Do you have any New Year's Eve food traditions? Read through the foods below to figure out the best New Year's Eve foods. Greens Greens are a late crop mostly grown in the south, so they're easy to find in the colder months. They are go-to New Year's Eve foods because they look like money. Cornbread Mix and match a few different New Year's Eve food traditions with black-eyed peas, greens, and cornbread to make a fortune. As the Southern saying goes, “ peas for pennies, greens for dollars, and cornbread for gold. ” Soba In Japan, soba is the traditional New Year's food of choice. The length of the soba noodles is said to symbolize a long life. Part of the tradition is eating the whole noodle since the luck runs out if you break or chew the noodle. Grapes Make sure to add grapes to your New Year's food. On New Year's Eve, the Spanish eats a grape for each strike of midnight, with each representing a page of the calendar ahead. If one is bitter, watch out for that month! Pork Pigs are a lucky New Year5s Eve food because they move forward when they eat. They are also rotund (圆胖的),symbolizing a fat wallet ahead. And the meat itself is fattier than other cuts of meat, making this New Year's Eve food both tasty and a symbol of richness. Cake Ring-shaped cakes are a symbol of coming full circle, making them a perfect New Year's food. This tradition roots in the Greeks who make a traditional Vasilopita with a hidden coin baked inside. If you get the piece with the coin, you'll have good luck for a year. Fish Fish are believed to be a lucky New Year’s Eve food because their scales look like coins, and they swim in groups, which relates to the idea of abundance. Plus, fish swim forward, which represents progress. So, try some of these dishes for your next New Year's Eve party to bring luck to all your guests and yourself. 31. Which of the New Year's Eve foods has nothing to do with wealth? A. Fish. B. Grapes. C. Pork. D. Cornbread. 32. Japanese consider the length of soba noodles as a symbol of _______.

A. rich B. fortunate C. healthy D. fulfilling 【答案】31. B 32. C 33. B 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一些世界各地新年前夜吃些能带来好运的食物习俗。 【31 题详解】 细节理解题。根据 Grapes 部分中 On New Year's Eve, the Spanish eats a grape for each strike of midnight, with each representing a page of the calendar ahead.可知在新年前夜，西班牙人每吃一颗 葡萄代表午夜的每一击，每一击代表一页日历。由此可知，葡萄与财富无关。故选 B。 【32 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中 The length of the soba noodles is said to symbolize a long life.可知荞麦 面的长度据说象征着长寿。由此可知，日本人认为荞麦面的长度象征着长寿。故选 C。 【33 题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中 If you get the piece with the coin, you'll have good luck for a year.可知如果你得到了那枚硬币，你就会有一年的好运气。由此可知，在希腊，如果一个人得到一块蛋糕，里面藏着一枚硬币，他或她这一年将是幸运的。故选 B。 B In Return Recently, as I watched my son Nathan play basketball for his high school team, I started to feel sorry for myself and for him. His team was facing adversity(不幸) on the court and he was playing in a bad environment-it was the opponent’s home gym filled with their supporters, and Nathan's team was left behind for three quarters of the game. As for me, I had been fired earlier in the day. A career position I held for 14 years was the victim of corporate restructuring(公司重组). I was prepared for it as I had experienced the same thing 14 years earlier, but, just like a punch in the mouth, the blow is never softened because you were expecting it. As I watched the adversity on the court that my son was experiencing, I recalled my earlier events, packing up everything in a box and waving goodbye to a great group of colleagues with whom I'd had the pleasure of working. Driving home, I kept telling myself, “I will find work again in a short time-I am confident in my experience and abilities.” It was a belief I repeated to myself during a trying day and it was the same one that I tried to teach my son. The basketball game entered the fourth quarter. I saw the focus and determination on his face. There was no room for self-doubt. He fought back to go ahead by three points. After he made the basket, his team was able to hang on and stop the other team from scoring, and won the game. Nathan's joy on his face, the cheering from the crowd, the silence on the other side of the gym-it was a moment that would make any parent proud. As I sat there, my heart bursting with pride, it dawned(领悟) on me that I had taught him determination in the face of adversity, and he had just taught me the same lesson. That brief moment of self-doubt and feeling sorry for myself was blown away by the actions of my son on the basketball court. 34. What happened to the author 14 years earlier? A. He lost his job. B. He quitted his job. C. He worked in a bad environment. D. He was prepared for a career position. 35. In face of adversity, the author had taught his son the following beliefs EXCEPT_______. A. confidence B. focus C. self-doubt D. determination36. What is the author's purpose of writing paragraph 3? A. To criticize the unfriendly gym. B. To encourage himself to be confident. C. To amuse the readers with a funny sport event. D. To acknowledge Nathan's focus and determination. 37. What can we learn from this story? A. Success means getting personal desires satisfied. B. Little man can make a big difference. C. Fame is a great thirst of the young. D. You harvest what you sow. 【答案】34. A 35. C 36. D 37. D 【解析】 【分析】 这是一篇记叙文。主要记叙了刚遭遇失业的作者去看儿子打球，看到儿子同样面对逆境而感 到难过，回想起了自己之前的经历。但是最后儿子用作者教导的面对逆境时的自信、专注和 决心赢得了比赛，这也让作者意识到自己教会了儿子面对逆境的决心，而儿子也教会了自己 同样的道理。 【34 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中 As for me, I had been fired earlier in the day. A career position I held for 14 years was the victim of corporate restructuring. I was prepared for it as I had experienced the same thing 14 years earlier…可知至于我，我今天早些时候被解雇了。我做了 14 年的职业是公 司重组的牺牲品。我对此早有准备，就像 14 年前我经历过同样的事情一样……由此可知，作 者 14 年前失业了。故选 A。 【35 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中 Driving home, I kept telling myself, “I will find work again in a short time-I am confident in my experience and abilities.” It was a belief I repeated to myself during a trying day and it was the same one that I tried to teach my son.可知开车回家的路上，我不停地告诉自 己:“我很快就会再找到工作的——我对自己的经验和能力很有信心。”“这是我在艰难的日 子里不断对自己重复的信念，也是我试图教给儿子的信念。”由此可知，作者教导他的儿子 在逆境中要有自信；根据第三段中 I saw the focus and determination on his face.可知我看到他脸上的专注和决心。由此可知，作者教导他的儿子在逆境中要专注和有决心。只有 C 选项“自 我怀疑”文章中没有提到。故选 C。 【36 题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中 I saw the focus and determination on his face.可知我看到他脸上的专 注和决心。以及第三段中 Nathan's joy on his face, the cheering from the crowd, the silence on the other side of the gym-it was a moment that would make any parent proud.可知 Nathan 脸上的喜悦， 人群的欢呼，体育馆另一边的寂静——这是任何父母都会感到骄傲的时刻。由此可推知，作 者写第三段的目的是承认 Nathan 的专注和决心。故选 D。 【37 题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中 As I sat there, my heart bursting with pride, it dawned on me that I had taught him determination in the face of adversity, and he had just taught me the same lesson.可知 当我坐在那里，我的心充满了骄傲，我意识到我教会了他面对逆境的决心，而他刚刚教会了 我同样的道理。结合文章主要记叙了刚遭遇失业的作者去看儿子打球，看到儿子同样面对逆 境而感到难过，回想起了我之前的经历。但是最后儿子用作者教导的面对逆境时的自信、专 注和决心赢得了比赛，这也让作者意识到自己教会了儿子面对逆境的决心，而他刚刚教会了 自己同样的道理。由此可推知，D 选项“一分耕耘，一分收获。”符合文章主旨。故选 D。 【点睛】文章主题和中心思想的阐述往往需要大量细节信息的支持，这些细节对于理解全文 内容至关重要，同时也是归纳和概括文章中心思想的基础。命题人往往会要求考生根据不同 的要求阅读文章，以获得某些特定的信息，或准确地寻求所需的细节，并对细节进行直接或 间接辨认和理解。文章细节的理解可以细化为：（1）一一对应型。（2）语言转述型。（3）语 意理解型。（4）是非辨别型。（5）事实排序型。如第一小题，属于语意理解型，根据第一段 中 As for me, I had been fired earlier in the day. A career position I held for 14 years was the victim of corporate restructuring. I was prepared for it as I had experienced the same thing 14 years earlier…可 知至于我，我今天早些时候被解雇了。我做了 14 年的职业是公司重组的牺牲品。我对此早有 准备，就像 14 年前我经历过同样的事情一样……由此可知，作者 14 年前失业了。故选 A。 C On a windy day in early March, Fabiano Caruana decides to get away. He drives three hours west from his St. Louis apartment to a 2,000-acre field in the countryside of Missouri owned by a friend. At 7:30 the next morning, he heads out for an hour-long run with his training partner, Cristian Chirila. As he's jogging, it’s easy to mistake him for a soccer player. He has a packed schedule for the day: a five-mile run, an hour of tennis, half an hour of basketball, and an hour of swimming. But Caruana is, in fact, an American grandmaster in chess, the number two player in the world. His training partner, Chirila? A Romanian grandmaster. And they're doing it all to prepare for the physical demands of …chess? Yes, chess. It seems to make no sense. How could two humans-seated for hours, with no greater manner than off and on extending their arms a foot at a time-face physical demands? In October 2018, Polar, a U. S. based company that tracks heart rates, monitored chess players during a tournament and found that 21-year-old Russian grandmaster Mikhail Antipov had burned 560 calories in two hours-roughly what Roger Federer bums in an hour of tennis. Grandmasters in competition are subjected to constant stress. That causes their heart and breathing rates to increase, which forces their bodies to produce energy. Meanwhile, players eat less during tournaments, simply because they don't have the time or the appetite. Stress also leads to disturbed sleep patterns, which in turn cause more tiredness and can lead to more weight loss. A brain operating on less sleep, even just one hour, requires more energy to stay awake during the chess game. It all combines to produce an average weight loss of 2 pounds a day, or about 10 to 12 pounds over the course of a ten-day tournament. To fight against the stress, some players have begun to adopt strict food and fitness methods to increase oxygen supply to the brain during tournaments, prevent sugar-related crashes, and sustain their energy. " Physical fitness and brain performance are tied together, M Ashley says, a grandmaster and commentator(解说员). So back in Missouri, Caruana and Chirila hole up in the dining room for six hours of chess. Afterward, Caruana looks tired. Still, he grabs a handful of nuts and heads out for a final hour of tennis before dinner. After dinner, he passes on the chocolate pudding pie. “No dessert for me today”, he says. Last year, Caruana gave up alcohol before the world championship. This time, he has chosen sugar. In his mind, Caruana knows what he has to do: he just needs his body to hold up. 38. What do we know about chess players? A. They eat dessert for energy during the competition. B. They all have physical training during the tournament.C.

S. based company that tracks heart rates, monitored chess players during a tournament and found that 21-year-old Russian grandmaster Mikhail Antipov had burned 560 calories in two hours-roughly what Roger Federer bums in an hour of tennis. 可知 2018 年 10 月，总部位于美国的跟踪心率公司 Polar 在一场比赛中对棋手进行了监测，发 现 21 岁的俄罗斯特级大师 Mikhail Antipov 在两小时内消耗了 560 卡路里的热量——大致相 当于 Roger Federer 在一小时网球比赛中消耗的热量。由此可知，下国际象棋对棋手的体力要 求很高。故选 D。 【39 题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段 So back in Missouri, Caruana and Chirila hole up in the dining room for six hours of chess. Afterward, Caruana looks tired. Still, he grabs a handful of nuts and heads out for a final hour of tennis before dinner.可知回到密苏里州，Caruana 和 Chirila 在餐厅里玩了六个 小时的象棋。之后，卡鲁阿娜看起来很疲惫。不过，他还是抓了一把坚果，在晚饭前最后一 个小时出去打网球。由此可知，Caruana 是个很自律，有决心的人；根据最后一段中 Last year, Caruana gave up alcohol before the world championship. In his mind, Caruana knows what he has to do: he just needs his body to hold up.可知去年，Caruana 在世界锦标赛前戒酒了……在他的 脑海里，Caruana 知道他必须要做什么：他只需要他的身体来支撑。由此可推知，Fabiano Caruana 是个有决心和雄心的人。故选 C。 【40 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段 Grandmasters in competition are subjected to constant stress. That causes their heart and breathing rates to increase, which forces their bodies to produce energy.可知特级大师 在比赛中承受着持续的压力。这导致他们的心脏和呼吸频率增加，迫使他们的身体产生能量。 以及第七段 Meanwhile, players eat less during tournaments, simply because they don't have the time or the appetite. Stress also leads to disturbed sleep patterns, which in turn cause more tiredness and can lead to more weight loss.可知与此同时，球员在比赛期间吃得更少，只是因为他们没有时间和胃 口。压力还会导致睡眠模式紊乱，从而导致更疲劳，更容易减肥。由此可知，胃口不好、睡 眠不好以及在比赛中承受着持续的压力是国际象棋选手在比赛期间体重下降的原因。只有 B 选项“戒酒”不是国际象棋选手在比赛期间体重下降的原因。故选 B。 【41 题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章主要以世界排名第二的象棋大师 Fabiano Caruana 为例，说明了下国际 象棋对棋手的体力要求很高，因而象棋选手都要采取严格的饮食和健身方法。还分析了象棋 选手在比赛期间体重下降的原因。由此可知，A 选项“像大师一样训练”符合文章标题。故选 A。 D Do You Have Enough Time? Experiences are more likely than material goods to deliver happiness. But the fear of choosing to pursue the wrong experience, and therefore wasting valuable time, is something many of us feel deeply. There's something funny to this-we have more free time now but for a number of reasons, it doesn't feel that way. In his book Spending Time, Daniel Hamermesh explains that while our lifetimes have gotten a bit longer-13% since 1960-our spending power has increased by 198%. “It makes it difficult to stuff all the things that we want and can now afford into our limited available time to purchase and to enjoy them over our lifetimes,” he writes.Next, there's our cell-phone addiction. American adults spend around 3. 5 hours on their devices each day, trying to keep up with the emails, social media updates and 24/7 news. And much of our time is “contaminated time”-when we’re doing one thing but thinking about something else. It makes us think we're being productive, but really it just makes us feel more worn out. Add to this the ever expanding options in today's experience economy. Think of all the pop-ups, plays, workshops and escape rooms you could go to tonight. No wonder many of us suffer from what psychologists call “time famine”. No wonder we're seeing books about attaining more of our time and letting go of cell phones, like Jenny Odell’s How to Do Nothing. There've been calls to control the attention economy, but the factors that make us feel time-poor aren't going away anytime soon. Tech companies, for instance, may have built apps to tell you how much time you spend on your device, but their business models rely on your continued use. As for me, I have characterized experiences as "rubbish food" or "superfood”. Rubbish? Spending too much time indoors on Facebook or TV, alone. Superfood? Getting offline and outside and doing things for or with others and staying active. These experiences require that we actually take time off-not easy in a culture attaching so much importance to productivity. But researchers say sometimes it's about changing our thoughts of leisure activities. Harvard's Anat Keinan has found a helpful way: we're more likely to go camping if we acknowledge it will be good for our productivity at work. Similarly, we often choose uncollectable experiences that give us a story to tell, as we like to feel we're accomplishing something. Keinan has also argued that while we often feel good about ourselves by choosing work over leisure, in the long term we're likely to regret this, feeling we've missed out on “the pleasures of life. Time is our least renewable resource. It's good for us to consider if we're using it wisely. 42. Which of the following statements can best explain “contaminated time" in paragraph 4? A. Checking emails frequently. B. Scanning Twitter while watching TV. C. Looking up new words in the homework. D. Keeping up with the social-media updates. 43. Which of the following is NOT a factor that makes us feel time-poor? A. Our lifetimes have become longer than decades ago. B. We're too addicted to our mobile phones.C. Our spending power has sharply increased. D. There are an increasing number of things for us to experience. 44. The underlined word “famine” in paragraph 5 probably means _______. A. uselessness B. value C. management D. shortage 45. According to the passage, we should _______. A. cut down the eating of rubbish food and enjoy superfood more B. experience something relaxing if it adds to our work performance C. make wise use of time by choosing work over leisure activities D. use a time-management app to know how we spend our time 【答案】42. B 43. D 44. D 45. B 【解析】 【分析】 这是一篇说明文。文章指出经验比物质更能带来幸福。但我们很多人都深深感到，害怕选择 追求错误的体验，从而浪费宝贵的时间。文章说明了如今人们感到时间紧张的一些因素，以 及这些因素对人们的影响。文章最后提出时间是我们最不可再生的资源。如果我们明智地使 用它，这对我们是有好处的。 【42 题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中 when we’re doing one thing but thinking about something else.可知当 我们在做一件事，却在想其他事情的时候。由此可推知，B 选项“边看电视边刷推特”最能解 释“contaminated time”的概念。故选 B。 【43 题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中 In his book Spending Time, Daniel Hamermesh explains that while our lifetimes have gotten a bit longer-13% since 1960-our spending power has increased by 198%.可知 Daniel Hamermesh 在他的书《花费时间》中解释道，虽然我们的寿命比 1960 年长了 13%，但 我们的消费能力却增长了 198%。由此可知，我们的寿命比几十年前更长、我们的消费能力急 剧增加是我们感到时间紧张的因素；根据第四段中 Next, there's our cell-phone addiction.可知其 次，我们对手机上瘾。由此可知，我们太沉迷于手机是我们感到时间紧张的因素。只有 D 选 项“有越来越多的事情需要我们去经历”文章中没有提到是感到时间紧张的因素，故选 D。 【44 题详解】词义猜测题。根据后文 No wonder we're seeing books about attaining more of our time and letting go of cell phones, like Jenny Odell’s How to Do Nothing.可知难怪我们会看到关于获得更多时间 和放下手机的书，比如 Jenny Odell 的 How to Do Nothing。由此可知，我们许多人都遭受着心 理学家所说的“时间缺乏”，因此才出现了许多关于获得更多时间和放下手机的书。故划线单 词意思为“缺乏”。故选D。 【45 题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中 Harvard's Anat Keinan has found a helpful way: we're more likely to go camping if we acknowledge it will be good for our productivity at work.可知哈佛大学的 AnatKeinan 找到了一个有用的方法：如果我们承认露营对我们的工作效率有好处，我们就更 有可能去露营。由此可推知，如果想提高我们的工作表现，我们应该体验一些放松的东西。 故选 B。 【点睛】词义猜测题是高考阅读理解中常考题型之一，可以大致分为 ① 定义猜词，可以根据定义信息和举例猜测词义。如文中常用 refer to, be called 或 that's to say, such as 等。 ② 逻辑猜词可以根据同义词、反义词、因果关系词等猜测词义，例如，similarly, the same as, but, however, while, on the other hand, since ,because 等，所猜词与这些提示词前/后面部分的含义 一样、相反或是前因后果。 ③ 语法猜词，可以根据构词法，再结合上下文进行猜词。 ④ 语境猜词，猜测词义离不开上下文的语境，通过上下文提供的情景和线索进行合理的分析， 同时还要关注其所在的整段及整篇文章。 ⑤ 指代猜词即找出人称代词、指示代词、关系代词或关系副词等所指代的内容，做题时要注 意指代词的位置，以便于判断，然后用所找的指代内容替换划线代词，核实其逻辑、意义、 位置等是否一致，最后比较所找部分与选项，确定意思最接近的选项。 如第三小题，根据后文 No wonder we're seeing books about attaining more of our time and letting go of cell phones, like Jenny Odell’s How to Do Nothing.可知难怪我们会看到关于获得更多时间 和放下手机的书，比如 Jenny Odell 的 How to Do Nothing。由此可知，我们许多人都遭受着心 理学家所说的“时间缺乏”，因此才出现了许多关于获得更多时间和放下手机的书。故划线单 词意思为“缺乏”。故选D。 第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，共 10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选 项中有 两项为多余选项。 Sustainable Fabrics(织物) of the Future Choosing what to wear can be a difficult problem, especially if you5re a fashion victim. Trying to keep up with the latest styles involves regular visits to the shopping malls and sometimes paying for expensive designer clothes. But the fashion often changes. ___46___ Many stores now offer cheap “fast fashion”-low-price items that copy the styles of more expensive designer brands Environmentalists are angered by the amount of energy involved in making these clothes and that many of them are made from non- recyclable materials. ___47___ Eleanor Lawrie, a BBC reporter, says that people in the UK are the worst in Europe for getting rid of unwanted clothes every year. And she says, “On top of often poor labour conditions for workers, the fashion industry is also responsible for 20% of the world's waste water, and 10% of carbon emissions(排放).” This is something the fashion industry is becoming more aware of and has tried to find new crops of biomaterials to replace wasteful fabrics like cotton and leather. Examples include Pinatex, a leather-like material made from pineapple leaves. It's been used in collections by Hugo Boss and H&M. ___48___ It is being used to create food, packaging and clothes. ___49___ The current farming practice requires a massive amount of water and insect killer. Eleanor says, “About 15,000 litres of water are required to make one pair of jeans, while 95% of its material is cotton.” So, buying organic cotton is a better choice. And there is also Tencel, a natural product becoming increasingly popular. It's made by taking cellulose fiber(木质纤维素) from trees and its production is thought to use 95% less water than cotton processing. Professor Richard Blackbum from Leeds School of Design tells the BBC that creating sustainable fabrics is only part of the battle-buying reasonably, buying second hand and buying fewer clothes are obviously the more environmentally friendly choices for people. ___50___ If one can do that, he is starting to be sustainable. A. Cotton is a very resource-demanding crop to grow. B. And there's Mycelium, the root structure of mushrooms. C. Every year, a million tonnes of unwanted fabrics just get thrown away. D. Many of your clothes will then be left in the back of cupboards gathering dust.E. Recycled cotton can come from secondhand clothing or from fabrics' leftovers. F. This means the cheap fashionable items will have to be burned or go into landfill. G. One shouldn't consider buying any item of clothing unless he commits to 30 wears. 【答案】46. D 47. F 48. B 49. A 50. G 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了许多商店现在提供廉价的“快时尚”——模仿更昂贵的设 计师品牌的低价商品。环保人士对制作这些衣服所耗费的大量能源感到愤怒，因为许多衣服 是由不可回收的材料制成的。时尚界越来越意识到这一点，并试图寻找新的生物材料作物， 以取代棉花和皮革等浪费面料。同时举例说明了可以取代棉花和皮革等浪费面料的新的生物 材料。 【46 题详解】 根据上文 But the fashion often changes.可知但时尚总是在改变。由此可知，购买的昂贵名牌衣 服，因为时尚改变了，所以就被衣柜后面，积满灰尘了。故 D 选项“你的许多衣服就会被留 在衣柜后面，积满灰尘”符合上下文语境，故选 D。 【47 题详解】 根据上文 Environmentalists are angered by the amount of energy involved in making these clothes and that many of them are made from non- recyclable materials.可知环保人士对制作这些衣服所耗 费的大量能源感到愤怒，因为许多衣服是由不可回收的材料制成的。由此可知，这些不可回 收材料制成的衣服只能被焚烧或填埋。故 F 选项“这意味着便宜的时尚物品将不得不被焚烧 或填埋”符合上下文语境，故选 F。 【48 题详解】 结合上文 This is something the fashion industry is becoming more aware of and has tried to find new crops of biomaterials to replace wasteful fabrics like cotton and leather. Examples include Pinatex, a leather-like material made from pineapple leaves. It's been used in collections by Hugo Boss and H&M.可知时尚界越来越意识到这一点，并试图寻找新的生物材料作物，以取代棉花和皮革等 浪费面料。例如 Pinatex，一种由菠萝叶子制成的类似皮革的材料。Hugo Boss 和 H&M 的系列 都用过它。由此可知，本句承接上文列举可以用来取代棉花和皮革的新生物材料。故 B 选项“还 有 Mycelium，蘑菇的根结构”符合上下文语境，故选 B。 【49 题详解】 根据后文 Eleanor says, “About 15,000 litres of water are required to make one pair of jeans, while 95% of its material is cotton.”可知 Eleanor 说：生产一条牛仔裤大约需要 15,000 升水，而牛仔裤 95%的原料都是棉花。”由此可知，生产棉花非常耗费资源。故 A 选项“棉花是一种非常消 耗资源的作物”符合上下文语境，故选 A。 【50 题详解】 根据上文 Professor Richard Blackbum from Leeds School of Design tells the BBC that creating sustainable fabrics is only part of the battle-buying reasonably, buying second hand and buying fewer clothes are obviously the more environmentally friendly choices for people.可知利兹设计学院的 Richard Blackbum 教授在接受 BBC 采访时表示，创造可持续发展的面料只是战斗的一部分 ——合理地购买，购买二手货和购买更少的衣服显然是对环境更友好的选择。由此可知，本 句承接上文说明一个人应该少买衣服，故 G 选项“一个人不应该考虑买任何一件衣服，除非 他承诺要穿 30 件”符合上下文语境，故选 G。 第三部分 书面表达（共两节，35 分） 第一节（15 分） 51.假设你是红星中学高三学生李华,你的英国笔友 Jim 发来邮件，询问你校的 体育活动情况， 请给他回复邮件，内容包括： 1. 学校的活动项目； 2. 你最喜欢的活动及原因。 注意:1.词数不少于 50； 2.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Jim, ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Jim,It’s pleasure to receive your email asking me about the physical activities of our school and I’d love to share them with you.
