After the recent storms, many Texans have been in desperate need of a plumber (管道工). Unfortunately, with pipes burst all over the state, and plumbing materials difficult to find, many families have been left without water and with their homes flooded.

The plumber, his wife, Kisha Pinnock, their two-year-old son, and brother-in-law, also his apprentice (学徒),Isiah Pinnock, made the 22-hour journey from their home in New Jersey with all the materials they could financially afford. Their first stop was to help Pinnock's sister in Humble, Texas.
From there > Mitchell and his apprentice一who is actually a college senior一went to other homes to help. Mitchell's wife said that the pair would come in at 2 a. m. and head back out at 7:30 in the morning.
“It's really a blessing to be a blessing to other people and Andrew truly enjoys the work" she explained, adding, "plumbing is his passion."
The family has been in Texas for nearly a week, and they wish to continue helping others as long as they have the materials to do so. There's a huge need for their services lot of the people we've helped were telling us they either can't get a plumber on the phone or一if they do get one on the phone一the wait to be serviced is three to four weeks out, so they can't have water during that entire time,” Pinnock pointed out.

For 300 years, the Slims River had been flowing through Canada’s Yukon region. But last year, in only four days, the water in the big river reduced sharply, which made the river almost disappear. What happened
After a year of careful studies, a group of scientists recently said that the sudden change of the river was caused by climate change. The Slims River used to be a big river, reaching up to 150 metres at its widest points. It carried melt water from the huge Kaskawulsh glacier(冰川) into the Kluane River, then into the Yukon River toward the Bering Sea.
But in spring 2016, there was a sharp melting of the Kaskawulsh glacier because of climate change. It made the melt water run in a different direction, and into a second river, the Alsek River, then into the Gulf of Alaska. It is thousands of kilometers away.
In geography, this is called “river piracy”. Although it was not unusual in ancient times, this is the first time it has happened under scientists’ noses in modern times. The Slims River is almost dry now, which also takes away the clean air in the region because strong wind blows up all the dust in the river bed. Fish have already swum to other rivers. And sheep from Kluane National Park are now coming down to eat the fresh plants.
Lonnie Thompson, a scientist from Ohio State University, the US, said that we could hardly feel the effects of climate change in our daily life, but the case of the Slims River shows what will happen when gradual temperature increases.
8. Why did the Slims River almost disappear
A. Because the air pollution brought more rain to Yukon region.
B. Because the climate suddenly became hotter than before.
C. Because the human activities destroyed the banks of the river.
D. Because the Kaskawulsh glacier did not exist any longer.
9. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage
A The Slims River has now become part of Kluane National Park.
B. The air in the region of the Sli ms Ri ver is still clean.
C. Climate change has no effect on our daily life.
D. Global warming can bring sudden changes to the environment.
10. In which direction did the water run in 2016
① the Kaskawulsh glacier ② the Gulf of Alaska
③ the Yukon River ④ the Alsek River
⑤ the Bering Sea ⑥ the Kluane River
A. ①→④→② B. ①→③→⑤
C. ③→⑥→⑤ D. ⑥→③→②
11. What may the underlined part “river piracy” in Paragraph 4 mean
A. A river suddenly disappears without any reason.
B. Two rivers join together to make a bigger one.
C. The flow of a river is suddenly taken away into another.
D. The water in a river reduces sharply.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍了由于气候变化,加拿大的河流,the Slims River几乎要消失。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段第一句话“After a year of careful studies, a group of scientists recently said that the sudden change of the river was caused by climate change. ”可知,科学家经过研究发现河流的突然变化是受气候影响的。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。A.The Slims River has now become part of Kluane National Park.(原文没有提到)根据第四段第三句“The Slims River is almost dry now, which also takes away the clean air in the region because strong wind blows up all the dust in the river bed.”(The Slims River现在几乎已经干涸了,它带走了这个地区的清洁空气,因为大风将尘土吹到河床。)B. The air in the region of the Slims River is still clean.(The Slims River区域的空气仍然很干净。)B项与原文不符,错误。C. Climate change has no effect on our daily life.(气候变化对我们的日常生活没有影响。)C项与事实不符,错误。D. Global warming can bring sudden changes to the environment.(全球变暖可能对环境产生突然的变化。)由此可知D符合语境。故选D。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“But in spring 2016, there was a sharp melting of the Kaskawulsh glacier because of climate change. It made the melt water run in a different direction, and into a second river, the Alsek River, then into the Gulf of Alaska. (但在2016年春天,由于气候变化,卡斯卡沃尔什冰川急剧融化。它使融化的水向不同的方向流动,进入第二条河,即阿尔塞克河,然后进入阿拉斯加湾。)”可知,2016年春天,先是the Kaskawulsh glacier冰层融化,然后融化的水流进Alsek River,最后到达the Gulf of Alaska。A. ①→④→②与原文顺序一致。故选A。
【11题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段“It made the melt water run in a different direction, and into a second river, the Alsek River, then into the Gulf of Alaska. ”可知,上文是对river piracy的解释,即融化的水朝不同方向流走。C. The flow of a river is suddenly taken away into another.(河流突然改变流向。)因此C项与文章意思吻合。故选C。
D
Last Tuesday, a robotic ship called the Mayflower Autonomous Ship (MAS) took off from Plymouth, England. Its mission (使命) was to recreate the 1620 crossing of the Atlantic by the Mayflower, which brought the first European settlers to the USA. But unlike the original Mayflower, there are no people on the MAS. Everything about the ship is designed to run automatically. The ship is guided by an artificial intelligence (AI) system called "AI Captain".
The MAS is a project run by a group called ProMare along with the computer company, IBM. The ship's electric motor is powered by solar energy. The goal of the project is to test different kinds of technologies for collecting information about the sea. If these can be handled by machines, it could be a big advance in ocean research.
Because the MAS didn't have to carry humans, its designers were free to think about how to make the best ship for the job. In addition to cameras and radar to help the ship guide itself, the ship is carrying many different kinds of tools and sensors. It has special listening devices which can detect whales and dolphins. It even has a special "tongue" which can report back on the chemicals in the water.
Last Friday morning, scientists tracking the ship noticed that it was going about half as fast as it should have been going. The AI Captain was working well, but there seemed to be something slowing the motor down. Since the ship had only covered 10% of the way across the Atlantic, the team decided to bring it back to Plymouth so they could fix the problem and send it out again. They sent the MAS instructions to turn back.
When the MAS finally does put out to sea again, it is expected to take about three weeks to cross the Atlantic Ocean. The fastest speed for the MAS is about 10 mph (16 kph). That may seem slow, but it's about 5 times faster than the original Mayflower, which took 66 days to make the journey.
12. What is the main mission of the MAS project
A. Take more Europeans across the Atlantic.
B. Explore the ocean with high technologies.
C. Develop new artificial intelligence system.
D. Test the new robotic ship of IBM on the sea.
13. What happened to the MAS on the sea
A. There was something wrong with the AI Captain.
B. The scientists failed to guide the ship completely.
C. The ship couldn't reach its destination as planned.
D. The robotic ship's electric motor didn't work well.
14. What can we know from the last paragraph
A. The robotic ship will set sail again soon.
B. The journey will be difficult and dangerous.
C. The entire journey will be about 2, 100 miles.
D. The MAS will travel farther than the original one.
15. What's the best title for the text
A. A Robotic Ship Guided by the AI Captain System.
B. Self-Driving Mayflower Ship Forced to Turn Back.
C. The Fastest Robotic Ship Sailing Across the Atlantic.
D. Another Mayflower Recreating the Cross-Atlantic Trip.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. D
【解析】

【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“When the MAS finally does put out to sea again, it is expected to take about three weeks to cross the Atlantic Ocean.(当MAS最终再次出海时,预计需要大约三周的时间才能穿越大西洋。)”可知,MAS将很快会再次出海。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其根据第一段“Last Tuesday, a robotic ship called the Mayflower Autonomous Ship (MAS) took off from Plymouth, England. Its mission (使命) was to recreate the 1620 crossing of the Atlantic by the Mayflower, which brought the first European settlers to the USA.(上周二,一艘名为五月花号的机器人船从英格兰的普利茅斯出发。它的任务是重现1620年五月花号穿越大西洋的历史,那时第一批欧洲殖民者来到了美国。)”可知,文章主要介绍了一艘同样名为“五月花号”的人工智能船将再次穿越大西洋,只是与之前那艘任务不同而已。D项“另一个五月花再现跨大西洋旅行。”符合题意,适合做标题。故选D项。

It is better to adjust your goals or your timetable than to proceed with a plan that is unrealistic.
·____19____
Find someone, a coworker or a friend, with whom you share a common goal. Get someone to go to the gym with you, or to quit smoking with you, or to share healthy meals with you. A partner can help you stay committed and motivated.

【18题详解】
空格前说“If information or skill is keeping you from achieving your goals, determine ways to fill in the gaps, and build this into your action plan”(如果信息或技能阻碍了你实现目标,那就想办法填补空白,并将其纳入你的行动计划),G选项Be willing to study and work hard to reach your goals.(要愿意为实现目标而努力学习和工作)中的work hard to reach your goals和determine ways to fill in the gaps相呼应,因此G选项切合题意,故选G。
【19题详解】
空格处为本段主题句,由本段第一句“Find someone, a coworker or a friend, with whom you share a common goal”(找一个和你有共同目标的人,同事或者朋友)可知,本段是关于寻求他人帮助的,因此A选项Seek the help of others(寻求他人的帮助)切合题意,故选A。
【20题详解】

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了2022年北京冬奥会和冬残奥会吉祥物揭晓,吉祥物是一只名为“冰墩墩”的动画大熊猫和一个名为“雪融融”的红灯笼宝宝。
【41题详解】
考查冠词。句意:2022年北京冬奥会和残奥会吉祥物揭晓,吉祥物是一只名为“冰墩墩”的动画大熊猫和一个名为“雪融融”的红灯笼宝宝。设空处修饰red lantern baby,应用不定冠词,red以辅音音素开头。故填a。
【42题详解】
考查一般现在时的被动语态。句意:大熊猫将成为奥运会的吉祥物,被视为中国的象征。此处描述客观事实,所以应用一般现在时。动词 regard意为“认为”,和主语“The giant panda”构成被动关系。主语为第三人称单数。故填is regarded。
【43题详解】
考查名词。句意:“冰墩墩”这个名字是由多种意思组成的,其中“冰”的中文意思是“冰”,而“墩墩”的意思是健康和活泼。在“a...of”中间应用名词作 is的表语。名词 combination意为“组合”符合语境,a combination of“一个……的组合”。故填 combination。
【44题详解】
考查现在分词。句意:“冰墩墩”这个名字是由多种意思组成的,其中“冰”的中文意思是“冰”,而“墩墩”的意思是健康和活泼。在 with 复合结构中,动词 mean 意为“意思是”,和逻辑主语“Dwen Dwen”构成主动关系,所以应用现在分词。故填 meaning。
【45题详解】

【47题详解】
考查副词。句意:鲜艳的红色形象非常适合这一盛会,尤其是2022年2月和3月,北京奥运会将与中国农历新年同时举行。修饰句子应用副词作状语。副词 especially 意为“尤其,特别”。故填 especially。
【48题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意:吉祥物结合了中国和中国人民的最佳元素和特点。根据“a wonderful spokesperson for China”可知,吉祥物结合了中国和中国人民的最佳元素和特点。所以应用形容词最高级 best。故填best。
【49题详解】
考查固定句式。句意:吉祥物不仅代表了中国的灯笼,还代表了中国的新年。“not only but also.…. ”意为“不仅……而且……”,为固定句式。故填but。
【50题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:这是向下一代中国人民传递的未来信息,他们将被残奥运动员惊人的信念所激励。在定语从句中缺少主语,先行词为“the future generation of Chinese people”,指人,所以应用关系代词 that 或 who。故填who/that。

Last Sunday's morning, some students of our school paid a visit to the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), which was of great beneficial. I'd like to introduce some details.
The instant when we arrived at the USTC, we headed for the teaching zone, which was fairly quiet comparing with that of our school. Then, we visit its library and were surprised by its huge quantities of books. After that, they were given an opportunity to enter the lab, that the advanced technology left a deep impression on us. At last, we had a friendly talk about the students studying there.
As far as I'm concerned, the activity gets us to know about the university and inspiring us to work hard. In fact, only if we study hard we enter a satisfying university.
【答案】1.Sunday's→Sunday
2.beneficial→benefit
3.去掉 when
4.comparing→compared
5.visit→visited
6they→we
7.that→where
8.about→with/to
9.inspiring→inspires
10.hard后加上will/can/shall
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了上个星期天上午学校组织了一些学生参观中国科学技术大学的活动。
【详解】1.考查名词。句意:上个星期天上午,我们学校的一些学生参观了中国科学技术大学,这是非常有益的。表示“上周日”应用Last Sunday,可知此处要用名词形式。故将Sunday's改为Sunday。
2.考查名词。句意:上个星期天上午,我们学校的一些学生参观了中国科学技术大学,这是非常有益的。短语be of great benefit“非常有益的”=very beneficial。故将beneficial改为benefit。
3.考查连词。句意:一到科大,我们就直奔教学区,那里比我们学校的教学区安静多了。The instant“一…就…,当…时”,是连词,可知此处连词when多余。故将when去掉 。
4.考查非谓语动词。句意:一到科大,我们就直奔教学区,那里比我们学校的教学区安静多了。分析句子可知,句中已有谓语动词was,此处前无连接词且compare和逻辑主语which之间是被动关系,可知此处要用过去分词形式。故将comparing改为compared。
5.考查时态。句意:然后,我们参观了它的图书馆,惊讶于它的大量书籍。此处是本句谓语动词,根据上文Last Sunday morning,可知此处时态是一般过去时,要用动词的过去式。故将visit改为visited。
6.考查代词。句意:之后,我们有机会进入实验室,那里的先进技术给我们留下了深刻的印象。根据上文we headed for the teaching zone可知此处主语也是we“我们”。故将they改为we。
7.考查定语从句的关系词。句意:之后,我们有机会进入实验室,那里的先进技术给我们留下了深刻的印象。分析句子可知,此处是一个非限制性定语从句,先行词是the lab,根据定语从句the advanced technology left a deep impression on us中缺少地点状语,可知此处要用关系副词where。故将that改为where。
8.考查介词。句意:最后,我们和在那里学习的学生进行了友好的交谈。固定短语talk about“谈论某事”,talk with/to“与…交谈”,根据the students studying there可知此处要用介词with/to。故将about改为with/to。
9.考查时态。句意:在我看来,这个活动让我们了解大学,激励我们努力学习。根据and可知get和inspire是并列谓语,因此时态是一般现在时,主语是the activity,因此此处要用动词的第三人称单数形式。故将inspiring改为inspires。
10.考查情态动词。句意:事实上,只有我们努力学习,我们才会进入一个令人满意的大学。根据only if 可知此处是一个部分倒装句,因此要在hard后加情态动词will/can/shall。故在hard后加上will/can/shall。

Dear Frank,
Thank you for your letter

Yours sincerely
Li Ping
【答案】Dear Frank,
Thank you for your letter. I'm more than happy to hear from you. You have asked for my advice on buying a mobile phone to help you with your study. To tell you the truth, I've thought a lot about the matter and it would seem to me that you'd better not.
In my opinion, having a mobile phone doesn't necessarily improve your study. For one reason,it's very easy for you to form some bad habits once you have it, such as playing computer games,seeing movies and so on, which will be a waste of time .For another reason, buying a mobile phone doesn't mean you can study well.If you want to make progress,you need to put your heart into your study and work hard. Whether you have a mobile phone or not is not the most important .In addition,it will take a lot of money to buy a mobile phone.
I hope you will think the matter over and I would be ready to discuss this matter with you further.
Yours sincerely.
Li Hua

For 300 years, the Slims River had been flowing through Canada’s Yukon region. But last year, in only four days, the water in the big river reduced sharply, which made the river almost disappear. What happened
After a year of careful studies, a group of scientists recently said that the sudden change of the river was caused by climate change. The Slims River used to be a big river, reaching up to 150 metres at its widest points. It carried melt water from the huge Kaskawulsh glacier(冰川) into the Kluane River, then into the Yukon River toward the Bering Sea.
But in spring 2016, there was a sharp melting of the Kaskawulsh glacier because of climate change. It made the melt water run in a different direction, and into a second river, the Alsek River, then into the Gulf of Alaska. It is thousands of kilometers away.
In geography, this is called “river piracy”. Although it was not unusual in ancient times, this is the first time it has happened under scientists’ noses in modern times. The Slims River is almost dry now, which also takes away the clean air in the region because strong wind blows up all the dust in the river bed. Fish have already swum to other rivers. And sheep from Kluane National Park are now coming down to eat the fresh plants.
Lonnie Thompson a scientist from Ohio State University, the US, said that we could hardly feel the effects of climate change in our daily life, but the case of the Slims River shows what will happen when gradual temperature increases.
8. Why did the Slims River almost disappear

Last Tuesday, a robotic ship called the Mayflower Autonomous Ship (MAS) took off from Plymouth, England. Its mission (使命) was to recreate the 1620 crossing of the Atlantic by the Mayflower, which brought the first European settlers to the USA. But unlike the original Mayflower, there are no people on the MAS. Everything about the ship is designed to run automatically. The ship is guided by an artificial intelligence (AI) system called "AI Captain".
The MAS is a project run by a group called ProMare along with the computer company, IBM. The ship's electric motor is powered by solar energy. The goal of the project is to test different kinds of technologies for collecting information about the sea. If these can be handled by machines, it could be a big advance in ocean research.
Because the MAS didn't have to carry humans, its designers were free to think about how to make the best ship for the job. In addition to cameras and radar to help the ship guide itself, the ship is carrying many different kinds of tools and sensors. It has special listening devices which can detect whales and dolphins. It even has a special "tongue" which can report back on the chemicals in the water.
Last Friday morning, scientists tracking the ship noticed that it was going about half as fast as it should have been going. The AI Captain was working well, but there seemed to be something slowing the motor down. Since the ship had only covered 10% of the way across the Atlantic, the team decided to bring it back to Plymouth so they could fix the problem and send it out again. They sent the MAS instructions to turn back.
When the MAS finally does put out to sea again, it is expected to take about three weeks to cross the Atlantic Ocean. The fastest speed for the MAS is about 10 mph (16 kph). That may seem slow, but it's about 5 times faster than the original Mayflower, which took 66 days to make the journey.
12. What is the main mission of the MAS project
A. Take more Europeans across the Atlantic.
B. Explore the ocean with high technologies.
C. Develop new artificial intelligence system.
D. Test the new robotic ship of IBM on the sea.
13. What happened to the MAS on the sea
A. There was something wrong with the AI Captain.
B. The scientists failed to guide the ship completely.
C. The ship couldn't reach its destination as planned.
D. The robotic ship's electric motor didn't work well.
14. What can we know from the last paragraph
A. The robotic ship will set sail again soon.
B. The journey will be difficult and dangerous.
C. The entire journey will be about 2, 100 miles.
D. The MAS will travel farther than the original one.
15. What's the best title for the text
A. A Robotic Ship Guided by the AI Captain System.
B. Self-Driving Mayflower Ship Forced to Turn Back.
C. The Fastest Robotic Ship Sailing Across the Atlantic.
D. Another Mayflower Recreating the Cross-Atlantic Trip.
