C. Children.

A. 10.
B. 14.

B. To show strength.
C. To break a record.
【答案】18. C 19. C 20. A
【解析】
【原文】When I was a little boy, my grandfather told me that our family came to America from Spain. His favorite thing to talk about was a traditional event called “the human tower”. It's a physical challenge that's done during the annual festivals around Barcelona. The goal of the event is to build up layers of people to try and make a high tower. The people who are on the bottom are often the largest, so that they can hold everyone else. Participants stand on each other's shoulders, so it's important to think about who goes on each level. Men, women and kids all participate in building the tower, so there are many different ways to build. The event involves everyone in the area, too. Anyone who is not involved in building the tower has an important job, though. The audience all crowd around the tower and hold up their hands to try and break the fall of any person who loses their balance. This stops anyone in the tower from getting hurt. Traditionally, the human tower has four people on each level. The world record for the largest human tower had 10 levels, but the record is not why people do it. The point is to bring the community together.
第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分 45分）
第一节（共13小题；每小题2.5分，满分32.5分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Try one of these amazing destinations on your next vacation.
Mallorca
On the popular Spanish island of Mallorca, farmhouse inns focus more on providing isolation and quietness than offering hands-on farming experiences. With millions of visitors staying on the beaches of Mallorca and the other Balearic Islands each summer, a little bit of isolation is a good thing for aloneness-seeking travelers. Mainly located in the hills of inland Mallorca, these inns range from rustic century-old farmhouses to luxury(奢侈的) villas with spas and swimming pools.
Hawaii
People who don't want to dig out their passport but still want their farm adventure can head to the island of Hawaii. The 50th state talks much about the well-developed farm tourism industry that can hold people with different interests. Agritourism choices range from visiting coffee plantations(种植园) in the Big Island's Kona region to exploring the plantations on Maui to staying on farms on the easily reachable island of Oahu.
California
California is one of the best places in the U. S. to enjoy a farm-stay, thanks to the diversity of crops and farms. Small family farms and large farms offer a more hands-on approach to agritourism. Many of them teach small-scale farming techniques and even offer strategies for organic growing. The University of California system, one of the largest state-run higher education systems in the U.S., has a small-farm program that helps growers create agritourism businesses.
Philippine Islands
With diverse conditions on different islands, the Philippine Islands are ideal places for visiting multiple agritourism sites or focusing on one product. Tourists can visit a huge pineapple plantation for a taste of large-scale agriculture, or they could focus on smaller operations such as bee farms, and even small plantations that specialize in growing tropical produce such as dragon fruit.
21. What kind of people will choose to go to Mallorca
A. Those who prefer peace of mind.
B. Those who like lying on the beach.
C. Those who enjoy the luxury of tourism.
D. Those who want to experience farming.
22. What can people do on the Philippine Islands
A. Live in farmhouses.
B. Visit plantations.
C. Learn farming techniques.
D Take part in a farm program.
23. What are the four places in the text famous for
A. Locations.
B. Environments.
C. Local products.
D. Tourism features.
【答案】21. A 22. B 23. D
【解析】

I truly thought that I might die that day. Had I not seen three bears and a few wolves over the last couple of days near the road, I might have just lain down and called it quits. What in the world was I thinking, dragging my bike up to Yellowstone and thinking I could ride from West Yellowstone to Old Faithful in the snow No less!
I had planned this trip for more than two months, and I wasn't about to give up so easily. The first few miles were beautiful. Ten miles in, I started sucking wind. Fifteen miles and my legs felt like they were made of lead. By twenty miles, my lungs were burning and felt like there was nothing left in the tank. That was when I turned around and saw my husband and three children cheering me on in the van behind me. I knew I couldn't quit because I tell my children all the time that just because something is hard doesn't mean that you stop doing it. I had to live what I'd been preaching(说教). That thought got me up that mountain and to the end of the ride.
The importance of that ride was apparent after only a week. My eight-year-old daughter Emalee wanted to ride in a twelve-mile charity ride. That day was cold as well. She was the youngest rider. About four miles into the ride, she started feeling cold. The chill(寒冷)was making her muscles cramp a little and she began to struggle. By six miles, she had tears running down her face. It broke my heart to see her suffering like that.I told her that she didn't have to finish. She said that she wouldn't quit. I told her how I had wanted to quit the week before, but perseverance had gotten me to the end and I knew she could do it, too.
The look on her face as she pulled into the finish was priceless. She threw her arms around me and said, “You didn't quit, Mommy, so neither did I.”
24. What motivated the author to finish her ride
A. Her family's encouragement.
B. Her own instruction for children.
C. The beautiful scenery and weather.
D. The careful and thorough preparation.
25. By describing the conditions Emalee met, the author wanted to________.
A. show her guilt for her daughter
B. prove that riding is a tough task
C. persuade her daughter to give up
D. indicate she was proud of Emalee
26. What does the author want to tell us according to the story
A. Never say die.
B. Do nothing by halves.
C. Children are what the mothers are.
D. Every mother's child is handsome.
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. C
【解析】

I knew I couldn't quit because I tell my children all the time that just because something is hard doesn't mean that you stop doing it. I had to live what I'd been preaching.”（就在这时，我转过身来，看到丈夫和三个孩子在我身后的面包车里为我加油。 我知道我不能放弃，因为我一直告诉我的孩子，事情很难并不意味着你会停止做它。 我不得不按照我一直以来所宣扬的方式生活）可知，作者对孩子的教导激励她完成她的骑行。故选B项。
【25题详解】

I told her how I had wanted to quit the week before, but perseverance had gotten me to the end and I knew she could do it, too.”（骑行了大约四英里后，她开始感到冷。寒冷使她的肌肉有点抽筋，她开始挣扎。走了六英里，她已经泪流满面。看到她那样受苦，我的心都碎了。 我跟她说了她不用骑完。 她说她不会放弃的。 我告诉她一周前我是如何想放弃的，但毅力让我坚持到最后，我知道她也能做到）可推知，作者描述她的女儿Emalee遇见的困境，想要表示她为Emalee感到骄傲。故选D项。
【26题详解】

C
It's just before l pm and hungry guests are starting to emerge out onto the wooden floor at the back of the Victoria Falls Safari Lodge in Zimbabwe. A few have already settled in for lunch, drinking beer and enjoying their sandwiches and salads in the sunshine. It's a normal setting until you look up. Overhead, the sky is filled with several hundred vultures (秃鹭).
They too have arrived for their midday snack. Every day the team at this hotel places last night's leftover meat out for the vultures to eat. They call it the "Vulture Restaurant" and it's a vital part of protecting these birds, who have become some of the most endangered species in Africa.
In Zimbabwe, where illegal hunting of elephants and rhinos is a major issue, poisoning poses a significant threat to the birds. "In recent years hunters have realized they can use poison to kill animals. It's effective because it's silent and therefore doesn't attract much attention.when the vultures eat the bodies of the dead animals they die too," says Roger Parry, Wildlife Manager at the Victoria Falls Wildlife Trust.
The Vulture Restaurant initiative is part feeding programme, part education programme. By attracting the birds to the Vulture Restaurant every day the team can ensure they're regularly getting a safe meal, and while the birds are there they can educate tourists from all over the world about these creatures.
“Lunch” is served by Moses Garira. He has the unenviable task of wandering out into the middle of the clearing with a box full of meat, dropping the contents onto the ground and running for his life as the vultures fly downward suddenly for their food. No one, surely, would volunteer for this role, but Garira rather enjoys it. Back in the safety of the viewing seats, he tells the onlookers about the importance of vultures. "They're hugely important in terms of their role of cleaning up the bodies of dead animals," says Garira. "Notably, they're safely able to digest bacteria like anthrax. Without vultures, there'd be a lot more disease in the world."
27. What's the biggest threat vultures facing in Zimbabwe
A. Overhunting.
B. Unsafe food.
C. Loss of habitat.
D. A bird disease.
28. What would others think of Garira's job
A. Scary.
B. Relaxing.
C. Well-paid.
D. Time-consuming
29. What do Garira's words mean
A. Birds are human's best friends.
B. People know little about vultures.
C. Vultures are environmentally favorable.
D. Vultures are in urgent need of protection.
【答案】27. B 28. A 29. C
【解析】
【分析】本文为一篇说明文。在津巴布韦，非法捕猎大象和犀牛是一个主要问题，毒杀对鸟类构成了严重威胁，为了保护这些秃鹫不误食不安全的食物，一些志愿者会进行定时定点喂食，来保护濒临灭绝的秃鹫。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段关键句“In Zimbabwe, where illegal hunting of elephants and rhinos is a major issue, poisoning poses a significant threat to the birds. (在津巴布韦，非法捕猎大象和犀牛是一个主要问题，毒杀对鸟类构成了严重威胁)”及“"In recent years hunters have realized they can use poison to kill animals. It's effective because it's silent and therefore doesn't attract much attention.when the vultures eat the bodies of the dead animals they die too," says Roger Parry, Wildlife Manager at the Victoria Falls Wildlife Trust. (“近年来，猎人意识到他们可以用毒药杀死动物。它之所以有效，是因为它是无声的，因此不会引起太多注意。 当秃鹫吃了动物的尸体，它们也会死去，”维多利亚瀑布野生动物信托基金的野生动物经理罗杰·帕里说)”可知，不安全的食物是津巴布韦的秃鹫面临的最大的威胁。故选B项。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段关键句“He has the unenviable task of wandering out into the middle of the clearing with a box full of meat, dropping the contents onto the ground and running for his life as the vultures fly downward suddenly for their food. No one, surely, would volunteer for this role, but Garira rather enjoys it.(他有一项不值得羡慕的任务：拿着一个装满肉的盒子游荡到空地中央，把里面的东西扔到地上，然后逃命，因为秃鹫会突然飞下来觅食。当然，没有人会自愿扮演这个角色，但Garira很喜欢这个角色)”可推知，其他人会认为Garira的工作很吓人、很危险。故选A项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段Garira说的话“"They're hugely important in terms of their role of cleaning up the bodies of dead animals," says Garira. "Notably, they're safely able to digest bacteria like anthrax. Without vultures, there'd be a lot more disease in the world."(“就清理动物尸体的作用而言，它们非常重要，”加里拉说。“值得注意的是，它们能够安全地消化炭疽菌等细菌。如果没有秃鹫，世界上将会有更多的疾病。” )”可推知，秃鹫对环境很有利。故选C项。
D
As COVID-19 spread through Japan last spring, a doctor despaired. What shocked him was not the pace of infection, or a lack of protective equipment, but the old systems used to record test results and so track the course of the epidemic. “Even with coronavirus, we're handwriting and faxing,” he complained on Twitter.
Japan has excellent health care. Life expectancy at birth is 85 years, the highest in the world. But doctors have been slow to embrace(欣然接受) the efficiencies of information technology, despite Japan's reputation for medical technology. The OECD ranks it last among its members for its management and use of data in health care. A commission of experts convened(召集) by the Asia-Pacific Initiative, a think-tank in Tokyo, declared Japan's response to COVID-19 a “digital defeat”。
But the coronavirus is also providing a strong motive for change. The new prime minister, Suga Yoshihide, has made digitising Japan the centerpiece of his economic agenda. The potential benefits are especially big in health care, because costs are rising as the population ages. Spending on health accounted for 11% of GDP last year, up from 7% in 2000.
In 2015, the government allowed telemedicine to treat a few conditions, but with less compensation and more paperwork. Predictably, it did not takeoff: less than 1% of all medical institutions offered online consultations in 2018. But many restrictions on telemedicine have been suspended because of the pandemic, sending patients and doctors to their screens.
The situation "changed radically", says Hara Seigo, the boss of a telemedicine firm called MICIN, which saw monthly registrations jump ten-fold. Government surveys show the share of institutions using telemedicine has risen to nearly 15% this year.
Mr Toyoda, who gave up a career in brain surgery to work in digital health care, hopes that wider adoption of telemedicine will also promote the use of electronic medical records. Japan's medical system is strikingly paper-based. Only 42% of clinics have digitized their data on patients. Linking and analyzing those data could help to reduce costs. Unnecessary procedures would be easier to avoid. The effectiveness of treatments could be measured.
For Koizumi Keigo, a doctor who serves two remote islands in Mie prefecture, the expansion of telemedicine has been a huge blessing. Previously, when he was visiting one of the islands, patients on the other were left without a supervising physician. This year he began keeping tabs(密切注意) over video chat. Nurses hold up an iPad at patients' bedsides, while Bluetooth devices monitor blood pressure. That is enough to give him a sense of how his charges are doing. Now, he says, "even the grandmas would like to see more doctors go online".
30. Why does the author mention the Japanese doctor in Paragraph 1
A. To show the serious consequences of COVID-19.
B. To point out improper use of data in health care.
C. To stress the importance of protective equipment.
D. To introduce the problem in Japan's medical system.
31. What does the underlined word "suspended" in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Tightened.
B. Paused.
C. Placed.
D. Relaxed.
32. What can electronic medical records help to do
A. To make medical treatments more effective.
B. To make the medical system more profitable.
C. To help patients keep in touch with their doctors.
D. To save the money spent on medical treatments.
33. What is the purpose of the last paragraph
A. To show how telemedicine actually works in Japan.
B. To explain why telemedicine is on the rise in Japan.
C. To illustrate how telemedicine really benefits patients.
D. To show how Japanese doctors respond to telemedicine.
【答案】30. D 31. B 32. D 33. C
【解析】
【分析】本文为一篇说明文。医疗保健系统较佳的日本仍然拥有较为落后的系统来记录检测结果和跟踪疫情进程，电子数据记录医疗结果将能大大造福医护人士和患者，节约医疗成本。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段关键句“What shocked him was not the pace of infection, or a lack of protective equipment, but the old systems used to record test results and so track the course of the epidemic. ”（令他震惊的不是感染的速度，也不是防护设备的缺乏，而是用来记录检测结果和跟踪疫情进程的旧系统。）及第二段关键句“But doctors have been slow to embrace the efficiencies of information technology, despite Japan's reputation for medical technology. ”（尽管日本在医疗技术上享有盛誉，但医生们在接受信息技术的效率方面一直进展缓慢。）可知，作者第一段提及日本医生是为了介绍日本医疗系统的问题。故选D项。
【31题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第四段关键句“But many restrictions on telemedicine have been suspended because of the pandemic, sending patients and doctors to their screens.”（但由于大流行，对远程医疗的许多限制已经___，患者和医生不得不盯着屏幕。）可知，根据because of the pandemic可知，由于传染病的流行，限制被暂停。故选B项。
【32题详解】

第二节（满分25分）
75. 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。
It was somewhere between spring and summer my mom and I were driving through the countryside. Back then I was 13 years old and always felt unhappy with Mom. But little did I know that this trip was going to be a special one.
A pot of flowers sat in the back seat, whose heavenly scent filled the car. Suddenly, in the middle of nowhere, my mom pulled over. “What are you doing？” I cried, fearing that the car had broken down and we’d be stuck there, so far from home. But that wasn’t the case. My mom hopped out (快速跳出来) of the car, grabbing the flowers from the back seat. “It’ll just be a minute，” she called back through the open windows.
My eyes impatiently skimmed the edge of the road before settling on a little sign showing that it was a nursing home. I looked back to the building, somewhat annoyed, as my mom reappeared—empty-handed.
Before she started the car, curiosity drove me to ask, “Do you know someone there？” She shook her head. “Then what did you do with the flowers？” She smiled slightly, “I gave them to the receptionist(前台接待员).” “What？” She laughed at my confusion. “I told the receptionist to give the flowers to whoever needed them, especially who hasn’t gotten any in a while.”
I kept silent for a moment. Not long after we continued our driving, I spoke again, “Did you leave your name ”To this she answered instantly, “No. Leaving flowers there for someone who will appreciate them makes me feel good, which is enough of a thank for me.”
Suddenly, still thinking about Mom’s deeds, I heard something burst loudly. It was our car that broke down! Nothing could be worse, because neither my mom nor I understood how to repair it, and we didn’t know where the garage was. It also seemed impossible to wait for any passer-by, since we had seen so few along the way.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在相应的位置作答。
Paragraph 1：
We were worrying about what could be done._____________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2：
As we drove along, a flower shop came into sight on the road.______________ __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1：We_were_worrying_about_what_could_be_done. But after waiting in vain for a considerable time, Mom and I decided to walk back the road to the nursing home and seek help. God knows how far we had driven! When we arrived, the receptionist was surprised, but warmly helped us contact the garage. There, the old men who had received the flowers were excited to meet us, talking about how great that day was. It amazed us what random actions of kindness could mean to the people who received it. While we were laughing and talking merrily, the garage got our car repaired.
Paragraph 2：As_we_drove_along,_a_flower_shop_came_into_sight_on_the_road. I paced quickly into the flower shop, where a bunch of flowers glowing red in full bloom caught my eye. Having witnessed the effect of kindness, I decided to send Mom the sweet flowers. Soon, the heavenly scent filled the car again. Mom tried to conceal her excitement, but the glittering tears failed her. Through this trip, I discovered that, despite my occasional anger towards her, I actually felt proud of her. This was the trip of my life.

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Try one of these amazing destinations on your next vacation.
Mallorca
On the popular Spanish island of Mallorca, farmhouse inns focus more on providing isolation and quietness than offering hands-on farming experiences. With millions of visitors staying on the beaches of Mallorca and the other Balearic Islands each summer, a little bit of isolation is a good thing for aloneness-seeking travelers. Mainly located in the hills of inland Mallorca, these inns range from rustic century-old farmhouses to luxury(奢侈的) villas with spas and swimming pools.
Hawaii
People who don't want to dig out their passport but still want their farm adventure can head to the island of Hawaii. The 50th state talks much about the well-developed farm tourism industry that can hold people with different interests. Agritourism choices range from visiting coffee plantations(种植园) in the Big Island's Kona region to exploring the plantations on Maui to staying on farms on the easily reachable island of Oahu.
California
California is one of the best places in the U. S. to enjoy a farm-stay, thanks to the diversity of crops and farms. Small family farms and large farms offer a more hands-on approach to agritourism. Many of them teach small-scale farming techniques and even offer strategies for organic growing. The University of California system, one of the largest state-run higher education systems in the U.S., has a small-farm program that helps growers create agritourism businesses.
Philippine Islands
With diverse conditions on different islands, the Philippine Islands are ideal places for visiting multiple agritourism sites or focusing on one product. Tourists can visit a huge pineapple plantation for a taste of large-scale agriculture, or they could focus on smaller operations such as bee farms, and even small plantations that specialize in growing tropical produce such as dragon fruit.
21. What kind of people will choose to go to Mallorca
A Those who prefer peace of mind.
B. Those who like lying on the beach.
C. Those who enjoy the luxury of tourism.
D. Those who want to experience farming.
22. What can people do on the Philippine Islands
A. Live in farmhouses.
B. Visit plantations.
C. Learn farming techniques.
D. Take part in a farm program.
23. What are the four places in the text famous for
A. Locations.
B. Environments.
C. Local products.
D. Tourism features.
B
I truly thought that I might die that day. Had I not seen three bears and a few wolves over the last couple of days near the road, I might have just lain down and called it quits. What in the world was I thinking, dragging my bike up to Yellowstone and thinking I could ride from West Yellowstone to Old Faithful in the snow No less!
I had planned this trip for more than two months, and I wasn't about to give up so easily. The first few miles were beautiful. Ten miles in, I started sucking wind. Fifteen miles and my legs felt like they were made of lead. By twenty miles, my lungs were burning and felt like there was nothing left in the tank. That was when I turned around and saw my husband and three children cheering me on in the van behind me. I knew I couldn't quit because I tell my children all the time that just because something is hard doesn't mean that you stop doing it. I had to live what I'd been preaching(说教). That thought got me up that mountain and to the end of the ride.
The importance of that ride was apparent after only a week. My eight-year-old daughter Emalee wanted to ride in a twelve-mile charity ride. That day was cold as well. She was the youngest rider. About four miles into the ride, she started feeling cold. The chill(寒冷)was making her muscles cramp a little and she began to struggle. By six miles, she had tears running down her face. It broke my heart to see her suffering like that.I told her that she didn't have to finish. She said that she wouldn't quit. I told her how I had wanted to quit the week before, but perseverance had gotten me to the end and I knew she could do it, too.
The look on her face as she pulled into the finish was priceless. She threw her arms around me and said, “You didn't quit, Mommy, so neither did I.”
24. What motivated the author to finish her ride
A. Her family's encouragement.
B. Her own instruction for children.
C. The beautiful scenery and weather.
D. The careful and thorough preparation.
25. By describing the conditions Emalee met, the author wanted to________.
A. show her guilt for her daughter
B. prove that riding is a tough task
C. persuade her daughter to give up
D. indicate she was proud of Emalee
26. What does the author want to tell us according to the story
A Never say die.
B. Do nothing by halves.
C. Children are what the mothers are.
D. Every mother's child is handsome.
C
It's just before l pm and hungry guests are starting to emerge out onto the wooden floor at the back of the Victoria Falls Safari Lodge in Zimbabwe. A few have already settled in for lunch, drinking beer and enjoying their sandwiches and salads in the sunshine. It's a normal setting until you look up. Overhead, the sky is filled with several hundred vultures (秃鹭).
They too have arrived for their midday snack. Every day the team at this hotel places last night's leftover meat out for the vultures to eat. They call it the "Vulture Restaurant" and it's a vital part of protecting these birds, who have become some of the most endangered species in Africa.
In Zimbabwe, where illegal hunting of elephants and rhinos is a major issue, poisoning poses a significant threat to the birds. "In recent years hunters have realized they can use poison to kill animals. It's effective because it's silent and therefore doesn't attract much attention.when the vultures eat the bodies of the dead animals they die too," says Roger Parry, Wildlife Manager at the Victoria Falls Wildlife Trust.
The Vulture Restaurant initiative is part feeding programme, part education programme. By attracting the birds to the Vulture Restaurant every day the team can ensure they're regularly getting a safe meal, and while the birds are there they can educate tourists from all over the world about these creatures.
“Lunch” is served by Moses Garira. He has the unenviable task of wandering out into the middle of the clearing with a box full of meat, dropping the contents onto the ground and running for his life as the vultures fly downward suddenly for their food. No one, surely, would volunteer for this role, but Garira rather enjoys it. Back in the safety of the viewing seats, he tells the onlookers about the importance of vultures. "They're hugely important in terms of their role of cleaning up the bodies of dead animals," says Garira. "Notably, they're safely able to digest bacteria like anthrax. Without vultures, there'd be a lot more disease in the world."
27. What's the biggest threat vultures facing in Zimbabwe
A. Overhunting.
B. Unsafe food.
C. Loss of habitat.
D. A bird disease.
28. What would others think of Garira's job
A. Scary.
B. Relaxing.
C. Well-paid.
D. Time-consuming
29. What do Garira's words mean
A. Birds are human's best friends.
B. People know little about vultures.
C. Vultures are environmentally favorable.
D. Vultures are in urgent need of protection.
D
As COVID-19 spread through Japan last spring, a doctor despaired. What shocked him was not the pace of infection, or a lack of protective equipment, but the old systems used to record test results and so track the course of the epidemic. “Even with coronavirus, we're handwriting and faxing,” he complained on Twitter.
Japan has excellent health care. Life expectancy at birth is 85 years, the highest in the world. But doctors have been slow to embrace(欣然接受) the efficiencies of information technology, despite Japan's reputation for medical technology. The OECD ranks it last among its members for its management and use of data in health care. A commission of experts convened(召集) by the Asia-Pacific Initiative, a think-tank in Tokyo, declared Japan's response to COVID-19 a “digital defeat”。
But the coronavirus is also providing a strong motive for change. The new prime minister, Suga Yoshihide, has made digitising Japan the centerpiece of his economic agenda. The potential benefits are especially big in health care, because costs are rising as the population ages. Spending on health accounted for 11% of GDP last year, up from 7% in 2000.
In 2015, the government allowed telemedicine to treat a few conditions, but with less compensation and more paperwork. Predictably, it did not takeoff: less than 1% of all medical institutions offered online consultations in 2018. But many restrictions on telemedicine have been suspended because of the pandemic, sending patients and doctors to their screens.
The situation "changed radically", says Hara Seigo, the boss of a telemedicine firm called MICIN, which saw monthly registrations jump ten-fold. Government surveys show the share of institutions using telemedicine has risen to nearly 15% this year.
Mr Toyoda, who gave up a career in brain surgery to work in digital health care, hopes that wider adoption of telemedicine will also promote the use of electronic medical records. Japan's medical system is strikingly paper-based. Only 42% of clinics have digitized their data on patients. Linking and analyzing those data could help to reduce costs. Unnecessary procedures would be easier to avoid. The effectiveness of treatments could be measured.
For Koizumi Keigo, a doctor who serves two remote islands in Mie prefecture, the expansion of telemedicine has been a huge blessing. Previously, when he was visiting one of the islands, patients on the other were left without a supervising physician. This year he began keeping tabs(密切注意) over video chat. Nurses hold up an iPad at patients' bedsides, while Bluetooth devices monitor blood pressure. That is enough to give him a sense of how his charges are doing. Now, he says, "even the grandmas would like to see more doctors go online".
30. Why does the author mention the Japanese doctor in Paragraph 1
A. To show the serious consequences of COVID-19.
B. To point out improper use of data in health care.
C. To stress the importance of protective equipment.
D. To introduce the problem in Japan's medical system.
31. What does the underlined word "suspended" in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Tightened.
B. Paused.
C. Placed.
D. Relaxed.
32. What can electronic medical records help to do
A. To make medical treatments more effective.
B. To make the medical system more profitable.
C. To help patients keep in touch with their doctors.
D. To save the money spent on medical treatments.
33. What is the purpose of the last paragraph
A To show how telemedicine actually works in Japan.
B. To explain why telemedicine is on the rise in Japan.
C. To illustrate how telemedicine really benefits patients.
D. To show how Japanese doctors respond to telemedicine.

75. 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。
It was somewhere between spring and summer my mom and I were driving through the countryside. Back then I was 13 years old and always felt unhappy with Mom. But little did I know that this trip was going to be a special one.
A pot of flowers sat in the back seat, whose heavenly scent filled the car. Suddenly, in the middle of nowhere, my mom pulled over. “What are you doing？” I cried, fearing that the car had broken down and we’d be stuck there, so far from home. But that wasn’t the case. My mom hopped out (快速跳出来) of the car, grabbing the flowers from the back seat. “It’ll just be a minute，” she called back through the open windows.
My eyes impatiently skimmed the edge of the road before settling on a little sign showing that it was a nursing home. I looked back to the building, somewhat annoyed, as my mom reappeared—empty-handed.
Before she started the car, curiosity drove me to ask, “Do you know someone there？” She shook her head. “Then what did you do with the flowers？” She smiled slightly, “I gave them to the receptionist(前台接待员).” “What？” She laughed at my confusion. “I told the receptionist to give the flowers to whoever needed them, especially who hasn’t gotten any in a while.”
I kept silent for a moment. Not long after we continued our driving, I spoke again, “Did you leave your name ”To this she answered instantly, “No. Leaving flowers there for someone who will appreciate them makes me feel good, which is enough of a thank for me.”
Suddenly, still thinking about Mom’s deeds, I heard something burst loudly. It was our car that broke down! Nothing could be worse, because neither my mom nor I understood how to repair it, and we didn’t know where the garage was. It also seemed impossible to wait for any passer-by, since we had seen so few along the way.
