Many graduation ceremonies look different.But for Melody,it looked different because of the classmate who graduated alongside her — her grandmother,75-year-old Pat Ormond.They both went to the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga(UTC) and graduated together.
Pat took her first college class 42 years ago.After one semester,she dropped out to move to Chattanooga,where she spent the next several decades working as an accountant and raising a family.While she did take an occasional class at UTC,she said her family continued to encourage her to go back to finish her degree,especially after she retired.She agreed when her granddaughter decided to move to study psychology at UTC after a year at Berea College.They both entered UTC with enough college credits to make graduating together a possibility.
Pat and Melody graduated on November 20 as part of UTC’s 2020 class.The achievement has also made Pat somewhat of a celebrity.
“We are so proud to have graduates like Melody and her grandmother,Pat Ormond,in the UTC class of 2020,” said Steven,UTC Chancellor,“Together,they personify the determination,commitment and love for lifelong learning we encourage in every UTC graduate.”
Pat hopes that she can be an example to other non-traditional college students who want to get their degrees.“Learning never stops,” Pat said.“That’s something that my father taught me when I was young.No matter what you do,learning never stops.” Pat isn’t planning to stop anytime soon.She’s already working on another degree—a bachelor’s degree in history.
Meanwhile,her granddaughter,who is hunting jobs,is interested in getting a master’s degree in clinical psychology so she can become a lawyer.But she says she’s in no rush.Her grandmother has taught her that she has plenty of time.

No matter how advanced technology gets,it can never be a substitute for good doctors and medical workers.During this year alone,healthcare professionals from all over the world have been putting themselves in a harmful way to treat COVID-19 patients.In times like this it is more important than ever that everyone has access to a doctor.But,according to statistics from the WHO,China has 19.79 medical doctors per 10,000 people,the US has 26.12,and the UK has 27.86.
However,the rise of telemedicine allows doctors to make better use of their time and provides better healthcare access,especially for those in rural areas.Telemedicine is the remote delivery of healthcare services,including online consultations and diagnoses,and remote patient monitoring.
According to the World Economic Forum,“Nearly every other industry adopted widespread use of conference calls,and more recently,used video chats in order to cooperate remotely,while healthcare providers and patients both hesitated to adopt these tools to deliver healthcare.” However,COVID-19 could push them to adopt the new approach.Having one of the best healthcare systems in the world,Switzerland already offers virtual video appointments for private patients,and with cloud computing,this care can go even further.
With patient data being stored in the cloud,medical records can be easily shared and updated by all healthcare providers when required.With the addition of powerful cloud networks,wearable technology,such as bracelets,can monitor a patient’s key signs from their homes,removing the need for hospital care.
Seema,administrator of Medicare and Medicaid Center,told the Wall Street Journal,“The arrival of telehealth has been just completely speeded,and it’s taken this crisis to push us to a new frontier.” Indeed,telemedicine will have a huge effect on medical care,allowing for more personalized treatment of patients after COVID-19 has relieved.
8.What services does telemedicine not offer to online patients
A.Online operations. B.Online consultations.
C.Remote patient monitoring. D.Virtual video appointments.
9.What is Seema’s attitude towards the future of telemedicine
A.Worried. B.Doubtful.
C.Optimistic. D.Cautious.
10.What can we infer from the text
A.The number of medical doctors per 10,000 is relatively small in China.
B.The US has the largest number of medical doctors in the world.
C.Only Switzerland has the most developed medical system in the world.
D.Conference calls and video chats have been used widely in telemedicine.
11.Which of the following can be the best title for this text
A.The Side Effects of COVID-19 B.Online Medical Care
C.The Shortage of Medical Care D.The Advanced Medical Technology

When Harrison School District 2 turned to e-learning last spring,they made sure to provide each student with a laptop and the tools needed to succeed at home.But one remaining need in many families was Internet access.
Christine O’Brien,spokesperson for District 2 said,“When you had many people learning and working from home,sometimes there were Internet glitches.We wanted to avoid that and make sure students in our district could have equal chances to learn and that our families could learn from home as well.”
O’Brien said that this year they made sure to survey each of their students to see who exactly needed the Internet.
“This year we were really specific about asking whether families had Internet service at home without a phone,” she said.They discovered that about a thousand families needed some sort of Internet connection.
And that’s where Altia came into play.A local software company heard there was an Internet shortage for students and it stepped in to see how they could help.Teaming up with local foundations(基金会),they were able to provide a monthly Internet service that allows many people to have Internet access at the same time.Mike Juran,CEO of Altia said,“At Altia we talked to Randy Rocha at District 2 and I just put out an email to friends and people that I knew and that made its way back to Pikes Peak Community Foundation and Norwood Foundation and people spread that around.Within weeks we were able to get something done.”
“The community came together and helped us piece this part.We worked so hard as a school district to get those devices into the hands of students but this was a piece that we weren’t ready to do.We hadn’t budgeted(预算) for it,so the community’s coming together to help our families in this way was really truly amazing,” said O’Brien.
12.What does the underlined word “glitches” in paragraph 2 mean
A.Users. B.Services.
C.Problems. D.Repairmen.
13.What did Harrison School District 2 do according to O’Brien
A.They kept track of students’ situations.
B.They sold laptops to students cheaply.
C.They kept holding new learning programs.
D.They encouraged students to treat each other equally.
14.How did Altia help to make e-learning easier
A.By visiting the families every month.
B.By sending emails to students every week.
C.By setting up a local foundation to raise money.
D.By offering Internet service to students in need.
15.Why was O’Brien so thankful for the community
A.It inspired students to be helpful and active.
B.It helped deliver devices to the hands of students.
C.It added a big part to the school’s planned budget.
D.It solved things the school district was unprepared for.

If your family or friends love to bike,then a bike trip makes a perfect vacation. 16 Because you move more slowly on a bike,you have a chance to really sink into your environment,observing wildlife and views that you might miss otherwise.
17 If you have unskilled bikers or kids in your group,you’ll probably all be the happiest if you keep your mile goals fairly modest.But a group of more experienced bikers can make more serious mile goals.
An easy way to travel is to camp along the way.You can book campsites ahead of time at campgrounds along the way,and ride into camp as late as you like. 18 Invest in a light-weight tent,and light-weight inflatable pads(充气垫) under your sleeping bag.
If you’re going to be traveling on trails(小径),you’ll want to ride a mountain bike during your trip.On the other hand,if your route is wholly along roads,you can ride a lighter-weight street bike.Or,you can put heavier-weight tires on a street bike. 19
If you have a lot of time,you can cover quite a bit of distance.Over the course of a long trip,you’ll get stronger and you’ll be able to go further in one day. 20 You might want to rest a day or two early in your travels to give your body some rest.
A.Biking is becoming more and more popular.
B.Avoiding hurt is another thing you should concern.
C.Keep in mind that some camping equipment is heavy.
D.Check in with your local bike shop for suggestions on tire weight.
E.However,remember that early in the trip you’ll start every day feeling tired.
F.Seeing the world from the seat of a bike is a wonderful way to experience new places.
G.As you plan your trip,the biggest decision to make is how far you’d like to travel each day.

Salt is everywhere.Even if you can’t taste it,chances are good that it’s in everything from your breakfast oatmeal to the salad you brought for lunch.According to the FDA,Americans eat 36. average 3,400 milligrams of sodium,a chemical element 37.

It wasn’t always that way,though.Salt 41.(be) around for thousands of years,and it was once so 42. (value) that people traded it ounce-per-ounce with gold.Wars 43.

(2021·山东潍坊模拟)
I’d been invited to join a group of people who took water and breakfast to a local park where day laborers gathered,hoping to be chosen for work.My friend Kim and I spoke with a Mexican man in his forties named Natal,wearing a T-shirt and faded jeans.Next to him,on the low wall where he sat,rested a large backpack and a bedroll.
We had a wonderful conversation,ranging from the difficulty of finding work to artwork,from Santa Fe history to Natal’s “beautiful home,” as he described it.Natal told us of his travels in search of work.He had traveled all over the US and Canada,taking jobs where he found them,meeting people,and seeing the sights.He told us he’d especially loved Oregon.
He was filled with praise,too,for the beauty of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains outside Santa Fe and for all the history in the town.We agreed that the area was extremely beautiful.He grinned and told us it was important to appreciate beauty.Then,he invited us to visit him in his home in the mountains.He wanted to show us the beauty of the trees and have us smell the freshness in the mountains.He wanted to be a good host.
We continued to talk and it became clear that Natal’s “home” was a clearing under the trees.His bed was the bedroll he carried with him,spread on the ground under the starlight.He loved it there and wanted to share it with us.We declined,telling him that we were honored by the invitation,but that our classes would keep us too busy to make the trip.
Natal’s love of his “home” was in sharp contrast to my complaint about the water in my pipes not heating up fast enough,about my bedroom ceiling being too low,about not having central air conditioning,about my lack of a fenced yard.How annoying I was!If I was amazed by his appreciation for everything he had,I was completely floored(击倒) by what happened next.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
I have always hated socks and it was a warm June day,so I was wearing no socks.
He thought I felt his socks weren’t good enough for me.
参考答案
【语篇解读】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了图书馆的一些相关规定和开放时间等信息。
1.B 细节理解题。根据The COVID-19 safety measures部分第三点“Food is not allowed in our libraries.(我们的图书馆不允许食物进入)”可知,在图书馆吃三明治会让你被赶出图书馆。
2.D 细节理解题。根据About opening hours部分第一点“The library is open from 8 a.m.to 10 p.m.on weekdays and from 7 a.m.to 11 p.m.on weekends.(图书馆平日上午8点到晚上10点开放,周末上午7点到晚上11点开放)”以及第四点中“Library staff’s service is available until 8 p.m. every day(图书馆员工服务持续到每天晚上8点)”可知,周六的员工服务持续13个小时。
3.B 细节理解题。根据Fine rates and lost books部分最后一点“Tell us if you’ve lost a book and we’ll let you know the replacement cost.(如果你丢了书,请告诉我们,我们会告诉你更换费用)”可知,如果你丢了一本书,你需要支付更换费用。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了田纳西大学毕业生Melody和自己75岁的祖母Pat Ormond一起从大学毕业的故事。
4.D 细节理解题。根据第一段中“But for Melody,it looked different because of the classmate who graduated alongside her—her grandmother,75-year-old Pat Ormond.They both went to the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga(UTC) and graduated together.(但对Melody来说,情况就不一样了,因为和她一起毕业的同学是她75岁的祖母Pat Ormond。她们都是查塔努加的田纳西大学的毕业生)”可知,Melody的毕业典礼特别之处是她的祖母和她一起毕业。
5.A 词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“the determination,commitment and love for lifelong learning we encourage in every UTC graduate”可知,UTC负责人说Melody和祖母代表了决心、承诺和对终身学习的热爱,这是他们鼓励每一位毕业生所具有的品质,故画线词意思是“代表”,故选A项。
6.B 推理判断题。根据第二段中“While she did take an occasional class at UTC,she said her family continued to encourage her to go back to finish her degree,especially after she retired.”可知,Pat的家庭互相支持和鼓励。
7.C 推理判断题。文章主要讲述了田纳西大学毕业生Melody和自己75岁的祖母Pat Ormond一起从大学毕业的故事。由此推知,Pat Ormond的故事告诉我们“活到老,学到老”的道理。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。如今医生被认为比以往任何时候都重要,但是医生人数往往有限,文章主要介绍了远程医疗的优势和可以提供的服务,以及人们对它的看法。
8.A 细节理解题。根据第二段中“...including online consultations and diagnoses,and remote patient monitoring.”以及第三段中“...offers virtual video appointments for private patients”可知,远程医疗可以为患者提供在线咨询、患者远程监护和虚拟视频预约服务,不提供在线手术。
9.C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“‘The arrival of telehealth has been just completely speeded,and it’s taken this crisis to push us to a new frontier.’ Indeed,telemedicine will have a huge effect on medical care,allowing for more personalized treatment of patients after COVID-19 has relieved.”可知,Seema对远程医疗的未来持乐观态度。
10.A 推理判断题。根据第一段中“But,according to statistics from the WHO,China has 19.79 medical doctors per 10,000 people,the US has 26.12,and the UK has 27.86.”可知,中国每万人中医生的人数相对较少。
11.B 主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了远程医疗的优势和可以提供的服务,以及人们对它的看法。B选项“在线医疗”最符合文章标题。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇新闻报道。短文介绍了社区齐心协力帮助学生解决在线学习时遇到的网络问题。
12.C 词义猜测题。根据第一段中“But one remaining need in many families was Internet access.”和第二段中的“We wanted to avoid that and make sure students in our district could have equal chances to learn...”可知,很多人在家学习和工作时,有时会出现网络问题。故画线词与problems同义。
13.A 细节理解题。由第三段“O’Brien said that this year they made sure to survey each of their students to see who exactly needed the Internet.” 以及下文的内容可知,哈里森第二校区调查了解了学生的具体情况。
14.D 细节理解题。根据第五段中“Teaming up with local foundations,they were able to provide a monthly Internet service that allows many people to have Internet access at the same time.”可知,Altia公司通过与当地的基金会合作,为有需求的学生提供必要的网络服务。
15.D 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“but this was a piece that we weren’t ready to do.We hadn’t budgeted for it,so the community’s coming together to help our families in this way was really truly amazing,”可知,社区帮助哈里森第二校区解决了他们未做准备的事情。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了自行车旅行这种旅行方式。就如何计划自行车旅行、自行车的选择等问题提出了一些建议。
16.F 根据下文“Because you move more slowly on a bike,you have a chance to really sink into your environment,observing wildlife and views that you might miss otherwise.”可知,F项“坐在自行车上看世界也是一种体验新地方的奇妙的方式”符合语境。
17.G 下文提到“如果你的团队里有不熟练的自行车手或孩子,那么骑行里程的目标定得很低的话,你可能会感到最快乐。但是一群更有经验的自行车骑手可以制定更严格的旅程目标。”由此可知,该段是在讲关于骑行的目标制定的问题。G项“当你计划你的旅行时,你要做的最大的决定是你每天想要骑行多远”符合语境。
18.C 根据上文“An easy way to travel is to camp along the way.”以及下文“Invest in a light-weight tent,and light-weight inflatable pads under your sleeping bag.”可知,本段在讲露营设备的问题。C项“请记住,某些露营设备很重”可承接上下文。
19.D 上文提到选择更重的轮胎,那么本句承接上文说明可以向自行车商店查询轮胎重量的建议。故D项“向你当地的自行车商店查询轮胎重量的建议”符合语境。
20.E 上文提到“如果你有足够的时间,你可以骑行很远的距离。在数周的旅行过程当中,你会变得更强壮,一天之内也能够骑行得更远。”下文提到“你可能想要在旅途中早休息一两天,让你的身体得到一些休息。”由此可知,上下文含有转折关系,E项符合语境。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过讲述作者为创造新的生活而改造自己房子的经历,呼吁那些愿意倾听的人,不要再等待,立即行动起来。
21.B 根据下文“empty nesters in their sixties weren’t supposed to need a...”可知,显然(obviously)60多岁的空巢老人不需要更大的房子。
22.D 上文提到,作者打算把两层的老房子改造成多三个房间的新房子,但这个打算遭到了反对,因为60多岁的空巢老人不需要更大的(larger)房子。
23.C 根据下文“of what our life would be like”可知,此处指医生在描述作者他们未来生活的图像,lay out the picture of可理解为“描绘……的图像”。
24.A 根据“as his illness...,I saw our future die”可知,随着作者丈夫病情的发展(advanced),他们将没有未来。
25.D 根据下文“living in our home the way it had been”可知,这里指继续像以前那样住在家里,continue符合语境。
26.C 根据下文“a new life for us by myself”并结合下文作者改造房子可知,作者想自己创造(create)一个新生活。
27.A 根据下文“for the work to begin”可知,作者渴望改造工作开始。be eager for“渴望……”。
28.B 根据“I was blessed with a talented and capable contractor who...the difficult building”可知,此处指承包商接手了(took on)改造作者家这份困难的工作。
29.D 第一段提到作者要改造房子,所以此处指房屋的建造工作(construction)花费了八个月。
30.A 根据上文“We lived on site throughout the whole process”可知,作者住在施工现场的目的是为了看着自己的梦想成真。
31.B 根据下文“My new home has now...a palace,”可知,指新家成了(become)一座宫殿。
32.C 作者的新家现在成了一座宫殿,这儿不仅对她,对家人和朋友来说,每周都有新的回忆(memories)。
33.A 根据上文内容可知,作者一心希望改造自己的房子,觉得房子建好后自己的梦想也成真了,可见作者从中意识到对某个年龄段的孤独女性来说,期望(expectations)是仍然存在的。
34.D 根据下文的“who will listen:Do not wait.Just do it.”可知,作者是想站在屋顶上大喊(shout):不要等待,立即行动起来。
35.B 呼应上文“My new home has now become a palace”可知,这里指作者的新房子(house)的屋顶。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了盐的发展历程,从一开始的价格昂贵到现在的价格低廉,我们对待盐的态度发生了变化。
36.on 考查介词。on average“平均”,是固定搭配。
37.found 考查非谓语动词。逻辑主语a chemical element与动词find是被动关系,所以用动词的过去分词作定语。
38.consumption 考查名词。分析句子结构可知,空格处作主语,所以用名词形式,故填consumption。
39.turning 考查非谓语动词。逻辑主语Salt consumption与动词turn是主动关系,所以应用动词-ing形式作状语。
40.unless 考查连词。句意:除非你选择一瓶昂贵的粉色喜马拉雅盐。根据句意可知,此处为条件状语从句,故填unless。
41.has been 考查动词时态。根据时间短语for thousands of years可知,应用现在完成时,且名词salt是不可数的,故填has been。
42.valuable 考查形容词。句意:盐已经存在了几千年,它曾经非常珍贵,人们用每盎司的盐和黄金进行交易。副词so后面接形容词,故填valuable。
43.were fought 考查时态和语态。主语Wars与动词fight是被动关系,且事件发生在过去,所以用一般过去时的被动语态。
44.that 考查定语从句。先行词为a way,且在定语从句中作方式状语,所以用that引导。
45.product 考查名词。形容词mass-produced后应用名词形式,表示“产品”,故填product。

第一节
Dear Peter,
I’m pleased that you will come to China to study the language and culture.
Living in China is a wonderful thing,and I’m sure you’ll soon get used to the life here.The Chinese food is quite different from yours.Besides,most people here like drinking tea instead of coffee.And we use chopsticks while having dinner,which is another difference.Chinese people are very friendly and easy-going,so it’ll be easy for you to make friends with your classmates and the local municating with them is the best way to learn Chinese and Chinese culture.
In a word,I’ll try my best to help you settle in and make you feel at home.
Looking forward to your coming.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节
I have always hated socks and it was a warm June day,so I was wearing no socks.In the midst of conversation,Natal noticed that I had no socks on my feet.He pointed and asked if I needed socks.I looked at my feet as though they had just grown there.He commented that I wasn’t wearing socks and that I must need socks.Without hesitation,he opened his backpack,pulled out a package of socks,and showed me.I quickly told him that I didn’t need socks.
He thought I felt his socks weren’t good enough for me.He wanted me to know they had never been worn by anyone.Brand-new!Good enough!I told him I was honored he would give me his socks but that I truly disliked wearing socks.He accepted that I wasn’t disturbed by the idea of wearing his socks;I just didn’t want any socks at all.What he didn’t know was that I was absolutely touched,almost to the point of tears.Let’s not forget that we volunteers are never the only ones with something to give—and many times,when we reach out to help others,we receive more than we give.What a blessing for us.

Many graduation ceremonies look different.But for Melody,it looked different because of the classmate who graduated alongside her — her grandmother,75-year-old Pat Ormond.They both went to the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga(UTC) and graduated together.
Pat took her first college class 42 years ago.After one semester,she dropped out to move to Chattanooga,where she spent the next several decades working as an accountant and raising a family.While she did take an occasional class at UTC,she said her family continued to encourage her to go back to finish her degree,especially after she retired.She agreed when her granddaughter decided to move to study psychology at UTC after a year at Berea College.They both entered UTC with enough college credits to make graduating together a possibility.
Pat and Melody graduated on November 20 as part of UTC’s 2020 class.The achievement has also made Pat somewhat of a celebrity.
“We are so proud to have graduates like Melody and her grandmother,Pat Ormond,in the UTC class of 2020,” said Steven,UTC Chancellor,“Together,they personify the determination,commitment and love for lifelong learning we encourage in every UTC graduate.”
Pat hopes that she can be an example to other non-traditional college students who want to get their degrees.“Learning never stops,” Pat said.“That’s something that my father taught me when I was young.No matter what you do,learning never stops.” Pat isn’t planning to stop anytime soon.She’s already working on another degree—a bachelor’s degree in history.
Meanwhile,her granddaughter,who is hunting jobs,is interested in getting a master’s degree in clinical psychology so she can become a lawyer.But she says she’s in no rush.Her grandmother has taught her that she has plenty of time.

No matter how advanced technology gets,it can never be a substitute for good doctors and medical workers.During this year alone,healthcare professionals from all over the world have been putting themselves in a harmful way to treat COVID-19 patients.In times like this it is more important than ever that everyone has access to a doctor.But,according to statistics from the WHO,China has 19.79 medical doctors per 10,000 people,the US has 26.12,and the UK has 27.86.
However,the rise of telemedicine allows doctors to make better use of their time and provides better healthcare access,especially for those in rural areas.Telemedicine is the remote delivery of healthcare services,including online consultations and diagnoses,and remote patient monitoring.
According to the World Economic Forum,“Nearly every other industry adopted widespread use of conference calls,and more recently,used video chats in order to cooperate remotely,while healthcare providers and patients both hesitated to adopt these tools to deliver healthcare.” However,COVID-19 could push them to adopt the new approach.Having one of the best healthcare systems in the world,Switzerland already offers virtual video appointments for private patients,and with cloud computing,this care can go even further.
With patient data being stored in the cloud,medical records can be easily shared and updated by all healthcare providers when required.With the addition of powerful cloud networks,wearable technology,such as bracelets,can monitor a patient’s key signs from their homes,removing the need for hospital care.
Seema,administrator of Medicare and Medicaid Center,told the Wall Street Journal,“The arrival of telehealth has been just completely speeded,and it’s taken this crisis to push us to a new frontier.” Indeed,telemedicine will have a huge effect on medical care,allowing for more personalized treatment of patients after COVID-19 has relieved.
8.What services does telemedicine not offer to online patients
A.Online operations. B.Online consultations.
C.Remote patient monitoring. D.Virtual video appointments.
9.What is Seema’s attitude towards the future of telemedicine
A.Worried. B.Doubtful.
C.Optimistic. D.Cautious.
10.What can we infer from the text
A.The number of medical doctors per 10,000 is relatively small in China.
B.The US has the largest number of medical doctors in the world.
C.Only Switzerland has the most developed medical system in the world.
D.Conference calls and video chats have been used widely in telemedicine.
11.Which of the following can be the best title for this text
A.The Side Effects of COVID-19 B.Online Medical Care
C.The Shortage of Medical Care D.The Advanced Medical Technology

When Harrison School District 2 turned to e-learning last spring,they made sure to provide each student with a laptop and the tools needed to succeed at home.But one remaining need in many families was Internet access.
Christine O’Brien,spokesperson for District 2 said,“When you had many people learning and working from home,sometimes there were Internet glitches.We wanted to avoid that and make sure students in our district could have equal chances to learn and that our families could learn from home as well.”
O’Brien said that this year they made sure to survey each of their students to see who exactly needed the Internet.
“This year we were really specific about asking whether families had Internet service at home without a phone,” she said.They discovered that about a thousand families needed some sort of Internet connection.
And that’s where Altia came into play.A local software company heard there was an Internet shortage for students and it stepped in to see how they could help.Teaming up with local foundations(基金会),they were able to provide a monthly Internet service that allows many people to have Internet access at the same time.Mike Juran,CEO of Altia said,“At Altia we talked to Randy Rocha at District 2 and I just put out an email to friends and people that I knew and that made its way back to Pikes Peak Community Foundation and Norwood Foundation and people spread that around.Within weeks we were able to get something done.”
“The community came together and helped us piece this part.We worked so hard as a school district to get those devices into the hands of students but this was a piece that we weren’t ready to do.We hadn’t budgeted(预算) for it,so the community’s coming together to help our families in this way was really truly amazing,” said O’Brien.
12.What does the underlined word “glitches” in paragraph 2 mean
A.Users. B.Services.
C.Problems. D.Repairmen.
13.What did Harrison School District 2 do according to O’Brien
A.They kept track of students’ situations.
B.They sold laptops to students cheaply.
C.They kept holding new learning programs.
D.They encouraged students to treat each other equally.
14.How did Altia help to make e-learning easier
A.By visiting the families every month.
B.By sending emails to students every week.
C.By setting up a local foundation to raise money.
D.By offering Internet service to students in need.
15.Why was O’Brien so thankful for the community
A.It inspired students to be helpful and active.
B.It helped deliver devices to the hands of students.
C.It added a big part to the school’s planned budget.
D.It solved things the school district was unprepared for.

If your family or friends love to bike,then a bike trip makes a perfect vacation. 16 Because you move more slowly on a bike,you have a chance to really sink into your environment,observing wildlife and views that you might miss otherwise.
17 If you have unskilled bikers or kids in your group,you’ll probably all be the happiest if you keep your mile goals fairly modest.But a group of more experienced bikers can make more serious mile goals.
An easy way to travel is to camp along the way.You can book campsites ahead of time at campgrounds along the way,and ride into camp as late as you like. 18 Invest in a light-weight tent,and light-weight inflatable pads(充气垫) under your sleeping bag.
If you’re going to be traveling on trails(小径),you’ll want to ride a mountain bike during your trip.On the other hand,if your route is wholly along roads,you can ride a lighter-weight street bike.Or,you can put heavier-weight tires on a street bike. 19
If you have a lot of time,you can cover quite a bit of distance.Over the course of a long trip,you’ll get stronger and you’ll be able to go further in one day. 20 You might want to rest a day or two early in your travels to give your body some rest.
A.Biking is becoming more and more popular.
B.Avoiding hurt is another thing you should concern.
C.Keep in mind that some camping equipment is heavy.
D.Check in with your local bike shop for suggestions on tire weight.
E.However,remember that early in the trip you’ll start every day feeling tired.
F.Seeing the world from the seat of a bike is a wonderful way to experience new places.
G.As you plan your trip,the biggest decision to make is how far you’d like to travel each day.

(2021·山东潍坊模拟)
I’d been invited to join a group of people who took water and breakfast to a local park where day laborers gathered,hoping to be chosen for work.My friend Kim and I spoke with a Mexican man in his forties named Natal,wearing a T-shirt and faded jeans.Next to him,on the low wall where he sat,rested a large backpack and a bedroll.
We had a wonderful conversation,ranging from the difficulty of finding work to artwork,from Santa Fe history to Natal’s “beautiful home,” as he described it.Natal told us of his travels in search of work.He had traveled all over the US and Canada,taking jobs where he found them,meeting people,and seeing the sights.He told us he’d especially loved Oregon.
He was filled with praise,too,for the beauty of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains outside Santa Fe and for all the history in the town.We agreed that the area was extremely beautiful.He grinned and told us it was important to appreciate beauty.Then,he invited us to visit him in his home in the mountains.He wanted to show us the beauty of the trees and have us smell the freshness in the mountains.He wanted to be a good host.
We continued to talk and it became clear that Natal’s “home” was a clearing under the trees.His bed was the bedroll he carried with him,spread on the ground under the starlight.He loved it there and wanted to share it with us.We declined,telling him that we were honored by the invitation,but that our classes would keep us too busy to make the trip.
Natal’s love of his “home” was in sharp contrast to my complaint about the water in my pipes not heating up fast enough,about my bedroom ceiling being too low,about not having central air conditioning,about my lack of a fenced yard.How annoying I was!If I was amazed by his appreciation for everything he had,I was completely floored(击倒) by what happened next.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
I have always hated socks and it was a warm June day,so I was wearing no socks.
He thought I felt his socks weren’t good enough for me.
参考答案

【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了田纳西大学毕业生Melody和自己75岁的祖母Pat Ormond一起从大学毕业的故事。
4.D 细节理解题。根据第一段中“But for Melody,it looked different because of the classmate who graduated alongside her—her grandmother,75-year-old Pat Ormond.They both went to the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga(UTC) and graduated together.(但对Melody来说,情况就不一样了,因为和她一起毕业的同学是她75岁的祖母Pat Ormond。她们都是查塔努加的田纳西大学的毕业生)”可知,Melody的毕业典礼特别之处是她的祖母和她一起毕业。
5.A 词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“the determination,commitment and love for lifelong learning we encourage in every UTC graduate”可知,UTC负责人说Melody和祖母代表了决心、承诺和对终身学习的热爱,这是他们鼓励每一位毕业生所具有的品质,故画线词意思是“代表”,故选A项。
6.B 推理判断题。根据第二段中“While she did take an occasional class at UTC,she said her family continued to encourage her to go back to finish her degree,especially after she retired.”可知,Pat的家庭互相支持和鼓励。
7.C 推理判断题。文章主要讲述了田纳西大学毕业生Melody和自己75岁的祖母Pat Ormond一起从大学毕业的故事。由此推知,Pat Ormond的故事告诉我们“活到老,学到老”的道理。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。如今医生被认为比以往任何时候都重要,但是医生人数往往有限,文章主要介绍了远程医疗的优势和可以提供的服务,以及人们对它的看法。
8.A 细节理解题。根据第二段中“...including online consultations and diagnoses,and remote patient monitoring.”以及第三段中“...offers virtual video appointments for private patients”可知,远程医疗可以为患者提供在线咨询、患者远程监护和虚拟视频预约服务,不提供在线手术。
9.C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“‘The arrival of telehealth has been just completely speeded,and it’s taken this crisis to push us to a new frontier.’ Indeed,telemedicine will have a huge effect on medical care,allowing for more personalized treatment of patients after COVID-19 has relieved.”可知,Seema对远程医疗的未来持乐观态度。
10.A 推理判断题。根据第一段中“But,according to statistics from the WHO,China has 19.79 medical doctors per 10,000 people,the US has 26.12,and the UK has 27.86.”可知,中国每万人中医生的人数相对较少。
11.B 主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了远程医疗的优势和可以提供的服务,以及人们对它的看法。B选项“在线医疗”最符合文章标题。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇新闻报道。短文介绍了社区齐心协力帮助学生解决在线学习时遇到的网络问题。
12.C 词义猜测题。根据第一段中“But one remaining need in many families was Internet access.”和第二段中的“We wanted to avoid that and make sure students in our district could have equal chances to learn...”可知,很多人在家学习和工作时,有时会出现网络问题。故画线词与problems同义。
13.A 细节理解题。由第三段“O’Brien said that this year they made sure to survey each of their students to see who exactly needed the Internet.” 以及下文的内容可知,哈里森第二校区调查了解了学生的具体情况。
14.D 细节理解题。根据第五段中“Teaming up with local foundations,they were able to provide a monthly Internet service that allows many people to have Internet access at the same time.”可知,Altia公司通过与当地的基金会合作,为有需求的学生提供必要的网络服务。
15.D 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“but this was a piece that we weren’t ready to do.We hadn’t budgeted for it,so the community’s coming together to help our families in this way was really truly amazing,”可知,社区帮助哈里森第二校区解决了他们未做准备的事情。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了自行车旅行这种旅行方式。就如何计划自行车旅行、自行车的选择等问题提出了一些建议。
16.F 根据下文“Because you move more slowly on a bike,you have a chance to really sink into your environment,observing wildlife and views that you might miss otherwise.”可知,F项“坐在自行车上看世界也是一种体验新地方的奇妙的方式”符合语境。
17.G 下文提到“如果你的团队里有不熟练的自行车手或孩子,那么骑行里程的目标定得很低的话,你可能会感到最快乐。但是一群更有经验的自行车骑手可以制定更严格的旅程目标。”由此可知,该段是在讲关于骑行的目标制定的问题。G项“当你计划你的旅行时,你要做的最大的决定是你每天想要骑行多远”符合语境。
18.C 根据上文“An easy way to travel is to camp along the way.”以及下文“Invest in a light-weight tent,and light-weight inflatable pads under your sleeping bag.”可知,本段在讲露营设备的问题。C项“请记住,某些露营设备很重”可承接上下文。
19.D 上文提到选择更重的轮胎,那么本句承接上文说明可以向自行车商店查询轮胎重量的建议。故D项“向你当地的自行车商店查询轮胎重量的建议”符合语境。
20.E 上文提到“如果你有足够的时间,你可以骑行很远的距离。在数周的旅行过程当中,你会变得更强壮,一天之内也能够骑行得更远。”下文提到“你可能想要在旅途中早休息一两天,让你的身体得到一些休息。”由此可知,上下文含有转折关系,E项符合语境。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过讲述作者为创造新的生活而改造自己房子的经历,呼吁那些愿意倾听的人,不要再等待,立即行动起来。
21.B 根据下文“empty nesters in their sixties weren’t supposed to need a...”可知,显然(obviously)60多岁的空巢老人不需要更大的房子。
22.D 上文提到,作者打算把两层的老房子改造成多三个房间的新房子,但这个打算遭到了反对,因为60多岁的空巢老人不需要更大的(larger)房子。
23.C 根据下文“of what our life would be like”可知,此处指医生在描述作者他们未来生活的图像,lay out the picture of可理解为“描绘……的图像”。
24.A 根据“as his illness...,I saw our future die”可知,随着作者丈夫病情的发展(advanced),他们将没有未来。
25.D 根据下文“living in our home the way it had been”可知,这里指继续像以前那样住在家里,continue符合语境。
26.C 根据下文“a new life for us by myself”并结合下文作者改造房子可知,作者想自己创造(create)一个新生活。
27.A 根据下文“for the work to begin”可知,作者渴望改造工作开始。be eager for“渴望……”。
28.B 根据“I was blessed with a talented and capable contractor who...the difficult building”可知,此处指承包商接手了(took on)改造作者家这份困难的工作。
29.D 第一段提到作者要改造房子,所以此处指房屋的建造工作(construction)花费了八个月。
30.A 根据上文“We lived on site throughout the whole process”可知,作者住在施工现场的目的是为了看着自己的梦想成真。
31.B 根据下文“My new home has now...a palace,”可知,指新家成了(become)一座宫殿。
32.C 作者的新家现在成了一座宫殿,这儿不仅对她,对家人和朋友来说,每周都有新的回忆(memories)。
33.A 根据上文内容可知,作者一心希望改造自己的房子,觉得房子建好后自己的梦想也成真了,可见作者从中意识到对某个年龄段的孤独女性来说,期望(expectations)是仍然存在的。
34.D 根据下文的“who will listen:Do not wait.Just do it.”可知,作者是想站在屋顶上大喊(shout):不要等待,立即行动起来。
35.B 呼应上文“My new home has now become a palace”可知,这里指作者的新房子(house)的屋顶。
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述了盐的发展历程,从一开始的价格昂贵到现在的价格低廉,我们对待盐的态度发生了变化。
36.on 考查介词。on average“平均”,是固定搭配。
37.found 考查非谓语动词。逻辑主语a chemical element与动词find是被动关系,所以用动词的过去分词作定语。
38.consumption 考查名词。分析句子结构可知,空格处作主语,所以用名词形式,故填consumption。
39.turning 考查非谓语动词。逻辑主语Salt consumption与动词turn是主动关系,所以应用动词-ing形式作状语。
40.unless 考查连词。句意:除非你选择一瓶昂贵的粉色喜马拉雅盐。根据句意可知,此处为条件状语从句,故填unless。
41.has been 考查动词时态。根据时间短语for thousands of years可知,应用现在完成时,且名词salt是不可数的,故填has been。
42.valuable 考查形容词。句意:盐已经存在了几千年,它曾经非常珍贵,人们用每盎司的盐和黄金进行交易。副词so后面接形容词,故填valuable。
43.were fought 考查时态和语态。主语Wars与动词fight是被动关系,且事件发生在过去,所以用一般过去时的被动语态。
44.that 考查定语从句。先行词为a way,且在定语从句中作方式状语,所以用that引导。
45.product 考查名词。形容词mass-produced后应用名词形式,表示“产品”,故填product。

第一节
Dear Peter,
I’m pleased that you will come to China to study the language and culture.
Living in China is a wonderful thing,and I’m sure you’ll soon get used to the life here.The Chinese food is quite different from yours.Besides,most people here like drinking tea instead of coffee.And we use chopsticks while having dinner,which is another difference.Chinese people are very friendly and easy-going,so it’ll be easy for you to make friends with your classmates and the local municating with them is the best way to learn Chinese and Chinese culture.
In a word,I’ll try my best to help you settle in and make you feel at home.
Looking forward to your coming.
Yours,

I have always hated socks and it was a warm June day,so I was wearing no socks.In the midst of conversation,Natal noticed that I had no socks on my feet.He pointed and asked if I needed socks.I looked at my feet as though they had just grown there.He commented that I wasn’t wearing socks and that I must need socks.Without hesitation,he opened his backpack,pulled out a package of socks,and showed me.I quickly told him that I didn’t need socks.
He thought I felt his socks weren’t good enough for me.He wanted me to know they had never been worn by anyone.Brand-new!Good enough!I told him I was honored he would give me his socks but that I truly disliked wearing socks.He accepted that I wasn’t disturbed by the idea of wearing his socks;I just didn’t want any socks at all.What he didn’t know was that I was absolutely touched,almost to the point of tears.Let’s not forget that we volunteers are never the only ones with something to give—and many times,when we reach out to help others,we receive more than we give.What a blessing for us.
