Have you ever taken a look at a few lovely chickens and desired to touch and kiss them Apparently, for some people the urge is hard to resist. However, according to an updated warning by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) doing so could spread dangerous—maybe even life-treatening-Salmonella. So, no matter how irresistible those little feathered birds may seem, avoid giving them a kiss.
This isn’t the first time the CDC has warned against physically touching or kissing your poultry. Back in 2018 Halloween, they advised against dressing the birds up for fear of spreading Salmonella. Then again, in May this year, with 474 cases reported, another warning was issued. According to interviews with 271 of those affected, 77 percent had been in contact with poultry before getting sick.
“Backyard poultry, like chickens and ducks, can carry Salmonella bacteria even if they look healthy and clean,” writes the CDC. These bacteria can easily spread to anything in the areas where the poultry live. You can get sick from touching your poultry or anything in their environment and then touching your mouth or food, and swallowing Salmonella bacteria.
Most people who come into contact with the Salmonella bacteria will experience diarrhea (腹泻), fever, and stomach cramp. Children are particularly affected—one in three sick people are below the age of five, which is intelligible given their weaker immune systems and natural love for the birds.
The CDC recommends that parents shouldn't let little children touch chicks, ducks, or other backyard poultry and make sure that if they do, they should wash their hands thoroughly afterward. Likewise, adults are instructed to do the same after touching backyard poultry and their eggs should be cleaned, stored, and cooked correctly to avoid the infection of Salmonella.
This might be easier said than done—for many people, backyard chickens are beloved—but if you really love them, stop physical displays of affection in case you end up with Salmonella bacteria on your face. It turns out to be a bit of harm.
4. Why does CDC repeatedly warn people not to kiss chickens
A. To protect the poultry. B. To show love to chickens.
C. To get rid of Salmonella. D. To stay safe from potential danger.
5. How is paragraph 2 mainly developed
A. By giving examples. B. By showing statistics.
C. By making comparison. D. By interviewing victims.
6. What does the underlined word “intelligible” probably mean in paragraph 4
A. Understandable. B. Irresistible. C. Unavoidable. D. Controversial.
7. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph
A. Stress the importance of affection. B. Add more background information.
C. Provide some suggestions for the readers. D. Summarize the theme of the passage.
C
Recently I read an article written by Edan Lepucki and titled "Don't Play With Your Kids. Seriously." It makes a case for parents consciously withdrawing from their children ’s playtime until those children are able to play independently all the time.
According to Edan Lepucki, there are two main reasons. One is that it allows the child time and space to delve into wonderful imaginary worlds that he or she is not able to enter in quite the same way if a parent is present.
The second reason is that it gives parents a break. With everything else we do on a daily basis-feeding, cleaning, disciplining, educating, transporting, and more-it's simply too much to be expected to entertain our kids actively, as well. Lepucki describes a sense of exhaustion to which I can relate.
"The constant quarrelling was so exhausting that my husband and I didn't have the energy to play the way my son preferred. After I scolded him, I felt guilty and frustrated."
Adopting a no-play approach changed everything, improving both the relationship with her son and her own mental wellbeing, and it has done the same for me, with my own three children.
I have another reason for choosing this approach: It builds greater independence in children. Children play differently when adults are present. They tend to rely on adults to solve conflicts,whereas when they're on their own, they have no choice but to rise to the occasion and deal with any issue.
Lenore Skenazy, the author of "Free Range Kids", told me that when adults are present, kids act like kids, but when adults leave, kids become adults. She said, "If there's an adult there, they will take over. So adults need to step back."
Take this as your excuse to stop playing with your kids. Know that it' s perfectly OK to say no, to admit you need a break, and to encourage your children to play without you. Then sit back and observe the clever, imaginative little humans you've created at play. It's a most satisfying feeling.
8 What does the underlined part "delve into" in paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Develop. B. Change. C. Explore. D. Preserve.
9. How does Lepucki benefit from her parenting style
A. Her relaxing time is increased. B. She becomes more independent.
C. She makes more adult friends. D. Her physical health has improved.
10. Why is Lenore Skenazy mentioned
A. To prove kids' poor independence. B. To provide evidence for an opinion.
C. To show kids' changeable character. D. To explain parents' bad effect on kids.
11. Which can be the best title for the text
A. It Provides Us with Many Benefits to Play Alone
B. Parents Should Help Develop Kids' Independence
C. Refusal Can Create a Harmonious Family Atmosphere
D. It Won't Hurt Your Kids If You Stop Playing with Them
D
We’ve all been there-accidently distanced a new co-worker with a bad joke, or failed to impress the new boss with our first task. You might have been off your game because of a recent failure, but your new co-workers are likely to think that your poor performance is one of your basic characteristics. However, it’s not impossible to change how others view you.
Your co-workers may have built up a certain impression of you-that you’re not leadership material because you’re too quiet, for example. You can’t expect to overturn that thinking with small actions. You need to do something unexpected. If you’ve made them think you’re quiet and never speak up, it won’t be enough to talk once in a meeting. Instead, make a point of being the first person to speak. If your co-workers have to ask themselves, “What got into him ” then you’re on the way to beginning to change their views.
My first impression of Matthew, an employee of mine, was that he was a bit lazy at work. Realizing that I was increasingly unimpressed with him, he made a move. He suggested that we get to know each other better by going to a rock climbing gym-an activity at which he was very experienced, and I was a beginner. His great skills showed me a different side to his abilities.
Sometimes the bad impression your co-workers may have formed has nothing to do with you. Ten years ago, I met a woman at a meeting. Today, we’re close friends. But, she said that she hadn’t liked me at first. She thought I seemed “too positive”-and therefore somewhat fake. It was only after knowing me for years that she realized that was in fact how I was. If you’re patient and continue to act in ways you’re proud of, most people will finally come around.
It’s unfair when we feel misunderstood. But while first impressions are likely to stick, they can-with time and effort-be changed, so that your true talents can be appreciated.
12. What does the underlined phrase “off your game” in the first paragraph probably mean
A. Beaten in a sport. B. Lost in your computer game.
C Unwilling to accept a new friend. D. Unable to work as well as usual.
13. How can we change others’ impressions of us according to paragraph 2
A. By surprising them. B. By keeping quiet.
C. By questioning them. D. By organizing meetings.
14. Why did Matthew ask the author to go rock climbing with him
A. To explore new job chances.
B. To show off his climbing skills.
C. To get the author to know him better.
D. To push the author to exercise more.
15. What did the woman think of the author at first
A. Brave. B. Insincere. C. Friendly. D. Impatient.

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Going to the zoo is an all-time favorite activity for children and families. ____16____ In order to make a decision,we must consider the arguments for and against keeping wild animals in zoos.
One benefit of zoos is that they are useful for educating people about animals. We can observe animals at close range and learn more about them than we can from books and the TV. It also provides an opportunity to promote the conservation of endangered species. ____17____ This helps them to come up with better ways of protecting animals from harm in their natural habitat.
On the other hand, keeping animals in zoos is similar to a prison sentence. Many zoos do not have large enough enclosures to keep animals comfortable. The animals have limited freedom to move about. We often see even the fierce lions lying passively in their enclosures just waiting for their next meal to be served. They suffer from stress and boredom.____18____
Another thing we need to consider is the cost of maintaining a zoo. A lot of funds are needed to run a zoo. Money is needed to stock the zoo with all kinds of animals. ____19____ The animals need food and medical care. Special spaces need to be built to house each type of animals. More staff are needed to clean and maintain the zoo grounds.
____20____ If you want to see animals, I advise you to go on a safari. For conservation and research, set up sanctuaries like the Sepilok orangutan sanctuary in Sabah. It is kinder to leave the animals in their natural home-the wild.
A. This in turn causes animals to live shorter lives.
B. We have also heard about animals being mistreated.
C. However, some people argue against keeping wild animals in zoos.
D. They have to carry out research on the survival rate of this species.
E. Staff must be hired and trained to take care of each species of animals.
F. In addition, zoos allow scientists to study animal behavior more easily.
G. In conclusion, it is cruel and selfish to keep animals in an unnatural prison.

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。
I was in my room, unwilling to head to the community theatre with “my brother” Henry. He was just adopted by my parents recently. I was not in the mood for being onstage with him.
“Kristie, come here,” my mom called. Following her voice, I found her outside the bathroom, holding a wet book. She gave the book a shake. “Henry’s book was in the bathtub. Did you put it there ” She glared at me—something she never did before Henry came to our home. I didn’t wet his book on purpose. Tears of hurt clouded my eyes. Worse still, she promised to buy him a new copy. My heart ached. Henry was stealing my mother’s love. He was ruining my life.
Meanwhile, Henry was just nearby, absorbed in working on a complicated rope knot (绳结) as usual. Why did a boy like him do the girly work Far from manly!
Soon, it was time to have to set off for the community theatre. As Henry walked ahead of us to the car, my mom took me aside and said in a low voice, “It’s the first time for Henry to be onstage. Be kind to him, Honey.” I nodded but sighed. Being kind didn’t use to be hard. But after Henry moved in, everything felt different. The theatre used to be a special place for my parents and me. With Henry involved, it didn’t seem so special any more.
Finally, it was our stage time. My heart beat wildly. I forgot my annoyance at Henry for a while. As we kids lined up, ready to act out our short play, I realized how loosely I had tied the drawstring (束带) on my skirt. Sure enough, my skirt began to drop. Laughter from the audience could be heard, and even though I was wearing shorts under my skirt, I could feel my face burst into flames. However, my hands were full. If only someone could help me out!
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。
Right then, Henry sensed my embarrassment.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After the performance, I found Henry and tapped him on the arm gratefully.

Have you ever taken a look at a few lovely chickens and desired to touch and kiss them Apparently, for some people the urge is hard to resist. However, according to an updated warning by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) doing so could spread dangerous—maybe even life-treatening-Salmonella. So, no matter how irresistible those little feathered birds may seem, avoid giving them a kiss.
This isn’t the first time the CDC has warned against physically touching or kissing your poultry. Back in 2018 Halloween, they advised against dressing the birds up for fear of spreading Salmonella. Then again, in May this year, with 474 cases reported, another warning was issued. According to interviews with 271 of those affected, 77 percent had been in contact with poultry before getting sick.
“Backyard poultry, like chickens and ducks, can carry Salmonella bacteria even if they look healthy and clean,” writes the CDC. These bacteria can easily spread to anything in the areas where the poultry live. You can get sick from touching your poultry or anything in their environment and then touching your mouth or food, and swallowing Salmonella bacteria.
Most people who come into contact with the Salmonella bacteria will experience diarrhea (腹泻), fever, and stomach cramp. Children are particularly affected—one in three sick people are below the age of five, which is intelligible given their weaker immune systems and natural love for the birds.
The CDC recommends that parents shouldn't let little children touch chicks, ducks, or other backyard poultry and make sure that if they do, they should wash their hands thoroughly afterward. Likewise, adults are instructed to do the same after touching backyard poultry and their eggs should be cleaned, stored, and cooked correctly to avoid the infection of Salmonella.
This might be easier said than done—for many people, backyard chickens are beloved—but if you really love them, stop physical displays of affection in case you end up with Salmonella bacteria on your face. It turns out to be a bit of harm.
4. Why does CDC repeatedly warn people not to kiss chickens
A. To protect the poultry. B. To show love to chickens.
C. To get rid of Salmonella. D. To stay safe from potential danger.
5. How is paragraph 2 mainly developed
A. By giving examples. B. By showing statistics.
C. By making comparison. D. By interviewing victims.
6. What does the underlined word “intelligible” probably mean in paragraph 4

7. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph
A. Stress the importance of affection. B. Add more background information.
C. Provide some suggestions for the readers. D. Summarize the theme of the passage.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. A 7. D

According to interviews with 271 of those affected, 77 percent had been in contact with poultry before getting sick.(然而,在今年5月,报告了474个病例后,又发出了另一个警告。根据对271名患者的采访,77% 的人在生病之前曾与家禽有过接触)”可知,该段主要是通过举例的方式展开的,分别列举了2018年万圣节和今年5月的事例。故选A。
【6题详解】

C
Recently I read an article written by Edan Lepucki and titled "Don't Play With Your Kids. Seriously." It makes a case for parents consciously withdrawing from their children ’s playtime until those children are able to play independently all the time.
According to Edan Lepucki, there are two main reasons. One is that it allows the child time and space to delve into wonderful imaginary worlds that he or she is not able to enter in quite the same way if a parent is present.
The second reason is that it gives parents a break. With everything else we do on a daily basis-feeding, cleaning, disciplining, educating, transporting, and more-it's simply too much to be expected to entertain our kids actively, as well. Lepucki describes a sense of exhaustion to which I can relate.
"The constant quarrelling was so exhausting that my husband and I didn't have the energy to play the way my son preferred. After I scolded him, I felt guilty and frustrated."
Adopting a no-play approach changed everything, improving both the relationship with her son and her own mental wellbeing, and it has done the same for me, with my own three children.
I have another reason for choosing this approach: It builds greater independence in children. Children play differently when adults are present. They tend to rely on adults to solve conflicts,whereas when they're on their own, they have no choice but to rise to the occasion and deal with any issue.
Lenore Skenazy, the author of "Free Range Kids", told me that when adults are present, kids act like kids, but when adults leave, kids become adults. She said, "If there's an adult there, they will take over. So adults need to step back."
Take this as your excuse to stop playing with your kids. Know that it' s perfectly OK to say no, to admit you need a break, and to encourage your children to play without you. Then sit back and observe the clever, imaginative little humans you've created at play. It's a most satisfying feeling.
8. What does the underlined part "delve into" in paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Develop. B. Change. C. Explore. D. Preserve.
9. How does Lepucki benefit from her parenting style
A. Her relaxing time is increased. B. She becomes more independent.
C. She makes more adult friends. D. Her physical health has improved.
10. Why is Lenore Skenazy mentioned
A. To prove kids' poor independence. B. To provide evidence for an opinion.
C. To show kids' changeable character. D. To explain parents' bad effect on kids.
11. Which can be the best title for the text
A. It Provides Us with Many Benefits to Play Alone
B. Parents Should Help Develop Kids' Independence
C. Refusal Can Create a Harmonious Family Atmosphere
D. It Won't Hurt Your Kids If You Stop Playing with Them
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【分析】本文为一篇议论文,表达了父母应放手让孩子独立玩耍的观点,并说明了其中的好处。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第二段关键句“One is that it allows the child time and space to delve into wonderful imaginary worlds that he or she is not able to enter in quite the same way if a parent is present.”(一是它让孩子有时间和空间去___奇妙的想象世界,如果父母在场,他们是无法以完全相同的方式进入这个世界的。)可知,由enter “进入”可知,delve into表示“探索”。故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段关键句“The second reason is that it gives parents a break.”(第二个原因是它给了父母一个喘息的机会。)及第五段关键句“Adopting a no-play approach changed everything, improving both the relationship with her son and her own mental wellbeing, and it has done the same for me, with my own three children.”(采取玩耍不干预的方式改变了一切,改善了她和儿子的关系,也改善了她自己的心理健康,对我来说也是如此,对我自己的三个孩子也是如此。)可知,Lepucki在使用自己的教育方式后,放松时间增加了。故选A项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第三段第一句“I have another reason for choosing this approach: It builds greater independence in children. ”(我选择这种方法还有另一个原因:它能让孩子更独立。)并结合本段内容和下一段关键句“Lenore Skenazy, the author of "Free Range Kids", told me that when adults are present, kids act like kids, but when adults leave, kids become adults.”(《放养孩子》的作者Lenore Skenazy告诉我,当成年人在场时,孩子表现得像孩子,但当成年人离开时,孩子就变成了成年人。)可知,作者引用《放养孩子》的作者Lenore Skenazy的话是为了给她的观点提供论据。故选B项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段关键句“It makes a case for parents consciously withdrawing from their children ’s playtime until those children are able to play independently all the time.”(它证明了父母有意识地从孩子的玩耍时间中抽身出来,直到孩子能够一直独立玩耍是有必要的。)及文章最后一段内容可知,作者在本文表达了父母不应经常与孩子一起玩耍,应让他们自己玩耍的观点,与“It Won't Hurt Your Kids If You Stop Playing with Them”(如果你不再和你的孩子玩耍,他们不会受到伤害 )观点一致。故选D项。
D
We’ve all been there-accidently distanced a new co-worker with a bad joke, or failed to impress the new boss with our first task. You might have been off your game because of a recent failure, but your new co-workers are likely to think that your poor performance is one of your basic characteristics. However, it’s not impossible to change how others view you.
Your co-workers may have built up a certain impression of you-that you’re not leadership material because you’re too quiet, for example. You can’t expect to overturn that thinking with small actions. You need to do something unexpected. If you’ve made them think you’re quiet and never speak up, it won’t be enough to talk once in a meeting. Instead, make a point of being the first person to speak. If your co-workers have to ask themselves, “What got into him ” then you’re on the way to beginning to change their views.
My first impression of Matthew, an employee of mine, was that he was a bit lazy at work. Realizing that I was increasingly unimpressed with him, he made a move. He suggested that we get to know each other better by going to a rock climbing gym-an activity at which he was very experienced, and I was a beginner. His great skills showed me a different side to his abilities.
Sometimes the bad impression your co-workers may have formed has nothing to do with you. Ten years ago, I met a woman at a meeting. Today, we’re close friends. But, she said that she hadn’t liked me at first. She thought I seemed “too positive”-and therefore somewhat fake. It was only after knowing me for years that she realized that was in fact how I was. If you’re patient and continue to act in ways you’re proud of, most people will finally come around.
It’s unfair when we feel misunderstood. But while first impressions are likely to stick, they can-with time and effort-be changed, so that your true talents can be appreciated.
12. What does the underlined phrase “off your game” in the first paragraph probably mean
A. Beaten in a sport. B. Lost in your computer game.
C. Unwilling to accept a new friend. D. Unable to work as well as usual.
13. How can we change others’ impressions of us according to paragraph 2
A. By surprising them. B. By keeping quiet.
C. By questioning them. D. By organizing meetings.
14. Why did Matthew ask the author to go rock climbing with him
A. To explore new job chances.
B. To show off his climbing skills.
C. To get the author to know him better.
D. To push the author to exercise more.
15. What did the woman think of the author at first
A. Brave. B. Insincere. C. Friendly. D. Impatient.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文,作者结合自己的经历谈了改变第一印象的几个方法。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。由后面的“because of a recent failure”(因为最近的一次失败)可知,本句是说“你可能因为最近的一次失败而没有发挥好”,因此划线词的意思是“表现不佳,即不如之前的工作表现好”,即unable to work as well as usual,故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“You need to do something unexpected. If you’ve made them think you’re quiet and never speak up, it won’t be enough to talk once in a meeting. Instead, make a point of being the first person to speak”(你需要做一些意想不到的事情。如果你让他们觉得你很安静,从来不说话,那么在会议上说一次是不够的。相反,要强调自己是第一个说话的人)可知,我们可以通过令他们惊讶来改变别人对我们的印象,故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“He suggested that we get to know each other better by going to a rock climbing gym-an activity at which he was very experienced, and I was a beginner”(他建议我们去攀岩馆更好地了解对方——这是一项他很有经验的活动,而我是初学者)可知,马修请作者和他一起去攀岩为了让作者更好地了解他,故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“But, she said that she hadn’t liked me at first. She thought I seemed “too positive”-and therefore somewhat fake”(但是,她说她一开始并不喜欢我。她认为我似乎“过于乐观”——因此有点假)可推知,这位妇女起初认为作者不真诚,故选B。

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Going to the zoo is an all-time favorite activity for children and families. ____16____ In order to make a decision,we must consider the arguments for and against keeping wild animals in zoos.
One benefit of zoos is that they are useful for educating people about animals. We can observe animals at close range and learn more about them than we can from books and the TV. It also provides an opportunity to promote the conservation of endangered species. ____17____ This helps them to come up with better ways of protecting animals from harm in their natural habitat.
On the other hand, keeping animals in zoos is similar to a prison sentence. Many zoos do not have large enough enclosures to keep animals comfortable. The animals have limited freedom to move about. We often see even the fierce lions lying passively in their enclosures just waiting for their next meal to be served. They suffer from stress and boredom.____18____
Another thing we need to consider is the cost of maintaining a zoo. A lot of funds are needed to run a zoo. Money is needed to stock the zoo with all kinds of animals. ____19____ The animals need food and medical care. Special spaces need to be built to house each type of animals. More staff are needed to clean and maintain the zoo grounds.
____20____ If you want to see animals, I advise you to go on a safari. For conservation and research, set up sanctuaries like the Sepilok orangutan sanctuary in Sabah. It is kinder to leave the animals in their natural home-the wild.
A. This in turn causes animals to live shorter lives.
B. We have also heard about animals being mistreated.
C. However, some people argue against keeping wild animals in zoos.
D. They have to carry out research on the survival rate of this species.
E. Staff must be hired and trained to take care of each species of animals.
F. In addition, zoos allow scientists to study animal behavior more easily.
G. In conclusion, it is cruel and selfish to keep animals in an unnatural prison.
【答案】16. C 17. F 18. A 19. E 20. G
【解析】
【分析】本文是议论文。文章讨论了动物被养在动物园里的优点和缺点,最后作者表明自己的态度:动物还是在野外比较好。
【16题详解】
前一句“Going to the zoo is an all-time favorite activity for children and families.(去动物园是儿童和家庭最喜欢的活动)”指出孩子们很喜欢去动物园,也即对动物园的支持,后一句“In order to make a decision,we must consider the arguments for and against keeping wild animals in zoos.(为了做出决定,我们必须考虑支持还是反对在动物园里饲养野生动物的观点)”说要考虑对动物园的支持和反对两种观点,因此中间一句必定要转折引出反对者,对应C项“然而有人反对把野生动物关在动物园”,故选C项。
【17题详解】
空前“One benefit of zoos is that they are useful for educating people about animals. We can observe animals at close range and learn more about them than we can from books and the TV. It also provides an opportunity to promote the conservation of endangered species.(动物园的一个好处是,它们对教育人们关于动物是有用的。我们可以近距离观察动物,比从书籍和电视上更多地了解它们。它也为促进濒危物种的保护提供了机会。)”提出了两点动物在动物园里的的好处,因此空格处应该也是阐述好处,in addition (另外)是提出论点时常用的连词,而scientists对应them,“study animal behavior”对应this,对应F项“此外,动物园让科学家更方便地研究动物的行为”,故选F。
【18题详解】
根据下文“On the other hand, keeping animals in zoos is similar to a prison sentence. Many zoos do not have large enough enclosures to keep animals comfortable. The animals have limited freedom to move about. We often see even the fierce lions lying passively in their enclosures just waiting for their next meal to be served. They suffer from stress and boredom.( 另一方面,在动物园里饲养动物类似于监禁。许多动物园没有足够大的围栏来保持动物舒适。这些动物四处走动的自由很有限。我们经常看到凶猛的狮子也被动地躺在它们的围栏里等待下一顿饭。他们遭受压力和无聊)”可知,第三段讲述动物园的坏处,第一句指出动物园像"监狱”中,空格前一句说动物忍受着压力和无聊。A项“这反过来导致动物短命”承接上文,故选A。
【19题详解】
上文“A lot of funds are needed to run a zoo. Money is needed to stock the zoo with all kinds of animals.(经营一个动物园需要很多资金。在动物园里饲养各种动物都需要钱。)”可知,本段指出经营动物园成本巨大,除第一句外,整体都是使用被动语态,具体指出需要的成本包括哪些,并且最后一句“More staff are needed to clean and maintain the zoo grounds.( 需要更多的工作人员来清洁和维护动物园的场地。)”中的more staff提示前面已经提到过staff,对应E项“需要雇佣并训练员工去照顾不同的动物”,故选E。
【20题详解】
空格位于文章最后一段第一句,是对全文进行总结,而根据后文“If you want to see animals, I advise you to go on a safari. For conservation and research, set up sanctuaries like the Sepilok orangutan sanctuary in Sabah. It is kinder to leave the animals in their natural home-the wild.( 如果你想看动物,我建议你去狩猎。为了保护和研究,在萨巴建立了像塞皮洛克猩猩保护区这样的保护区。把动物留在它们的自然家园——野外更好)”可知,作者是不支持动物园的,对应G项“总之,把动物关在非自然的监狱里既残忍又自私”,故选G。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了河南电视台在社交媒体平台新浪微博上分享视频《洛河女神》并引起强烈反响。
【36题详解】
考查冠词。句意:这个古老的浪漫故事被赋予了一个新的背景,仍然为现代观众提供了有吸引力的观赏体验。可数名词setting在句中表示“一个新的背景”,泛指,空格后单词new发音以辅音音素开头,用不定冠词a修饰。故填a。
【37题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:这个故事似乎是以慢动作呈现的。分析句子可知,“ seems like slow motion”是宾语从句,从句缺少主语,表示“看起来像慢动作的方式”,用连接代词what引导该宾语从句。故填what。
【38题详解】
考查副词。句意:不出所料,这段视频大受欢迎,点击量超过2000万次。提示词作评注性状语,修饰整个句子,用副词surprisingly,意为“出人意料地”。故填surprisingly。
【39题详解】
考查名词。句意:洛河女神的故事一直是无数当代艺术家的灵感来源,他们通过各种艺术形式,如电影和舞剧,描绘了这位无与伦比的美丽女神。提示词作表语,用名词inspiration,意为“灵感”,不可数名词。故填inspiration。
【40题详解】
考查形容词。句意:洛河女神的故事一直是无数当代艺术家的灵感来源,他们通过各种艺术形式,如电影和舞剧,描绘了这位无与伦比的美丽女神。提示词作定语,用形容词various修饰名词art forms,意为“各种各样的”。故填various。
【41题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:但这段时长约两分钟、名为《洛河女神狂想曲》的视频之所以能给人留下如此深刻的印象,并引发如此大的反响,是因为它是在水下拍摄的。分析句子可知,空格处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词the video,指物,关系词代替先行词在定语从句中作主语,应使用关系代词which引导该定语从句。故填which。
【42题详解】
考查时态语态和主谓一致。句意:但这段时长约两分钟、名为《洛河女神狂想曲》的视频之所以能给人留下如此深刻的印象,并引发如此大的反响,是因为它是在水下拍摄的。分析句子可知,shoot(拍摄)是表语从句中谓语动词,与主语it(即the video)之间是被动关系,结合句意可知,拍摄已经完成,应使用一般过去时态,又因主语是第三人称单数代词,所以谓语动词也应使用单数形式。综上,谓语应用一般过去时的被动语态,单数形式。故填was shot。
【43题详解】
考查代词。句意:她不仅掌握了自己的艺术,还掌握了在肺部努力发挥功能时屏住呼吸的技巧。提示词作定语,修饰名词function,用形容词性物主代词their。故填their。
【44题详解】
考查介词。句意:这一切都是带着最平和的面部表情完成的。根据句意,表示“带着,用”,应用介词with。故填with。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这并不是河南电视台第一次因其突出中国传统文化的视频而受到关注。分析句子可知,highlight(突出)作后置定语修饰名词videos,是非谓语动词,与其逻辑主语videos之间是主动关系,应用现在分词表示主动。故填highlighting。

I think I am qualified for this job, because I have learned Chinese paintings since my childhood. In addition, I am fluent in both Chinese and English, which contributes to introducing Chinese paintings.

第二节(满分25分)
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。
I was in my room, unwilling to head to the community theatre with “my brother” Henry. He was just adopted by my parents recently. I was not in the mood for being onstage with him.
“Kristie, come here,” my mom called. Following her voice, I found her outside the bathroom, holding a wet book. She gave the book a shake. “Henry’s book was in the bathtub. Did you put it there ” She glared at me—something she never did before Henry came to our home. I didn’t wet his book on purpose. Tears of hurt clouded my eyes. Worse still, she promised to buy him a new copy. My heart ached. Henry was stealing my mother’s love. He was ruining my life.
Meanwhile, Henry was just nearby, absorbed in working on a complicated rope knot (绳结) as usual. Why did a boy like him do the girly work Far from manly!
Soon, it was time to have to set off for the community theatre. As Henry walked ahead of us to the car, my mom took me aside and said in a low voice, “It’s the first time for Henry to be onstage. Be kind to him, Honey.” I nodded but sighed. Being kind didn’t use to be hard. But after Henry moved in, everything felt different. The theatre used to be a special place for my parents and me. With Henry involved, it didn’t seem so special any more.
Finally, it was our stage time. My heart beat wildly. I forgot my annoyance at Henry for a while. As we kids lined up, ready to act out our short play, I realized how loosely I had tied the drawstring (束带) on my skirt. Sure enough, my skirt began to drop. Laughter from the audience could be heard, and even though I was wearing shorts under my skirt, I could feel my face burst into flames. However, my hands were full. If only someone could help me out!
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。
Right then, Henry sensed my embarrassment.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After the performance, I found Henry and tapped him on the arm gratefully.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Right then, Henry sensed my embarrassment. He immediately came to my aid. He pulled up my skirt and skillfully tied the drawstring with a beautiful knot. Seeing what Henry did for me, something deep in my mind began to change. It seemed as if my cold heart began to melt slowly and my annoyance at him gradually gave way to guilt. I regretted having treated him as a stranger. While my mind was wandering, our performance time came. It turned out a great success, thunderous applause filling the whole theatre.
After the performance, I found Henry and tapped him on the arm gratefully. “Thanks,” I said with a grateful smile on my face. I had to admit that but for his timely help, I would have been extremely embarrassed. Without his knotting skill, the performance would have been quite different. “KNOT a problem. You are my sister,” he grinned innocently, saying humorously. Surrounded by the cheerful atmosphere, I felt a flood of warmth of a big family. Maybe it wouldn’t be so bad to have a new person in my corner of the world after all.
