第一节(共15小题)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
What’s on your travel list for 2020? I’ve consulted several travel experts to find out the top places in the USA worth visiting in 2020.
Where: New Orleans, Louisiana
Why: New Orleans is known for its music and food scene-not to mention the festivals. It has about 130 festivals each year so there抯 really no bad time to visit. Bourbon Street is the obvious choice for food, drink and jazz and it抯 definitely a must-visit location, especially for first-timers to the city.
Where: Vail Village, Colorado
Why: Vail is the perfect destination for travelers looking to find almost everything in one central spot. Stay at the amazing Four Seasons Resort and Residences Vail to be steps away from Vail Village, a popular town with cobblestone (鹅卵石) streets for wandering leisurely. The country’s largest free transportation system runs frequently, making it easy to access almost anywhere from Vail Village to Lionshead Village.
Where: Hudson Valley, New York
Why: The Hudson Valley is where New Yorkers go to escape the city when they need a healthy dose of nature and relaxation. Just an hour and half north of New York City, the Hudson Valley is made up of small, impossibly charming towns, where the air is fresher and things do move slower in the mountains.
1. You can enjoy different things in New Orleans except ________.
A. scenery B. music C. festivals D. food
2. Which place would you prefer if you like wandering leisurely?
A. Bourbon Street. B. Vail Village.
C. Lionshead Village. D. New Orleans.
3. What can New Yorkers enjoy in the Hudson Valley?
A. Ancient towns. B. Healthy diets.
C. Slow movement. D. Inner peace.
B
Nick Vujicic was born with no arms or legs, but the brave 32-year-old man, plays football and golf, swims, and surfs. Nick has a small foot on his left side, which helps him balance and enables him to kick. He uses his one foot to type, write with a pen and pick things up between his toes.
揑 call it my chicken drumstick (鸡腿),” joked Nick, “I'd be lost without it. When I get in the water I float because 80 per cent of my body is lungs and my drumstick acts as a propeller.”
When Nick was born his father was so shocked he left the hospital room to vomit. His distraught mother couldn't bring herself to hold him until he was four months old.
揑t was so hard for them, but right from the start they did their best to make me independent. My dad put me in the water at 18 months and gave me the courage to learn how to swim. said Nick.
Throughout his childhood Nick dealt with the typical challenges. At the age of seven, Nick tried out some specially designed electronic arms and legs, in hope that he would be more like the other kids. During the short trial period of the electronic arms and legs, Nick realized that even with them, he was still unlike his peers at school, and they turned out to be much too heavy for Nick to operate, affecting his flexibility quite significantly.
揥hen I was 13 I read a newspaper article about a disabled man who had managed to achieve great things and help others, said Nick, 揑 realized why God had made us like this梩o give hope to others. It was so inspirational to me that I decided to use my life to encourage others and decided to be thankful for what I do have, not get angry about what I don't.
揑 tell people to keep on getting up when they fall and to always love themselves, he said. 揑f I can encourage just one person then my job in this life is done. By now, he has visited 35 different countries, touring the world as a motivational speaker.
4. What makes it possible for Nick to swim in the water?
A. His small size. B. His small foot.
C. His light weight. D. His big lungs.
5. The underlined word 揹istraught in paragraph 3 probably means _____.
A. cold-blooded B. bad-tempered
C. really crazy D. extremely upset
6. Nick abandoned the electronic arms and legs because ________.
A. his family couldn抰 afford them
B. his classmates didn抰 like them
C. they were too heavy to handle
D. they affected his appearance
7. Which of the following statements is true?
A. Nick抯 parents were very strict with him.
B. Nick抯 family accepted his disability at his birth.
C. Nick抯 mother was to blame for his disability.
D. Nick learned to be independent at a young age.
C
Humans were designed to stand upright(直立). And yet in this modern world, too many of us spend our days with our heads lowered for a simple reason: we’re staring at the tiny screen of a smartphone.
People spend an average of 2 to 4 hours each day with their neck bent while shooting off emails or texts. That’s 700 to 1,400 hours a year. The success of social media has led to a rapid development of bad smartphone posture(姿势). That’s 700 to 1,400 hours a year. The success of social media has led to a rapid development of bad smartphone posture.
The average adult head weighs 10 to 12 pounds when it’s in the upright position. However, because of the gravity, bending your head at a mere 15 degree puts 27 pounds of pressure on your spine(脊椎); a 30 degree neck bend could equal 40 pounds of a pressure; a 45 degree bend adds the force of 49 pounds, according to research from Dr. Kenneth Hansraj from New York. These stresses may lead to many problems.
It抯 no secret that correct posture is better for your back. According to the researchers, good posture is described as ears aligned(成一条直线) with the shoulders. In proper alignment, spinal stress disappeared. It is the best position for the spine. Standing tall doesn’t just make you look better; it improves your health, too. Other studies have found good posture has even been connected to ways of behaving. People who have poorer posture often have poorer physical and emotional(情绪上的) health.
The researchers describe bad posture as “the head in a forward position and the shoulders dropping forward in a rounded position”. Bad posture has been connected to many medical problems, including headaches and other problems, depression and heart disease. This is why Hansraj said it抯 important to be mindful of your smartphone posture. While it is nearly impossible to avoid the technologies that cause these problems, people should make an effort to look at their phones with a correct posture.
8. Through the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 the author wants to show that _______.
A. the social media have its bad side
B. the social media have made a great success
C. people have to use social media unavoidably
D. more and more people are using smartphone
9. What does the third paragraph mainly tell us?
A. It抯 healthy to bend your back regularly.
B. Your back is getting exercise as you bend it.
C. The average weight of an adult head always changes.
D. The more you bend your neck, the heavier the head becomes.
10. What is the correct posture?
A. Bend your head within 15 degree.
B. Raise and lower your head in turn
C. Drop your head forward in a rounded position.
D. Keep the positions of the neck and shoulders in a line.
11. It can be learnt a correct posture can ________.
A. cure many diseases B. make one behave differently
C. cause no stress to the spine D. prevent one from gaining weight
D
Are you the type of person who always says 搚es? I抳e come to learn that it is very important to learn to say 搉o. It抯 okay. People are still going to like you. They may even respect you more because they know you are honest.
I抦 not saying to say 搉o to someone who really needs your help. I抦 talking about turning down that meeting that you really do not want to attend or that birthday party that you don抰 want to be a guest at.
Think for a moment how you feel when you say 搚es to something that you really dont want to do. If you抮e like I once was, you can抰 sleep at night and you think about it too much. It weighs on your mind. You try to find ways out. Whatever you抮e saying to yourself, if you really wanted to go, you wouldn抰 have all of these thoughts.
So, why not just say “no” from the beginning?Maybe you feel like if you don’t show up at the meeting (by the way, it is not one you must attend), your boss isn’t going to like you or your co?workers won’t respect you. Maybe you feel as if your mom, dad or sisters won抰 love you as much if you don抰 do everything for them what they ask every occasion.
If these people are your true friends, family members, or a good boss, they will like or love you the same no matter what. People treat you the way you teach them to, and if you抮e someone who always says 搚es, then that抯 what they抮e expecting.
You need to do what is right for you. Of course we do have real obligations in life to fulfill, but we do not have to do everything others want us to do.
12. Which of the following statements would the writer agree with?
A. We should try to do what our friends ask us to do.
B. We should help others in need.
C. Always saying 搚es means you are dishonest.
D. Always saying no means you are brave.
13. Generally speaking we agree to do what we hate to do because we________.
A. have a bad habit B. have a kind heart
C. have much concern D. have obligations
14. The writer believes that if you say 搉o to your family members, you抣l________.
A. have the same relationship with them as before B. have a loose relationship with them
C. disappoint them D. upset them
15. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Learn to Make a Right Choice B. To Be Yourself
C. Do What You Want to Do D. Learn to Say “No”

Signs of Healthy Friendships
Once in a while it’s helpful to see if your friendship is as healthy as it can be. You might get used to a friendship over time to the point where you don’t see the room for improvement. And since great friendships are priceless, you should always surround yourself with the kind of people who will lift your spirits, make you laugh, and remind(提醒) you that you are loved. ___16___ Here are characteristics that strong friendships share.
___17___
Friends make you feel comfortable with yourself, so you don抰 need to act like someone you抮e not. Your friends know your shortcomings and love you anyway. You are perhaps the 揵est version of yourself when you抮e with your friends.
A healthy friendship includes plenty of gentle honesty. True friends won抰 pretend(假装) just to avoid an argument. ___18___. As a result, you’ll know where you stand with your friends and won’t be afraid to share your true opinions.
They argue in a healthy way.
One of the biggest misunderstandings about good friends is that they never fight. But let抯 face it: everyone fights. ___19___In fact, voicing your opinions freely will cause you to disagree from time to time and that抯 okay.
Healthy friendships mean you can be friends with someone else, too.
___20___That抯 why great friends will improve your relationship yet still encourage you to meet people and try new things without them. A healthy friendship means that sometimes the two of you spend time apart, and that抯 okay.
A. Even if you have the best friend, it doesn抰 hurt to expand your social circle.
B. In a positive friendship, your friends won抰 lie to you, and they won抰 hurt your feelings either.
C. With an unhealthy friendship, you know clearly that something is off.
D. Arguing isn抰 unhealthy.
E. Good friends lose touch with each other from time to time.

Humans were designed to stand upright(直立). And yet in this modern world, too many of us spend our days with our heads lowered for a simple reason: we’re staring at the tiny screen of a smartphone.
People spend an average of 2 to 4 hours each day with their neck bent while shooting off emails or texts. That’s 700 to 1,400 hours a year. The success of social media has led to a rapid development of bad smartphone posture(姿势). That’s 700 to 1,400 hours a year. The success of social media has led to a rapid development of bad smartphone posture.
The average adult head weighs 10 to 12 pounds when it抯 in the upright position. However, because of the gravity, bending your head at a mere 15 degree puts 27 pounds of pressure on your spine(脊椎); a 30 degree neck bend could equal 40 pounds of a pressure; a 45 degree bend adds the force of 49 pounds, according to research from Dr. Kenneth Hansraj from New York. These stresses may lead to many problems.
It’s no secret that correct posture is better for your back. According to the researchers, good posture is described as ears aligned(成一条直线) with the shoulders. In proper alignment, spinal stress disappeared. It is the best position for the spine. Standing tall doesn’t just make you look better; it improves your health, too. Other studies have found good posture has even been connected to ways of behaving. People who have poorer posture often have poorer physical and emotional(情绪上的) health.
The researchers describe bad posture as “the head in a forward position and the shoulders dropping forward in a rounded position. Bad posture has been connected to many medical problems, including headaches and other problems, depression and heart disease. This is why Hansraj said it抯 important to be mindful of your smartphone posture. While it is nearly impossible to avoid the technologies that cause these problems, people should make an effort to look at their phones with a correct posture.
8. Through the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 the author wants to show that _______.
A. the social media have its bad side
B. the social media have made a great success
C. people have to use social media unavoidably
D. more and more people are using smartphone
9. What does the third paragraph mainly tell us?
A. It抯 healthy to bend your back regularly.
B. Your back is getting exercise as you bend it.
C. The average weight of an adult head always changes.
D. The more you bend your neck, the heavier the head becomes.
10. What is the correct posture?
A. Bend your head within 15 degree.
B. Raise and lower your head in turn
C. Drop your head forward in a rounded position.
D. Keep the positions of the neck and shoulders in a line.
11. It can be learnt a correct posture can ________.
A. cure many diseases B. make one behave differently
C. cause no stress to the spine D. prevent one from gaining weight

Are you the type of person who always says “yes”? I’ve come to learn that it is very important to learn to say “no”. It’s okay. People are still going to like you. They may even respect you more because they know you are honest.
I抦 not saying to say 搉o to someone who really needs your help. I抦 talking about turning down that meeting that you really do not want to attend or that birthday party that you don抰 want to be a guest at.
Think for a moment how you feel when you say 搚es to something that you really don抰 want to do. If you抮e like I once was, you can抰 sleep at night and you think about it too much. It weighs on your mind. You try to find ways out. Whatever you抮e saying to yourself, if you really wanted to go, you wouldn’t have all of these thoughts.
So, why not just say “no” from the beginning?Maybe you feel like if you don’t show up at the meeting (by the way, it is not one you must attend), your boss isn’t going to like you or your co?workers won’t respect you. Maybe you feel as if your mom, dad or sisters won抰 love you as much if you don抰 do everything for them what they ask every occasion.
If these people are your true friends, family members, or a good boss, they will like or love you the same no matter what. People treat you the way you teach them to, and if you抮e someone who always says 搚es, then that抯 what they抮e expecting.
You need to do what is right for you. Of course we do have real obligations in life to fulfill, but we do not have to do everything others want us to do.
12. Which of the following statements would the writer agree with?
A. We should try to do what our friends ask us to do.
B. We should help others in need.
C. Always saying 搚es means you are dishonest.
D. Always saying no means you are brave.
13. Generally speaking we agree to do what we hate to do because we________.
A. have a bad habit B. have a kind heart
C. have much concern D. have obligations
14. The writer believes that if you say 搉o to your family members, you抣l________.
A. have the same relationship with them as before B. have a loose relationship with them
C. disappoint them D. upset them
15. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Learn to Make a Right Choice B. To Be Yourself
C. Do What You Want to Do D. Learn to Say No
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. D
