On the first day of school, I came across my new English teacher, Ms Kirschmann. I really mean that—I just ran into her.
As I began to apologize, she started “shouting” at me. But I soon realized that she was simply saying hello and welcoming me to her class in a very loud voice.
Kirsch, as she wanted us to call her, had a creative and fascinating character. Her hair color, fashion sense and energy took up the entire room. When we read the play Macbeth by Shakespeare, Kirsch let us play characters and wear masks (面具). There's a big drum in the classroom. Every time we read the word “thunder” in the text, she would beat it excitedly! My classmates and I would laugh every time.
During group discussions, Kirsch often told us to sit in a circle on the floor. We talked about the play and she took notes of what we said. Doing so made us feel independent and challenge ourselves more with critical (批判性的) thinking.
Kirsch is really a social butterfly. She smiles, laughs and tells jokes wherever she goes. But I found out about another side of her the other day.
After school that day, I saw Ms Kirschmann with her son. She was persuading (劝说) him to put on his jacket. She spoke with such a gentle voice that I was quite surprised. Until then, it didn't occur to me that Ms Kirschmann could be quiet. I suddenly felt a lot of respect for this lady who was youthful, calm, intelligent and caring all at once.
24．What did Kirsch do when her students read the word “thunder”
A．She greeted them out loud. B．She hit the big drum.
C．She laughed loudly. D．She put on a mask.
25．How did the group discussion help the students
A．It helped them feel relaxed.
B．It gave them a sense of humor.
C．It helped them take more notes.
D．It helped them develop critical thinking.
26．“Social butterfly" in Paragraph 5 was used to show Ms Kirschmann ________.
A．was active and bright B．was loud and noisy
C．spoke with a gentle voice D．wore colorful clothes
27．Which of the following words can best describe Kirsch
A．Curious. B．Traditional.
C．Energetic. D．Impatient.
C
Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city In order to answer this question, we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may be other reasons—for example, economic reasons—why they should be preserved. So, let's assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed
In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own home town of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate（影响）its surroundings too much, it often improves attractiveness of the area.
It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt（破坏）the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative and do not like change.
Although we have to respect people's feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward. If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, though that might be the more risky choice.
28．What does the author say about historical buildings in the first paragraph
A．Some of them are not attractive. B．Most of them are too expensive to preserve.
C．They are more pleasing than modern buildings. D．They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.
29．Which of the following is true according to the author
A．We should reproduce the same old buildings.
B．Buildings should no dominate their surroundings.
C．Some old buildings have spoilt the area they are in.
D．No one understands why people speak against new buildings.
30．By "move things forward" in the last paragraph, the author probably means " "
A．destroy old buildings B．put things in a difference place
C．choose new architectural styles D．respect people's feeling for historical buildings
31．What is the main purpose of the passage
A．To explain why people dislike change
B．To warn that we could end up living in caves.
C．To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings.
D．To argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas.
D
Every day, China imports (进口）different goods from countries across the globe. These imports also include solid waste, such as plastics, paper and metals. They mainly come from countries like the United States, the United Kingdom and Japan.
These goods will no longer be imported next year. China will ban (禁止) all imports of solid waste starting from Jan 1, 2021, said the Ministry of Ecology and Environment
Why does China import this waste In 1980, China’s economy (经济) was gradually taking off because of the reform and opening — up policy. The country’s factories didn’t have enough raw materials at that time. Therefore. China began importing solid waste. After being processed, it can be turned into materials that are used to make other products.
For years. China has been the world’s largest importer of solid waste, with about 45 million tons arriving each year. Countries that send this waste to China pay about$ 25（163 yuan）to $50 per ton for recycling, China News Agency reported.
Although the waste has helped develop China’s economy, it has brought more risks than benefits. Waste that can’t be used is either burned or buried. The water used to wash the waste is allowed to flow into nearby rivers. This has polluted the air, soil and water, posing a risk to public health, China Daily reported.
China has made some efforts to ban waste since 2017. From 2017 to 2019, imports of solid waste fell by 68 percent, dropping from 42 million to 13 million tons, Xinhua reported.
32．After Jan 1, 2021, what will no longer be allowed in China
A．Producing solid waste.
B．Buying solid waste from abroad.
C．Selling metals to other countries.
D．Importing plastic products from abroad.
33．What do we know from Paragraphs 3 and 4
A．It costs very little money to recycle solid waste.
B．China has made a lot of money by importing waste.
C．Many factories used to use solid waste to make products.
D．About 45 million tons of waste are processed worldwide each year.
34．What is Paragraph 5 mainly about
A．How solid waste should be dealt with.
B．What risks solid waste brought to China.
C．What we can do to protect ourselves from waste.
D．How solid waste has helped China’s development.
35．According to the last paragraph, which word describes Chin’s efforts to ban waste
A．Wasteful. B．Effective (有效的).
C．Challenging. D．Expensive.
第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
Many animals move from one place to another at certain times of the year. ____36____ They migrate to find food, seek a partner, or in search of warmer weather. One of the most wonderful migrations in nature is that of the North American monarch butterfly.
Every autumn, millions of these beautiful insects begin a long and difficult journey. Somehow they manage to travel around 4,000 kilometres south and find their way to California or Mexico. ____37____
A team of scientists has now found the answer. They have found out that the monarch is able to tell the time of day. ____38____ These two pieces of information — the time of day and the point where the sun is in the sky —allow the butterfly to determine the way to go. Eventually, it manages to reach the places where it will spend the winter.
The solution to the mystery of the monarch’s amazing ability comes at a time when it is in serious trouble. ____39____ Sadly, human activity is the main reason why the number of monarch butterflies is falling. In many of the places where the butterfly can be found, people are destroying the natural environment. They cut down trees and use chemicals that kill the plants that monarch caterpillars eat.
____40____ People have been recording its migration and make sure that there are enough plants for it to feed on. If this works, there may come a time when the number of monarch butterflies increases once again. The more we know about this lovely creature, the greater the chance it will survive and keep its place in the natural world for a long time to come.
A．They begin to return north in the spring.
B．This annual movement is called migration.
C．It uses its eyes to measure the position of the sun.
D．However, until recently no one knew how they did this.
E．The most common type of migration is seasonal migration.
F．Its population has crashed by as much as 90 per cent in the last few years.
G．The research on the monarch’s behavior has however led to a greater awareness of this creature.

67．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One morning in the autumn when I was nine, Mom asked me to do some yard work with her. She had grown some potatoes in our yard that spring. It was time to harvest (收获). She wanted me to help her dig the potatoes. “Do I have to ” I said unhappily.
“Yes，you do,” Mom gave an answer. Then she added, “Change your attitude and it'll be easier.” “That's what you think,” I thought to myself. I sat on the sofa watch TV. Soon Mom wouldn't wait any longer and ordered me to follow her.
Worried that she'd be angry, I walked slowly out. I was unwillingly to move my feet—almost as though there were magnets (磁铁) fixed to them and the ground was metal. Or it felt like my socks were filled with wet sand. Or maybe my feet just stuck to the ground.
Following Mom's instructions, I picked up a shovel and started to work. I needed to be careful when digging up potatoes, otherwise I would damage them. The damaged potatoes would easily rot (腐烂). I pushed the shovel into the earth slowly and lifted the earth onto one side. When that was done, potatoes came out. Then I had to use my hands to free the potatoes from below. After that I placed them into a basket. It was really dirty and boring.
注意：1. 续写词数应为100左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I was about to give up the work when Mom's words came to my mind.

66．Dear Peter,
I am sorry to know that you are addicted to the mobile phone, which makes your parents upset. I can understand your feeling. After all, most of the teenagers have the same problem.
I think you need to take your parents feelings into consideration. Overusing mobile phones will have a bad effect on your study. Besides, it is not good to your eyes and does harm to your health. What's more, if you need mobile phones for practical use, you can communicate with your parents and use it with their permission.
I hope my suggestions will be of help to you. Looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
67．I was about to give up the work when Mom’s words came to my mind. “Change your attitude and it’ll be easier.” Those words kept ringing in my ears. The dirt on my hands began to drop as if it was trying to take away my bad attitude. I went all out to work, singing and admiring each potato I dug up. Amazingly, I began to find harvesting potatoes interesting and meaningful. I said to Mom, “You were right. The work is easier.” She smiled and looked at me with approval. That day it really made sense for me and I carry those words in my mind until today. After all, work makes people happy.
