“My P.E. teacher taught me maths.” It has been a common joke for years but when a P.E. teacher applied for the head-teacher job, many parents worried that “the joke could come true”. Some parents asked, “Does the P.E. teacher know maths and English If not, how is he supposed to tutor the students ” But there were still parents who believed P.E. teachers had more time to discipline the students since they didn’t have many classes.
This concern is actually a “subject bias”, that is, choosing a P.E. teacher as the head-teacher is not good for the students’ grades since he doesn’t know Chinese, maths, or English. It is acceptable for Chinese teachers, maths teachers and English teachers to be head-teachers because these subjects are important to entrance exams and scores. Such a concern reflects parents’ anxiety in the current educational environment, which tends to link the head-teacher’s responsible subject with the facts whether the school cares about the class and the children’s performances in the subject.
Many people care about their kids’ academic performances only. They don’t care about their kids’ P.E. performance at all. Even if kids have P.E. classes, parents care little. P.E. teachers are in humble position and their classes are often occupied by other teachers. Of course, if students, P.E. performance is related to grades and entrance exams, parents won’t mind “a P.E. teacher being the head-teacher”.
At the moment, P.E. is gradually included in entrance exams.
In terms of high school entrance examination, Guangzhou will launch a new high school entrance exam which includes P.E. performance and Health examination in 2021, raising the score to 70 points.
In terms of the college entrance examination, universities having the right of independent enrollments added P.E. tests to their entrance exams in 2019. This practice is seen as an important signal that the assessment of physical fitness and athletic ability, which are important aspects of a student’s overall quality, may be included in the college entrance examination in the future.
We hope that it’s a trend for P.E. teachers, music teachers and art teachers to become head-teachers.
4. By saying “My P.E. teacher taught me maths”, what does the author intend to show us
A. It is just a joke that seldom happened in reality.
B. P.E. teachers hardly assist students in maths.
C. P.E. teachers are good at teaching maths..
D. Parents doubt the ability of P.E. teacher.
5. We can infer from paragraph 2 that a P.E. teacher .
A. is of little benefit for students’ academic performance
B. is humbler than Chinese, math or English teachers
C. reflects whether the school cares about the class
D. gets unfairly judged due to the current educational system
6. Why does Guangzhou raise proportion of P.E. performance in high school entrance examination
A. To raise students’ awareness of physical health.
B. To call on parents to pay attention to P.E. teachers.
C. To test the overall ability of high school students.
D. To make P.E. teachers equal with other teachers.
7 What opinion does the author hold towards P.E. teachers working as head-teachers
A. Neutral. B. Unexpected.
C. Supportive. D. Critical.
C
Conducting interviews for news stories is an important skill for any journalist. To start, do as much research as you can and prepare a list of questions to ask. Once the interview starts, try to develop a rapport(融洽的关系) with your "source"—anyone a journalist interviews, but don't waste your time. If your source starts to talk about things that are clearly of no use to you, don't be afraid to gently but firmly turn the conversation back to the topic at hand.
It's an old debate among journalists: Which works better when interviewing a source, taking notes (the old-fashioned way) or using a cassette or digital voice recorder Both have their advantages and disadvantages. A reporter's notebook and a pen or pencil are the easy-to-use, time-honored tools of the interviewing trade, while recorders enable you to get everything someone says word for word. Which works better It depends on what kind of story you're doing.
Many beginning reporters complain that with a notepad and pen, they can never take down everything a source says in an interview. But you don't have to note everything down. Keep in mind that you're probably not going to use everything they say in your story. So don't worry if you let slip a few things.
So you've done a long interview with a source, you have pages of notes, and you're ready to write. But chances are you'll only be able to choose a few quotes from that information collected directly from the source. Which ones should you use Reporters often talk about using only "good" quotes for their stories, but what does this mean Broadly speaking, when someone says something interesting, and says it in an interesting way, that can make a good quote.
8. What is a journalist advised to do during an interview
A. Be gentle with the source. B. Carry on a long conversation.
C. Make the conversation interesting. D. Prevent the conversation being off-topic.
9. What do the underlined words "let slip" in Paragraph 3 mean
A. give away B. leave out C. get rid of D. take up
10. What is considered as a good quote for a reporter
A. A direct quote. B. An important point of view.
C. A piece of basic information. D. Something funny a source says interestingly.
11. What is the text mainly about
A. The job of a journalist. B. The process of interviewing.
C. Some facts about interviewing. D. The relationship between a journalist and a source.
D
A cheap printed sensor could transmit wildfire warnings. Wildfires have recently destroyed regions across the world, and their gravity is increasing. Hoping to reduce harm, researchers led by Yapei Wang, a Chinese chemist of Renmin University, say they have developed an inexpensive sensor to detect such fires earlier with less effort.
Current detection methods rely heavily on human watchfulness, which can delay an effective response. Most wildfires are reported by the general public, and other alerts come from routine foot patrols and watchtower observers. Passing planes and satellites also occasionally spot something, but “the fire first appears on the ground," Wang says. “ When you see the fire from the sky, it is too late. ”
The team says its new sensor can be placed near tree trunks' bases and send a wireless signal to a nearby receiver if there is a dramatic temperature increase. That heat also powers the sensor itself, without replacing batteries. The team printed the substances onto ordinary paper to create a sensor for just $ 0.40.
But improving coordination among the different agencies involved in firefighting is even more crucial to address, says Graham Kent, an earthquake expert at the University of Nevada, Reno, who was not part of the study. Kent is director of ALERTWildfire, a network that uses cameras and crowd sourcing to watch for fires in California, Nevada and Oregon. “The whole way that you respond to a fire until it's put out is like a ballet," he says. “You'd have to choreograph (设计) it just so, with resources precisely used at the right time and place and in the right order from detection to confirmation to assignment to extinguishment (熄灭).Fire detection is just step one.
Wang says his team's next steps are to extend the device's signal range beyond the current 100 meters which can limit practical use, and to develop a protective shield for it. The transmitter's effectiveness, he notes, will also need to be examined in the field ahead.
12. What does the underlined word “gravity” in paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Pull. B. Extinction.
C. Popularity. D. Severity.
13. What do we know about the sensor
A. Its price remains high.
B. Its batteries are replaceable.
C. It can detect fires earlier and easier.
D. It can reduce firefighters' pain.
14. What does Kent mean in paragraph 4
A. Firefighting is easy but crucial.
B. Fire detection resources are rich.
C. Putting out a fire is an orderly activity.
D. Technology is the key to extinguishing a fire.
15. What's the plan for the new sensor according to Wang
A. Improving and testing it.
B. Limiting its use and transmission.
C. Examing and reducing its signal range.
D. Getting it on the market ahead of time.
第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)
Personal development doesn't just happen. ___16___ Self-development requires hard work devotion and an ever-growing skill. So，what new skills do you need to power forward
On your journey toward your best self, you need to set goals. The key is balance : If your goals are too high, you'll get discouraged when you fall short. ___17___ The better approach is to think in milestones. If you want to be a novelist, don't set a goal to finish a book in a week. Focus on getting a couple of pages done each day, or on writing a chapter each week. This measurable progress is more sustainable and fulfilling.
___18___ To keep going when times are tough, you have to learn how to manage your stress levels. If light walks help you keep your head on straight, schedule one for your lunch period every day. If you need to take Sundays off to recharge for the next week, it's more than acceptable to do so.
Organization is a skill that comes more naturally to some people than others. If you're a naturally messy person, start small. Otherwise, you'll be at a loss. ___19___ Clean up your bedroom or your car. If physical cleaning is stressful, start by cutting out files from your computer. Believe it or not, one clean space can set the tone for the rest of your life.
On the road of personal development, you'll run into some barriers. Nobody but you can remove these from your path. ___20___ Perhaps anxiety is keeping you from doing your best work. Instead of struggling through it, quietly take a mental health day.
A. Personal growth needs stress management.
B. Focus on the places where you spend the most time.
C. You can't expect to wake up the next day with new skills.
D. Don't let personal challenges stand in the way of your growth.
E. That's why problem solving is a vital skill for self-development.
F. You absolutely don't need to disclose why you're taking a sick day.
G. Start too small, and you'll become satisfied with your progress too early.

【1题详解】
B 细节理解题。从第二段“Both of the summer camps will run from the beginning of July to the end of August.”（两个夏令营都将从7月初到8月底举行。）可以看出工作时间大约为八个星期，故选B。
【2题详解】

【点睛】广告布告类阅读解题技巧：
阅读这类文章时，也应该在整体把握文章结构的前提下，主要注意细节信息。细节题题干都是相应原文的变形(如同义改写、词性转换等)，因此要找到答案一定要找到题干在原文中的出处，再把原文和选项相比较。做题时，根据所提问题用寻读、跳读的方法可达到事半功倍的效果。同时，在阅读时也要特别注意文中以粗体、大写、下划线等方式加以提示的文字，因为这很有可能是文章的核心或某一部分内容的概括。具体答题策略如下：
1、先题后文：
先读试题，了解考点；明确目的，快速捕捉，获取信息。
2、题干定向：
根据题干关键词到文中定位答案范围，按照题目顺序依次而下：问题与材料相同：对号入座；问题与原文相同：同义替换、归纳事实等。比如第25小题，题干How long will a teacher work for the summer camps 一个老师一次夏令营要工作多久？根据the beginning of July to the end of August.可知从7月开始八月结束，是两个月，八周，并没有超过两个月，故选B
3、生词模糊：
遇到生词；如无关答题，直接跳过；涉及答题，则根据语境、构词法等猜词。
4、信息补全：
对于影响理解的省略句，可根据语境，将其补全。
考点：广告布告类阅读
B
“My P.E. teacher taught me maths.” It has been a common joke for years but when a P.E. teacher applied for the head-teacher job, many parents worried that “the joke could come true”. Some parents asked, “Does the P.E. teacher know maths and English If not, how is he supposed to tutor the students ” But there were still parents who believed P.E. teachers had more time to discipline the students since they didn’t have many classes.
This concern is actually a “subject bias”, that is, choosing a P.E. teacher as the head-teacher is not good for the students’ grades since he doesn’t know Chinese, maths, or English. It is acceptable for Chinese teachers, maths teachers and English teachers to be head-teachers because these subjects are important to entrance exams and scores. Such a concern reflects parents’ anxiety in the current educational environment, which tends to link the head-teacher’s responsible subject with the facts whether the school cares about the class and the children’s performances in the subject.
Many people care about their kids’ academic performances only. They don’t care about their kids’ P.E. performance at all. Even if kids have P.E. classes, parents care little. P.E. teachers are in humble position and their classes are often occupied by other teachers. Of course, if students, P.E. performance is related to grades and entrance exams, parents won’t mind “a P.E. teacher being the head-teacher”.
At the moment, P.E. is gradually included in entrance exams.
In terms of high school entrance examination, Guangzhou will launch a new high school entrance exam which includes P.E. performance and Health examination in 2021, raising the score to 70 points.
In terms of the college entrance examination, universities having the right of independent enrollments added P.E. tests to their entrance exams in 2019.

【答案】4. D 5. D 6. A 7. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述了人们对于体育老师当班主任的不同见解。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。结合文章第一段“Some parents asked, “Does the P.E. teacher know maths and English If not, how is he supposed to tutor the students ” (有些家长问：“体育老师懂数学和英语吗？如果没有，又怎么教学生呢 ”)”可推知，本句话表明父母怀疑体育老师能力不足，因此，通过说“我的体育老师教我数学”，作者想告诉我们D 项“Parents doubt the ability of P.E. teacher(家长怀疑体育老师的能力)”符合题意。故选D 项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。结合文章第二段“This concern is actually a “subject bias”, that is, choosing a P.E. teacher as the head-teacher is not good for the students’ grades since he doesn’t know Chinese, maths, or English…Such a concern reflects parents’ anxiety in the current educational environment, which tends to link the head-teacher’s responsible subject with the facts whether the school cares about the class and the children’s performances in the subject(这种担心实际上是一种“学科偏见”，即选择体育教师作为班主任对学生的成绩不利，因为他不懂语文、数学或英语……这种担忧反映了当前教育环境下家长的焦虑，这种焦虑往往把班主任的责任主体与学校是否关心班级、孩子在学科上的表现等事实联系起来。)”可知，在现行的教育体制下，体育老师的作用被广大家长大大低估了，对于体育老师的作用并没有很好的认知。因此，我们可以从第二段中推断出一个体育老师D项“gets unfairly judged due to the current educational system(受到当前的教育体制受到不公正的评判)”符合题意。故选D 项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。结合文章倒数二三段“In terms of high school entrance examination, Guangzhou will launch a new high school entrance exam which includes P.E. performance and Health examination in 2021, raising the score to 70 points.In terms of the college entrance examination, universities having the right of independent enrollments added P.E. tests to their entrance exams in 2019. This practice is seen as an important signal that the assessment of physical fitness and athletic ability, which are important aspects of a student’s overall quality, may be included in the college entrance examination in the future(在高中入学考试方面，广州将于2021年推出新的高中入学考试，其中包括体育成绩和健康考试，将分数提高到70分。在高考方面，拥有自主招生权的高校在2019年的高考中增加了体育考试。这一做法被视为一个重要信号，即作为学生综合素质重要方面的身体素质和运动能力评估，今后可能会纳入高考)”可以看出，无论是广东省决定在中考中加入体育成绩的考核，还是有自主招生资质的大学注重考査学生的体育能力，都在逐渐提升全民对于身体健康的关注和认知。因此，广州在中考中提高体育成绩的比例的原因是A项“To raise students’ awareness of physical health(提高学生的身体健康意识)”符合题意。故选A项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文，并结合最后一段“We hope that it’s a trend for P.E. teachers, music teachers and art teachers to become head-teachers(我们希望体育教师、音乐教师、美术教师成为班主任是一种趋势)”可知，作者是十分支持体育老师担当班主任一职的。因此，作者对体育教师担任班主任的看法是C项“Supportive(支持)” 符合题意。故选C项。

Conducting interviews for news stories is an important skill for any journalist. To start, do as much research as you can and prepare a list of questions to ask. Once the interview starts, try to develop a rapport(融洽的关系) with your "source"—anyone a journalist interviews, but don't waste your time. If your source starts to talk about things that are clearly of no use to you, don't be afraid to gently but firmly turn the conversation back to the topic at hand.
It's an old debate among journalists: Which works better when interviewing a source, taking notes (the old-fashioned way) or using a cassette or digital voice recorder Both have their advantages and disadvantages. A reporter's notebook and a pen or pencil are the easy-to-use, time-honored tools of the interviewing trade, while recorders enable you to get everything someone says word for word. Which works better It depends on what kind of story you're doing.
Many beginning reporters complain that with a notepad and pen, they can never take down everything a source says in an interview. But you don't have to note everything down. Keep in mind that you're probably not going to use everything they say in your story. So don't worry if you let slip a few things.
So you've done a long interview with a source, you have pages of notes, and you're ready to write. But chances are you'll only be able to choose a few quotes from that information collected directly from the source. Which ones should you use Reporters often talk about using only "good" quotes for their stories, but what does this mean Broadly speaking, when someone says something interesting, and says it in an interesting way, that can make a good quote.
8. What is a journalist advised to do during an interview
A. Be gentle with the source. B. Carry on a long conversation.
C. Make the conversation interesting. D. Prevent the conversation being off-topic.
9. What do the underlined words "let slip" in Paragraph 3 mean
A. give away B. leave out C. get rid of D. take up
10 What is considered as a good quote for a reporter
A. A direct quote. B. An important point of view.
C. A piece of basic information. D. Something funny a source says interestingly.
11. What is the text mainly about
A. The job of a journalist. B. The process of interviewing.
C Some facts about interviewing. D. The relationship between a journalist and a source.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了记者进行采访时的一些相关知识。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“If your source starts to talk about things that are clearly of no use to you, don't be afraid to gently but firmly turn the conversation back to the topic at hand.( 如果你的提供信息的人开始谈论那些显然对你没用的事情，不要害怕温和而坚定地把话题转回手头的话题)”可知，记者要尽量避免被采访者在采访过程中跑题。故选D。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线词前的“But you don't have to note everything down. (但是你不必把一切都记下来。)”可知，记者没有必要记下被采访者说的每一句话，因此推断如果错过了一些东西，也不用担心，所以let slip意为“错过"，与leave out的意思最为接近。故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Broadly speaking, when someone says something interesting, and says it in an interesting way, that can make a good quote.( 总地来说，当有人说一些有趣的话，并以一种有趣的方式说它的时候，那可以成为一个很好的引用) "可知，被采访者以有趣的方式所说的有趣的话可以成为好的引语。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段的“Conducting interviews for news stories is an important skill for any journalist. To start, do as much research as you can and prepare a list of questions to ask.（对新闻报道进行采访对任何记者来说都是一项重要的技能。首先，做尽可能多的研究，并准备一系列问题清单。）”，第二段的“Both have their advantages and disadvantages. A reporter's notebook and a pen or pencil are the easy-to-use, time-honored tools of the interviewing trade, while recorders enable you to get everything someone says word for word.( 两者都有其优缺点。一个记者的笔记本和钢笔或铅笔是面试行业中易于使用、历史悠久的工具，而录音机可以让你逐字逐句地得到别人说的所有话。)”以及下文其他内容可知，本文主要介绍了记者进行采访时的一些相关知识，故选C。
D
A cheap printed sensor could transmit wildfire warnings. Wildfires have recently destroyed regions across the world, and their gravity is increasing. Hoping to reduce harm, researchers led by Yapei Wang, a Chinese chemist of Renmin University, say they have developed an inexpensive sensor to detect such fires earlier with less effort.
Current detection methods rely heavily on human watchfulness, which can delay an effective response. Most wildfires are reported by the general public, and other alerts come from routine foot patrols and watchtower observers. Passing planes and satellites also occasionally spot something, but “the fire first appears on the ground," Wang says. “ When you see the fire from the sky, it is too late. ”
The team says its new sensor can be placed near tree trunks' bases and send a wireless signal to a nearby receiver if there is a dramatic temperature increase. That heat also powers the sensor itself, without replacing batteries. The team printed the substances onto ordinary paper to create a sensor for just $ 0.40.
But improving coordination among the different agencies involved in firefighting is even more crucial to address, says Graham Kent, an earthquake expert at the University of Nevada, Reno, who was not part of the study. Kent is director of ALERTWildfire, a network that uses cameras and crowd sourcing to watch for fires in California, Nevada and Oregon. “The whole way that you respond to a fire until it's put out is like a ballet," he says. “You'd have to choreograph (设计) it just so, with resources precisely used at the right time and place and in the right order from detection to confirmation to assignment to extinguishment (熄灭).Fire detection is just step one.
Wang says his team's next steps are to extend the device's signal range beyond the current 100 meters, which can limit practical use, and to develop a protective shield for it. The transmitter's effectiveness, he notes, will also need to be examined in the field ahead.
12. What does the underlined word “gravity” in paragraph 1 probably mean
A. Pull. B. Extinction.
C. Popularity. D. Severity.
13. What do we know about the sensor
A. Its price remains high.
B. Its batteries are replaceable.
C. It can detect fires earlier and easier.
D. It can reduce firefighters' pain.
14. What does Kent mean in paragraph 4
A. Firefighting is easy but crucial.
B. Fire detection resources are rich.
C. Putting out a fire is an orderly activity.
D. Technology is the key to extinguishing a fire.
15. What's the plan for the new sensor according to Wang
A. Improving and testing it.
B. Limiting its use and transmission.
C. Examing and reducing its signal range.
D. Getting it on the market ahead of time.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了研发团队已经开发出一种可以更早地探测到火灾的传感器，并讲述了研发过程和改进。
【12题详解】
词义猜测题。根据前文“Wildfires have recently destroyed regions across the world（最近，野火摧毁了世界各地的一些地区）”可知，野火所造成的危害在增加，所以gravity指的是“严重性”之意。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“say they have developed an inexpensive sensor to detect such fires earlier with less effort.（他们已经开发出一种廉价的传感器，可以更早地探测到此类火灾。）”可知，传感器能更早更容易地探测到火灾。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段Kent说的话“You'd have to choreograph (设计) it just so, with resources precisely used at the right time and place and in the right order from detection to confirmation to assignment to extinguishment (熄灭).Fire detection is just step one.（你必须精心设计，在正确的时间和地点，以正确的顺序精确地使用资源，从探测、确认、分配到灭火。探测火灾只是第一步。）”可推断，扑灭火灾是一项有秩序的活动。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Wang says his team's next steps are to extend the device's signal range beyond the current 100 meters, which can limit practical use, and to develop a protective shield for it. The transmitter's effectiveness, he notes, will also need to be examined in the field ahead.（王说，他团队的下一步是将该设备的信号范围扩展到目前100米以外，这可能会限制实际使用，并为其开发一种保护罩。他指出，发射机的有效性还需要在未来的领域进行检验。）”可推断，新传感器的计划是改进和测试。故选A。

Personal development doesn't just happen. ___16___ Self-development requires hard work, devotion and an ever-growing skill. So，what new skills do you need to power forward
On your journey toward your best self, you need to set goals. The key is balance : If your goals are too high, you'll get discouraged when you fall short. ___17___ The better approach is to think in milestones. If you want to be a novelist, don't set a goal to finish a book in a week. Focus on getting a couple of pages done each day, or on writing a chapter each week. This measurable progress is more sustainable and fulfilling.
___18___ To keep going when times are tough, you have to learn how to manage your stress levels. If light walks help you keep your head on straight, schedule one for your lunch period every day. If you need to take Sundays off to recharge for the next week, it's more than acceptable to do so.
Organization is a skill that comes more naturally to some people than others. If you're a naturally messy person, start small. Otherwise, you'll be at a loss. ___19___ Clean up your bedroom or your car. If physical cleaning is stressful, start by cutting out files from your computer. Believe it or not, one clean space can set the tone for the rest of your life.
On the road of personal development, you'll run into some barriers. Nobody but you can remove these from your path. ___20___ Perhaps anxiety is keeping you from doing your best work. Instead of struggling through it, quietly take a mental health day.
A. Personal growth needs stress management.
B. Focus on the places where you spend the most time.
C. You can't expect to wake up the next day with new skills.
D. Don't let personal challenges stand in the way of your growth.

【54题详解】
考查名词词义辨析。句意：尽管有这些不同，但证据显示近年来生活方式的改变或许会影响法国人的饮食习惯。A. examples例子；B. traditions传统；C. changes变化，改变；D. stories故事。下文提到快餐正被法国人认可、接受，法国儿童肥胖率正急剧上升，这是一种变化，同时本句中的recent（近期的，近来的）也起到提示作用，可帮助排除traditions（传统），故选C。

【79题详解】

三、弄清楚每个连接词的意义。此外还要注意，近年来高考对于名词性从句的考查多从名词性从句的语序和连接词的用法区别上考查。

【详解】考查形容词。句意：当飞机开始下降时，我很紧张。分析句子，该空是句子的表语部分，应使用形容词，形容“I”，所给词nerve为名词，意为“神经”，其派生形容词nervous(紧张的)符合题意。故填nervous。
