题目内容

【题目】阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

We touch our faces all the time, and it had never seemed to be a big problem – until COVID-19 arrived. 【1】 (touch) our faces – the “T-zone” of our eyes, nose and mouth in particular – can mean giving ourselves the 【2】 (dead) virus. This is why 【3】 (organization) like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have suggested that we avoid touching our faces. “Just stop this simple behavior,” William Sawyer, founder of Henry the Hand, a nonprofit organization that promotes hand hygiene(卫生), 【4】(tell) The Washington Post. “It’s the one behavior 【5】 would be better than any vaccine ever created.”

Yet, stopping this “simple” behavior might be harder than you think because it’s already hardwired(固有的) into our system. Some face touching is automatic – like when there is 【6】 itch on your nose, you’ll scratch it without thinking. Moreover, face-touching is subconscious, 【7】 means it’s very hard to change because you don’t even know you’re doing it. 【8】you’re not alone. In a 2015 study, where a group of medical students 【9】 (film) in class, it was found that they touched their faces an average of 23 times an hour – with 44 percent of the touches being in the “T-zones”. That was particularly surprising since medical students were supposed 【10】(know) better. Since it’s so hard to shake the habit, maybe the easiest way is to wash our hands more often. This way, we can be sure that our hands are free from the novel coronavirus.

【答案】

【1】Touching

【2】deadly

【3】organizations

【4】told

【5】that

【6】an

【7】which

【8】But

【9】were filmed

【10】to know

【解析】

这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了人们日常喜欢触摸脸的这个习惯背后的隐患，尤其是在COVID-19肆虐的情况下，许多组织建议人们避免触碰自己的脸。文章还分析了要停止这个动作比想象中困难的原因，建议多洗手，确保双手免受新型冠状病毒的感染。

【1】

考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知touch在句中应用非谓语动词形式，且句中缺少主语，故应用动名词短语touching our faces作主语，句首单词首字母要大写。故填Touching。

【2】

考查形容词。修饰后文名词virus应用形容词作定语，且表示“致命的”应用deadly。故填deadly。

【3】

考查名词的数。organization为可数名词，结合后文like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)可知应用复数形式。故填organizations。

【4】

考查动词时态。句意：倡导手部卫生的非营利组织“亨利之手”的创始人William Sawyer对《华盛顿邮报》说:“只要停止这种简单的行为。”动作发生在过去，应用一般过去时。故填told。

【5】

考查强调句。句意：这是一种比任何疫苗都好的行为。分析句子结构可知此处为强调句结构“it be+被强调部分+that/who+其他”，此处被强调部分为the one behavior，故应用that。故填that。

【6】

考查冠词。itch为可数名词，此处表泛指应用不定冠词，且itch为元音音素开头的单词故用an。故填an。

【7】

考查定语从句。句意：此外，碰脸是潜意识的，这意味着很难改变，因为你甚至不知道你在做什么。此处为非限定性定语从句修饰上文整个句子，且从句中缺少主语，故用关系代词which。故填which。

【8】

考查连词。句意：但你不是一个人。结合上下文语境可知为转折关系，故应用连词but。句首单词首字母要大写。故填But。

【9】

考查动词时态语态。句中主语与谓语动词构成被动关系，且事情发生在2015年应用一般过去时，主语为a group of medical students，谓语动词用复数形式。故填were filmed。

【10】

考查非谓语动词。句意：这尤其令人惊讶，因为医学院的学生应该知道得更多。结合句意表示“应该做某事”短语为be supposed to do sth.。故填to know。

With the graduation day approaching, memory are flooding back to me. I remember how unwillingly I was to enter the classroom. “If I have studied harder before, I would have gone to a better senior high school,” I said it to myself. However, I later realized I fell in love with a school.

The campus scenery is pleasant. The antique pavilion (亭子), where stands on a small hillside, impresses me most. Surrounded green trees, I can admire the beautiful sunrise and sunset. I often wander around the charming pond and see myself reflecting in its transparent water. Any pains I have are smoothed and float away. The kind teachers and easy-going classmates also warm my heart and cheer me up when I am in low spirits.

Every time I recall my unforgettable moments, I smile. We’ve all grew over these three years.

Dear world, here is why you should care about astronomy. It’s true that its advances benefit millions of people across the world. It has developed technology now to track where your 【1】 (pack) goes, to determine where you are and so 【2】.

But all of these are mere second thoughts, 【3】 (benefit) that have occurred without the primary intention of the maker. And that is 【4】 makes astronomy beautiful. To study something - not because we’re looking to gain anything in particular, but purely 【5】 (enjoy) natural wonders - 【6】 (be) all that makes us human. Doing work for the work itself creates room for mindfulness and joy.

I 【7】 (firm) believe that astronomy has a spiritual dimension in the sense of how it connects us with something bigger than ourselves. Because 【8】 astronomy, we now know exactly when the Universe 【9】 (come) into existence. And we’ve spotted thousands of planets orbiting other stars.

【题目】 The college schedule is very different from the traditional high school schedule. 【1】 In high school, you had to take the US History, which was offered every day at 10:00 a.m. In college, you’ll probably need to take a history class, but you could have 10 choices offered on different days and at different times.

【2】 For example, you will pick a course that will determine the types of classes you will specialize in. In high school, you have a set curriculum of classes you have to take across all subject areas. 【3】 During the first two years, you’ll take more general education classes. But during your junior and senior years, you’ll take fewer general education classes.

Another big difference you should be aware of is classes. Now, you’re in school from 7:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. 【4】 In college, you might have a science class on Mondays and Fridays from 10:10-11:00 a.m. Perhaps you’ll have a Chinese class on Thursdays from 1:15-3:00 p.m.

【5】 If you go to a large university, your campus will be your home and might take up an entire town. You might see hundreds of students going out to bars every night. Many colleges are home both to academic and social clubs. In high school your stage is regional. In college, your stage is national-and sometimes global.

B.In college, think about your schedule as a pyramid.

C.Some things will appear similar, but many will be different.

D.Typically, there is a lot more flexibility with your college classes.

E.The differences will challenge your self-management as much as your abilities.

G.The other cool thing is that you usually have more opportunities to explore your interests.

【题目】Surprising uses for lemons

Lemons are tasty and healthy, but they are simply so much more than for making lemonade. 【1】

◇Lemons are used to refresh and clean a cutting board.

With garlic and onions being used widely in cooking, the struggle of washing the unpleasant smell out of a cutting board is something many people can relate to. But not only that, the cutting board can be home to all sorts of harmful bacteria.

【2】 Cut one in half and press the fruit against the board, wipe hard until the juices flow over the board, wash and enjoy your lemon-fresh cutting board.

◇Lemons are used to unclog a drain（疏通排水管）.

First, several lemons are squeezed for their juices into a cup, then the drain is washed with boiling water before being filled with half a box of baking soda（苏打）. Lemon juice is poured over the baking soda, causing it to bubble. 【3】

◇Another part of your kitchen you can clean with lemons is your microwave.

Putting some lemon juice into a cup of water and microwaving for 5 minutes not only loosens up stains in the microwave so they are easily wiped away, but leaves a fresh smell behind.

◇【4】

If you are lucky enough to have a dishwasher in your house, you can freshen things up by putting a few lemon slices into your dishwasher.

◇Lemons can be used to create a homemade face scrub（磨砂膏）.

【题目】 Nowadays, to work remotely, all you need are a computer and an Internet connection. According to a new study, employees who can work from anywhere else are generally happier than those who work onsite(现场的)in an office.

Video conferencing company Owl Labs surveyed 1,202 full-time US workers from the ages of 22 to 65, and discovered that 62 percent of the respondents worked remotely at least some of the time and 38 percent worked onsite. Of the remote workers, 49 percent worked remotely full-time.

As it turns out, working remotely—or the idea of it—makes people happy, 83 percent of the survey respondents agree that the ability to work remotely would make them happier, and 71 percent of workers who do get to work remotely said their job makes them happy, compared with 55 percent of office-only workers.

In the study, full-time remote workers said they're happy in their job, 22 percent more than people who never work remotely. The reasons why respondents said they decided to work remotely were better work-life balance(91 percent), increased productivity/better focus(79 percent), less stress(78 percent), and to avoid a commute(通勤)(78 percent).

One reason why remote workers might be happier is that they were more than twice as likely to earn more than $100,000 per year. And the higher they were on the corporate(公司的)ladder, the more likely survey respondents were to have the privilege of working remotely: The job levels with the greatest percentages of remote workers were founder/CEO-level(55 percent)and vice president(46 percent).

Loyalty is another factor: Remote workers are 13 percent more likely than non-remote workers to stay with their current job for the next five years—making remote work a win-win for employees and employers alike.

Not only are remote employees happier, but they are prepared to work longer hours, according to the report. Remote workers said they work over 40 hours per week, 43 percent more than on-site workers do.
