Liu Jichen, 23, a student from Tsinghua University, has developed a WeChat mini-program called “Clear Your Plate”. After a meal, users can open the mini-program and take a picture of their empty plates. Once the image is recognized by the AI(Artificial Intelligence), students can collect points and use them to buy gifts or purchase charity meals to children in impoverished(贫困的) rural areas.
Liu and his team, together with other organizations, launched the “Clear Your Plate” campaign in November for the third year. It has swept over 1,017 universities across the country. The one-month campaign attracted almost 1.6 million participants and collectively reduced food waste by 862 tons and carbon emissions(碳排放) by 3,337 tons.
“Technological innovation is a good way to reduce food waste,” Liu thought. He organized a team of 20 members to work on the project at the end of 2017. To solve the AI’s problem of identifying photos of empty plates, the team spent half a year collecting over 100,000 samples in canteens and restaurants. In 2018, the mini-program was officially put into operation on Oct 16, World Food Day. They then launched a campaign later that year.
“There were so many unknowns in research and development. For our team members, the biggest challenge was whether we were confident enough to complete it,” Liu said. They not only achieved their goal, but now, the mini-program has more than 5 million registered users, according to Liu. “We hope our efforts can start a new trend among the younger generation by encouraging them to cherish(珍惜) their food and develop the habit of thrift(节约),” Liu added.
4. What can we know about the “Clear Your Plate” mini-program
A. It aims to put an end to waste and encourage thrift.
B. Its 6 million users are mostly students.
C. It helped reduce food waste by 3,337 tons.

Yawning (打哈欠) is something we all do - maybe because we’re bored carrying out boring tasks or because we’re tired. Sometimes, just seeing other people yawn can set you off. But is this biological function really contagious (传染的), and why do we do it in the first place
Many of us think we open our mouths when we yawn to take in more oxygen, but in fact it appears there is no clear biological reason. According to BBC Bitesize, new research suggests it might be because yawning cools the brain down and prevents it from overheating, much like the fan in your laptop. This might be why we’re more likely to feel sleepy and yawn in warm temperatures.
What is clear is that we yawn more when we’re exhausted and ready for a nap, and we can’t control when we do it - once we start, there’s no stopping us! But it’s also true that yawning is a very contagious behavior. John Drury, a researcher from Sussex University found in his research that there is a connection with our social group and how close we are to the people in it. If we identify with the person who exhibits the behavior, we are likely to copy it too.
Another research by the University of Nottingham in 2017 found similar results. They asked volunteers to watch other people yawn. They found their ability to resist yawning when others around them yawned was limited. And the urge to yawn was increased when people were told they couldn’t. They also found, when using electrical stimulation, that they were able to increase people’s desire to yawn. These findings, they say, could be useful in treating other conditions like Tourette’s, which involve the same area of the brain.
What is certain is that a yawn can creep up on us at any time even when we think we’re not tired -but, I hope, not when you’re reading this article!
8. What is the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To draw reader’s attention.
B. To introduce the topic of the text.
C. To express the main idea of the text.
D. To list something for readers to think about.
9. According to a new research, we yawn because________________.
A. we are too exhausted. B. our brain needs more oxygen.
C. we are bored with difficult tasks. D. our brain needs to be cooled down.
10. What is the similarity between John Drury’s findings and those of the university of Nottingham
A. Humans can’t stop yawning as it is beneficial.
B. When told not to yawn, we will yawn less frequently.
C. Using electrical stimulation can stimulate people to yawn.
D. We are more likely to yawn when someone around us yawns.
11. What is the text mainly about
A. The reasons for yawning. B. The benefits of studying yawning.
C. The necessity of yawning. D. The similarity of the studies on yawning.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了我们打哈欠的原因,哈欠的传染性及不可人为控制。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段的“Yawning (打哈欠) is something we all do - maybe because we’re bored carrying out boring tasks or because we’re tired. Sometimes, just seeing other people yawn can set you off. But is this biological function really contagious (传染的), and why do we do it in the first place (打哈欠是我们都会做的事情——也许是因为我们厌倦了做无聊的任务,或者是因为我们累了。有时候,仅仅是看到别人打哈欠就会让你生气。但是这种生物功能真的具有传染性吗?我们为什么要这样做呢?)”可知,第一段介绍了打哈欠大概的原因,以两个问题引出下文对打哈欠是否有传染性的阐述,因此第一段的目的是引出本文的话题,故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“According to BBC Bitesize, new research suggests it might be because yawning cools the brain down and prevents it from overheating, much like the fan in your laptop. (据BBC Bitesize报道,新的研究表明,打哈欠可能是因为打哈欠能给大脑降温,防止大脑过热,就像你笔记本电脑里的风扇一样。)”可知,根据一项新的研究,我们打哈欠是因为我们的大脑需要降温。故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“John Drury, a researcher from Sussex University found in his research that there is a connection with our social group and how close we are to the people in it. If we identify with the person who exhibits the behavior, we are likely to copy it too. (来自苏塞克斯大学的研究人员约翰·德鲁里在他的研究中发现,我们与社会群体的联系以及我们与其中的人的亲密程度。如果我们认同表现出这种行为的人,我们很可能也会效仿。)”和倒数第二段的“They found their ability to resist yawning when others around them yawned was limited. (他们发现,当周围的人打哈欠时,他们抵抗打哈欠的能力是有限的。)”可知,John Drury的发现和诺丁汉大学的发现的共同之处是当我们周围的人打哈欠时,我们也更有可能打哈欠。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第二段的“According to BBC Bitesize, new research suggests it might be because yawning cools the brain down and prevents it from overheating, much like the fan in your laptop. (据BBC Bitesize报道,新的研究表明,打哈欠可能是因为打哈欠能给大脑降温,防止大脑过热,就像你笔记本电脑里的风扇一样。)”可知,本文主要讲的是我们打哈欠的原因,故选A。
D
Many college students turn to ADHD (注意缺陷障碍) medicine during the exam week, which is regarded as “smart drugs” that will help their academic (学术的) performance. The thinking is that if the drugs help students with ADHD improve their focus, they should provide the same benefit for people who don’t have the disorder.
But a new study shows that drugs can actually damage brain function of healthy students who take the drug hoping to boost their intelligence. “It’s not a smart drug which will suddenly improve their ability to understand information they read,” said Lisa Weyandt, a professor at the University of Rhode Island.
To test whether this effect is real or not, researchers organized 13 students to take part in two five-hour study sessions(一段时间)in the lab. The students took the standard 30mg ADHD drugs before one session, and a sugar pill before the other. Students on ADHD drugs did experience an increase in their blood pressure and heart rates. “The medicine was having an effect on their brain,” Weyandt said. The students also showed an improvement in their ability to focus, the researchers found.
However, students on ADHD drugs experienced no improvement in reading comprehension, reading fluency or knowledge reviews, compared to when they’d taken a sugar pill. “We read aloud stories to them and asked them to recall information from the stories,” she said. “That didn’t improve.”
Worse, the ADHD drug actually harms students’ memory. It’s often misused because people pull all-nighters and they’re tired, and they think it’s going to keep them awake. Maybe it does, but it’s certainly not going to help their academic work. The brain is still developing until the mid to late 20s. It’s important to keep it healthy. There’s also a chance that ADHD drugs could endanger a student’s heart health.
12. Why do some college students take ADHD drugs
A. To improve their sleeping. B. To get higher marks.
C. To make them feel relaxed. D. To treat brain disorder.
13. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “boost” in Paragragh2
A. Analyze. B. Affect. C. Improve. D. Understand.
14. What effect did ADHD drugs have on the students
A. They became more focused.
B. Their blood pressure was reduced.
C. Their reading fluency was greatly raised.
D. They could remember better and more quickly.
15. What is the author’s attitude towards the ADHD drug
A. Indifferent B. Positive C. Doubtful D. Negative
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项新的研究,该研究表明,ADHD药物实际上会损害那些希望通过服用药物来提高智力的健康学生的大脑功能。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Many college students turn to ADHD(注意缺陷障碍)medicine during the exam week, which is regarded as “smart drugs” that will help their academic(学术的)performance.(许多大学生在考试周转向ADHD药物,这被认为是有助于他们学习成绩的“聪明药物”。)”可知,大学生服用ADHD药物是为了提高自己的学习成绩。故选B。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线单词下一句““It’s not a smart drug which will suddenly improve their ability to understand information they read,” said Lisa Weyandt, a professor at the University of Rhode Island.(罗德岛大学教授Lisa Weyandt说:“这不是一种能突然提高他们理解所读信息能力的聪明药物。”)”可知,该教授认为这种药并不能提高他们理解力的聪明药。由此可知,服用这些药的人本希望能够提高自己的大脑功能。也就是划线单词的意思和“提高”相似。选项A“Analyze (分析)”;选项B“Affect (影响)”;选项C“Improve (提高)”;选项D“Understand (理解)”。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段““The medicine was having an effect on their brain,” Weyandt said. The students also showed an improvement in their ability to focus, the researchers found.(“药物对他们的大脑产生了影响,”Weyandt说。研究人员发现,学生们的注意力也有所提高。)”可知,服用该药物的学生注意力有所提高。故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“However, students on ADHD drugs experienced no improvement in reading comprehension, reading fluency or knowledge reviews, compared to when they’d taken a sugar pill.(然而,与服用糖丸的学生相比,服用ADHD药物的学生在阅读理解、阅读流畅性或知识回顾方面没有任何改善。)”以及最后一段“Worse, the ADHD drug actually harms students’ memory. It’s often misused because people pull all-nighters and they’re tired, and they think it’s going to keep them awake. Maybe it does, but it’s certainly not going to help their academic work. The brain is still developing until the mid to late 20s. It’s important to keep it healthy. There’s also a chance that ADHD drugs could endanger a student’s heart health.(更糟糕的是,ADHD药物实际上损害了学生的记忆力。它经常被误用,因为人们熬夜,他们很累,他们认为它会让他们保持清醒。也许有用,但肯定对他们的学业没有帮助。大脑在20多岁之前还在发育。保持健康是很重要的。多动症药物也有可能危及学生的心脏健康。)”可知,作者认为ADHD药物不仅不会帮助学生提高理解力,反而会损害学生记忆力和心脏健康。由此可知,作者对于该药物的态度是不支持的,反对的。故选D。

Whether we notice it or not, our child is a little reflection of ourselves. They grow up looking more and more like us. They even have similar personalities and hobbies. And in some cases, the standard of choosing a good friend.
One day, my 10-year-old Jane said, “Mom, I made a new friend at school today. Can she come over tomorrow ” Her words made me extremely happy because Jane was a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of her shell.
“Sure, honey, that sounds great.” I said, thinking back to my own childhood best friend, Susan. We lived across the street from each other in Washington Heights, New York. We met at the age of 10, too. Like my daughter. I was shy and had trouble making friends. But Susan drew me out. She was one of the friendliest people in school, with shiny black hair and a mile-wide smile. Thanks to Susan. I was happy every day.
In senior high school, Susan went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time we had to be away from each other for a few days. “I’ll be back soon and I will write to you as soon as I arrive.” she told me. But I didn’t get her phone call nor receive any mail from her. Soon, my family moved to New Jersey, making my hope of seeing Susan impossible.
Whenever I thought of him, tears came into my eyes.
The next day Jane brought her new friend home. “Hi, Mrs. Smith.” the little girl said. Her hair was so shiny and black and she gave me a big smile. “My name is Jo. My mom will pick me up 2 hours later.”
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。
Paragraph1:
I was puzzled because my daughter’s new friend looked so familiar.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Two hours passed really quickly, and there was a knock on the door.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I was puzzled because my daughter’s new friend looked so familiar. But I was sure that I had never met Jo before. She told me that her family just moved from Los Angeles, which puzzled me even more because I had never been to Los Angeles and we had no relatives living in Los Angeles, either. I convinced myself that it was only my imagination. The two girls got on very well and they giggled from time to time. I watched them play and felt so happy for my daughter from the bottom of my heart.
Two hours passed really quickly, and there was a knock on the door. It was Jo’s mom coming to pick her up later that afternoon. On seeing her face, I was shocked. “Judy!” she cried. “It’s me, Susan!” We embraced each other. It turned out that her father’s company sent his father to Los Angeles before they settled in Florida. She tried calling me later but we had moved. The two little girls were happy to see their mothers became good friends at once before we told them our story, with happy tears rolling down our cheeks.
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇读后续写作文。
【详解】通过阅读所给文章可知,作者的女儿Jane想要邀请自己的朋友来家里,这让作者想起了自己童年时的好朋友Susan,回忆了当初和Susan相处的事情,后来因为作者搬家就没能再和Susan见面。第二天Jane把新朋友带回家,小女孩说自己叫Jo,她妈妈两个小时后来接她。
续写部分分为两段,第一段开头是:我很困惑,因为我女儿的新朋友看起来很面熟。所以后文应该是讲述作者对于觉得Jo面熟的困惑,以及看到Jo和Jane两个女孩相处得很好,作者从心底里为女儿感到高兴。
第二段开头是:两个小时过得真快,有人敲门。本段应该写Jo的妈妈来接Jo,作者发现正是Susan,Susan曾经联系过作者,但作者一家已经搬走了。两个小女孩也很为他们高兴,Susan和作者都留下了快乐的泪水。
最后还要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右。
【点睛】本文描写详略得当,使用了高级词汇和高级句子。如:puzzle sb.;convince oneself that;imagination;get on very well;turn out等高级词汇;She told me that her family just moved from Los Angeles, which puzzled me even more because I had never been to Los Angeles and we had no relatives living in Los Angeles, either.运用宾语从句和非限制性定语从句;The two little girls were happy to see their mothers became good friends at once before we told them our story, with happy tears rolling down our cheeks.运用时间状语从句等高级句式。

Liu Jichen, 23, a student from Tsinghua University, has developed a WeChat mini-program called “Clear Your Plate”. After a meal, users can open the mini-program and take a picture of their empty plates. Once the image is recognized by the AI(Artificial Intelligence), students can collect points and use them to buy gifts or purchase charity meals to children in impoverished(贫困的) rural areas.
Liu and his team, together with other organizations, launched the “Clear Your Plate” campaign in November for the third year. It has swept over 1,017 universities across the country. The one-month campaign attracted almost 1.6 million participants and collectively reduced food waste by 862 tons and carbon emissions(碳排放) by 3,337 tons.
“Technological innovation is a good way to reduce food waste,” Liu thought. He organized a team of 20 members to work on the project at the end of 2017. To solve the AI’s problem of identifying photos of empty plates, the team spent half a year collecting over 100,000 samples in canteens and restaurants. In 2018, the mini-program was officially put into operation on Oct 16, World Food Day. They then launched a campaign later that year.
“There were so many unknowns in research and development. For our team members, the biggest challenge was whether we were confident enough to complete it,” Liu said. They not only achieved their goal, but now, the mini-program has more than 5 million registered users, according to Liu. “We hope our efforts can start a new trend among the younger generation by encouraging them to cherish(珍惜) their food and develop the habit of thrift(节约),” Liu added.
4. What can we know about the “Clear Your Plate” mini-program
A. It aims to put an end to waste and encourage thrift.
B. Its 6 million users are mostly students.
C. It helped reduce food waste by 3,337 tons.
D. It is an exchange of food for rewards to help poor children.
5. What challenge did Liu and his team face

C. They lacked professional technical support.
D. They had difficulty gathering enough samples.
6. Which of the following best describes Liu Jichen

Yawning (打哈欠) is something we all do - maybe because we’re bored carrying out boring tasks or because we’re tired. Sometimes, just seeing other people yawn can set you off. But is this biological function really contagious (传染的), and why do we do it in the first place
Many of us think we open our mouths when we yawn to take in more oxygen, but in fact it appears there is no clear biological reason. According to BBC Bitesize, new research suggests it might be because yawning cools the brain down and prevents it from overheating, much like the fan in your laptop. This might be why we’re more likely to feel sleepy and yawn in warm temperatures.
What is clear is that we yawn more when we’re exhausted and ready for a nap, and we can’t control when we do it - once we start, there’s no stopping us! But it’s also true that yawning is a very contagious behavior. John Drury, a researcher from Sussex University found in his research that there is a connection with our social group and how close we are to the people in it. If we identify with the person who exhibits the behavior, we are likely to copy it too.
Another research by the University of Nottingham in 2017 found similar results. They asked volunteers to watch other people yawn. They found their ability to resist yawning when others around them yawned was limited. And the urge to yawn was increased when people were told they couldn’t. They also found, when using electrical stimulation, that they were able to increase people’s desire to yawn. These findings, they say, could be useful in treating other conditions like Tourette’s, which involve the same area of the brain.
What is certain is that a yawn can creep up on us at any time even when we think we’re not tired -but, I hope, not when you’re reading this article!
8. What is the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To draw reader’s attention.
B. To introduce the topic of the text.
C. To express the main idea of the text.
D. To list something for readers to think about.
9. According to a new research, we yawn because________________.
A. we are too exhausted. B. our brain needs more oxygen.
C. we are bored with difficult tasks. D. our brain needs to be cooled down.
10. What is the similarity between John Drury’s findings and those of the university of Nottingham
A. Humans can’t stop yawning as it is beneficial.
B. When told not to yawn, we will yawn less frequently.
C Using electrical stimulation can stimulate people to yawn.
D. We are more likely to yawn when someone around us yawns.
11. What is the text mainly about
A. The reasons for yawning. B. The benefits of studying yawning.
C. The necessity of yawning. D. The similarity of the studies on yawning.
D
Many college students turn to ADHD (注意缺陷障碍) medicine during the exam week, which is regarded as “smart drugs” that will help their academic (学术的) performance. The thinking is that if the drugs help students with ADHD improve their focus, they should provide the same benefit for people who don’t have the disorder.
But a new study shows that drugs can actually damage brain function of healthy students who take the drug hoping to boost their intelligence. “It’s not a smart drug which will suddenly improve their ability to understand information they read,” said Lisa Weyandt, a professor at the University of Rhode Island.
To test whether this effect is real or not, researchers organized 13 students to take part in two five-hour study sessions(一段时间)in the lab. The students took the standard 30mg ADHD drugs before one session, and a sugar pill before the other. Students on ADHD drugs did experience an increase in their blood pressure and heart rates. “The medicine was having an effect on their brain,” Weyandt said. The students also showed an improvement in their ability to focus, the researchers found.
However, students on ADHD drugs experienced no improvement in reading comprehension, reading fluency or knowledge reviews, compared to when they’d taken a sugar pill. “We read aloud stories to them and asked them to recall information from the stories,” she said. “That didn’t improve.”
Worse, the ADHD drug actually harms students’ memory. It’s often misused because people pull all-nighters and they’re tired, and they think it’s going to keep them awake. Maybe it does, but it’s certainly not going to help their academic work. The brain is still developing until the mid to late 20s. It’s important to keep it healthy. There’s also a chance that ADHD drugs could endanger a student’s heart health.
12. Why do some college students take ADHD drugs
A. To improve their sleeping. B. To get higher marks.
C. To make them feel relaxed. D. To treat brain disorder.
13. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “boost” in Paragragh2
A. Analyze. B. Affect. C. Improve. D. Understand.
14. What effect did ADHD drugs have on the students
A. They became more focused.
B. Their blood pressure was reduced.
C. Their reading fluency was greatly raised.
D. They could remember better and more quickly.
15. What is the author’s attitude towards the ADHD drug
A. Indifferent B. Positive C. Doubtful D. Negative

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Whether we notice it or not, our child is a little reflection of ourselves. They grow up looking more and more like us. They even have similar personalities and hobbies. And in some cases, the standard of choosing a good friend.
One day, my 10-year-old Jane said, “Mom, I made a new friend at school today. Can she come over tomorrow ” Her words made me extremely happy because Jane was a shy girl and I wanted her to make some friends to bring her out of her shell.
“Sure, honey, that sounds great.” I said, thinking back to my own childhood best friend, Susan. We lived across the street from each other in Washington Heights, New York. We met at the age of 10, too. Like my daughter. I was shy and had trouble making friends. But Susan drew me out. She was one of the friendliest people in school, with shiny black hair and a mile-wide smile. Thanks to Susan. I was happy every day.
In senior high school, Susan went on a trip to Florida. This was the first time we had to be away from each other for a few days. “I’ll be back soon and I will write to you as soon as I arrive.” she told me. But I didn’t get her phone call nor receive any mail from her. Soon, my family moved to New Jersey, making my hope of seeing Susan impossible.
Whenever I thought of him, tears came into my eyes.
The next day Jane brought her new friend home. “Hi, Mrs. Smith.” the little girl said. Her hair was so shiny and black and she gave me a big smile. “My name is Jo. My mom will pick me up 2 hours later.”
