B篇
Former Disney child star Jennifer McGill recently shared how, after her mother passed away, she went through an extremely dark period in her life.
Jennifer was born ready for the stage. She grew up in a loving home in Texas. And by age 7, she begged her mom to let her enter contests. Jennifer’s mom was uncertain. But seeing her daughter’s high energy and unshakable love of the stage, she finally supported her daughter’s wish.
Jennifer won many contests, and soon her parents were advised to have her audition (试演) for The New Mickey Mouse Club, a Disney show. Jennifer tried out and landed her dream job.
Many of Jennifer’s co stars on the show went on to run after their careers. But after many years as a Disney child star, Jennifer didn’t feel ready for Hollywood just yet.
“I just needed to grow up and grow wiser in order to be the artist I thought I was meant to be,” she said. Instead, Jennifer chose to go on to college — a decision her mother fully supported.
Jennifer’s parents were supportive throughout her career and schooling. But her mom was her champion — a constant source of support. Unfortunately, when Jennifer was 24 years old, her mom passed away.
“The biggest light and fan was gone, the person who’d reminded me that I was unique and valuable. I was kind of lost,” she said. The next several years grew very dark. She began feeling herself lonely. She felt lifeless and purposeless.
Much as Jennifer still missed her mother, she realized she should get her life back to normal. She’s now pursuing a new career in music. She also spends her time coaching young artists. She encourages them to put fame at the bottom of their list.
4．What do we know about Jennifer from Paragraph 2
A．She loved her mother deeply. B．She had a natural talent for acting.
C．Her parents didn’t support her acting career. D．Her mother was for her decision from the very beginning.
5．What was special about Jennifer compared with other Disney child stars
A．She was much wiser than them. B．She kept practicing her acting skills.
C．She got herself ready for Hollywood. D．She decided to continue her education.
6．What made Jennifer suffer greatly
A．The death of her mother. B．The loss of support from her family.
C．The failure to become a Hollywood star. D．The lack of courage to pursue her career.
7．Which of the following is Jennifer’s advice to young artists
A．Never forget the social duty. B．It is important to earn fame in the career.
C．Never think too much about being famous. D．Get away from sorrow as soon as possible.
C篇
At a time when we are all experiencing an extraordinary level of stress, science offers a simple and effective way to bolster our own emotional health. To help yourself, start by helping others.
Our bodies and minds benefit in a variety of ways when we help others. Some research has focused on the “helper’s high”. Studies show that volunteering, donating money, or even just thinking about donating money can release feel-good brain chemicals and activate the part of the brain stimulated by the pleasure of food. Studies of volunteers show that do-gooders had lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol on days they did volunteer work.
In fact, the act of giving advice has been shown to be more beneficial than receiving it. In a series of studies of 2,274 people, researchers from the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Chicago found that after middle school students mentored younger students about studying, they ended up spending more time on their own homework. Overweight people who counselled others on weight loss were more motivated to lose weight themselves.
Feeling responsible for other people also can help us cope with whatever challenges life brings. Emily A．Greenfield, an associate professor of social work at Rutgers University, studied a concept called ”felt obligation“, which is measured by asking people questions such as how obligated they would feel to give money to a friend in need, even if it meant putting themselves in a bind. Dr Greenfield analysed data collected from 849 participants in an ongoing study of health and well-being that asked about felt obligation as well as health-related declines they experienced over time, such as problems carrying groceries or walking a block.
As it turned out, the people who had higher levels of felt obligation—meaning they were the type of people to sacrifice for others—coped better with their own life challenges.
She noted that caring for others helps us to regulate our own emotions and gain a sense of control. “When we remind a friend that social distancing measures are temporary, and this too shall pass, we are also, in effect, reminding ourselves and serving to regulate our own emotions,” she said.
8．According to the passage, which of the following statements is true
A．Donating money can release brain chemicals making people feel good.
B．Giving advice is more beneficial than giving money.
C．Overweight people helping others on weight loss are discouraged from losing weight.
D．People having higher levels of felt obligation are less likely to help others.
9．The underlined word “bolster” in Paragraph 1 most probably means “_________“.
A．improve B．maintain
C．ruin D．blow
10．Which one is NOT a benefit of helping others
A．Better handling life difficulties.
B．Having lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol.
C．Expressing emotions more accurately.
D．Achieving a sense of control.
11．The best title for the passage is “________”.
A．The Challenge for Volunteering B．A Beneficial Attempt
C．The Rapid Growth of Volunteer Work D．The Science of Helping Out
D篇
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 us 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 hometown 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 the attractiveness of the area.
It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt 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 (保守的) 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, even though that might be the more risky choice.
12．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.
13．Which of the following is true according to the author
A．We should reproduce the same old buildings.
B．Buildings should not dominate their surroundings.
C．Some old buildings have spoilt the area they are in.
D．No one understands why people speak against new buildings.
14．According to the last paragraph, the author probably wants the architect and planner to________.
A．destroy old buildings
B．put things in a different place
C．respect people’s feelings for historical buildings
D．choose new architectural styles
15．What is the main purpose of the passage
A．To explain why people dislike change.
B．To argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas.
C．To warn that we could end up living in caves.
D．To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings.

E篇
To be a great reader,it is not enough that you read. It’s also how you read. The following strategies guarantee that you’ll not only be a better reader but a better person too.
Stop reading books you aren’t enjoying. If you find yourself wanting to speed up the reading process on a particular book, you might want to ask yourself, “Is this book any good ” 16 My rule is 100 pages minus your age — so if you’re 30years old and a book hasn’t attracted you by page 70, stop reading it.
17 You were young when you read The Great Gatsby for the first time. You were just a kid when someone told you the story of Odysseus. You’ve already read them or learned about them, so you’re done, right 18 It’s why we have to read and reread. Because the world is constantly changing and we are constantly changing, therefore what we get out of books can also change.
Ask people you admire for book recommendations. If we encounter a man of rare intellect, we should ask him what books he reads. 19 Every time I met a successful or important person I admired, I would ask them, “What’s a book that changed your life ”And then I would read that book. If a book changed someone’s life — whatever the topic or style — it’s probably worth the investment. If it changed them, then it will likely at least help you,
20 The path to wisdom is not a straight one. The journey is long with ups and downs, highs and lows. Maybe you’re in the middle of a low right now. This can be a scary place to be, because it can feel like you’ll be stuck there forever. A reading slump always pops up for me, for instance,during a book launch when it’s nearly impossible for me to concentrate enough to read. But I’ve found I’m able to get out of it by rereading something that has really spoken to me in the past.
A．Get out of depression.
B．Reread the masters.
C．Provide some interesting books.
D．Life is too short to read books you don’t enjoy reading.
E．We surely forget the content of the classics.
F．When I was a teenager, I got in the habit of doing this.
G．We can’t be content to simply pick up a book once and judge it by that experience.

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了能让你成为一名好的读者的四个阅读方式。

17．根据下文“You were young when you read The Great Gatsby for the first time. You were just a kid when someone told you the story of Odysseus.(你第一次读《了不起的盖茨比》时还很小。当有人给你讲奥德修斯的故事时，你还只是个孩子)”以及该段最后一句“It’s why we have to read and reread. Because the world is constantly changing and we are constantly changing,therefore what we get out of books can also change. (这就是为什么我们要读一遍又一遍。因为世界在不断变化，我们也在不断变化，所以我们从书中得到的东西也会改变)”可知，该段提到了在小时候读过的名著会随着人们的成长而得到不一样的感受，因此小时候读过的名著值得再一次阅读。由此可知，B项“Reread the masters.(重读经典)”适合作本段主题句，引起下文内容。故选B。
18．根据上文“You’ve already read them or learned about them,so you’re done, right (你已经读过或了解过它们，所以你已经完成了，对吗？)”可知，此处指小时候阅读过名著，不代表就真的能够理解，因此才需要重新阅读经典名著，从而得到不一样的感悟。由此可知，G项“We can’t be content to simply pick up a book once and judge it by that experience.(我们不能满足于简单地拿起一本书，然后根据这种经历来判断它)”能够衔接上文，符合语境。故选G。
19．根据上文“Ask people you admire for book recommendations. If we encounter a man of rare intellect, we should ask him what books he reads.(向你欣赏的人寻求书籍推荐。如果我们遇到一个智力超群的人，我们应该问他读什么书)”可知，我们可以向自己欣赏的人询问他所看的书籍。根据下文“And then I would read that book.(然后我会读那本书)”可知，作者有向自己欣赏的人寻求书籍推荐并且阅读推荐的书籍的习惯。由此可知，F项“When I was a teenager,I got in the habit of doing this.(当我十几岁的时候，我养成了这样做的习惯)”能够承上启下，符合语境。故选F。

47． I rushed home from school every day the next two weeks. As soon as I was in the door，I yelled, “Any mail for me ” I usually heard, “No mail, Jessica.” With the deadline approaching, I still didn’t receive any money. I was so disappointed that I was beginning to lose confidence and thinking about giving up. My belief in the kindness of people was badly shaken. I wouldn’t get the money I needed. People were heartless.
But one day, I came home and heard five beautiful words: Jessica, you have two letters. I opened them eagerly to find each had a check for $50. Some people really cared! Over the next few days, more checks came, and I ended up with enough money to attend the forum. This experience taught me so much. There is goodness in the world, and making a difference in someone’s life, no matter how big or small, is what truly matters. So whenever I see people trying to raise money, I offer whatever I have to make their work a little easier.

Former Disney child star Jennifer McGill recently shared how, after her mother passed away, she went through an extremely dark period in her life.
Jennifer was born ready for the stage. She grew up in a loving home in Texas. And by age 7, she begged her mom to let her enter contests. Jennifer’s mom was uncertain. But seeing her daughter’s high energy and unshakable love of the stage, she finally supported her daughter’s wish.
Jennifer won many contests, and soon her parents were advised to have her audition (试演) for The New Mickey Mouse Club, a Disney show. Jennifer tried out and landed her dream job.
Many of Jennifer’s co stars on the show went on to run after their careers. But after many years as a Disney child star, Jennifer didn’t feel ready for Hollywood just yet.
“I just needed to grow up and grow wiser in order to be the artist I thought I was meant to be,” she said. Instead, Jennifer chose to go on to college — a decision her mother fully supported.
Jennifer’s parents were supportive throughout her career and schooling. But her mom was her champion — a constant source of support. Unfortunately, when Jennifer was 24 years old, her mom passed away.
“The biggest light and fan was gone, the person who’d reminded me that I was unique and valuable. I was kind of lost,” she said. The next several years grew very dark. She began feeling herself lonely. She felt lifeless and purposeless.
Much as Jennifer still missed her mother, she realized she should get her life back to normal. She’s now pursuing a new career in music. She also spends her time coaching young artists. She encourages them to put fame at the bottom of their list.
4．What do we know about Jennifer from Paragraph 2
A．She loved her mother deeply. B．She had a natural talent for acting.
C．Her parents didn’t support her acting career. D．Her mother was for her decision from the very beginning.
5．What was special about Jennifer compared with other Disney child stars

C．She got herself ready for Hollywood. D．She decided to continue her education.
6．What made Jennifer suffer greatly
A．The death of her mother. B．The loss of support from her family.
C．The failure to become a Hollywood star. D．The lack of courage to pursue her career.
7．Which of the following is Jennifer’s advice to young artists
A．Never forget the social duty. B．It is important to earn fame in the career.
C．Never think too much about being famous. D．Get away from sorrow as soon as possible.
C篇
At a time when we are all experiencing an extraordinary level of stress, science offers a simple and effective way to bolster our own emotional health. To help yourself, start by helping others.
Our bodies and minds benefit in a variety of ways when we help others. Some research has focused on the “helper’s high”. Studies show that volunteering, donating money, or even just thinking about donating money can release feel-good brain chemicals and activate the part of the brain stimulated by the pleasure of food. Studies of volunteers show that do-gooders had lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol on days they did volunteer work.
In fact, the act of giving advice has been shown to be more beneficial than receiving it. In a series of studies of 2,274 people, researchers from the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Chicago found that after middle school students mentored younger students about studying, they ended up spending more time on their own homework. Overweight people who counselled others on weight loss were more motivated to lose weight themselves.
Feeling responsible for other people also can help us cope with whatever challenges life brings. Emily A．Greenfield, an associate professor of social work at Rutgers University, studied a concept called ”felt obligation“, which is measured by asking people questions such as how obligated they would feel to give money to a friend in need, even if it meant putting themselves in a bind. Dr Greenfield analysed data collected from 849 participants in an ongoing study of health and well-being that asked about felt obligation as well as health-related declines they experienced over time, such as problems carrying groceries or walking a block.
As it turned out, the people who had higher levels of felt obligation—meaning they were the type of people to sacrifice for others—coped better with their own life challenges.
She noted that caring for others helps us to regulate our own emotions and gain a sense of control. “When we remind a friend that social distancing measures are temporary, and this too shall pass, we are also, in effect, reminding ourselves and serving to regulate our own emotions,” she said.
8．According to the passage, which of the following statements is true
A．Donating money can release brain chemicals making people feel good.
B．Giving advice is more beneficial than giving money.
C．Overweight people helping others on weight loss are discouraged from losing weight.
D．People having higher levels of felt obligation are less likely to help others.
9．The underlined word “bolster” in Paragraph 1 most probably means “_________“.
A．improve B．maintain
C．ruin D．blow
10．Which one is NOT a benefit of helping others
A．Better handling life difficulties.
B．Having lower levels of the stress hormone cortisol.
C．Expressing emotions more accurately.
D．Achieving a sense of control.
11．The best title for the passage is “________”.
A．The Challenge for Volunteering B．A Beneficial Attempt
C．The Rapid Growth of Volunteer Work D．The Science of Helping Out
D篇
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 us 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 hometown 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 the attractiveness of the area.
It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt 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 (保守的) 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, even though that might be the more risky choice.
12．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.
13．Which of the following is true according to the author
A．We should reproduce the same old buildings.
B．Buildings should not dominate their surroundings.
C．Some old buildings have spoilt the area they are in.
D．No one understands why people speak against new buildings.
14．According to the last paragraph, the author probably wants the architect and planner to________.
A．destroy old buildings
B．put things in a different place
C．respect people’s feelings for historical buildings
D．choose new architectural styles
15．What is the main purpose of the passage
A．To explain why people dislike change.
B．To argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas.
C．To warn that we could end up living in caves.
D．To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings.

To be a great reader,it is not enough that you read. It’s also how you read. The following strategies guarantee that you’ll not only be a better reader but a better person too.
Stop reading books you aren’t enjoying. If you find yourself wanting to speed up the reading process on a particular book, you might want to ask yourself, “Is this book any good ” 16 My rule is 100 pages minus your age — so if you’re 30years old and a book hasn’t attracted you by page 70, stop reading it.
17 You were young when you read The Great Gatsby for the first time. You were just a kid when someone told you the story of Odysseus. You’ve already read them or learned about them, so you’re done, right 18 It’s why we have to read and reread. Because the world is constantly changing and we are constantly changing, therefore what we get out of books can also change.
Ask people you admire for book recommendations. If we encounter a man of rare intellect, we should ask him what books he reads. 19 Every time I met a successful or important person I admired, I would ask them, “What’s a book that changed your life ”And then I would read that book. If a book changed someone’s life — whatever the topic or style — it’s probably worth the investment. If it changed them, then it will likely at least help you,
20 The path to wisdom is not a straight one. The journey is long with ups and downs, highs and lows. Maybe you’re in the middle of a low right now. This can be a scary place to be, because it can feel like you’ll be stuck there forever. A reading slump always pops up for me, for instance,during a book launch when it’s nearly impossible for me to concentrate enough to read. But I’ve found I’m able to get out of it by rereading something that has really spoken to me in the past.
A．Get out of depression.
B．Reread the masters.
C．Provide some interesting books.
D．Life is too short to read books you don’t enjoy reading.
E．We surely forget the content of the classics.
F．When I was a teenager, I got in the habit of doing this.
G．We can’t be content to simply pick up a book once and judge it by that experience.

“I don’t think anyone is going to send you money, Jessica. People just aren’t that kind.” said my mother. I was shocked by such a comment. “But you’re wrong. People are kind and they will be generous enough to send me money.” I argued.
Last fall, I sent 200 letters to businesses, doctors and friends asking for sponsorship so I could attend the National Youth Leadership Forum on Medicine. everyone doubted my efforts, and I heard every excuse why people would be too busy to help me. “These people don’t even know you. Do you honestly think a stranger will send you money ” asked my friends. “Why put yourself through all this disappointment Just forget it.” said my grandfather. I decided not to listen. The best thing I could do was to attend the Forum and learn more about my future career.
I waited weeks for my first response, which came from a bank. “Dear Jessica,” it read. “At this time. Our bank does not offer aid to students, but we wish you luck and success in your project.” My heart sank. I was rejected. I looked at my grandpa. “Well ” he asked. He should have been able to tell from my disappointed face. “ Here, ” I said, as I handed him the letter and locked myself in my room. But then I realized what I was doing. “It’s only one rejection,” I said to myself, “Cheer up. You will receive a letter with a check in it.”

【导语】本文为议论文。文章讨论了是否现代的建筑应该和古老的历史建筑在一起，在作者看来，历史建筑应该保存，我们必须尊重人们作为建筑物使用者的感受，但是建筑师和规划师有责任推动事物向前发展，应选择一些新鲜的、不同的风格，不能因为有历史建筑而破坏我们的生活。

(虽然我们必须尊重人们作为建筑物使用者的感受，但我认为建筑师和规划师有责任推动事物向前发展。如果我们总是复制以前的东西，我们现在可能还住在洞穴里。因此，我反对复制以前的架构风格，而选择一些新鲜的、不同的风格，尽管这可能是一个更冒险的选择。)”可知，作者可能希望建筑师和规划师选择新的建筑风格。故选D项。

(这就是为什么我们要读一遍又一遍。因为世界在不断变化，我们也在不断变化，所以我们从书中得到的东西也会改变)”可知，该段提到了在小时候读过的名著会随着人们的成长而得到不一样的感受，因此小时候读过的名著值得再一次阅读。由此可知，B项“Reread the masters.(重读经典)”适合作本段主题句，引起下文内容。故选B。

36．考查时态和主谓一致。句意：毫无疑问，地球正变得越来越暖。根据空后的“warmer and warmer”可知，这里讲述的是现阶段正在进行的动作，所以应用现在进行时。主语为Earth，表示单数，所以谓语应用单数形式。故填is getting。
37．考查形容词。句意：这个令人惊慌的案例表明，温度的升高是如何对地球生态产生影响的。空处修饰后面指物的名词case，应用修饰物的-ing形式的形容词。alarming意为“令人担忧的，令人惊恐的”，符合题意。故填alarming。

42．考查形容词。句意：有强有力的证据表明，气温上升导致了全球极端天气和自然灾害的增加，不仅造成了严重的破坏，还导致了人类失去生命。空处应用形容词作定语修饰disasters。形容词natural“自然的”符合题意。故填natural。
43．考查副词。句意：气候科学家警告说，如果我们不采取适当行动，这种变暖趋势可能会继续下去，并且人们将付出更高的代价。这里应用副词作状语修饰动词continue。副词probably“可能”符合题意。故填probably。
44．考查比较级。句意参考上题。根据句中的“this warming trend will 8 (probable) continue”可知，继续下去的后果会更加严重，所以这里表示“会付出更高的代价”，应用形容词比较级作定语修饰名词price。high的比较级是higher。故填higher。
45．考查名词。句意：我们有责任抓住每一个机会去教育每个人了解全球变暖及其原因和影响。根据空前的our，这里应用名词。responsibility“责任”符合题意，不可数。故填responsibility。

47． I rushed home from school every day the next two weeks. As soon as I was in the door，I yelled, “Any mail for me ” I usually heard, “No mail, Jessica.” With the deadline approaching, I still didn’t receive any money. I was so disappointed that I was beginning to lose confidence and thinking about giving up. My belief in the kindness of people was badly shaken. I wouldn’t get the money I needed. People were heartless.
But one day, I came home and heard five beautiful words: Jessica, you have two letters. I opened them eagerly to find each had a check for $50. Some people really cared! Over the next few days, more checks came, and I ended up with enough money to attend the forum. This experience taught me so much. There is goodness in the world, and making a difference in someone’s life, no matter how big or small, is what truly matters. So whenever I see people trying to raise money, I offer whatever I have to make their work a little easier.
