That’s Scott Murdock.After five years of volunteering for Metro Parks’ CHIP-in!program, he’s spent 4,760 official hours in volunteering for parks around Tacoma, a port city in Washington. “I was born in Seattle, and grew up in Olympia.Apart from three years’ working in Idaho, I’ve never lived outside Washington State,” explains Murdock.“Growing up I went on a lot of long walks with the Boy Scouts (童子军).” Because of his busy working life, he almost gave up the hobby.When he retired in 2014, he realized he wanted to get back to hiking — and to give back to those mountains, trails and forests he loved as a boy. That year on Parks Appreciation Day, he volunteered for CHIP-in!in Alderwood Park.“It had a lot of ivy (常春藤) and blackberries,” remembers Murdock.“So I said I’d like to take care of it, to give back.” Since then Murdock has served nine years as a park steward, a volunteer who commits to regular monthly hours at a particular park and helps organize other volunteers.Spending up to 20 hours a week working in parks as he does, educating the public is also a part of the job.One day, while clearing away blackberries, a local resident came up and complained that he was taking away all the habitat for the birds. Murdock smiles.“I explained to her that what I was doing would let native vegetation grow better, which provides much better food for birds than blackberries,” he says. Other benefits of clearing invasive things include creating more trails in Metro Parks, thus protecting plants from human feet and encouraging walkers to explore.Murdock has also found that bringing back wildlife also discourages unwanted human use, like teenage parties or rubbish.24.What did Murdock do on the icy-cold winter morning in the park?A.He appreciated and shot snow scenes.B.He took part in a park clean-up campaign.C.He waited for his old friends to do exercise.D.He organized a surprising activity for park-goers.25.What was Murdock interested in as a boy?A.Going for long walks. B.Picking up fallen leaves.C.Living in the countryside. D.Traveling around the country.26.What would happen to the parks with the help of volunteers like Murdock?A.They would become ideal places for teenage parties.B.They would provide a lot of food for local residents.C.They would have a rich harvest of blackberries.D.They would be improved and used more.27.What can we infer about Murdock?A.He is a man of great talent. B.He has a sense of commitment.C.He is good at turning waste into treasure. D.He gets used to making plans in advance.C A start-up based in California is well on its way to doing what seems like magic: creating meat from the air.Air Protein has created non-animal-based meat and seafood using nothing but microbes (微生物), water, and elements found in the air. The idea of making food from the air first came from NASA in the 1960s.Researchers were looking for a way to recycle the carbon dioxide (CO2) that astronauts breathe out while on a mission (太空飞行任务), and realized they could use it to create edible material.But NASA soon gave up the idea and moved on to other plans.In 2019, Air Protein founder Dr Lisa Dyson picked up where NASA left off. NASA researchers found that certain microbes could change CO2 into a protein when mixed with water and energy and this is the technology that Air Protein uses.Once the protein is taken out of the air, the company then turns it into a powder that is used to create proteins that mimic the taste, texture, and look of animal proteins. It was witnessing the consequences of Hurricane Katrina that led Dyson to begin thinking seriously about climate change and what she could do to reduce its effect. Dyson began to take an interest in the food industry because of the large amount of greenhouse gases it produces.It is the meat industry in particular that is responsible for the most emissions.Yet meat consumption is still growing all over the world, and indeed the world population is growing, with estimates of a population of 10 billion people by 2050. Air Protein’s solution could help because the process of making the meat uses CO2 already in the atmosphere.The energy the start-up uses is all renewable wind and solar power.Making meat from the air uses 1.5 million times less land than the beef industry does and uses 15,000 times less water.These are both resources that are really needed to fight climate change. “We need to produce food in a way that isn’t damaging the planet,” said Dyson.“We don’t have a choice.I think there’s a bright future when we bring innovation to the problem and change how our food is made.”28.What is special about creating meat from the air?A.It was a forgotten space technology. B.It focuses on the health of astronauts.C.It was invented by a start-up company. D.It is supported by the government of California.29.What concerned Dyson most?A.The rapid increase in population. B.People’s heavy dependence on meat.C.Serious consequences of natural disasters. D.The high environmental cost of the food industry.30.Why is the beef industry mentioned in Paragraph 6?A.To show why it is vital to use green energy.B.To explain what resources are in great need.C.To stress how effective Air Protein’s solution is.D.To describe who the competitor of Air Protein is.31.How does Dyson sound in the last paragraph?A.Hopeful. B.Curious.C.Confused. D.Humorous.D It was in 1979 when Mississippi Nights first opened its doors on the western bank of the Mississippi River.The musical place held up to 1,000 music lovers for mostly all-ages concerts.After a casino (赌场) took over the beloved building in January 2007, concertgoers continued to pine for the good old days at the place. “Mississippi Nights brought in so many types of music.The only music I don’t think we did was opera,” said Rich Frame, owner of Mississippi Nights. The place touched so many lives, including the lives of Garrett and Stacy Enloe.For them, it was a natural choice to write Mississippi Nights: A History of The Music Club in St.Louis, which records the 30-year run of the place, even digging into the pre-Mississippi Nights history of 914 North 1st street in Laclede’s Landing. “We made sure to include the stories of the music we love so much,” describes Garrett Enloe.“Plus, we had such a great time bringing the history of Mississippi Nights back to life with stories of local bands like The Urge, Kingofthehill, Story of the Year, and more.” Music runs deep in Garrett Enloe’s family.His grandfather toured the country as a saxophonist (萨克斯手) in swing bands and his mother worked at Now & Then Records.Eventually, that little record store in South St.Louis became Garrett’s first employer. Every page helps fans relive the rich music history of Mississippi Nights with stories, photos, and memorabilia (纪念品).Over 1,000 images on 288 pages in this hardcover edition make for a conversation piece for anyone who loves music and concerts. “I enjoyed researching and collecting the historic images of the place, including oral histories from musicians, owners, and staff.Every word and every picture bring back memories of concerts and fun from when I was younger!” says Stacy.When she was young, Stacy often went with her mother to Peaches Records on South Hampton in St.Louis. The history of the building pre-Mississippi Nights (the 1930s to 1979) adds something to the story that feels like discovering your own family’s roots.The bygone times that brought Mississippi Nights for fans to enjoy make for fascinating reading strengthened by attractive pictures.32.What do the underlined words “pine for” in Paragraph 1 mean?A.Record. B.Miss.C.Challenge. D.Admit.33.What do Paragraphs 3 and 4 mainly tell us about the book?A.What it is about. B.Why it was written.C.How hard it was to write it. D.Where its inspiration comes from.34.What can we learn from Stacy’s words?A.The book has become a best-seller. B.Creating the book was an enjoyable experience.C.The book includes more than she planned. D.She was very thankful for local musicians’ support.35.What is the purpose of the last paragraph?A.To remind us to explore our family’s roots.B.To ask fans to remember Mississippi Nights.C.To attract our interest in reading Mississippi Nights.D.To briefly introduce the pre-Mississippi Nights history.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。 “Influencer culture” refers to a trend where famous individuals use their popularity to promote particular products either through social media or traditional means to make money.Here are five top tips for helping children and young people, and parents understand influencer culture.Understand that influencers get paid 36 .It’s important for people to be aware of this and know how to tell content shared by influencers for business purposes from their personal content.Critically (批判性地) think about content Although influencers have a great number of followers and a verified account (认证账户), it’s still important to critically think about the messaging or content an influencer promotes. 37 .Recognize that photos are edited Many pictures that you see on social media are heavily edited.Remind your child of this when they look at influencer content online. 38 , but the original might look quite different.Use platform tools like “mute (静音)” 39 .Children and young people are no exception.If they find that using social media is harming their mental health or making them feel bad about themselves, then taking a break could help.Tell your child to stop following accounts that make them feel this way. 40 Lots of influencers use their platform for good, and it can be a great way to explore new ideas and lifestyles or learn about different cultures.Encourage your child to choose to follow and share accounts that make them feel good, and those that aim to spread positive messages online.A.Welcome the positivesB.Cut down social media timeC.It is human nature to compare yourself with othersD.Influencers often receive money for promoting contentE.Many influencers create a community around their contentF.Influencers often try to make one photo look almost “perfect”G.Influencers have their own opinions and values, which may not match yours36. 37. 38. 39. 40. 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。 There are a falling number of skilled lineworkers, leaving a hole in the job market that badly needs to be filled.To help fill that 41 , South Louisiana Community College (SLCC) in Lafayette, Louisiana, started a Power Lineman program to 42 people the tools and tricks of the trade.Now, the first 43 to graduate from the program has broken more 44 by becoming LUS Fiber’s first female lineworker.

When Jenny was in the fourth grade, one day, her teacher asked them to write a report on what they wanted to be when they grew up.She poured her heart into her report and wrote that she dreamed to become an airline pilot in the future.She thought that she did a great job because she expressed her real idea successfully.However, to her surprise, her paper came back with an “F” on it.The teacher told her it was nothing but a “fairy tale”, which could never become true.Jenny felt completely disappointed and sad.In her heart, she didn’t want to accept that a girl couldn’t become a pilot.But as the years went by, Jenny was beaten down by the discouragement again and again from people around her.“Girls can’t become airline pilots; never have, never will.You’re crazy.” Finally, Jenny gave up her dream. However, when Jenny studied in her senior year of high school, she met an English teacher called Marsha, who was a strict teacher with high standards but very kind.She often inspired her students to do something meaningful in the future.One day, Mrs Marsha asked all the students to think about the question:“What will you do in the future?” At that time, Jenny hesitated for a while.She was worried that she would be laughed at again.But soon she felt a rush of the old enthusiasm, and with excitement she wrote down the very old dream of becoming a pilot right away.注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;2.请按如下格式作答。 The next day, Marsha came into the classroom with a bright smile on her face.

Is it a novel?M:No, it’s a medical book. It’s been very popular recently, even though there’s obviously boring subject matter.W:Really? I don’t think I’d enjoy anything on such a boring topic, even if it is useful. I much prefer science fiction, especially about what life might be like in the future.(Text 5)M:Hey, you look great! How did you get in such good shape?W:I’ve been going to the club regularly, and the training has really paid off. I’m in better shape than I have been for years and I know much more about how to keep fit.M:I haven’t gone to the club for weeks. I am too busy with work.W:I know. It’s so easy to be too busy for exercise, but I’ve realized that exercise is extremely important to every other aspect of life.(Text 6)M:Do you often shop online?W:Oh, yes, quite often. It is very convenient, and it saves me a lot of time.M:You know, I’ve never tried online shopping before.

I can help you with that.M:Oh, thank you! That is so nice of you.(Text 7)W:Why weren’t you at the Spanish class last night, Jack? Have you decided to give up?M:No. I came back late yesterday and found John asleep in his chair. He’d been writing a report all day long and he was too tired to go out again. So we gave the lesson a miss.W:You’ve missed quite a lot of lessons recently, haven’t you? Are you losing interest?M:Yes, I’m afraid so. Neither I nor John has a gift for language. People just laugh at us when we attempt to speak Spanish. How did you and Jane pick it up so quickly and easily? You’ve been in Spain for hardly a month.W:It wasn’t all that quick. We’d both studied the language before we came, and we needed a lot of review before we came back.M:Anyway, all our friends here speak English very well, so we don’t really need to learn Spanish.(Text 8)M:I am having trouble with my job. Five of my colleagues and I have been working on a project since last Wednesday.W:Is the project too hard?M:No, it’s not all that hard but no one is working together on it.W:So your group is having a problem with teamwork.M:Yes. We have to finish it before next Friday, only ten days from now.W:Is there anyone in charge of the team?M:No. Everyone is just doing their own separate work.W:If your group doesn’t come together, then no one will know what has been done and what still needs to be done.M:But how do I get them to work together?W:If your group does not have a leader, then you should step up and be one.M:How do I do that?W:You should call everyone together for a meeting.M:And then what should I do when I have them all together?W:Let them know that this project is important, and so is working as a team to get it done.M:Thank you for the advice. I will call everybody now and tell them we are going to have a meeting in the morning.(Text 9)W:Hi there! What have you been up to lately?M:I have been looking for a university to apply to.W:Really? So have I!M:Cool! What term will you apply for?W:For the fall semester. How about you?M:I’ll apply for the spring semester. I need to work and earn some money in the next six months.W:Yeah, college can be very expensive.M:How are you paying for college?W:I am getting help from a bank.M:That’s cool. So have you started filling out any university applications?W:Yes, I have. The applications take a while!M:They do, especially all those essays.W:Yes, those are hard. I’m not really sure what to write about.M:I’m glad I’m not applying until the spring, so I have more time to prepare.W:Yeah, you’re lucky you have more time. So do you plan to rent a room near the university you go to?M:Yes, I plan to rent a room near the university and find a roommate to share the cost, so I can save some money.W:Oh, really? My friend Jack wants to do that too. If you’re in the same area, perhaps you could rent a place with him.M:Oh, that’s wonderful! Could I get his contact information from you?W:Sure. I’ll give you his phone number right now.M:Thanks!(Text 10)Future homes will have some really smart cooking tools. Microwave ovens and refrigerators will probably be combined, so that meals can be ready upon one’s arrival home.Future homes may also have refrigerators that can suggest menus based upon the food you have at home. In the home of the future, the refrigerator will probably also be able to take note of all food supplies in the home and inform you when you’re running out, or even be programmed to contact the local supermarket to drop off the needed food supplies.Future homes will also be very energy-saving. Microsoft, Google and others are now working on applications to help you see and track which tools use the most electricity, helping you save electricity and thus your daily expenses.There will most likely also be systems in place for saving and reusing wash water and bath water, which will probably have to be the main origin of future water, so that both plants and people can still have clean water in the future, when water supplies are low.第二部分语篇解读:本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四部适合儿童观看的机器人电影。21.A 细节理解题。根据Sid the Science Kid: The Movie部分中的Runtime: 75 minutes和下文可知,该电影发生在博物馆,时长75分钟。22.A

Microwaveovens and refrigerators will probably be combined, so that meals can beready upon one’s arrival home.Future homes may also have refrigerators that can suggest menusbased upon the food you have at home. In the home of the future, therefrigerator will probably also be able to take note of all food supplies inthe home and inform you when you’re running out, or even beprogrammed to contact the local supermarket to drop off the needed foodsupplies.Future homes will also be very energy-saving. Microsoft, Googleand others are now working on applications to help you see and trackwhich tools use the most electricity, helping you save electricity and thusyour daily expenses.There will most likely also be systems in place for saving and reusingwash water and bath water, which will probably have to be the mainorigin of future water, so that both plants and people can still have cleanwater in the future, when water supplies are low.第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。AThe Backyardigans: Robot Repairman (2009)Runtime: 89 minutes The Backyardigans, Tyrone, Pablo, Uniqua, Austin, andTasha, put on their skates and race around town trying to figure out whyall of the robots seem to be out of order.This movie is fun for kids.Plus,adults will get a kick out of watching it, too.Recommended for childrenaged 2 to 6 years old.Runtime: 75 minutes Sid and Gabriela go on an exciting trip to The Super Ultimate ScienceMuseum.They tour the museum with an amazing robot tour guideBobbybot.But when their bot fails to work properly, they have to worktogether to stop him before he destroys the museum.If your 2-to 6-year-oldchild loves science, this is perfect for you.Robots (2005)Runtime: 90 minutesSid the Science Kid: The Movie (2013) Rodney Copperbottom decides to move to Robot City to follow hisdream of becoming a great inventor.However, life in the big city isn’t allthat Rodney expects.As Rodney fights a corporate giant (企业巨头) andhelps old broken-down robots, he leads everyone to realize that shiny andnew isn’t always best.It’s recommended for ages 5 and older.The Iron Giant (1999)Runtime: 86 minutes A huge mass of metal rockets comes to Earth.The first to find whatturns out to be an enormous robot is a young boy named HogarthHughes, who makes friends with the bot and tries to protect it from aparanoid government agent (偏执的政府特工) seeking to destroy it.Afew scenes may be scary or suspenseful (悬疑的) for young childrenand the film contains some mildly unpleasant language.Recommended forages 8 and older.语篇解读:本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四部适合儿童观看的机器人电影。语篇解读:本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四部适合儿童观看的机器人电影。21.

That’s Scott Murdock.After five years of volunteering for MetroParks’ CHIP-in!program, he’s spent 4,760 official hours involunteering for parks around Tacoma, a port city in Washington. “I was born in Seattle, and grew up in Olympia.Apart from threeyears’ working in Idaho, I’ve never lived outside Washington State,”explains Murdock.“Growing up I went on a lot of long walks with theBoy Scouts (童子军).” Because of his busy working life, he almost gave up thehobby.When he retired in 2014, he realized he wanted to get back tohiking — and to give back to those mountains, trails and forests he lovedas a boy. That year on Parks Appreciation Day, he volunteered for CHIP-in!in Alderwood Park.“It had a lot of ivy (常春藤) and blackberries,”remembers Murdock.“So I said I’d like to take care of it, to giveback.” Since then Murdock has served nine years as a park steward, avolunteer who commits to regular monthly hours at a particular park andhelps organize other volunteers.Spending up to 20 hours a week workingin parks as he does, educating the public is also a part of the job.Oneday, while clearing away blackberries, a local resident came up andcomplained that he was taking away all the habitat for the birds. Murdock smiles.“I explained to her that what I was doing would letnative vegetation grow better, which provides much better food for birdsthan blackberries,” he says. Other benefits of clearing invasive things include creating more trailsin Metro Parks, thus protecting plants from human feet and encouragingwalkers to explore.Murdock has also found that bringing back wildlife alsodiscourages unwanted human use, like teenage parties or rubbish.语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。Scott Murdock退休后一直致力于公园志愿者服务。语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。Scott Murdock退休后一直致力于公园志愿者服务。24.

What can we infer about Murdock?A. He is a man of great talent.B. He has a sense of commitment.C. He is good at turning waste into treasure.D. He gets used to making plans in advance.解析: 推理判断题。通读全文尤其是第二段中的he’s spent 4,760 official hours in volunteering for parks around Tacoma和倒数第三段中的Spending up to 20 hours a week working in parks以及educatingthe public可知,退休后的Murdock投入了大量的时间致力于公园的志愿者服务。由此推知,他具有很强的社会责任感。C A start-up based in California is well on its way to doing what seemslike magic: creating meat from the air.Air Protein has created non-animal-based meat and seafood using nothing but microbes (微生物),water, and elements found in the air. The idea of making food from the air first came from NASA in the1960s.Researchers were looking for a way to recycle the carbon dioxide(CO2) that astronauts breathe out while on a mission (太空飞行任务), and realized they could use it to create edible material.But NASAsoon gave up the idea and moved on to other plans.In 2019, Air Proteinfounder Dr Lisa Dyson picked up where NASA left off. NASA researchers found that certain microbes could change CO2 intoa protein when mixed with water and energy and this is the technology thatAir Protein uses.Once the protein is taken out of the air, the companythen turns it into a powder that is used to create proteins that mimic thetaste, texture, and look of animal proteins. It was witnessing the consequences of Hurricane Katrina that ledDyson to begin thinking seriously about climate change and what she coulddo to reduce its effect. Dyson began to take an interest in the food industry because of thelarge amount of greenhouse gases it produces.It is the meat industry inparticular that is responsible for the most emissions.Yet meat consumptionis still growing all over the world, and indeed the world population isgrowing, with estimates of a population of 10 billion people by 2050. Air Protein’s solution could help because the process of making themeat uses CO2 already in the atmosphere.The energy the start-up uses isall renewable wind and solar power.Making meat from the air uses 1.5million times less land than the beef industry does and uses 15,000 timesless water.These are both resources that are really needed to fight climatechange. “We need to produce food in a way that isn’t damaging theplanet,” said Dyson.“We don’t have a choice.I think there’s a brightfuture when we bring innovation to the problem and change how our foodis made.”语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。加利福尼亚的一家公司以二氧化碳为原料生产出“空气素肉”,以帮助应对气候变化。语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。加利福尼亚的一家公司以二氧化碳为原料生产出“空气素肉”,以帮助应对气候变化。28. What is special about creating meat from the air?A. It was a forgotten space technology.B. It focuses on the health of astronauts.C. It was invented by a start-up company.D. It is supported by the government of California.解析: 细节理解题。根据第二段内容可知,用空气制造食物的想法最早是在20世纪60年代由美国航空航天局提出的,但随后他们很快就放弃了这个想法,直到2019年,Air Protein创始人LisaDyson博士才又将这一想法重拾起来。由此可知,用空气制造食物曾是一项被遗忘的太空技术。第三段中的NASA researchers foundthat ...Air Protein uses.也是提示。29. What concerned Dyson most?A. The rapid increase in population.B. People’s heavy dependence on meat.C. Serious consequences of natural disasters.D. The high environmental cost of the food industry.解析: 细节理解题。根据第四段内容可知,在目睹了飓风带来的后果后,Dyson开始认真思考气候变化以及她能做些什么来减少其影响;根据第五段前两句可知,最令Dyson担忧的是食品行业,特别是肉类行业会产生的大量温室气体,即其环境成本高。30. Why is the beef industry mentioned in Paragraph 6?A. To show why it is vital to use green energy.B. To explain what resources are in great need.C. To stress how effective Air Protein’s solution is.D. To describe who the competitor of Air Protein is.解析: 推理判断题。第六段首句指出Air Protein的解决方案(用空气制造肉)可能会(对应对气候变化)有所帮助,随后给出了原因;接着通过两组数据对用空气制造肉和传统牛肉行业在土地和水的使用方面进行了对比,指出用空气制造肉可以节约大量资源。由此可推知,在本段中提及牛肉行业是为了强调AirProtein的解决方案的有效性。31.

Every page helps fans relive the rich music history of MississippiNights with stories, photos, and memorabilia (纪念品).Over 1,000images on 288 pages in this hardcover edition make for a conversationpiece for anyone who loves music and concerts. “I enjoyed researching and collecting the historic images of theplace, including oral histories from musicians, owners, andstaff.Every word and every picture bring back memories of concerts andfun from when I was younger!” says Stacy.When she was young,Stacy often went with her mother to Peaches Records on South Hampton inSt.Louis.
