Friendship is a beautiful relationship. While some friendships tend to come to an end as we grow in life, there are some rare and special ones that are meant to last forever. No matter how many years pass by, the connection stays alive.
Two childhood best friends who were “joined at the hip” as kids were reunited over a half century later—when they least expected it.
Irene Gresty and Janet Henderson were neighbors in the 1940s, growing up in England, but like many friends, they lost touch over the years. After getting married, Gresty moved with her husband who was in the navy and was shipped to many foreign places. However, Gresty, despite living in many countries, loved her own country. Gresty said, “I loved the area where I grew up, so I wanted to settle down to enjoy retirement (退休).” Thanks to an event hosted by Bield Housing and Care, a non-profit organization devoted to supporting residents over 55 years old, finally they met each other. Gresty said, “We sat down beside each other and she turned to me and said ‘Is that you Irene ’ and I just laughed and said ‘Yes. Are you Janet ’ ” They couldn’t believe that they were meeting each other after so long. They spent the rest of the afternoon talking to each other.
Henderson said that it is usual in life for people to often move away from the area and lose contact. As their family names changed, Henderson couldn’t recognize her friend’s name despite being told about her. The two have promised to never stay long without seeing each other. They exchanged numbers so they could meet in the future. They have many years to catch up on everything they have missed.
4. What does the underlined part “joined at the hip” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Grow fast. B. Work hard.
C. Hang around. D. Stay together.

7. What did Gresty and Henderson promise to do next
A. Keep in touch. B. Travel abroad.
C. Post their stories. D. Make more friends.
【答案】4. D 5. D 6. A 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是记叙文。文章主要讲述了Gresty和Henderson两人从小是好朋友,由于某种原因,两人失去了联系,但是半个世纪后两人又重聚了。
【4题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线短语所在句子“Two childhood best friends who were “joined at the hip” as kids were reunited over a half century later—when they least expected it.(两个儿时最好的朋友在孩提时就“joined at the hip”,半个多世纪后在他们最意想不到的时候重聚。)”可知,半个世纪后两人重聚了,这说明两个人在小时候就是朋友,即两人小时候就待在一起,由此可知,画线短语joined at the hip意为“待在一起”,故选D。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“However, Gresty, despite living in many countries, loved her own country. Gresty said, “I loved the area where I grew up, so I wanted to settle down to enjoy retirement (退休).”(然而,尽管格雷斯蒂生活在许多国家,但她热爱自己的国家。格雷斯蒂说:“我喜欢我长大的地方,所以我想安定下来享受退休生活”)”可知,Gresty对家乡的热爱使她回到英格兰,故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Thanks to an event hosted by Bield Housing and Care, a non-profit organization devoted to supporting residents over 55 years old, finally they met each other. Gresty said, “We sat down beside each other and she turned to me and said ‘Is that you Irene ’ and I just laughed and said ‘Yes. Are you Janet ’ ” They couldn’t believe that they were meeting each other after so long. (感谢Bield Housing and Care(一家致力于支持 55 岁以上居民的非营利组织)主办的一次活动,他们终于见面了。格雷斯蒂说:“我们坐在一起,她转向我说‘是吗?’”是你艾琳吗?我只是笑了笑说:“是的。”“你是珍妮特吗?”她们不敢相信这么久之后又见面了)”可推知,Gresty和Henderson的重聚是出乎意料的,故选A。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The two have promised to never stay long without seeing each other. They exchanged numbers so they could meet in the future. They have many years to catch up on everything they have missed.(这两个人已答应不再久别重逢。他们交换了电话号码,以便将来见面。他们有许多年的时间来弥补他们错过的一切。)”可推知,Gresty和Henderson承诺接下来两人会保持联系,故选A。

The Torch Festival (火把节) is a traditional festival which is celebrated among some ethnic groups in southwestern China, such as the Yi, Bai, Hani, Lisu, and Lahu, etc. It usually falls on the 24th or 25th of June, with three days of celebrations. The festival came from worship (崇拜) of fire by ancestors (祖先). For some ethnic groups, it’s a tradition in the festival for elders to share farming experience with young people and educate them about taking care of crops.
During the festival, big torches are made to stand in all villages, with small torches placed in front of the door of each house. When night falls, the torches are lit and the villages are bright. At the same time, people walk around the fields and houses, holding small torches and placing the torches in the field corners. Inside the villages, young people are singing and dancing around the big torches that keep burning throughout the night. Other activities like horse races are also held during the festival.
In a horse race of the Yi people in Yunnan, torches are used to form hurdles for riders to get through. The Hani people in Yunnan traditionally tie fruits to torches with strings. When the strings are broken after the torches are lit, people struggle for the fruits for good luck.
For the Lisu people in Sichuan, the festival is an occasion for holding torch parades. Big torches are carried by teams of people, which is like a fire dragon. If different teams meet, it’s a tradition to exchange the big torches with one another.
8. What can we know about the Torch Festival from the first paragraph
A. It has nothing to do with farming.
B. Its celebrations usually last two days.
C. It is a traditional festival of all China.
D. It is a festival to show worship of fire.
9. What does the underlined word “them” in paragraph 1 refer to
A. ancestors. B. young people.
C. elders. D. ethnic groups.
10. What is the main idea of the second paragraph
A Why the festival is enjoyed. B. Where the festival is celebrated.
C. How the festival is celebrated. D. What torches are used for the festival.
11. Which is a way that Lisu people in Sichuan celebrate the festival according to the text
A. Holding torch parades. B. Tying fruits to torches with strings.
C. Struggling for fruits for good luck. D. Using torches as hurdles for a horse race.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了火把节是中国西南地区一些少数民族的传统节日,以及在节日期间不同民族的庆祝活动。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中The festival came from worship (崇拜) of fire by ancestors (祖先). 这个节日源于祖先对火的崇拜。可知,火把节是一个祭火的节日。故选D项。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第一段中For some ethnic groups, it’s a tradition in the festival for elders to share farming experience with young people and educate them about taking care of crops. 对于一些少数民族来说,年长者与年轻人分享种植经验并教育他们如何照料庄稼是节日的传统。由年长者分享种植经验给年轻人,可以猜测也是年长者教育年轻人如何照料庄稼,因此代词them指的是年轻人“young people”。故选B项。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段During the festival, big torches are made to stand in all villages, with small torches placed in front of the door of each house. When night falls, the torches are lit and the villages are bright. At the same time, people walk around the fields and houses, holding small torches and placing the torches in the field corners. Inside the villages, young people are singing and dancing around the big torches that keep burning throughout the night. Other activities like horse races are also held during the festival. 在节日期间,所有的村庄都要制作大火炬,每户人家门前都要放置小火炬。夜幕降临,火把点亮,村庄一片光明。与此同时,人们在田野和房屋周围走动,拿着小火把,把火把放在田野的角落里。在村子里,年轻人围着通宵燃烧的大火把唱歌跳舞。其他活动,如赛马也在节日期间举行。可知,本段主要是讲述了在火把节期间的庆祝活动,也就是怎么庆祝这个节日。故选C项。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中For the Lisu people in Sichuan, the festival is an occasion for holding torch parades.对四川傈僳族人来说,这个节日是一个举行火把游行的场合。可知,举行火把游行是四川傈僳族人庆祝节日的一种方式。故选A项。

A new app will soon help more than 50,000 Israeli students learn English through popular music.
“There is so much research out there that shows how music can help students learn,” says Michael Peled, founder and CEO of Singit.“Getting kids to interact (互动) with words in real life through music is a very useful learning tool, and we are finding that it also works for dyslexic (朗读困难的) and special education students.”

Pilot tests show that the app increased students’ interaction with the English language by 62%.“ Singit was recently recognized by the Ministry of Education. Many schools, including ten special education schools, have already chosen the app,” Peled adds.“ By the end of the year, we will have about 53,000 users around the countr.” Peled has big plans for Singit.“ We are going to introduce Singit to Asia, Brazil, and other places where they teach English as a second language.”

第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Make sure to avoid the following common body-language errors, if you want to make a good impression on your conversational partner.
Continuous nodding
Nodding at all the right times and places during a conversation can show that you’re fully engaged. ____16____, it’ll make you appear that you’re hoping to hide the fact that you’re hardly—or not even—paying attention. Keep your head straight, your eyes forward, and only nod when appropriate.
Crossing your arms
There’s a reason why people don’t like it when their conversational partners cross their arms: It makes them appear unwilling to talk. In the animal kingdom, we keep our arms in front of us to protect ourselves from threats. ____17____.
Unsmiling
We’re not saying you should smile as if the person you’re speaking with keeps making jokes. However, you should try and keep a smile loaded up whenever needed. Smiles are also infectious. ____18____, your partner will smile too.
____19____
Keeping your eyes on your feet or the ground in front of you when speaking with another person can make you look a bit ashamed of yourself. This is definitely the impression you don’t want to make on your listeners, especially in formal settings where you’re being judged by everything you say and do, such as at a job interview. So try to keep your eyes focused on the person in front of you.
Being too close
____20____. Depending on where you live, the distance between two people can be as close as two feet or as far as five. Whichever it is, give your conversational partner room to breathe freely. Nobody likes having their personal space invaded, so try and respect his or her wishes by keeping an appropriate distance.
A. Looking downward
B. But if you nod too much
C. Irregular movement of the eyes
D. Keep smiling when the other people are talking
E. But in social life, try to keep our body as open as possible
F. So if you start smiling
G. All cultures are different in terms of proper social conduct
【答案】16. B 17. E 18. F 19. A 20. G
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了几个不当的肢体语言动作及纠正措施。
16题详解】
上文“Nodding at all the right times and places during a conversation can show that you’re fully engaged.”(在谈话中,在适当的时间和地点点头可以表明你完全投入。)说明谈话中适当的点头是可接受的,并结合后文“it’ll make you appear that you’re hoping to hide the fact that you’re hardly-or not even-paying attention. Keep your head straight, your eyes forward, and only nod when appropriate.”(这会让人觉得你是在试图掩盖你几乎不注意或者根本不注意的事实。保持头直,眼睛向前,只在适当的时候点头。)可知,空前讲到在谈话的时候不时地点点头会让人感到你在倾听,空后说的则是你可能只是在点头敷衍,这中间应该有个转折。故B项“But if you nod too much”(但是如果你频频点头)符合语境,故选B项。
【17题详解】
上文“There’s a reason why people don’t like it when their conversational partners cross their arms: It makes them appear unwilling to talk. In the animal kingdom, we keep our arms in front of us to protect ourselves from threats.”(人们不喜欢谈话对象双臂交叉是有原因的:这会让他们看起来不愿意说话。在动物王国里,我们把手臂放在前面来保护自己免受威胁。)说明在动物王国里,交叉手臂放在胸前是为了自卫,E项“But in social life, try to keep our body as open as possible”(但是在社交生活中,尽量保持我们的身体开放)与上文构成转折,说明在社交生活中应该有不一样的做法,符合语境,故选E项。
【18题详解】
上文“Smiles are also infectious.”(微笑也是有感染力的。)说明了微笑具有感染力,并结合下文“your partner will smile too.”(你的伴侣也会微笑。)可知,空处需给出伴侣也会微笑这件事发生的条件,F项“So if you start smiling”(所以如果你开始微笑)构成下文的条件,符合语境。故选F项。
【19题详解】
下文“Keeping your eyes on your feet or the ground in front of you when speaking with another person can make you look a bit ashamed of yourself. This is definitely the impression you don’t want to make on your listeners, especially in formal settings where you’re being judged by everything you say and do, such as at a job interview. So try to keep your eyes focused on the person in front of you.”(当你和别人说话时,眼睛盯着你的脚或你面前的地面会让你看起来有点惭愧。这绝对是你不想给你的听众留下的印象,特别是在正式的场合,你的一言一行都会被评判,比如在面试中。所以试着把你的目光集中在你面前的人身上。)可知,本段指出不恰当的身体姿势是低头看地面,A项“Looking downward”(低头看地面)可总结本段内容。故选A项。
【20题详解】
下文“Depending on where you live, the distance between two people can be as close as two feet or as far as five. Whichever it is, give your conversational partner room to breathe freely. ”(根据你生活的地方,两个人之间的距离可以近至两英尺,也可以远至五英尺。不管是哪种情况,给你的谈话对象自由呼吸的空间。)说明生活的地方不同,谈话时要保持的距离也不相同,G项“All cultures are different in terms of proper social conduct”(就适当的社会行为而言,所有的文化都是不同的)说明文化差异会导致不同的社会行为,衔接后文具体的解释,居住地的不同会影响双方谈话时的距离,这就反映出了文化差异会导致不同的社会行为,符合语境。故选G项。

【答案】范文
Change begins with you
As we know, the number of wild animal is becoming smaller and smaller. Some of them are even dying out. The reasons are as follows:
To start with, people have been cutting down trees for building, causing some animals to lose their habitats. Besides, farmers use too much pesticide, which endangers the lives of some animals. In addition, to make money, some people have been killing rare wild animals.
In my opinion, it’s time we took immediate measures to change the situation. We shouldn’t cut down trees without permission. Instead, we are supposed to plant more trees to protect the animals’ living conditions. At the same time, more nature reserves are expected to be set up.
I believe as long as we take action immediately, we will live in harmony with animals and life will become better.

Friendship is a beautiful relationship. While some friendships tend to come to an end as we grow in life, there are some rare and special ones that are meant to last forever. No matter how many years pass by, the connection stays alive.
Two childhood best friends who were “joined at the hip” as kids were reunited over a half century later—when they least expected it.
Irene Gresty and Janet Henderson were neighbors in the 1940s, growing up in England, but like many friends, they lost touch over the years. After getting married, Gresty moved with her husband who was in the navy and was shipped to many foreign places. However, Gresty, despite living in many countries, loved her own country. Gresty said, “I loved the area where I grew up, so I wanted to settle down to enjoy retirement (退休).” Thanks to an event hosted by Bield Housing and Care, a non-profit organization devoted to supporting residents over 55 years old, finally they met each other. Gresty said, “We sat down beside each other and she turned to me and said ‘Is that you Irene ’ and I just laughed and said ‘Yes. Are you Janet ’ ” They couldn’t believe that they were meeting each other after so long. They spent the rest of the afternoon talking to each other.
Henderson said that it is usual in life for people to often move away from the area and lose contact. As their family names changed, Henderson couldn’t recognize her friend’s name despite being told about her. The two have promised to never stay long without seeing each other. They exchanged numbers so they could meet in the future. They have many years to catch up on everything they have missed.
4. What does the underlined part “joined at the hip” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Grow fast. B. Work hard.
C. Hang around. D. Stay together.

The Torch Festival (火把节) is a traditional festival which is celebrated among some ethnic groups in southwestern China such as the Yi, Bai, Hani, Lisu, and Lahu, etc. It usually falls on the 24th or 25th of June, with three days of celebrations. The festival came from worship (崇拜) of fire by ancestors (祖先). For some ethnic groups, it’s a tradition in the festival for elders to share farming experience with young people and educate them about taking care of crops.
During the festival, big torches are made to stand in all villages, with small torches placed in front of the door of each house. When night falls, the torches are lit and the villages are bright. At the same time, people walk around the fields and houses, holding small torches and placing the torches in the field corners.

A new app will soon help more than 50,000 Israeli students learn English through popular music.
“There is so much research out there that shows how music can help students learn,” says Michael Peled, founder and CEO of Singit.“Getting kids to interact (互动) with words in real life through music is a very useful learning tool, and we are finding that it also works for dyslexic (朗读困难的) and special education students.”
Students can listen on their phones or computers to music from a sea of songs and follow along with the lyrics a on the screen. When they see a word that they don’t recognize, they can click (点击) the word. With the help of AI and Machine Learning technology, Singit offers other songs with the words they didn’t know. After hearing the song, students are given a test that tests them for the words they clicked on. Meanwhile, teachers can send students customized grammar tests.
“We work with a company called LyricFind that provides more than five million songs. Most schools won’t want to have many types of songs due to educational considerations, but that will still leave more than 100,000 songs they can hear,” Peled says.
“The first version (版本) of the app we built in 2017 was bad, but by 2019, we had a new version, and we tested it throughout 2020,” Peled says. Pilot tests show that the app increased students’ interaction with the English language by 62%.“ Singit was recently recognized by the Ministry of Education. Many schools, including ten special education schools, have already chosen the app,” Peled adds.“ By the end of the year, we will have about 53,000 users around the countr.” Peled has big plans for Singit.“ We are going to introduce Singit to Asia, Brazil, and other places where they teach English as a second language.”
