三、任务型阅读(请认真阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填上一个最
恰当的词)
China Using Mobile Apps to Follow Spread of Coronavirus
People in China are using apps on mobile phones to follow and perhaps help slow the spread of the new
coronavirus, COVID-19. Some of the apps provide the latest information about areas hit by the virus, while others
collect data on infected persons.
The Chinese government is working with two of the country’s largest technology companies to keep track of
the disease. The two, Alibaba Group and Tencent Holdings, created color-based systems that record the health of
individuals and identify carriers of the coronavirus.
In February, Alipay, a payment app operated by Alibaba, released a system that uses colored QR Codes to
show the health of people in the city of Hangzhou. A QR code is a sign a smartphone can read with its camera.
Once the sign is recognized, the phone takes the user directly to an internet link with information about a subject.After completing the questionnaire, users receive a mobile phone message. It includes a color-based QR Code
that relates to the health situation they described. Users with a red code are told to quarantine themselves for 14
days and continue reporting their condition by using Alibaba’s DingTalk messaging app. Users with a yellow code
are told to stay in quarantine for 7 days, while those with a green code can travel freely.
Chinese state media said the Alibaba system would be deployed at train stations, along major roads and other
travel checkpoints. They added that the system is also being used in some neighborhoods. People are asked to show
QR Codes when entering their apartment buildings. Customers are asked to do the same before entering the local
supermarket. Alipay said it was working with the government to expand the system nationwide.
Tencent, which operates China’s popular messaging app WeChat, reported the launch of a similar QR
Code-based tracking system. Tencent developed the system with help from China’s National Development and
Reform Council, which is currently in use in the southern city of Shenzhen. Officials said they expected it to be
deployed to other parts of Guangdong province soon.
Even before the latest systems were announced, many Chinese were already using mapping and travel apps in
an effort to avoid areas with coronavirus infections. One of the apps, developed by WeChat, uses official reports to
identify places in the cities of Shenzhen and Guangzhou where coronavirus cases have been confirmed.
One user of the apps told Reuters she finds the maps can provide “psychological comfort.” The woman, who
did not want her full name reported, said: “You can’t guarantee there won’t be fresh cases, but you can avoid an
area that’s already hit.”
The technology website Abacus reported that citizens can request location data from their mobile phone
carrier to show they had not been in affected areas. The report said that if requested, China’s state-owned
telecommunication companies will send users a message listing all the areas they had visited within the past 14
days.

三、任务型阅读(请认真阅读下面短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填上一个最
恰当的词)
China Using Mobile Apps to Follow Spread of CoronavirusPeople in China are using apps on mobile phones to follow and perhaps help slow the spread of the new
coronavirus, COVID-19. Some of the apps provide the latest information about areas hit by the virus, while others
collect data on infected persons.
The Chinese government is working with two of the country’s largest technology companies to keep track of
the disease. The two, Alibaba Group and Tencent Holdings, created color-based systems that record the health of
individuals and identify carriers of the coronavirus.
In February, Alipay, a payment app operated by Alibaba, released a system that uses colored QR Codes to
show the health of people in the city of Hangzhou. A QR code is a sign a smartphone can read with its camera.
Once the sign is recognized, the phone takes the user directly to an internet link with information about a subject.
After completing the questionnaire, users receive a mobile phone message. It includes a color-based QR Code
that relates to the health situation they described. Users with a red code are told to quarantine themselves for 14
days and continue reporting their condition by using Alibaba’s DingTalk messaging app. Users with a yellow code
are told to stay in quarantine for 7 days, while those with a green code can travel freely.
Chinese state media said the Alibaba system would be deployed at train stations, along major roads and other
travel checkpoints. They added that the system is also being used in some neighborhoods. People are asked to show
QR Codes when entering their apartment buildings. Customers are asked to do the same before entering the local
supermarket. Alipay said it was working with the government to expand the system nationwide.
Tencent, which operates China’s popular messaging app WeChat, reported the launch of a similar QR
Code-based tracking system. Tencent developed the system with help from China’s National Development and
Reform Council, which is currently in use in the southern city of Shenzhen. Officials said they expected it to be
deployed to other parts of Guangdong province soon.
Even before the latest systems were announced, many Chinese were already using mapping and travel apps in
an effort to avoid areas with coronavirus infections. One of the apps, developed by WeChat, uses official reports to
identify places in the cities of Shenzhen and Guangzhou where coronavirus cases have been confirmed.
One user of the apps told Reuters she finds the maps can provide “psychological comfort.” The woman, who
did not want her full name reported, said: “You can’t guarantee there won’t be fresh cases, but you can avoid an
area that’s already hit.”
The technology website Abacus reported that citizens can request location data from their mobile phone
carrier to show they had not been in affected areas. The report said that if requested, China’s state-owned
telecommunication companies will send users a message listing all the areas they had visited within the past 14 days.

红色二维码的用户被告知要隔离 14 天,并继续使用阿里巴巴的 DingTalk 短信应用程序报告自己

【语篇解读】本篇为夹叙夹议类文体。文章主要讲述了:仇恨就像一个腐烂难闻的马铃薯,不仅给我们带
来负担,还让我们痛苦。所以我们要放下仇恨,选择原谅,就会快乐而轻松,这不仅是给别
人的礼物,也是给自己的礼物。
1.【答案】For 【解析】考查介词。句意:对于学生在生活中不肯原谅的人,他们选择了一个土豆。分析句意可知,本句
中用介词 for 来表示动作的对象或接受者,意为“对……(而言)”,故填For。
2.【答案】chose
【解析】考查动词的时态。根据文章的内容可知是叙述过去的事情,故此句中的 choose 要用一般过去时,
故填 chose。
3.【答案】it
【解析】考查代词的指代。it 指代每个人所选择的一个土豆,句意:对于学生在生活中都不肯原谅的人,
他们选择了一个土豆,在上面写上了那个人的名字和日期,然后把它放进塑料袋里。
4.【答案】putting
【解析】考查非谓语动词。句意:然后,告知他们要把这些袋子随身携带一周,晚上把它们放在床旁边,
开车时放在汽车座位上,工作时放在办公桌旁。根据句意可知,put 在此作 carry 是伴随状语,而
put 的逻辑主语是 they,二者是主动关系,故填 putting。
5.【答案】During
【解析】考查介词的基本用法。根据下文的叙述可以推断是“在这段时间里”。
6.【答案】how
【解析】考查名词从句。how 引导宾语从句作前面谓语 realized 的宾语。句意:。
7.【答案】embarrassing
【解析】考查词性转换(现在分作形容词作定语)。后面是名词,需要用形容词来修饰,将 embarrass 转换成
现在分词 embarrassing,说明地方是“令人尴尬的”。句意:在这段时间里,当他们随身带着袋子
时,他们意识到他们携带的有多重,他们需要如何时刻关注,以便不要忘了它们或者把他们留在
尴尬的地方。
8.【答案】rotten
【解析】考查词性转换(过去分作形容词作表语)。句意:马铃薯腐烂了,味道很难闻。rot 动词,(使)腐烂。
而句中作表语,要用形容词“rotten(腐烂的,恶臭的)”,故填rotten。
9.【答案】same
【解析】考查固定搭配。the same as 与……一样。
10.【答案】unhappiness 【解析】考查词性转换(名词、反义词)。分析句子可知,本句所填的词与名词 pain 是并列关系,故用 happy
的反义词的名词 unhappiness。句意:这和我们为维持痛苦和不幸所付出的代价一样。
五、短文改错

At 3:42 one of the greatest earthquake of the 20th century shook Tangshan. It seemed as if the world was at
the end. A huge crack that was eight kilometers long and thirty meters wider cut across houses, roads and canals.
Steam bursts from holes in the ground. Hard hills of rock became rivers of dirt. In fifteen terrible seconds a large
city lay in ruin. The suffering of the people was extremely. Two-thirds of them died and injured during the
earthquake. The number of people killing or injured reached more than 400,000. After the earthquake, everywhere
the survivors looked nearly everything was destroyed. Bricks covered the ground like red autumn leaves and sand
was now filled the wells instead of water. People were shocking and they felt hopeless.
【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文,详细讲述了唐山大地震发生时的具体情形并介绍了这次大地震对人们带
来的巨大痛苦。
1.【答案】earthquake 改成 earthquakes
【解析】考查名词的数。one of+可数名词复数意为“……之一”,介词of 的后面要可数名词复数形式
earthquakes,所以要把 earthquake 改为 earthquakes。句意:在 3 点 42 分,20 世纪最大的地震之
一让唐山摇晃了起来。
2.【答案】the 改成 an
【解析】考查固定短语中的冠词。介词短语 at an end 意为“结束”,所以要把the 改为 an。句意:似乎整
个世界都结束了。
3.【答案】wider 改成 wide
【解析】考查形容词的级。句中形容词原形 wide 直接用在数词之后,与前半句中的 long 形成呼应,所以
要把 wider 改为 wide。句意:8 公里长 30 米宽的裂缝把房屋道路和水渠割开了。4.【答案】bursts 改成 burst
【解析】考查动词的时态。本文是一篇记叙文,介绍唐山大地震的有关情况,全文以一般过去时为主,动
词 burst 的过去式是 burst,所以本句要把 bursts 改为 burst。句意:蒸汽从地上的洞里迸发出来。
5.【答案】ruin 改成 ruins
【解析】考查固定短语。介词短语 in ruins 意为“成为废墟”,所以要把ruin 改为 ruins。句意:在 15 秒之
内,整个城市成为一片废墟。
6.【答案】extremely 改成 extreme
【解析】考查形容词。在英语里副词通常作状语修饰形容词、副词、动词或整个句子;而形容词通常作定
语修饰名词代词,本句应该使用形容词与系动词构成系表结构,所以要把副词 extremely 改为形
容词 extreme。句意:人民痛苦极了。
7.【答案】injured 前加 were
【解析】考查动词的语态。句中 injured 意为“受伤的”,要和were 连用构成被动语态,所以要加 were。
句意:在地震中有三分之二的人死伤;
8.【答案】killing 改成 killed
【解析】考查非谓语动词。句意:被杀死或受伤的人的数量超过了 40 万。句子 people 与动词 kill 构成被

9.【答案】删除 was now filled 中的 was
