Having
met
only
weeks
before,climbers
Edmund
Hillary
and
Tenzing
Norgay
shook
hands
before
hugging
each
other
in
a
moment
that
would
put
their
names
in
history
books
forever.
They
were
on
top
of
the
world-literally.After
five
hours
of
continuous
climbing
the
two
first
climbed
to
the
top
of
Mount
Everest,
the
highest
spot
on
Earth.
As
the
ultimate
climbing
goal
for
them
both
and
the
dream
of
most
climbers,
they
had
just
15
minutes
to
absorb
the
experience
of
being
at
8,848
metres
above
sea
level.
Any
longer
and
they
may
not
have
made
it
back
to
camp
to
tell
the
tale.
With
this
in
mind,
the
pair
spent
some
of
their
precious
minutes
searching
the
area
for
signs
of
those
who
had
been
before
them.
The
bodies
of
two
previous
Everest
hopefuls-Andrew
Irvine
and
George
Mallory
of
the
1924
attempt-were
in
the
thoughts
of
Norgay
and
Hillary.However,
they
could
find
no
sign
of
them
having
reached
the
top.
Everest
has
been
responsible
for
claiming
over
300
lives
and
endangering
many
others,
as
it
poses
huge
and
unpredictable
challenges,with
high
altitudes(海拔）putting
immense
tension
on
human
biology
and
with
its
icy
land
making
each
step
a
risk.
When
the
climbers
made
it
back
to
camp
and
the
news
spread,
global
admiration
and
fame
poured
in.
Norgay
and
Hillary
were
determined
to
be
the
first
to
conquer
the
world's
highest
mountain.
They
had
done
it.
At
the
time
they
believed
that
the
box
had
been
ticked
and
no
one
else
would
put
themselves
through
the
danger
to
repeat
their
achievement.
They
couldn't
have
been
more
wrong.
Today
hundreds
of
people
choose
to
follow
in
their
footsteps
every
year.
In
contrast
to
the
total
isolation(孤立）
felt
on
the
first
successful
journey,
during
times
of
ideal
weather
conditions,queues
form
up
to
the
mountain's
summit.
This
creates
dangerous
standstills
(停滞）in
the
mountain's
most
deadly
zones.
Whether
you
believe
these
adventurers
to
be
brave,
admirable
or
out
of
their
minds,
it
is
clear
that
Hillary
and
Norgay
have
provided
knowledge
and
inspiration
for
many
to
find
out
how
it
feels
to
truly
be
on
top
of
the
world.
4.

did
Edmund
Hillary
and
Tenzing
Norgay

on
the

Mount
Everest.
B.
They
celebrated
their
victory
with
many
climbers.
C.
They
tried
to
find
signs
of
earlier
climbers.
D.
They
shared
the
experience
as
long
as
15
minutes.
5.
What
can
be
inferred
about

Veronica
Vorobet
learned
about
caring
in
her
home
country
of
Romania
by
nursing
her
grandparents.
In
2013,
after
their
deaths,
she
moved
to
England
to
find
a
job
using
the
freedom
provided
by
EU
(European
Union)membership.
Vorobet,
36,
is
one
of
a
quarter
of
a
million
care
workers
who
are
not
UK
citizens,
a
rising
percentage
of
whom
have
come
from
the
EU
in
recent
years.They
have
become
an
essential
part
of
a
low-paid
workforce
that
is
constantly
understaffed(人手不足的），with
about
120,000
unoccupied
positions.
Yesterday,
she
expressed
disappointment
with
the
announcement
that
there
would
be
no
special
treatment
for
carers
coming
into
the
UK
after
Brexit
-British
exit
from
the
EU.
“I
want
to
see
people
treated
the
way
I
want
to
be
treated
and
to
make
a
difference
in
people's
lives,
making
a
feeling
of
home
for
everyone,”
she
told
the
Guardian.
“The
foreign
workers
are
important
in
this.
They
are
able
to
work
under
a
lot
of
stress
and
long
hours.
In
my
country
we
are
very
close
to
our
elderly
people
and
that
is
what
we
show
here.
We
try
to
be
close
to
them
and
respect
their
wishes."
She
said
her
approach
was
to
treat
residents
as
if
they
were
her
own
grandparents
and
provide
similar
levels
of
“support
and
love.”
When
she
arrived
in
the
UK,
Vorobet
started
as
a
junior
care
worker
on
minimum
wage
in
a
home
for
older
people
in
Petersfield,
Hampshire.
Seven
years
on
and
having
studied
for
an
NVQ
in
health
and
social
care,
she
is
a
deputy(副的)
care
manager
at
St
Anthony's
residential
care
home
in
Watford,
part
of
RMD
Care.
There
she
works
alongside
other
Romanian
people,
and
care
workers
from
Indian,
Sri
Lanka
and
Kenya.
Her
most
recent
trial
has
been
keeping
coronavirus(冠状病毒）out
of
the
home,
so
far
successfully.
She
said
that
given
the
difficulty
of
taking
on
care
workers,
European
workers
have
helped
create
stability
in
the
workforce.
Staff
turnover
rates
in
adult
social
care
currently
stand
at
about
30%
a
year.
“The
government
should
do
their
research
and
find
out
who
does
these
jobs
and
understand
the
risk
of
taking
this
decision.
The
risk
is
that
there
won't
be
enough
staff
to
look
after
the
people
in
need,"
she
said.

In
2015,
researchers
from
Australia's
Deakin
University
published
one
of
the
first
studies
measuring
food's
physical
effect
on
the
left
hippocampus(海马体),
a
seahorse-shaped
brain
region
crucial
for
memory,
learning,
and
decision
making.
It
is
also
one
of
the
first
areas
to
shrink
in
people
with
Alzheimer's
disease
and
other
forms
of
dementia
(痴呆).255
people
filled
out
diet
surveys
and
then
underwent
MRI
scans(磁共振扫描成像)
that
measured
their
brains.
Four
years
later,
they
returned
for
another
scan
in
response
to
a
request
from
the
researchers.
The
study
found
that
the
left
hippocampus
was
bigger
and
heavier
in
the
healthy
eaters
than
in
the
unhealthy
ones,
regardless
of
age,
sex,
weight,
exercise
habits,
or
general
health.
That
means
eating
the
right
foods
and
skipping
the
wrong
stuff
could
help
protect
against
declines
in
thinking
and
memory
that
lead
to
dementia.
Healthy
eating
doesn't
just
prevent
brain
decline.
It
raises
scores
on
thinking
and
memory
tests,
according
to
a
study
published
in
March
2019
that
tracked
2,621
American
women
and
men
for
30
years."Green
leafy
vegetables
have
good
effects
that
may
protect
both
females
and
males
against
cognitive(认知的）decline
and
dementia,"
says
lead
researcher
Claire
McEvoy,
RD,
of
the
Centre
for
Public
Health
at
Queen's
University
Belfast
in
Northern
Ireland.
Even
a
little
healthy
food
goes
a
long
way.
According
to
a
2018
Rush
University
study
that
tracked
960
people
for
4.7
years,
participants
who
ate
just
1.3
extra
servings
of
green
leafy
vegetables
a
day
showed
cognitive
abilities
similar
to
those
of
people
11
years
younger.
How
are
these
power
foods
working
with
your
brain
cells?
Animal
and
test-tube
experiments
suggest
that
compounds
in
healthy
diets
help
new
cells
make
copies
of
DNA
when
they
divide
and
multiply.
Meanwhile,
high-fat,
high-sugar
processed
foods
harm
brain
cells.
While
food
serves
as
an
important
brain
protector,
experts
say
brain
supplements(补品)aren't
all
that
effective.
Studies
show
that
they
don't
make
brain
cells
active
in
a
significantly
positive
way.＂Let
the
buyer
be
cautious,"
says
David
Hogan,
MD,
a
specialist
at
the
University
of
Calgary.A
study
of
nootropics(益智药)
in
the
November
2019
Journal
of
the
American
Medical
Association
revealed
that
the
unapproved
drug-piracetam(乙酰胺吡咯烷酮)
was
found
in
four
out
of
five
brands
tested,
at
levels
that
could
cause
side
effects
such
as
depression.
12
Why
did
the
researchers
have
the
255
people
return
for
another
MRI
scan
four
years
later?
A.
To
test
whether
they
had
Alzheimer's
disease.
B.
To
see
what
effects
diets
had
on
the
left
hippocampus.
C.
To
study
how
they
kept
healthy
in
the
four
years.
D.
To
deepen
their
research
into
Alzheimer's
disease.
13.
What
can
we
infer
from
Paragraph
2?
A.
Healthy
eating
helps
to
reduce
the
risk
of
dementia.
B.
Unhealthy
diet
is
a
major
contributing
factor
in
cognitive
decline.
C.
Age
and
sex
have
nothing
to
do
with
our
general
health.
D.
Plant-based
diets
have
greater
effects
on
women
than
men.
14.
Which
of
the
following
would
David
Hogan
most
probably
agree
with?
A.
Brain
supplements
are
as
helpful
as
healthy
diets.
B.
We'd
better
take
brain
supplements
for
convenience.
C.
We
should
be
careful
when
taking
brain
supplements.
D.

第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Have
you
ever
had
someone
tell
you
"If
you
eat
before
bed,
you
are
more
likely
to
get
fat!"?
___16___This
belief
originated
when
researchers
found
the
relation
between
individuals
snacking
late
at
night
and
having
a
BMI
that
categorizes
them
as
obese(肥胖的）。
Is
eating
late
at
night,
especially
after
8
pm,
really
going
to
make
you
gain
weight?
One
theory
is
that
your
metabolism(新陈代谢）
slows
down
when
you
are
asleep.___17___
Thus
the
calories
you
eat
right
before
bed
would
not
be
burned
off
as
much
as
they
would
be
while
you're
awake.
Although
the
science
seems
pretty
sound,
recent
studies
have
shown
that
metabolism
changes
very
little,
if
at
all,
while
you
are
asleep.
___18___
The
heart
is
still
beating,
lungs
are
still
working,
and
the
brain
is
still
very
active.
All
of
these
actions
take
energy,
meaning
while
we
are
asleep,
we
are
still
burning
calories.
___19___As
we
know,
one
physiological
effect
of
insulin(胰岛素）is
storing
fat.
Food
being
consumed
late
at
night
will
more
likely
be
stored
away
due
to
the
higher
levels
of
insulin
present
in
the
blood
system.
However,
insulin
levels
at
night
are
shown
to
be
no
different
than
insulin
levels
during
mid-day.
If
it
is
true
that
eating
with
high
insulin
levels
causes
you
to
gain
weight,
anyone
eating
anytime
after
the
morning
will
become
fat.
So
how
come
individuals
have
higher
BMI
s
when
they
snack
at
night?
It
is
simply
a
result
of
eating
too
many
calories.
Snacks
that
individuals
tend
to
eat
during
the
night
are
usually
high
in
sugar
and
calories,
such
as
ice
cream,
candy,
potato
chips
and
soft
drinks.
Put
simply,
if
you
eat
more
calories
than
you
burn,regardless
of
the
time
of
the
day,
you
will
gain
weight.
___20___
A.
With
a
slow
metabolism,
few
calories
are
being
burned.
B.
While
asleep,
your
body
still
functions
in
many
ways.
C.
All
living
matter
undergoes
a
process
of
metabolism.
D.
The
time
these
snacks
are
consumed
does
not
matter.
E.
Without
ever
questioning
it,
people
quickly
assume
this
to
be
true.
F.
Besides,
insulin
levels
are
dramatically
lower
in
the
morning
than
at
night.
G.
Another
theory
is
that
late-night
snacking
leads
to
rising
insulin
levels.

The
town
of
Paradise
has
suffered
a
fire,
which
lasted
17
days
and
caused
a
loss
of
$16.5
billion.
As
a
result,
the
beautifully
named
place
___21___
its
beauty.
Shane
Grammer,Creative
Director
for
Disney'
s
theme
parks
in
Los
Angeles,paid
close
attention
to
the
news
of
the
fire's
deadly
path.
In
fact,
he
felt
quite
___22___
to
help
when
seeing
the
picture
shared
by
his
friend,
in
which
only
a
white
chimney
of
his
house
___23___
after
the
fire.
“I've
got
to
___24___
that
chimney,"
he
said."I'm
not
trying
to
say
anything.
It's
just
that
I'm
an
artist.And
it
was
a(n)
___25___for
me
to
express
myself
and
be
an
artist,wasn't
it?”
Grammer
spent
three
hours
spray-painting
the
image
of
a
woman
on
the
chimney
in
black
and
white,which
was
___26___
mysterious.
Perhaps
it
served
as
a(n)
___27___
of
the
beauty
of
life
or
just
life
itself.
Then
Grammer
put
its
picture
on
social
media.
On
seeing
it,
the
victims
of
the
fire
could
not
___28___
themselves."Beautiful
and
impressive,"
one
of
them
remarked.
And
another
said,
“You
bring
beauty
and
___29___”
At
this
time,Grammer
became
aware
that
something
____30____
had
been
transformed
by
a
purely
artistic
expression."When
the
first
mural(壁画）moved
so
many
people,I
knew
I
had
to
____31____,"he
told
the
journalist.
Grammer
returned
to
Paradise
eight
times
in
three
months,
____32____which
he
completed
17
murals
of
victims
and
other
figures.
Today,Grammer's
efforts
have
____33____
into
a
movement.
He
has
also
painted
murals
in
dark
places
around
the
world
that
seriously
need
some
light.
Ironically,
the
first
painting,
on
the
chimney
in
Paradise,existed
for
just
several
months,
____34____the
bulldozer(推土机）was
a
merciless
art
critic.But
Grammer
couldn't
be
more
pleased
about
it,which
means
the
spirit
of
Paradise
is

If
everyone
on
your
team

hours,
you
may
be
getting
emails
and
messages
at
all
hours
of
the
day,
night
or
weekend,
___36___can
create
an
always
available,or
"always-on”
environment.
That
might
be
necessary
in
some
___37___(industry)
during
these
challenging
times,
___38___certainly
not
in
every
industry
and
not
for
everyone
in
any
industry.
However,
once
this
takes
root
in
your
company
culture,
it
becomes
difficult,
if
not
impossible,
___39___(change)
later.And
"always-on”
is
not
sustainable(可持续的）．It
increases
pressure
and
____40____(quick)
turns
your
company
___41___
an
unpleasant
place
to
work.
It
might
even
cause
the
most

____42____(employ)
to
consider

how
can
you
accommodate
your
workers'
needs
while
still

A
long
time
ago,
there
was
a
happy
prince
and
princess
in
a
country.
They
took
care
of
and
loved
each
other
very
much,
and
their
country
was
happy,
too.
Therefore
they
didn't
envy
anything
else.
There
was
one
thing
they
worried
about.
They
wanted
to
make
sure
they
could
live
happily
forever
like
this.
One
day,
one
of
the
officials
found
out
the
couple's
worry
and
told
them,
“Prince,
I
heard
that
there
is
a
magic
charm(吉祥饰物)，and
it
can
protect
you
from
any
unfortunate
event.
If
you
always
carry
the
magic
charm
with
you,
your
fear
and
worry
will
disappear.”
“Is
it
true?
Where
can
I
find
that
charm?”
The
prince
asked
him
joyfully.
“There
is
an
old
man
in
the
forest,
and
he
knows
about
everything.
You
can
ask
him.”
The
couple
visited
the
old
man,
and
asked
for
help
with
their
worries
and
fears.
The
old
man
nodded
his
head
as
if
he
knew
everything
and
said,
“Travel
all
around
the
world.
Then,
when
you
meet
a
very
happy
couple,
ask
them
to
cut
a
piece
of
their
underwear.
If
you
keep
the
piece
of
the
underwear,
your
fear
and
worry
will
go
away.”
The
couple
appreciated
the
old
man's
kindness
and
set
out
on
the
journey.
The
couple
wandered
around
everywhere
and
heard
about
a
happy
knight
(骑士)
and
his
wife
in
a
town.
They
went
to
visit
the
knight.
“Are
you
really
happy
like
the
rumor?”
Then
the
knight
answered.
“Of
course,
we
are,
Prince.
But
our
only
worry
and
problem
is
that
we
didn't
have
any
children.”
They
had
to
find
an
absolutely
happy
couple,
so
they
continued
their
journey.
They
visited
a
happy
couple
who
were
famous
for
their
happiness
in
the
next
town.
And
they
asked
the
couple
if
they
were
really
happy.
The
couple
answered.
“Yes,
we
are
very
happy.
But
we
have
too
many
children.
A
mother
with
a
large
family
of
children
never
has
a
peaceful
day.
We
worry
too
much
about
our
children.”
They
could
not
get
a
magic
charm
this
time
too,
and
kept
going
on
their
trip.
It
was
very
hard
to
find
the
happiest
couple
in
the
world.
One
day,
the
prince
couple
met
a
shepherd(牧羊人)and
his
wife
in
a
big
field.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Feeling
disappointed
and
tired
out,
the
prince
couple
decided
to
go
back.

B
Having
met
only
weeks
before,climbers
Edmund
Hillary
and
Tenzing
Norgay
shook
hands
before
hugging
each
other
in
a
moment
that
would
put
their
names
in
history
books
forever.
They
were
on
top
of
the
world-literally.After
five
hours
of
continuous
climbing
the
two
first
climbed
to
the
top
of
Mount
Everest,
the
highest
spot
on
Earth.
As
the
ultimate
climbing
goal
for
them
both
and
the
dream
of
most
climbers,
they
had
just
15
minutes
to
absorb
the
experience
of
being
at
8,848
metres
above
sea
level.
Any
longer
and
they
may
not
have
made
it
back
to
camp
to
tell
the
tale.
With
this
in
mind,
the
pair
spent
some
of
their
precious
minutes
searching
the
area
for
signs
of
those
who
had
been
before
them.
The
bodies
of
two
previous
Everest
hopefuls-Andrew
Irvine
and
George
Mallory
of
the
1924
attempt-were
in
the
thoughts
of
Norgay
and
Hillary.However,
they
could
find
no
sign
of
them
having
reached
the
top.
Everest
has
been
responsible
for
claiming
over
300
lives
and
endangering
many
others,
as
it
poses
huge
and
unpredictable
challenges,with
high
altitudes(海拔）putting
immense
tension
on
human
biology
and
with
its
icy
land
making
each
step
a
risk.
When
the
climbers
made
it
back
to
camp
and
the
news
spread,
global
admiration
and
fame
poured
in.
Norgay
and
Hillary
were
determined
to
be
the
first
to
conquer
the
world's
highest
mountain.
They
had
done
it.
At
the
time
they
believed
that
the
box
had
been
ticked
and
no
one
else
would
put
themselves
through
the
danger
to
repeat
their
achievement.
They
couldn't
have
been
more
wrong.
Today
hundreds
of
people
choose
to
follow
in
their
footsteps
every
year.
In
contrast
to
the
total
isolation(孤立）
felt
on
the
first
successful
journey,
during
times
of
ideal
weather
conditions,queues
form
up
to
the
mountain's
summit.
This
creates
dangerous
standstills
(停滞）in
the
mountain's
most
deadly
zones.
Whether
you
believe
these
adventurers
to
be
brave,
admirable
or
out
of
their
minds,
it
is
clear
that
Hillary
and
Norgay
have
provided
knowledge
and
inspiration
for
many
to
find
out
how
it
feels
to
truly
be
on
top
of
the
world.

D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了Edmund
Hillary和Tenzing
Norgay成为成功登顶埃佛勒斯峰的事件。
【详解】1.细节理解题。根据第二段第一句话“With
this
in
mind,
the
pair
spent
some
of
their
precious
minutes
searching
the
area
for
signs
of
those
who
had
been
before
them.
”（带着这个想法，这两个人用他们宝贵的几分钟在这个区域搜寻了在他们之前来到这里的人的痕迹。）可知，Edmund
Hillary和Tenzing
Norgay尝试寻找了之前的攀登者的痕迹。故选C。
2.推理判断题。根据第二段第二句话“The
bodies
of
two
previous
Everest
hopefuls-Andrew
Irvine
and
George
Mallory
of
the
1924
attempt-were
in
the
thoughts
of
Norgay
and
Hillary.”（两个之前在1924年尝试的攀登者Andrew
Irvine和George
Mallory的尸体出现在Norgay和Hillary的脑海里）可知，Andrew
Irvine和George
Mallory是在攀登埃佛勒斯峰时死去的。故选B。
3.词义猜测题。根据第三段第一句话“Everest
has
been
responsible
for
claiming
over
300
lives
and
endangering
many
others,
as
it
poses
huge
and
unpredictable
challenges”（埃佛勒斯峰夺走了300多人的生命并使很多人濒临险境，因为它设置了巨大而不可预知的挑战）可知，极高的海拔（high
altitudes）是对人体的生理机制造成了巨大的张力，所以immense意为“巨大的”。故选A。
4.细节理解题。根据倒第二段最后一句话“
In
contrast
to
the
total
isolation(孤立）
felt
on
the
first
successful
journey,
during
times
of
ideal
weather
conditions,queues
form
up
to
the
mountain's
summit.
This
creates
dangerous
standstills
(停滞）in
the
mountain's
most
deadly
zones.”和第一次的成功攀登时的完全孤立不同，在理想的气候条件下，攀登者会排着队向山顶前进，这会在山上的致命地带造成停滞危险。故选D。
C
Veronica
Vorobet
learned
about
caring
in
her
home
country
of
Romania
by
nursing
her
grandparents.
In
2013,
after
their
deaths,
she
moved
to
England
to
find
a
job
using
the
freedom
provided
by
EU
(European
Union)membership.
Vorobet,
36,
is
one
of
a
quarter
of
a
million
care
workers
who
are
not
UK
citizens,
a
rising
percentage
of
whom
have
come
from
the
EU
in
recent
years.They
have
become
an
essential
part
of
a
low-paid
workforce
that
is
constantly
understaffed(人手不足的），with
about
120,000
unoccupied
positions.
Yesterday,
she
expressed
disappointment
with
the
announcement
that
there
would
be
no
special
treatment
for
carers
coming
into
the
UK
after
Brexit
-British
exit
from
the
EU.
“I
want
to
see
people
treated
the
way
I
want
to
be
treated
and
to
make
a
difference
in
people's
lives,
making
a
feeling
of
home
for
everyone,”
she
told
the
Guardian.
“The
foreign
workers
are
important
in
this.
They
are
able
to
work
under
a
lot
of
stress
and
long
hours.
In
my
country
we
are
very
close
to
our
elderly
people
and
that
is
what
we
show
here.
We
try
to
be
close
to
them
and
respect
their
wishes."
She
said
her
approach
was
to
treat
residents
as
if
they
were
her
own
grandparents
and
provide
similar
levels
of
“support
and
love.”
When
she
arrived
in
the
UK,
Vorobet
started
as
a
junior
care
worker
on
minimum
wage
in
a
home
for
older
people
in
Petersfield,
Hampshire.
Seven
years
on
and
having
studied
for
an
NVQ
in
health
and
social
care,
she
is
a
deputy(副的)
care
manager
at
St
Anthony's
residential
care
home
in
Watford,
part
of
RMD
Care.
There
she
works
alongside
other
Romanian
people,
and
care
workers
from
Indian,
Sri
Lanka
and
Kenya.
Her
most
recent
trial
has
been
keeping
coronavirus(冠状病毒）out
of
the
home,
so
far
successfully.
She
said
that
given
the
difficulty
of
taking
on
care
workers,
European
workers
have
helped
create
stability
in
the
workforce.
Staff
turnover
rates
in
adult
social
care
currently
stand
at
about
30%
a
year.
“The
government
should
do
their
research
and
find
out
who
does
these
jobs
and
understand
the
risk
of
taking
this
decision.
The
risk
is
that
there
won't
be
enough
staff
to
look
after
the
people
in
need,"
she
said.
8.
Why
does
the
author
mention

about
120,000
unoccupied
positions"
in
Paragraph

A.
To
predict
the
future
workforce
in
the
UK.
B.

show
the
importance
of
foreign
carers
in
the
UK.
D.
To
reveal
foreign
carers'
determination
to
stay
in
the
UK.

B
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。通过一位女护工的经历以及介绍，向我们描述了从欧盟到英国的护工的现实情况。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Vorobet,
36,
is
one
of
a
quarter
of
a
million
care
workers
who
are
not
UK

become
an
essential
part
of
a
low-paid

that
is
constantly
understaffed,
with
about
120,000
unoccupied

about
120,000
unoccupied
positions”，这么多无人从事的职位，说明了虽然这些职业护工比重很大，但是还有这么多职位空缺，进一步强调了国外护工的重要性。故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段Vorobet所说的话“They
are
able
to
work
under
a
lot
of
stress
and
long
hours.
In
my
country
we
are
very
close
to
our
elderly
people
and
that
is
what
we
show
here.
We
try
to
be
close
to
them
and
respect
their
wishes.”（他们能够在强压下工作很长时间。在他们自己的国家，他们亲近老人，在这里也是一样。他们努力地亲近老人并且尊重他们的意愿。）可知，Vorobet认为这些护工非常努力工作并且很体贴。故选A项。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“Yesterday,
she
expressed
disappointment
with
the
announcement
that
there
would
be
no
special
treatment
for
carers
coming
into
the
UK
after
Brexit
-British
exit
from
the
EU.”（昨天，她表达了对这个公告的失望，公告指出，在英国退出欧盟后，对于来到英国的护工，不会有特殊的待遇。）和最后一段中“The
government
should
do
their
research
and
find
out
who
does
these
jobs
and
understand
the
risk
of
taking
this
decision.
The
risk
is
that
there
won't
be
enough
staff
to
look
after
the
people
in
need”（政府应当研究一下，搞清楚是谁做了这些工作，并且要知道这个决定的风险。风险就是，将没有足够的人员来照看那些需要照顾的人。）可知，这个决定是由政府作出的，并且这个决定会造成劳动力缺失。由此可知，this
decision就是上文政府发出的公告，即外来护工不会有特殊待遇。故选C项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。本文第二段通过列举数据表明了来自欧盟的护工的重要地位。第三段通过政府公告表述了这些护工的待遇。第四，五，六段描述了这些护工的工作情况以及贡献。综上可知，本文主要目的是向我们展示了这些欧盟护工目前的情况。故选B项。

In
2015,
researchers
from
Australia's
Deakin
University
published
one
of
the
first
studies
measuring
food's
physical
effect
on
the
left
hippocampus(海马体),
a
seahorse-shaped
brain
region
crucial
for
memory,
learning,
and
decision
making.
It
is
also
one
of
the
first
areas
to
shrink
in
people
with
Alzheimer's
disease
and
other
forms
of
dementia
(痴呆).255
people
filled
out
diet
surveys
and
then
underwent
MRI
scans(磁共振扫描成像)
that
measured
their
brains.
Four
years
later,
they
returned
for
another
scan
in
response
to
a
request
from
the
researchers.
The
study
found
that
the
left
hippocampus
was
bigger
and
heavier
in
the
healthy
eaters
than
in
the
unhealthy
ones,
regardless
of
age,
sex,
weight,
exercise
habits,
or
general
health.
That
means
eating
the
right
foods
and
skipping
the
wrong
stuff
could
help
protect
against
declines
in
thinking
and
memory
that
lead
to
dementia.
Healthy
eating
doesn't
just
prevent
brain
decline.
It
raises
scores
on
thinking
and
memory
tests,
according
to
a
study
published
in
March
2019
that
tracked
2,621
American
women
and
men
for
30
years."Green
leafy
vegetables
have
good
effects
that
may
protect
both
females
and
males
against
cognitive(认知的）decline
and
dementia,"
says
lead
researcher
Claire
McEvoy,
RD,
of
the
Centre
for
Public
Health
at
Queen's
University
Belfast
in
Northern
Ireland.
Even
a
little
healthy
food
goes
a
long
way.
According
to
a
2018
Rush
University
study
that
tracked
960
people
for
4.7
years
participants
who
ate
just
1.3
extra
servings
of
green
leafy
vegetables
a
day
showed
cognitive
abilities
similar
to
those
of
people
11
years
younger.
How
are
these
power
foods
working
with
your
brain
cells?
Animal
and
test-tube
experiments
suggest
that
compounds
in
healthy
diets
help
new
cells
make
copies
of
DNA
when
they
divide
and
multiply.
Meanwhile,
high-fat,
high-sugar
processed
foods
harm
brain
cells.
While
food
serves
as
an
important
brain
protector,
experts
say
brain
supplements(补品)aren't
all
that
effective.
Studies
show
that
they
don't
make
brain
cells
active
in
a
significantly
positive
way.＂Let
the
buyer
be
cautious,"
says
David
Hogan,
MD,
a
specialist
at
the
University
of
Calgary.A
study
of
nootropics(益智药)
in
the
November
2019
Journal
of
the
American
Medical
Association
revealed
that
the
unapproved
drug-piracetam(乙酰胺吡咯烷酮)
was
found
in
four
out
of
five
brands
tested,
at
levels
that
could
cause
side
effects
such
as
depression.
12.
Why
did
the
researchers
have
the
255
people
return
for
another
MRI
scan
four
years
later?
A.
To
test
whether
they
had
Alzheimer's
disease.
B.
To
see
what
effects
diets
had
on
the
left
hippocampus.
C.
To
study
how
they
kept
healthy
in
the
four
years.
D.
To
deepen
their
research
into
Alzheimer's
disease.
13.
What
can
we
infer
from
Paragraph
2?
A.
Healthy
eating
helps
to
reduce
the
risk
of
dementia.
B.
Unhealthy
diet
is
a
major
contributing
factor
in
cognitive
decline.
C.
Age
and
sex
have
nothing
to
do
with
our
general
health.
D.
Plant-based
diets
have
greater
effects
on
women
than
men.
14.
Which
of
the
following
would
David
Hogan
most
probably
agree
with?
A.
Brain
supplements
are
as
helpful
as
healthy
diets.
B.
We'd
better
take
brain
supplements
for
convenience.
C.
We
should
be
careful
when
taking
brain
supplements.
D.
Brain
supplements
have
as
many
side
effects
as
processed
foods.
15.
What
might
be
the
best
title
for
the
passage?
A.
Yes
to
Green
Leafy
Vegetables
B.
Yes
to
Nootropics
C.
No
to

第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Have
you
ever
had
someone
tell
you
"If
you
eat
before
bed,
you
are
more
likely
to
get
fat!"?
___16___This
belief
originated
when
researchers
found
the
relation
between
individuals
snacking
late
at
night
and
having
a
BMI
that
categorizes
them
as
obese(肥胖的）。
Is
eating
late
at
night,
especially
after
8
pm,
really
going
to
make
you
gain
weight?
One
theory
is
that
your
metabolism(新陈代谢）
slows
down
when
you
are
asleep.___17___
Thus
the
calories
you
eat
right
before
bed
would
not
be
burned
off
as
much
as
they
would
be
while
you're
awake.
Although
the
science
seems
pretty
sound,
recent
studies
have
shown
that
metabolism
changes
very
little,
if
at
all,
while
you
are
asleep.
___18___
The
heart
is
still
beating,
lungs
are
still
working,
and
the
brain
is
still
very
active.
All
of
these
actions
take
energy,
meaning
while
we
are
asleep,
we
are
still
burning
calories.
___19___As
we
know,
one
physiological
effect
of
insulin(胰岛素）is
storing
fat.
Food
being
consumed
late
at
night
will
more
likely
be
stored
away
due
to
the
higher
levels
of
insulin
present
in
the
blood
system.
However,
insulin
levels
at
night
are
shown
to
be
no
different
than
insulin
levels
during
mid-day.
If
it
is
true
that
eating
with
high
insulin
levels
causes
you
to
gain
weight,
anyone
eating
anytime
after
the
morning
will
become
fat.
So
how
come
individuals
have
higher
BMI
s
when
they
snack
at
night?
It
is
simply
a
result
of
eating
too
many
calories.
Snacks
that
individuals
tend
to
eat
during
the
night
are
usually
high
in
sugar
and
calories,
such
as
ice
cream,
candy,
potato
chips
and
soft
drinks.
Put
simply,
if
you
eat
more
calories
than
you
burn,regardless
of
the
time
of
the
day,
you
will
gain
weight.
___20___
A.
With
a
slow
metabolism,
few
calories
are
being
burned.
B.
While
asleep,
your
body
still
functions
in
many
ways.
C.
All
living
matter
undergoes
a
process
of
metabolism.
D.
The
time
these
snacks
are
consumed
does
not
matter.
E.
Without
ever
questioning
it,
people
quickly
assume
this
to
be
true.
F.
Besides,
insulin
levels
are
dramatically
lower
in
the
morning
than
at
night.
G.
Another
theory
is
that
late-night
snacking
leads
to
rising
insulin
levels.
【答案】16.
E
17.
A
18.
B
19.
G
20.
D
【解析】
本文是说明文。文章通过常听到的一句话“睡前吃东西会胖！”这一观点引出两种理论：1.睡着时，代谢比较慢；2.睡着时，胰岛素分泌较多。最后得出晚上吃零食体重指数会更高是由于摄入太多卡路里，并且和吃零食的时间没有关系。
【16题详解】
上文“Have
you
ever
had
someone
tell
you
"If
you
eat
before
bed,
you
are
more
likely
to
get
fat"?（是否曾有人告诉你“如果你睡前吃东西，你更容易发胖”？）”及下文“This
belief
originated
when
researchers
found
the
relation
between
individuals
snacking
late
at
night
and
having
a
BMI
that
categorizes
them
as
obese.（当研究人员发现人们在深夜吃零食和体重指数间的关系时,这一观点就产生了。）”可知，下文所说的“This
belief
”指的就是前文提出问题之后，所给出的相关肯或否的回答。E项中的“Without
ever
questioning
it”就是对上文问题的肯定回答，“people
quickly
assume
this
to
be
true.”和下文用深夜零食和体重指数的关系来解释人们为什么认为这是真的一致。故选E项。
【17题详解】
上文“One
theory
is
that
your
metabolism(新陈代谢）
slows
down
when
you
are
asleep.（一种理论认为，当你睡着时，你的新陈代谢会减慢。）”以及下文“Thus
the
calories
you
eat
right
before
bed
would
not
be
burned
off
as
much
as
they
would
be
while
you're
awake.（因此，睡前摄入的卡路里不会像清醒时那样被消耗掉。）”可知，设空处用来说明新陈代谢减慢和卡路里之间的关系，起到承上启下的作用。A项前半句“With
a
slow
metabolism”承接上文所讲的新陈代谢减慢，后半句“few
calories
are
being
burned”引出下文所说的卡路里。故选A项。
【18题详解】
上文“metabolism
changes
very
little,
if
at
all,
while
you
are
asleep.（当你睡着的时候，如果有新陈代谢的话，变化也很小。）”以及下文“The
heart
is
still
beating,
lungs
are
still
working,
and
the
brain
is
still
very
active.（心脏还在跳动，肺还在工作，大脑仍然非常活跃。）”可知，设空处为睡着时，新陈代谢和身体机能的关系。B项前半句“While
asleep”承接上文睡着时这一前提，后半句“your
body
still
functions
in
many
ways.”引出下文各项身体器官的机能。故选B项。
【19题详解】
根据文章行文逻辑及前文已经提及的“One
theory
is
…（一个理论是……）”以及下文“As
we
know,
one
physiological
effect
of
insulin
is
storing
fat.（众所周知，胰岛素的一个生理作用是储存脂肪）”说明设空处为另一种和胰岛素相关的理论。G项中“Another
theory
is…”和上文One
theory
is
相对应，“that
late-night
snacking
leads
to
rising
insulin
levels”和下文所提胰岛素和脂肪关系一致。故选G项。
【20题详解】
上文“if
you
eat
more
calories
than
you
burn,
regardless
of
the
time
of
the
day,
you
will
gain
weight.（如果你摄入的卡路里比你燃烧的多，不管一天中的哪个时间，你的体重都会增加）”说明卡路里摄入多于燃烧时就会长胖，与摄入时间无关。D项“The
time
these
snacks
are
consumed
does
not
matter.”与上文一致，说明吃这些零食的时间并不重要。故选D项。

【解析】
这是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了艺术家Shane
Grammer在大火过后天堂镇的断壁残垣上进行涂鸦画创作的故事。
【21题详解】
考查动词词义辨析。句意：结果，这个有着美好名字的地方失去了它的美丽。A.
destroyed破坏，毁灭；B.
created创造；C.
witnessed见证；D.
lost失去。根据首句“The
town
of
Paradise
has
suffered
a
fire,
which
lasted
17
days
and
caused
a
loss
of
$16.5
billion.”可知天堂镇遭受了一场持续17天、造成严重损失的大火，也就是这个地方因大火失去了它原有的美丽，故选D。
【22题详解】
考查形容词词义辨析。句意：事实上，当看到朋友分享的照片时，他是感到相当无力回天的。A.
powerless无能为力的，无力回天的；B.
enthusiastic热情的；C.
urgent紧急的，迫切的；D.
reluctant不情愿的。根据后面从句内容“in
which
only
a
white
chimney
of
his
house
___3___
after
the
fire.”可知，大火过后房子只剩下一根白色的烟囱。这样的情景明显让人感到绝望或无能为力，故选A。
【23题详解】
考查动词词义辨析。句意：照片里，大火过后他的房子只剩下一根白色的烟囱。A.
left剩下，离开；B.
remained剩下，留下；C.
disappeared消失；D.
collapsed倒塌。根据语境可直接判断出大火烧完“剩下”一根烟囱，remained常用于表示遗址、遗迹的留下或剩下，而left是及物动词，要用被动语态。，故选B。
【24题详解】
考查动词词义辨析。句意：“我去到那里，在烟囱上作画。”A.
mend修理，修补；B.
rebuild重建；C.

spray-painting”可知，他是去那里涂鸦作画，故选C。
【25题详解】
考查名词词义辨析。句意：这是我自我表达，成为一名真正的艺术家的（绝佳）机会，难道不是吗？A.
risk风险；B.
opportunity机会；C.
job工作；D.
duty职责，义务。结合上下文，他这样做并不带着任何功利目的，而是把断壁残垣涂鸦作为一次表达自我和追求艺术的机会，B符合语境，注意本题不能误选D，duty强调的是工作上的职责义务，是必须完成的任务使命，并不契合此处语境。综上，故选B。
【26题详解】

strikingly醒目地，引人注目地；B.
originally最初，本来；C.
deliberately故意地；D.
accidentally意外地。在仅剩的一根烟囱上作画，这肯定十分醒目，此处用“副词+形容词”的结构（strikingly
mysterious）表达“既醒目，又神秘”，A符合语境，他的作画并不带着强烈的功利目的，C项的“故作神秘”不符合语境。故选A。
【27题详解】

label标签，商标；B.
object目标，物体；C.

A.
hope希望；B.
mystery谜题，神秘；C.
entertainment娱乐；D.
inspiration灵感，鼓舞。这幅废墟上的涂鸦画让他们看到美好，也看到希望，A符合语境，注意inspiration作不可数名词时可表示“灵感”，作可数名词时表示“鼓舞”，
bring
inspiration只能翻译为带来灵感，不符语境，故选A。
【30题详解】
考查形容词词义辨析。句意：这时候Grammer意识到必须从纯粹的艺术表达转向更深入的内容。A.
brighter更明亮的；B.
higher更高的；C.
bigger更大的；D.
deeper更深入的。根据上下文，第一幅壁画产生了巨大的反响，给大火的受害者带来了希望，已经具有了社会意义，所以必须从纯粹随心所欲的艺术表达转向更为深入的某些东西，故选D。

考查介词用法及定语从句。句意：在这期间，他完成了17幅受害者和其他人物的壁画。A.
to到，向；B.
from从；C.
of属于……的；D.
during在……期间。分析句子结构，“___12___which
he
completed
17
murals
of
victims
and
other
figures.”为非限制性定语从句，先行词是主句末尾处的three
months，表示时期，“在这三个月期间”应为“during
three
months”也即“during
which”，介词during表示在……期间，故选D。
【33题详解】
考查动词短语语义辨析。句意：今天，Grammer的这种艺术成就已经发展成为一种艺术潮流。A.
break
into闯入，破门而入；B.
look

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如何应对全天候工作模式的策略。
【详解】1.考查定语从句。句意：如果你团队里的每个人都在不同的时间工作，你可能会全天一直收到邮件和信息，这就能营造出一种一直在线的环境。在非限制性定语从句中，缺少主语，且代指前面一整句话，故用which。
2.考查名词单复数。句意：在这个具有挑战性的时代，那在某些行业可能是必要的，但是并不是对每一个行业都是必要的，也不是对任何一个行业的每个人是必要的。industry意为“行业”，为可数名词。some（一些）后用名词复数。故填industries。
3.考查关联词。句意：在这个具有挑战性的时代，那在某些行业可能是必要的，但是并不是对每一个行业都是必要的，也不是对任何一个行业的每个人是必要的。前文说这在某些行业可能是必要的，后文说不是对每个行业和任何行业的每个人是必要的，前后句意相反，表示转折，故填but。
4.考查固定搭配。句意：但是，一旦这在你的公司文化里扎根，如果可能的话，之后再改变就会很难。it
is+adj+to
do
sth意为“做某事……”，为固定搭配，it是形式主语，真正的主语用不定式，此处change为真正的主语。故填to
change。
5.考查副词。句意：它增加压力，并且很快将你的公司变成一个不愉快的工作地点。修饰动词turns应用副词。故填quickly。
6.考查介词和固定搭配。句意：它增加压力，并且很快将你的公司变成一个不愉快的工作地点。turn...into/to...意为“把……变成……”，为固定搭配。故填into/to。
7.考查名词。句意：它甚至可能会导致最勤奋的员工考虑其它的工作。根据consider
other
offers可知，考虑其它工作的应该是员工，形容词dedicated修饰名词，作动词cause的宾语，根据句意，用单复数都可以。故填employee(s)。
8.考查省略。句意：所以你怎样才能调节你的员工的需求。同时也保护你的文化和你的团队的工作和生活的平衡呢？while引导的状语从句中，如果从句和主句主语相同，从句中可省略主语和be动词，主语you与protect是主动关系，用现在分词。故填protecting。
9.考查被动语态。句意：在那些时间之外，每个人都应该被鼓励把他们的设置改为“请勿打扰”模式，并且使用他们的邮件客户端的“指定时间发送”，以便信息只在交流时间被发送。so
that引导目的状语从句，deliver是从句谓语动词，动词deliver（发送）和主语messages（信息）构成被动关系，且文章使用一般现在时，故填are
delivered。
10.考查祈使句。句意：如果有任何通信联系必须发生在设定的交流时间之外，比如对于紧急问题，那就只打电话或者发短信。主句中缺少谓语动词，且没有主语，所以主句为祈使句。故填make。

A
long
time
ago,
there
was
a
happy
prince
and
princess
in
a
country.
They
took
care
of
and
loved
each
other
very
much,
and
their
country
was
happy,
too.
Therefore
they
didn't
envy
anything
else.
There
was
one
thing
they
worried
about.
They
wanted
to
make
sure
they
could
live
happily
forever
like
this.
One
day,
one
of
the
officials
found
out
the
couple's
worry
and
told
them,
“Prince,
I
heard
that
there
is
a
magic
charm(吉祥饰物)，and
it
can
protect
you
from
any
unfortunate
event.
If
you
always
carry
the
magic
charm
with
you,
your
fear
and
worry
will
disappear.”
“Is
it
true?
Where
can
I
find
that
charm?”
The
prince
asked
him
joyfully.
“There
is
an
old
man
in
the
forest,
and
he
knows
about
everything.
You
can
ask
him.”
The
couple
visited
the
old
man,
and
asked
for
help
with
their
worries
and
fears.
The
old
man
nodded
his
head
as
if
he
knew
everything
and
said,
“Travel
all
around
the
world.
Then,
when
you
meet
a
very
happy
couple,
ask
them
to
cut
a
piece
of
their
underwear.
If
you
keep
the
piece
of
the
underwear,
your
fear
and
worry
will
go
away.”
The
couple
appreciated
the
old
man's
kindness
and
set
out
on
the
journey.
The
couple
wandered
around
everywhere
and
heard
about
a
happy
knight
(骑士)
and
his
wife
in
a
town.
They
went
to
visit
the
knight.
“Are
you
really
happy
like
the
rumor?”
Then
the
knight
answered.
“Of
course,
we
are,
Prince.
But
our
only
worry
and
problem
is
that
we
didn't
have
any
children.”
They
had
to
find
an
absolutely
happy
couple,
so
they
continued
their
journey.
They
visited
a
happy
couple
who
were
famous
for
their
happiness
in
the
next
town.
And
they
asked
the
couple
if
they
were
really
happy.
The
couple
answered.
“Yes,
we
are
very
happy.
But
we
have
too
many
children.
A
mother
with
a
large
family
of
children
never
has
a
peaceful
day.
We
worry
too
much
about
our
children.”
They
could
not
get
a
magic
charm
this
time
too,
and
kept
going
on
their
trip.
It
was
very
hard
to
find
the
happiest
couple
in
the
world.
One
day,
the
prince
couple
met
a
shepherd(牧羊人)and
his
wife
in
a
big
field.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Feeling
disappointed
and
tired
out,
the
prince
couple
decided
to
go
back.

【答案】One
day,
the
prince
couple
met
a
shepherd
and
his
wife
in
a
big
field.
The
shepherd
was
driving
a
herd
of
sheep,
and
his
wife
took
their
two
children
to
him.
The
moment
the
shepherd
saw
his
family,
he
ran
to
them
directly,
kissing
and
embracing
each
of
them
by
turns.
Knowing
that
this
was
known
to
be
the
happiest
family
they
were
looking
for,
the
prince
couple
approached
them
and
asked
politely
“I
am
sorry,
but
could
you
please
cut
a
piece
of
your
underwear
for
us?”
But
the
happiest
shepherd
couple
felt
confused
and
said
“We
would
like
to
help
you
but
we
don't
wear
any
underwear.”
Feeling
disappointed
and
tired
out,
the
prince
couple
decided
to
go
back.
Immediately
they
returned
to
their
country
they
visited
the
old
wise
man,
saying
that
the
magic
charm
was
nowhere
to
be
found.
The
old
man
smiled
and
said
“Well
is
our
trip
a
vain
effort?”
The
prince
couple
thought
to
themselves
for
a
while
and
finally,
they
realized
that
the
true
magic
charm
was
in
their
mind,
and
happiness
depends
on
themselves.
Then
they
held
hands
firmly
and
looked
in
each
other’s
eyes,
knowing
that
they
would
never
be
unhappy
whatever
came
their
way.

本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了一对幸福相爱的王子和公主为了确保他们能永远幸福地生活，听从林中一位智者的话去寻找魔法的故事。而找到魔法的办法就是在周游世界遇到非常幸福的夫妇时，让他们剪下他们的内衣。在寻找魔法的途中，他们分别遇到了一对幸福但没有孩子的夫妇以及一对幸福但孩子太多的夫妇，他们都有各自担心的问题，最终王子夫妇失望而归的故事。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“一天，王子夫妇在一块大的田野里遇到了一个牧羊人和他的妻子”可知，第一段可描写牧羊人夫妇幸福生活的场景，以及这次王子夫妇依然没能得到魔法的原因。
②由第二段首句内容“感到失望和疲惫，王子夫妇决定回去。”可知，第二段可描写王子夫妇失落回国后去拜访智者，智者为其指点的话以及王子夫妇得到的感悟。
2.续写线索：寻找魔法——没孩子的骑士夫妇——孩子太多的夫妇——两个孩子，但没有内衣的牧羊人夫妇——失望而归——指点感悟。
