The other day, my friend Sara was telling me about a relationship with her colleague that was broken beyond repair. The two of them had been close. And then one day, Sara had, with the best intentions, done something that her colleague had completely misunderstood and had taken offense at.
Things became worse. Sara didn’t know what to say or do. She didn’t know how to repair the relationship. She began to get angry at her colleague for misunderstanding her and judging her. She felt justified in her anger. The two of them still were not really speaking and certainly weren’t working together. The team, and their output, were suffering.
It was time to do something to rectify the situation. I asked Sara what she needed. After much thought, she told me that she needed her colleague to be willing to listen to her with an open mind, to at least consider that she hadn’t meant any harm by what she’d done and to apologize for taking things so seriously and making things so bad.
“Ah…” I said to her. “You want an apology.” I then asked her, “What do you think your colleague might want ” I asked.
She didn’t answer.
“Did you ever apologize ” I asked her. She shook her head no. “Do you think you might want to apologize ” I asked her. She shrugged her shoulders… then shook her head yes.
Sometimes we take so long to apologize. We justify our unwillingness, saying it won’t really make a difference. Or they should apologize first. Or we didn’t mean any harm and they misunderstood us. But I’ve found that an apology—a true, heartfelt apology—can work wonders. It can repair the unrepairable. It can fix just about anything.
4. What happened between Sara and her colleague
A. They decided to quit the job together.
B. They spoke ill of each other.
C. They were badly annoyed with each other.
D. They criticized each other’s poor work performance.
5. What does the underlined word “rectify” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Investigate. B. Correct. C. Maintain. D. Review.
6. What did the author advise Sara to do
A. Accept her colleague’s apology. B. Wait for her colleague to apologize.
C. Apologize to her colleague first. D. Justify herself to her colleague.
7. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage
A. To stress the importance of an apology.
B. To explain how to apologize effectively.
C. To show how to respond to others’ apology.
D. To offer advice on getting along with colleagues.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. C 7. A
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。Sara和她的同事因为误解,互相生气,影响了工作,作者提出一些建议来帮助Sara。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“Sara had, with the best intentions, done something that her colleague had completely misunderstood and had taken offense at.(Sara出于好意,做了一件同事完全误解和冒犯的事。)”可知,Sara做了一件让同事生气的事情。由第二段第四五句“She began to get angry at her colleague for misunderstanding her and judging her. She felt justified in her anger. The two of them still were not really speaking and certainly weren’t working together. ( 她开始对同事误会她、评判她而生气。她觉得自己的愤怒是正当的。他们两人仍然没有真正交谈,当然也没有在一起工作。)”可知,Sara开始生同事的气,两人既不说话也不合作,故选C。
【5题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段最后一句“The team, and their output, were suffering.( 团队和他们的产出都受到了影响。)”可知,团队和她们的工作产出都因为Sara和同事互相生气而变差。由第三段第二句“I asked Sara what she needed.( 我问莎拉她需要什么。)”可知,作者主动开解Sara。因此,作者认为是时候“纠正、整顿”这种局面了,故选B。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段引号中的问话,作者问“Sara,Did you ever apologize ( “你道歉过吗?”)”及“Do you think you might want to apologize (“你认为你想道歉吗?”)”可知,作者希望Sara主动向同事道歉,故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段最后两句“But I’ve found that an apology a true, heartfelt apology can work wonders. It can repair the unrepairable. It can fix just about anything.( 但是我发现一个道歉,一个真正的、发自内心的道歉能够创造奇迹。它可以修复无法修复的问题。它几乎可以解决任何问题。)”可知,作者认为道歉能创造奇迹,修复关系,可以解决任何问题。因此,可以推断出作者写这篇文章的目的是“强调道歉的重要性”,故选A。
【点睛】细节理解题,需要通读全文或者部分段落,了解文中的重要事实或细节,然后遵循由整体到细节的原则,把握作者的思路,按全文---段落----词语的步骤来解题。
词意猜测题,考生应该紧扣原文,根据上下文的语境进行合理判断,既不要望文生义,也不要断章取义,更不能只选择自己认识或熟悉的意思。
写作意图题,在涉及文章的主题(main idea)、结论(conclusion)、结局(ending)等有关问题时,需要在细读全文的基础上,结合所学语言知识、背景知识、生活常识等进行逻辑推理和判断,从而挖掘出文章中隐含的信息。

Some parents will buy any high-tech toy if they think it will help their child, but researchers said puzzles help children with math-related skills.
Psychologist Susan Levine, an expert on mathematics development in young children the University of Chicago, found children who play with puzzles between ages 2 and 4 later develop better spatial skills. Puzzle play was found to be a significant predictor of cognition(认知) after controlling for differences in parents’ income, education and the amount of parent talk, Levine said.
The researchers analyzed video recordings of 53 child-parent pairs during everyday activities at home and found children who play with puzzles between 26 and 46 months of age have better spatial skills when assessed at 54 months of age.
“The children who played with puzzles performed better than those who did not, on tasks that assessed their ability to rotate(旋转)and translate shapes,” Levine said in a statement.
The parents were asked to interact with their children as they normally would, and about half of children in the study played with puzzles at one time. Higher-income parents tended to have children play with puzzles more frequently, and both boys and girls who played with puzzles had better spatial skills. However, boys tended to play with more complex puzzles than girls, and the parents of boys provided more spatial language and were more active during puzzle play than parents of girls.
The findings were published in the journal Developmental Science.
8. In which aspect do children benefit from puzzle play
A. Building confidence. B. Developing spatial skills.
C. Learning self-control. D. Gaining high-tech knowledge.
9. What did Levine take into consideration when designing her experiment?
A. Parents’ age. B. Children’s imagination.
C. Parents’ education. D. Child-parent relationship.
10. How do boy differ from girls in puzzle play
A. They play with puzzles more often.
B. They tend to talk less during the game.
C. They prefer to use more spatial language.
D. They are likely to play with tougher puzzles.
11. What is the text mainly about
A. A mathematical method. B. A scientific study.
C. A woman psychologist D. A teaching program.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文。是关于孩子们玩智力游戏的研究,介绍了研究考虑的因素,研究过程和结果。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中…found children who play with puzzles between ages 2 and 4 develop better spatial skill(在2岁到4岁之间玩智力游戏的儿童在空间能力方面更好)可知,孩子们可以从智力游戏中发展更好的空间技能。B. Developing spatial skills(发展空间能力)符合以上说法,故选B项。
9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中Puzzle play was found to be a significant predictor of cognition after controlling for difference in parents' income, education and the amount of parent talk, Levine said.( Levine说,在父母的收入、教育和父母谈话次数方面控制差异性之后,拼图游戏被发现是一个重要的认知预测)可知Levine在设计这个试验时考虑了父母的收入、教育程度和父母谈话的次数。C. Parents' education.(父母的教育)符合以上说法,故选C项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中However, boys tended to play with more complex puzzles than girls,可知男孩比女孩更喜欢玩复杂的谜题,即他们可能会玩难度更大的谜题。D. They are likely to play with tougher puzzles.(他们有可能玩更复杂的谜题)符合以上说法,故选D项。

Even with the most recent advances in medicine, your beloved cat won’t live forever, but will it someday be possible to revive your cat with cloning
On December 22, 2001, scientists at Texas A & M University announced the birth of CC, the world’s first cloned cat. CC has the same DNA blueprint as her genetic mother, Rainbow. But a closer view in color reveals they don’t actually look identical. Rainbow has a lot of orange in her fur while CC has no orange coloring at all.
So why the difference in appearance A clone is never actually identical and the most obvious difference is coat color. The orange coat color gene in cats is randomly activated in some clusters (簇) of skin cells. When activated, the skin cells produce orange fur, otherwise they would produce black fur.
But physical appearance was just the start of the differences seen between Rainbow and CC. Personality is where the largest gaps to emerge, since a lot of factors greatly change behavioral development. These influences start in the womb (子宫) with factors as simple as nutrition. Kittens of mothers who lack nutrition delay in crawling, eye opening, climbing and playing. Once the youngsters are born, their environment becomes even more diverse and differences become more obvious. As expected, social contact with the mother during the first four weeks is essential to normal emotional development. Those lacking this contact are unusually fearful of other cats and people. They’re also slow in thinking and show difficulty learning.
The difference in personality between CC and Rainbow were clear. Rainbow was reserved while CC was curious and outgoing. When CC was five, she had three kittens “the natural way”. She died when she was 18 years old, three years longer than the average life span of a cat.
The take home message with CC is that cloning will not revive your pet. Instead, you would be more likely to get something that looked similar to your beloved pet but that acted quite differently, or your clone could even end up looking like a complete stranger.
12. Why does CC look different from Rainbow
A. Certain gene of CC was inactivated.
B. CC didn’t get enough nutrition.
C. Their DNA blueprints were different.
D. CC had little social contact with Rainbow.
13. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. The physical differences between CC and Rainbow.
B. The important role nutrition plays in behavioral development.
C. Factors contributing to CC and Rainbow’s different personalities.
D. The importance of social contact to emotional development.
14. What can we infer about CC from the text
A. She had a quiet and reserved personality.
B. She has nothing in common with Rainbow.
C. She was cloned for commercial use.
D. She lived a long life.
15. What’s the author’s opinion on cloning pets according to the text
A. It is realistic. B. It’s understandable.
C. It’s unwise. D. It’s harmful.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。介绍了一只克隆猫与其遗传本体之间的区别及原因以及作者对于克隆宠物的观点。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据A 根据第三段第三、四句“The orange coat color gene in cats is randomly activated in some clusters of skin cells. When activated, the skin cells produce orange fur, otherwise they would produce black fur”(猫的橙色毛色基因在某些皮肤细胞簇中被随机激活。激活后,皮肤细胞会生成橙色毛发,否则会生成黑色毛发。)可知,CC和Rainbow颜色不同主要是因为CC的橙色毛色基因没有被激活,故选A项。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“Personality is where the largest gaps to emerge, since a lot of factors greatly change behavioral development..”(性格是出现最大差距的地方,因为许多因素极大地改变了行为发展)可知,第四段主要在说导致CC和Rainbow性格不同的因素。故选C项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段最后一句“ She died when she was 18 years old, three years longer than the average life span of a cat.”(她在18岁时去世,比猫的平均寿命长3年。)可知,CC的寿命比普通猫的平均寿命多三年,因此可以推断出CC活的更长,故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段倒数两句“ Instead, you would be more likely to get something that looked similar to your beloved pet but that acted quite differently, or your clone could even end up looking like a complete stranger.”(相反,你更有可能得到一些看起来与你心爱的宠物相似但行为却截然不同的东西,或者你的克隆物最终看起来像一个完全陌生的东西。)可知,作者认为克隆宠物不能复活死去的宠物,反而可能会事与愿违,得到一只完全不同的宠物,因此可以推断出作者认为克隆宠物“不明智”,故选C项。

第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
Public Speaking
Public speaking can be defined as the act of making a speech in front of a group of listeners.
The types of public speaking are deliberately structured with three general purposes: to inform, to persuade and to entertain. An informative speech has a purpose to inform, or give knowledge to its audience. ___16___For persuasive speech, the speaker would try to change the mindset, perception, or behavior of the audience for their own good. Thus, the speaker needs to look for common ground with the audience and try to relate to what they might agree on. The last type is a ceremonial speech. It tends to be less formal and more personal than the other types of speeches. No matter how well you know the person you are giving speech about, try not to say bad things about them, even if it is meant to be a joke.
___17___Sparing some time to practice will help build confidence and help determine how long the presentation will last. Aside from it, knowing who the audience will be is quite necessary. Try to get as much information as possible regarding this particular area related to the audience. Knowing the “battlefield” in advance will give the speakers a huge advantage.
Language is the main aspect a speaker needs to pay attention to while giving a speech.
___18___A speaker needs to choose their words carefully and make it clear to the audience what they mean. Often, when given a speech, the audience look up to the speaker to give them something new and useful. ___19___Language and delivery alone will not be sufficient if the speaker does not have the body language. The movement and gesture of a speaker also affect the audience. While closing the speech or presentation, speakers can restate their main points, just to remind the audience of the important things that have been said. ___20___
A. It needs to be used clearly.
B. These speeches mark special occasions.
C. The important thing to watch about is not to put in too much information.
D. The key of perfecting anything is through practice, including public speaking.
E. They can also end it with a special message and encourage the audience to ask questions.
F. Knowing how public speaking is done is a key part in understanding the importance of it.
G. Thus, the speaker needs to know how to deliver their speech to fulfill the audience s expectation.
【答案】16. C 17. D 18. A 19. G 20. E
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文,短文介绍了公共演讲类型的目的以及成就完美演讲所注意的几点技巧。
【16题详解】
由第二段“ An informative speech has a purpose to inform, or give knowledge to its audience”可知,一篇内容丰富的演讲有一个目的,就是向听众提供信息或传授知识。所以小题1要告诉读者要注意什么。故C选项“重要的是要注意不要输入太多的信息”符合句意。故C选项切题。
【17题详解】
由第三段“Sparing some time to practice will help build confidence and help determine how long the presentation will last. Aside from it, knowing who the audience will be is quite necessary. Try to get as much information as possible regarding this particular area related to the audience. Knowing the “battlefield” in advance will give the speakers a huge advantage”可知,抽出时间练习将有助于建立信心,并有助于确定演讲的持续时间。除此之外,知道观众是谁是非常必要的。应该尽可能多地了解与观众有关的特定领域的信息。提前了解“战场”将给演讲者带来巨大的优势。所以本段主要再告诉读者“完善一切的关键在于实践,包括公开演讲”也就是小题2所要说明的内容。故D选项“完善一切的关键在于实践,包括公开演讲”符合句意。故D选项切题。
【18题详解】
由第四段“A speaker needs to choose their words carefully and make it clear to the audience what they mean.”可知,一个演讲者需要仔细选择他们讲的话,让观众明白他们的意思。所以小题3要起到承接下文的作用说明“它需要被清楚地使用”。故A选项“它需要被清楚地使用”符合句意。故A选项切题。
【19题详解】
由第四段“Often, when given a speech, the audience look up to the speaker to give them something new and useful.”可知,通常,当演讲时,听众会抬头仰望演讲者,希望他能给他们一些新的有用的东西。所以小题4要说明当听众会抬头仰望演讲者,希望他能给他们一些新的有用的东西。这时演讲者应该知道怎么去做。故G选项“因此,演讲者需要知道如何发表他们的演讲来满足听众的期望”符合句意。故G选项切题。
【20题详解】
由第四段“While closing the speech or presentation, speakers can restate their main points, just to remind the audience of the important things that have been said”可知,在结束演讲或陈述时,演讲者可以重述他们的要点,只是为了提醒听众已经说过的重要事情。所以小题5要与前一句一同说明,在结束演讲时可以什么样的形式结束。故E选项“他们也可以用特别的信息来结束演讲,并鼓励听众提问”符合句意。故E选项切题。
第三部分 英语言运用(共三节, 满分30分)

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 am a proud mother of three children, my last little one being delivered in the middle of this pandemic. She was born in August and her name is Aida.
Shortly after having Aida, my mother-in-law Ann showed me something she learned from her friend’s mother in an art class she attended weekly. She had showed me how to knit (编织) a scarf. She showed me stitches (针) and gave me her half done project.
I spent a lot of time breastfeeding my sweet little girl, so I had some extra time to do something with my hands throughout the day. I enjoyed making the scarf so I purchased tons of yarn (线) since it was winter. I wanted to make scarves for my three children as Christmas gifts.
There was a new family that moved in down the street. The only daughter of the family was Jane, a shy girl, aged 14, the same age of my oldest son David. It seemed that she came from a financially disadvantaged family, for she always wore old clothes. Worse sill, in such cold days, she had no more clothes to wear and trembled with cold.
Due to the pandemic, society was thrown into crisis mode. Schools were closed, food supplies and deliveries were suspended and children were stuck at home. In such discouraging times, however, they became good companions, talking and playing at home or around the houses.
It was dreadfully cold this winter. Every time David came back from outside, with red face, he always cried, “Mum, it is freezing outside!” Then, he came over to see whether I finished the scarf. I could tell how impatient he was to wear my scarf sooner! I had to speed the project to satisfy his expectation. But David comforted me saying he could wait a few days. What a kind and considerate boy he was ! Then my great art project finally was accomplished on the morning ahead of Christmas.
注意:
1. 续写词数应150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I wrapped the scarf around David’s neck.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Later that day David came back saying Jane also deserved a scarf.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 I wrapped the scarf around David’s neck. David’s face lit up with joy. Stroking the scarf softly, David excitedly kissed me in the cheek, beaming at me “Thank you, Mum. This is the best gift I have ever received.” Before I could say anything, he dashed out to join Jane with a spring in his step. I felt relieved and content as a mother, seeing David play happily outside, with the scarf sheltering him to brave the bone-chilling wind. Wearing a smile on my face, I continued my chores that morning.
Later that day David came back saying Jane also deserved a scarf. Obviously, David noticed Jane could hardly bear the freezing weather with worn-out clothes. “Can I give this to Jane as a Christmas gift ” David ventured in a low voice. Smilingly, I nodded. Seeing David rush into Jane’s house with the scarf in his hand, felt burst of pride. I was happy that both of them received the best gift for Christmas. For Jane-a scarf to keep warm, and for David—a taste of happiness of giving.

The other day, my friend Sara was telling me about a relationship with her colleague that was broken beyond repair. The two of them had been close. And then one day, Sara had, with the best intentions, done something that her colleague had completely misunderstood and had taken offense at.
Things became worse. Sara didn’t know what to say or do. She didn’t know how to repair the relationship. She began to get angry at her colleague for misunderstanding her and judging her. She felt justified in her anger. The two of them still were not really speaking and certainly weren’t working together. The team, and their output, were suffering.
It was time to do something to rectify the situation. I asked Sara what she needed. After much thought, she told me that she needed her colleague to be willing to listen to her with an open mind, to at least consider that she hadn’t meant any harm by what she’d done and to apologize for taking things so seriously and making things so bad.
“Ah…” I said to her. “You want an apology.” I then asked her, “What do you think your colleague might want ” I asked.
She didn’t answer.
“Did you ever apologize ” I asked her. She shook her head no. “Do you think you might want to apologize ” I asked her. She shrugged her shoulders… then shook her head yes.
Sometimes we take so long to apologize. We justify our unwillingness, saying it won’t really make a difference. Or they should apologize first. Or we didn’t mean any harm and they misunderstood us. But I’ve found that an apology—a true, heartfelt apology—can work wonders. It can repair the unrepairable. It can fix just about anything.
4. What happened between Sara and her colleague
A They decided to quit the job together.
B. They spoke ill of each other.
C. They were badly annoyed with each other.
D. They criticized each other’s poor work performance.
5. What does the underlined word “rectify” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Investigate. B. Correct. C. Maintain. D. Review.
6. What did the author advise Sara to do
A. Accept her colleague’s apology. B. Wait for her colleague to apologize.
C. Apologize to her colleague first. D. Justify herself to her colleague.
7. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage
A. To stress the importance of an apology.
B. To explain how to apologize effectively.
C. To show how to respond to others’ apology.
D. To offer advice on getting along with colleagues.
C
Some parents will buy any high-tech toy if they think it will help their child, but researchers said puzzles help children with math-related skills.
Psychologist Susan Levine, an expert on mathematics development in young children the University of Chicago, found children who play with puzzles between ages 2 and 4 later develop better spatial skills. Puzzle play was found to be a significant predictor of cognition(认知) after controlling for differences in parents’ income, education and the amount of parent talk, Levine said.
The researchers analyzed video recordings of 53 child-parent pairs during everyday activities at home and found children who play with puzzles between 26 and 46 months of age have better spatial skills when assessed at 54 months of age.
“The children who played with puzzles performed better than those who did not, on tasks that assessed their ability to rotate(旋转)and translate shapes,” Levine said in a statement.
The parents were asked to interact with their children as they normally would, and about half of children in the study played with puzzles at one time. Higher-income parents tended to have children play with puzzles more frequently, and both boys and girls who played with puzzles had better spatial skills. However, boys tended to play with more complex puzzles than girls, and the parents of boys provided more spatial language and were more active during puzzle play than parents of girls.
The findings were published in the journal Developmental Science.
8. In which aspect do children benefit from puzzle play
A. Building confidence. B. Developing spatial skills.
C. Learning self-control. D. Gaining high-tech knowledge.
9. What did Levine take into consideration when designing her experiment?
A. Parents’ age. B. Children’s imagination.
C. Parents’ education. D. Child-parent relationship.
10. How do boy differ from girls in puzzle play
A. They play with puzzles more often.
B. They tend to talk less during the game.
C. They prefer to use more spatial language.
D. They are likely to play with tougher puzzles.
11. What is the text mainly about
A. A mathematical method. B. A scientific study.
C. A woman psychologist D. A teaching program.

Even with the most recent advances in medicine, your beloved cat won’t live forever, but will it someday be possible to revive your cat with cloning
On December 22, 2001, scientists at Texas A & M University announced the birth of CC, the world’s first cloned cat. CC has the same DNA blueprint as her genetic mother, Rainbow. But a closer view in color reveals they don’t actually look identical. Rainbow has a lot of orange in her fur while CC has no orange coloring at all.
So why the difference in appearance A clone is never actually identical and the most obvious difference is coat color. The orange coat color gene in cats is randomly activated in some clusters (簇) of skin cells. When activated, the skin cells produce orange fur, otherwise they would produce black fur.
But physical appearance was just the start of the differences seen between Rainbow and CC. Personality is where the largest gaps to emerge, since a lot of factors greatly change behavioral development. These influences start in the womb (子宫) with factors as simple as nutrition. Kittens of mothers who lack nutrition delay in crawling, eye opening, climbing and playing. Once the youngsters are born, their environment becomes even more diverse and differences become more obvious. As expected, social contact with the mother during the first four weeks is essential to normal emotional development. Those lacking this contact are unusually fearful of other cats and people. They’re also slow in thinking and show difficulty learning.
The difference in personality between CC and Rainbow were clear. Rainbow was reserved while CC was curious and outgoing. When CC was five, she had three kittens “the natural way”. She died when she was 18 years old, three years longer than the average life span of a cat.
The take home message with CC is that cloning will not revive your pet. Instead, you would be more likely to get something that looked similar to your beloved pet but that acted quite differently, or your clone could even end up looking like a complete stranger.
12. Why does CC look different from Rainbow
A. Certain gene of CC was inactivated.
B. CC didn’t get enough nutrition.
C. Their DNA blueprints were different.
D. CC had little social contact with Rainbow.
13. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. The physical differences between CC and Rainbow.
B. The important role nutrition plays in behavioral development.
C. Factors contributing to CC and Rainbow’s different personalities.
D. The importance of social contact to emotional development.
14. What can we infer about CC from the text
A. She had a quiet and reserved personality.
B She has nothing in common with Rainbow.
C. She was cloned for commercial use.
D. She lived a long life.
15. What’s the author’s opinion on cloning pets according to the text
A. It is realistic. B. It’s understandable.
C. It’s unwise. D. It’s harmful.

Public Speaking
Public speaking can be defined as the act of making a speech in front of a group of listeners.
The types of public speaking are deliberately structured with three general purposes: to inform, to persuade and to entertain. An informative speech has a purpose to inform, or give knowledge to its audience. ___16___For persuasive speech, the speaker would try to change the mindset, perception, or behavior of the audience for their own good. Thus, the speaker needs to look for common ground with the audience and try to relate to what they might agree on. The last type is a ceremonial speech. It tends to be less formal and more personal than the other types of speeches. No matter how well you know the person you are giving speech about, try not to say bad things about them, even if it is meant to be a joke.
___17___Sparing some time to practice will help build confidence and help determine how long the presentation will last. Aside from it, knowing who the audience will be is quite necessary. Try to get as much information as possible regarding this particular area related to the audience. Knowing the “battlefield” in advance will give the speakers a huge advantage.
Language is the main aspect a speaker needs to pay attention to while giving a speech.
___18___A speaker needs to choose their words carefully and make it clear to the audience what they mean. Often, when given a speech, the audience look up to the speaker to give them something new and useful. ___19___Language and delivery alone will not be sufficient if the speaker does not have the body language. The movement and gesture of a speaker also affect the audience. While closing the speech or presentation, speakers can restate their main points, just to remind the audience of the important things that have been said. ___20___
A. It needs to be used clearly.
B. These speeches mark special occasions.
C The important thing to watch about is not to put in too much information.
D. The key of perfecting anything is through practice, including public speaking.
E. They can also end it with a special message and encourage the audience to ask questions.
F. Knowing how public speaking is done is a key part in understanding the importance of it.
G. Thus, the speaker needs to know how to deliver their speech to fulfill the audience s expectation.

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 am a proud mother of three children, my last little one being delivered in the middle of this pandemic. She was born in August and her name is Aida.
Shortly after having Aida, my mother-in-law Ann showed me something she learned from her friend’s mother in an art class she attended weekly. She had showed me how to knit (编织) a scarf. She showed me stitches (针) and gave me her half done project.
I spent a lot of time breastfeeding my sweet little girl, so I had some extra time to do something with my hands throughout the day. I enjoyed making the scarf so I purchased tons of yarn (线) since it was winter. I wanted to make scarves for my three children as Christmas gifts.
There was a new family that moved in down the street. The only daughter of the family was Jane, a shy girl, aged 14, the same age of my oldest son David. It seemed that she came from a financially disadvantaged family, for she always wore old clothes. Worse sill, in such cold days, she had no more clothes to wear and trembled with cold.
Due to the pandemic, society was thrown into crisis mode. Schools were closed, food supplies and deliveries were suspended and children were stuck at home. In such discouraging times, however, they became good companions, talking and playing at home or around the houses.
It was dreadfully cold this winter. Every time David came back from outside, with red face, he always cried, “Mum, it is freezing outside!” Then, he came over to see whether I finished the scarf. I could tell how impatient he was to wear my scarf sooner! I had to speed the project to satisfy his expectation. But David comforted me saying he could wait a few days. What a kind and considerate boy he was ! Then my great art project finally was accomplished on the morning ahead of Christmas.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I wrapped the scarf around David’s neck.
