A
By the end of the year, editors of The New York Times have picked the 4 best books of 2019, including fiction and non-fiction. Let's see which one will take your fancy.
Disappearing Earth
By Julia Phillips
In the first chapter of this novel, two young girls vanish, sending shock waves through a town on the edge of the remote and mysterious Kamchatka Peninsula. What follows is a novel of overlapping short stories about the different women who have been affected by their disappearance. Each tale pushes the narrative forward another month and exposes the ways in which the women of Kamchatka have been destroyed — personally, culturally and emotionally — by the crime.
No Visible Bruises
By Rachel Louise Snyder
Snyder's thoroughly reported book covers what the World Health Organization has called "a global health problem". In America alone, more than half of all murdered women are killed by a current or former life partner; domestic violence cuts across lines of class, religion and race. Snyder reveals pervasive myths (restraining orders are the answer, abusers never change) and writes movingly about the lives (and deaths) of people on both sides of the equation. She doesn't give easy answers but presents a wealth of information that is its own form of hope.
Midnight in Chernobyl
By Adam Higginbotham
Higginbotham's superb account of the April 1986 explosion at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant is one of those rare books about science and technology that read like a tension-filled thriller. Filled with vivid detail and sharply etched personalities, this narrative of astonishing incompetence moves from mistake to mistake, miscalculation to miscalculation, as it builds to the inevitable, history-changing disaster.
Exhalation
By Ted Chiang
Many of the nine deeply beautiful stories in this collection explore the material consequences of time travel. Reading them feels like sitting at dinner with a friend who explains scientific theory to you with no airs and graces. Each thoughtful, elegantly crafted story poses a philosophical question; Chiang arranges all nine into a conversation that comes full circle, after having travelled through remarkable areas.
1.Which of the following tells about the violence from a husband to a wife in a family
A.Disappearing Earth B.No Visible Bruises
C.Midnight in Chernobyl D.Exhalation
2.How may readers feel when reading the book Midnight in Chernobyl
A.Delighted. B.Awkward. C.Tense. D.Calm.
3.What kind of book is Exhalation
A.A folk tale. B.A biography. C.A love story. D.A sci-fi story.
B
Cooking with steam is of great importance in Chinese cuisine. It's one of the best ways to lock the original flavors in the ingredients.
Vegetables are healthy and full of fiber, and steaming is a quick way to cook them without using much oil. Chinese cabbage is a perfect vegetable to steam: crunchy, tender, less fibrous and mildly sweet. The tender cabbage can be steamed directly with a simple sauce consisting of garlic paste, soy sauce and sugar. Root vegetables like sweet potatoes are also great for steaming. They can be cut into thick sticks or slices and then steamed until the center becomes soft. Thin pieces of carrots, fresh sophora flowers (槐花) can be coated with dry flour and then steamed. This quick dish is usually served with a garlic paste and vinegar sauce.
Steaming fish, shrimp and crabs, is all about preserving the original taste, so freshness is the absolute No. 1 rule when we shop for seafood to be steamed For fine foods from a river, lake or sea, they must be freshly caught the day you buy them. Frozen fish is seldom steamed directly, because there can be a stronger fishy smell and taste. With all the internal organs and scales removed and blood cleaned, the fish is packed with slices of ginger and scallions (姜和葱) that can neutralize the fishiness. It's then placed in a steamer that has been preheated to boil, and cooked for 8 to 10 minutes depending on the size of the fish. The final step is to place scallions on top of the steamed fish. Then, in a small pot, heat up some oil and pour it across the body of the fish to help the flavor release. Next, drizzle (浇) a couple of spoons of seasoned soy sauce for seafood around the plate and serve. When eating the fish, it's best to dip it in the sauce for the sweet taste.
4.What is the advantage of steaming according to the passage
A. Low cost. B. Sweet taste.
C. Shining appearance. D. Original flavor.
5.What may the underlined word "neutralize" in paragraph 3 mean
A. Waste. B. Add. C. Reduce. D. Gain.
6.What is the right order of making steamed fish according to the passage
①Clean the fish. ②Steam the fish. ③Drizzle some sauce. ④Pour some hot oil onto the fish.
⑤Pack the fish with some ginger and scallions.
A. ①②③④⑤ B. ①④⑤②③ C. ①⑤④③② D. ①⑤②④③
7.What is the best title for the text
A. Cooking meals with steam. B. Cooking seafood in a new way.
C. Advantages of cooking with steam. D. Tips for cooking some delicious dishes.

Music filled the silence of the practice room. Our teacher made the dance look so easy when she was demonstrating it herself. Her movements flowed naturally with the rhythm of the music. Her eyes filled with confidence while she looked at herself in the mirror. Her dancing appealed to me.
Finishing the demonstration, she told us, "It's your time to shine!" Over the course of four months, we practiced week after week as we prepared for our final performance: a real performance with an actual audience. That thought of standing onstage in front of a cheering crowd gave me instant stage fright.
In the beginning, we'd even grab drinks together after rehearsal (排练) and evaluate our own mistakes from the sessions. However, after a couple of weeks, our movements weren't the same as usual. Some of my classmates no longer cared about the performance; others no longer felt motivated to improve their dancing abilities. So why did we continue practising if we didn't even plan to finish it
Matching the teacher's dancing was an impossible goal. But I still used the course as a chance to start improving, even if it meant that I started at the very bottom. I didn't pressure myself to perfect the choreography (编舞). I let that pressure move through my body instead, until I no longer saw myself in the mirror memorizing steps but actually dancing to the music.
On the day of the performance, recalling the way my teacher danced attracted me that first day, I entered the stage. I couldn't see the audience through the bright spotlights. It was all dark around us, which made me less nervous. I only focused on my body, my mind, and the music. My mind was empty; I lost myself in the dance. I succeeded. And I knew at that moment, I engaged others, too.
8.What do we know about the author's teacher
A. She proved dance learning was easy. B. She enjoyed looking into the mirror.
C. She showed a positive self-identity. D. She was demanding with students.
9.What happened to some classmates after weeks of rehearsal
A. They stopped seeking feedback actively.
B. They lost enthusiasm for practising.
C. They focused on other things instead.
D. They avoided social interactions post-practice.
10.How did the author practise dancing
A. By observing every small step. B. By arranging the movements.
C. By prolonging practice hours. D. By co-existing with pressure.
11.What is the suitable title for the text
A. Dancing my way to Success. B. A Rewarding Dance Rehearsal.
C. Forgetting Fright in Dance. D. The Power of Dance Practice.
D
More than 2,200 years ago, a battle between the Romans and the Carthaginians took place at sea off northwestern Sicily. Rome was victorious, defeating the other military ships and ending the war. While so much was destroyed at the time, scientists have recently discovered a shipwreck that was sunk in the battle with at least 114 animal species living on the ship's ram (夯锤).
The ram's discovery is an important archaeological discovery. But finding it to be a host for so much underwater life also provides great insight for scientists studying how marine animals colonize (聚居) empty sites and slowly create diverse and rich communities there.
The ram was recovered in 2017, located between 75 and 90 metres deep. It's bronze and hollow, allowing it to accumulate (积累) sea creatures both inside and outside. Several years later the ram was cleaned and restored by researchers. All the marine animals found inside and outside the ram were collected, along with blocks of sediment (沉积物) and hardened materials from the same area.
Scientists have been working to compare the species found in and around the ram with those found in similar Mediterranean habitats. They reconstructed how it had likely been colonized. "We conclude that the primary 'constructors' in this community are organisms which attach themselves directly to the wreck's surface," said Edoardo Casoli from Sapienza University of Rome. "Then there are 'habitants' which aren't attached but move freely between empty spaces in the superstructure. What we don't yet know exactly is the order in which these organisms colonize wrecks."
"Younger shipwrecks (遇难船只) typically host a less diverse community than their environment," said Maria Flavia Gravina, another researcher. "By comparison, our ram is much more representative of the natural habitat. It can act as a novel kind of sampling tool for scientists, which effectively acts as an 'ecological memory' of colonization."
12.Why is the battle between the Romans and the Carthaginians mentioned
A. To lead in the topic.
B. To draw a conclusion.
C. To arouse sympathy about the war.
D. To clarify the serious damage caused by the war.
13.How did scientists do research into the marine animals on the ram
A. By creating the post-war situations.
B. By comparing the habitats of 114 species.
C. By restoration, reconstruction and comparison.
D. By putting the organisms that colonize wrecks in order.
14.What does the underlined word "It" refer to in the last paragraph
A. The ship's ram. B. The marine environment.
C. A less diverse community. D. The natural habitat of marine animals.
15.Where is the text probably taken from
A. A guidebook to sea exploration. B. An educational website.
C. A government document. D. A natural science magazine.
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。
As spring begins, so does a fresh song at daybreak, unique to the season. Just before the sun rises, birds start singing their melodies, creating a symphony. This phenomenon is known as the dawn chorus and this harmony of birdsong at dawn happens during a fundamental time of the year. The dawn chorus is, in fact, mostly composed of birds of both genders singing to find a mate. 16.______ They need to compete with each other as well, and the louder, the better in regard to who is the most impressive mate.
17.______ There's a lot of debate, and it seems that there is no general agreement on exactly why it is that everything happens at dawn. One possibility is that weather conditions at dawn make it easier for birdsong to travel. 18.______ Sound also transmits more clearly when humidity (湿度) is higher so that details of the song do not degrade as much over distance. It may also be that in the morning, after the night has passed, male birds want to inform their competitors that they're still there, claiming their territory.
Witnessing the dawn chorus can be a rewarding experience, and this phenomenon can also help scientists work on bird conservation. 19.______ For example, scientists record the dawn chorus to understand which species live in an area, or how populations are changing.
Fortunately, anyone can listen to it. This spring, just wake up early, bring a cup of coffee, head out into nature, and stand still and listen. 20.______ It's the most natural soundtrack on Earth, which is just so wonderful.
A.These birds sing louder to be heard.
B.What makes birdsong much louder in the morning
C.It's better to do some research on how birds sing and hum.
D.But why birds sing in the early morning is still an open question.
E.Generally, sound travels farther when the air is cooler and denser.
F.You don't need to know how to identify bird calls or songs to just appreciate them.
G.Listening to birdsong is a window into the health of the species and the ecosystem.

It seemed David had done everything he'd ever wanted to do in his life, but he had one regret. He was born in 1898, the oldest of five kids. His dad couldn't afford to send him to school, so David worked in the fields with his dad till he was 21 years old.
By 1928, David had been wandering for nine years. He meta woman named Catherine. They fell in love, married and moved to Dallas, where he got a job fixing roads for the city. When Amelia, the oldest of their three children, first went to school, David took his wife aside. "Catherine," he said. "I don't want our kids to know I can't read or write."
In 1938, one day David's boss called him in. "David," he said. "I'd like to promote you. Fill out this application and I'll get you a raise." David said thanks and walked out of his boss' office. He kept working until he turned 65 when he retired. For the next 10 years, he lived a happy life, but it still seemed to him like something was missing.
One day, a young girl handed him a piece of paper. It's information about adult education classes. People can learn to read and write. Now he's 80. He thought of his friends and neighbors and what they might think if they found out he couldn't read. After all these years, his secret would be out. But all his life he had wanted to read. It was high time for action.

By the end of the year, editors of The New York Times have picked the 4 best books of 2019, including fiction and non-fiction. Let's see which one will take your fancy.
Disappearing Earth
By Julia Phillips
In the first chapter of this novel, two young girls vanish, sending shock waves through a town on the edge of the remote and mysterious Kamchatka Peninsula. What follows is a novel of overlapping short stories about the different women who have been affected by their disappearance. Each tale pushes the narrative forward another month and exposes the ways in which the women of Kamchatka have been destroyed — personally, culturally and emotionally — by the crime.

Snyder's thoroughly reported book covers what the World Health Organization has called "a global health problem". In America alone, more than half of all murdered women are killed by a current or former life partner; domestic violence cuts across lines of class, religion and race. Snyder reveals pervasive myths (restraining orders are the answer, abusers never change) and writes movingly about the lives (and deaths) of people on both sides of the equation.

By Adam Higginbotham
Higginbotham's superb account of the April 1986 explosion at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant is one of those rare books about science and technology that read like a tension-filled thriller. Filled with vivid detail and sharply etched personalities, this narrative of astonishing incompetence moves from mistake to mistake, miscalculation to miscalculation, as it builds to the inevitable, history-changing disaster.

Cooking with steam is of great importance in Chinese cuisine. It's one of the best ways to lock the original flavors in the ingredients.
Vegetables are healthy and full of fiber, and steaming is a quick way to cook them without using much oil. Chinese cabbage is a perfect vegetable to steam: crunchy, tender, less fibrous and mildly sweet. The tender cabbage can be steamed directly with a simple sauce consisting of garlic paste, soy sauce and sugar. Root vegetables like sweet potatoes are also great for steaming. They can be cut into thick sticks or slices and then steamed until the center becomes soft. Thin pieces of carrots, fresh sophora flowers (槐花) can be coated with dry flour and then steamed. This quick dish is usually served with a garlic paste and vinegar sauce.
Steaming fish, shrimp and crabs, is all about preserving the original taste, so freshness is the absolute No. 1 rule when we shop for seafood to be steamed For fine foods from a river, lake or sea, they must be freshly caught the day you buy them. Frozen fish is seldom steamed directly, because there can be a stronger fishy smell and taste. With all the internal organs and scales removed and blood cleaned, the fish is packed with slices of ginger and scallions (姜和葱) that can neutralize the fishiness. It's then placed in a steamer that has been preheated to boil, and cooked for 8 to 10 minutes depending on the size of the fish. The final step is to place scallions on top of the steamed fish. Then, in a small pot, heat up some oil and pour it across the body of the fish to help the flavor release. Next, drizzle (浇) a couple of spoons of seasoned soy sauce for seafood around the plate and serve. When eating the fish, it's best to dip it in the sauce for the sweet taste.
4.What is the advantage of steaming according to the passage
A. Low cost. B. Sweet taste.
C. Shining appearance. D. Original flavor.
5.What may the underlined word "neutralize" in paragraph 3 mean
A. Waste. B. Add. C. Reduce. D. Gain.
6.What is the right order of making steamed fish according to the passage
①Clean the fish. ②Steam the fish. ③Drizzle some sauce. ④Pour some hot oil onto the fish.
⑤Pack the fish with some ginger and scallions.
A. ①②③④⑤ B. ①④⑤②③ C. ①⑤④③② D. ①⑤②④③
7.What is the best title for the text
A. Cooking meals with steam. B. Cooking seafood in a new way.
C. Advantages of cooking with steam. D. Tips for cooking some delicious dishes.

Music filled the silence of the practice room. Our teacher made the dance look so easy when she was demonstrating it herself. Her movements flowed naturally with the rhythm of the music. Her eyes filled with confidence while she looked at herself in the mirror. Her dancing appealed to me.
Finishing the demonstration, she told us, "It's your time to shine!" Over the course of four months, we practiced week after week as we prepared for our final performance: a real performance with an actual audience. That thought of standing onstage in front of a cheering crowd gave me instant stage fright.
In the beginning, we'd even grab drinks together after rehearsal (排练) and evaluate our own mistakes from the sessions. However, after a couple of weeks, our movements weren't the same as usual. Some of my classmates no longer cared about the performance; others no longer felt motivated to improve their dancing abilities. So why did we continue practising if we didn't even plan to finish it
Matching the teacher's dancing was an impossible goal. But I still used the course as a chance to start improving, even if it meant that I started at the very bottom. I didn't pressure myself to perfect the choreography (编舞). I let that pressure move through my body instead, until I no longer saw myself in the mirror memorizing steps but actually dancing to the music.
On the day of the performance, recalling the way my teacher danced attracted me that first day, I entered the stage. I couldn't see the audience through the bright spotlights. It was all dark around us, which made me less nervous. I only focused on my body, my mind, and the music. My mind was empty; I lost myself in the dance. I succeeded. And I knew at that moment, I engaged others, too.
8.What do we know about the author's teacher
A. She proved dance learning was easy. B. She enjoyed looking into the mirror.
C. She showed a positive self-identity. D. She was demanding with students.
9.What happened to some classmates after weeks of rehearsal
A. They stopped seeking feedback actively.
B. They lost enthusiasm for practising.
C. They focused on other things instead.
D. They avoided social interactions post-practice.
10.How did the author practise dancing
A. By observing every small step. B. By arranging the movements.
C. By prolonging practice hours. D. By co-existing with pressure.
11.What is the suitable title for the text
A. Dancing my way to Success. B. A Rewarding Dance Rehearsal.
C. Forgetting Fright in Dance. D. The Power of Dance Practice.

More than 2,200 years ago, a battle between the Romans and the Carthaginians took place at sea off northwestern Sicily. Rome was victorious, defeating the other military ships and ending the war. While so much was destroyed at the time, scientists have recently discovered a shipwreck that was sunk in the battle with at least 114 animal species living on the ship's ram (夯锤).
The ram's discovery is an important archaeological discovery. But finding it to be a host for so much underwater life also provides great insight for scientists studying how marine animals colonize (聚居) empty sites and slowly create diverse and rich communities there.
The ram was recovered in 2017, located between 75 and 90 metres deep. It's bronze and hollow, allowing it to accumulate (积累) sea creatures both inside and outside. Several years later the ram was cleaned and restored by researchers. All the marine animals found inside and outside the ram were collected, along with blocks of sediment (沉积物) and hardened materials from the same area.
Scientists have been working to compare the species found in and around the ram with those found in similar Mediterranean habitats. They reconstructed how it had likely been colonized. "We conclude that the primary 'constructors' in this community are organisms which attach themselves directly to the wreck's surface," said Edoardo Casoli from Sapienza University of Rome. "Then there are 'habitants' which aren't attached but move freely between empty spaces in the superstructure. What we don't yet know exactly is the order in which these organisms colonize wrecks."
"Younger shipwrecks (遇难船只) typically host a less diverse community than their environment," said Maria Flavia Gravina, another researcher. "By comparison, our ram is much more representative of the natural habitat. It can act as a novel kind of sampling tool for scientists, which effectively acts as an 'ecological memory' of colonization."
12.Why is the battle between the Romans and the Carthaginians mentioned
A. To lead in the topic.
B. To draw a conclusion.
C. To arouse sympathy about the war.
D. To clarify the serious damage caused by the war.
13.How did scientists do research into the marine animals on the ram
A. By creating the post-war situations.
B. By comparing the habitats of 114 species.
C. By restoration, reconstruction and comparison.
D. By putting the organisms that colonize wrecks in order.
14.What does the underlined word "It" refer to in the last paragraph
A. The ship's ram. B. The marine environment.
C. A less diverse community. D. The natural habitat of marine animals.
15.Where is the text probably taken from
A. A guidebook to sea exploration. B. An educational website.
C. A government document. D. A natural science magazine.

As spring begins, so does a fresh song at daybreak, unique to the season. Just before the sun rises, birds start singing their melodies, creating a symphony. This phenomenon is known as the dawn chorus and this harmony of birdsong at dawn happens during a fundamental time of the year. The dawn chorus is, in fact, mostly composed of birds of both genders singing to find a mate. 16.______ They need to compete with each other as well, and the louder, the better in regard to who is the most impressive mate.
17.______ There's a lot of debate, and it seems that there is no general agreement on exactly why it is that everything happens at dawn. One possibility is that weather conditions at dawn make it easier for birdsong to travel. 18.______ Sound also transmits more clearly when humidity (湿度) is higher so that details of the song do not degrade as much over distance. It may also be that in the morning, after the night has passed, male birds want to inform their competitors that they're still there, claiming their territory.
Witnessing the dawn chorus can be a rewarding experience, and this phenomenon can also help scientists work on bird conservation. 19.______ For example, scientists record the dawn chorus to understand which species live in an area, or how populations are changing.
Fortunately, anyone can listen to it. This spring, just wake up early, bring a cup of coffee, head out into nature, and stand still and listen. 20.______ It's the most natural soundtrack on Earth, which is just so wonderful.
A.These birds sing louder to be heard.
B.What makes birdsong much louder in the morning
C.It's better to do some research on how birds sing and hum.
D.But why birds sing in the early morning is still an open question.
E.Generally, sound travels farther when the air is cooler and denser.
F.You don't need to know how to identify bird calls or songs to just appreciate them.
G.Listening to birdsong is a window into the health of the species and the ecosystem.

It seemed David had done everything he'd ever wanted to do in his life, but he had one regret. He was born in 1898, the oldest of five kids. His dad couldn't afford to send him to school, so David worked in the fields with his dad till he was 21 years old.
By 1928, David had been wandering for nine years. He meta woman named Catherine. They fell in love, married and moved to Dallas, where he got a job fixing roads for the city. When Amelia, the oldest of their three children, first went to school, David took his wife aside. "Catherine," he said. "I don't want our kids to know I can't read or write."
In 1938, one day David's boss called him in. "David," he said. "I'd like to promote you. Fill out this application and I'll get you a raise." David said thanks and walked out of his boss' office. He kept working until he turned 65 when he retired. For the next 10 years, he lived a happy life, but it still seemed to him like something was missing.
One day, a young girl handed him a piece of paper. It's information about adult education classes. People can learn to read and write. Now he's 80. He thought of his friends and neighbors and what they might think if they found out he couldn't read. After all these years, his secret would be out. But all his life he had wanted to read. It was high time for action.
