Chinese volleyball superstar Zhu Ting has inspired a new English word. "Stay awesome and ZHUperb!" wrote a blogger at a US-based volleyball website. The word combines "Zhu" and "superb (卓越的)", to describe the 27-year-old player.
Zhu's excellent scoring performances put her among the Top 10 Global Outstanding Athletes for this year's Heracles Prize of the Big Ben Award. As the captain, Zhu "created the new golden age of women's volleyball in China", the award said. Zhu is considered a national hero by many in China, with good reason. Before this year's World Cup victory, she helped the national volleyball team win the 2015 FIVB World Cup, the 2015 Asian Women's Volleyball Championship, and the 2016 Rio Olympic Games.
Although she's a superstar now, it hasn't been easy for Zhu to get to where she is. Born to a farming family in Henan province, Zhu earned a chance to attend a local sports school at age 13. She became well known to the public by helping China's U20 team win the 2013 FIVB U20 World Championship. Shortly after, Zhu joined the national team and began playing under legendary coach Lang Ping.
At first, the 1. 98-meter-tall Zhu found it difficult to move quickly and stay balanced. But Lang Ping took advantage of her height and trained her to jump high and smash balls. Her work paid off. Zhu is now an outstanding player. "Hard work and talent are equally important. I'll move forward step by step," she told People's Daily.
4. Why was "ZHUperb" created
A. To create a new game. B. To introduce a volleyball website.
C. To describe the volleyball superstar. D. To celebrate her winning of World Cup.
5. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us

C. Zhu Ting's achievements. D. Zhu Ting's future plan.
6. When did Zhu Ting become famous to the publics
A. In 2000. B. In 2013. C. In 2015. D. In 2016.
7. What was the purpose of Lang Ping's plan for training Zhu Ting

B. To make use of her advantages.
C. To train her to be the captain of the team.
D. To instruct her to move forward step by step.

An afternoon nap(午睡)is one of the joys of life, although too much napping could signal all is not well. In some cultures, people will have a daily nap — this is fine. The warning comes when people start sleeping during the daytime, when they did not before. There is certainly a good reason to believe that daytime sleepiness — as in the Alzheimer's study — can be a marker of an underlying condition.
For most people, napping during the day is mainly a sign that you are not getting enough sleep at night, says Dr. Neil Stanley, a sleep expert. "If you feel sleepy during the day, you should think about taking a nap. That is what the body needs — it doesn't need to be kept awake with caffeine, it needs sleep. "The feeling to notice is "sleepiness", he says, not "tiredness", which could be more psychological and linked to stress.
So how do you nap well The key thing, says Stanley, is how long your nap lasts. Choose either a 20-or 90-minute nap. "When you fall asleep, you'll quickly go through the lighter stages of sleep into your first period of deep sleep. You don't want to wake up in deep sleep because that's when you wake and feel worse than you did before. "Napping for 20 minutes means you will wake up before you go into deep sleep; napping for 90 minutes means you'll complete a sleep cycle.
Once you factor in the time it takes to fall asleep — some people are better at napping than others but, says Stanley, "a healthy adult will fall asleep in between 5 and 12 minutes" — you can set an alarm, allowing a 30- to 40-minute period for a short nap, and up to two hours for a longer one.
A good time to nap is during the body's natural dip in the afternoon, between 2 pm and 4 pm. "You don't really want to be napping much past that because then you are going to be eating into your night-time sleep," Stanley says. The point, he stresses, is to get good night-time sleep, which would ensure you probably don't need to nap at all.
8. What does an afternoon nap indicate for most people
A. Caffeine addiction. B. Psychological stress.
C. Insufficient night sleep. D. Potential physical illness.
9. What is the key to a good nap
A. Duration. B. Surroundings. C. Health. D. Stages.
10. What does the underlined word "that" in the last paragraph refer to
A. A 30- to 40- minute period. B. Between 2 pm and 4 pm.
C. Between 5 and 12 minutes. D. A 20- to 90-minute period.
11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text
A. Why to phase a nap B. When to take a good nap
C. What to learn from a nap D. How to have a successful nap
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何在午睡期间睡得好以及最适合午睡的时间。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。通过文章第二段首句“For most people, napping during the day is mainly a sign that you are not getting enough sleep at night, says Dr. Neil Stanley, a sleep expert.（睡眠专家Neil Stanley博士说：“对大多数人来说，白天午睡主要是晚上睡眠不足的表现。”）”可知对于大多数人来说，午睡是因为夜间睡眠不足。故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。通过文章第三段“So how do you nap well The key thing, says Stanley, is how long your nap lasts.（那你怎么睡得好呢？Stanley说，关键是你的午睡时间有多长。）”可知睡得好的关键因素是午睡的持续时间。故选A项。
【10题详解】
指代猜测题。根据文章最后一段“A good time to nap is during the body's natural dip in the afternoon, between 2 pm and 4 pm.（午睡的好时间是在下午2点到4点之间，身体自然下沉的时候。）”可知下文中画线词“that”指代的是下午2点到4点之间，意为睡眠时间不要超过这个时间段。故选B项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通过文章首句“An afternoon nap is one of the joys of life, although too much napping could signal all is not well.（午睡是生活的乐趣之一，尽管睡太多可能表明情况不妙。）”结合下文可知，本文主要讲述了午睡的重要性以及怎样进行午睡对我们最好。D项“如何成功地午睡”符合文意，适合作为文章标题。故选D项。

Life will probably be very different in 2050. First of all, it seems that TV channels will have vanished by 2050. Instead, people will choose a programme from a “menu” and a computer will send the programme directly to the television. By 2050, music, films, programmes, newspapers and books will come to us in the similar way.
In many places, agriculture is developing quickly and people are growing fruit and vegetables for export. This uses a lot of water. Therefore, there could be serious shortages of water. Some scientist predict that water could be the cause of wars if we don’t act now.
In the future, cars will run on new, clean fuels (燃料) and they will go very fast. Cars will have computers to control the speed and there won’t be any accidents. Today, many cars have computers that tell drivers exactly where they are. By 2050, the computer will control the car and drive it to your destination. Also, by 2050, space planes will fly people from Los Angeles to Tokyo in just two hours.
Some big companies now prefer to use robots that do not ask for pay rises or go on strike, and work 24 hours a day. They are also easy to control. And they never argue with people. They can be easily used in a variety of places — factories, schools, offices, hospitals, shops and homes.
Scientists will have discovered how to control genes (基因). Scientists have already produced clones (克隆) of animals. By 2050, scientists will be able to produce clones of people and decide how they look and how they behave. Scientists will be able to do these things, but should they
12. Which of the following best explains “vanished” underlined in paragraph 1

A. He probably disagrees with the idea of human cloning.
B. He is looking forward to using of cloning technology.
C. The scientists have already discovered how to control genes.
D. The scientists will face many difficulties of controlling genes.
15. What is the best title for the text
A. High-tech Cars B. Life in the Future
C. Is Cloning Really Good D. Are You Ready for the Future
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了可能会与现在大不相同的2050年的生活。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“Instead, people will choose a programme from a “menu” and a computer will send the programme directly to the television. (相反，人们将从“菜单”中选择一个节目，然后计算机将把节目直接发送到电视机上)”可推知，电视频道可能在2050年消失。由此可知，划线词vanished与disappeared“消失”意思一致。故选C。
【13题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“Some big companies now prefer to use robots that do not ask for pay rises or go on strike, and work 24 hours a day. They are also easy to control. And they never argue with people. They can be easily used in a variety of places — factories, schools, offices, hospitals, shops and homes.(一些大公司现在更喜欢使用不要求加薪、不罢工、24小时工作的机器人。它们也很容易控制。他们从不与人争论，他们可以很容易地利用那个于各种各样的地方——工厂，学校，医院，商店和家庭)”可知，第四段说明了机器人的诸多好处。故选D。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Scientists will have discovered how to control genes (基因). Scientists have already produced clones (克隆) of animals. By 2050, scientists will be able to produce clones of people and decide how they look and how they behave. Scientists will be able to do these things, but should they (科学家们将发现如何控制基因。科学家们已经克隆出了动物。到2050年，科学家将能够克隆人类，并决定他们的长相和行为。科学家将能够做这些事情，但他们应该这样做吗？)”可推知，最后的问句说明作者可能不同意克隆人的想法。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容以及第一段“Life will probably be very different in 2050. First of all, it seems that TV channels will have vanished by 2050. Instead, people will choose a programme from a “menu” and a computer will send the programme directly to the television. By 2050, music, films, programmes, newspapers and books will come to us in the similar way.(2050年的生活可能会大不相同。首先。到2050年，电视频道似乎将会消失。相反，人们将从“菜单”中选择一个节目，然后计算机将把节目直接发送到电视机上。到2050年，音乐、电影、节目、报纸和书籍将以类似的方式出现在我们面前)”可知，这篇文章主要讲了可能会与现在大不相同的2050年的生活。由此可知，B. Life in the Future(未来的生活)适合作文章最佳标题。故选B。

Sometimes we get so used to seeing our friends every day that it can come as a surprise to us when they aren't going to the same school as us when we go to college. But if you work hard enough to maintain your high school friendships, then they should be able to thrive (蓬勃发展) without a problem.

Make sure that you have your friends' contact details, such as home address, mobile phone number, social media accounts and email addresses. ____18____ The more regularly you contact your friends, the closer you will be with them
Make sure to see your old friends in person. Although contacting friends online and by phone is a great way to catch up, if you really want a close relationship with them, you'll have to see them in person every now and then too. ____19____
Keeping on top of your work in college is very time-consuming, especially in your final year. This makes it hard to spend quality time with new friends, let alone old friends. ____20____ Your work is very important, but too much work and no play can make you unhealthy and overly-stressed. Also, your friends might get the wrong idea and think that you don't care about them.
A. Don't forget your old friends' birthday.
B. Make sure you're updated on important new details about your friends.
C. Remember why you want to stay friends with your high school friends.

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国女排及其精神。
【详解】1.考查时态。句意：众所周知，中国女排自1981年第一次获得冠军以来，一直是国家的骄傲。分析句子结构可知，“It’s well known that+句子”是固定句型，空处在that引导的主语从句中作谓语，since意为“自从……以来”，通常与现在完成时连用。且that从句中的主语是Chinese women’s volleyball team(中国女排)，是第三人称单数，因此用现在完成时has been。故填has been。
2.考查非谓语动词。句意：但几乎没有人知道她们是多么努力地付出，才让比赛看起来那么轻松。分析句子结构并结合句意可知，空处是非谓语动词作目的状语，应用动词不定式to make。故填to make。
3.考查定语从句。句意：电影《夺冠》于2020年9月25日在中国大陆上映，讲述了中国女排的幕后故事。分析句子结构可知，“____3____hit Chinese mainland on Sept 25, 2020”是非限制性定语从句，先行词是Leap(《夺冠》)，指物，且在定语从句中作主语，应用关系代词which来引导。故填which。
4.考查介词。句意：它展示了几代排球运动员，以及她们成为国际强队的历程。a journey to...是固定搭配，表示“通往……的旅途”。故填to。
5.考查形容词。句意：最吸引人的不仅是她们令人印象深刻的技巧，还有她们在比赛中表现出来的精神力量。此处应用形容词impressive修饰名词skills(技巧)，作定语，意为“令人印象深刻的”。故填impressive。
6.考查非谓语动词。句意：为了赢得比赛，中国女排队员刻苦训练，过着每天都不停训练的单调生活。分析句子结构可知，空处是非谓语动词作状语，动词live的逻辑主语是主句主语China’s ladies(中国女排队员)，且二者之间构成逻辑上的主动关系，因此用现在分词living。故填living。
7.考查副词。句意：然而，她们拒绝停止工作，即使在体育场的灯熄灭之后。分析前后句子的逻辑关系可知，此处表示转折关系，逗号与主句分开，所以应用副词however，意为“然而”，单词位于句首，首字母大写。故填However。
8.考查不定冠词。句意：通往冠军的道路并非一帆风顺。句中one指的是“one road”，且此处泛指“一条道路”，所以应用不定冠词，且smooth的发音以辅音音素开头，应用a。故填a。
9.考查强调句。句意：正是她们永不放弃的精神和坚定的决心使她们走过了40年的风风雨雨。分析句子可知，“their spirits of never giving up and the strong determination”为句子的主语，被It is…that强调句型强调。故填that。
10.考查副词。句意：它逐渐成为中国人心中的一个传说。空处应用副词gradually修饰谓语，意为“逐渐地”。故填gradually。
B：按要求写出下列单词，使句子完整。
46. A first essential of good news writing is ________ (accurate).(所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】accuracy
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意：写好新闻首要要素是准确。根据句意及所给句子可知，此处用名词accuracy“准确性”，作表语，不可数名词。故填accuracy。
47. You will ________ (automatic) get free dental treatment if you are under 18. （所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】automatically
【解析】
【详解】考查副词。句意：如果你未满18岁，你将自动得到免费的牙科治疗。分析句子结构可知，空格处用副词修饰动词短语 get free。故填automatically。
48. The number of deaths ________ (arise) from road accidents has raised people’s concern. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】arising
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：交通事故造成的死亡人数引起了人们的关注。deaths与arise from之间是逻辑主谓关系，应用现在分词，作定语。故填arising。
49. I sincerely beg your pardon, if I have hurt or offended you. I did it quite________ (intention). (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】unintentionally
【解析】
【详解】考查副词。句意：如果我伤害或冒犯了你，我真诚地请求你的原谅。我是无意中做的。此处修饰动词did，应用副词，由“I sincerely beg your pardon, if I have hurt or offended you.”可知，此处表示“无意中做的”，应用副词unintentionally“无意之中”，作状语。故填unintentionally。
50. ________ (commit) to scientific research, the scientist remained single all his life. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】Committed
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：致力于科学研究，这位科学家一生独身。句子谓语为remained，故设空处为非谓语动词，commit与其逻辑主语The scientists之间为动宾关系，应用过去分词，短语committed to意为“决心从事……，致力于……”，过去分词短语作状语，故填committed。
51. Only a ________ (minor)of children are fond of natural scenery while most of them like amusement parks. （所给词的适当形式填空）
【答案】minority
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意：只有少数孩子喜欢自然风光，而大多数孩子喜欢游乐园。a minority of“少数”为固定短语，a后接单数名词minority。故填minority。
52. Within minutes, the kitchen had been________ (恢复) to its former tidiness.(根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】restored
【解析】
【详解】考查动词时态语态。句意：数分钟之内，厨房已经恢复到以前的整洁。根据句意和汉语提示，应填restore“恢复”作谓语，与主语kitchen是被动关系，空前有had been，故用过去完成时的被动语态，故填restored。
53. Most of these sports at the Youth Olympic Games are________ (完全相同的) to those at the Olympics, but other sports, such as wushu, have been added too. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】identical
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。句意：青奥会上的大多数运动项目与奥运会上的项目完全相同，但也增加了其他项目，诸如武术。根据汉语提示“完全相同的”和介词to可知，此处应用形容词identical，作表语，构成固定短语be identical to，表示“与……完全相同”。故填identical。
54. Having made a lot of preparations, we still ran into strong ________ (抵制) to our plan. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】resistance
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意：尽管做了许多准备，我们的计划还是遇到了强烈的阻力。strong是形容词，修饰名词，“抵制”的名词是resistance，是不可数名词，故填resistance。
55. As a child, Tom was an outsider, never ________ (参加) in the games other children played. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】participating
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：作为一个孩子，汤姆是一个局外人，从不参加其他孩子玩的游戏。由空后的in可知，“参加”是participate，句中谓语是was，空格处用非谓语动词，Tom和participate之间是主谓关系，因此空格处用现在分词表主动作状语，故填participating。

Holly stayed in the tree house for the night, thinking hard what she could do to change her parents’ minds.
Holly had a plan when her parents came the next morning. “You don’t have to cut down the tree, Dad.

Chinese volleyball superstar Zhu Ting has inspired a new English word. "Stay awesome and ZHUperb!" wrote a blogger at a US-based volleyball website. The word combines "Zhu" and "superb (卓越的)", to describe the 27-year-old player.
Zhu's excellent scoring performances put her among the Top 10 Global Outstanding Athletes for this year's Heracles Prize of the Big Ben Award. As the captain, Zhu "created the new golden age of women's volleyball in China", the award said. Zhu is considered a national hero by many in China, with good reason. Before this year's World Cup victory, she helped the national volleyball team win the 2015 FIVB World Cup, the 2015 Asian Women's Volleyball Championship, and the 2016 Rio Olympic Games.
Although she's a superstar now, it hasn't been easy for Zhu to get to where she is. Born to a farming family in Henan province, Zhu earned a chance to attend a local sports school at age 13. She became well known to the public by helping China's U20 team win the 2013 FIVB U20 World Championship. Shortly after, Zhu joined the national team and began playing under legendary coach Lang Ping.
At first, the 1. 98-meter-tall Zhu found it difficult to move quickly and stay balanced. But Lang Ping took advantage of her height and trained her to jump high and smash balls. Her work paid off. Zhu is now an outstanding player. "Hard work and talent are equally important. I'll move forward step by step," she told People's Daily.
4. Why was "ZHUperb" created
A. To create a new game. B. To introduce a volleyball website.
C. To describe the volleyball superstar. D. To celebrate her winning of World Cup.
5. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us
A. Zhu Ting's training. B. Zhu Ting's personal qualities.
C. Zhu Ting's achievements. D. Zhu Ting's future plan.
6 When did Zhu Ting become famous to the publics
A. In 2000. B. In 2013. C. In 2015. D. In 2016.
7. What was the purpose of Lang Ping's plan for training Zhu Ting
A. To build up her confidence.
B. To make use of her advantages.
C. To train her to be the captain of the team.
D. To instruct her to move forward step by step.
C
An afternoon nap(午睡)is one of the joys of life, although too much napping could signal all is not well. In some cultures, people will have a daily nap — this is fine. The warning comes when people start sleeping during the daytime, when they did not before. There is certainly a good reason to believe that daytime sleepiness — as in the Alzheimer's study — can be a marker of an underlying condition.
For most people, napping during the day is mainly a sign that you are not getting enough sleep at night, says Dr. Neil Stanley, a sleep expert. "If you feel sleepy during the day, you should think about taking a nap. That is what the body needs — it doesn't need to be kept awake with caffeine, it needs sleep. "The feeling to notice is "sleepiness", he says, not "tiredness", which could be more psychological and linked to stress.
So how do you nap well The key thing, says Stanley, is how long your nap lasts. Choose either a 20-or 90-minute nap. "When you fall asleep, you'll quickly go through the lighter stages of sleep into your first period of deep sleep. You don't want to wake up in deep sleep because that's when you wake and feel worse than you did before. "Napping for 20 minutes means you will wake up before you go into deep sleep; napping for 90 minutes means you'll complete a sleep cycle.
Once you factor in the time it takes to fall asleep — some people are better at napping than others but, says Stanley, "a healthy adult will fall asleep in between 5 and 12 minutes" — you can set an alarm, allowing a 30- to 40-minute period for a short nap, and up to two hours for a longer one.
A good time to nap is during the body's natural dip in the afternoon, between 2 pm and 4 pm. "You don't really want to be napping much past that because then you are going to be eating into your night-time sleep," Stanley says. The point, he stresses, is to get good night-time sleep, which would ensure you probably don't need to nap at all.

Life will probably be very different in 2050. First of all, it seems that TV channels will have vanished by 2050. Instead, people will choose a programme from a “menu” and a computer will send the programme directly to the television. By 2050, music, films, programmes, newspapers and books will come to us in the similar way.
In many places, agriculture is developing quickly and people are growing fruit and vegetables for export. This uses a lot of water. Therefore, there could be serious shortages of water. Some scientist predict that water could be the cause of wars if we don’t act now.
In the future, cars will run on new, clean fuels (燃料) and they will go very fast. Cars will have computers to control the speed and there won’t be any accidents. Today, many cars have computers that tell drivers exactly where they are. By 2050, the computer will control the car and drive it to your destination. Also, by 2050, space planes will fly people from Los Angeles to Tokyo in just two hours.
Some big companies now prefer to use robots that do not ask for pay rises or go on strike, and work 24 hours a day. They are also easy to control. And they never argue with people. They can be easily used in a variety of places — factories, schools, offices, hospitals, shops and homes.
Scientists will have discovered how to control genes (基因). Scientists have already produced clones (克隆) of animals. By 2050, scientists will be able to produce clones of people and decide how they look and how they behave. Scientists will be able to do these things, but should they
12. Which of the following best explains “vanished” underlined in paragraph 1

Sometimes we get so used to seeing our friends every day that it can come as a surprise to us when they aren't going to the same school as us when we go to college. But if you work hard enough to maintain your high school friendships, then they should be able to thrive (蓬勃发展) without a problem.
