四.阅读理解
Knitting his brows at some medical reports, one old man sensed a potential danger. On that day, 59 citizens in Wuhan had caught pneumonia (肺炎) of unknown etiology(病原学). The phenomenon reminded him of the severe acute respiratory syndrome(SARS) outbreak that had spread across China 17 years ago. It was he who had come up with an effective treatment for SARS.
China’s most respectable epidemiologist(流行病学家), Zhong Nanshan, is widely known to the public as the hero who defeated SARS. After a lifetime researching respiratory diseases, he was keenly aware that the new pneumonia may not be a simple disease, but a Pandora’s box that could engulf the world.
Zhong grew up in a family of doctors, and lives by a simple motto: save lives and always be honest. In 2003, when SARS spread across China, he volunteered to treat patients, staying in hospital wards for weeks on end to study the disease. At the same time, he also spent countless nights in his lab looking for a cure for the deadly disease. His efforts paid off. Months later, his treatment plan for SARS was adopted by China and then the whole world, saving thousands of lives.
Zhong is also known for an incident. When authorities announced that the virus had been brought under control, he publicly criticized the assessment, deciding instead to tell the public the truth. In one post-SARS interview, he said, “I couldn’t help myself. I said it’s not all under control.” His virtue (美德) won widespread praise from the Chinese public, who hailed him as a hero.
Seventeen years later, the old man is once again leading a team in a battle. Although this new virus is known to be particularly dangerous to the elderly, Zhong paid little attention to his own safety. On January 29, he and his colleagues spent over six hours on an online medical inquiry, checking five patients who were in critical condition.
“The hospitals are our battlefield, and doctors and nurses are warriors. When we are needed, we should charge forward, because this is our duty!” said Zhong.
As well as treating the patients, Zhong is also a messenger who delivers factual(事实的)updates of COVID-19 to the public. Being unfamiliar with social medical platforms, he has asked colleagues to help him make videos aimed at calming fears of the virus and teaching the public how to prevent the disease, such as how to wash hands or wear a mask correctly.
While praised as a hero, Zhong told the media that Wuhan, the center of China’s COVID-19 outbreak and where millions of citizens have been confined to their homes for weeks to prevent the spread of the disease, also deserves that honor.
1.What does the underlined word “engulf” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A.Sweep over. B.Get over.
C.Take over. D.Pull over.
2.What do the third and fourth paragraphs mainly want to tell us
A.Zhong didn’t hesitate to voice the truth.
B.Zhong is a virtuous and honest doctor.
C.Zhong’s honesty was highly praised in China.
D.Zhong and his team worked on end in the lab.
3.According to the passage, what doesn’t Zhong do
A.Educate people on COVID-19 prevention.
B.Make great contributions to SARS treatment.
C.Give a daily check on COVID-19 patients.
D.Inspire doctors and nurses to charge forward like warriors.
4.What does Zhong think of Wuhan
A.A Pandora’s box.
B.A city of heroes.
C.A place full of secrets.
D.A window for observation.

Reading didn’t really change my life until I saw it change the life of a child.
Marcus was a quiet boy who lived with his mother in a shelter for the poor. Because he was the 1 reader in his class, he became one of my Reading Help students.

2.independence 考查名词。句意:1816年,阿根廷宣布脱离西班牙而独立。分析句子成分可知,设空处作declared的宾语,由空前的its可知此处应用名词。故填independence。
3.impressive 考查形容词。句意:他的写作风格让人印象非常深刻。该空位于系动词is后面,且空前有修饰词very,所以推知此处用形容词作表语。故填impressive。

respectful表示对某人或某事物尊敬或表示敬意的;respectable也是形容词,意为“值得尊敬的;体面的”,表示因品质、行为等应该得到他人尊敬的。

1.A 词义猜测题。由画线词所在句中的“he was keenly aware that the new pneumonia may not be a simple disease, but a Pandora’s box that could engulf the world”可知,他敏锐地意识到,新的肺炎可能不是一种简单的疾病,事实也确实如此。句中“Pandora’s box(潘多拉魔盒)”的寓意(灾祸之源)也有提示,所以推知engulf在此处意为“席卷”,故选A项。get over 克服;take over接管;pull over 靠边停车。
