When girls play with cars, they're serious. It was at primary school that Gu Huijing first became interested in cars after watching some car-themed movies. Born in 2004 in Shenzhen, Guangdong province, Gu decided to major in automobiles (汽车) when she was in junior high.
She's driven by interest, but she is also a realist. “I think the future of the automobile industry is bright because we cannot live without food, clothes, houses and cars,” she said.
In April, she won first prize at a competition for vehicle maintenance (车辆维修) in Dongguan city, which drew 33 teams from different cities across the province.
“I thought it couldn't be that hard to repair cars when I started to take courses, but I was totally wrong,” Gu said. When she started learning in 2019, she was frequently confused by various problems. “And competition within our school is intense, so I had to work extra hard,” she said.
Her teacher once tried to persuade her to give up as she was a sophomore (大二学生), and wasn't as knowledgeable as the seniors, and no women had ever been selected for the competition before. “But I insisted that I would carry on,” she said. Finally, her training and hard work won her the only place to stand for her school at the competition.
A woman winning first prize in a vehicle maintenance competition became a hot topic on-line, causing heated discussions over gender (性别) and career choices. “Women should not be influenced by old-fashioned thinking, and should do whatever it takes to discover their interests and strengths. There are more possibilities out there,” one netizen wrote.
Gu said, “Many people think vehicle maintenance is a job for men. That's wrong. I don't think gender has anything to do with choice of jobs.” “I have a goal and I will work harder to make it happen,” she added. “I will be responsible for my choices.”
4. What was a cause of Gu's choosing automobiles as her major
A. The love for automobiles.
B. The guidance from her parents.
C. The high popularity of automobiles.
D. The determination to contribute to society.
5. Why did Gu's teacher advise her to quit the competition
A. She lacked the knowledge related to it.
B. She had never taken part in a competition before.
C. She was unlikely to win the competition.
D. Women were not allowed to enter the competition.
6. Which of the following best describes Gu Huijing
A. Creative and caring. B. Determined and hard-working.
C. Independent and humorous. D. Honest and courageous.
7. What would be the best title for the text
A. There Is No End To Learning
B. Teenage Girl Wins Car Repair Contest
C. Vehicle Maintenance Catches On
D. Taking Challenge Leads To Success
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇新闻报道,主要报道的是女孩顾慧静在东莞市的一场汽车维修比赛中获得了一等奖。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“It was at primary school that Gu Huijing first became interested in cars after watching some car-themed movies. Born in 2004 in Shenzhen, Guangdong province, Gu decided to major in automobiles (汽车) when she was in junior high.(在上小学的时候,顾慧静看了一些以汽车为主题的电影后,第一次对汽车产生了兴趣。谷女士2004年出生于广东省深圳市,初中时她决定主修汽车专业。)”可知,对汽车的热爱是顾女士选择汽车专业的原因之一,故选A。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段的“Her teacher once tried to persuade her to give up as she was a sophomore, and wasn't as knowledgeable as the seniors, and no women had ever been selected for the competition before.(她的老师曾经试图说服她放弃,因为她是一个大二学生,没有大四学生那么博学,而且以前从来没有女性被选中参加比赛。 )”可知,老师认为她不大可能赢得这场比赛,所以劝她退出比赛,故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段的““But I insisted that I would carry on,” she said. Finally, her training and hard work won her the only place to stand for her school at the competition.(“但我坚持要坚持下去,”她说。最后,她的训练和努力为她赢得了学校在比赛中唯一的一席之地。)”可推知,顾慧静是有决心的和努力的,故选B。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第三段的“In April, she won first prize at a competition for vehicle maintenance (车辆维修) in Dongguan city, which drew 33 teams from different cities across the province.(今年4月,她在东莞市的一场汽车维修比赛中获得了一等奖,该比赛吸引了来自全省不同城市的33支队伍。 )”可知,本文主要报道的是女孩顾慧静在东莞市的一场汽车维修比赛中获得了一等奖,因此本文最好的题目是B选项Teenage Girl Wins Car Repair Contest(十几岁的女孩赢得了汽车修理比赛),故选B。

From skateboarding to Fleetwood Mac, TikTok users got creative in a pandemic (流行病) year with new songs, dances and shows in 60 seconds or less.
The social media video app on Wednesday shared its list of top 100 videos, creators and trends in America during 2020. “These videos brought joy and inspiration to millions of Americans in the rough year,” said Kudzi Chikumbu, director of creator community at TikTok.
The platform has been widely associated with Generation Z (people born after 1996), millennials (people born in the 1980s or 1990s) and influencers who have started careers based on the shared videos.
The Weeknd's Blinding Lights and Jason Derulo's Savage Love inspired TikTok dance challenges that made them among the top songs used on the app.
For some TikTok creators, the pandemic itself became inspiration to create a connection with other edian Caitlin Reilly used the app during quarantine (隔离) to make fun of those annoying coworkers for one of the top liked videos. And singer Curtis Roach made an song for the endless days at home with his song Bored in the House.
The second most popular video was an Idaho man named Nathan Apodaca who shot to fame after coolly singing Dreams by Fleetwood Mac, while skateboarding on a highway.
But the most liked TikTok video was awarded to Bella Poarch with 45 million followers, who created a simple but interesting video with a few seconds of well-timed head nods and eye rolls.
While the app might be designed for youth, Chikumbu said that the growth of TikTok this year has pushed it more into mainstream culture. “You're seeing everyone from the teenager to the college students with their parents and then their grandparents all making videos,” said Chikumbu. “And now TikTok truly transcends generations, particularly in this year when people had a lot of time to dig in and not only watch, but try.”

【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段最后一句“And singer Curtis Roach made an song for the endless days at home with his song Bored in the House.(并且歌手柯蒂斯·罗琦用他的歌曲《Bored in the House》为在家隔离的无止境的日子制作了一首歌曲)”根据句中的endless“无止境的”可知,柯蒂斯·罗琦认为隔离期间的生活是无趣的。故选择D项。

If you struggle to fall asleep quickly, you’re not alone! Fortunately, there are plenty of solutions you can try. With a few changes, you can fall asleep fast every night!
Keep your room dark. Turn off all the lights above your head when you go to bed. Any bright light can make you believe it is too early in the day for sleep. If you want to read or write before bed, try using a small book light. Now that blue lights can keep you awake, red ones are a great choice.
If you can, keep noise in and around your room the lowest at night. If you have an old clock that ticks loudly and keeps you awake, replace it with a silent one. If you share your home with anyone else, request that they keep noises like talking, music, or TV shows at the lowest while you are trying to sleep. It is difficult to fall asleep if you live near a busy road or hear other boring sounds after bedtime. You could get a white noise machine or play recordings of nature sounds, like waves or whales’ singing. You could also listen to soft, relaxing music.
Read a book in bed if you have difficulty in falling asleep. Staying in bed doing nothing when you’re having trouble falling asleep may keep you wide awake. While reading in bed may be slightly harmful to your eyes, it can distract (分散) you from your thoughts and help you feel sleepy. But remember to read from a print book rather than something with a screen. The light from electronic screens can keep you awake.
Lowering your body temperature helps you sleep, so set the room temperature between 15.5℃-21℃ could do the trick.
12. What color book light should you choose to read before bed
A. Red. B. Blue.
C. White. D. Orange.
13. What is the author’s attitude towards reading in bed
A. Doubtful. B. Worried.
C. Favorable. D. Uncaring.
14. What can we inferred from the text
A. Reading on cellphones sometimes helps you fall asleep.
B. The lower your temperature while sleeping is, the better.
C. Bright lights are better for your reading before going to bed.
D. Playing recordings like birds’ singing can improve your sleep.
15. How does the author organize the text
A. By giving examples. B. By asking questions.
C. By offering suggestions. D. By listing research results.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要向我们介绍了改善睡眠的方法。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段关键句“If you want to read or write before bed, try using a small book light. Now that blue lights can keep you awake, red ones are a great choice.”(如果你想在睡前阅读或写作,试着用一盏小型书灯。既然蓝光可以让你保持清醒,那么红光就是一个不错的选择。)可知,如果你想在睡前阅读或写作,可以使用发出红光的小型书灯,不要用蓝光的,那会让你保持清醒,由此可知,睡前你应该选择使用发出红光的书灯。故选A项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段关键句“Read a book in bed if you have difficulty in falling asleep.”(如果你难以入睡,在床上看书。)和“While reading in bed may be slightly harmful to your eyes, it can distract (分散) you from your thoughts and help you feel sleepy.”(虽然躺在床上看书可能对你的眼睛轻微有害,但它会分散你的注意力,让你感到困倦。)可知,作者建议我们在难以入睡时,可以躺在床上看会儿书,因为它会分散你的注意力,让你感到困倦,由此可推断出,作者对在床上阅读的态度是赞同的。故选C项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段关键句“You could get a white noise machine or play recordings of nature sounds, like waves or whales’ singing. You could also listen to soft, relaxing music.”(你可以得到一台白噪声机器,或者播放自然声音的录音,比如海浪声或鲸鱼的歌声。你也可以听轻柔、放松的音乐。)可知,作者建议我们听自然声音的录音,比如海浪声或鲸鱼的歌声,可以帮助我们入睡,浏览选项,“birds’ singing”意为“鸟儿的歌声”,也属于自然的声音,由此可知,播放像鸟儿的歌声这样的录音可以改善你的睡眠。故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段关键句“Fortunately, there are plenty of solutions you can try.”(幸运的是,你可以尝试很多解决方法。)可知,作者在文章中主要向我们介绍了改善睡眠的方法,再结合下文中“Keep your room dark.”(让你的房间保持黑暗。)和“Read a book in bed if you have difficulty in falling asleep.”(如果你难以入睡,在床上看书。)可知,作者下文中分别给出了改善睡眠的具体建议,例如保持房间黑暗和睡前阅读等,由此可知,作者是通过提出建议的方式组织这篇文章的。故选C项。

【小题2详解】根据下句“Use the Internet to determine whether a beach is pet friendly. (在网上查询海滨是否欢迎宠物)”可知,这一段主要讲提前弄清楚哪家海滨允许宠物。空格处是主题句,根据后面三段的主题句都是祈使句,可知A项和B项符合句式相似,再结合意思可知,B. Make sure you choose a beach that allows pets. (确保你选择的海滨允许宠物进入)符合语境,故选B。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I could hear footsteps (脚步声) following me. I stopped and turned to see who it was. The dark street light did not allow me to see far and it looked like I was alone. I could not hear anything other than my heart beating wildly. Was it my imagination
I was returning home after a late music lesson. My parents were attending a meeting so I had to get home on my own. The distance from my music teacher’s house to my home was just 500 meters. The street was darker than I had expected but I was not very worried about the short walk home. I was busy thinking about my upcoming music exam when I became aware that I was being followed.
I continued on my way, keeping an eye out for any sounds. There it was again, the sound of someone walking behind me. Fear came over me and I hurried on. My house was just around the corner. I decided to run. To my surprise, the person following me began to run too. I looked behind me and saw a dark figure catching up with me. Suddenly, I ran into a dustbin by the road and fell over.
I felt a hand catch hold of my arm and I screamed loudly in fear. The hand let go of my arm and I pushed myself off the ground quickly getting ready to run again. It was at that moment that I found myself looking at a young lady dressed in a dark sports suit. It looked like she had been scared by my reaction.
The next moment, there was a lot of footsteps coming from the dark and I could hear someone calling my name. To my surprise, a few seconds later my parents appeared together with a few people who were my neighbors.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
The young lady who looked anxious at first now seemed as relaxed as me. We all walked to our houses which were just two doors away. As my mother applied medicine to my arms and legs, I was asked to explain why I ran away from our new neighbor, the young lady. After listening to what I said patiently, my new neighbor couldn’t help laughing. She told us that she moved here just several days ago and was new to the neighborhood. She had gone jogging that evening.
My new neighbor explained that she was walking behind me when she heard footsteps following her. She decided to run when she saw me start running. It turned out that what she had heard was the neighborhood watch group checking the street. When I fell, she went to help me up, which unfortunately led to my screaming out in fear. The night ended with our having dinner together. Indeed, it was an unusual introduction to the neighborhood for my new neighbor. However, after that, we became good friends and often jogged together after dinner.

When girls play with cars, they're serious. It was at primary school that Gu Huijing first became interested in cars after watching some car-themed movies. Born in 2004 in Shenzhen, Guangdong province, Gu decided to major in automobiles (汽车) when she was in junior high.
She's driven by interest, but she is also a realist. “I think the future of the automobile industry is bright because we cannot live without food, clothes, houses and cars,” she said.
In April, she won first prize at a competition for vehicle maintenance (车辆维修) in Dongguan city, which drew 33 teams from different cities across the province.
“I thought it couldn't be that hard to repair cars when I started to take courses, but I was totally wrong,” Gu said. When she started learning in 2019, she was frequently confused by various problems. “And competition within our school is intense, so I had to work extra hard,” she said.
Her teacher once tried to persuade her to give up as she was a sophomore (大二学生), and wasn't as knowledgeable as the seniors, and no women had ever been selected for the competition before. “But I insisted that I would carry on,” she said. Finally, her training and hard work won her the only place to stand for her school at the competition.
A woman winning first prize in a vehicle maintenance competition became a hot topic on-line, causing heated discussions over gender (性别) and career choices. “Women should not be influenced by old-fashioned thinking, and should do whatever it takes to discover their interests and strengths. There are more possibilities out there,” one netizen wrote.
Gu said “Many people think vehicle maintenance is a job for men. That's wrong. I don't think gender has anything to do with choice of jobs.” “I have a goal and I will work harder to make it happen,” she added. “I will be responsible for my choices.”
4. What was a cause of Gu's choosing automobiles as her major
A. The love for automobiles.
B. The guidance from her parents.
C. The high popularity of automobiles.
D. The determination to contribute to society.
5. Why did Gu's teacher advise her to quit the competition
A She lacked the knowledge related to it.
B. She had never taken part in a competition before.
C. She was unlikely to win the competition.
D. Women were not allowed to enter the competition.
6. Which of the following best describes Gu Huijing
A. Creative and caring. B. Determined and hard-working.
C. Independent and humorous. D. Honest and courageous.
7. What would be the best title for the text
A. There Is No End To Learning
B. Teenage Girl Wins Car Repair Contest
C. Vehicle Maintenance Catches On
D. Taking Challenge Leads To Success

From skateboarding to Fleetwood Mac, TikTok users got creative in a pandemic (流行病) year with new songs, dances and shows in 60 seconds or less.
The social media video app on Wednesday shared its list of top 100 videos, creators and trends in America during 2020. “These videos brought joy and inspiration to millions of Americans in the rough year,” said Kudzi Chikumbu, director of creator community at TikTok.
The platform has been widely associated with Generation Z (people born after 1996), millennials (people born in the 1980s or 1990s) and influencers who have started careers based on the shared videos.
The Weeknd's Blinding Lights and Jason Derulo's Savage Love inspired TikTok dance challenges that made them among the top songs used on the app.
For some TikTok creators, the pandemic itself became inspiration to create a connection with other edian Caitlin Reilly used the app during quarantine (隔离) to make fun of those annoying coworkers for one of the top liked videos. And singer Curtis Roach made an song for the endless days at home with his song Bored in the House.
The second most popular video was an Idaho man named Nathan Apodaca who shot to fame after coolly singing Dreams by Fleetwood Mac, while skateboarding on a highway.
But the most liked TikTok video was awarded to Bella Poarch with 45 million followers, who created a simple but interesting video with a few seconds of well-timed head nods and eye rolls.
While the app might be designed for youth, Chikumbu said that the growth of TikTok this year has pushed it more into mainstream culture. “You're seeing everyone from the teenager to the college students with their parents and then their grandparents all making videos,” said Chikumbu. “And now TikTok truly transcends generations, particularly in this year when people had a lot of time to dig in and not only watch, but try.”

If you struggle to fall asleep quickly, you’re not alone! Fortunately, there are plenty of solutions you can try. With a few changes, you can fall asleep fast every night!
Keep your room dark. Turn off all the lights above your head when you go to bed. Any bright light can make you believe it is too early in the day for sleep. If you want to read or write before bed, try using a small book light. Now that blue lights can keep you awake, red ones are a great choice.
If you can, keep noise in and around your room the lowest at night. If you have an old clock that ticks loudly and keeps you awake, replace it with a silent one. If you share your home with anyone else, request that they keep noises like talking, music, or TV shows at the lowest while you are trying to sleep. It is difficult to fall asleep if you live near a busy road or hear other boring sounds after bedtime. You could get a white noise machine or play recordings of nature sounds, like waves or whales’ singing. You could also listen to soft, relaxing music.
Read a book in bed if you have difficulty in falling asleep. Staying in bed doing nothing when you’re having trouble falling asleep may keep you wide awake. While reading in bed may be slightly harmful to your eyes, it can distract (分散) you from your thoughts and help you feel sleepy. But remember to read from a print book rather than something with a screen. The light from electronic screens can keep you awake.
Lowering your body temperature helps you sleep, so set the room temperature between 15.5℃-21℃ could do the trick.
12. What color book light should you choose to read before bed
A. Red. B. Blue.
C. White. D. Orange.
13. What is the author’s attitude towards reading in bed
A. Doubtful. B. Worried.
C. Favorable. D. Uncaring.
14. What can we inferred from the text
A. Reading on cellphones sometimes helps you fall asleep.
B. The lower your temperature while sleeping is, the better.
C. Bright lights are better for your reading before going to bed.
D. Playing recordings like birds’ singing can improve your sleep.
15. How does the author organize the text
A. By giving examples. B. By asking questions.
C. By offering suggestions. D. By listing research results.

I could hear footsteps (脚步声) following me I stopped and turned to see who it was. The dark street light did not allow me to see far and it looked like I was alone. I could not hear anything other than my heart beating wildly. Was it my imagination
I was returning home after a late music lesson. My parents were attending a meeting so I had to get home on my own. The distance from my music teacher’s house to my home was just 500 meters. The street was darker than I had expected but I was not very worried about the short walk home. I was busy thinking about my upcoming music exam when I became aware that I was being followed.
I continued on my way, keeping an eye out for any sounds. There it was again, the sound of someone walking behind me. Fear came over me and I hurried on. My house was just around the corner. I decided to run. To my surprise, the person following me began to run too. I looked behind me and saw a dark figure catching up with me. Suddenly, I ran into a dustbin by the road and fell over.
I felt a hand catch hold of my arm and I screamed loudly in fear. The hand let go of my arm and I pushed myself off the ground quickly, getting ready to run again. It was at that moment that I found myself looking at a young lady dressed in a dark sports suit. It looked like she had been scared by my reaction.
The next moment, there was a lot of footsteps coming from the dark and I could hear someone calling my name. To my surprise, a few seconds later my parents appeared together with a few people who were my neighbors.
