应用文：
Dear Dave,
I’m sorry to hear that you are addicted to playing computer games. I can understand how upset and stressed you must be,but I think it will surely harm to your health .Here are a few things you can do.
First, if I were you, I would try my best to limit the time spent on video games each day, so I could spend more time on other meaningful activities and hobbies. Another step would be finding purpose in reality, from enjoying face-to-face conversations with your family and friends to taking a walk in the sunshine. Immerse yourself in the pleasure of real life instead of a virtual world.
I am sure that with persistence, you’ll definitely get rid of your video game addiction. Looking forward to your good news.
Yours,
Li Hua

段落续写：由第一段首句内容“突然，一个男孩从公共汽车后面掉了下来。”可知，第一段可描写作者如何救助受伤的男孩。由第二段首句内容“第二天，我去医院看望那个男孩时，他的家人都站了起来，脸上带着感激的微笑。”可知，第二段描写作者去医院看望男孩，男孩及他的家人非常感激，作者感到满足和激动，且明确了自己的工作方向。
续写线索：（男孩的）危机一营救一看望男孩一男孩家人的反应一感悟。
One possible version:
Suddenly, a boy fell off the back of the bus. He hit the road face down and rolled over. He lay motionlessly in the middle of the road as the bus drove away quickly. The cars directly behind the bus braked to avoid the boy, but none stopped. I knew that if the boy was having bleeding in his brain, he could die soon. I stopped my car. I lifted his unconscious body into my car with the help of some passers-by, and then raced back to the hospital. Since I wasn’t allowed into the operation room, I drove home.
The next day, when I went to hospital to see the boy, all his family got up, with grateful smiles on their faces. The mother held my hands and started weeping. “Son, you are an angel,” she repeated over and over again. After comforting her, I went over to the boy. He managed to smile and squeezed my hand. No words were spoken between us—none were needed. I spent the rest of the day in a state of excitement, the most fabulous mood I had ever experienced. I knew what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.
【分析】这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四个著名的旅游景点。
21．细节理解题。根据题干关键词“the Terra-cotta Warriors”定位到表格“The Terra-cotta Warriors”中“ Other terracotta non-military figures were also found in other pits and they include officials, acrobats, strongmen and musicians.”（在其他坑中也发现了其他非军事人物的兵马俑，包括官员、杂技演员、铁腕人物和音乐家。）可知，游客在参观兵马俑时，可以看到被埋在地下的不同陶俑。故选A。
22．细节理解题。根据题干关键词“ light shows”可定位到表格“Eiffel Tower”中“The light show on it, designed by Pierre Bideau in 1985, is actually an artistic display and protected by copyright, explains. ”（灯光投射在埃菲尔铁塔上，这是由Pierre Bideau 于1985年设计，实际上是一个艺术展示，受到版权保护，Snopes网解释道。）可知，埃菲尔铁塔的灯光秀很出名。故选B。
23．细节理解题。根据题干关键词“ forbid taking photos”，结合表格中“The Terra-cotta Warriors”部分“Sadly, no photography or filming is allowed inside.”；“Eiffel Tower”部分“Taking photos is illegal, but the problem isn't with the building itself. ”；“Westminster Abbey”部分中“you're not allowed to take photos. ”；“The Sistine Chapel”部分中“ it's an upsetting thing that tourists aren't allowed to take photos around or inside.”，可知，四个景点都提到了禁止拍照的内容。故选D。
【分析】这是一篇说明文。人类猎杀动物获利，当野生动物保护组织让人们了解到野生动物被非法捕杀数量不断减少时，人们才行动起来抵制用野生动物制作的产品，法律更加严厉制裁偷猎者。但是人们对动物的保护运动和关注力一直在改变，作者希望对动物保护的关注和行动应该一直保持下去。
28．细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“What kills millions of animals all over the world is that humans want to make money by doing so.”（世界上数百万动物死亡的原因是人类想赚钱），可知，人类希望发财导致了数百万野生动物的消失，文中“kills millions of animals”（ 数百万的动物死亡）和问句中的“the disappearance of millions of wild animals”（数百万野生动物的消失）相呼应；文中“humans want to make money”（人类想赚钱）和B选项“Humans’ hope for making a fortune”（人类希望发财）相呼应。故选B。
29．推理判断题。根据第三句中的“During the late 1980s, saving elephants became a popular cause. Wildlife protection groups made sure everyone saw pictures or films of elephants with their faces cut off for their ivory...As a result, most people stopped buying objects made of ivory. Laws against poaching (偷猎) were made stronger. Many countries made importing ivory illegal. Killing elephants for their Ivory became more risky and less profitable (有利可图的).”（ 20世纪80年代末，拯救大象成了一个流行的事业。野生动物保护组织确保每个人都看到大象的照片或电影：它们的脸被切掉以获取象牙……结果，大多数人不再购买象牙制品。禁止偷猎的法律变得更加严格。许多国家禁止进口象牙。为得到象牙而捕杀大象变得更危险，利润也更低。），可知，在20世纪80年代末，野生动物保护组织确实做出了巨大努力。故选A。
30．细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“However, concern for certain species will become weak after a while.”（ 然而，对某些物种的关注会在一段时间后减弱。），可知，第4段提到了海豹宝宝，目的是表明对某些物种的担忧减少了。文中的“concern for certain species”与C选项中“worry about certain species”相对应；文中的“become weak”和C选项中“the decrease”相对应。故选C。
31．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“Other animal protection movements have come and gone...”(其他动物保护运动来了又去……)和最后一段第一句“In the years to come, people's attention will probably turn to some other endangered species.”（在未来的几年里，人们的关注力可能会转向其他一些濒危物种。），可知，对动物的保护运动和关注力一直在改变，那么在人们关注其他濒危物种时，大象会被遗忘吗？可以推断，作者说这句话的意思是，对动物保护的关注和行动应该一直保持下去。故选D。
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了“河狸公主”Chu Wenwen 的故事。
32．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“This animal, which feeds on the shrubs that grow near the river, has a strong sense of territory and won’t leave its surroundings easily.(这种动物以生长在河边的灌木为食，有很强的领地意识，不会轻易离开周围的环境。)”和“But fortunately for these picky animals…(但幸运的是，对于这些挑剔的动物来说……)”可知，河狸对于自己的生活环境很挑剔。故选D。
33．推理判断题。根据第二段“Chu was working hard to remember the names of different animals and plants(Chu正在努力记住不同动物和植物的名字)”可知，Chu 能识别很多动植物。故选C。
34．细节理解题。根据第四段“We took the beavers as a priority because they were greatly endangered at that time(我们把海狸作为优先考虑的对象，因为它们在当时非常濒危)”可知，Chu启动了第一个海狸公共项目，因为海狸可能很快就会灭绝。故选D。
35．主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“But fortunately for these picky animals, they have a responsible protector, Beaver Princess, Chu Wenwen.( 但幸运的是，这些挑剔的动物，他们有一个负责任的保护者，海狸公主， Chu Wenwen。)”可知，文章主要讲述了“河狸公主”Chu Wenwen 的故事。故选A。

A
The Terra-cotta Warriors The Terracotta Army or the "Terra Cotta Warriors and Horses", is a collection of terracotta sculptures showing the armies of Qin Shi Huang, the first Emperor of China. The purpose was to protect the emperor in his afterlife, and to make sure that he had people to rule over. Other terracotta non-military figures were also found in other pits (坑)and they include officials, acrobats, strongmen and musicians. Sadly, no photography or filming is allowed inside.
Eiffel Tower If you are planning a romantic getaway to Paris, don't think about posting a selfie in front of the Eiffel Tower. Taking photos is illegal, but the problem isn't with the building itself. The light show on it, designed by Pierre Bideau in 1985, is actually an artistic display and protected by copyright, explains. And since the lights go every five minutes, snapping a photo that doesn't break the law is impossible.
Westminster Abbey Westminster Abbey is a wonderful Gothic church. Yet no matter how historic or breathtaking it may be. you're not allowed to take photos. Luckily, there is a pretty good reason for it, according to the church's website: "We want you to take in its unique beauty and history without any distractions. We want to keep the sacred atmosphere of a church."
The Sistine Chapel As it's one of the most popular tourist attractions in the world, it's an upsetting thing that tourists aren't allowed to take photos around or inside. The chapel went under repair work funded by the Nippon Television Network Corporation of Japan. The costs ended up being $4.2 million. In return, Nippon got special rights to film and photograph the artwork. That copyright actually ended three years after each part was complete, but the Vatican decided to keep the ban in place to protect the precious artwork from harmful camera flashes.
21．What can tourists enjoy when visiting the Terra-cotta Warriors
A．Different figures buried underground. B．Masses of amazing palaces around.
C．A wonderful film of a great emperor. D．The future life of the non-military people.
22．Which of the places above is noted for light shows
A．The Terra-cotta Warriors B．Eiflfel Tower
C．Westminster Abbey D．The Sistine Chapel
23．How many of these places forbid taking photos
A．One. B．Two. C．Three. D．Four.
B
I have worked as a keeper at the National Zoo, Paris for 11 years. Spot and Stripe are the first tiger cubs（幼兽） that have ever been born here. Globally, a third of Sumatran cubs in zoos don't make it to adulthood, so I decided to give them round-the clock care at home.
I've got two children the younger one, Kynan, was extremely happy about the tigers arriving, but all of us really looked forward to being part of their lives and watching them grow.I wasn't worried about bringing them into my home with my wife and kids. These were cubs. They weighed about 2.5 kg and were so small that there was absolutely no risk.
As they grew more mobile, we let them move freely around the house during the day, but when we were asleep we had to contain them in a large room, otherwise they'd get up to mischief. We'd come down in the morning to find they'd turned the room upside down, and left it looking like a zoo.
Things quickly got very intense due to the huge amount of energy required to look after them. There were some tough times and I just felt extremely tired. I was grateful that my family was there to help. We had to have a bit of a production line going making up“tiger milk”, washing baby bottles, and cleaning the floors.
When Spot and Stripe were four months old, they were learning how to open doors and jump fences, and we knew it really was time for them to go. It was hard for us to finally part with them. For the first few days, Kynan was always a bit disappointed that the cubs weren't there.
I'm not sad about it. I'm hands-on with them every day at the zoo, and I do look back very fondly on the time that we had them.
24. Why did the author bring the tiger cubs home
A. To ensure their survival. B. To observe their differences.
C. To teach them life skills. D. To let them play with his kids.
25. What do the underlined words“get up to mischief" mean in Paragraph 3
A. Behave badly. B. Lose their way.
C. Sleep soundly. D. Miss their mum.
26. What did the author think of raising the tiger cubs at home
A. Boring. B. Tiring. C. Costly. D. Risky.
27. Why did the author decide to send Spot and Stripe back to the zoo
A. They frightened the children. B. They became difficult to contain.
C. They annoyed the neighbours. D. They started fighting each other.
C
Many of the Earth's creatures die because of humans' choices. These choices have nothing to do with food or shelter or anything else that helps humans survive. What kills millions of animals all over the world is that humans want to make money by doing so.
People use parts of animals for everything from hats to handbags, from jewelry to ashtrays and to make powders that supposedly improve a person's life. Deciding that a species is endangered and protecting it by law are not always enough. People who kill wildlife illegally rarely get caught.
During the late 1980s, saving elephants became a popular cause. Wildlife protection groups made sure everyone saw pictures or films of elephants with their faces cut off for their ivory. These groups also proved that certain populations of elephants were decreasing. As a result, most people stopped buying objects made of ivory. Laws against poaching (偷猎) were made stronger. Many countries made importing ivory illegal. Killing elephants for their Ivory became more risky and less profitable (有利可图的).
However, concern for certain species will become weak after a while. In the late 1970s, people protested (抗议) against the killing of seal babies. Everyone was shocked to see young seals being killed in their icy habitat. The cruel activity stopped. But ten years later, the number of seal babies killed was higher than ever.
Other animal protection movements have come and gone, such as saving the whales and protecting dolphins. The whale population appears to have increased for now. And the laws are finally changed in America to protect the dolphins that swim with tuna fish in parts of the Pacific Ocean.
In the years to come, people's attention will probably turn to some other endangered species. Plenty of them urgently need attention. During this time, will the elephants be forgotten
28．What leads to the disappearance of millions of wild animals
A．The growing human population. B．Humans’ hope for making profits.
C．Humans’ too much need for wild food. D．Not having enough laws on wildlife protection..
29．What can you infer from the text about what happened in the late 1980s
A．Wildlife protection groups did make great efforts to. B.Importing ivory in all countries is illegal.
C．Those who killed elephants all got caught. D．Hunting was completely not allowed.
30．Why are seal babies mentioned in Paragraph 4
A．To show the effort to protect seal babies. B．To show an increasing number of seal babies.
C．To show the decrease of worry about certain species.
D．To show people’s protest against the killing of seal babies.
31．What does the author mean by using the underlined sentence
A．Humans should choose some rare animals to protect.
B．Attention must be paid to saving some endangered wildlife.
C．Success has been achieved in quite a few cases of wildlife protection.
D．Concern and movements for animal protection should be always kept.
D
Along the Ulungur River in Altay, the northernmost area of Xinjiang, lives a species of beaver(河狸). This animal, which feeds on the shrubs (灌木) that grow near the river, has a strong sense of territory (领地) and won’t leave its surroundings easily. So if people ruin the river, the beavers’ homes will be destroyed and they will no longer survive. But fortunately for these picky animals, they have a responsible protector, Beaver Princess, Chu Wenwen.
Chu had a very different childhood. She was introduced to the wild at the age of 2 by her father who is an animal conservationist. So when the other children were reciting ancient Chinese poems and English alphabet,Chu was working hard to remember the names of different animals and plants. So instead of being a white-collar worker after graduating from Beijing Forestry University, Chu decided to return home and follow in her father’s footsteps.
In Chu’s hometown of Altay, there are 466 species of wild animals and 74 state-protected ones living in the surrounding 110,000 square kilometers. In 2018, Chu founded the Altay Natural Conservation Association which is aimed at animal protection.
The first public project Chu started was for beavers. “We took the beavers as a priority because they were greatly endangered at that time,” Chu said. “The beavers, which can build dams, are known as ‘engineers’ in the animal kingdom. Their dams can change water levels, gather fish, attract birds to nest and bring insects,” Chu explained.
Chu developed the “Beavers Canteen” program which calls on people to donate to help plant a species of shrub that is an important food resource for the beavers. The shrub is also the building material of the beavers. The clever animal makes full use of it.
32．What can we know about beavers
A．They feed on shrubs and fish. B．They give up their homes easily.
C．They are good at finding new territory. D．They are particular about their surroundings.
33．What can we infer from paragraph 2
A．Chu had a difficult childhood. B．Chu dreamed of being a white-collar worker.
C．Chu know different plants and animals. D．Chu preferred reciting poems to English words.
34．Why did Chu start the first public project for beavers
A．Chu likes beavers most. B．Beavers can build dams
C．Chu took her father’s advice. D．Beavers will probably go extinct soon.
35．What's the best title of the text
A．Beaver Princess B．Beaver Projects
C．How to Protect Beavers D．How to Improve Environment

第二节 读后续写（满分25分）
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两端，使之构成一个完整的短文。
In 1989, fresh out of high school, I had the difficult task of choosing a career path before college started in three months. In those days in Pakistan, there were limited options: becoming a doctor or an engineer, or entering the financial world after getting a business degree. I wasn’t interested in engineering, so I was left with medicine and business. I couldn’t decide.
My uncle, an influential person in the family, suggested that I do a work placement to experience it for a month in an international company followed by a month in a hospital.After that, I could make a decision. It seemed like a brilliant idea.
I was accepted for a month’s placement at a foreign bank in Karachi. I got a feel for how the world of finance functioned, made new friends, and generally enjoyed the mostly easy-going work surroundings.
The month passed rapidly, and soon I began working at a leading hospital in Karachi. The experience couldn’t have been more different. The hospital had an intense environment. The days started early (at 7 am, compared to 9 am at the bank), and were filled with endless duties, and the night calls! This was crazy, working all day, through the night, and again the next day.
I began thinking about my two experiences. The bank had offered a more relaxing atmosphere, better working hours and less stress. The hospital was full of excitement and unpredictability, but the studying and training was difficult. It seemed that the business option was going to win out. Near the end of my month at the hospital, I was driving home after an especially busy night call. In front of me was a public bus, with college students sitting on the top. As the driver weaved through（穿梭）traffic, I could see the boys shaking from side to side.

Suddenly, a boy fell off the back of the bus. ___________________________________________

The next day, when I went to hospital to see the boy, all his family got up, with grateful smiles on their faces.
