Widely known as a land of song and dance, melons and fruits, precious stones, and carpets, Xinjiang was not only a key link on the Silk Road and a hub for east-west cultural exchanges in ancient times, but also a region with beautiful lakes worth visiting.
Karakul Lake
The Karakul is a lake in Akto County along the highway, located 196 km from Kashgar City. Karakul is a very unusual plateau lake. In fact, it is the highest lake of the Pamir Plateau, at an altitude of 3,600 m. The view is breathtaking, thanks to the surrounding, snow-covered mountains and beautiful reflections in the crystal-clear water. On a clear day, the scenery is rather picturesque. Besides the amazing water reflections, goats, yaks and sheep make the experience more attractive and real.
Tianchi (Heavenly) Lake
Tianchi Lake, also known as Heavenly Lake, is located on the northern side of the Bogeda Peak in the Tianshan mountains. It is 120 km from Urumqi City and only a 90-minute drive, and the center of the Tianchi scenic area of amazing contrasts — an alpine (高山的) lake at an altitude of 1,980 m with shiny glaciers on the mountain peaks nearby when the sun is shining.
Kanas Lake
Kanas Lake is in the Kanas Geopark and is mainly made up of Crouching Dragon Bay, Moon Bay, Immortal Bay and the interesting mystery of the legendary big red monster fish! The water, surrounded by snow-covered mountains, decorates the world like a diamond. The best time to visit Immortal Bay is in the early morning when the area is often covered by thin white mist, giving you a fairy world to enjoy. Walking along the river from Moon Bay to Crouching Dragon Bay is another highlight and offers numerous photographic opportunities.

Students leave college without graduating for a variety of reasons. Berklee Online’s Degree Completion program offers them a road back.
When A. David Ucci left Berklee College of Music in 1994, he was six credits shy of graduating. But the music production and engineering student was offered an opportunity he couldn’t miss: an assistant engineering position at the Hit Factory, which got 41 Grammy nominations (提名) that year. The decision was hard to make. Ucci would be leaving school, and he was also leaving behind a small production company he had formed with other Berklee students. Nevertheless, he left.
Berklee doesn’t want its students to regret anything. That’s why it offers something specifically for students like Ucci: Degree Completion. In the program, Berklee staff work closely with former students to create an individually tailored path to graduation.
Online classes are designed to allow a high level of engagement (参与) between teachers and students. Professor Kenn Brass offers internet “office hours” three times a week. Brass says he “pushes the envelope” for his students “every chance I get.” He knows from personal experience that college isn’t always a straight line from start to finish; it took him seven years to earn his bachelor’s degree from Governors State University.
For Ucci, not having a degree didn’t seem like a problem for a while. However, after he worked his way up to general manager of Guitar Center’s flagship store, he began to find it difficult to advance.
After Ucci graduated in 2019, he left Guitar Center for a director of sales position at a wine chain, a position he wouldn’t have even been qualified for without an undergraduate degree. Finishing his degree means his career options are no longer limited by a decision he made to follow his dreams more than 25 years ago.
“Education should be a lifelong effort,” says Carin Nuernberg, Berklee’s vice president of academic strategy. “I’m really proud of the fact that we’re helping students figure out that path to completion.”
24.Why did Ucci drop out of Berklee
A.He didn’t have enough credits.
B.He obtained a good job.
C.He was nominated for a Grammy.
D.He founded a company.
25.What is Brass’s attitude towards his students
A.Appreciative. B.Casual. C.Caring. D.Doubtful.
26.What did Ucci’s degree contribute to
A.His career development. B.His perfect sales skills.
C.His engagement in engineering. D.His devotion to education.
27.What is the purpose of the text
A.To advocate learning online. B.To share the experience of Ucci.
C.To introduce an online program. D.To stress the importance of a degree.
C
Following Cook’s death in 1779, the Endeavour journal of James Cook is thought to have been held by his wife Elizabeth. There is no record of the journal’s movements following Elizabeth Cook’s death in 1835 until its appearance in 1923 when it was offered at auction (拍卖) by its owners , the Bolckow family of Yorkshire. The family were unable to explain how they came to hold the journal. It had apparently been in the family’s library for over fifty years, having been purchased by the late Bolckow’s uncle, but from whom and in what circumstances is unknown.
On 21 March 1923 the Australian government purchased the Endeavour journal for 5000 for the Commonwealth Parliamentary Library.
The Mitchell Library, Sydney, had been chasing the journal since its discovery with the Bolckow family in 1922 before the auction, and had approached the Commonwealth Government for a financial contribution towards the purchase. Though Interim (临时的) Commonwealth Parliamentary Librarian Arthur Wadsworth had guaranteed the Mitchell that there would be no competition for the item, Kenneth Binns (to be Wadsworth’s successor) felt that the Endeavour journal was more suited to remain within the nation’s library.
Binns put forward an eventually persuasive argument that the Commonwealth could not finance the Mitchell, which was, after all, a private institution. Prime Minister Bruce telegraphed the officer in London to instruct the Mitchell Library’s Chief Librarian, already in England anticipating the auction, to bid on behalf of the Commonwealth. The Mitchell Library accepted upon the understanding that it would be the keeper of the journal until such time that the Commonwealth Government had a suitable storing place, a National Library.
Upon arrival in Australia the journal was exhibited in Queens Hall 9 Melbourne, for a month after which it was taken to the Mitchell Library which held it for four years, before it was removed to Canberra.
28.Who owned the Endeavour journal of James Cook at last
A.James Cook. B.Elizabeth Cook.
C.The Bolckow family of Yorkshire. D.The Australian government.
29.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to
A.Melbourne. B.The Mitchell Library.
C.The Commonwealth Government. D.Canberra.
30.What can you learn from the passage
A.Cook’s wife Elizabeth passed on the Endeavour journal to the Blockow family.
B.The Endeavour journal was on show in Melbourne before being taken to Sydney.
C.The Mitchell Library bought the Endeavour journal at its own expense.
D.The National Library of Australia is in Melbourne.
31.What does the passage mainly tell us
A.Who owns the Endeavour journal at present.
B.How the Endeavour journal came to the Mitchell Library of Sydney.
C.The Endeavour journal is very valuable for the Australian government.
D.How important the Endeavour journal is to Australian.
D
Sometimes the simplest solution is the best one. That seems to be the case when it comes to the issue of wind turbines (涡轮机)killing birds.
According to a study conducted at a wind farm on the Norwegian archipelago of Sm la, changing the color of a single blade(叶片)on a turbine from white to black resulted in a 70-percent drop in the number of bird deaths.
In the past few years there has been a huge increase in global wind power, with more than
60 GW of new generating capacity(发电量)added worldwide in 2019. If the turbines are placed correctly, wind power is cheaper, cleaner and more sustainable(可持续的). Not to mention that a turbine farm is easier on the eye than a huge power plant.
But these farms aren’t good for everybody - especially not for local bat and bird populations. The US Fish and Wildlife Service calculated that nearly 300,000 birds were killed by wind turbines in 2015, which is a lot fewer than those that die as a result of hitting electrical power lines each year. Yet it still remains an environmental issue, even as bird deaths from turbines seem to be going down as the industry moves to larger turbine blades that move more slowly.
Studies have suggested that birds may not be skillful at noticing obstructions to their flight path, and adding different colored fan blades can increase birds’ chances of spotting a rapidly turning fan.
At the Sm la wind farm, regular checks of four particular wind turbines found the four turbines killed 18 birds that flew into the blades over six years. In 2013, on each of the turbines in the test group, a single blade was painted black. Over the next three years, only six birds were found dead due to hitting the wind turbines.
Researchers said the results are a step in the right direction toward better, more sustainable treatment of our flying friends.
32.Why have wind turbines killed birds
A.Their blades are too large. B.They are too high in the sky.
C.They are too close to each other. D.Their colors are unnoticeable.
33.What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A.What future wind turbines will look like.
B.Why wind power is more and more popular.
C.How much wind power has been produced.
D.Which way of generating electricity is cheaper.
34.Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “obstructions” in paragraph 5
A.Ways. B.Sights. C.Guides. D.Blocks.
35.What can be inferred from the text
A.Man is learning to protect nature.
B.Birds like colorful things.
C.Birds are good at choosing flight routes.
D.Human activities lead to environmental problems.
第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）
根据短文内容，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。 Imagine a child standing on a diving board four feet high and asking himself the question: "Should I jump " This is what motivation or the lack of it can do. Motivation and goal setting are the two sides of the same coin. 36_________ Like the child on the diving board, you will stay undecided.
37________ More than that, how should you stay motivated to achieve the goal First, you need to evaluate yourself, your values, your strengths, your weaknesses, your achievements, your desires, etc. Only then should you set your goals.

Your personal circumstances are equally important. For example, you may want to be a pilot but can't become one because your eyesight is not good enough. 40_________ You should reassess your goals, and motivate yourself to set a fresh goal.
You will surely need to overcome some difficulties, some planned, but most unplanned. You cannot overcome them without ample motivation. Make sure that you plan for these difficulties at the time of setting your goals.
A. This can affect your work.
B. So how should you motivate yourself
C. However, this should not discourage you.
D. So why should we try to set specific goals

With the aim of raising students’ awareness of environmental protection, our school has held an activity themed “Zero Rubbish” , meaning that we should always keep the campus clean without throwing away rubbish here and there.
Last Friday afternoon, it was our turn to participate in the actively. After school my classmates and I went to pick up rubbish in sight and then sorted it out by classification standards, so that they could be recycled and reused.

Students leave college without graduating for a variety of reasons. Berklee Online’s Degree Completion program offers them a road back.
When A. David Ucci left Berklee College of Music in 1994, he was six credits shy of graduating. But the music production and engineering student was offered an opportunity he couldn’t miss: an assistant engineering position at the Hit Factory, which got 41 Grammy nominations (提名) that year. The decision was hard to make. Ucci would be leaving school, and he was also leaving behind a small production company he had formed with other Berklee students. Nevertheless, he left.
Berklee doesn’t want its students to regret anything. That’s why it offers something specifically for students like Ucci: Degree Completion. In the program, Berklee staff work closely with former students to create an individually tailored path to graduation.
Online classes are designed to allow a high level of engagement (参与) between teachers and students. Professor Kenn Brass offers internet “office hours” three times a week. Brass says he “pushes the envelope” for his students “every chance I get.” He knows from personal experience that college isn’t always a straight line from start to finish; it took him seven years to earn his bachelor’s degree from Governors State University.
For Ucci, not having a degree didn’t seem like a problem for a while. However, after he worked his way up to general manager of Guitar Center’s flagship store, he began to find it difficult to advance.
After Ucci graduated in 2019, he left Guitar Center for a director of sales position at a wine chain, a position he wouldn’t have even been qualified for without an undergraduate degree. Finishing his degree means his career options are no longer limited by a decision he made to follow his dreams more than 25 years ago.
“Education should be a lifelong effort,” says Carin Nuernberg, Berklee’s vice president of academic strategy. “I’m really proud of the fact that we’re helping students figure out that path to completion.”
24.Why did Ucci drop out of Berklee
A.He didn’t have enough credits.
B.He obtained a good job.
C.He was nominated for a Grammy.
D.He founded a company.
25.What is Brass’s attitude towards his students
A.Appreciative. B.Casual. C.Caring. D.Doubtful.
26.What did Ucci’s degree contribute to
A.His career development. B.His perfect sales skills.
C.His engagement in engineering. D.His devotion to education.
27.What is the purpose of the text
A.To advocate learning online. B.To share the experience of Ucci.
C.To introduce an online program. D.To stress the importance of a degree.

Following Cook’s death in 1779, the Endeavour journal of James Cook is thought to have been held by his wife Elizabeth. There is no record of the journal’s movements following Elizabeth Cook’s death in 1835 until its appearance in 1923 when it was offered at auction (拍卖) by its owners , the Bolckow family of Yorkshire. The family were unable to explain how they came to hold the journal. It had apparently been in the family’s library for over fifty years, having been purchased by the late Bolckow’s uncle, but from whom and in what circumstances is unknown.
On 21 March 1923 the Australian government purchased the Endeavour journal for 5000 for the Commonwealth Parliamentary Library.
The Mitchell Library, Sydney, had been chasing the journal since its discovery with the Bolckow family in 1922 before the auction, and had approached the Commonwealth Government for a financial contribution towards the purchase. Though Interim (临时的) Commonwealth Parliamentary Librarian Arthur Wadsworth had guaranteed the Mitchell that there would be no competition for the item, Kenneth Binns (to be Wadsworth’s successor) felt that the Endeavour journal was more suited to remain within the nation’s library.
Binns put forward an eventually persuasive argument that the Commonwealth could not finance the Mitchell, which was, after all, a private institution. Prime Minister Bruce telegraphed the officer in London to instruct the Mitchell Library’s Chief Librarian, already in England anticipating the auction, to bid on behalf of the Commonwealth. The Mitchell Library accepted upon the understanding that it would be the keeper of the journal until such time that the Commonwealth Government had a suitable storing place, a National Library.
Upon arrival in Australia the journal was exhibited in Queens Hall 9 Melbourne, for a month after which it was taken to the Mitchell Library which held it for four years, before it was removed to Canberra.
28.Who owned the Endeavour journal of James Cook at last
A.James Cook. B.Elizabeth Cook.
C.The Bolckow family of Yorkshire. D.The Australian government.
29.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to
A.Melbourne. B.The Mitchell Library.
C.The Commonwealth Government. D.Canberra.
30.What can you learn from the passage
A.Cook’s wife Elizabeth passed on the Endeavour journal to the Blockow family.
B.The Endeavour journal was on show in Melbourne before being taken to Sydney.
C.The Mitchell Library bought the Endeavour journal at its own expense.
D.The National Library of Australia is in Melbourne.
31.What does the passage mainly tell us
A.Who owns the Endeavour journal at present.
B.How the Endeavour journal came to the Mitchell Library of Sydney.
C.The Endeavour journal is very valuable for the Australian government.
D.How important the Endeavour journal is to Australian.
D
Sometimes the simplest solution is the best one. That seems to be the case when it comes to the issue of wind turbines (涡轮机)killing birds.
According to a study conducted at a wind farm on the Norwegian archipelago of Sm la, changing the color of a single blade(叶片)on a turbine from white to black resulted in a 70-percent drop in the number of bird deaths.
In the past few years there has been a huge increase in global wind power, with more than
60 GW of new generating capacity(发电量)added worldwide in 2019. If the turbines are placed correctly, wind power is cheaper, cleaner and more sustainable(可持续的). Not to mention that a turbine farm is easier on the eye than a huge power plant.
But these farms aren’t good for everybody - especially not for local bat and bird populations. The US Fish and Wildlife Service calculated that nearly 300,000 birds were killed by wind turbines in 2015, which is a lot fewer than those that die as a result of hitting electrical power lines each year. Yet it still remains an environmental issue, even as bird deaths from turbines seem to be going down as the industry moves to larger turbine blades that move more slowly.
Studies have suggested that birds may not be skillful at noticing obstructions to their flight path, and adding different colored fan blades can increase birds’ chances of spotting a rapidly turning fan.
At the Sm la wind farm, regular checks of four particular wind turbines found the four turbines killed 18 birds that flew into the blades over six years. In 2013, on each of the turbines in the test group, a single blade was painted black. Over the next three years, only six birds were found dead due to hitting the wind turbines.
Researchers said the results are a step in the right direction toward better, more sustainable treatment of our flying friends.
32.Why have wind turbines killed birds
A.Their blades are too large. B.They are too high in the sky.
C.They are too close to each other. D.Their colors are unnoticeable.
33.What is paragraph 3 mainly about
A.What future wind turbines will look like.
B.Why wind power is more and more popular.
C.How much wind power has been produced.
D.Which way of generating electricity is cheaper.
34.Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “obstructions” in paragraph 5
A.Ways. B.Sights. C.Guides. D.Blocks.
35.What can be inferred from the text
A.Man is learning to protect nature.
B.Birds like colorful things.
C.Birds are good at choosing flight routes.
D.Human activities lead to environmental problems.

With the aim of raising students’ awareness of environmental protection, our school has held an activity themed “Zero Rubbish” , meaning that we should always keep the campus clean without throwing away rubbish here and there.
Last Friday afternoon, it was our turn to participate in the actively. After school my classmates and I went to pick up rubbish in sight and then sorted it out by classification standards, so that they could be recycled and reused.
In brief, not only did the activity refresh our campus but also cultivated our sense of green life, so I suggest the activity should be continued.
