Twenty years ago, the idea of sharing our lives so openly with the world was unheard of. However, for young people today it is considered completely normal to share pictures of their lives and interact online every day. Fans of social media (媒体) point out that the world has never been so connected as it has allowed people to make friends, learn about the world and celebrate life.
However, many people have concerns about the effects of this new way of living, particularly around the amount and type of information that is shared so openly. Recently researchers have found that too much time on social media may have some negative(消极的) effects. They measured people’s attitudes and feelings before and after watching social media sites. They found that the more time people spent on social media, the more unhappy they became.
There are a number of reasons for this. When watching social media, people often see photographs and stories showing beautiful holidays, fun parties and modern clothes. People seldom post negative stories or bad pictures, so it can be misleading. For those looking at these pictures and comparing them to their own lives, they can end up feeling upset. They might think their lives are worse in comparison. Even for those people who post positive stories and pictures, they too can feel stressed and worried. The number of “likes” and comments on their posts can make them anxious about their popularity. Of course, there is also the problem of cyberbullying where people are bullied online when others make negative or cruel comments about them.
The reality is that social media is part of modern life and it is not going to go away. This research shows us that it is important to find a balance between our online and offline lives. We don’t have to stay away from the Internet to live a happy life, but we should realize that the pictures we see and the stories we read are only part of a bigger picture. If we can do that, we can protect ourselves and enjoy our lives.
8. What effect does social media have according to the recent research
A. It makes people share their lives openly.
B. It enables people to make more friends on the Internet.’
C. It helps people to have a better knowledge of the world.
D. It increases unhappiness for people who use it too much.
9. Why are people worried when they post positive stories and pictures
A. They fear others mislead their posts.
B. They fear others have happier lives.
C. They fear others may cyberbully them.
D. They fear others have more interesting stories.
10. How is Paragraph 3 organized
A. By giving causes. B. By listing numbers.
C. By making comparisons. D. By describing process.
11. What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage
A. To persuade people to keep off the Internet.
B. To describe the threats caused by social media.
C. To advise us to balance online and offline lives.
D. To introduce the convenience created by social media.

Western monarch butterflies(帝王蝶) spend their winters on the central California coast. A few months later, they produce young in the Central Valley and as far north and east as Idaho. But where they go in between remains an open question to biologists. Therefore, a group of biologists call on anyone who spots a monarch north of Santa Barbara this spring to get a quick shot and email them the photo with a date and a location.
“Something’s going on in early spring,” said Cheryl Schultz, a professor at Washington State University Vancouver. Winter survival isn’t the problem in the short term, but they don’t know whether the monarchs are not making it to producing places, not finding plants to feed themselves along the way, she said.
The Western monarch population stood in the millions in the 1980s. In 2017, an annual count found 200,000 butterflies. In 2018, the number fell to about 30,000 — a figure that held steady last year. The monarchs’ decline is part of a larger trend among dozens of butterfly species in the West. What exactly caused the decline Biologists attach it to a variety of reasons. Many chemicals are sprayed on the milkweed monarchs will feed on. Climate change also plays a role in challenges facing monarchs. Yet, they’re not nearly as threatening as those leading to loss of their living room. Farms used to have rough borders that were grounds for the plants monarchs love and live in. However, newly applied practices pushed crops to the edge of fields.
“Butterflies often have good years and bad. We do think there’s potential to turn the situation around,” Dr. Schultz said. And she said she saw two reasons for that. First, the population decline seen in 2017-2018 wasn’t repeated last year. And second, she’s seen butterfly populations recover before.
12. Why do the biologists need the public’s help
A. To confirm monarchs’ producing places.
B To find how monarchs survive the winter.
C. To address the unknown about monarchs.
D. To know the distance that monarchs cover.
13. Which of the following harms monarchs most
A. New farming practices. B. Lack of healthy food.
C. Wide use of chemicals. D. Severe climate change.
14. What is Dr. Schultz’s attitude towards monarchs’ future
A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Worried. D. Cautious.
15. What’s the best title for the text
A. What Is Happening to the Monarchs B. Why the Monarchs Are Flying Away
C. Where All the Monarchs Have Gone D. How the Monarchs Adapt to Nature

Mr. Smith, my 10-grade English teacher, was one of the teachers who I would never forget and the story between Mr. Smith and me was the most amazing one I wanted to share.
When I was young at school, I loved talking, which was not always appreciated by Mr. Smith. Mr. Smith was a teacher whom no one liked because he was too strict. He stood about 5.5 feet, was very thin and wore his hair pulled back in a way that gave him a horsey (像马的) look. Whenever he got upset, he would lower his head and look at you over the top of his glasses.
One day in his class I was busy talking. I didn’t realize he had stopped teaching, staring straight at me. “Tom, I would like to see you after school.”
Later, Mr. Smith explained in a low, but very firm voice that showed he expected me to listen when he was talking. For punishment he told me to write a1000-word essay (文章) on education and its effect on the society. He wanted it in by the following Wednesday.
Well, I met my deadline (最后期限). I was confident. It was a good paper. And I expected a sign of praise from him. The next day in class, however, he was looking at me over his glasses. He called me forward and returned my paper. “Go back and rewrite,” he said. “Remember, each paragraph is supported to begin with a topic sentence.” When he gave my paper back a second time, he corrected the grammar. The third time, the spelling. The fourth time, it was punctuation. The fifth, it wasn’t neat (整洁的) enough. I was sick!
The sixth time, I rewrote the whole paper slowly in ink, leaving enough space. When he saw the paper, he removed his glasses, and accepted it with a smile. After that, I put the whole thing out of my mind.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150 左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
One morning after three weeks, Mr. Smith came into the class happily
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I sat in my own seat, excited and grateful

Twenty years ago, the idea of sharing our lives so openly with the world was unheard of. However, for young people today it is considered completely normal to share pictures of their lives and interact online every day. Fans of social media (媒体) point out that the world has never been so connected as it has allowed people to make friends, learn about the world and celebrate life.
However, many people have concerns about the effects of this new way of living, particularly around the amount and type of information that is shared so openly. Recently researchers have found that too much time on social media may have some negative(消极的) effects. They measured people’s attitudes and feelings before and after watching social media sites. They found that the more time people spent on social media, the more unhappy they became.
There are a number of reasons for this. When watching social media, people often see photographs and stories showing beautiful holidays, fun parties and modern clothes. People seldom post negative stories or bad pictures, so it can be misleading. For those looking at these pictures and comparing them to their own lives, they can end up feeling upset. They might think their lives are worse in comparison. Even for those people who post positive stories and pictures, they too can feel stressed and worried. The number of “likes” and comments on their posts can make them anxious about their popularity. Of course, there is also the problem of cyberbullying where people are bullied online when others make negative or cruel comments about them.
The reality is that social media is part of modern life and it is not going to go away. This research shows us that it is important to find a balance between our online and offline lives. We don’t have to stay away from the Internet to live a happy life, but we should realize that the pictures we see and the stories we read are only part of a bigger picture. If we can do that, we can protect ourselves and enjoy our lives.
8. What effect does social media have according to the recent research
A. It makes people share their lives openly.
B. It enables people to make more friends on the Internet.’
C. It helps people to have a better knowledge of the world.
D. It increases unhappiness for people who use it too much.
9. Why are people worried when they post positive stories and pictures
A. They fear others mislead their posts.
B. They fear others have happier lives.
C. They fear others may cyberbully them.
D. They fear others have more interesting stories.
10. How is Paragraph 3 organized
A. By giving causes. B. By listing numbers.
C. By making comparisons. D. By describing process.
11. What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage
A. To persuade people to keep off the Internet.
B. To describe the threats caused by social media.
C. To advise us to balance online and offline lives.
D To introduce the convenience created by social media.

Western monarch butterflies(帝王蝶) spend their winters on the central California coast. A few months later, they produce young in the Central Valley and as far north and east as Idaho. But where they go in between remains an open question to biologists. Therefore, a group of biologists call on anyone who spots a monarch north of Santa Barbara this spring to get a quick shot and email them the photo with a date and a location.
“Something’s going on in early spring,” said Cheryl Schultz, a professor at Washington State University Vancouver. Winter survival isn’t the problem in the short term, but they don’t know whether the monarchs are not making it to producing places, not finding plants to feed themselves along the way, she said.
The Western monarch population stood in the millions in the 1980s. In 2017, an annual count found 200,000 butterflies. In 2018, the number fell to about 30,000 — a figure that held steady last year. The monarchs’ decline is part of a larger trend among dozens of butterfly species in the West. What exactly caused the decline Biologists attach it to a variety of reasons. Many chemicals are sprayed on the milkweed monarchs will feed on. Climate change also plays a role in challenges facing monarchs. Yet, they’re not nearly as threatening as those leading to loss of their living room. Farms used to have rough borders that were grounds for the plants monarchs love and live in. However, newly applied practices pushed crops to the edge of fields.
“Butterflies often have good years and bad. We do think there’s potential to turn the situation around,” Dr. Schultz said. And she said she saw two reasons for that. First, the population decline seen in 2017-2018 wasn’t repeated last year. And second, she’s seen butterfly populations recover before.
12. Why do the biologists need the public’s help
A. To confirm monarchs’ producing places.
B. To find how monarchs survive the winter.
C. To address the unknown about monarchs.
D. To know the distance that monarchs cover.
13. Which of the following harms monarchs most
A. New farming practices. B. Lack of healthy food.
C. Wide use of chemicals. D. Severe climate change.
14. What is Dr. Schultz’s attitude towards monarchs’ future
A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Worried. D. Cautious.
15. What’s the best title for the text
A. What Is Happening to the Monarchs B. Why the Monarchs Are Flying Away
C. Where All the Monarchs Have Gone D. How the Monarchs Adapt to Nature
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了西部帝王蝶的数量逐渐下降的现状以及对背后原因的分析与研究。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段三、四句“But where they go in between remains an open question to biologists. Therefore, a group of biologists call on anyone who spots a monarch north of Santa Barbara this spring to get a quick shot and email them the photo with a date and a location.(但是它们在中间的位置对生物学家来说仍然是一个悬而未决的问题。因此,一群生物学家呼吁,今年春天,任何在圣巴巴拉北部看到帝王蝶的人,都可以快速拍一张照片,然后用电子邮件发给他们照片上的日期和地点。)”可知,生物学家呼吁大众帮忙的原因是想要解决关于帝王蝶的未知问题。故选C项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段最后三句“Yet, they’re not nearly as threatening as those leading to loss of their living room. Farms used to have rough borders that were grounds for the plants monarchs love and live in. However, newly applied practices pushed crops to the edge of fields.(然而,它们远没有那些导致帝王蝶失去生存空间的威胁大。农场曾经有粗糙的边界,是帝王蝶喜爱和居住的植物的园地。然而,新应用的做法将作物推向了田地的边缘。)”可知,新农业活动是对帝王蝶伤害最大的因素。故选A项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段的第一句““Butterflies often have good years and bad. We do think there’s potential to turn the situation around,” Dr. Schultz said.(“蝴蝶经常有好年景和坏年景。我们确实认为有可能扭转这种局面,”舒尔茨博士说。)”可知,舒尔茨博士对帝王蝶的未来持积极的态度。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第三段一、二、三句“The Western monarch population stood in the millions in the 1980s. In 2017, an annual count found 200,000 butterflies. In 2018, the number fell to about 30,000 — a figure that held steady last year.(20世纪80年代,西方帝王蝶的数量达到数百万。2017年,每年的统计发现了20万只蝴蝶。2018年,这一数字下降到约3万人,而去年这一数字保持稳定。)”和五、六句“What exactly caused the decline Biologists attach it to a variety of reasons.(究竟是什么导致了这种下降 生物学家给出了各种各样的原因。)”结合全文可知,本文主要围绕帝王蝶身上究竟发生了什么来展开,所以A选项“What Is Happening to the Monarchs(帝王蝶发生了什么)”作为标题最为合适。故选A项。

Is there any way to settle what stands between us ”(从打电话或写个便条开始,传达一个信息:“我们的友谊对我来说很宝贵,我想念你。有什么办法能解决我们之间的问题吗?”)”可知,本段主要建议首先和朋友取得联系,因此C项“Make meaningful contact.(进行有意义的联系)”符合语境,契合后文内容。故选C。

Take ownership, and ask for forgiveness.(突出你最喜欢他们的地方。接下来,你需要承认自己的错误。承担责任,请求原谅)”介绍重建尊重的步骤,因此F项“If hurt, think about your friend’s most admirable qualities.(如果受到伤害,想想你朋友最值得钦佩的品质)”符合语境,指出步骤中的第一步,引出后文,其中的most admirable qualities和后文的those you like best about them呼应。故选F。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Mr. Smith, my 10-grade English teacher, was one of the teachers who I would never forget and the story between Mr. Smith and me was the most amazing one I wanted to share.
When I was young at school, I loved talking, which was not always appreciated by Mr. Smith. Mr. Smith was a teacher whom no one liked because he was too strict. He stood about 5.5 feet, was very thin and wore his hair pulled back in a way that gave him a horsey (像马的) look. Whenever he got upset, he would lower his head and look at you over the top of his glasses.
One day in his class I was busy talking. I didn’t realize he had stopped teaching, staring straight at me. “Tom, I would like to see you after school.”
Later, Mr. Smith explained in a low, but very firm voice that showed he expected me to listen when he was talking. For punishment he told me to write a1000-word essay (文章) on education and its effect on the society. He wanted it in by the following Wednesday.
Well, I met my deadline (最后期限). I was confident. It was a good paper. And I expected a sign of praise from him. The next day in class, however, he was looking at me over his glasses. He called me forward and returned my paper. “Go back and rewrite,” he said. “Remember, each paragraph is supported to begin with a topic sentence.” When he gave my paper back a second time, he corrected the grammar. The third time, the spelling. The fourth time, it was punctuation. The fifth, it wasn’t neat (整洁的) enough. I was sick!
The sixth time, I rewrote the whole paper slowly in ink, leaving enough space. When he saw the paper, he removed his glasses, and accepted it with a smile. After that, I put the whole thing out of my mind.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150 左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
One morning after three weeks, Mr. Smith came into the class happily

【答案】范文
One morning after three weeks, Mr. Smith came into the class happily. He said, “Class, do you still remember the essay contest held in our school Now the result has come out. I am glad to tell you that Tom has won first prize with the title ‘Education and Its Effect on the Society’.” Then cheers of praise rocked the whole classroom. After class, many classmates asked me how I made it. I told them that it was not because of my good writing skills but it was all because of the six-time rewriting required by Mr. Smith.
I sat in my own seat, excited and grateful. It was the first time I had ever won a prize. Years later, I told many people that story, and my comments, including my unfriendly description of Mr. Smith’s appearance. Unexpectedly, Mr. Smith wrote to me, and said his look wasn’t important. What was important was the lesson I had learned from him. When I wrote and rewrote that essay, I began to learn how to behave well. I was grateful for the lesson he had taught me.
