Aesha Ash is a ballet dancer who began The Swan Dreams Project in 2011. It is a program designed to bring ballet to girls of color in her community. Aesha Ash is one of the few women of color to ever grace the stages of the School of American Ballet in New York City. She wants to expose her community to more positive images of women of color through the use of ballet. She wants to show the world that beauty and grace are not defined by status or race.
Aesha grew up in the inner city of Rochester, New York, where crime, gun violence and poverty were among the biggest threats to the community. For her, that’s normal. That’s just life in the neighborhood, but what she remembers most is the dance studio. She started dancing at the age of five. A teacher mentioned to her mother that she had some promise in ballet, and that it would be difficult for her, as a woman of color, to enter the ballet world. But the hardship she faced was the very thing that pushed her to pursue a career in ballet.
And there’s so much negative stereotypes (刻板印象) and misunderstanding of who they are in the media. Through the use of imagery and her career as a ballet dancer, she challenges stereotypes that exist for women of color, particularly those from inner-city communities.
“It’s important that our girls see that side of themselves because for many kids it’s hard to be what you can’t see. I hadn’t seen a black ballet dancer before I decided that was what I wanted to be. It was really important for me to be in my environment displaying that because this is where I’m from. It was always beyond ballet,” Aesha Ash stated.
4. Why did Aesha start The Swan Dreams Project
A. To promote the images of females of color by ballet.
B. To expose her community to a world of women of color.
C. To grace the stages of the School of American Ballet.
D. To show the world that beauty and grace are defined by status.
5. Which of the following best describes the community she grew up in
A. Comfortable. B. Ancient. C. Peaceful. D. Unsafe.
6. What can’t we know from the passage
A. Aesha had a gift for ballet according to her teacher.
B. The hardship Aesha faced was the color of her skin.
C. Acsha wanted to be a ballet dancer because of a woman dancer of color.
D. It is not easy to change the stereotypes that exist for women of color.
7. What is the main idea of the text
A. A teacher provides chances for girls of color. B. A woman brings ballet to the girls of color.
C. Ballet changes the life of a woman of color. D. A woman has changed the negative stereotypes.
C
Humans’ ever spreading presence around the globe influences patterns of biological evolution in ways that we are just beginning to explore. On the Galápagos Islands, a body of evidence shows that the effect of our presence is increasing.
Luis F. De Leon from the University of Massachusetts Boston, together with other 6 scientists spent two years observing Darwin’s finches (雀科小鸟) to evaluate our effects on their behavior. They started by conducting feeding observations on coexisting finch species at sites that ranged from non-urban areas to urban areas. They also employed finch-human interaction experiments to test whether and how finches respond to human presence. To measure whether finch feeding preferences varied with the degree of urbanization, “cafeteria” experiments were carried out — finches were presented with a selection of human and native food items.
The scientists found that Darwin’s finches fed almost on human foods like rice and cookies or introduced garden species at urban locations. In contrast, at non-urban sites, finches fed mainly on native plant species and insects. Interaction tests suggest that urban birds get more accustomed to the presence of humans. Finally, at all sites of regular human presence, finches preferred human foods to natural foods.
The researchers warn that exploiting urban environments might present challenges for organisms (有机体), including shorter lifespans brought by the consumption of highly processed foods. Furthermore, the year-round availability of abundant human foods in urban environments might affect ecological and evolutionary processes that promoted species diversity. While the results clearly show a shift to human foods at urban sites, the adaptive significance of that shift is still an open question.
These findings also suggest that human behavior is the main driver of finch preference for human foods. The researchers propose a possibility that the effect of human behavior is facilitated by our tendency to feed birds, directly or inadvertently via food dropping or littering.
8. How did the scientists carry out the study
A. By carrying out experiments in labs. B. By training finches and observing results
C. By observing finches in different sites. D. By analyzing findings from previous experiments.
9. Which is probably finches’ favorite food at non-urban sites frequently visited by humans
A. Rice. B. An insect.
C. The leaves of a native plant. D. The seed of an introduced plant.
10. What can we learn from the findings
A. All finches observed are willing to approach humans.
B. Human food availability might lead to biodiversity loss.
C. The reason for the shift of finch diets remains unknown.
D. The more processed foods finches consume, the longer they live.
11. What does the underlined word in paragraph 5 probably mean
A. Illegally. B. Voluntarily. C. Deliberately. D. Unintentionally.

Jenny was a pretty eight-year-old girl.
One day when she and her mother were checking out at the grocery store, Jenny saw a plastic pearl necklace, by which she was totally defeated. How eagerly she wanted it! But when she saw the price, her heart sank a little. She gathered up her courage and asked her mother if she would buy it for her. Her mother said, “Well, it is a pretty necklace, but it costs an awful lot of money. I can buy you the necklace, but when we get home, we should make up a list of housework that you can do to pay for the necklace.” Jenny agreed immediately, feeling a burst of joy. So her mother bought the pearl necklace for her. Jenny worked on her housework determinedly and earnestly every day. Soon Jenny paid off the pearls.
Jenny had a very loving daddy. When Jenny went to bed he would read Jenny her favorite story. One night when he finished the story, he said, “Jenny, do you love me ” “Oh, yes, Daddy, you know I love you.” the little girl said delightedly, with a broad smile on her face. “Well, then, give me your pearls.” Hearing that, Jenny froze there, an anxious expression twisting her face. “Oh! Daddy, not my pearls! But you can have Rosy, my favorite doll. Remember her You gave her to me last year for my birthday. Okay ” “Oh no, darling, that’s okay.” Her father brushed her cheek with a kiss, gently and calmly. “Good night, little one.”
A week later, her father once again asked Jenny after her story, “Do you love me ” “Oh yes, Daddy, you know I love you.” the little girl murmured softly, trying to escape from her father’s eyes. “Well, then, give me your pearls.” “Oh, Daddy, not my pearls! But you can have Ribbons, my toy horse. Do you remember her She is my favorite.” The little girl begged. “No, that’s okay,” her father said, smiling broadly and sweetly and brushed her cheek again with a kiss. “God bless you, little one. Sweet dreams.”

Aesha Ash is a ballet dancer who began The Swan Dreams Project in 2011. It is a program designed to bring ballet to girls of color in her community. Aesha Ash is one of the few women of color to ever grace the stages of the School of American Ballet in New York City. She wants to expose her community to more positive images of women of color through the use of ballet. She wants to show the world that beauty and grace are not defined by status or race.
Aesha grew up in the inner city of Rochester, New York, where crime, gun violence and poverty were among the biggest threats to the community. For her, that’s normal. That’s just life in the neighborhood, but what she remembers most is the dance studio. She started dancing at the age of five. A teacher mentioned to her mother that she had some promise in ballet, and that it would be difficult for her, as a woman of color, to enter the ballet world. But the hardship she faced was the very thing that pushed her to pursue a career in ballet.
And there’s so much negative stereotypes (刻板印象) and misunderstanding of who they are in the media. Through the use of imagery and her career as a ballet dancer, she challenges stereotypes that exist for women of color, particularly those from inner-city communities.
“It’s important that our girls see that side of themselves because for many kids it’s hard to be what you can’t see. I hadn’t seen a black ballet dancer before I decided that was what I wanted to be. It was really important for me to be in my environment displaying that because this is where I’m from. It was always beyond ballet,” Aesha Ash stated.
4. Why did Aesha start The Swan Dreams Project
A. To promote the images of females of color by ballet.
B. To expose her community to a world of women of color.
C. To grace the stages of the School of American Ballet.
D. To show the world that beauty and grace are defined by status.
5. Which of the following best describes the community she grew up in
A. Comfortable. B. Ancient. C. Peaceful. D. Unsafe.
6. What can’t we know from the passage
A. Aesha had a gift for ballet according to her teacher.
B. The hardship Aesha faced was the color of her skin.
C. Acsha wanted to be a ballet dancer because of a woman dancer of color.
D. It is not easy to change the stereotypes that exist for women of color.
7. What is the main idea of the text

Humans’ ever spreading presence around the globe influences patterns of biological evolution in ways that we are just beginning to explore. On the Galápagos Islands, a body of evidence shows that the effect of our presence is increasing.
Luis F. De Leon from the University of Massachusetts Boston, together with other 6 scientists spent two years observing Darwin’s finches (雀科小鸟) to evaluate our effects on their behavior. They started by conducting feeding observations on coexisting finch species at sites that ranged from non-urban areas to urban areas. They also employed finch-human interaction experiments to test whether and how finches respond to human presence. To measure whether finch feeding preferences varied with the degree of urbanization, “cafeteria” experiments were carried out — finches were presented with a selection of human and native food items.
The scientists found that Darwin’s finches fed almost on human foods like rice and cookies or introduced garden species at urban locations. In contrast, at non-urban sites, finches fed mainly on native plant species and insects. Interaction tests suggest that urban birds get more accustomed to the presence of humans. Finally, at all sites of regular human presence, finches preferred human foods to natural foods.
The researchers warn that exploiting urban environments might present challenges for organisms (有机体), including shorter lifespans brought by the consumption of highly processed foods. Furthermore, the year-round availability of abundant human foods in urban environments might affect ecological and evolutionary processes that promoted species diversity. While the results clearly show a shift to human foods at urban sites, the adaptive significance of that shift is still an open question.
These findings also suggest that human behavior is the main driver of finch preference for human foods. The researchers propose a possibility that the effect of human behavior is facilitated by our tendency to feed birds, directly or inadvertently via food dropping or littering.
8. How did the scientists carry out the study
A. By carrying out experiments in labs. B. By training finches and observing results
C. By observing finches in different sites. D. By analyzing findings from previous experiments.
9. Which is probably finches’ favorite food at non-urban sites frequently visited by humans
A. Rice. B. An insect.
C. The leaves of a native plant. D. The seed of an introduced plant.
10. What can we learn from the findings
A. All finches observed are willing to approach humans.
B. Human food availability might lead to biodiversity loss.
C. The reason for the shift of finch diets remains unknown.
D. The more processed foods finches consume the longer they live.
11. What does the underlined word in paragraph 5 probably mean
A. Illegally. B. Voluntarily. C. Deliberately. D. Unintentionally.
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. D
【解析】

32. A number of local people have been arrested for trying to stop trucks ________(load) with logs.(所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】loaded
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：大量打敌人因试图阻止装载原木的卡车而被逮捕。根据句子分析可知，此处作定语，修饰trucks，trucks与load之间为被动关系，应用过去分词，作后置定语。故填loaded。
33. The hungry bear followed his nose to our camp, which ________ (surround) by a high wire fence. （所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】was surrounded
【解析】
【详解】考查时态和语态。句意：饥饿的熊凭着嗅觉来到了我们的营地，营地被高高的铁丝栅栏包围着。根据句中followed可知，句子使用一般过去时，分析句子，which引导定语从句，修饰先行词our camp，关系词which指代先行词，所以surround与主语which之间是被动关系，空处应用一般过去时的被动语态，且our camp是单数，be动词应用was。故填was surrounded。
34. Peter, lifting his head, stared at the grandma with round, ________(astonish) eyes. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】astonished
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意：彼得抬起头，惊讶地瞪着圆圆的眼睛盯着奶奶。空处应用形容词，作定语修饰eyes。astonished意为“惊讶的”，常用来修饰人或人的表情等。故填astonished。
35. He passionately desired ________ (continue) his career. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】to continue
【解析】
【详解】考查不定式。句意：他热切地希望继续他的事业。desire to do是固定短语，意为“渴望做某事”，因此空格处是不定式to continue。故填to continue。
36. The scientist devoted himself________(entire) to his research.(所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】entirely
【解析】
【详解】考查副词。句意：这位科学家全身心投入到他的研究中。分析句子结构，空处修饰动词短语devote oneself to，应使用副词，故填entirely。
37. You should have a goal ___(relate) to your life purpose at the beginning of a year. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】related
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意：在年初你应该有一个跟你生活目的相关的目标。 related意为“有关系的”，和下文to your life purpose构成形容词短语，作定语修饰goal。故填related。
38. The crash _______ (occur) when the plane took off 6 minutes later, killing all passengers on board. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】occurred
【解析】
【详解】考查时态。句意：飞机起飞后6分钟就发生了坠毁，机上的所有乘客遇难。此处作谓语动词，主语为the crash，根据后文的took off可知，此处应用一般过去时，故填occurred。
39. As a result, she says, some of the ________(injury) associated with running, such as runner’s knee, are uncommon among race walkers. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】injuries
【解析】
【详解】考查名词复数。句意：因此，她说，一些与跑步有关的损伤，比如跑步者的膝盖，在竞走运动员中并不常见。根据句意及所给句子可知，此处作主语，injury“损伤”是可数名词，空前有some，应用名词复数形式。故填injuries。
40. Currently, about 35,000 works ________(display) in over 300 rooms in the Louvre, and it is a good chance to see everything amazing! (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】are being displayed
【解析】
【详解】考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意：目前，大约35000件作品正在卢浮宫的300多个房间里展出，这是一个很好的机会，可以看到所有令人惊叹的东西！根据句中的Currently可知，这里表示现在正在进行的动作，应用现在进行时。主语about 35,000 works表示复数，谓语应用复数形式，且主语和display之间是动宾关系，所以应用被动语态。故填are being displayed。
41. Large amounts of food ________(transport) to the earthquake-striken area in the past few weeks. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】have been transported
【解析】
【详解】考查时态和语态。句意：在过去的几周里，大量的食物被运送到地震灾区。动词transport与名词food之间是被动关系，根据时间状语in the past few weeks可知，应用现在完成时的被动语态。amounts of的意思是“大量的”，修饰不可数名词作主语时谓语用复数形式，故填have been transported。

【解析】
【分析】本文为一篇说明文，介绍了中国的第一家3D打印混凝土书店的相关信息。
【详解】1.考查名词。句意：上海智慧湾创新园区正在建设一家混凝土书店，这将是中国第一家3D打印书店，预计于2021年1月底向公众开放。分析句子可知，under“在……之下”后应该填写名词作宾语，construct“建设”为动词，应该改为对应的名词。故填construction。
2.考查定语从句。句意：周四，北京清华大学建筑学院负责该项目的何宇庭告诉《环球时报》：“书店在三周内就完成了现场印刷。”本句为非限制性定语从句，He Yuting为人名，为先行词，作定语从句的主语，用who引导定语从句。故填who。
3.考查时态和语态。句意：他告诉记者，印刷工作已经完成，书店将装修。分析句子可知，and连接并列句，decorate与bookstore构成动宾关系，句子被动语态，且根据will可知，此处为一般将来时。故填be decorated。
4.考查过去分词。句意：他说，与3D打印花盆等简单作品相比，这家书店是建筑领域的创新尝试，因为3D打印建筑比传统施工技术更便宜，更节省时间。分析句子结构可知，逗号前作句子的状语，逻辑主语the bookstore与compare为被动关系，此处用过去分词作状语。故填Compared。
5.考查形容词比较级。句意同上。根据than“比”可知，句子为比较级，且放在is后面用cheap的比较级cheaper作表语。故填cheaper。
6.考查主语从句。句意：让这家书店如此独特的是，“我们使用了纤维混凝土来抵抗压缩，”他补充道，并指出地板上还有一个供暖系统。分析句子结构可知，is前面的部分为主句部分的主语，为主语从句，且从句部分缺少句子的主语，用what指代。故填What。
7.考查现在分词。句意同上。分析句子可知，空处表示伴随状语，且逻辑主语he与note为主动关系，用note的现在分词。故填nothing。
8.考查短语。句意：他提到，从结构和抗震性能的实验数据来看，3D打印书店和传统的混凝土建筑一样安全。in terms of意思为：在……方面，符合题意。故填terms。
9.考查时态。句意：到目前为止，法国、瑞士和俄罗斯的不同团队都对3D打印混凝土技术进行了类似的研究，但中国在该领域的研究和成果是世界上最好的。根据so far可知，句子为现在完成时，主语为teams，为复数名词。故填have had。
10.考查连词。句意同上。空处缺少连词连接两个句子，且后句为前一句的转折或者递进关系，用连词but或者and。故填but/and。

53. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。
Jenny was a pretty eight-year-old girl.
One day when she and her mother were checking out at the grocery store, Jenny saw a plastic pearl necklace, by which she was totally defeated. How eagerly she wanted it! But when she saw the price, her heart sank a little. She gathered up her courage and asked her mother if she would buy it for her. Her mother said, “Well, it is a pretty necklace, but it costs an awful lot of money. I can buy you the necklace, but when we get home, we should make up a list of housework that you can do to pay for the necklace.” Jenny agreed immediately, feeling a burst of joy. So her mother bought the pearl necklace for her. Jenny worked on her housework determinedly and earnestly every day. Soon Jenny paid off the pearls.
Jenny had a very loving daddy. When Jenny went to bed, he would read Jenny her favorite story. One night when he finished the story, he said, “Jenny, do you love me ” “Oh, yes, Daddy, you know I love you.” the little girl said delightedly, with a broad smile on her face. “Well, then, give me your pearls.” Hearing that, Jenny froze there, an anxious expression twisting her face. “Oh! Daddy, not my pearls! But you can have Rosy, my favorite doll. Remember her You gave her to me last year for my birthday. Okay ” “Oh no, darling, that’s okay.” Her father brushed her cheek with a kiss, gently and calmly. “Good night, little one.”
A week later, her father once again asked Jenny after her story, “Do you love me ” “Oh yes, Daddy, you know I love you.” the little girl murmured softly, trying to escape from her father’s eyes. “Well, then, give me your pearls.” “Oh, Daddy, not my pearls! But you can have Ribbons, my toy horse. Do you remember her She is my favorite.” The little girl begged. “No, that’s okay,” her father said, smiling broadly and sweetly and brushed her cheek again with a kiss. “God bless you, little one. Sweet dreams.”

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1：
Several days later, when Jenny’s father came in to read her story, Jenny was waiting anxiously for him on the bed. When listening to the story, Jenny was totally absent-minded, with her hands holding the necklace tightly and firmly. When the story came to an end, unexpectedly, Jenny offered her beloved necklace to her father, with her fingers trembling automatically. No one knew what the necklace meant to her. She whispered to her father, softly and gently, “Daddy, you know I love you more than the necklace.” Then, the necklace slid into her father’s hands determinedly.
Paragraph 2：
Holding the plastic pearl his daughter offered, the father dragged out a blue box. Much to Jenny’s amazement, a beautiful real pearl necklace lay peacefully in the box, which set her heart racing. Jenny froze there, a thrilled expression twisting her face. Before Jenny was able to say something. her father brushed a warm kiss on her face and gathered her into his arms. Holding the genuine necklace in her hand, Jenny lifted her lip, tears beginning to blur her vision.
【解析】
【分析】本篇书面表达考查读后续写。
【详解】读后续写主要以故事类文本为主，考生在阅读时，不应该走马观花看情节，而应找出文章的六要素（who, when, where, what, how, why），然后将每个主要事件都用六要素串联成一句话。这样一来，冗长的故事就成了两三句，文章的结构自然清晰明了。同时，考生还应该分析已给出的两个开头句包含的主要句子结构，这样才能保证正确的写作方向。为了写出符合故事发展的“尾巴”，必须先分析原文的情节发展方向。除了采用上文提到过的六要素分析法，在审题时还应该着重分析三个点：起因、转折、高潮。只有确定了故事的起因，考生才能合理推断这个起因会导致的可能结果；只有确定了故事的转折，考生才能合理地将故事发展下去。不过，在设计情节时，同样要考虑六要素，将它们串联成一句话，再将这句话添砖加瓦变成段落。在语言方面，注意主谓语一致，时态呼应，用词贴切，合理使用高分词汇、短语及句型；不要抄原文，情节合情合理；书写美观，保持卷面整洁。
【点睛】范文内容完整，结构严谨，要点全面，语言规范，语篇连贯，词数适当，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系。作者在范文中使用了高级句子When listening to the story, Jenny was totally absent-minded, with her hands holding the necklace tightly and firmly.使用了状语从句的省略，和with复合结构；Holding the plastic pearl his daughter offered, the father dragged out a blue box.使用了非谓语动词做状语；Much to Jenny’s amazement, a beautiful real pearl necklace lay peacefully in the box, which set her heart racing.使用了which引导的定语从句。这些为文章增色不少，而且全文中没有中国式英语的句式，显示了很高的驾驭英语的能力。另外，文章思路清晰、层次分明，上下句转换自然，为文章增色添彩。
