One day, the man shaded 22 under a tree near his house and talked with someone near him. He did not know what the 23 looked like, so he asked an old man, “What does the sun look like ” The old man was 24 to tell him, “The shape of the sun is like a large copper disk.” He was 25 at his answer, so he went home at once and knocked on the copper plate, and he heard the sound.
On the second day, he appeared under the tree again. He heard a bell 26 a church nearby and thought it was the sun. He 27 , “The sun is coming, and the sun is coming.” 28 , the people around were laughing and thought he was a silly man.

Dear Donna,
Help! I’m a 15-year-old middle school student in New York. In eight months, I’m going to take an entrance exam. To prepare for it, I’m studying six hours a day. I want to do well, but I’m really worried these days and I can’t sleep. What can I do
Yours,
Mary
Dear Mary,
Many students around the world have the same problems as you. Here is some advice to help you deal with the stress. Good luck!
1. Make a study plan for yourself, but don’t study too much in one day. You remember more by studying one hour each day for six days than six hours in one day. Also, don’t study late at night.
2. Have a rest for 15 to 20 minutes every two hours. Go outside and walk. Doing exercise is a great way to reduce (减少) stress.
3. Don’t eat for drink a lot of sugar or drink a lot of coffee. Eat food high in vita-min (维生素) B (for example, eggs, milk, green vegetable and rice). These give you energy (精力) and help you think more clearly.
4. A student partner can help you practice for the test. When you’re worried about the exam, you can talk to your partner. This can reduce stress, too.
Yours,
Donna

I hurried into the local store to get some last minute Christmas gifts. Surprised at the prices of the toys, I wondered if the grandkids would even play with them.
In the doll aisle (通道) , I saw a little boy about 5 holding a lovely doll. He kept touching her hair and held her gently. He counted (数) his money with his aunt but found out it was not enough. Then his aunt asked the boy to wait and left.
Then I talked to him and knew the doll was for his sister who was in heaven because of a car accident. His mother was going to be with her so he hoped his mother could take the doll to her. He also wanted his mother to take his photo with her so she wouldn’t ever forget him. He said he hoped to buy a white rose as well because mom loves white roses very much.
My heart nearly stopped beating. Noticing my sadness, the boy lowered his head and stopped talking. I reached into my purse and pulled out some bills and asked, “Shall we count your money again ” He grew excited and said, “Yes, I just knew it had to be enough”. Quietly I put my money in with his and we began to count it. Of course it was more than enough for the doll. He bought both the doll and a white rose. It was a great relief (宽慰) to find the smile on his face.
Two days later I read in the newspaper about a drunk driver hitting a car and killing a little girl and the mother. On the photo, the mother was holding a lovely white rose, the beautiful doll, and the picture of the little boy in the store.
The love that little boy had for his little sister and his mother was touching. I realized “We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.”
39．How did the boy manage to buy the doll
A．The writer gave active help to him. B．His aunt bought it for him.
C．He borrowed money from the writer. D．He had enough money himself.
40．What can you learn from the passage
A．The boy’s aunt didn’t want to buy the doll.
B．The writer bought a doll and a rose for the boy.
C．The writer visited the boy after he knew the story.
D．The boy’s sister and mother died in a car accident.
41．What does the writer want to tell us
A．Love from mothers is touching. B．Giving helps us have a meaningful life.
C．Money is very important in life. D．Driving after drinking is dangerous.
C
It’s a hot time for Chinese language learning across the world, not only because of China’s higher position in the world but also because of the increasing economic (经济的) and cultural connections between China and other countries. For example, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) (阿拉伯联合酋长国) plans to open Chinese language courses in 200 public primary and middle schools, so experienced Chinese teachers are needed.
Other Chinese courses opened across the world show the increasing need for Chinese-speaking talent. Mandarin (普通话) became an elective (可选择的) foreign language in Russian college entrance exam. Following English, German, French and Spanish, Mandarin has become the fifth elective test subject for the exam.
Spain has more than 40,000 people learning Chinese. Last year, about 8,000 people took the Chinese Proficiency Test (HSK) exam. The number of people who took the test was the biggest, according to Xinhua News Agency.
In the US, learning Chinese has been thriving for many years and is now a popular choice for American children, especially those who were born in good families. The children begin to learn Chinese at an early age because their parents believe that learning Chinese will help them build successful international careers (职业).
42．Why is Chinese language learning so hot
A．Because many foreigners like Chinese culture.
B．Because China has the highest position in the world.
C．Because China helps a lot of countries to develop.
D．Because China has more international influence around the world.
43．The following languages are elective test subjects in Russia EXCEPT ________.
A．French B．Spanish C．Japanese D．Mandarin
44．What can we know about Chinese learning around the world
A．The UAE needs experienced English teachers.
B．All American children learn Chinese at an early age
C．About one-fifth of the Spanish learning Chinese took the HSK in 2018.
D．The Mandarin exam must be taken before going to Russian colleges.
45．The main idea of the passage is ________.
A．more people in the UAE begin to learn Chinese
B．Chinese language learning is popular around the world
C．some foreign countries want more Chinese teachers
D．many American children are learning Chinese now

5G technology would be widely used by 2020, causing some experts to say the “5G epoch” is coming. Yet, when reporting about 5G, many reporters only described it as a “much faster” technology than 4G. As a result, what people know about 5G is that they could “download a movie within one second”.
Actually, 5G technology has many more advantages than 4G besides the speed. It can be used for at least two purposes—for connecting everything and removing delays (消除网络延时).
Connecting everything is one of the strongest functions of 5G. It makes the Internet Things possible. Take driverless smart cars as an example. 5G technology can connect all parts of a transportation system including traffic lights, CCTV cameras and cars to build up perfect coordination (协调). In this way, these cars can avoid obstacles (障碍) and move on driving routes, which will help improve self-driving technology. And removing delays might be useful especially in online games. Factories can produce more macro base stations to allow more people to use. The more users, the lower cost. Therefore, 5G technology won’t cost as much as they thought.
46．The underlined word “epoch” in Para 1 means ________.
A．technology B．age
C．equipment D．sign
47．5G technology can help improve self-driving technology because ________.
A．it makes the self-driving car run much faster.
B．it helps to connect the cars with the Internet
C．it helps the cars avoid obstacles and move on driving routes
D．it helps the cars control the traffic lights and CCTV cameras
48．Factories can produce more macro base stations so that ________.
A．people can pay less for 5G B．5G can be compared with 4G
C．the “5G epoch” can come sooner D．few people can enjoy the 5G technology
49．According to the passage, we can know that ________.
A．people know a lot about 5G
B．5G is much faster but more expensive than 4G
C．connecting everything is the strongest function of 5G
D．online game players can enjoy continuous high speed of 5G
50．What’s the main idea of the passage
A．The “5G Epoch” is coming. B．The latest 5G products have been invented.
C．5G costs less with higher speed. D．5G is more than about high speed.
四、任务型阅读(5小题，每小题1分，共10分)
Nobody imagines that, one day, they might be left on a desert island but it could happen. So it’s a good idea to learn a few key skills that would help you to live if it happens to you.
51
The first thing you need to do is to make a shelter (躲避处) on the beach, near the sea, so that you can watch any ships that pass your island. Your most important task is finding a way to get off the island, so you can’t miss any chances of seeing somebody who could save you.
52
It’s a good idea to build your shelter near some trees. It will provide shade (树荫) from the hot sun. If you get sunburned, you won’t be able to do what you need to stay alive. If there were coconut trees, you could also use the oil from the coconut to protect your skin.
53
Clearly, you need to stay out of the way of any dangerous animals or insects. Make a bed that is off the ground if you don’t want to share your bed with snakes or other creepy crawlies.
54
You will need about ten liters of fresh water per day. If you can’t find a river on the island, rain water will be your best chance of living. You need to make containers (容器) to catch and keep rain water. Large plants with huge leaves are a good way to collect water. But never drink sea water—it will make you even thirstier.
55
Finally, you need to do anything possible to be seen and saved. If you don’t have what you need to make a fire, then you can write “HELP” on the beach using rocks to spell out the word.
A．Make sure somebody sees you
B．Make a shelter and watch the sea
C．Drink sea water when you’re thirty
D．Keep away from dangerous animals
E．Stay away from the hot sunshine
F．Collect enough fresh water

“I don’t like my parents. They always tell me I should do this, and should not do that. It is really boring. Sometimes it 61 a lot of stress for me,” said Wang Liang, a middle school student in Beijing. Do you have the same problem Perhaps your parents also had the same problem when they 62 young.
Why aren’t some parents so friendly in their 63 eyes One of the most important reasons is when someone becomes a parent, he or she often worries about everything. They worry about some of your 64 , the choices of friends, the food you eat, your study at school and so on.
All these things are part of your life. They want you to grow up 65 and happily.
So how can you make things better It’s 66 than you think. Just make sure your parents know what you’re 67 . Why don’t you get them to know your friends You shouldn’t 68 with them over something. Say sorry to them when you make mistakes. Talk about your ideas with them and they may talk about 69 with you. Most of all, try to think about why your parents do this or do that. It’s also the 70 time for them to be parents, so they need your help and understanding.
Remember that a good communication makes a better relationship.
七、阅读短文，回答问题。(5小题，每小题2分，共10分)
A new book, the bestseller, Willpower, says that having strong willpower (意志力) is necessary to a successful life. The book starts by describing a famous experiment: The Marshmallow (软糖) Test. In 1972. a psychology (心理学) professor Mischel tested the willpower of 600 kids. In the experiment, each child was left alone in a room for fifteen minutes with a marshmallow on a table in front of them. They were given two choices: they could either eat the marshmallow or, if they waited fifteen minutes, they’d be given a second marshmallow (and then they could eat both).
So, what did the kids do 70% ate the first marshmallow within the fifteen minutes, but the other 30% showed willpower—they didn’t eat the first one and waited for the second marshmallow quietly.
Twenty years later, Mischel discovered something interesting: He got in touch with the children and found that those with strong willpower were getting better marks at university, were better behaved and were more popular. So, how important it is to have strong willpower!
But don’t worry if you aren’t good at controlling yourself. The authors say that willpower is like a muscle (肌肉). The more you exercise it, the stronger it gets. However, just like any muscle, your “willpower muscle” can get tired. So, if you have to do lots of things that need willpower, take a break. That way, you’ll build up your willpower again.
Lastly, the authors mention that if you want to have a lot of willpower, you can learn foreign languages. People who learn foreign languages usually have more willpower.
根据短文内容，回答下列问题。
71．What does the book Willpower say
72．Who did the test about Marshmallow
73．How could children get a second marshmallow in the test
74．When did Mischel discover something interesting
75．What subject can you learn in the school if you want to have lots of willpower

Dear Donna,
Help! I’m a 15-year-old middle school student in New York. In eight months, I’m going to take an entrance exam. To prepare for it, I’m studying six hours a day. I want to do well, but I’m really worried these days and I can’t sleep. What can I do
Yours,
Mary
Dear Mary,
Many students around the world have the same problems as you. Here is some advice to help you deal with the stress. Good luck!
1. Make a study plan for yourself, but don’t study too much in one day. You remember more by studying one hour each day for six days than six hours in one day. Also, don’t study late at night.
2. Have a rest for 15 to 20 minutes every two hours. Go outside and walk. Doing exercise is a great way to reduce (减少) stress.
3. Don’t eat for drink a lot of sugar or drink a lot of coffee. Eat food high in vita-min (维生素) B (for example, eggs, milk, green vegetable and rice). These give you energy (精力) and help you think more clearly.
4. A student partner can help you practice for the test. When you’re worried about the exam, you can talk to your partner. This can reduce stress, too.
Yours,
Donna

I hurried into the local store to get some last minute Christmas gifts. Surprised at the prices of the toys, I wondered if the grandkids would even play with them.
In the doll aisle (通道) , I saw a little boy about 5 holding a lovely doll. He kept touching her hair and held her gently. He counted (数) his money with his aunt but found out it was not enough. Then his aunt asked the boy to wait and left.
Then I talked to him and knew the doll was for his sister who was in heaven because of a car accident. His mother was going to be with her so he hoped his mother could take the doll to her. He also wanted his mother to take his photo with her so she wouldn’t ever forget him. He said he hoped to buy a white rose as well because mom loves white roses very much.
My heart nearly stopped beating. Noticing my sadness, the boy lowered his head and stopped talking. I reached into my purse and pulled out some bills and asked, “Shall we count your money again ” He grew excited and said, “Yes, I just knew it had to be enough”. Quietly I put my money in with his and we began to count it. Of course it was more than enough for the doll. He bought both the doll and a white rose. It was a great relief (宽慰) to find the smile on his face.
Two days later I read in the newspaper about a drunk driver hitting a car and killing a little girl and the mother. On the photo, the mother was holding a lovely white rose, the beautiful doll, and the picture of the little boy in the store.
The love that little boy had for his little sister and his mother was touching. I realized “We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.”

5G technology would be widely used by 2020, causing some experts to say the “5G epoch” is coming. Yet, when reporting about 5G, many reporters only described it as a “much faster” technology than 4G. As a result, what people know about 5G is that they could “download a movie within one second”.
Actually, 5G technology has many more advantages than 4G besides the speed. It can be used for at least two purposes—for connecting everything and removing delays (消除网络延时).
Connecting everything is one of the strongest functions of 5G. It makes the Internet Things possible. Take driverless smart cars as an example. 5G technology can connect all parts of a transportation system including traffic lights, CCTV cameras and cars to build up perfect coordination (协调). In this way, these cars can avoid obstacles (障碍) and move on driving routes, which will help improve self-driving technology. And removing delays might be useful especially in online games. Factories can produce more macro base stations to allow more people to use. The more users, the lower cost. Therefore, 5G technology won’t cost as much as they thought.
46．The underlined word “epoch” in Para 1 means ________.
A．technology B．age
C．equipment D．sign
47．5G technology can help improve self-driving technology because ________.
A．it makes the self-driving car run much faster.
B．it helps to connect the cars with the Internet
C．it helps the cars avoid obstacles and move on driving routes
D．it helps the cars control the traffic lights and CCTV cameras
48．Factories can produce more macro base stations so that ________.
A．people can pay less for 5G B．5G can be compared with 4G
C．the “5G epoch” can come sooner D．few people can enjoy the 5G technology
49．According to the passage, we can know that ________.
A．people know a lot about 5G
B．5G is much faster but more expensive than 4G
C．connecting everything is the strongest function of 5G
D．online game players can enjoy continuous high speed of 5G
50．What’s the main idea of the passage
A．The “5G Epoch” is coming. B．The latest 5G products have been invented.
C．5G costs less with higher speed. D．5G is more than about high speed.
【答案】46．B 47．C 48．A 49．D 50．D
【导语】本文介绍了5G技术的优势和应用，包括其连接万物的功能、消除网络延时的潜力以及相对较低的使用成本。文章通过无人驾驶智能汽车和在线游戏的例子，说明了5G技术在不同领域的实际应用和潜在价值。
46．词义猜测题。根据“5G technology would be widely used by 2020, causing some experts to say the ‘5G epoch’ is coming.”可知，到2020年，5G技术将被广泛使用，一些专家认为“5G时代”即将到来，划线词与age意思相近。故选B。
47．细节理解题。根据“In this way, these cars can avoid obstacles (障碍) and move on driving routes, which will help improve self-driving technology.”可知，这些汽车可以避开障碍物，在行驶路线上行驶，这将有助于提高自动驾驶技术。故选C。
48．细节理解题。根据“Factories can produce more macro base stations to allow more people to use. The more users, the lower cost.”可知，工厂可以生产更多的宏基站，让更多的人使用，用户越多，成本越低，因此人们需要花费的也越少。故选A。
49．推理判断题。根据“And removing delays might be useful especially in online games.”可知，消除延迟可能很有用，尤其是在网络游戏中，因此推测网络游戏玩家可以享受5G的持续高速。故选D。
50．主旨大意题。根据“Actually, 5G technology has many more advantages than 4G besides the speed.”可知，本文介绍了5G技术除了速度之外，还有比4G多得多的优势。故选D。
四、任务型阅读(5小题，每小题1分，共10分)
Nobody imagines that, one day, they might be left on a desert island but it could happen. So it’s a good idea to learn a few key skills that would help you to live if it happens to you.
51
The first thing you need to do is to make a shelter (躲避处) on the beach, near the sea, so that you can watch any ships that pass your island. Your most important task is finding a way to get off the island, so you can’t miss any chances of seeing somebody who could save you.
52
It’s a good idea to build your shelter near some trees. It will provide shade (树荫) from the hot sun. If you get sunburned, you won’t be able to do what you need to stay alive. If there were coconut trees, you could also use the oil from the coconut to protect your skin.
53
Clearly, you need to stay out of the way of any dangerous animals or insects. Make a bed that is off the ground if you don’t want to share your bed with snakes or other creepy crawlies.
54
You will need about ten liters of fresh water per day. If you can’t find a river on the island, rain water will be your best chance of living. You need to make containers (容器) to catch and keep rain water. Large plants with huge leaves are a good way to collect water. But never drink sea water—it will make you even thirstier.
55
Finally, you need to do anything possible to be seen and saved. If you don’t have what you need to make a fire, then you can write “HELP” on the beach using rocks to spell out the word.
A．Make sure somebody sees you
B．Make a shelter and watch the sea
C．Drink sea water when you’re thirty
D．Keep away from dangerous animals
E．Stay away from the hot sunshine

七、阅读短文，回答问题。(5小题，每小题2分，共10分)
A new book, the bestseller, Willpower, says that having strong willpower (意志力) is necessary to a successful life. The book starts by describing a famous experiment: The Marshmallow (软糖) Test. In 1972. a psychology (心理学) professor Mischel tested the willpower of 600 kids. In the experiment, each child was left alone in a room for fifteen minutes with a marshmallow on a table in front of them. They were given two choices: they could either eat the marshmallow or, if they waited fifteen minutes, they’d be given a second marshmallow (and then they could eat both).
So, what did the kids do 70% ate the first marshmallow within the fifteen minutes, but the other 30% showed willpower—they didn’t eat the first one and waited for the second marshmallow quietly.
Twenty years later, Mischel discovered something interesting: He got in touch with the children and found that those with strong willpower were getting better marks at university, were better behaved and were more popular. So, how important it is to have strong willpower!
But don’t worry if you aren’t good at controlling yourself. The authors say that willpower is like a muscle (肌肉). The more you exercise it, the stronger it gets. However, just like any muscle, your “willpower muscle” can get tired. So, if you have to do lots of things that need willpower, take a break. That way, you’ll build up your willpower again.
Lastly, the authors mention that if you want to have a lot of willpower, you can learn foreign languages. People who learn foreign languages usually have more willpower.
根据短文内容，回答下列问题。
71．What does the book Willpower say
72．Who did the test about Marshmallow
73．How could children get a second marshmallow in the test
74．When did Mischel discover something interesting

【答案】例文：
Dear Mary,
Thank you for your last e-mail. Let me tell you what we did on 5th March.
As a member of volunteers, I got up early because I was too excited to sleep. In the morning, we volunteers brought some flowers and fresh fruit. As we arrived at the Happiness Nursing Home, we sent them our best wishes too. How happy they were!
Then we cleaned the windows and swept the floor for them. After that, some of us performed activities for them, such as singing songs and dancing. Some of us read newspapers for them. Some of us chatted with them. When it was time for us volunteers to leave, they were grateful for our kindness.
From this meaningful activity, I found that we are supposed to care for the old and respect them. In our daily life, we should offer our seats to them on buses. And we should treat our own grandparents more kindly.
If you have the chance in China, I hope you can join us.
