阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Family vacations can supply lifelong memories, so it’s important to travel to the perfect place. Here are four popular destinations (目的地) in the US that will satisfy your family.
Orlando
Orlando hosts a handful of theme parks that are sure to excite youths, including Universal Orlando Resort, where you’ll find The Wizarding World of Harry Potter, and Discovery Cove, a resort (旅游胜地) where you can swim with dolphins around the park’s coral reef.
Anaheim-Disneyland
Home to Disneyland Resort since 1955, Anaheim, California, has enough magical attractions to keep families entertained. After catching up with Mickey and friends, visit Anaheim’s Adventure City amusement park. And if you’re in town during baseball season, you can catch a game at Angel Stadium. Note that Disneyland is busy year-round, but if you visit on a weekday, you’ll likely encounter fewer people.
Wisconsin Dells
Known as “The Water Park Capital of the World,” Wisconsin Dells makes for a great family vacation spot with plenty of things to do. Take your pick of splash-filled venues from Noah’s Ark Waterpark to Kalahari Resorts. When you need a break on dry land, head to a magic show at Rick Wilcox Magic Theater or admire animals like giraffes and tigers at Timbavati Wildlife Park. Because of this destination’s popularity, you’d better avoid the weekends.
Grand Canyon National Park
With so much to see and do here, there’s no chance anyone in your family will be bored in this park. Enjoy one of the park’s many light hikes, admire the view from the Grand Canyon Skywalk, raft the Colorado River or go for a ride on the Grand Canyon Railway. The Grand Canyon is pretty budget-friendly considering its low ticket prices, but know that nearby hotels book up quickly in summer.
21. What can visitors do in Orlando
A. Meet Harry Potter. B. Admire tigers.
C. Watch baseball games. D. Swim with dolphins.
22. What do Anaheim-Disneyland and Wisconsin Dells have in common
A. Their ticket prices are low. B. There are magic shows.
C. They’re crowded on weekends. D. They’re home to some theme parks.
23. In which section of a newspaper can the text be found
A. Environment. B. Travel.
C. Culture. D. Business.
B
Whenever I think of Ms. Anita Moore, I always smile and feel fortunate to have her as my teacher. All of her students knew she loved being a teacher. Her classroom was always a safe place where we were encouraged to share, think, and express ourselves.
One of the memories that always stuck with me was a reading class when Ms. Moore read a story aloud and started to cry. The main character in the story reminded her of her grandmother. She paused to share about her relationship with her grandmother and made the connection as to how that relationship helped understand the story.
Ms. Moore tried her best to make a connection with each student in her classroom. She knew what we liked and used that information to bring our interests into the classroom. That is one of the reasons why Ms. Moore will always be my favorite teacher. She brought various types of books to our classroom and allowed us to take them home. It was she that helped my love for reading grow.
Ms. Moore also went beyond classroom instruction. She decided that our school should have a choir and that all of her students should audition (试演). Without her, I would never have taken part in this type of after-school activity. Once it was time for the annual 5th grade weekend camping trip, my parents refused to let me attend. Ms. Moore came to my home to persuade (说服) them. Although I was still not allowed to go, it was amazing to me that a teacher would visit my home to help me be part of a school tradition with my classmates.
Ms. Moore was a wonderful example of a caring teacher. From her, I’ve learned to make connections with students and look for ways to help them learn and feel successful.
24. Why did Ms. Moore cry in the reading class
A. The story was too sad.
B. She was moved by the students.
C. She thought of her own grandmother.
D. She helped her students understand the story.
25. What can we learn about Ms. Moore from Paragraph 3
A. She was good at writing books.
B. She inspired the writer’s love for reading.
C. She donated many books to poor students.
D. She was the favorite teacher of the whole class.
26. Which of the following words best describe Ms. Moore
A. Responsible and caring. B. Positive and independent.
C. Inspiring and strict. D. Knowledgeable and confident.
27. What is the author’s purpose of writing this passage
A. To express opinions on teaching literature.
B. To discuss how to become a caring teacher.
C. To introduce the classes and activities in her school.
D. To share her memory about her teacher, Ms. Anita Moore.
C
You don’t get a second chance to make a first impression — this was the theme of this year’s International Public Speaking Competition (IPSC), held in London from May 11 to 12. Thirty-three young speakers aged 16 to 20 from around the world gathered at The English Speaking Union to tell their stories, including Wu Dongxu, 19, a student from China. To him, the event wasn’t just about giving a speech on first impressions. It also made a strong impression on him.
“Rather than a competition, the experience was more like an inspiring research trip to me, a trip that allowed me to see firsthand the differences and similarities between Chinese and foreign cultures,” said Wu.
Apart from the obvious differences in food, transportation and climate, what impressed Wu most was the different styles of Chinese and foreign public speaking.
Although still a teen, Wu is no stranger to the public speaking podium (讲台). He has participated in many speaking competitions since 2017. But on the stage of the IPSC, speakers had no podium to stand behind. They just had to face the audience.
“This was the first time that I gave a speech without a podium, which made me realize how important eye contact and body language are,” said Wu. “It also gave me more freedom to convey more information with my body language instead of just with words.”
Another difference that caught Wu’s attention was the evaluation criteria (评价标准). According to him, in every speaking competition he had participated in in China, things like pronunciation, fluency and quality of language are always important. But to his surprise, in the IPSC accents and grammatical mistakes are not considered in the evaluation process. It is the story itself that matters most.
“Audiences are eager to hear powerful stories, no matter where they are from. That’s because the emotions expressed in them are shared by all human beings although there are the cultural differences.” said Wu. “Diversity, respect, tolerance and understanding — these are what the IPSC really wants to stress and spread.”
28. What is the topic of this year’s IPSC
A. Cultural difference. B. First impression.
C. Body language. D. English education.
29. What left Wu Dongxu the deepest impression
A. The food culture. B. The transportation means.
C. The climate. D. The public speaking style.
30. What can we learn about the IPSC
A. Speakers are allowed to use podiums.
B. Body language plays an important part.
C. Pronunciation and fluency matter a lot.
D. Language quality is considered the most important.
31. What is Wu Dongxu’s attitude towards the IPSC
A. Positive. B. Doubtful. C. Objective. D. Opposed.
D
It has long been known that plants communicate when they are stressed. You need only observe a houseplant to realize that a plant wilts (枯萎) when it needs water. Some plants may also emit a terrible taste to prevent some insects from hurting them.
Now, a new study that was conducted by researchers at Tel Aviv University, shows that not only do plants express themselves in the above ways when stressed, they also make sounds, like talking.
According to the researchers, plants make sounds at frequencies (频率) between 40 to 80 KHZ — out of the range of human ears — but within the range of some animals. “Bats make sounds in these ranges all the time, and mice, dogs and cats can partially hear within it,” Dr. Lilach Hadany, a Professor at Tel Aviv University, and one of the authors of the study said.
One of the primary breakthroughs (突破) of Hadany’s study is that the researchers have managed to understand and classify the sounds that plants make for the first time. Plants that are not stressed make about one noise per hour, but plants that are stressed or injured make many hundreds of sounds per hour. And each of these sounds seemed to be specific to the type of stress the plant was under.
This type of information could be important for agriculture. Knowing what sounds their plants are making could help farmers determine whether their crops are in danger of drought or disease and allow them to make the necessary changes to help their plants.
Amazingly enough, the researchers are not actually sure how the plants make sounds. But anyway, the discovery is still a game-changer for plant science, and potentially for the future of agriculture. One day soon your plants may be able to tell you if they are hungry, thirsty, or just feeling lonely.
32. What does the underlined word “emit” in Paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Give off. B. Add to.
C. Clear up. D. Take in.
33. Which of the following is most likely to hear plants talk
A. Humans. B. Bats.
C. Mice. D. Dogs.
34. What is the breakthrough of Hadany’s study
A. They’ve found plants can communicate with each other.
B. They’ve used plants’ sounds to improve agriculture.
C. They can understand and classify plants’ sounds.
D. They’ve discovered how plants make sounds.
35. What can be a best title for the text
A. Scientists Discover the Language of Plants
B. Animals Understand Plants’ Language
C. Plants Communicate in Various Ways
D. Stress Makes Plants Talk

Helping others is an important part of life. 36 . If you want to help others more but aren’t sure where to start, here are some tips that may help you.
37 .
The easiest way to know how you can help others is simply to ask them. Talk to a family member or friend, ask them what they most need help with, and offer your services. Then, follow through and try your best to do what they’ve asked of you. Remember actions always speak louder than words!
Be proactive (积极主动的).
Look for opportunities to help and lend a hand without being asked. 38 . For example, you can call your elderly grandpa to check in, bring your friend dinner while they’re sick or just hold the elevator door for a neighbor. Don’t wait for someone to ask for help — train yourself to think about all the different ways you can help people. Focus on being as friendly as possible, and you’ll get the hang of it!
Be a nonjudgmental (无偏见的) listener.
Sometimes, listening is more helpful and healing than practical assistance. Not everybody is looking for hands-on help or a solution to their problems. 39 . When someone is telling you about a hardship they’re going through, listen actively and focus on understanding them rather than fixing their problems.
Send a thoughtful note.
40 . Take time to send your loved ones notes or handwritten cards. When people feel isolated or cut off from their friends, even a small gesture can help them feel more connected and make their day brighter.
A. Ask people how you can help them
B. Think about what people may want
C. It gives you a sense of purpose and happiness
D. In fact, there are many small things you can do
E. Instead, sometimes they just need a supportive listener
F. It’s better to listen to them and give reasonable advice
G. You can help just by letting people know that you care

第四部分 任务型阅读(共两节,满分20分)
I remember the first time I met Roy. He was standing in the center of a group of boys, and he was telling a joke. He was really a popular boy. My name is Daniel. I was the new boy in the class. My father had been offered a job in London, so our whole family moved here. I was twelve and, having lost all my old friends, I felt uneasy and lonely at my new school.
There were 33 students in my new class, and most people weren’t very interested in a shy new boy. Roy was one of the few people who was kind to me. Roy and I became good friends. We relied on each other and we could talk about personal matters, things that were important to us.
Five years later, Roy and I are still in the same class. But just under a year ago, Roy’s father was knocked down by a car. He died a few days later. The family had to move to a much smaller house because they couldn’t afford the big house any more. Roy, who had always been very close to his father, changed completely, becoming silent and moody.
Last week our school had a big fair in order to raise money for a charity (慈善机构). It was very successful and by the end of the day, we had made about 500. Our class teacher, Mr White, came and chatted to a group of us that included Roy, and held up a box for us to see. “There’s 500 in here,” he said with a smile. But to our surprise, the next morning, we were told that the money had been stolen. Mr White had left the box in the classroom for a few minutes, and when he came back it had disappeared. The head teacher asked anyone who thought they might know something about it to come to him.
This weekend, I went to Roy’s home. Roy was out, and I went upstairs to his bedroom to wait for him. It was a cold day and his jacket was lying on the back of a chair. I put it on and put my hands in the pockets. I could feel a lot of paper notes and I pulled them out.
It looked as if there was about 500 there. I was so surprised that I just stood there, holding the notes in my hands.
At that moment, the door opened, and Roy walked in.

Dear Jerry,
I knew about your problem on the newspaper and I really relate to it. So I am writing to you just to offer my advice to you.
I can quite understand your father’s position. Of course if you join the student union, it will take much of your time and your academic performance may be affected. However, you can practice your abilities in many aspects, especially the ability of communicating and cooperating with others. So in my view, the key lies in you: can you manage the time properly If you are confident to handle it, you can have a talk with your father and list your reasons. And remember: be calm. I believe your father won’t stop you from becoming a well-rounded person.
I hope it will be of a little help for you.
Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua
