January is the month recognized as the time to diet. This year a health expert told me to get serious. I have to take away half of every meal and put a carrot in its place. Every meal She was serious. “We’re dealing with sick fat. There’s no hip and all I see is a piece of big bread on your dog’s legs.”
However it wasn’t my mistake. When we go out, people just keep feeding Eric snacks because he looks so cute. He looks at me when I’m eating my fish so I give him some.
He wasn’t always this way. When he came to us after a short but successful time on the show dog circuit, he was, as you would expect a dog like him to be, well within his healthy weight. But then he came to us and got comfortable knowing this was his “forever home”. His appearance no longer mattered.
He ate everything he could get. Whole blocks of cheese and fresh banana cakes before we pushed everything out of his tongue’s reach. We placed schoolbags high up on the wall. Sometimes, Eric managed to open the schoolbags and carry the lunchboxes in his mouth out through the dog door and into the garden where he happily ate my lovingly prepared offerings.
It’s time for Eric to clean up his act. He’s not to be given pigs’ ears or fish from my dish anymore. I’ve asked my husband to bring a “Nil Orally” sign home from the hospital where he works. I’m going to hang it around Eric’s neck to show everybody that he’s on a diet.
4. What did the health expert say about Eric
A. He was out of shape. B. He had too much bread.
C. He had short and strong legs. D. He needed a couple of pieces of bread.
5. What was Eric like before coming to the author’s home
A. Inactive. B. Heavy. C. Fit. D. Carefree.
6. What did Eric do with the schoolbags
A. He took them off the kitchen table. B. He played with them in the garden.
C. He hid some food inside them. D. He opened them on his own.
7. What does “Nil Orally” in the last paragraph probably mean
A. Clean up. B. Help me.
C. Everything is fine. D. Nothing by mouth.
C
For many years scientists and animal lovers have worked to make the world safer for endangered species. Now, there is something that needs protection from these protected animals — a famous French cheese called Roquefort, known as the “King of Cheeses”.
Roquefort is made from sheep's milk in the southern part of the French mountains. Farmers have been making Roquefort for thousands of years, and they follow many rules when making it, to be sure that it is done in the traditional way. One of the rules is that they must let their sheep live freely in the mountains.
However, following these rules has become very dangerous. Wolves have moved into the area, and they have killed 62 sheep. The wolves are an endangered species, and have not been seen in the French mountains since the 1920s. No one is allowed to kill the wolves, but the farmers are now saying it is impossible for their sheep to live in the same mountains as the wolves. Farmers have dogs to protect the sheep and have also built electric fences, but they say they will not have enough money to continue making Roquefort once they have spent it all on keeping their sheep safe. Many people have said that wolves that attack sheep should be killed, since they have become a threat to the farmers' jobs. Others think that anyone who wants the wolves killed is trying to make them become extinct.
Maybe it would not be a problem if Roquefort became extinct instead, and the wolves were able to live in the mountains. But then the farmers would not have jobs. Will the people of Southern France be able to find a way that protects both the wolves and the King of Cheeses Let's wait and see.
8. What can we learn about Roquefort
A. It is produced in many places in France.
B. It has been made in modern ways.
C. It has a long history.
D. It is easy to make.
9. What problem do the sheep face
A. They have been endangered since the 1920s.
B. They are in danger of being attacked.
C. They are too expensive to feed.
D. They are killed by people.
10. What may happen if farmers fight with the wolves
A. They can't afford to make the cheese.
B. They have no time to make the cheese.
C. They have no idea how to sell the cheese.
D. They can't produce the cheese with high quality.
11. What do people think of the wolves
A. They agree with killing the wolves.
B. They support leaving the wolves as they are.
C. They are divided on the ways of protecting the wolves.
D. They hold different ideas about how to deal with the wolves.

Two teenagers from Montgomery Blair High School, Dhruv Pai, 16, and Matt Casertano, 15, were both buying groceries(食品杂货)for their grandparents in early March, as coronavirus(冠状病毒)cases started to appear in the Washington area. That’s when Dhruv realized the greater need — and a possible way to solve the problem.
The two created Teens Helping Seniors, which connects older people with volunteers who will deliver(递送)groceries right to their doorstep for free. They developed the idea in March just before schools closed because of the outbreak, which suddenly gave them and their classmates a lot more time to help out. Matt said they planned for Teens Helping Seniors to be a network for classmates at their high school at first, but within a week they started to develop because of the high demand(需求). By the end of the second week, Matt and Dhruv already had their first chapter outside Montgomery County, in Albany, N. Y. The group now has more than ten chapters in the United States and one forming abroad in Montreal.
Regula Guess, who lives in Potomac, heard about Teens Helping Seniors from a neighbor, when the area started to shut down in mid-March. Guess, 65, said her husband is at risk because of his age, and she was afraid of going to the store.
Teens Helping Seniors connected Guess with Jacob Kaplan-Davis, a junior at Wootton High School. Guess said Jacob would call her from the store if he had questions. “I was just so thankful for what these young people were doing,” she said. “It’s just amazing how this brings out the good in people.”
Jacob, 16, said he spends six to eight hours a week buying groceries. Usually, he makes two deliveries a week.
“The first time I went, it took me forever to find everything. But soon I started to learn the layout(布局)and got faster,” said Jacob, who seldom went grocery shopping before volunteering for Teens Helping Seniors. “It’s given me a greater understanding of my mom when she goes grocery shopping,” he said.
12. What made Dhruv have the idea of setting up Teens Helping Seniors
A. The experience of buying groceries for his grandparents.
B. The fact that the old are unable to go to the stores.
C The encouragement from the old he had helped.
D. The greatly increasing cases of coronavirus.
13. What do we know about Teens Helping Seniors
A. It has been a network only at a high school. B. It was set up after schools closed.
C. It has been largely developed. D. It was created by Dhruv alone.
14. What do Guess’ words mean
A. She thought highly of the teen volunteers.
B. She looked forward to joining the organization.
C. She encouraged people to follow the teens’ lead.
D. She thought the teens should have worked harder.
15. What did Jacob learn from his work for Teens Helping Seniors
A. He knew how to make choices. B. He understood his mom better.
C. He became organized and brave. D. He started to try to talk to strangers.

January is the month recognized as the time to diet. This year a health expert told me to get serious. I have to take away half of every meal and put a carrot in its place. Every meal She was serious. “We’re dealing with sick fat. There’s no hip and all I see is a piece of big bread on your dog’s legs.”
However, it wasn’t my mistake. When we go out, people just keep feeding Eric snacks because he looks so cute. He looks at me when I’m eating my fish so I give him some.
He wasn’t always this way. When he came to us after a short but successful time on the show dog circuit, he was, as you would expect a dog like him to be, well within his healthy weight. But then he came to us and got comfortable knowing this was his “forever home”. His appearance no longer mattered.
He ate everything he could get. Whole blocks of cheese and fresh banana cakes before we pushed everything out of his tongue’s reach. We placed schoolbags high up on the wall. Sometimes, Eric managed to open the schoolbags and carry the lunchboxes in his mouth out through the dog door and into the garden where he happily ate my lovingly prepared offerings.
It’s time for Eric to clean up his act. He’s not to be given pigs’ ears or fish from my dish anymore. I’ve asked my husband to bring a “Nil Orally” sign home from the hospital where he works. I’m going to hang it around Eric’s neck to show everybody that he’s on a diet.
4. What did the health expert say about Eric
A. He was out of shape. B. He had too much bread.
C. He had short and strong legs. D. He needed a couple of pieces of bread.
5. What was Eric like before coming to the author’s home
A. Inactive. B. Heavy. C. Fit. D. Carefree.
6. What did Eric do with the schoolbags
A. He took them off the kitchen table. B. He played with them in the garden.
C. He hid some food inside them. D. He opened them on his own.
7. What does “Nil Orally” in the last paragraph probably mean
A. Clean up. B. Help me.
C. Everything is fine. D. Nothing by mouth.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了作者的狗Eric身材走形，专家要求Eric节食。

细节理解题。根据第一段“We’re dealing with sick fat. There’s no hip and all I see is a piece of big bread on your dog’s legs.(我们面对的是病态的脂肪。没有臀部，我只看到狗的腿像一块大面包)”可知，健康专家说Eric身材走样了。故选A。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“When he came to us after a short but successful time on the show dog circuit, he was, as you would expect a dog like him to be, well within his healthy weight.(当他在短暂但成功的狗狗巡回表演后来到我们这里时，他就像你所期望的那样，在他健康的体重范围内)”可知，Eric在来作者家之前很健康。故选C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Sometimes, Eric managed to open the schoolbags and carry the lunchboxes in his mouth out through the dog door and into the garden where he happily ate my lovingly prepared offerings.(有时，Eric设法打开书包，叼着午餐盒穿过狗门，进入花园，在那里他愉快地吃着我精心准备的食物)”可知，Eric自己打开了书包。故选D。
【7题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段“I’m going to hang it around Eric’s neck to show everybody that he’s on a diet.(我要把它挂在埃里克的脖子上，让大家知道他在节食)”结合上文提到Eric身材走形，要节食。由此推知，Nil Orally意思是“禁食”。故选D。

For many years, scientists and animal lovers have worked to make the world safer for endangered species. Now, there is something that needs protection from these protected animals — a famous French cheese called Roquefort, known as the “King of Cheeses”.
Roquefort is made from sheep's milk in the southern part of the French mountains. Farmers have been making Roquefort for thousands of years, and they follow many rules when making it, to be sure that it is done in the traditional way. One of the rules is that they must let their sheep live freely in the mountains.
However, following these rules has become very dangerous. Wolves have moved into the area, and they have killed 62 sheep. The wolves are an endangered species, and have not been seen in the French mountains since the 1920s. No one is allowed to kill the wolves, but the farmers are now saying it is impossible for their sheep to live in the same mountains as the wolves. Farmers have dogs to protect the sheep and have also built electric fences, but they say they will not have enough money to continue making Roquefort once they have spent it all on keeping their sheep safe. Many people have said that wolves that attack sheep should be killed, since they have become a threat to the farmers' jobs. Others think that anyone who wants the wolves killed is trying to make them become extinct.
Maybe it would not be a problem if Roquefort became extinct instead, and the wolves were able to live in the mountains. But then the farmers would not have jobs. Will the people of Southern France be able to find a way that protects both the wolves and the King of Cheeses Let's wait and see.
8. What can we learn about Roquefort
A. It is produced in many places in France.
B. It has been made in modern ways.
C. It has a long history.
D. It is easy to make.
9. What problem do the sheep face
A. They have been endangered since the 1920s.
B. They are in danger of being attacked.
C. They are too expensive to feed.
D. They are killed by people.
10. What may happen if farmers fight with the wolves
A They can't afford to make the cheese.
B. They have no time to make the cheese.
C. They have no idea how to sell the cheese.
D. They can't produce the cheese with high quality.
11. What do people think of the wolves
A. They agree with killing the wolves.
B. They support leaving the wolves as they are.
C. They are divided on the ways of protecting the wolves.
D. They hold different ideas about how to deal with the wolves.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D

【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了一种被称为“奶酪之王”的著名法国奶酪面临威胁，需要保护，文章解释了其原因。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段中的“Farmers have been making Roquefort for thousands of years, and they follow many rules when making it, to be sure that it is done in the traditional way.”（农民们已经做了几千年的Roquefort，他们在制作的时候遵循许多规则，以确保它是以传统的方式进行的。）可知人们做了几千年的Roquefort，说明Roquefort有着悠久的历史。故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。由第二段中的“One of the rules is that they must let their sheep live freely in the mountains.”（其中一条规定是，他们必须让他们的羊在山里自由地生活。）和第三段中的“However, following these rules has become very dangerous. Wolves have moved into the area, and they have killed 62 sheep.”（然而，遵循这些规则已经变得非常危险。狼已经进入这个地区，它们杀死了62只羊。）可知羊要在山里自由地生活，然而狼进入了山区，杀死了羊，说明羊有被狼袭击的危险。故选B项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。由第三段中的“Farmers have dogs to protect the sheep and have also built electric fences, but they say they will not have enough money to continue making Roquefort once they have spent it all on keeping their sheep safe.”（农民们养了狗来保护羊，还建了电围栏，但他们说，一旦他们把所有的钱都花在保护羊的安全上，他们就没有足够的钱继续生产Roquefort。）可知如果农民与狼斗争来保护羊的安全，他们就没钱做Roquefort，即他们做不起奶酪。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。由第三段中的“Many people have said that wolves that attack sheep should be killed, since they have become a threat to the farmers' jobs.”（许多人说，攻击绵羊的狼应该被杀死，因为它们已经成为农民工作的威胁。）和第四段中的“Will the people of Southern France be able to find a way that protects both the wolves and the King of Cheeses ”（法国南部的人民能找到一种既能保护狼又能保护奶酪之王的方法吗？）可知一些人为了保护奶酪认为狼应该被杀死，而法国南部的人民却想找到既能保护狼又能保护奶酪之王的方法，说明人们对如何对付狼有不同的想法，一种杀狼，一种保护狼。故选D项。

Two teenagers from Montgomery Blair High School, Dhruv Pai, 16, and Matt Casertano, 15, were both buying groceries(食品杂货)for their grandparents in early March, as coronavirus(冠状病毒)cases started to appear in the Washington area. That’s when Dhruv realized the greater need — and a possible way to solve the problem.
The two created Teens Helping Seniors, which connects older people with volunteers who will deliver(递送)groceries right to their doorstep for free. They developed the idea in March just before schools closed because of the outbreak, which suddenly gave them and their classmates a lot more time to help out. Matt said they planned for Teens Helping Seniors to be a network for classmates at their high school at first, but within a week they started to develop because of the high demand(需求). By the end of the second week, Matt and Dhruv already had their first chapter outside Montgomery County, in Albany, N. Y. The group now has more than ten chapters in the United States and one forming abroad in Montreal.
Regula Guess, who lives in Potomac, heard about Teens Helping Seniors from a neighbor, when the area started to shut down in mid-March. Guess, 65, said her husband is at risk because of his age, and she was afraid of going to the store.
Teens Helping Seniors connected Guess with Jacob Kaplan-Davis, a junior at Wootton High School. Guess said Jacob would call her from the store if he had questions. “I was just so thankful for what these young people were doing,” she said. “It’s just amazing how this brings out the good in people.”
Jacob, 16, said he spends six to eight hours a week buying groceries. Usually, he makes two deliveries a week.
“The first time I went, it took me forever to find everything. But soon I started to learn the layout(布局)and got faster,” said Jacob, who seldom went grocery shopping before volunteering for Teens Helping Seniors. “It’s given me a greater understanding of my mom when she goes grocery shopping,” he said.
12. What made Dhruv have the idea of setting up Teens Helping Seniors
A. The experience of buying groceries for his grandparents.
B. The fact that the old are unable to go to the stores.
C. The encouragement from the old he had helped.
D. The greatly increasing cases of coronavirus.
13. What do we know about Teens Helping Seniors
A. It has been a network only at a high school. B. It was set up after schools closed.
C. It has been largely developed. D. It was created by Dhruv alone.
14. What do Guess’ words mean
A. She thought highly of the teen volunteers.
B. She looked forward to joining the organization.
C. She encouraged people to follow the teens’ lead.
D. She thought the teens should have worked harder.
15. What did Jacob learn from his work for Teens Helping Seniors
A. He knew how to make choices. B. He understood his mom better.
C. He became organized and brave. D. He started to try to talk to strangers.

考查名词的数。句意：当然，我们不否认在我们的生活中找到一个更好的地方是很重要的，但是我们希望越来越多的人能多关注自己和他们的朋友。life为可数名词，由our可知应用复数形式。故填lives。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意：当然，我们不否认在我们的生活中找到一个更好的地方是很重要的，但是我们希望越来越多的人能多关注自己和他们的朋友。短语pay attention to sb./sth.，表示“关注，专注于”，符合题意。故填to。
【42题详解】
考查省略句。句意：当我们和朋友在一起时，我们可以完全释放自己。在when引导的状语从句中，当从句主语和主句主语一致且从句含有be的某种形式时，可省略从句的主语和be，相当于省略了we are。故填staying。

【详解】考查动词短语以及非谓语动词。“应该”用情态动词should表达；“采取措施去……”用动词短语take measures to do表达；“污染”用动词pollute表达，“防止”为动词prevent；“防止河流被污染”表达为prevent rivers from being polluted，river与动词pollute之间为逻辑上的被动关系，pollute用动名词被动形式being polluted作介词from的宾语；此句翻译为：We should take measures to prevent rivers from being polluted.

60. 运动对健康有益。(汉译英)
【答案】Exercise is beneficial to health.
【解析】
【详解】考查形容词。本句话为主系表结构。运动可用名词“exercise”，在句中作主语，该名词为不可数名词。句子描述一般事实，所以用一般现在时态。有益的可用形容词“beneficial”，在句中作表语。be beneficial to“对……是有益的”。健康可用名词“health”。故翻译为Exercise is beneficial to health.

【解析】
【详解】考查定语从句、动词、名词和介词短语。主语“我”用代词I，谓语“忘记”可用动词forget，此处描述未来的行为，时态宜用一般将来时，forget需用will do的形式，“永远不会”可用副词never，放在forget之前，宾语“时光”可用名词the time；“在乡下度过的”是修饰“时光”的定语，可用关系代词that或which引导限制性定语从句修饰先行词time，从句中隐含的主语“我”用代词I，谓语“度过”可用动词spend，此处描述过去发生的事情，时态宜用一般过去时，spend需用过去式的形式，“在乡下”可用介词短语in the countryside，且关系词词在从句中作spent的宾语，因此关系代词that或which可省略。故译为：I will never forget the time (that/which) I spent in the countryside.
