Dachi was the name of my pet cockatiel. His name comes from the second half of the Japanese word tomodachi, 1means friend.

I taught Dachi to whistle two songs, “For He’s A Jolly Good Fellow” and “Happy Birthday to You”. Though his whole range of skills was small, his 2 (confident) never lagged (滞后), and he would frequently wish me a happy birthday when it wasn’t — which could be 3 (embarrass).

When Dachi had been with us for three or four years, I think I may have become a bit too confident with him. One day, I didn’t realize that he was still sitting on my shoulder 4 until the door behind me shut loudly. He 5 (fly) away.

After I placed 6an advertisement in the local paper, I received a phone call from a woman. I was so relieved to hear this news that I 7 (immediate) drove to her house. When I arrived, she asked me to see whether the bird was 8(my).

I had a better idea 9 (identify) Dachi and began to whistle the “Happy Birthday” song. The lady stopped me, saying, “He is yours alright — he’s been whistling that all week.”

So Dachi came home in the car 10 (sit) on my shoulder, whistling.

【解析】

这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了我教给我的宠物小鹦鹉Dachi两首歌,有一天他不小心飞走了,一位女士发现了他并让我确认Dachi的身份,当我开始吹“生日快乐”这首歌时,那位女士相信他就是我的Dachi了。

1

考查非限定性定语从句关系词。句意:他的名字来自于日语单词tomodachi的后半部分,意思是朋友。从句是先行词的附加说明,去掉了也不会影响主句的意思,它与主句之间通常用逗号分开,故此句为非限定性定语从句。非限定性定语从句关系词只能用which,不能用that。故填which

2

考查名词。句意:虽然他的各种能力很小,他的信心从来没有落后。所填词作主语,前面又有人称代词his修饰,应用所给单词的名词形式,confident自信的,是形容词,名词形式是confidence(信心),故填confidence

3

考查形容词。句意:他会经常在不是我生日的时候祝我生日快乐——这可能是令人尴尬的。所填词在句子中作表语,用以说明主语的性质或特征,应用所给词的形容词形式embarrassing(令人尴尬的)。故填embarrassing

4

考查连词。句意:有一天,我不知道他还坐在我的肩膀上,直到门在我身后大声关上。not…until/till直到……才,为固定搭配,引导时间状语从句,故填until

5

考查时态。句意:他飞走了。根据前后句时态信息,本句应用一般过去时讲述过去的经历,动词fly的过去式是flew。故填flew

6

考查冠词。句意:我在当地报纸上登了一则广告后,接到一位女士的电话。advertisement广告,可数名词,此处表泛指,应用不定冠词修饰;又因其首字母音为元音音素,所以用an。故填an

7

考查副词。句意:听到这个消息我如释重负,立刻开车去了她家。此处修饰动词drove,应用所给词的副词形式作状语。immediate立刻的、即可的,是形容词,其副词形式是immediately。故填immediately

8

考查代词。句意:我到的时候,她问我这只鸟是不是我的。此处代指“my bird”, 应用名词性物主代词mine作表语。故填mine

9

考查动词不定式。句意:我有一个更好的主意来识别Dachi,并开始吹“生日快乐”的歌。名词idea后面通常用动词不定式作定语,表示来识别Dachi的主意。故填to identify

10

考查现在分词。句意:于是开车回家的路上Dachi坐在我肩上,吹着口哨。sit在句子中作伴随状语,主语Dachi与动词sit之间为逻辑上的主谓关系,所以用sit的现在分词形式.故填sitting

定语从句有限制性和非限制性两种。限制性定语从句先行词不可缺少的部分,去掉它主句意思往往不明确;非限制性定语从句是先行词的附加说明,去掉了也不会影响主句的意思,它与主句之间通常用逗号分开,将非限定性定语从句放在句子中间,其前后都需要用逗号隔开。

A funny thing happened to Arthur when he was on the way to work one day. As he walked along Park Avenue near the First National Bank, he heard the sound of someone trying to start a car. He tried again and again but couldn’t get the car moving. Arthur turned and looked inside at the face of a young man who looked worried. Arthur stopped and asked, “It looks like you’ve got a problem,” Arthur said.

I’m afraid so. I’m in a big hurry and I can’t start my car.”

“Is there something I can do to help?” Arthur asked. The young man looked at the two suitcases in the back seat and then said, “Thanks. If you’re sure it wouldn’t be too much trouble, you could help me get these suitcases into a taxi.”

“No trouble at all. I’d be glad to help.”

The young man got out and took one of the suitcases from the back seat. After placing it on the ground, he turned to get the other one. Just as Arthur picked up the first suitcase and started walking, he heard the long loud noise of an alarm.

It was from the bank. There had been a robbery!

Park Avenue had been quiet a moment before. Now the air was filled with the sound of the alarm and the shouts of people running from all directions. Cars stopped and the passengers joined the crowd in front of the bank. People asked each other, “What happened?” But everyone had a different answer.

Arthur, still carrying the suitcase, turned to look at the bank and walked right into the young woman in front of him.

She looked at the suitcase and then at him. Arthur was surprised. “Why is she looking at me like that?” He thought. “The suitcase! She thinks I’m the bank thief!”

Arthur looked around at the crowd of people. He became frightened, and without another thought, he started to run.

Para 1:

As he was running, Arthur heard the young man shouting behind, “Stop, stop!”

【题目】Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.

This is a story about a book that just kept selling, catching publishers, booksellers and even its author off guard. The book is Sapiens, by the Israeli academic Yuval Noah Harari, published in the UK in September 2014.It is a recondite(深奥的) work of evolutionary history charting the development of humankind through a scholarly examination of our ability to cooperate as a species.

Sapiens sold well on publication, particularly when it came out in paperback in the summer of 2015.What is remarkable about it, though, is that it's still selling in vast numbers. Sapiens has sold a further half million copies, establishing itself firmly at the top of the bestseller lists. The book's wild success is symptomatic of a broader trend in our book-buying habits: a surge in the popularity of intelligent, challenging nonfiction, often books that are several years old.

It was trade publication, the Booksellers, that first noted the rise of what is called the “brainy backlist”, it also highlighted a concomitant fall in the sales of the books that had been such a staple of publishers' catalogues-celebrity biographies. We are turning away from exciting but disposable stories of fame towards more serious, thoughtful, quiet books that help us understand our place in the world. Mark Richards, publisher at John Murray Prese, see the return to serious works of nonfiction as a response to the spirit of the age, “People have a hunger both for information and facts, and for nuanced(有细微差别的) exploration of issues, of a sort that books are in a prime position to provide.” he says.

In the end, the story of Sapiens is about a book becoming part of a national conversation. At a time when politics is more furious and fragmented than ever, when technology is colonizing our everyday existence.

【题目】 The World Health Organization(WHO)has the following advice to protect yourself from being infected with the coronavirus or other flu-like diseases.

1 Clean your hands often and carefully with an alcohol-based hand cleaner or wash them with soap and water. Washing your hands kills viruses that may be on your hands.

Keep social distancing. 2 When someone coughs or sneezes, he releases small drops of liquid from his mouth or nose which may contain the viruses. If you are too close, you can breathe in the liquid, including the COVID-19 virus if the person coughing has the disease.

Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth. Your hands touch many surfaces where viruses can survive up to nine days. Once contaminated(弄脏), hands can carry the viruses to your eyes, nose or mouth. 3

Promote respiratory hygiene(呼吸道卫生). Make sure that you cover your mouth and nose with your elbow or facial tissue when you cough or sneeze. 4

If you have a fever, a cough and difficulty breathing, seek medical care early. Stay home if you feel unwell, even with mild signs of infection such as headache and slight runny nose, until you recover. If you have a fever, a cough and difficulty breathing, seek medical attention, and follow the directions of your local health official. 5 This will also help to prevent possible spread of the coronavirus and other viruses.

A.Wash your hands frequently.

B.Then throw away the used tissue in a specially provided dustbin immediately.

C.If not, you are bound to be in a horrible condition.

D.Stay home and never participate in any social activities.

E.From there, the viruses can enter your body and can make you sick.

F.Stay at least one meter away from anyone who is coughing or sneezing.

G.Calling ahead will permit the health official to quickly direct you to the right health facility.

【题目】 Scientists in the U.S. have created an artificial sunflower less than 0. 04 inches wide that can bend towards a light source and harvest solar energy. The flowers were found to be about 400 percent more efficient than other equipment, making them promising technology for solar power potentially even as a power source for solar-based spaceships.

The team, led by researchers from the University of California, Los Angeles, was looking to improve. the efficiency of solar cells by modeling after a feature of nature-phototropism. This is where a plant adjusts itself to face the sun, getting the most amount of energy it can get. In a study published in Nature Nanotechnology, the team said it was a 'big challenge'.

However, this problem has now been overcome. The team has developed a polymer(聚合物) that is responsive to being simulated by light, The system, which they have named SunBOT for short, is able to instantly explore and track a light source. It can do this across a range of temperatures without power supply or any human intervention.

The researchers used the polymer to create a 'stem'. Then they placed a material commonly used in solar cells on its top, representing the 'flower'. When the team shone a light at the SunBOTs, the polymer began heating up and shrinking, causing the stem to bend so the flower faced the light.

The researchers tested their artificial sunflowers to see how efficient they were at harvesting solar energy Findings showed they were up to 400 percent more effective than non-phototrophic materials.

The practical applications of SunBOTs are some way off. The study shows a proof of concept, but the technology will need to be scaled up to be used commercially. However, the team is confident it could one day be used a across a broad range of industries.

This work may be useful for solar harvesters signal revere smart windows, self-contained robotics solar sails for spaceships and intelligent energy generation (for example, solar cells and biofuels), the scientific team said.

1Why do the scientists create the artificial sunflower?

A.To prevent pollution.B.To protect sunflowers.

C.To reuse green energy.D.To warn us of the energy crisis.

2What can we learn about SunBOTs?

A.SunBOTs are likely to be too limited in future use.

B.There is some time before SunBOTs are put into markets.

C.Scientists are still not sure of the function of SunBOTs.

D.SunBOTts are not efficient, though advanced, in collecting energy.

3Where can we read such a text?

A.In an education report.B.In a market report.

C.In an experiment report.D.In a science report.
