Holly Cooke wasn’t a fan of weekends. Whenever Friday rolled around, it was a reminder that she had no one to spend her spare time with.
“I was lonely,” said Cooke, who relocated from Stoke-on-Trent — a city in central England — to London when she was 22. “I moved here knowing no one.” She had high hopes of going to restaurants, bars and the theater as she had done before, but she didn’t want to do those activities alone. “I was desiring community: people who wanted to hang out and have fun,” said Cooke, now 26.
She grew so eager for company, she said that she eventually found herself Googling: “How to make friends in London.” The search proved futile, though she found a few other women who were also lonely in London on some social media apps.
Cooke decided to create a Facebook group called “The London Lonely Girls Club,” and invited the people she connected with on the apps to join. She then asked everyone to meet for brunch (早午餐). “It was so difficult,” she said, adding that she asked a friend from out of town to come in for the brunch, in case no one else showed up. “Saying that you’re lonely and you don’t have people around, admitting to that was really scary.”
Cooke was pleasantly surprised when five women showed up and they all got along well. This proved she was not alone in her loneliness, and that she could help others in the same situation. She decided to start planning meetups every few weeks, and word slowly spread about the Facebook group. Now, five years later, the London Lonely Girls Club has more than 35,000 members.
Cooke said she lost count of how many women have made lasting friendships through her group. “It’s beautiful and rewarding, and it’s the reason I’ve carried on,” she said. “As long as there is a need, we will be here.”
4. What can we learn about Holly Cooke
A. She was alone because of being addicted to social media apps.
B. She got used to the lifestyle of being alone on weekends.
C. She had little time to make friends after moving to London.
D. She used to meet friends on weekends when in Stoke-on-Trent.
5. What does the underlined word “futile” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Unsuccessful. B. Unstoppable.
C. Unusual. D. Unclear.
6. Why did Holly Cooke ask a friend from out of town to come to the brunch
A. She wanted to have an optional plan in case it didn’t work.
B. She wanted to introduce her friend to the other women.
C. She needed someone to help her to organize the meetup.
D. She was afraid that no one else would come as planned.
7. What do we know about the London Lonely Girls Club
A. It is well received. B. It is not rewarding.
C. It is less creative. D. It is not fruitful.
C
Tourists visiting La Gomera and EI Hierro in the Canary-Islands can often hear locals communicating over long distances by whistling — not a tune (曲调), but the Spanish language. The locals are communicating in Silbo, a whistled Spanish language.
Whistled languages are almost developed in rough, mountainous regions or in thick forest. That’s because whistled speech carries much farther than ordinary speech or shouting. As a result, whistled speech can be understood up to 10 times as far away as ordinary shouting. That lets people communicate even when they cannot easily approach close enough to shout. On La Gomera, for example, a few traditional shepherds (牧羊人) still whistle to one another across mountain valleys that could take hours to cross.
Whistled languages work because many of the key element s of speech can be produced in a whistle, says Meyer. We distinguish one speech sound from another by small differences in their sound frequency patterns. A long “e”, for example, is formed higher in the mouth than along “o”, giving it a higher sound.
To language scientists, such languages are more than just a curiosity. By studying whistled languages, they hope to learn about how our brains get meaning from the complex sound patterns of speech. Whisting may even provide a chance to know one of the most dramatic jump forward in human evolution (进化); the origin of language itself.
Despite their interest to both language experts and casual observers, whistled languages are disappearing rapidly all over the world, and some, such as the whistled form of the Tepehua language in Mexico, have disappeared. “Now you still find whistled speech only in places that are very, very remote, that have had less contact with modernity and less access to roads,” Meyer says.
Fortunately, there is still hope. UNESCO, the UN cultural organization, has listed two whistled languages, Silbo, and a whistled Turkish, as the world’s cultural heritage. Such attention can lead to conservation efforts.
8. What led to the development of whistled languages
A. Geographic inaccessibility. B. Rapid increase in tourism.
C. Greater information capacity. D. Interest of language experts.
9. Why are a long “e” and a long “o” mentioned in Paragraph 3
A. To show what key elements speech has.
B. To explain the differences between speech sound frequency patterns.
C. To prove the popularity of whistled language in the world.
D. To show the disadvantages of whistled languages.
10. What might be a reason for the disappearance of whistled languages according to Meyer
A. Difficulty of understanding. B. Lack of attention.
C. Expansion of other cultures. D. Modernization.
11. What does the underlined word “conservation” mean in the last paragraph
A. Impression. B. Experiment. C. Protection. D. Graduation.
D
What is the most shocking about the heatwave affecting the Pacific Northwest is not that it has hit a usually mild area, nor that so many long-standing temperature records are being broken. It is that those records are being broken by such large margins (幅度). In Portland, Oregon, temperature reached 46.6℃(116°F) — making it one of several cities in the region where former records have been beaten by a full 5℃(9°F). At the same time, heatwaves are also hitting central Europe and even Siberia.
Heatwaves may become headlines, but less attention is paid to them. In 2018 about 300,000 people over the age of 65 died as a result of extreme heat, mainly in India, a 54% increase since 2000, according to a report in the Lancet, a medical journal. The report also shows that, unlike storms and floods, heat does not lead to dramatic before-and-after pictures or widespread damage to belongings. It is a silent killer. As many as 70,000 people died due to a heatwave in Europe in 2003.
Heat also kills by worsening health conditions such as heart problems, so not all the deaths it causes may be directly attributed (归因) to it. Climate change will make heatwaves more common and more extreme. Even if greenhouse-gas emissions (排放) are cut to zero by the middle of this century, temperatures will go on rising for decades. So other measures are needed to protect people against extreme heat.
Governments can set up early warning systems to alarm health workers, shut down schools and stop outdoor activities. They can provide the public with forecasts of coming heatwaves, explanations of the dangers and detailed advice on what to do. Improved facilities can also help. This includes providing shaded areas, water parks and “misting stations” to help people cool down, and get to airconditioned “cooling centers” where they can find shelter and sleep if necessary.
The world is, undoubtedly, facing a big health challenge right now. There is no excuse for ignoring heatwaves and their effects.
12. What shocks us most about the heatwave in the Pacific Northwest
A. It has stricken a usually mild area.
B. It hits central Europe except Siberia.
C. Many temperature records are being broken.
D. Many records are being broken by large margins.
13. What can we learn from the report in the Lancer
A. People have paid much attention to heatwaves.
B. Heat doesn’t cause widespread damage to belongings.
C. The damage of heat is as obvious as storms and floods.
D. About 300,000 middle-aged people died from extreme heat.
14. What can governments do to protect people against heatwaves
A. Provide some cool places. B. Build nursing homes.
C. Organize outdoor activities. D. Shelter the homeless.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Improving Public Facilities B. Taking Heatwaves Seriously
C. Preventing Natural Disasters D. Reducing Greenhouse-gas Emission

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一个完整的短文。
One day my grandfather gave me a gift — a piggy bank. It had an opening through which one could put money in, but the opening was not big enough to reach in and get the money out. The only way to get at the money was to break the piggy bank open. My grandfather explained that was the whole idea; the piggy bank would help save my money so that, at the end of the year,I might have enough for that bike I dreamt about. He asked if I would put some of the money he gave me into the piggy bank. I agreed immediately and promised that I wouldn't break it open until I could afford my dream bike.
Whenever he gave me a little bit of money, he would say, "This is for spending. But you can save some and put it in the piggy bank if you want to save it up." When he gave me larger amounts, it was clearly for saving in the piggy bank. For some time, this worked fine. I loved shaking the piggy bank and hearing the sound of the coins. As it became heavier, I grew more excited, dreaming about buying my new bike, and all the adventures I could have on it
Whenever I wanted to take some money from the piggy bank to buy delicious ice-creams or beautiful pens,I would imagine riding my bike on the street,and thinking of that, my thoughts about ice-creams or pens went away. So for almost six months, I only put money into the piggy bank without taking any out. I thought I wouldn't break my piggy bank for anything. But one day something unexpected happened. I saw a piece of news on the television that a serious earthquake had happened in a nearby province. As many houses were destroyed, a lot of children became homeless. Seeing their shabby clothes and crying faces, I was sleepless that night.

Holly Cooke wasn’t a fan of weekends. Whenever Friday rolled around, it was a reminder that she had no one to spend her spare time with.
“I was lonely,” said Cooke, who relocated from Stoke-on-Trent — a city in central England — to London when she was 22. “I moved here knowing no one.” She had high hopes of going to restaurants, bars and the theater as she had done before, but she didn’t want to do those activities alone. “I was desiring community: people who wanted to hang out and have fun,” said Cooke, now 26.
She grew so eager for company, she said that she eventually found herself Googling: “How to make friends in London.” The search proved futile, though she found a few other women who were also lonely in London on some social media apps.
Cooke decided to create a Facebook group called “The London Lonely Girls Club,” and invited the people she connected with on the apps to join. She then asked everyone to meet for brunch (早午餐). “It was so difficult,” she said, adding that she asked a friend from out of town to come in for the brunch, in case no one else showed up. “Saying that you’re lonely and you don’t have people around, admitting to that was really scary.”
Cooke was pleasantly surprised when five women showed up and they all got along well. This proved she was not alone in her loneliness, and that she could help others in the same situation. She decided to start planning meetups every few weeks, and word slowly spread about the Facebook group. Now, five years later, the London Lonely Girls Club has more than 35,000 members.
Cooke said she lost count of how many women have made lasting friendships through her group. “It’s beautiful and rewarding, and it’s the reason I’ve carried on,” she said. “As long as there is a need, we will be here.”
4. What can we learn about Holly Cooke
A. She was alone because of being addicted to social media apps.
B. She got used to the lifestyle of being alone on weekends.
C. She had little time to make friends after moving to London.
D. She used to meet friends on weekends when in Stoke-on-Trent.
5. What does the underlined word “futile” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Unsuccessful. B. Unstoppable.
C. Unusual. D. Unclear.
6. Why did Holly Cooke ask a friend from out of town to come to the brunch
A. She wanted to have an optional plan in case it didn’t work.
B. She wanted to introduce her friend to the other women.
C. She needed someone to help her to organize the meetup.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。在伦敦定居的霍莉·库克(Holly Cooke),由于没有朋友而感到孤单,于是她创立了“伦敦孤独女孩俱乐部”帮助自己和其他女性找朋友,并取得了成功。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的““I was lonely,” said Cooke, who relocated from Stoke-on-Trent — a city in central England — to London when she was 22. “I moved here knowing no one.” She had high hopes of going to restaurants, bars and the theater as she had done before, but she didn’t want to do those activities alone. (“我很孤独,”库克说,她22岁时从英格兰中部城市特伦特河畔斯托克搬到了伦敦。“我搬到这里时不认识任何人。”她对像以前一样去餐馆、酒吧和剧院寄予厚望,但她不想一个人做这些活动)”可推知,库克在英格兰中部城市特伦特河畔斯托克的时候经常和朋友们出去聚会。故选D。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“She grew so eager for company, she said that she eventually found herself Googling: “How to make friends in London.” The search proved futile, though she found a few other women who were also lonely in London on some social media apps.(她说,她越来越渴望有人陪伴,最终发现自己在谷歌上搜索:“如何在伦敦交朋友。”事实证明,搜索大多是futile,尽管她在一些社交媒体应用程序上发现了其他一些在伦敦也很孤独的女性)”可知,库克想要通过网上搜索找朋友的结果并不成功,所以futile的意思应该是“不成功的,徒劳的”。A. Unsuccessful不成功的;B. Unstoppable不可阻挡的;C. Unusual不寻常的;D. Unclear不清楚的。故选A。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的““It was so difficult,” she said, adding that she asked a friend from out of town to come in for the brunch, in case no one else showed up. (“这太难了,”她说,并补充说,她请一位外地朋友来吃早午餐,以防没有其他人出现)”可知,库克请一位外地朋友来吃早午餐,以防没有其他人出现。故选D。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“Now, five years later, the London Lonely Girls Club has more than 35,000 members. (如今,五年过去了,伦敦孤独女孩俱乐部拥有35000多名会员)”可推知,伦敦孤独女孩俱乐部很受大家的欢迎。故选A。
C

Fortunately, there is still hope. UNESCO, the UN cultural organization, has listed two whistled languages, Silbo, and a whistled Turkish, as the world’s cultural heritage. Such attention can lead to conservation efforts.
8. What led to the development of whistled languages
A. Geographic inaccessibility. B. Rapid increase in tourism.
C. Greater information capacity. D. Interest of language experts.
9. Why are a long “e” and a long “o” mentioned in Paragraph 3
A. To show what key elements speech has.
B. To explain the differences between speech sound frequency patterns.
C. To prove the popularity of whistled language in the world.
D. To show the disadvantages of whistled languages.
10. What might be a reason for the disappearance of whistled languages according to Meyer
A. Difficulty of understanding. B. Lack of attention.
C. Expansion of other cultures. D. Modernization.
11. What does the underlined word “conservation” mean in the last paragraph
A. Impression. B. Experiment. C. Protection. D. Graduation.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了口哨语言的发展。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Whistled languages are almost developed in rough, mountainous regions or in thick forest. That’s because whistled speech carries much farther than ordinary speech or shouting. As a result, whistled speech can be understood up to 10 times as far away as ordinary shouting. That lets people communicate even when they cannot easily approach close enough to shout. (口哨几乎是在粗糙的山区或茂密的森林中发展起来的。这是因为吹口哨的讲话比普通的讲话或叫喊要远得多。因此,吹口哨讲话的理解力是普通叫喊的10倍。这让人们即使在无法轻易靠近大喊大叫的情况下也能进行交流)”可知,地理位置的不便促进了口哨语言的发展。故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“We distinguish one speech sound from another by small differences in their sound frequency patterns. A long “e”, for example, is formed higher in the mouth than along “o”, giving it a higher sound. (我们通过声音频率模式的微小差异来区分一种语音和另一种语音。例如,长“e”在口腔中形成的位置比沿着“o”的位置高,从而发出更高的声音)”可推知,第三段提到长“e”和“o”是为了解释声音频率模式之间的差异。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中““Now you still find whistled speech only in places that are very, very remote, that have had less contact with modernity and less access to roads,” Meyer says.(“现在,你仍然只能在非常、非常偏远的地方发现吹口哨的情况,这些地方与现代性的接触较少,道路也较少,”迈耶说)”可推知,在迈耶看来,现代化是口哨语言消失的原因。故选D。
【11题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线单词上文“Fortunately, there is still hope. UNESCO, the UN cultural organization, has listed two whistled languages, Silbo, and a whistled Turkish, as the world’s cultural heritage.(幸运是,还有希望。联合国教科文组织,已经将两种口哨语言,Silbo和一种口哨土耳其语,列为世界文化遗产)”可知,联合国教科文组织已将将两种口哨语言列为世界文化遗产,这是在保护口哨语言,这种关注会导致对口哨语言的保护。由此推知,划线单词意为“保护”,与C项“Protection.(保护)”意思一应。故选C。
D
What is the most shocking about the heatwave affecting the Pacific Northwest is not that it has hit a usually mild area, nor that so many long-standing temperature records are being broken. It is that those records are being broken by such large margins (幅度). In Portland, Oregon, temperature reached 46.6℃(116°F) — making it one of several cities in the region where former records have been beaten by a full 5℃(9°F). At the same time, heatwaves are also hitting central Europe and even Siberia.
Heatwaves may become headlines, but less attention is paid to them. In 2018 about 300,000 people over the age of 65 died as a result of extreme heat, mainly in India, a 54% increase since 2000, according to a report in the Lancet, a medical journal. The report also shows that, unlike storms and floods, heat does not lead to dramatic before-and-after pictures or widespread damage to belongings. It is a silent killer. As many as 70,000 people died due to a heatwave in Europe in 2003.
Heat also kills by worsening health conditions such as heart problems, so not all the deaths it causes may be directly attributed (归因) to it. Climate change will make heatwaves more common and more extreme. Even if greenhouse-gas emissions (排放) are cut to zero by the middle of this century, temperatures will go on rising for decades. So other measures are needed to protect people against extreme heat.
Governments can set up early warning systems to alarm health workers, shut down schools and stop outdoor activities. They can provide the public with forecasts of coming heatwaves, explanations of the dangers and detailed advice on what to do. Improved facilities can also help. This includes providing shaded areas, water parks and “misting stations” to help people cool down, and get to airconditioned “cooling centers” where they can find shelter and sleep if necessary.
The world is, undoubtedly, facing a big health challenge right now. There is no excuse for ignoring heatwaves and their effects.
12. What shocks us most about the heatwave in the Pacific Northwest
A. It has stricken a usually mild area.
B. It hits central Europe except Siberia.
C. Many temperature records are being broken.
D. Many records are being broken by large margins.
13. What can we learn from the report in the Lancer
A. People have paid much attention to heatwaves.
B. Heat doesn’t cause widespread damage to belongings.
C. The damage of heat is as obvious as storms and floods.
D. About 300,000 middle-aged people died from extreme heat.
14. What can governments do to protect people against heatwaves
A. Provide some cool places. B. Build nursing homes.
C. Organize outdoor activities. D. Shelter the homeless.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. Improving Public Facilities B. Taking Heatwaves Seriously
C. Preventing Natural Disasters D. Reducing Greenhouse-gas Emission
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了极端高温天气带来的影响,并就如何应对极端高温天气提出建议。
12题详解】
细节理解题。由文第一段第一、二句“What is the most shocking about the heatwave affecting the Pacific Northwest is not that it has hit a usually mild area, nor that so many long-standing temperature records are being broken. It is that those records are being broken by such large margins (幅度).”(热浪侵袭太平洋西北部造成的最严重的影响不仅在于它对一贯被划定为温带的地区造成了冲击,也不仅在于它正在打破许多长期以来的高温记录。而在于它正在以非常大的差距打破这些记录。)可知,最令人震惊的是许多温度记录正在被大幅度打破,故选D项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。由文第二段第三句“In 2018 about 300,000 people over the age of 65 died as a result of extreme heat, mainly in India, a 54% increase since 2000, according to a report in the Lancet, a medical journal. The report also shows that, unlike storms and floods, heat does not lead to dramatic before-and-after pictures or widespread damage to belongings.”(根据医学杂志《柳叶刀》的一份报告,2018年,约有30万65岁以上的人死于极端高温,主要在印度,自2000年以来增加了54%。报告还显示,与风暴和洪水不同,高温不会导致巨大的前后对比,也不会对财物造成大范围的破坏。)可知,高温不会对物品造成大面积损坏,故选B项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。由文第四段后部分“Improved facilities can also help. This includes providing shaded areas, water parks and “misting stations” to help people cool down, and get to airconditioned “cooling centers” where they can find shelter and sleep if necessary.”(改善设施也会有所帮助。这包括提供阴凉区、水上公园和“喷雾站”,帮助人们降温,并在必要时前往有空调“冷却中心”,在那里他们可以找到住所并睡觉。)可知,政府可以为人们提供降温设施和场地,故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文并结合末段末句“The world is, undoubtedly, facing a big health challenge right now. There is no excuse for ignoring heatwaves and their effects.”(毫无疑问,世界现在正面临着巨大的健康挑战。没有理由忽视热浪及其影响。)可知,本文介绍了极端高温天气带来的影响并呼吁人们重视热浪问题,所以“重视热浪”是文章最佳标题,故选B项。

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一个完整的短文。
One day my grandfather gave me a gift — a piggy bank. It had an opening through which one could put money in, but the opening was not big enough to reach in and get the money out. The only way to get at the money was to break the piggy bank open. My grandfather explained that was the whole idea; the piggy bank would help save my money so that, at the end of the year,I might have enough for that bike I dreamt about. He asked if I would put some of the money he gave me into the piggy bank. I agreed immediately and promised that I wouldn't break it open until I could afford my dream bike.
Whenever he gave me a little bit of money, he would say, "This is for spending. But you can save some and put it in the piggy bank if you want to save it up." When he gave me larger amounts, it was clearly for saving in the piggy bank. For some time, this worked fine. I loved shaking the piggy bank and hearing the sound of the coins. As it became heavier, I grew more excited, dreaming about buying my new bike, and all the adventures I could have on it
Whenever I wanted to take some money from the piggy bank to buy delicious ice-creams or beautiful pens,I would imagine riding my bike on the street,and thinking of that, my thoughts about ice-creams or pens went away. So for almost six months, I only put money into the piggy bank without taking any out. I thought I wouldn't break my piggy bank for anything. But one day something unexpected happened. I saw a piece of news on the television that a serious earthquake had happened in a nearby province. As many houses were destroyed, a lot of children became homeless. Seeing their shabby clothes and crying faces, I was sleepless that night.
注意:
1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右:
2.续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好;
Paragraph 1:
I knew I should do something.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
My grandfather was surprised by my behavior.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I knew I should do something. I went to my piggy bank and was about to break it and withdraw money when my mind came back to the bike I wanted to buy, and I hesitated.
