A
The promise of college in America is the promise of a clear path to the future, of a reward for
all the sleep deprivation and soul-deadening competition of high school, and, most of all, of instant
adulthood. As of April, 2020, however, none of that is happening due to the outbreak of the novel
coronavirus (新型冠状病毒).
Saminah Haddad, a seventeen-year-old senior at Long Beach Polytechnic High School, wasn’t
expecting her college offers until later in the spring. This year, there will be no spring season, which
for Haddad means no four-year college. She is considering Long Beach City College, which is free
for state residents. She also lost her job at an amusement park. All of the senior-year milestones that
Haddad had been looking forward to have been cancelled: prom, graduation, and an event called the
“Pursuit of Excellence Awards,” where she would have been recognized for perfect attendance. She
doesn’t yet know if she’ll still be working this summer for her father, who was about to open a juice
bar in Brooklyn.
In the meantime, Haddad’s school is offering some online instruction, but in her case the course
load has dropped to just two classes: A.P. Literature, which meets virtually, and a government class,
which consists of written assignments that she receives by e-mail. Haddad is planning to take her
A.P. exam, though she finds it hard to imagine what the forty-five-minute, cell-phone-friendly
version of the test will be like. No one knows how colleges will view it, either.
Life has been emptied of content, and the plot is lost. She texts with friends. She argues with
her mom and stepdad a lot. “It’s bringing us closer together,” she half joked “But it’s O.K..”
21. What can be known about Haddad from Paragraph 2?
A. She has applied to study abroad. B. She will attend a graduation
ceremony.
C. She won’t work in her father’s juice bar. D. She may get her college offers in
late spring.
22. How does Haddad feel about the A.P. exam?
A. Doubtful. B. Bored. C. Excited. D.
Nervous.
23. In which section of a newspaper may the passage appear?
A. Family. B. Society. C. Education. D.
Health.B
Noah Higgs hated learning Irish in school. He hated the way it was taught, overly formal and
disconnected from ordinary people’s lives. Most of all he hated the effect the lessons had on his
fellow students’ willingness to speak the language. But the Dublin native never lost his love for
Irish, nor his opinion that more people should be learning the language.
Today, almost 40% of the 7,000 languages spoken worldwide are endangered, according to the
United Nations. More are going extinct every year. It was once widely feared that the Internet
revolution would accelerate this decline. If developers and smartphone manufacturers aren’t willing
to invest in supporting minority languages, that would cut off people who speak them from an
important way to communicate and trap those languages in the past.
Higgs, 23, though, is one of a small group of educators and activists reinventing how minority
languages are taught and preserved online by using cutting-edge technology.
When he was 17, Higgs had a “crazy teenage idea”. He had begun using Duolingo, a mobile
language-learning app, to study French, and wondered if the creators had considered adding support
for Irish.
At the time in early 2013, there were five languages on Duolingo, the smallest of which, Italian,
has an estimated 67.9 million speakers worldwide. By comparison, at its height in the 18th century,
there were an estimated four million Irish speakers. Today the figure is closer to 1.2 million.
“I didn’t get a reply,” Higgs said.
But his email wasn’t ignored. Inside Duolingo’s open-plan, Silicon Valley-style headquarters in
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, change was going on. Within five years, the language startup would build
a library of over 30 languages, including some of the most endangered on the planet.
24. What was the public concern over the Internet revolution?
A. People’s less contact in real life. B. The negative effect on the
lessons.
C. Fewer ways of learning languages. D. The decline of endangered
languages.
25. What was Higgs’ “crazy teenage idea”?
A. Turning to Duolingo to study French. B. Teaching minority languages on
the Internet.
C. Asking Duolingo developers to support Irish. D. Using cutting-edge technology
to preserve Irish.
26. What can be learned from the last three paragraphs?
A. Higgs’ email went unnoticed. B. Duolingo improved its service.
C. Duolingo’s headquarters changed. D. Irish was on the point of dying
out.C
A desire among many seniors is to “age in place.” Aging in place is a term used to describe a
person living in their own house, for as long as they are able to, as they age. Yes, the familiarity of
your current home is the advantage of aging in place, but the potential financial drawbacks to
renovate (翻新) the house might actually be more costly than the long-term benefits.
40 years ago, with a growing family, you probably purchased a 4-bedroom child-friendly house.
Now, with kids moving out, you might be thinking about changing one of your bedrooms into a
massive master bathroom, and another into an open-space reading area. You might also be thinking
about cutting back on lawn maintenance (草坪维护) by installing a pool surrounded by beautiful
paving stones. It all sounds wonderful, doesn’t it? For the short term, you may really enjoy the new
upgrades, but you’ll still have to climb those stairs, pay to heat and cool a home that’s larger than
what you need, and continue fixing all the things that start to go wrong with a 40-year-old home.
Last month, in their Retirement Report, Kiplinger addressed the point, “Renovations are just a
part of what you need to make aging in place work for you. While it’s typically less expensive to
remain in your home than to pay for assisted living, that doesn’t mean it’s a slam dunk to stay put.
You’ll still have a long to-do list. You need to plan ahead for how you will manage maintenance and
care — for your home, and for yourself.”
So, at some point, the time may come when you decide to sell this house away. That can pose a
big challenge if you’ve already take cash value out of your home and used it to do the type of
renovation we mentioned. The family moving into your neighborhood is probably similar to what
your family was 40 years ago.
27. Why do many seniors want to age in place?
A. They are familiar with the house. B. They can enjoy long-term
benefits.
C. They can live as long as they desire. D. They are likely to avoid
financial trouble.
28. What do the seniors renovate the houses mainly for?
A. Preparing for aging in place. B. Making it more energy-efficient.
C. Cutting back on the necessary cost. D. Making full use of the space
available.
29. What is conveyed in the Retirement Report?
A. Aging in place turns out to be very rewarding. B. Renovating the house calls for a
lot of money.
C. Assisted living deserves wider public attention. D. Aging in place is more than
renovating the house.
30. What can be the author’s advice for those wishing to age in place?
A. Take life as it is. B. Think before you act.C Better late than never. D. Enjoy life to the fullest.

根据短文内容，从短文后的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。
A little battery puts out a little bit of electricity, so you can use it safely for your experiments.
But the electricity that comes through the wires in your house or school is much more powerful.
31
Inside the walls where you live or study, there are big wires that carry electricity. When you
plug in a light or radio or other electrical appliance, you are putting the light or radio in the path way
of the electricity. You have heard adults say, “Don’t stick your finger into the wall plug.” Now do
you know why? 32 Your body is a pretty good conductor of electricity. The electrical
current coming through the wires to the wall plug is so strong that it would hurt a lot if you stuck
your finger in the plug.
Think: Why should you never put your fingers into the socket (插座) where the light bulb is
fixed into a lamp? 33
Put your finger in there and it could be you, rather than the light bulb, that becomes part of the
electrical path way. And that would hurt!
What if you held a piece of metal, like a fork or knife, and stuck it into the wall plug? Don’t do
it. Why? It’s because metals conduct electricity. And you would get a terrible shock!
34 Can you think why? It’s because water is a good conductor of electricity. When
your hands are wet or when your body is in a bathtub full of water, the electricity could flow right
through you and give you an awful shock, or even kill you.
Electricity is very useful, but it can be dangerous. Be careful, be safe and be smart. 35
A. Let electricity help you, not hurt you.
B. Keep yourself away from the electricity.
C. Therefore, you need to remember some safety rules.
D. Don’t touch any electrical appliance when you are wet.
E. Make your home as safe as possible for kids with these tips.
F. If you did, you would become part of the electrical path way.
G. That’s the place where the electricity flows into the light bulb.

阅读下面短文, 根据所给情节进行续写, 使之构成一个完整的故事。
It was a rainy November morning. Overcome with anger I knew if I didn’t leave the house soon
I would lose my temper with my husband, Joe. As rain came down in sheets, Joe offered to take me
to work. I struggled into my jacket, seized my bag and teaching plans and ignored him.
He insisted and reached for his boots.I looked at the piles of newspapers and the dirty dishes
still on the table. “Don’t you have enough to do? I can take care of myself.” I stormed out, not even
kissing him good-bye. Joe shouted after me not to take the shortcut (捷径).
Joe and I had been eagerly looking forward to our retirement when a heart attack that past
spring forced him to leave his job earlier than we had planned. As the medical bills mounted we
realized I would have to continue working full-time while Joe stayed home and took over the
housework.
The new arrangement was a disaster. Exhausted after a day of full work, all I wanted was a hot homecooked meal and a good night’s sleep. However, what greeted me at the table was a microwave
package. Sometimes he would serve oatmeal ( 燕麦) for several nights in a row. One night when I
dragged myself to bed, I was terrified to discover Joe had turned our white sheets blue. He told me
he had fond out how to save on water, soap and electricity. He patted his blue trousers and
announced proudly washing everything together was just the secret.
Ten minutes later, ignoring Joe’s warning I turned off the main route (道路), I thought it hadn’t
rained enough to flood the road, but as I rounded the corner water rushed across my path. After a
few feet, the car got stuck. I opened the door and water poured in. I hurriedly closed the door. I
couldn’t risk walking in this. Almost 20 minutes passed. The car began to shake. I got frightened to
death when I heard three long honks (喇叭声).

Possible version 1:
Dear Gary,
I’m writing in response to your request for information about Chinese pronunciation. I’m
pleased to provide you with answers to solve your problem.
Hello Talk is a suitable app for you. It has a collection of audio materials covering various
levels. It also offers a voice recorder tool, with which you may record your pronunciation and
compare it with that of a native speaker.
With the app, you will definitely make great progress. Best wishes!
Yours,
Li Hua
Possible version 2:
Dear Gary,
Hearing that you encounter several problems in Chinese learning,I' d like to offer you my
suggestions.
An app called HiChinese is my top recommendation. It features dialogues in real life context,
which will ensure you a good command of daily useful expressions. Besides, keeping a dictionary at
hand is also a must for you. Hence, I highly recommend The Modern Chinese Dictionary in which
various meanings of the same word are exemplified in detail.
Wish you every success in your Chinese learning.
Yours,
Li Hua

Dear Gary,
Happy to know that you're studying Chinese recently, I’m writing to answer your request in
your letter.CCTV 4 is a choice second to none, where you can be completely exposed to authentic
pronunciation of Chinese as well as daily conversations. As for writing Chinese characters, you can
search bookstores for “The Beginner’s Guide to Chinese Calligraphy” and practice it as instructed.
Hopefully, the information above will be of some help to you.

One possible version：
Paragraph 1:
Looking over my shoulder, I stared into the flashing lights of a truck. It was Joe! l couldn’t
help bursting into tears. Joe shouted to me not to be frightened. Then he threw a thick rope so that l
could hang on to it and walk straight toward him. I opened the door, grabbed it and inched out.
However, a sudden fall left me in the rushing water. I struggled to my feet, only to find a branch
blocking the way right in front of me. (73 words)
Paragraph 2:
I screamed that I couldn’t make it. Joe, however, remained calm! He urged me to take one step
at a time and assured me l could make it. I moved forward slowly and cautiously before l fell into
his arms. Sobbing against his chest, I apologized that I shouldn’t have taken the shortcut. Joe patted
me saying his primary concern was my safety. Only then did I realize Joe actually understood how to
take care of me despite his trouble with the housework. (77 words)

Today I’d like to talk about electronic cigarettes. Electronic cigarettes are battery-operated
devices. They are designed to deliver nicotine and other chemicals to users in steam, while
traditional cigarettes deliver nicotine in smoke by burning tobacco. E-cigarettes are often promoted
as safer alternatives to traditional cigarettes,but little is actually known yet about the health risks of
using these devices. Although they do not produce tobacco smoke,e-cigarettes still contain nicotine
and other potentially harmful chemicals. The health consequences of repeated exposure to these
chemicals are not yet clear. Some people believe e-cigarette products may help smokers lower
nicotine addiction when they are trying to quit their tobacco use.
However, at this point it is unclear whether e-cigarettes may be effective. In addition, there is
currently no regulation of the liquids that are used in e-cigarettes. So, there are no accepted measures
to confirm their purity or safety.
