第一部分  阅读技能(共两节,满分45)

第一节  阅读理解(12小题;每题3分,满分36)

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(ABCD)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

This is my son Matthew’s last night at home before college. I know that this is good news. I feel proud that Matthew will go to a great school. I know that this is the finest hour. But looking at the suitcases on his bed sends me out of the room to a hidden corner where I can’t stop crying.

Through the sorrow, I feel embarrassed. “Pull yourself together!” I tell myself. There are parents sending their kids off to battle zones. How dare I feel so shocked and upset?

One of the great gifts of my life has been having my boys, Matthew and John Owen. Through them, I have explored the mysterious, complicated bond between fathers and sons. As my wife and I raised them, I have discovered the love and loss between my father and me. After my parents’ divorce, I spent weekends with my dad in Ohio. By the time Sunday came around, I was unable to enjoy the day’s activities because I was already afraid of the goodbye of the evening.

Now, standing among Matthew’s accumulation of possessions, I realize it’s me who has become a boy again. All my sadness and longing to hold on to things are back, sweeping over me as they did when I was a child.

His bed is tidy and spare. It already has the feel of a guest bed. In my mind I replay wrapping him in his favorite blanket. That was our nightly routine until one evening he said, “Daddy, I don’t think I need a blanket tonight.” I think of all the times we lay among the covers reading. I look at the bed and think of all the recent times I was annoyed at how late he was going to sleep. I’ll never have to worry about that again, I realize.

For his part, Matthew has been a rock. He is treating his leaving as just another day at the office. And I’m glad. After all, someone’s got to be strong. I’m proud that he is charging into the first chapter of his adult life with such conf idence.

2. We can infer from the passage that__________.

A. the writer is accustomed to sleeping early

With reports suggesting a second wave of coronavirus(新冠病毒) may be on its way (or here already), it makes sense to give yourselves a check if we’re still doing all the right things. Washing hands is one of those things that we were hopefully already doing, but realized in the wake of the pandemic that we could always be doing it more and for longer. But what about washing our food? Given the news that there have been outbreaks in food factories and processing plants from-Bernard Matthews to Mr. Kipling locations-it does make sense to think about it.

Although the government have confirmed that the chance of catching coronavirus from food and food packaging is “very unlikely”, washing food before eating is a part of good habit that can reduce that small risk. Sally Bloomfield, chair of the scientific advisory board of the International Scientific Forum on Home Hygiene tells people, “Because the items you pick off the shelves in the supermarket will have been touched by other people, there is a chance that the packaging may have become harmful via their hands. Washing your shopping is not a question of whether it is necessary, it’s about minimizing risk-and if someone in the home is at increased risk of infection, this becomes more important.”

Dr. Perpetua Emeagi, a lecturer in Human Biology and Biological Sciences at Liverpool Hope University, says, “If someone with COVID-19 asked you if you wanted a bite of their sandwich, you clearly wouldn’t go anywhere near it.” And the same caution has to be taken with everything you bring home from the supermarket, as you simply don t know who’s been handling it before you. Imagine a scene where someone with COVID-19 has sneezed into his hands before entering the store and picked up a tin of beans. The same person changes his mind, puts the tin of beans back on the shelf, only for you to come and place it in your basket shortly afterwards. On the science side, she continues, “Officially, Public Health England tells us that the quantity of infectious virus on any surface is likely to have decreased significantly by 24 hours, and even more so by 48 hours. But there’s also some evidence to suggest the virus could survive for up to seven days outside the human body. Surfaces like cardboard and plastic-common supermarket packaging products-are known to effectively harbor COVID-19. And my advice would be this: Wash or wipe down everything you bring home thoroughly before either putting in your cupboards or consuming it.”

5. Why did the author mention coronavirus in the first paragraph?

A. To give some evidence. B. To attract young readers.

C. To lead to the topic. D. To relate the latest event.

6. Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 2?

A. People can by no means catch a virus from food.

B. Washing food before eating is a positive and necessary action.

C. The items you pick from the supermarket can have a lot of viruses.

D. The government has confirmed that there is no need to wash food before eating.

7. What does the underlined word mean in Paragraph 3?

A. Cause. B. Destroy. C. Protect. D. Carry.

8. What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. Necessity of washing food before eating.

B. Ways to stop the spread of coronavirus.

C. Approaches to picking up groceries.

D. Ways to deal with infection with coronavirus.

C

A study showed that the experiences children have in their first few years are important . These experiences affect the development of the brain. When children receive more attention, they often have higher IQs. Babies receive information when they see, hear and feel things, which makes connections between different parts of the brain. There are a hundred trillion(万亿)connections in the brain of a three-year-old child.

Researcher Judit Gervain tested how good newborns are at distinguishing different sound patterns. Her researchers produced images of the brains of babies as they heard different sound patterns. For example, one order was mu-ba-ba. This is the pattern"A-B-B". Another order was mu-ba-ge. This is the pattern “A-B-C”. The images showed that the part of the brain responsible for speech was more active during the" A-B-B"pattern. This shows that babies can tell the difference between different patterns. They also were sensitive to where it occurred in the order.

Gervain is excited by these findings because the order of sounds is the building block of words and grammar. "Position is key to language," she says. "If something is at the beginning or at the end, it makes a big difference: 'John caught the bear.' is very different from 'The bear caught John.'”

Researchers led by scientist Patricia Kuhl have found that language delivered by televisions, audio books, the Internet, or smartphones-no matter how educational-doesn’t appear to be enough for children’s brain development. They carried out a study of nine-month-old American babies. They expected the first group who’d watched videos in Chinese to show the same kind of learning as the second group who were brought face-to-face with the same sounds. Instead they found a huge difference. The babies in the second group were able to distinguish between similar Chinese sounds as well as native listeners. But the other babies -regardless of whether they had watched the video or listened to the audio-learned nothing.

9. What makes connections in a baby’s brain?

A. Having a higher IQ. B. Experiencing new information.

C. The baby’s early age. D. The connection with other babies.

10. What did Judit Gervain and her team find in the experiment?

A. Babies can identify different sound patterns.

B. Word order is relevant to meaning.

C. Babies can well understand different words.

D. A certain brain region processes language.

11. What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 3?

A. Words have different sounds.

B. Different orders have different meanings.

C. Different languages have different grammar.

D. Grammar is important in learning languages

12. What is the main conclusion from the study led by Patricia Kuhl?

A. Babies shouldn’t watch a lot of television.

B. Foreign languages help babies’ brain develop.

C. Listening to different languages develops babies’ brain.

D. Social communication improves babies’ brain development.

第二节  小标题填空(3小题;每小题3分,满分9)

下面文章中有3处(第13~15题)需要添加小标题。请从以下选项(A、B、C和D)中选出符合各段意思的小标题,选项中有一项是多余选项。

How to become a better reader

Language and literacy(读写能力) are among humans’ greatest inventions. Evolving over the course of human history, languages are a reflection of our cultural and societal attitudes. Today, surrounded by social media, television, movies,and, of course, books, the ability to read and write is important to expressing one’s feelings. Most humans acquire language in early childhood and speak fluently when they are about three years old, but our continued relationship with language gives shape and meaning to our lives. Here are 4 ways to become a better reader.

____13____ Many readers feel that they read too slowly, especially compared with others. But the truth is that the faster you read, the less likely you are to understand fully what you’re reading. The best readers are flexible(灵活的)-slowing down when needed-and always have a dictionary at hand.

____14____ When humans first began reading written words, it was unusual to read in silence. Reading out loud is one of the best ways to improve your reading ability. Try listening to the author reading their own work-you’ll be surprised to find how clearly it comes through on the page.

Write more. Writing and reading go hand-in-hand: How and what you read affects how and what you write and the best readers often make the best writers. But while much can be learned from close, repeated reading, there are many pleasures to language that can only be experienced through the practice of writing. Try writing every day for a month, and you will never read the same again.

___15___ All of the literature is essentially communication from an individual’s inner voice to an audience. There is something magical about sharing books with friends or a book club. It’s a good way to see the world from someone else’s eyes and, in the process, carefully examine your own reaction to what you re reading.

A. Take it slow.

B. Tell your friends.

C. Do more reading.

D. Read aloud.

第一节  双向翻译(5小题;每小题2分,满分10)

请根据上下文内容,将文中划线部分译成汉语或者英语。

(    36    )One of the most famous Chinese medical treatments is the art of “magic needles”, or Chinese acupuncture (针刺疗法). It was developed long ago, perhaps as early as 2000 BC.

Some of the medical problems that can be treated by acupuncture include severe pains, headaches, injuries, stomach problems and high blood pressure. (    37    ) Some people have also used it to treat smokers, alcoholics and people who are addicted to drugs.

How acupuncture reduces pain is not clear. One theory explaining this phenomenon suggests that acupuncture blocks pain signals from reaching the brain. Another theory relates acupuncture to the production of chemicals in the body which reduce pain. A lot of people now subscribe to these theories.

As a unique contribution of traditional Chinese medicine, (    38    )它传到了亚洲其他许多国家,such as Japan, as early as the 6th century. It was introduced to the West in the 17th century. (    39    )Today it has become popular round the world, as have other traditional Chinese medicines.
