【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章作者告诉我们何为幸福。

1

考查连词。句意:幸福是一种快乐的状态,但并不意味着永远快乐。分析句子,前句提到“幸福是一种快乐的状态”后句却又说“并不意味着永远快乐”可知,此处表示前后转折。故填but

2

考查非谓语动词。句意:当我们感到被别人接受时,我们会变得快乐。分析句子,时间状语从句中已有动词feel,故提示词需用非谓语动词。accept或逻辑主语we之间表示被动。所以用过去分词表示被动。故填accepted

3

考查介词。句意:有些人在和宠物玩耍中找到真正的快乐。play with译为“与...…一起玩”,此处是固定短语,符合句意。故填with

【题目】 An abandoned car in Chicago worth about $600 has been issued more than $100, 000 in parking tickets (罚单) over the past three years. Now Jennifer Fitzgerald, 31, is stuck with the bill but says the 1999 Chevy Monte Carlo actually belongs to an ex-boyfriend who registered (登记注册) the car in her name without informing her.

The Expired Meter ( 停车计时器) reports that from May 23, 2009 to April 30, 2012, the Chicago Department of Finance (DOF) issued 678 tickets against the car, totaling $105, 761.80. It set a Chicago record both for the total number and amount of parking fines issued. In fact, it blew past the previous record holder, which was $65,000 from about 400 tickets.

But Fitzgerald says she doesn’t owe the city a dime (10 分硬币) and has filed a lawsuit (诉讼 ) in Cook County Circuit Court against the city of Chicago, United Airlines and the ex-boyfriend. Fitzgerald has two main arguments in her case. First, she says her ex-boyfriend, Brandon Preveau, is the actual owner of the car, having bought it from her uncle for $600 in 2008. In fact, Brandon paid for the car’s title (所有权), registration and insurance, but it was registered in Fitzgerald’s name. “Brandon used his 2007 income tax refund ( 退 ) to pay Patrick $600 for the car,” reads Fitzgerald’s complaint. “For reasons not recalled by Patrick, however, Patrick signed the title to the car over to Fitzgerald.”

Second, Fitzgerald’s lawyer is arguing that the city should have simply towed (拖走) the car after 30 days from O’Hare Airport, where it was parked and where Brandon worked at the time. According to Fitzgerald’s complaint, on or before November 17, 2009, Brandon drove the car into the parking lot and never drove it out again. And as the Expired Meter reports, Chicago law does state exactly that an abandoned vehicle is to be towed 30 days after being illegally parked.

1After the Chicago Department of Finance noticed the car, it _______.

A.wanted to break a record

B.tried its best to find its owner

C.kept issuing tickets against the car

D.decided to play a joke on its owner

2From Paragraph 3, we know that Jennifer Fitzgerald _______.

A.sold the car to her ex-boyfriend long ago

B.received the car from her ex-boyfriend

C.didn’t know anything about the car

D.wasn’t the real owner of the car

3Jennifer Fitzgerald filed a lawsuit against the city of Chicago because the city _______.

A.didn’t inform her as soon as it found the missing car

B.didn’t tow the vehicle after 30 days from O’Hare Airport

C.didn’t state exactly that an abandoned vehicle was to be towed

D.didn’t help her find the car when it was missing in the beginning

4After reading the passage we learn that Jennifer Fitzgerald _______.

A.doesn’t want to pay any money

B.thinks Patrick should pay the fines

C.isn’t trying to find her ex-boyfriend

D.has never been to O’Hare Airport

【题目】 The first Europeans came to America in 1492 with Christopher Columbus. Since that time people have come to America from all over the world, from Europe, Africa, and Asia, and they have brought their music with them. This mixing of people and music has created American music.

Music is a very important part of our lives. Music is for dancing, drinking, eating, loving and thinking. Some songs remind us of our childhood or youth. Others remind of the people we love. Many important occasions, like weddings and funerals have special music. Every nation has a national song like the American 'The Star-Spangled Banner. ' In the U.S, high schools and colleges have school songs too.

As the years pass, the music grows and changes.

Modern science has also changed music. Inventions like records, radios, movies, electric instruments, tape recorders, and videos have changed the way we play and listen to music. They have helped to make music an important form of international communication.

Even when people cannot understand the same language, they can share the same music.

【题目】 The promise of college in America is the promise of a clear path to the future, of a reward for all the sleep deprivation and soul-deadening competition of high school, and, most of all, of instant adulthood. As of April, 2020, however, none of that is happening due to the outbreak of the novel coronavirus(新型冠状病毒).

Saminah Haddad, a seventeen-year-old senior at Long Beach Polytechnic High School, wasn’t expecting her college offers until later in the spring. This year, there will be no spring season, which for Haddad means no four-year college. She is considering Long Beach City College, which is free for state residents. She also lost her job at an amusement park. All of the senior-year milestones that Haddad had been looking forward to have been cancelled: prom, graduation, and an event called the “Pursuit of Excellence Awards,” where she would have been recognized for perfect attendance. She doesn’t yet know if she’ll still be working this summer for her father, who was about to open a juice bar in Brooklyn.

In the meantime, Haddad’s school is offering some online instruction, but in her case the course load has dropped to just two classes: A.P. Literature, which meets virtually, and a government class, which consists of written assignments that she receives by e-mail. Haddad is planning to take her A.P. exam, though she finds it hard to imagine what the forty-five-minute, cell-phone-friendly version of the test will be like. No one knows how colleges will view it, either.

Life has been emptied of content, and the plot is lost. She texts with friends. She argues with her mom and stepdad a lot. “It’s bringing us closer together,” she half joked. “But it’s O.K.”

1What can be known about Haddad from Paragraph 2?

A.She has applied to study abroad.

B.She will attend a graduation ceremony.

C.She won’t work in her father’s juice bar.

D.She may get her college offers in late spring.

2How does Haddad feel about the A.P. exam?

A.Doubtful.B.Bored.

C.Excited.D.Nervous.

3In which section of a newspaper may the passage appear?

A.Family.B.Society.

C.Education .D.Health.

【题目】Taking pressure off sports competitions

Sports are a great way to have fun and stay active. Competitions can make sports more exciting. But because somebody wins and somebody loses competitions can also make kids be under pressure. 1 But too much pressure is bad news. Read on to learn more about sports pressure.

What is a competition?

There are different kinds of competition in sports. 2 For example, a swimmer might compete individually, but the person’s score may also contribute to a team’s score. What all sports competitions have in common is that all of the competitors want to win. 3

Why do I feel under pressure?

Do you ever have “butterflies” in your stomach? It’s that nervous feeling some people get when starting to attend a new school or preparing for a big soccer match. Believe it or not, the best player on your team gets nervous before a big game. 4 Feeling a little excited or nervous is OK, though. This helps your body and mind get ready to compete. But if you’re getting so nervous that you aren’t having much fun, it’s time to figure out why.

How can I deal with pressure?

When you’re competing in sports, you need a lot of energy. 5 Be sure to go to bed on time. And don’t forget to eat well on game day. Try to attend all of your team’s practices. By practicing, you’ll improve your playing skills. The more prepared you are, the better you’ll feel and the more fun you’ll have.

A.A little pressure can be OK.

B.What if you want to give up?

C.But usually only one person or team does.

D.It takes a lot of work to become skilled at a sport.

E.Even professional players feel nervous sometimes!

F.One secret to having lots of energy is to get plenty of sleep.

G.You may compete by yourself, as part of a team, or both.

【题目】 Long plane trips can be tiring. Luckily, there are things you can do both during and after a long flight that can help reduce (减轻) your discomfort.

During the flight

1 Boredom gives you the chance to pay attention to your discomfort. Instead, help pass the time by watching a movie, reading a book, writing a letter, walking up and down the aisle (过道), or listening to music.

Drink a lot and eat just a little. The longer the flight, the more the air dries out. 2 Stay away from wine and coffee because they can make you lose more water. Eat lightly.

Make yourself comfortable. Wear loose-fitting clothing and sit comfortably. 3 Avoid crossing your legs, and get any hard subjects out of your back pockets.

Get a good seat. Request a seat over the wing or the wheels. 4 Sitting in an aisle seat will make it easier for you to get up from your seat and will give you more legroom.

Sleep. If possible, sleep during night flights, and just take a very short sleep on day flights.

After arrival

There is no useful way to deal with jet lag (时差综合症). 5 For example, you can reset your watch when you take off, and you can eat and sleep at the local time right away.

A.Keep busy.

B.Avoid ear pain.

C.However, environmental treatment may help.

D.This is where you will hardly feel the moving or shaking.

E.Proper sitting helps reduce aches, pains and back soreness.

F.Drinking about one glass of water each hour can reduce this dryness.

G.Reduce ear pressure during takeoff and landing by having hard candy.
