第一节 (共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
The World’s Most Popular Art Museums
Musee du Louvre in Paris, France
The largest and perhaps the most famous art museum in the world, this relic is best known for being the home of Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa.
On a regular day, the Louvre would host up to 15,000 guests and display as many as 380,000 precious objects—a truly symbolic institution that has remained beloved by artists, art critics, and art-lovers alike for over 228 years.
Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, USA
Informally referred to as “The Met,” this American art museum has 17 departments and over 2 million works within its permanent collection.
Opened in 1870, this slightly more contemporary museum contains works by the likes of Edgar Degas, Vincent van Gogh, Jackson Pollock, and Emanuel Gottlieb Leutze. It also houses the world’s oldest grand piano!
Uffizi Gallery in Florence, Italy
Before becoming a world-class art museum, Uffizi Gallery was a governmental building whose name means “offices” when translated to English.
Constructed between 1560 and 1580 and designed by Giorgio Vasari, this historic building houses Michaelangelo’s only free-standing painting, “Doni Tondo” and is visited by an average of over 2 million foreigners every year. If you ever find yourself there, don’t forget to search for the secret Vasari Corridor which stretches over the Ponte Vecchio river.
Tate Modern in London, England
Last but certainly not least on this list is the crowning glory of England’s art galleries, the Tate Modern where ever art lovers want to play Australian online games now. Founded by sugar businessman Henry Tate in 1897 Liverpool, the innovative (革新的) Tate displays symbolic works by more progressive artists such as Salvador Dali, Picasso, Rothko, Duchamp, and Parreno.
21. What is the most famous treasure in Musee du Louvre
A. The Met. B. Mona Lisa. C. Doni Tondo. D. Vasari Corridor.
22. Of the following art museums, which is the oldest
A. Musee du Louvre. B. Uffizi Gallery. C. Tate Modern. D. Metropolitan Museum of Art.
23. What can people do at Tate Modern
A. Learn to make sugar. B. Enjoy traditional works.
C. Play online games. D. Play the oldest piano.
B
Human rubbish can be a cockatoo’s treasure. In Sydney, the birds have learned how to open dustbins and throw rubbish around in the streets as they hunt for leftovers. People are now fighting back.
When cockatoos learn how to open dustbin lids, people change their behavior, using things like bricks to weigh down lids (盖子), to protect their trash from being thrown about. That’s usually a low-level protection and then the cockatoos figure out how to defeat that. That’s when people strengthen their efforts, and the cycle continues.
Tricks such as attempting to scare the parrots off with rubber snakes don’t work very well. Nor does blocking access with heavy objects such as bricks; cockatoos use force to push them off. Hanging weights from the front of the lid or placing items such as sneakers and sticks through a bin’s back handles work better. Researchers didn’t see any birds get inside bins with these higher levels of protection.
The findings suggest an arms race, but the missing piece is how the birds will respond as people try new ways of blocking bins. Some survey responses suggest that the parrots are learning.
Cockatoos may stay away from strategies that take too long to beat. Bricks, for instance, are easy to quickly push off a bin; breaking sticks placed through the bin’s back handle could take more time. Perhaps if enough people in a neighborhood adopt a highly effective method, Clark, a behavioral ecologist says, the cockatoos may not find it worth it to stop by.
24. Why are bricks used in the battle against cockatoos
A. To increase the weight of the lids. B. To hit the birds when necessary.
C. To reduce the size of the rubbish. D. To keep the dustbin balanced.
25. Which seems the best way to win the battle presently
A. Using rubber snakes to frighten the parrots. B. Blocking access with objects like bricks.
C. Hanging weights from the back of the lid. D. Placing sticks through a bin’s back handles.
26. What can we learn about cockatoos from the text
A. They are in danger of extinction. B. They are the strongest parrots.
C. They are clever and adaptable. D. They are good at finding treasure.
27. What does Clark’s statement in the last paragraph suggest
A. People are defeated by cockatoos in the battle. B. People should work together to win the battle.
C. People and cockatoos should live in harmony. D. People had better adopt all the cockatoos.
C
In Mombasa on the coast of Kenya is a place called Haller Park. People flood there to see 180 local species of plants and trees, and a variety of animals including hippos and giraffes.
In The Book of Hope: A Survival Guide for Trying Times, Jane Goodall discusses the park as an example of how our injured Earth can be restored and healed. At one point the park was “a large and frightening five-hundred-acre scar (伤疤) where almost nothing grew” because a cement (水泥) company dug large amounts of stone out of the ground. The company decided to repair the damage. Year by year, by growing flowers, fruit and vegetables and with introduction of wild animals, the area was changed.
It’s extremely important, Jane Goodall says in the book, that people—especially young people—know how positive action can still turn around the frightening path of climate crisis, biodiversity loss, and the ongoing global pandemic (疫情). “It’s mostly because people are so overpowered by our stupidity that they feel helpless,” Goodall states. They need to hear stories of “the people who succeed because they won’t give up.”
Jane Goodall is one of those people herself. She is the world’s leading chimpanzee (黑猩猩) expert; UN Messenger of Peace; winner of the 2021 Templeton Prize; activist through the Jane Goodall Institute and its many projects that help local communities and the environment; and author of numerous books, the first of which, In the Shadow of Man, celebrates its 50th anniversary this year.
Goodall speaks plainly and effectively throughout the book. As troubling as this current pandemic is, “we must not let this take our attention away from the far greater threat to our future—the climate crisis and the loss of biodiversity,” she says. Goodall calls each of us to action: “Let us use the gift of our lives to make this a better world.”
28. Why do a large number of people go to Haller Park
A. To admire the wildlife there. B. To write books on parks.
C. To study Kenya culture. D. To work for a company.
29. What does Goodall hope the story of Haller Park serves as
A. A messenger of peace. B. A scar to remember.
C. A hope for a better world. D. An example to avoid.
30. What can we learn about Goodall from the last two paragraphs
A. She published her first book 50 years ago.
B. She adopted and brought up many chimpanzees.
C. She calls on people to focus more on the pandemic.
D. She is full of fear for the future of the world.
31. What is the text
A. A news report. B. A tour guide. C. A biography. D. A book review.
D
Food waste has been of major global concern for many years now. It is estimated that every year, 1.3 billion tons of edible food—equal to a third of global production—which would be enough to feed three billion people, is wasted. This is particularly shocking when one considers that every day, people go hungry. Ending food waste would certainly solve this problem, but unfortunately, it is not as easy as that.
A huge amount of agricultural produce goes to waste as a result of unreasonable quality standards that overemphasize colour, shape and uniformity in appearance especially with regard to fruits and vegetables. The result was that farmers worked with agricultural scientists to focus on the appearance and volume of their products and organic farming had to take a back seat.
Food is also wasted when fresh or processed produce that is close to or at the best-before date in many developed countries, is got rid of by retailers and consumers. And this is often a result of poor supply chain management and the overshopping which has been ordinarily existing in western households for a long time.
Another way that wastage occurs is when edible food remains unused or left over and is got rid of from household kitchens and eating places. How many of us refuse leftovers and insist on freshly-prepared meals three times a day on a daily basis Then there are eating places, particularly in North America, that prefer to throw out unused and untouched food rather than allow their employees to consume it or give it to the homeless.
Given its complexity, reducing and ending food waste requires an overall approach, but it must be solved as it is critical to creating the zero-hunger world. Doing so, we would meet the Sustainable Development Goal (可持续性发展目标) which is to end hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture.
32. What does “this problem” in Paragraph 1 refer to
A. Global production is decreasing. B. The population is growing.
C. People are starving. D. Food is being wasted.
33. What can we learn about the quality standards
A. They overemphasize the flavour of produce.
B. They can certainly ensure the quality of produce.
C. They are aimed at nothing but fruits and vegetables.
D. They directly lead to organic farming being ignored.
34. Which word best describes the author’s attitude to the practice in eating places
A. Positive. B. Cautious. C. Uncaring. D. Negative.
35. Which can be the best title for the text
A. Waste and Agriculture B. Waste and Want C. Waste and Safety D. Waste and Fairness

How to Try to Fix a Friendship After You Broke It
It can seem impossible to restart a friendship after you messed it up, but it’s definitely worth the effort. 36 . If not, at least you gave it your best shot.
●Look at yourself and the situation long and hard. This will help you to know how to form a solution. This is not the time to just think you can text or call the person and expect everything will be just fine. After all, it was your fault. 37 .
●Get in touch. After you have looked at the situation and have seen in your own mind how the other person felt about it, contact the other person and apologize. They may not be ready to hear from you, but at least they know that you are sorry for your actions. 38 , do not get upset and do not keep texting them. This could cause them to block your texts and make it almost impossible to get in contact with them.
● 39 . After the first attempt to apologize, give it a day or two. This could feel like a lifetime when you care so much for someone and you know you hurt them. Rushing to get that person to accept your apology could hurt things even more. Give them time and plenty of space.
●Be thoughtful. When you do text back to that person after a few days, just let them know that you are still thinking about them. 40 . It could be as simple as “just wanted you to know that I am still thinking of you and I know I messed up”.
A. Give it time
B. Let things go
C. With luck, you may just succeed
D. If you truly did love them at one point
E. If the person is not ready to talk to you
F. You need to prove to them that they are worth fighting for
G. Don’t go all crazy and leave a long text that takes days to read

Tian Guanxiang, 49, was delighted to hear that the 61 (tradition) tea-making techniques of China had been listed as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage (非物质遗产).
For Tian, tea making is not only a heritage, 62 is also what has made a better life possible for her and her family. The tea farmer’s family lives 63 the foot of the tea hill. 64 (look) back from a window, one can see tea trees dyeing the mountain to lively green all year long.
“In the past, we were a poor family of nine who made 65 living from tea gardens. In the early years, when I went to the town to sell tea, I could only carry them on my 66 (shoulder), with two heavy bags hung on each end of the pole,” Tian said. Thanks to local poverty reduction (脱贫) efforts, the village now has paved roads and Internet access, with a cement road going straight to the door of Tian’s home, and tap water flowing 67 (direct) into her kitchen. In 2020, several experts 68 (invite) to the county to serve as chief scientists for the local tea. The experts told tea farmers 69 (stop) using pesticides (农药), promising that they have better ways to kill the pests.
“With good quality, our tea sells at a better price. Growing and selling tea makes our wallets ‘swollen’ and, moreover, 70 (attract) more tourists to the tea gardens. Now, our village has become a scenic spot,” Tian said.

Let’s Play Soccer
As we all know, soccer is the most popular sport in the world. Sadly, a few senior high students are taking up this game, either because of the heavy stress of GaoKao or the fear of being injured. However, they just ignore the important role soccer plays.
In fact, playing soccer regularly benefits us in different ways. For one thing, soccer influences the physical state positively, providing people with lung fitness and endurance. For another, soccer improves the mental state as well. Not only does it provide an opportunity to connect with like-minded people, but it also relieves us from daily stress, let alone developing a right attitude towards victory and defeat.
Generally, soccer is beneficial. Everyone should embrace this excellent and healthy sport. To have soccer is to score big! (118 words)

In today’s class, we will do a role-playing exercise to better understand what life was like during the Industrial Revolution in England in the late 18th and early 19th century. All the information you need is in the instruction sheet in front of you. First, I will divide you into three groups. Each group represents a different class during that time period. The first group will represent the upper class and play the role of owners of businesses in the city. The second group will represent the middle class and play the role of business managers. The third group will represent and play the role of the working class. This last group will be made up of different types of working-class families, such as single-parent families and families who lost their parents. Besides those groups, I will need two students to represent the bank and three students to represent officers. Each group will have specific goals they must reach by the end of the exercise while trying to follow city rules, like paying taxes and keeping the city at peace. Any questions If there is no question, here we go.
