More than any other writer, he laid the foundations for the famous literary style known as socialist realism. In this kind of writing, the author uses literary techniques to create the impression of reality in his or her writings.‎ March 16 this year marked the 152th anniversary of Gorky's birth.‎ He was born into an ordinary life but soon became an orphan, before being raised by his grandmother in poverty. As he grew older, he would take a job and then quickly move on to another. He tried many jobs, but the one that he seemed to love the most was being a journalist.‎ It was in this job that he gained a particular impression of the world — that it was horribly inequitable in its treatment of the poor. It was a world, therefore, that had to go. Gorky was naturally attracted to the political movement of Marxian social democracy（民主）.He knew many revolutionaries including the most important one of all, Vladimir Lenin （1870-1924）. The two became friends in 1903 and The Song of the Stormy Petrel was one of Lenin's favorite works by Gorky.‎ Asa writer, Gorky naturally valued literature. But lie also valued life experience, of which he had plenty. The key to being a modem person, he thought, was to acquire a critical attitude: “Keep reading books, but remember that a book's only a book, and you should learn to think for yourself, " he once said.‎ ‎24. What can we learn about Gorky's childhood?‎ A. He lived an extraordinary life. B. He tried few jobs.‎ C. He led a hard life. D. He grew up by himself ‎25.

He valued critical thinking. B. He was of little influence.‎ C. He was easy to bow before difficulties. D. He discounted life experience.‎ ‎27. What is the text mainly about?‎ A. Gorky and his family. B. The hardship Gorky experienced.‎ C. Gorky's famous works. D. Gorky's influence in literature and his life.‎ C Rainbow-coloured rubbish is the colourful waste created by a Swedish city with a unique recycling system。. Like many cities in Sweden, Eskilstuna has an impressive recycling record. It met the EU's 2020 target of recycling 50% of waste many years ago.‎ Almost everyone who lives here follows a strict recycling policy at home. People are expected to sort their household waste into seven separate categories, including food, textiles, cartons and metal. But what really makes the system stand out is the bright colour code.‎ The reason for this becomes clear at the city's recycling plant. The bags arrive all jumbled up（被混在 一 起）because they're collected altogether, once a fortnight from outside people's houses.‎ But thanks to those bright colours, scanners can select the bags and separate them efficiently. The food waste in green bags is processed on site into slurry to make biogas, which powers the city's buses. One of the benefits of this method of recycling is that there is less cross-contamination, so more of the recycled waste can actually be used to make new things.‎ Like the rest of Sweden, Eskilstuna is committed to sending zero waste from its citizens to landfill. Waste that cannot be recycled is incinerated（焚化）at a local plant to generate electricity. This reduces reliance on fossil fuels, but docs create greenhouse gases. ‎ As countries around the world try to improve their recycling rates, some may think of Eskilstuna as an example to follow, as long as they think they can persuade their citizens to get busy sorting at home.‎ ‎28. What can we say about the recycling system used in Eskilstuna?‎ A. It is a colorful policy. B. It is a temporary success.‎ C. It is an ordinary recycling system. D. It is a practical method of recycling.‎ ‎9. What really makes the system of rainbow-colored recycling outstanding?‎ A. The strict recycling policy. B. The self-discipline of citizens.‎ C. The bright colour. D. The eco-friendly code.‎ ‎30. Why is the non-recyclable waste burnt to ashes at a local plant in Eskilstuna?‎ A. To send zero waste to landfill. B. To make electricity.‎ C. To reduce dependence on fossil fuels. D. To decrease greenhouse gases ‎31. What can we infer from the last paragraph?‎ A. Some countries set a good example to Eskilstuna.‎ B. Eskilstuna follows in the footsteps of other countries.‎ C. Some countries may adopt the system of rainbow-colored recycling.‎ D. Eskilstuna may force its citizens to get busy sorting at home.‎ D Modem agriculture and its ability to feed billions of people may be one of humanity's greatest achievements. However it comes with hidden costs. For example, have you ever considered how much water is needed to provide you with a steak or a salad? It may surprise you.‎ In a recent study published in the journal Nutrients, scientists from the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization(CSIRO). Australia's national science organization, took a close look at the diets of 9,341 adult Australians — specifically, their "water-scarcity footprints(水消耗足迹)". It turns out that a sweet tooth not only adds to our waistlines but also stresses our water resources.‎ The water-scarcity footprint is a widely recognized measurement of water consumption. First, it counts the liters of water you used. Then, it looks at the place where the water was used. Using a liter of water in the desert is not the same as using a liter of water in a tropical rainforest. The more scarce water is in your area, the larger your water-scarcity footprint.‎ The scientists found that the average Australian's diet had a water-scarcity footprint of 362 liters per day. Snacks and beverages — cookies, cakes, sodas and alcohol — accounted for 25 percent of the water-‎ scarcity footprint. The research also included a glass of wine (41 liters), a single serving of potato chips (23 liters), and a small bar of milk chocolate (21 liters).‎ Not surprisingly, cutting down on snacks would be the top priority if we wanted to lower our own water-scarcity footprint.‎ Earth's surface is 70 percent water, but only 2.5 percent of that can be used for drinking or farming. While humanity faces an uphill battle to feed its growing population, climate change is causing droughts and extreme weather in agricultural centers like California and eastern Australia. Cities aren't safe, either. In 2018, Cape Town, South Africa, nearly ran out of water due to a drought. Its freshwater reservoir(储藏)stayed at just above 13.5 percent of full capacity. By 2030, a world of about 8.6 billion people will need 35 percent more water, 40 percent more energy, and 50 percent more food, according to the United States National Intelligence Council.‎ So, we need to watch what we cat, not just for our personal health but for the health of our societies.‎ ‎32. Scientists find from their studies that .‎ A. Modem agriculture has the ability to feed billions of people B. A steak or a salad consumes much water C. A sweet tooth puts pressure on water resources D. Snacks consume 85 liters of water per day ‎33. What is the public's attitude to the water-scarcity footprint as a way to measure water consumption?‎ A. Doubtful B. Approving C. Negative D. Indifferent ‎34. The author develops the sixth paragraph mainly .‎ A. by explaining an experiment B. by analyzing a problem C. by making comparisons D. by listing numbers ‎35. What is the best title for the text?‎ A. Water-scarcity footprint is measured B. Water waste starts with snacks C. Water resources are reduced D. Water consumption faces an uphill battle 第二节 七选五（共5小题；每小题2分.满分10分）‎ The average person comes down with three colds a year, each lasting for about nine days. There is still no effective treatment but the following advice may help.‎ Take time off school, because your body will fight off the cold virus better if it is well rested. However, if you have to go, avoid close contact with your classmates.36 Meanwhile, wash your hands as frequently as possible. Nomsedating（非镇静的）allergy medicine, which you can buy from a chemist, can ease the problems of a runny nose and watery eyes.‎ As soon as you feel a cold coming on, drink plenty of liquid. Water or juice is ideal but hot herbal teas with lemon will help thin sticky substance and remove it from the body. A warm gargle with salt water will make your throat more comfortable by reducing the swelling. 37 ‎ ‎38 Breathing in steam over a bowl of hot water helps a lot, too.
