Ottens was busy with a reel-to-reel tape recorder（盘式磁带录音机） one night in the early 1960s, trying to listen to a work of classical music. He still remembered the hours he eventually spent on the machine because the loose tape would endlessly unravel（散开）from its reel. At the time, Ottens was head of product development at Philips's electronics factory in Belgium. The next morning, he gathered his team and insisted that they create something foolproof: The tape had to be enclosed, and the player had to fit in his jacket pocket.
Trying to imagine something that did not yet exist, Ottens used a small wooden block as the target for what the future of tape recording and playback should be. The "compact cassette" was made public to the world in 1963, and he advocated for Philips to license（批准）this new design to other producers for free, paving the way for cassettes to become a worldwide standard. Billions of cassettes were sold before his team jointly introduced the compact disc (CD) with Sony in 1982.
Ottens was an extraordinary man. As a child, he managed to build a radio that enabled his family to tune in to a London broadcaster that delivered speeches from exiled（流亡的））political leaders during the German occupation of the Netherlands in the 1940s.
Despite the remaking of the music industry in the digital and streaming age, the public's interest in cassettes has quickly grown in recent years. The return and growth of its popularity is believed to be driven by a mix of nostalgia（怀旧）and an appreciation for tapes' unique status as a format, which is flexible yet is also easily seen and touched.
In the 2017 film Cassette: a Documentary Mixtape, Ottens still seems surprised by the impact of the little device. "We knew it would be a success, "he says, "but not a revolution. "
24. What does the word "foolproof" in paragraph l refer to
A. User-friendly. B. Foolish. C. Typical. D. All-round.
25. Why did Philips agree to license cassette to other producers for free
A. They were warm-hearted to help others.
B. They could sell more cassettes worldwide.
C. They could get international help for CDs.
D. They would spare time for other advances.
26. What can we infer from the last 2 paragraphs
A. The digital music players have completely taken the place of cassettes.
B. The invention of cassette once had great effects on the music industry.
C. People now enjoy mixing digital music with nostalgic music.
D. Ottens knew the 2017 film about cassette would be successful.
27. What can we know about Ottens from the text
A. He is extraordinary and sceptical.
B. He is self-confident and withdrawn.
C. He is proud and has a strong hands-on ability.
D. He is creative and gifted for electronics.

During the COVD-19, some city buses and trains have run empty, while others have been crowded I Los Angeles, ridership on the LA Metro has dropped from about 12 million to around 4000 a weekday. Meanwhile, various lines in New York City have run at a dangerous capacity（容量）
To address this and other problems during COVID-19, some cities are tuning to programs called microtransit（微交通）. They oprate like Uber, but the technology companies create he digital routing the and ride-hailing（叫车）platforms for transport agencies. According to Jerome Mavaud, lead data was scientist with microtransit company Spare Labs, cities can use the platforms with public transport to he meet individual needs and to offer rides that can be more affordable than merely private operations. "Imagine Uber and a city bus had a baby, "Mayaud says.
Since the start of the COVD-19, cities have turned to microtransit to offer vital rides, like moving seniors or nurses to hospitals. Supporters of microtransit say the technology behind these apps could be used to combat COVD-19 in other ways. For instance, the apps could help track the spread of the disease and warm rider if they shared a ride with someone who later tested positive a tool called sold contact tracing（跟踪）. Another tool to reduce the spread of the disease is developed within the platforms themselves. Cities can set a rider maximum per trip- informing drivers not to pick up any more than that set umber-functionally enforcing social distance on the rides.
Experts are mixed on the proposals. Some say contact tracing disturbs privacy（隐私）. Others say microtransit could play a useful role as city streets begin t return to normal. It could replace some fixed-route transport route in the future. Further, one of microtransit's biggest strengths, normally, is getting people to and from bus and train stations, making it easier for people to use traditional public transport. I could also be used in rural areas with infrequent public transport service and large distances between stops.
28. Why is the programs of microtransit launched
A. To improve traffic efficiency. B. To remove COVID-19
C. To reduce traffic jams. D. To ensure road safety.
29. What's feature of microtransit
A. It is much cheaper than public transport.
B. It is mainly used to move people to hospitals
C. It is a service under the authority of Uber
D. It is public transport for private use
30. What's the main idea of Paragraph 3
A. What technology is behind microtransit.
B. How microtransit could help fight COVID-19.
C. Contact tracing helps reduce the spread of COVID-19.
D. Microtransit has become the main means of transport.
31. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. Microtransit has a promising future.
B. Microtransit will go out of use after COVID-19.
C. Microtransit will replace traditional public transport.
D. Microtransit has met with experts' general approval.

When Paul Greenberg's son turned 12, he was asking for a smartphone of his own. He challenged Greenberg's reasons for why it wasn't a good idea, pointing out his dad's own addiction to his phone. That's when Greenberg decided to replace his smartphone with an old-fashioned flip phone and focus on spending time with his son.
Greenberg ended up writing a delightful book about the transition, called "Goodbye Phone, Hello World:60 Was to Disconnect from Tech and Reconnect to Joy"—but it's different from what you might expect. It's not an essay on the evils（罪恶）of technology, but a brief, and practical guide on how to live without a smart phone.
The book is divided into chapters that explore the various aspects of your life that will improve when you reallocate your time, such as finding a sense of purpose, strengthening mind and body, building better relationships with friends, family, and lovers, and healing the environment. But first, it opens with a message that our screen addiction is not so much a result of weakness, but rather a carefully invented plan by many computer scientists far more knowledgeable than we are about our own brains and nature:
"I wanted to tell my son that people aren't addicted to screens because they're lazy, but instead because billions of dollars have been invested to make this outcome unavoidable. When you look into your phone, you think it's just your two eyes looking at a screen. What's really happening is that 10, 000 programmers' eyes are looking back at you, following you, tailoring your environment so that you'll keep looking.
"However, you can quit, refuse to play the game; and when you do, doors of opportunity open all around. "
This book is a pleasure to read. Its briefness is purposely suited to people who have lost their attention span（持续时间）, but wish to regain it. I know that when my kids get home from school later today, they won't see me on my phone. I'll leave it inside and take them out to play Frisbee. 32. What does the underlined word "transition" (in Paragraph 2) refer to
A. Say yes to flip phone, Say no to Smartphone.
B. Stop phone addiction, Set an example to children.
C. "Goodbye Phone, Hello World"-a delightful book.
D. Less time with smartphone, More time with children.
33. Which of the following topics is not covered in the book
A. interpersonal relationships B. environmental protection
C. social evils of technology D. physical and mental health
34. Which of the following statements about screen addiction might Greenberg agree with
A. Screen addiction is the direct result of people's weakness.
B. Screen addiction is a trick created by computer scientists.
C. Screen addiction is a sign of people's physical laziness.
D. Screen addiction is unavoidable and a waste of money.
35. What's the purpose of the passage
A. To recommend a delightful book to readers.
B. To persuade people to put down smartphones.
C. To explore the reasons behind screen addiction.
D. To suggest ways to reconnected to a joyful life.

阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Getting a Job in the Video Game Industry
When the video game industry started, the majority of the developers were programmers because they knew how to work in the language of the machines at the time. 36_______ Thus, game developers were no longer limited to excellent programmers.
You can start climbing the ladder as a tester. 37________ For a while, this path worked for quite some time, although many quickly realized that it wasn't the job they imagined it would be. It is almost impossible to progress from tech support into the development without higher level education and training in big development companies.
Getting a development position isn't just a matter of having some programming or art classes on your resume（简历）. 38_________You may prepare yourselves for such questions as∶ What games are out there that you've made Have you worked in a cooperative programming environment before Do you know how to write clean, concise, documented code
In fact, programming interviews frequently involve having to stand up in front of your potential coworkers at a whiteboard and solve logic or programming efficiency problems. Level designers and artists may have to talk about their work on a video project or in the same sort of environment. 39 you're not able to communicate with your potential colleagues, you may lose the chance at a job that you'd be perfect for.
The recent rise of independently developed and published games has opened a new path for those looking to get into the game industry. 40____________
It requires a significant investment of time, energy, resources, and a drive to face a very competitive market. And most importantly, it requires that you know how to fill, and despite this to get up and move on to the next project until you make it.
A. But this is not an easy route.
B. Testing games for money has been a dream job for countless teens.
C. Game development is not the thing you can just do in your bedroom.
D. Later on, other staff like artists became part of the development process
E. Many game companies now check for compatibility（相容性）with teammates.
F. So you can start by trying everything and then focus on what you enjoy most.
G. Long interview processes stand between gifted developers and their dreams of making games 第三部分 语言运用（共两节, 满分 30 分）

阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
Among one of the strange experiences of modern life is one that happens to me, though not just to me: I’ll meet a friend for a drink and he will 41some book or product he thinks I’ll like. Then within days—without searching for it online-I'll start seeing 42 web ads for it.
43 there's a rumor that Facebook uses the microphone in your phone to eavesdrop（窃听）on your conversations.
However, that's almost certainly 44. The truth is that apps and websites have already collected so much of your data that they have no 45 for eavesdropping.
But there's another reason Big Tech 46 us so much better than we think, which is that each of us is far more normal than we realize. Take myself as an example: both Facebook and my friend will make almost the same recommendation because my interests are far less special, and thus more 47 than Id like to believe.
"You're not so special" is a message sometimes delivered as an offence. It is at other times interpreted as tough 48, as in the speech by the American high-school teacher David McCullough. His aim was to urge students not to make themselves painful by struggling to prove they're the 49 of the universe.
Given almost any general definition of the term and all things being 50, of course you're 51 . Your intelligence probably normal. Without any value judgment, that's all the word "normal" and your taste in culture: chances are they're much less 52 or extreme than you think. Or to put it another way:53 you're special is just one more way in which you're normal, which explains why most people think they're above average at many things.
Don't feel 54 by the thought of being normal, though. "Never forget that every mind 55 by the most ordinary experience, "wrote French poet Paul Valery.
41. A. purchase B. recommend C. mention D. present
42. A. targeted B. irrelevant C. classified D. misleading
43. A. No doubt B. No problem C. No use D. No wonder
44. A. alarming B. false C. obvious D. typical
45. A. sense B. way C. idea D. need
46. A. serves B. knows C. monitors D. commands
47. A. accessible B. reasonable C. acceptable D. predictable
48. A. love B. push C. warning D. decision
49. A. center B. part C. end D. master
50. A. effective B. different C. specific D. equal
51. A. means B. appears C. addresses D. violates
52. A. regular B. unusual C. precious D. competitive
53. A. knowing B. displaying C. wondering D. thinking
54. A. astonished B. abandoned C. discouraged D. motivated
55. A. shaped B. occupied C. reserved D. limited

Vaccines protect billions of people around the world. They have completely got rid of one disease —smallpox—and are bringing the world close to 57_______ (remove) others, such as polio But some other diseases, such as measles, are making a resurgence（死灰复燃）and experts say people's avoiding vaccines, fueled by fear and misinformation, 58_________ (be) one of the main causes. Vaccine hesitancy（犹豫）, or mistrust of vaccines, has the potential, at least, in some places, 59________(block) the very real progress the world 60________(make) in controlling vaccine-preventable diseases. What makes people skeptical There are likely to be many factors 61_________ (involve). Some of it may be complacency（侥幸）62 _______ a disease has become less common, then the need to get immunized（免疫）may feel less pressing when weighing the benefits 63_________ any possible risk Besides, the internet means beliefs and concerns about vaccines can be shared in an instant, spreading information 64________ experts say isn't necessarily based on fact.

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's just a small, white envelope stuck among the branches of our Christmas tree. No name, no identification, just a short note inside which says what we have done to celebrate Christmas. It has stuck through the branches of our tree for the past 10 years or so.
It all began because my husband Mike hated Christmas—oh, not the true meaning of Christmas, but the commercial aspects of it—the overspending, the anxious running around at the last minute to get a tie for Uncle Harry and the dusting powder for Grandma—the gifts given in desperation because you couldn't think of anything else.
Knowing he felt this way, I decided one year to avoid the usual shirts, sweaters, ties, and so on. I reached for something special just for Mike. The idea came in an unusual way.
Our son Kevin, who was 12 that year, was wrestling（摔跤）at the junior level at the school he attended. Shortly before Christmas, there was a non-league match against a team supported by an inner-city church. These teenagers, dressed in sport shoes so ragged（破烂的）that shoestrings seemed to be the only thing holding them together, presented a sharp contrast（对 比） to our boys in their stylish blue and gold uniforms and new wrestling shoes. As the match began, I was alarmed to see that the other team was wrestling without headgear, a kind of light helmet designed to protect a wrestler's ears. Obviously, the poor team could not afford.
Well, we ended up defeating them. We took every weight class. And as each of their boys got up from the mat, he walked around in his rags with a kind of steet pride that couldn't acknowledge defeat.
Mike, seated beside me, shook his head sadly, "I wish just one of them could have won, "he said "They have a lot of potential, but losing like this could take the heart right out of them. "
注意∶
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答,
Paragraph 1: That's when the idea for his present came.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: For each Christmas, the envelope has become the tradition of our family.

Dear fellow students,
Nowadays the Internet has become an important platform for information and communication. In order to get rid of the ill manners online and make a good network environment, I do hope all of you can be civilized and responsible netizens in the following ways:
First, when communicating with others online, you are expected to show due respect. Second, watch out for warning signs when visiting a website to avoid spreading virus. Last, saying no to any pirated recordings makes sense.
Let's join our efforts to build a harmonious online community!

第二节
That's when the idea for his present came. The next day, I went to a sporting goods shop and bought a variety of wrestling headgear and shoes and sent them anonymously to the inner-city church. I hoped these Christmas presents would not only light up their day, but also help protect them against injuries. On Christmas Eve, I placed the envelope on the tree with a note inside telling Mike what I had done and that this was his gift from me. His smile was the brightest thing about Christmas.
For each Christmas, the envelope has become the tradition of our family. On Christmas morning, my son would stand with wide-eyed expectation as their dad lifted the envelope from the tree to reveal its contents. Over the years, I had done many good deeds, ranging from helping out in orphanage to caring for the elderly in nursing homes. Gradually, my son and husband followed suit. My envelope was joined by two more. The tradition has grown and someday will expand even further with our grandchildren.
阅读理解
A篇是一篇应用文，介绍了在印第安州阿米什地区4个渐渐被人们遗忘的地方和该地的特色与自然闲趣的生活方式，文章为总分总结构，条理清晰，理解容易。
B是一篇人物传记类文章，介绍了飞利浦比利时工厂主管Otten发明了盒式磁带的过程，同时对Otten这个杰出的人的简单介绍和盒式磁带对音乐方面的影响，难度中等。
C篇是一篇说明文，介绍了微交通的含义，着重介绍了微交通项目在新冠疫情背景下的重要意义，还谈及了专家对微交通的态度看法，文章结合实事，有一定难度。
D篇是一篇夹叙夹议类文章，介绍了保罗格林伯格在与儿子对手机使用的争论中的有趣且实用的观点，并把之写成一本书，重点介绍了这本书《再见手机，你好世界：60种与科技断开连接，重连快乐的方法》，难度中等。
详细解析：
A篇
第21题 D 推断题。文章主要介绍了印第安州阿米什地区4个充满优美景色和自然闲趣的地方，再结合文章最后，这里的人们都过着简单的生活，所以这篇文章是写给自然爱好者的。
第22题 C 细节题。由文章倒数第三段可知，在这个地方可以看到手工制作的阿米什棉被摆在眼前，观看其他传统工艺的演示，故选该段对应小标题Watch skillful hands do the work of the seasons。
第23题 B 概括题。从文章第一段和最后一段这两总段可知，这里的人们过着简单安静的生活，重点在第一段，peaceful原词重现，left behind对应过时的，A项advanced明显错误，C项那里的人们是勤劳的而非懒惰的。
B篇
第24题 A 词义猜测题。第一段首先说明了Otten听一首音乐作品的艰难，因此他召集他的团队坚持要求创造一些万无一失的东西，可以封闭起来，可以使球员放在他的夹克口袋里，这些使与他上文听音乐的艰难对比的，可以推测出这个东西是用户友好的。
第25题 B 细节题。由文章第二段可知，他主张飞利浦免费向其他生产商许可，这为盒式磁带成为世界标准铺平了道路，因此售出了数十亿盒磁带，故这样做的目的是在全球销售更多的盒式磁带。
第26题 B 推断题。由倒数二段可知，近年来公众对盒式磁带的兴趣迅速增长，它的流行和发展被认为是由怀旧的混合驱动的，这种形式灵活，但也很容易被看到和触摸，Otten对这个小装置的影响感到惊讶，所以这一发明对音乐产业产生巨大影响，是音乐更加容易被听到。
第27题 D 总结概括题。文章主要介绍了飞利浦比利时工厂主管Otten发明盒式磁带的过程，其中还提及了当他还小的时候就创造出了收音机收听到了广播，从中可以概括出他是一个具有创造力和在电子方面有天赋的人。
C篇
第28题 A 推断题。由第一段和第二段可知，为了解决像新冠疫情导致客流量急剧减少
所带来的交通路线问题，开展微交通项目，所以微交通更好的适应了这种客流量减少的更加个人化路线的问题，这种做法提高了交通效率，BCD明显错误。
第29题 D 细节题。由文章第二段后半部分可知，微交通可以利用公共交通平台来满足个人需求，并提供比私人运营更实惠的交通工具，故D正确，A是它比私人运营便宜，B于文无据，C是像Uber一样运营。
第30题 B 概括题。文章第三段主要讲述了微交通项目在新冠疫情背景的重要意义，帮助降低通过公共交通感染新冠的可能性，故第三段主旨是介绍微交通如何对抗新冠疫情。
第31题 A 推断题。文章最后一段介绍了专家对微交通的褒贬看法，但是无论看法，未来微交通会继续发挥作用，并取代一些固定路线的交通方式，故可以从最后一段推断出微交通的广阔前景。
D篇
第32题 D 细节题。划线词处的句子为上一段的进一步阐述，划线词明显指代上一段最后那位父亲的变化：用老式翻盖手机取代智能手机，专心和儿子在一起，故选D。
第33题 C 细节题。由文章第三段可知，这本书分为几个章节，探讨当重新分配时间时，生活的各个方面都会有所改善，比如找到目标感，增强身心，与朋友、家人和爱人建立更好的关系，以及改善环境，故选C技术的社会弊端并未涉及。
第34题 B 推断题。由文章第四段可知，作者认为人们对屏幕上瘾不是因为他们懒惰，而是因为数十亿美元的投资使这种结果不可避免，背后的程序员会根据你的浏览不断推荐相似的内容，所以推断出屏幕成瘾是计算机科学家发明的一种把戏。
第35题 A 主旨大意题。文章主要介绍了《再见手机，你好世界：60种与科技断开连接，重连快乐的方法》这本有趣的书的创作背景、主要内容和意义价值，重点在书而非屏幕成瘾。
7选5阅读
答案：36-40 DBGEA
本文用生动形象的语言为读者介绍了视频游戏行业就业所必需的素质与要求，告知了读者想要进入这个行业所需的努力。文章内容清晰有力，具有启发意义。
详细解析：
第36题 D 本题为文意理解题。根据下文我们可知，游戏开发者现在已经不仅仅被局限于优秀的程序员，也即更多其它职业的人参与进入了游戏开发中。答案中只有D选项提及了相关意思，同时第四段中的”artist”也与本题选项中的artist这一职业相呼应。故本题答案为D。
第37题 B 本题为上下文推断题。根据上下文我们可知，虽然我们人人都可以作为测试员开始在游戏视频行业中的旅程，但是渐渐会发现和预想的不同，往后更多的开发与技术支持都需要接受更高的教育以及在大公司训练的经验。由此我们可以推知空缺处涉及的主体应该是不具备上述经历的人。一般为初出茅庐的青少年，他们渴望作为测试员进入行业。故本题答案为B。
第38题 G 根据上下文我们可知，单单拥有编程或艺术学科学习的经历并不完全足够，面试官还会在面试时提出诸多疑问，面试者需要具备可以自如应答的能力，这也是一个区分点，有助于逐梦。故本题答案为G。
第39题 E 根据上文我们可知，编程面试同时要求在潜在同事前解决逻辑或编程效率问题。也即和组员需要具备和同事融洽地进行沟通、合作这一能力，否则就面临着失业的危险。故本题答案为E。
第40题 A 根据上下文可知，最近独立开发并发布的游戏为想要进入游戏行业的人提供了一种新的通路。但后文又告诉我们，它需要投入大量的时间、精力和资源，以及面对竞争十分激烈的市场的驱动力、不惧怕失败的努力等等。故我们可以发现这也并不是一条十分简单的道路，同样需要付出很多。故本题答案为A。
完形填空
答案：41-45 BADBD 46-50 BDAAD 51-55 ABDCA
本文用自己的例子引入，同时使用具有感染力的语言向读者讲述了正确处理“特别”与“普通”之间的关系。同时，我们也需要以辩证和客观的态度去对待特别与普通之间的关系。文章结构较为清晰。
详细解析：
第41题 B 根据下文可知，”that he thinks I'll like”也即他会向我推荐一些他认为我会喜欢的书或是产品。
第42题 A 根据上下文可知，作者提到了窃听问题，也即在友人推荐之后，即使作者没有在网上搜索这些被推荐的东西，网页也会推送相关的广告。BCD选项均与句意相反，而A选项为“定向的”之意，符合题意。
第43题 D 根据上下文推断，上下文之间有逻辑顺承关系，故此处答案应为”no wonder”，也即“难怪”之意。
第44题 B 根据前文表转折的“however”以及后文的"they have already collected so much of your data."可知监听这一说法并不成立，app和网页已经没有窃听的必要。
第45题 D 根据上文陈述可知，收集了足够数据的app和网页已经没有窃听的必要，故此处答案应为“need”。
第46题 B 根据上文我们可知，网页和app会给我们推送各种各样我们以为他们并不知道的信息。所以网页和app比我们想象的更了解我们。故本题答案因为b选项。
第47题 D 根据上文描述我们可知，因为我的兴趣爱好没有那么特殊，所以Facebook和我的朋友几乎都会推荐一样的内容。所以我的喜好会比我愿意相信的更容易预测。故D选项正确。
第48题 A 根据后文的解释，美国高校老师的演讲中提到了you're not so special这句话。这是一种严厉的爱，也即为了对别人起到帮助而较为严厉地对待别人，此处指用这样的语言来劝说学生们不要因为竭力想要证明他们的“特别”和“重要”而感到痛苦。
第49题 A 根据上文我们可以知道，老师的演讲希望同学们不要因为竭力想要证明自己的特殊而感到痛苦。每个人不必费力去证明自己是宇宙的中心，是最重要的那个人。更不必因为这种挣扎而感到痛苦。
第50题 D 本题为文意理解题。根据上文我们可以知道，从一种更为广义的意义上来解释normal这个词，它代表着一种人人平等的观念。这不意味着负面消极的普通，也并不是对于一个人平平无奇的攻击。故从广义而言，人人是平等的，所以人人都是normal的。
第51题 A 由上一题承接逻辑，我们可以清楚的得到广义上的normal不等于平平无奇这一概念，而是一种平等的态度，一种平等的观念。这也是在此意义上normal的全部含义。
第52题 B 本题为文意理解题。根据上文的陈述以及合理的逻辑推测我们可知，我们其实没有我们想象的那么特别，我们对于艺术的品味和我们的兴趣爱好其实也并没有我们想象的那么极端。结合下文，我们认为的特别其实只是另外一种形式的normal。
第53题 D 根据上下文我们可知，此空需要填写的应该是个体的主观情感与想法，即认为自己是特殊的或认为自己的品味比较特别。
第54题 C 根据上一段的逻辑我们可知，其实任何一种形式的特别都是另一种形式的normal。所以不必为了使自己显得特别而费力挣扎，当感受到自己普通时也不必灰心丧气。
第55题 A 根据全文我们可知，人们都会被最基本的日常生活所影响，人们的头脑和思想也都是在相似的环境中形成。所以不必害怕普通。

Dear fellow students,
Nowadays, we have quick and easy access to information and communicate/interact with each other via /through the internet. However, the virtual world has also become a hotbed for uncivilized behaviors such as online bully or fraud (cheating / abuse / gossip/ rumor/scandal). Therefore, I call upon / appeal to all students to surf the internet in a civilized manner.
Here is how. Firstly, we need to use polite words such as ‘thank you, sorry to trouble, please,’ etc. on a regular basis to show others our respect and good online conducts. Secondly, use officially registered websites rather than unauthorized ones to keep online fishing or cheating at bay. Thirdly, once we spot any vulgar (obscene) or anti-social content, report it timely to the police or surveillance organizations so as to foster/promote a clean and unpolluted online environment.
Thanks for your cooperation.

On Christmas Eve, I placed the envelope on the tree with a note inside telling Mike what I had done and that this was his gift from me. His smile was the brightest thing about Christmas.

Ottens was busy with a reel-to-reel tape recorder（盘式磁带录音机） one night in the early 1960s, trying to listen to a work of classical music. He still remembered the hours he eventually spent on the machine because the loose tape would endlessly unravel（散开）from its reel. At the time, Ottens was head of product development at Philips's electronics factory in Belgium. The next morning, he gathered his team and insisted that they create something foolproof: The tape had to be enclosed, and the player had to fit in his jacket pocket.
Trying to imagine something that did not yet exist, Ottens used a small wooden block as the target for what the future of tape recording and playback should be. The "compact cassette" was made public to the world in 1963, and he advocated for Philips to license（批准）this new design to other producers for free, paving the way for cassettes to become a worldwide standard. Billions of cassettes were sold before his team jointly introduced the compact disc (CD) with Sony in 1982.
Ottens was an extraordinary man. As a child, he managed to build a radio that enabled his family to tune in to a London broadcaster that delivered speeches from exiled（流亡的））political leaders during the German occupation of the Netherlands in the 1940s.
Despite the remaking of the music industry in the digital and streaming age, the public's interest in cassettes has quickly grown in recent years. The return and growth of its popularity is believed to be driven by a mix of nostalgia（怀旧）and an appreciation for tapes' unique status as a format, which is flexible yet is also easily seen and touched.
In the 2017 film Cassette: a Documentary Mixtape, Ottens still seems surprised by the impact of the little device. "We knew it would be a success, "he says, "but not a revolution. "
24. What does the word "foolproof" in paragraph l refer to
A. User-friendly. B. Foolish. C. Typical. D. All-round.
25. Why did Philips agree to license cassette to other producers for free
A. They were warm-hearted to help others.
B. They could sell more cassettes worldwide.
C. They could get international help for CDs.
D. They would spare time for other advances.
26. What can we infer from the last 2 paragraphs
A. The digital music players have completely taken the place of cassettes.
B. The invention of cassette once had great effects on the music industry.
C. People now enjoy mixing digital music with nostalgic music.
D. Ottens knew the 2017 film about cassette would be successful.
27. What can we know about Ottens from the text
A. He is extraordinary and sceptical.
B. He is self-confident and withdrawn.
C. He is proud and has a strong hands-on ability.
D. He is creative and gifted for electronics.

During the COVD-19, some city buses and trains have run empty, while others have been crowded I Los Angeles, ridership on the LA Metro has dropped from about 12 million to around 4000 a weekday. Meanwhile, various lines in New York City have run at a dangerous capacity（容量）
To address this and other problems during COVID-19, some cities are tuning to programs called microtransit（微交通）. They oprate like Uber, but the technology companies create he digital routing the and ride-hailing（叫车）platforms for transport agencies. According to Jerome Mavaud, lead data was scientist with microtransit company Spare Labs, cities can use the platforms with public transport to he meet individual needs and to offer rides that can be more affordable than merely private operations. "Imagine Uber and a city bus had a baby, "Mayaud says.
Since the start of the COVD-19, cities have turned to microtransit to offer vital rides, like moving seniors or nurses to hospitals. Supporters of microtransit say the technology behind these apps could be used to combat COVD-19 in other ways. For instance, the apps could help track the spread of the disease and warm rider if they shared a ride with someone who later tested positive a tool called sold contact tracing（跟踪）. Another tool to reduce the spread of the disease is developed within the platforms themselves. Cities can set a rider maximum per trip- informing drivers not to pick up any more than that set umber-functionally enforcing social distance on the rides.
Experts are mixed on the proposals. Some say contact tracing disturbs privacy（隐私）. Others say microtransit could play a useful role as city streets begin t return to normal. It could replace some fixed-route transport route in the future. Further, one of microtransit's biggest strengths, normally, is getting people to and from bus and train stations, making it easier for people to use traditional public transport. I could also be used in rural areas with infrequent public transport service and large distances between stops.
28. Why is the programs of microtransit launched
A. To improve traffic efficiency. B. To remove COVID-19
C. To reduce traffic jams. D. To ensure road safety.
29. What's feature of microtransit
A. It is much cheaper than public transport.
B. It is mainly used to move people to hospitals
C. It is a service under the authority of Uber
D. It is public transport for private use
30. What's the main idea of Paragraph 3
A. What technology is behind microtransit.
B. How microtransit could help fight COVID-19.
C. Contact tracing helps reduce the spread of COVID-19.
D. Microtransit has become the main means of transport.
31. What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A. Microtransit has a promising future.
B. Microtransit will go out of use after COVID-19.
C. Microtransit will replace traditional public transport.
D. Microtransit has met with experts' general approval.

When Paul Greenberg's son turned 12, he was asking for a smartphone of his own. He challenged Greenberg's reasons for why it wasn't a good idea, pointing out his dad's own addiction to his phone. That's when Greenberg decided to replace his smartphone with an old-fashioned flip phone and focus on spending time with his son.
Greenberg ended up writing a delightful book about the transition, called "Goodbye Phone, Hello World:60 Was to Disconnect from Tech and Reconnect to Joy"—but it's different from what you might expect. It's not an essay on the evils（罪恶）of technology, but a brief, and practical guide on how to live without a smart phone.
The book is divided into chapters that explore the various aspects of your life that will improve when you reallocate your time, such as finding a sense of purpose, strengthening mind and body, building better relationships with friends, family, and lovers, and healing the environment. But first, it opens with a message that our screen addiction is not so much a result of weakness, but rather a carefully invented plan by many computer scientists far more knowledgeable than we are about our own brains and nature:
"I wanted to tell my son that people aren't addicted to screens because they're lazy, but instead because billions of dollars have been invested to make this outcome unavoidable. When you look into your phone, you think it's just your two eyes looking at a screen. What's really happening is that 10, 000 programmers' eyes are looking back at you, following you, tailoring your environment so that you'll keep looking.
"However, you can quit, refuse to play the game; and when you do, doors of opportunity open all around. "
This book is a pleasure to read. Its briefness is purposely suited to people who have lost their attention span（持续时间）, but wish to regain it. I know that when my kids get home from school later today, they won't see me on my phone. I'll leave it inside and take them out to play Frisbee. 32. What does the underlined word "transition" (in Paragraph 2) refer to
A. Say yes to flip phone, Say no to Smartphone.
B. Stop phone addiction, Set an example to children.
C. "Goodbye Phone, Hello World"-a delightful book.
D. Less time with smartphone, More time with children.
33. Which of the following topics is not covered in the book
A. interpersonal relationships B. environmental protection
C. social evils of technology D. physical and mental health
34. Which of the following statements about screen addiction might Greenberg agree with
A. Screen addiction is the direct result of people's weakness.
B. Screen addiction is a trick created by computer scientists.
C. Screen addiction is a sign of people's physical laziness.
D. Screen addiction is unavoidable and a waste of money.
35. What's the purpose of the passage
A. To recommend a delightful book to readers.
B. To persuade people to put down smartphones.
C. To explore the reasons behind screen addiction.
D. To suggest ways to reconnected to a joyful life.

Getting a Job in the Video Game Industry
When the video game industry started, the majority of the developers were programmers because they knew how to work in the language of the machines at the time. 36_______ Thus, game developers were no longer limited to excellent programmers.
You can start climbing the ladder as a tester. 37________ For a while, this path worked for quite some time, although many quickly realized that it wasn't the job they imagined it would be. It is almost impossible to progress from tech support into the development without higher level education and training in big development companies.
Getting a development position isn't just a matter of having some programming or art classes on your resume（简历）. 38_________You may prepare yourselves for such questions as∶ What games are out there that you've made Have you worked in a cooperative programming environment before Do you know how to write clean, concise, documented code
In fact, programming interviews frequently involve having to stand up in front of your potential coworkers at a whiteboard and solve logic or programming efficiency problems. Level designers and artists may have to talk about their work on a video project or in the same sort of environment. 39 you're not able to communicate with your potential colleagues, you may lose the chance at a job that you'd be perfect for.
The recent rise of independently developed and published games has opened a new path for those looking to get into the game industry. 40____________
It requires a significant investment of time, energy, resources, and a drive to face a very competitive market. And most importantly, it requires that you know how to fill, and despite this to get up and move on to the next project until you make it.
A. But this is not an easy route.
B. Testing games for money has been a dream job for countless teens.
C. Game development is not the thing you can just do in your bedroom.
D. Later on, other staff like artists became part of the development process
E. Many game companies now check for compatibility（相容性）with teammates.
F. So you can start by trying everything and then focus on what you enjoy most.
G. Long interview processes stand between gifted developers and their dreams of making games 第三部分 语言运用（共两节, 满分 30 分）

Among one of the strange experiences of modern life is one that happens to me, though not just to me: I’ll meet a friend for a drink and he will 41some book or product he thinks I’ll like. Then within days—without searching for it online-I'll start seeing 42 web ads for it.
43 there's a rumor that Facebook uses the microphone in your phone to eavesdrop（窃听）on your conversations.
However, that's almost certainly 44. The truth is that apps and websites have already collected so much of your data that they have no 45 for eavesdropping.
But there's another reason Big Tech 46 us so much better than we think, which is that each of us is far more normal than we realize. Take myself as an example: both Facebook and my friend will make almost the same recommendation because my interests are far less special, and thus more 47 than Id like to believe.
"You're not so special" is a message sometimes delivered as an offence. It is at other times interpreted as tough 48, as in the speech by the American high-school teacher David McCullough. His aim was to urge students not to make themselves painful by struggling to prove they're the 49 of the universe.
Given almost any general definition of the term and all things being 50, of course you're 51 . Your intelligence probably normal. Without any value judgment, that's all the word "normal" and your taste in culture: chances are they're much less 52 or extreme than you think. Or to put it another way:53 you're special is just one more way in which you're normal, which explains why most people think they're above average at many things.
Don't feel 54 by the thought of being normal, though. "Never forget that every mind 55 by the most ordinary experience, "wrote French poet Paul Valery.
41. A. purchase B. recommend C. mention D. present
42. A. targeted B. irrelevant C. classified D. misleading
43. A. No doubt B. No problem C. No use D. No wonder
44. A. alarming B. false C. obvious D. typical
45. A. sense B. way C. idea D. need
46. A. serves B. knows C. monitors D. commands
47. A. accessible B. reasonable C. acceptable D. predictable
48. A. love B. push C. warning D. decision
49. A. center B. part C. end D. master
50. A. effective B. different C. specific D. equal
51. A. means B. appears C. addresses D. violates
52. A. regular B. unusual C. precious D. competitive
53. A. knowing B. displaying C. wondering D. thinking

It's just a small, white envelope stuck among the branches of our Christmas tree. No name, no identification, just a short note inside which says what we have done to celebrate Christmas. It has stuck through the branches of our tree for the past 10 years or so.
It all began because my husband Mike hated Christmas—oh, not the true meaning of Christmas, but the commercial aspects of it—the overspending, the anxious running around at the last minute to get a tie for Uncle Harry and the dusting powder for Grandma—the gifts given in desperation because you couldn't think of anything else.
Knowing he felt this way, I decided one year to avoid the usual shirts, sweaters, ties, and so on. I reached for something special just for Mike. The idea came in an unusual way.
Our son Kevin, who was 12 that year, was wrestling（摔跤）at the junior level at the school he attended. Shortly before Christmas, there was a non-league match against a team supported by an inner-city church. These teenagers, dressed in sport shoes so ragged（破烂的）that shoestrings seemed to be the only thing holding them together, presented a sharp contrast（对 比） to our boys in their stylish blue and gold uniforms and new wrestling shoes. As the match began, I was alarmed to see that the other team was wrestling without headgear, a kind of light helmet designed to protect a wrestler's ears. Obviously, the poor team could not afford.
Well, we ended up defeating them. We took every weight class. And as each of their boys got up from the mat, he walked around in his rags with a kind of steet pride that couldn't acknowledge defeat.
Mike, seated beside me, shook his head sadly, "I wish just one of them could have won, "he said "They have a lot of potential, but losing like this could take the heart right out of them. "

阅读理解
A篇是一篇应用文，介绍了在印第安州阿米什地区4个渐渐被人们遗忘的地方和该地的特色与自然闲趣的生活方式，文章为总分总结构，条理清晰，理解容易。
B是一篇人物传记类文章，介绍了飞利浦比利时工厂主管Otten发明了盒式磁带的过程，同时对Otten这个杰出的人的简单介绍和盒式磁带对音乐方面的影响，难度中等。
C篇是一篇说明文，介绍了微交通的含义，着重介绍了微交通项目在新冠疫情背景下的重要意义，还谈及了专家对微交通的态度看法，文章结合实事，有一定难度。
D篇是一篇夹叙夹议类文章，介绍了保罗格林伯格在与儿子对手机使用的争论中的有趣且实用的观点，并把之写成一本书，重点介绍了这本书《再见手机，你好世界：60种与科技断开连接，重连快乐的方法》，难度中等。
详细解析：
A篇
第21题 D 推断题。文章主要介绍了印第安州阿米什地区4个充满优美景色和自然闲趣的地方，再结合文章最后，这里的人们都过着简单的生活，所以这篇文章是写给自然爱好者的。
第22题 C 细节题。由文章倒数第三段可知，在这个地方可以看到手工制作的阿米什棉被摆在眼前，观看其他传统工艺的演示，故选该段对应小标题Watch skillful hands do the work of the seasons。
第23题 B 概括题。从文章第一段和最后一段这两总段可知，这里的人们过着简单安静的生活，重点在第一段，peaceful原词重现，left behind对应过时的，A项advanced明显错误，C项那里的人们是勤劳的而非懒惰的。
B篇
第24题 A 词义猜测题。第一段首先说明了Otten听一首音乐作品的艰难，因此他召集他的团队坚持要求创造一些万无一失的东西，可以封闭起来，可以使球员放在他的夹克口袋里，这些使与他上文听音乐的艰难对比的，可以推测出这个东西是用户友好的。
第25题 B 细节题。由文章第二段可知，他主张飞利浦免费向其他生产商许可，这为盒式磁带成为世界标准铺平了道路，因此售出了数十亿盒磁带，故这样做的目的是在全球销售更多的盒式磁带。
第26题 B 推断题。由倒数二段可知，近年来公众对盒式磁带的兴趣迅速增长，它的流行和发展被认为是由怀旧的混合驱动的，这种形式灵活，但也很容易被看到和触摸，Otten对这个小装置的影响感到惊讶，所以这一发明对音乐产业产生巨大影响，是音乐更加容易被听到。
第27题 D 总结概括题。文章主要介绍了飞利浦比利时工厂主管Otten发明盒式磁带的过程，其中还提及了当他还小的时候就创造出了收音机收听到了广播，从中可以概括出他是一个具有创造力和在电子方面有天赋的人。
C篇
第28题 A 推断题。由第一段和第二段可知，为了解决像新冠疫情导致客流量急剧减少
所带来的交通路线问题，开展微交通项目，所以微交通更好的适应了这种客流量减少的更加个人化路线的问题，这种做法提高了交通效率，BCD明显错误。
第29题 D 细节题。由文章第二段后半部分可知，微交通可以利用公共交通平台来满足个人需求，并提供比私人运营更实惠的交通工具，故D正确，A是它比私人运营便宜，B于文无据，C是像Uber一样运营。
第30题 B 概括题。文章第三段主要讲述了微交通项目在新冠疫情背景的重要意义，帮助降低通过公共交通感染新冠的可能性，故第三段主旨是介绍微交通如何对抗新冠疫情。
第31题 A 推断题。文章最后一段介绍了专家对微交通的褒贬看法，但是无论看法，未来微交通会继续发挥作用，并取代一些固定路线的交通方式，故可以从最后一段推断出微交通的广阔前景。
D篇
第32题 D 细节题。划线词处的句子为上一段的进一步阐述，划线词明显指代上一段最后那位父亲的变化：用老式翻盖手机取代智能手机，专心和儿子在一起，故选D。
第33题 C 细节题。由文章第三段可知，这本书分为几个章节，探讨当重新分配时间时，生活的各个方面都会有所改善，比如找到目标感，增强身心，与朋友、家人和爱人建立更好的关系，以及改善环境，故选C技术的社会弊端并未涉及。
第34题 B 推断题。由文章第四段可知，作者认为人们对屏幕上瘾不是因为他们懒惰，而是因为数十亿美元的投资使这种结果不可避免，背后的程序员会根据你的浏览不断推荐相似的内容，所以推断出屏幕成瘾是计算机科学家发明的一种把戏。
第35题 A 主旨大意题。文章主要介绍了《再见手机，你好世界：60种与科技断开连接，重连快乐的方法》这本有趣的书的创作背景、主要内容和意义价值，重点在书而非屏幕成瘾。
7选5阅读
答案：36-40 DBGEA
本文用生动形象的语言为读者介绍了视频游戏行业就业所必需的素质与要求，告知了读者想要进入这个行业所需的努力。文章内容清晰有力，具有启发意义。
详细解析：
第36题 D 本题为文意理解题。根据下文我们可知，游戏开发者现在已经不仅仅被局限于优秀的程序员，也即更多其它职业的人参与进入了游戏开发中。答案中只有D选项提及了相关意思，同时第四段中的”artist”也与本题选项中的artist这一职业相呼应。故本题答案为D。
第37题 B 本题为上下文推断题。根据上下文我们可知，虽然我们人人都可以作为测试员开始在游戏视频行业中的旅程，但是渐渐会发现和预想的不同，往后更多的开发与技术支持都需要接受更高的教育以及在大公司训练的经验。由此我们可以推知空缺处涉及的主体应该是不具备上述经历的人。一般为初出茅庐的青少年，他们渴望作为测试员进入行业。故本题答案为B。
第38题 G 根据上下文我们可知，单单拥有编程或艺术学科学习的经历并不完全足够，面试官还会在面试时提出诸多疑问，面试者需要具备可以自如应答的能力，这也是一个区分点，有助于逐梦。故本题答案为G。
第39题 E 根据上文我们可知，编程面试同时要求在潜在同事前解决逻辑或编程效率问题。也即和组员需要具备和同事融洽地进行沟通、合作这一能力，否则就面临着失业的危险。故本题答案为E。
第40题 A 根据上下文可知，最近独立开发并发布的游戏为想要进入游戏行业的人提供了一种新的通路。但后文又告诉我们，它需要投入大量的时间、精力和资源，以及面对竞争十分激烈的市场的驱动力、不惧怕失败的努力等等。故我们可以发现这也并不是一条十分简单的道路，同样需要付出很多。故本题答案为A。

答案：41-45 BADBD 46-50 BDAAD 51-55 ABDCA
本文用自己的例子引入，同时使用具有感染力的语言向读者讲述了正确处理“特别”与“普通”之间的关系。同时，我们也需要以辩证和客观的态度去对待特别与普通之间的关系。文章结构较为清晰。
详细解析：
第41题 B 根据下文可知，”that he thinks I'll like”也即他会向我推荐一些他认为我会喜欢的书或是产品。
第42题 A 根据上下文可知，作者提到了窃听问题，也即在友人推荐之后，即使作者没有在网上搜索这些被推荐的东西，网页也会推送相关的广告。BCD选项均与句意相反，而A选项为“定向的”之意，符合题意。
第43题 D 根据上下文推断，上下文之间有逻辑顺承关系，故此处答案应为”no wonder”，也即“难怪”之意。
第44题 B 根据前文表转折的“however”以及后文的"they have already collected so much of your data."可知监听这一说法并不成立，app和网页已经没有窃听的必要。
第45题 D 根据上文陈述可知，收集了足够数据的app和网页已经没有窃听的必要，故此处答案应为“need”。
第46题 B 根据上文我们可知，网页和app会给我们推送各种各样我们以为他们并不知道的信息。所以网页和app比我们想象的更了解我们。故本题答案因为b选项。
第47题 D 根据上文描述我们可知，因为我的兴趣爱好没有那么特殊，所以Facebook和我的朋友几乎都会推荐一样的内容。所以我的喜好会比我愿意相信的更容易预测。故D选项正确。
第48题 A 根据后文的解释，美国高校老师的演讲中提到了you're not so special这句话。这是一种严厉的爱，也即为了对别人起到帮助而较为严厉地对待别人，此处指用这样的语言来劝说学生们不要因为竭力想要证明他们的“特别”和“重要”而感到痛苦。
第49题 A 根据上文我们可以知道，老师的演讲希望同学们不要因为竭力想要证明自己的特殊而感到痛苦。每个人不必费力去证明自己是宇宙的中心，是最重要的那个人。更不必因为这种挣扎而感到痛苦。
第50题 D 本题为文意理解题。根据上文我们可以知道，从一种更为广义的意义上来解释normal这个词，它代表着一种人人平等的观念。这不意味着负面消极的普通，也并不是对于一个人平平无奇的攻击。故从广义而言，人人是平等的，所以人人都是normal的。
第51题 A 由上一题承接逻辑，我们可以清楚的得到广义上的normal不等于平平无奇这一概念，而是一种平等的态度，一种平等的观念。这也是在此意义上normal的全部含义。
第52题 B 本题为文意理解题。根据上文的陈述以及合理的逻辑推测我们可知，我们其实没有我们想象的那么特别，我们对于艺术的品味和我们的兴趣爱好其实也并没有我们想象的那么极端。结合下文，我们认为的特别其实只是另外一种形式的normal。
第53题 D 根据上下文我们可知，此空需要填写的应该是个体的主观情感与想法，即认为自己是特殊的或认为自己的品味比较特别。
第54题 C 根据上一段的逻辑我们可知，其实任何一种形式的特别都是另一种形式的normal。所以不必为了使自己显得特别而费力挣扎，当感受到自己普通时也不必灰心丧气。
第55题 A 根据全文我们可知，人们都会被最基本的日常生活所影响，人们的头脑和思想也都是在相似的环境中形成。所以不必害怕普通。

这篇语法填空以麻疹为例，提出了现在越来越多的人不接种麻疹疫苗出于对疫苗的不信任或者网络传播不实消息迅速的原因，呼吁能有更多的人接种疫苗，文章比较难懂。第60和62题算难题。
详细解析:(语法填空比较简单，只做难题解析)
第60题 人们犹豫或者不愿意打疫苗，从某种程度上伤害了我们已经取得的抗击疾病的成果。已经取得用has made
第62题 如果一个疾病变得没有那么普遍，那么人们在衡量打疫苗利弊时，倾向于选择不大，这是一种条件与假设，用if.

1、应用文写作：
A.
Dear fellow students,
Nowadays, we have quick and easy access to information and communicate/interact with each other via /through the internet. However, the virtual world has also become a hotbed for uncivilized behaviors such as online bully or fraud (cheating / abuse / gossip/ rumor/scandal). Therefore, I call upon / appeal to all students to surf the internet in a civilized manner.
Here is how. Firstly, we need to use polite words such as ‘thank you, sorry to trouble, please,’ etc. on a regular basis to show others our respect and good online conducts. Secondly, use officially registered websites rather than unauthorized ones to keep online fishing or cheating at bay. Thirdly, once we spot any vulgar (obscene) or anti-social content, report it timely to the police or surveillance organizations so as to foster/promote a clean and unpolluted online environment.
Thanks for your cooperation.

That's when the idea for his present came. The next day, I went to a sporting goods shop and bought a variety of wrestling headgear and shoes and sent them anonymously to the inner-city church. I hoped these Christmas presents would not only light up their day, but also help protect them against injuries. On Christmas Eve, I placed the envelope on the tree with a note inside telling Mike what I had done and that this was his gift from me. His smile was the brightest thing about Christmas.
For each Christmas, the envelope has become the tradition of our family.On Christmas morning, my son would stand with wide-eyed expectation as their dad lifted the envelope from the tree to reveal its contents. Over the years, I had done many good deeds, ranging from helping out in orphanage to caring for the elderly in nursing homes. Gradually, my son and husband followed suit. My envelope was joined by two more. The tradition has grown and someday will expand even further with our grandchildren.
