A
On
Nov
2,Williams-Cole,
a
senior
interdisciplinary(跨学科的)major,
sworn
in
(宣誓就职)
as
the
mayor
of
Camp
Hill,
Alabama,
US,
making
him
the
youngest
person
in
history
to
hold
the
office,
according
to
WVTM
13,
an
NBC
affiliate(分支机构).
Williams-Cole
was
prompted(促使)
to
run
for
mayor
because
he
wanted
to
bring
changes
to
his
hometown,
a
town
of
less
than
1000
people.
The
citizens
of
Camp
Hill
have
seen
a
sad
decline
of
their
town
with
many
empty
storefronts,
trees
growing
inside
what
used
to
be
businesses
and
weeds
sprouting(发芽)
from
sidewalks,
according
to
WSFA
12
News,
Alabama’s
source.
“My
main
things
is
to
create
a
foundation
and
clear
up
any
debts
we
have
to
get
our
town
financially
stable.”
Williams-Cole
told
Auburn
University.
“
While
doing
that,
I
want
to
carry
out
things
that
will
increase
unity
in
the
town,
like
doing
quarterly
town
hall
meetings
that
are
more
informal
and
that
celebrate
the
community.
We
need
to
open
up
the
floor
for
people
to
complain
if
they
want,
because
they
have
the
right
to
do
that
as
taxpayers.”
Williams-Cole
has
designed
a
detailed
schedule
so
that
he
would
have
enough
time
for
both
his
studies
and
his
duties
as
a
mayor.
He
hopes
to
use
his
education
and
his
position
as
mayor
to
help
other
people,
especially
children.
He
said
he
would
want
to
become
an
administrator
at
a
boarding
school,
which
gives
children
holistic(全面的)
learning
that
is
essential
to
contemporary
society.
“Cole
is
different.”
Mike
Fellows,
Lee
County
Circuit
Court
Judge,
told
Auburn
University.”
“He’s
obviously
willing
to
do
a
lot
of
extra
work
to
serve
his
community.
He
cares
enough
to
do
it,
and
I
think
that
says
a
lot
about
him.”
The
young
man
is
set
to
graduate
in
May
2021.
He
plans
to
attend
either
grad
school
or
law
school,
news
outlet
CBS
reported.

B
Everyone
has
a
phone
in
their
pocket
nowadays,
but
how
often
do
we
really
use
them
for
their
original
purpose—to
make
a
call?
Telephone
culture
is
disappearing.
What
brought
us
to
this
moment,
and
what
are
its
effects?
“No
one
picks
up
the
phone
anymore,”
wrote
Alex
C.
Madrigal
on
The
Atlantic.
“The
reflex
(习惯性动作)
of
answering—20th-century
telephonic
culture—is
gone.”
The
shift
is
of
course
due
in
large
part
to
more
communication
options:
Texting
with
photos,
videos,
emojis,
reaction
gifs,
links
and
even
voice
messages
can
be
a
more
attractive
option.
Texting
is
light
and
fun,
not
nearly
as
demanding
of
your
attention
as
a
phone
call.
It
can
also
be
done
with
multiple
people
at
the
same
time.
Social
media,
email
and
video
calls
have
also
eaten
away
at
traditional
phone
calls.
In
recent
years,
another
reason
has
caused
people
to
ignore
phone
calls
completely:
robocalls.
Robocalls
are
automate
(自动化的)
messages
from
organizations
verifying
(核实)
your
phone
number
or
telemarketers
trying
to
sell
something.
Americans
received
22.8
billion
robocalls
halfway
through
2020,
equaling
an
annual
rate
of
45.6
billion,
slightly
below
2018
numbers,
according
to
YouMail,
a
robocall
protection
service
and
blocking
app.
As
telephone
culture
disappears,
what
is
the
loss
of
a
singular
family
phone
doing
to
the
family
unit?
Early
landline
phones
unified
family
members,
whereas
mobile
phones
isolate(隔离)
them.
“The
shared
family
phone
served
as
an
anchor
for
home,”
said
Luke
Fernandez,
a
Weber
State
University
computer-science
professor
and
co-author
of
Bored,
Lonely,
Angry,
Stupid:
Feelings
About
Technology,
From
the
Telegraph
to
Twitter.
“With
smart
phones,
we
have
gained
mobility
and
privacy.
But
the
value
of
the
home
has
been
diminished,
as
has
its
ability
to
guide
and
monitor
family
behavior
and
perhaps
connect
families
more
closely,”Fernandez
said.
Of
course,
as
technology
progresses,
lives
always
change
for
better
or
for
worse.
With
the
loss
of
telephone
culture,
families
will
need
to
find
other
ways
to
unite.
4.
What
has
caused
the
traditional
telephone
to
lose
its
appeal
according
to
the
text?
A.
People’s
preference
for
robocalls.
B.
People’s
addiction
to
social
media
C.
People’s
growing
need
for
privacy
D.
People’s
wide
range
of
communication
choices
5
What
can
we
infer
from
Fernandez’s
remark?
A
Smart
phones
make
families
closer.
B.
Smart
phones
help
people
monitor
family
behavior.
C.
The
value
of
home
depends
on
how
phones
are
used.
D
The
use
of
mobile
phone
has
affected
family
bonds.
6.
What
does
the
article
mainly
talk
about?
A.
The
past
and
future
of
telephone
B.
The
development
of
communication
tools.
C.
The
downfall
of
traditional
telephone
culture.
D.
The
relation
between
phone
use
and
family
bonds.
C
Boycotting
(抵制)
has
long
been
used
as
a
political
tool.
In
the
late
18th
century,
it
was
used
to
discourage
the
use
of
products
made
by
slave
labor.
Now
it
is
being
used
to
influence
the
largest
social
media
platform
in
the
world,
Facebook
The
Stop
Hate
for
Profit
campaign
claims
the
platform
doesn’t
do
enough
to
remove
racist
and
hateful
comments
from
its
site.
Already,
this
has
resulted
in
a
series
of
major
companies,
including
Adidas
and
Starbucks,
removing
their
advertising
from
the
platform.
Can
that
boycott
hurt
Facebook?
The
short
answer
is
yes
—
the
vast
majority
of
Facebook's
income
comes
from
ads.
David
Cumming
from
Aviva
Investors
told
the
BBC
that
the
loss
of
trust
could
“destroy
the
business.”
On
Friday,
Facebook's
share
price
dropped
by
8
percent,
making
CEO
Mark
Zuckerberg,
on
paper,
$6
billion
poorer.
But
despite
the
huge
share
price
reduction,
some
believe
this
boycott
will
only
scratch
the
surface.
Apart
from
companies
only
committing
to
the
boycott
for
one
month,
the
biggest
factor
is
much
of
Facebook’s
advertising
income
comes
from
thousands
of
small-
to
medium-sized
businesses,
many
of
which
have
not
signed
up
for
the
boycott.
According
to
CNN,
the
site's
100
highest-spending
brands
only
account
for
6
percent
of
advertising
income.
In
contrast.
smaller
brands
view
social
media
ads
as
the
only
affordable
vehicle
for
mass
exposure.
Though
unable
to
force
a
change,
Zuckerberg
has
shown
sone
signs
of
flexibility
(灵活性)
following
an
announcement
that
the
site
would
begin
to
make
hateful
content.
But
this
pales
compared
to
measures
form
other
sites.
This
year
is
going
to
be
a
rocky
year
for
all
social
media
companies.
If
the
boycott
goes
on
into
the
autumn
and
if
more
and
more
companies
sigh
up
this
could
be
a
defining
year
for
the
social
network.
7.
Why
has
Facebook
been
boycotted?
A.
It
has
been
used
as
a
political
tool.
B.
It
has
posted
many
inappropriate
advertisements.
C.
It
has
launched
the
Stop
Hate
for
Profit
campaign.
D.
It
has
failed
to
manage
discriminatory
posts
on
its
platform.
8.
What
does
the
underlined
sentence
in
Paragraph
3
imply?
A.
Facebook
will
take
measures
to
stop
the
boycott.
B.
Facebook
has
confidence
it
will
restore
its
users’
trust.
C.
Facebook
won’t
be
greatly
influenced
by
the
boycott.
D.
Facebook
hasn’t
been
affected
by
many
smaller
businesses.
9.

does
the
author
think
of
the
measures
Zuckerberg
has
taken?
A.
They
are
not
effective
enough.
B.
They
are
not
flexible
enough.
C.
They
are
better
than
those
taken
by
other
sites.
D.
They
will
help
Facebook
survive
the
boycott.
10.

of
social
networks?

Critical.

Emily
White
was
born
seventeen
years
ago
with
so
many
birth
problems
in
her
body.
Some
of
her
organs,
bones
and
muscles
were
out
of
shape.
No
one
expected
her
to
survive.
She
did
make
it
but
with
her
strange
body
figure,
everyone
could
recognize
her,
even
from
a
distance.
In
Emily
White's
hometown,
there
was
a
yearly
outdoor
performance
in
the
school
auditorium（礼堂）.
It
had
been
performed
for
so
many
years
and
actually
had
become
one
of
the
most
important
events
of
the
Christmas
season
for
many
of
the
town's
people.
Many
people
tried
out
each
year
for
it
but
so
many
were
turned
away.
It
could
only
include
the
most
excellent
people
in
the
field.
Emily
had
a
beautiful
singing
voice.
Last
year
she
went
to
Mrs.
Owens
—
her
music
teacher
to
ask
to
join
in
the
performance.
Without
letting
her
sing,
Mrs.
Owens
took
a
look
at
Amy's
body
and
said,
"Child,
you
just
don't
fit.
Everyone
would
stare
at
you
and
that
would
make
you
uncomfortable.
It
would
make
them
uncomfortable,
too."
Without
singing
a
single
note,
Emily
was
sent
back
through
the
door
of
the
choral（合唱）room.
Hurt
and
upset,
she
decided
never
to
try
out
again.
But
Mrs.
Owens
then
retired.
This
year,
there
came
a
new
music
teacher,
Butler.
He
heard
about
Emily
and
suggested
that
she
have
a
try.
Emily
didn't
want
to
be
rejected
again,
so
she
hesitated
a
little
about
it.
As
Emily
struggled,
the
door
was
pushed
open
and
Mr.
Butler
called,
"Emily,
you're
next."
Although
kind
of
nervous.
Emily
did
as
Mr.
Butler
told
her
to
do.
Mr.
Butler
sat
by
the
piano
to
accompany
Emily.
When
Emily
finished
her
testing
performance,
she
thanked
Mr.
Butler
and
knew
the
result
would
be
posted
on
the
door
of
the
choral
room
the
next
day.
Emily
couldn't
sleep
that
night.
She
was
suffering
from
the
feelings
that
she
didn't
fit
and
the
great
need
to
be
accepted.
By
the
next
morning,
her
stomach
was
even
in
pain
because
of
stress.
Para1:
The
next
day,
Emily
nervously
glanced
at
the
list
on
the
door
of
the
choral
room.

Finally,
the
day
of
performance
came.

A
On
Nov
2,Williams-Cole,
a
senior
interdisciplinary(跨学科的)major,
sworn
in
(宣誓就职)
as
the
mayor
of
Camp
Hill,
Alabama,
US,
making
him
the
youngest
person
in
history
to
hold
the
office,
according
to
WVTM
13,
an
NBC
affiliate(分支机构).
Williams-Cole
was
prompted(促使)
to
run
for
mayor
because
he
wanted
to
bring
changes
to
his
hometown,
a
town
of
less
than
1000
people.
The
citizens
of
Camp
Hill
have
seen
a
sad
decline
of
their
town
with
many
empty
storefronts,
trees
growing
inside
what
used
to
be
businesses
and
weeds
sprouting(发芽)
from
sidewalks,
according
to
WSFA
12
News,
Alabama’s
source.
“My
main
things
is
to
create
a
foundation
and
clear
up
any
debts
we
have
to
get
our
town
financially
stable.”
Williams-Cole
told
Auburn
University.
“
While
doing
that,
I
want
to
carry
out
things
that
will
increase
unity
in
the
town,
like
doing
quarterly
town
hall
meetings
that
are
more
informal
and
that
celebrate
the
community.
We
need
to
open
up
the
floor
for
people
to
complain
if
they
want,
because
they
have
the
right
to
do
that
as
taxpayers.”
Williams-Cole
has
designed
a
detailed
schedule
so
that
he
would
have
enough
time
for
both
his
studies
and
his
duties
as
a
mayor.
He
hopes
to
use
his
education
and
his
position
as
mayor
to
help
other
people,
especially
children.
He
said
he
would
want
to
become
an
administrator
at
a
boarding
school,
which
gives
children
holistic(全面的)
learning
that
is
essential
to
contemporary
society.
“Cole
is
different.”
Mike
Fellows,
Lee
County
Circuit
Court
Judge,
told
Auburn
University.”
“He’s
obviously
willing
to
do
a
lot
of
extra
work
to
serve
his
community.
He
cares
enough
to
do
it,
and
I
think
that
says
a
lot
about
him.”
The
young
man
is
set
to
graduate
in
May
2021.
He
plans
to
attend
either
grad
school
or
law
school,
news
outlet
CBS
reported.

main
things
is
to
create
a

complain
if
they
want,
because
they
have

B
Everyone
has
a
phone
in
their
pocket
nowadays,
but
how
often
do
we
really
use
them
for
their
original
purpose—to
make
a
call?
Telephone
culture
is
disappearing.
What
brought
us
to
this
moment,
and
what
are
its
effects?
“No
one
picks
up
the
phone
anymore,”
wrote
Alex
C.
Madrigal
on
The
Atlantic.
“The
reflex
(习惯性动作)
of
answering—20th-century
telephonic
culture—is
gone.”
The
shift
is
of
course
due
in
large
part
to
more
communication
options:
Texting
with
photos,
videos,
emojis,
reaction
gifs,
links
and
even
voice
messages
can
be
a
more
attractive
option.
Texting
is
light
and
fun,
not
nearly
as
demanding
of
your
attention
as
a
phone
call.
It
can
also
be
done
with
multiple
people
at
the
same
time.
Social
media,
email
and
video
calls
have
also
eaten
away
at
traditional
phone
calls.
In
recent
years,
another
reason
has
caused
people
to
ignore
phone
calls
completely:
robocalls.
Robocalls
are
automate
(自动化的)
messages
from
organizations
verifying
(核实)
your
phone
number
or
telemarketers
trying
to
sell
something.
Americans
received
22.8
billion
robocalls
halfway
through
2020,
equaling
an
annual
rate
of
45.6
billion,
slightly
below
2018
numbers,
according
to
YouMail,
a
robocall
protection
service
and
blocking
app.
As
telephone
culture
disappears,
what
is
the
loss
of
a
singular
family
phone
doing
to
the
family
unit?
Early
landline
phones
unified
family
members,
whereas
mobile
phones
isolate(隔离)
them.
“The
shared
family
phone
served
as
an
anchor
for
home,”
said
Luke
Fernandez,
a
Weber
State
University
computer-science
professor
and
co-author
of
Bored,
Lonely,
Angry,
Stupid:
Feelings
About
Technology,
From
the
Telegraph
to
Twitter.
“With
smart
phones,
we
have
gained
mobility
and
privacy.
But
the
value
of
the
home
has
been
diminished,
as
has
its
ability
to
guide
and
monitor
family
behavior
and
perhaps
connect
families
more
closely,”Fernandez
said.
Of
course,
as
technology
progresses,
lives
always
change
for
better
or
for
worse.
With
the
loss
of
telephone
culture,
families
will
need
to
find
other
ways
to
unite.
4.
What
has
caused
the
traditional
telephone
to
lose
its
appeal
according
to
the
text?
A.
People’s
preference
for
robocalls.
B.
People’s
addiction
to
social
media
C.
People’s
growing
need
for
privacy
D.
People’s
wide
range
of
communication
choices
5.
What
can
we
infer
from
Fernandez’s
remark?
A.
Smart
phones
make
families
closer.
B.
Smart
phones
help
people
monitor
family
behavior.
C.
The
value
of
home
depends
on
how
phones
are
used.
D.
The
use
of
mobile
phone
has
affected
family
bonds.
6.
What
does
the
article
mainly
talk
about?
A.
The
past
and
future
of
telephone
B.
The
development
of
communication
tools.
C.
The
downfall
of
traditional
telephone
culture.
D.
The
relation
between
phone
use
and
family
bonds.
【答案】4.
D
5.
D

C
【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了电话文化正在消失，并分析了电话文化消失背后的原因以及影响。
【详解】1.推理判断题，根据第三段“The

is
light
and
fun,
not
nearly
as
demanding
of
your
attention
as
a
phone
call.(发短信既轻松又有趣，不像打电话那样需要你的注意力。)”可以得知使用传统手机电话的习俗消失是因为人们有了更多的交流的选择，故选D项。
2.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段““The
shared
family

as
an
anchor
for

said
Luke
Fernandez,
a
Weber

Fernandez）说：“共享的家庭电话起到了家庭的锚定作用。”有了智能手机，我们获得了移动性和隐私。费尔南德斯说：“但是这个家的价值已经被削弱了，它引导和监控家庭行为的能力也被削弱了，也许还能把家庭联系得更紧密。”。)”从Fernandez说的话中可以得知手机的使用影响了家庭关系。故选D项。
3.主旨大意题。根据第一段“Everyone

how

C
Boycotting
(抵制)
has
long
been
used
as
a
political
tool.
In
the
late
18th
century,
it
was
used
to
discourage
the
use
of
products
made
by
slave
labor.
Now
it
is
being
used
to
influence
the
largest
social
media
platform
in
the
world,
Facebook
The
Stop
Hate
for
Profit
campaign
claims
the
platform
doesn’t
do
enough
to
remove
racist
and
hateful
comments
from
its
site.
Already,
this
has
resulted
in
a
series
of
major
companies,
including
Adidas
and
Starbucks,
removing
their
advertising
from
the
platform.
Can
that
boycott
hurt
Facebook?
The
short
answer
is
yes
—
the
vast
majority
of
Facebook's
income
comes
from
ads.
David
Cumming
from
Aviva
Investors
told
the
BBC
that
the
loss
of
trust
could
“destroy
the
business.”
On
Friday,
Facebook's
share
price
dropped
by
8
percent,
making
CEO
Mark
Zuckerberg,
on
paper,
$6
billion
poorer.
But
despite
the
huge
share
price
reduction,
some
believe
this
boycott
will
only
scratch
the
surface.
Apart
from
companies
only
committing
to
the
boycott
for
one
month,
the
biggest
factor
is
much
of
Facebook’s
advertising
income
comes
from
thousands
of
small-
to
medium-sized
businesses,
many
of
which
have
not
signed
up
for
the
boycott.
According
to
CNN,
the
site's
100
highest-spending
brands
only
account
for
6
percent
of
advertising
income.
In
contrast.
smaller
brands
view
social
media
ads
as
the
only
affordable
vehicle
for
mass
exposure.
Though
unable
to
force
a
change,
Zuckerberg
has
shown
sone
signs
of
flexibility
(灵活性)
following
an
announcement
that
the
site
would
begin
to
make
hateful
content.
But
this
pales
compared
to
measures
form
other
sites.
This
year
is
going
to
be
a
rocky
year
for
all
social
media
companies.
If
the
boycott
goes
on
into
the
autumn
and
if
more
and
more
companies
sigh
up,
this
could
be
a
defining
year
for
the
social
network.
7.
Why
has
Facebook
been
boycotted?
A.
It
has
been
used
as
a
political
tool.
B.
It
has
posted
many
inappropriate
advertisements.
C.
It
has
launched
the
Stop
Hate
for
Profit
campaign.
D.
It
has
failed
to
manage
discriminatory
posts
on
its
platform.
8.
What
does
the
underlined
sentence
in
Paragraph
3
imply?
A.
Facebook
will
take
measures
to
stop
the
boycott.
B.
Facebook
has
confidence
it
will
restore
its
users’
trust.
C.
Facebook
won’t
be
greatly
influenced
by
the
boycott.
D.
Facebook
hasn’t
been
affected
by
many
smaller
businesses.
9.
What
does
the
author
think
of
the
measures
Zuckerberg
has
taken?
A.
They
are
not
effective
enough.
B.
They
are
not
flexible
enough.
C.
They
are
better
than
those
taken
by
other
sites.
D.
They
will
help
Facebook
survive
the
boycott.
10.
How
does
the
author
feel
about
the
future
of
social
networks?
A.
Critical.
B.
Optimistic.
C.
Pessimistic.
D.
Uncertain.
【答案】7.

D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲的是Facebook因种族言论和仇恨问题遭到了抵制，从而遭受了不小的损失。
【7题详解】
细节理解题，根据第二段中“The
Stop
Hate
for
Profit
campaign
claims
the
platform
doesn’t
do
enough
to
remove
racist
and
hateful
comments
from
its
site.(Stop
Hate
for
Profit组织声称，该平台在删除网站上的种族主义和仇恨言论方面做得不够)”可知，Facebook遭到抵制的原因对于种族歧视和仇恨言论平台监管不力。故选D。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线部分所在句“But
despite
the
huge
share
price
reduction,
some
believe
this
boycott
will
only
scratch
the
surface.(但尽管股价大幅下跌，一些人认为这种抵制只会触及表面)”可推知，划线部分意为“Facebook不会受到抵制活动的很大影响”。故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“Zuckerberg
has
shown
sone
signs
of
flexibility
(灵活性)
following
an
announcement
that
the
site
would
begin
to
make
hateful
content.
But
this
pales
compared
to
measures
form
other
sites.(扎克伯格在宣布该网站将开始制作仇恨内容后，表现出了一些灵活的迹象。但这与其他地区相比就相形见绌了)
”可知，扎克伯格的措施还是显得苍白，不够有效。故选A。
【10题详解】
.推理判断题。根据最后一段“This
year
is
going
to
be
a
rocky
year
for
all
social
media
companies.
If
the
boycott
goes
on
into

for
the
social
network.(对于所有社交媒体公司来说，今年将是艰难的一年。如果抵制活动持续到秋季，如果越来越多的公司加入，今年可能是社交网络的决定性一年)
”可推知，作者对社交媒体的未来是不确定的。故选D。

【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍的是博物馆，包括世界上一些著名的博物馆，以及博物馆里展示的是什么。
【详解】1.
上文“
Do
you
picture
paintings
hanging
on
a
wall?
Quiet
halls
filled
full
of
relics
from
the
past?
Or
do
you
think
of
airplanes
suspended
from
the
ceiling?
Perhaps
science
experiments
come
to
mind”提到了博物馆你可能会想到满墙面的画，文化遗产，半空中垂悬的飞机等，E选项中“all
of
these
things
and
more
”对应上文提到的这些内容，承接上文，故选E.
2.
下文“One
of
the
most
famous
is
the
Louvre
in
Paris,
France.”可知，世界著名的博物馆之一是卢浮宫，因此上文应该引出艺术类博物馆。对应G选项中的“art
museums”，引起下文，故选G。
3.
上文“What
do
they
display
there?”（他们在那里展示什么?）可知，此空讲的是儿童博物馆的展示内容，C选项“
They
usually
feature
many
hands-on
activities.”指的是儿童博物馆的主要展出物，符合语境，故选C。
4.
上文“
Do
you
wonder
about
the
world
around
you
or
what’s
“out
there”?”可知，你想知道你周围的世界或“外面”有什么吗?
此处指的是世界以外的东西，应是太空博物馆，对应F选项中的“
a
science
or
space
museum”，符合语境，故选F。
5.
下文“These
are
museums
with
living
exhibits
that
are
right
out
in
the
open
instead
of
hanging
on
a
wall
or
sitting
behind
glass.”，可知这些博物馆有活生生的展品，它们就在户外，而不是挂在墙上或放在玻璃后面。由此可知，不是所有的博物馆是建筑，故选B。

【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。本文描述的是作者有一天在迪拜购物中心，一位工友警告说沙尘暴即将来临，并建议不要外出，由于作者没有见过沙尘暴，所以跟工友说想出去看看，工友感到很惊讶，认为作者疯了，在作者外出经历了沙尘暴之后，感到后悔宁愿自己没有外出的故事。
【详解】1.考查宾语从句。句意：我不知道沙尘暴是什么样子，我告诉他我想出去看看。分析句子可知此处包含一个定语从句，从句缺少宾语，由句意“沙尘暴看起来是什么样子”可知，应用what引导该从句。故填what。
2.
考查形容词。句意：我收到一个惊讶的眼神，因为他认为我疯了，甚至想看到沙尘暴。分析句子结合句意可知，空处应填入形容词作定语，修饰名词look，此处修饰人的感情，要用-ed结尾形容词。故填astonished。
3.
考查动词时态。句意：另一个工友也加入了我行列，他正朝着和我一样的街道走去。分析句子可知空处为句子的谓语，由“as
当……时”可知，这里要用过去进行时，主语he为第三人称单数，系动词应用was，故填was
heading。
4.
考查介词。句意：为了抵御沙尘暴，我们蒙着脸走出迪拜购物中心。根据句意可知此处表示“离开”，短语“step
off”表示“离开”。故填off。
5.
考查非谓语动词。句意：为了抵御沙尘暴，我们蒙着脸走出迪拜购物中心。句子已有谓语动词stepped
off，所以cover在句中应使用非谓语动词形式，结合句意可知，cover与逻辑主语faces之间为被动关系，所以用过去分词表被动，故填covered。
6.
考查形容词比较级。句意：在路上，风变得更大了，把城市笼罩在一层厚厚的棕黄色灰尘里。由句意和much修饰比较级可知，此处形容词应用比较级形式，故填stronger。
7.
考查动词时态。句意：在那一刻，我宁愿我没有出去。由would
rather可知，此处表示对过去的虚拟，时态用过去完成时had(not)done，故填hadn't
gone。
8.
考查副词。句意：幸运的是，沙尘暴后来停止了。分析句子结构结合句意可知，此处应用副词作状语，修饰句子。故填Fortunately。
9.
考查动词时态。句意：这是我第一次在迪拜遇到沙尘暴，我不想再遇到沙尘暴了。在固定句型“It
was
the
first
(second,
third…)
time
that
+从句”的结构中，从句时态用过去完成时。故填had
been。
10.
考查代词。句意：这是我第一次在迪拜遇到沙尘暴，我不想再遇到沙尘暴了。分析句子可知，此处缺少宾语，由句意可知，宾语泛指“沙尘暴”，所以应用代词one。故填one。

Emily
White
was
born
seventeen
years
ago
with
so
many
birth
problems
in
her
body.
Some
of
her
organs,
bones
and
muscles
were
out
of
shape.
No
one
expected
her
to
survive.
She
did
make
it
but
with
her
strange
body
figure,
everyone
could
recognize
her,
even
from
a
distance.
In
Emily
White's
hometown,
there
was
a
yearly
outdoor
performance
in
the
school
auditorium（礼堂）.
It
had
been
performed
for
so
many
years
and
actually
had
become
one
of
the
most
important
events
of
the
Christmas
season
for
many
of
the
town's
people.
Many
people
tried
out
each
year
for
it
but
so
many
were
turned
away.
It
could
only
include
the
most
excellent
people
in
the
field.
Emily
had
a
beautiful
singing
voice.
Last
year
she
went
to
Mrs.
Owens
—
her
music
teacher
to
ask
to
join
in
the
performance.
Without
letting
her
sing,
Mrs.
Owens
took
a
look
at
Amy's
body
and
said,
"Child,
you
just
don't
fit.
Everyone
would
stare
at
you
and
that
would
make
you
uncomfortable.
It
would
make
them
uncomfortable,
too."
Without
singing
a
single
note,
Emily
was
sent
back
through
the
door
of
the
choral（合唱）room.
Hurt
and
upset,
she
decided
never
to
try
out
again.
But
Mrs.
Owens
then
retired.
This
year,
there
came
a
new
music
teacher,
Butler.
He
heard
about
Emily
and
suggested
that
she
have
a
try.
Emily
didn't
want
to
be
rejected
again,
so
she
hesitated
a
little
about
it.
As
Emily
struggled,
the
door
was
pushed
open
and
Mr.
Butler
called,
"Emily,
you're
next."
Although
kind
of
nervous.
Emily
did
as
Mr.
Butler
told
her
to
do.
Mr.
Butler
sat
by
the
piano
to
accompany
Emily.
When
Emily
finished
her
testing
performance,
she
thanked
Mr.
Butler
and
knew
the
result
would
be
posted
on
the
door
of
the
choral
room
the
next
day.
Emily
couldn't
sleep
that
night.
She
was
suffering
from
the
feelings
that
she
didn't
fit
and
the
great
need
to
be
accepted.
By
the
next
morning,
her
stomach
was
even
in
pain
because
of
stress.
Para1:
The
next
day,
Emily
nervously
glanced
at
the
list
on
the
door
of
the
choral
room.

Finally,

performance

【答案】Paragraph
1
The
next
day,
Emily
nervously
glanced
at
the
list
on
the
door
of
the
choral
room,
She
was
not
rejected
this
time.
Her
name
was
posted
at
the
top
of
the
list.
She,
Emily
White,
was
chosen
to
be
the
leading
singer!
She
would
sing
alone
in
the
performance.
Emily
couldn't
believe
her
eyes.
There
must
be
some
mistake.
But
Mr
Buttler
said
to
her
with
determined
eyes,
"Emily,
I
choose
you
because
you
should
perform
the
part
—
your
voice
is
unusual.
Believe
in
yourself."
Greatly
encouraged,
Emily
practiced
really
hard.
Paragraph
2
Finally,
the
day
of
performance
came.
Standing
in
front
of
the
line,
Emily
felt
her
throat
tight
and
her
palms
sweating.
When
the
curtain
opened
up,
the
eyes
of
the
whole
audience
fell
upon
Emily.
"Emily
White!"
Someone
whispered.
Then,
along
with
the
first
note
of
music,
Emily
began
to
sing
her
heart
out.
Her
voice
was
like
a
nightingale
ringing
in
the
auditorium.
Applause!
Emily
felt
so
happy
and
comfortable.
She
was
shining
on
the
stage.
Emily
White,
with
so
many
birth
problems
in
her
body,
was
an
angel.
【解析】
【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知，Emily17年前出生时身体就有很多问题，她的一些器官、骨骼和肌肉变形了，好在Eimly有一副美丽的歌喉，但她在去年想要参加音乐选拔，却被音乐老师无情拒绝。今年来了一位新的音乐老师听说了她的事情，给与了她一次展示自己的机会，Emily很感激，但到等待选拔结果的时候她很紧张。续写部分分为两段。
【详解】根据提示，第一段开头：The
next
day,
Emily
nervously
glanced
at
the
list
on
the
door
of
the
choral
room.
Emily匆忙赶到合唱室，焦虑地看着合唱室门上的名单。所以可以接着写：她这一次没有被拒绝，她的名字位于榜首，被选中成为了主唱，她可以在表演中独唱了。但是Emily不敢相信，觉得肯定是搞错了，但Butler老师带着坚定的眼神说：“我选择你是因为你要演唱这一部分，你的声音太不寻常了，相信自己。”受到了极大的鼓舞，Emily的训练真的非常努力。
第二段的开头是：终于，表演的那天来了。所以可以接着写：站在队伍前面，Emily感到喉咙发紧，手心冒汗。大幕打开时，所有观众的目光都落在Emily身上。“Emily
White!”有人小声说。接着，随着音乐的第一个音符，Emily开始放声歌唱。她的声音像夜莺在礼堂里鸣响。掌声!
Emily感到很高兴和舒适。她在舞台上光芒四射。Emily
White，尽管她的身体里有那么多的生育问题，但她是一个天使。
