet new people.”
Curiosity is the catalyst(催化剂) for questioning，and questioning is what urges us to seek out the unfamiliar and the unknown. 40 It does not move forward，nor does it have sufficient power to dig what may lie just below the surface or just slightly out of reach.Curiosity is the fuel necessary for creativity to prosper and succeed.
A．Curiosity has its own reason for existing.
B．Without questioning，knowledge becomes inactive.
C．Nowhere is this truer than when we watch our children.
D．But curiosity is much more than a simple search for answers.
E．Curiosity becomes a boost for new opportunities and new options.
F．So ask questions to which there may be a wide variety of responses.
G．In adults，curiosity guides us toward a lifetime occupation and to new destinations.
语篇解读　这是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了好奇心是天生的，从儿童到成人，好奇心促使人们探索未知，同时好奇心也带来了新的机遇和可能。
36．答案　C
解析　设空句在该段段末，应承上启下。首句“Curiosity is rooted in our DNA.”讲到好奇心是天生的，因此设空句应再次呼应“天生的”。选项C“当我们观察我们的孩子时，这一点尤为真实”符合逻辑，且在话题上承起了下段的“Children”话题。故选C项。
37．答案　G
解析　设空句为该段首句，应是主题句。根据后文“It holds our hand as we move into old age and the unknown of the future.”可知，该段讲到了好奇心对成年人的引导作用，因此，设空句应含有核心词汇“成人”。选项G中“adults”，“curiosity”贴合该段主旨。故选G项。
38．答案　D
解析　分析该段内容可知，设空后文“It is also the generation of possibilities.”为该段的主旨句，由此可知，该段强调了好奇心带来的可能性及更加深远的影响，因此可推知，设空句应是过渡句，承上启下。选项D中“search for answers”呼应上一段的“question-askers”，同时使用“much more than”使话题顺利过渡到该段，前后逻辑衔接紧密。故选D项。
39．答案　E
解析　分析可知，后文“Ian Leslie explains it this way”中的“it”应是指代设空句，而后文“Curiosity is essential to an exploring mind；it opens our eyes to the new and undiscovered，encouraging us to seek out new experiences and meet new people”讲到好奇心对新事物认知的推动作用，即“it”，也就是设空句的含义。选项E“好奇心成为新机会和新选择的动力”符合语境，同时在话题上呼应主旨句。故选E项。
40．答案　B
解析　根据前文“Curiosity is the catalyst(催化剂) for questioning，and questioning is what urges us to seek out the unfamiliar and the unknown.”可知，前文提出了质疑在探寻未知过程中的促进作用，由此可推知，设空句应承接此话题，继续讲述质疑的促进作用。选项B用双重否定的形式肯定了质疑对知识的促进作用，且后文中的It指代的就是knowledge，并在句意上与后文构成解释关系。故选B项。
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。

Say No to Food Waste
参考范文
Say No to Food Waste
As we all know, food is very important for human survival.However, wasting food is a common phenomenon that people order more food than they can eat, and even throw away their leftovers in restaurants, which is so disappointing that I’d like to give some advice on reducing food waste.
First, we should have the awareness of saving food.Next, it’s time for us to take action to save food.We ought to treasure food wherever we are.What is more important is that we should have the courage to fight against wasting food.
Saving food is a virtue.I call on everyone to say no to food waste.Starting from us，we should remember to order appropriately whenever we eat out.

May 18,1986，was the kind of beautiful，sunny day that regularly brought the Rodriguez family to Santa Catalina Island for some fishing on their nine-metre pleasure boat，the DC Too.They spent the day fishing in the Pacific Ocean，then left the island in the early evening.
Soon thick fog rolled in.Louise fell into a light sleep beside her five-year-old sister，Trisha，at a table on the boat’s lower deck.Their father’s sharp orders frightened her awake：“Get out of the boat.It’s sinking！” Louise pushed her sister into the cold，dark water.The girls were followed by their mother，Petra Rodriguez.Both girls wore life jackets，but the adults did not.Within seconds，the boat capsized，leaving just the tip of its bow in the air.
After some time，her father told them he would swim for help.Louise watched him disappear into the darkness.A while later，her mother went still.Then her sister died，too.
Pisano and Strasser，both 25，were going on a fishing expedition.The fog was so thick that they couldn’t even see the stern(船尾) of the boat.They decided to try one more spot before going home.Late that afternoon，the fog cleared and the sun started shining.On their return voyage，about 11 kilometres away from Catalina Island，Pisano noticed something yellow floating in the water.
Strasser steered(驾驶) the boat closer and Pisano jumped into the water.He swam toward the figure and grabbed the life jacket.Fortunately，Louise was saved and quickly sent to hospital.The little girl soon recovered，but the search for Louise’s father，sister and mother was in vain.
Louise was adopted by her aunt and uncle.She attended college，got married in 2013 and gave birth to a son.In her late 20s，Louise began to wonder about her rescuers.She even tried to find them but no luck.One day，Louise came across a magazine article featuring Pisano talking about the 1986 rescue.

Realizing Pisano was the very person she was looking for，Louise decided to find him.For a very long time，she had been expecting a chance to meet Pisano and Strasser personally and express her gratitude to her rescuers.Without any delay，she contacted the magazine，asking for the detailed information of Pisano.That evening，Louise finally dialed the number.When there came the voice of Pisano，Louise could feel her heart beating wildly.Though it was about 1,000 kilometers from where Pisano lived，Louise was determined to fly to meet Pisano.
Louise recognized her rescuer the moment she saw Pisano.Taking a deep breath，Louise stepped forward and grasped the hands of Pisano tightly.“I’m Louise”，she said，her voice trembling with excitement and tears rolling down her cheeks.Pisano，now in his sixties，hugged Louise and patted her gently.Amid hugs，tears and surprise，Louise’s dream of finding her rescuers came true and now that she’d reunited with them，she hoped to stay connected forever.
