They are probably the longest-standing and biggest rivals (对手) in international sport— Chinese badminton player Lin Dan, with his deadly smashes (扣球) and drop shots, and his Malaysian rival Lee Chong Wei, who is known for his spirit and determination.
Over the years, the two have competed with each other many times, and both have experienced victory and defeat. But Lin beat Lee the first two times they faced each other in the Olympic Games—in Beijing in 2008 and then in London in 2012.
And that was inadmissible for Lee. In fact, according to BadmintonBlaze.com, Lee once said that if he had the choice between winning an Olympic gold and beating Lin, he would absolutely choose victory over his old rival.
And he eventually did, at the 2016 Rio Games. When he beat Lin that day, Lee dropped to the floor, covered his face with his hands and looked around the stadium like a gold-medal moment although Lee eventually lost out in the final to another Chinese player, Chen Long.
All the years of trying to outdo each other have not only driven Lin and Lee to surpass (超
越) themselves as players, but also developed a special friendship between the two.
They care for and encourage each other. They invited each other to their own weddings. And right before this year’s Malaysia Open, Lee, who wasn’t able to compete there on account of his nose cancer, wrote on social networking site Facebook, “My friend Lin Dan, you have my best wishes for this Malaysian Open. If I were to hope for a non-Malaysian to win the men’s singles title, I hope that it’s you my friend, my greatest rival.”
Lin and Lee are now pushing 36 and 37 respectively—ages by which most athletes would
have retired—but they are planning to compete at the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games, in the hope that they can play each other once again.
It’s as Badminton Association of Malaysia vice president David Wee once said of the two,
“they bring out the best in each other”.
24. Which phrase can best describe their relationship?
英语试题 第10页(共 10 页)
A. Familiar strangers. B. Friends and enemies.
C. Colleagues and rivals. D. Teammates and competitors.
25. What does the underlined word “inadmissible” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Unacceptable. B. Inescapable. C. Unexpected. D. Impossible.
26. What did Lee’s reaction at the 2016 Rio Games indicate?
A. He mistakenly believed he had won the gold medal. B. He was confident to defeat Lin Dan next time.
C. He didn’t care about the Olympic gold medals.
D. He took his victory over Lin most seriously.
27. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Lin ranks second to Lee in the world badminton.
B. Lin is sure to compete against Lee at the 2020 Olympics.
C. Lee has no intention to quit playing badminton in spite of his nose cancer. D. Lee wished Lin to win the men’s singles title in this year’s Malaysia Open.
C
While the human world is suffering from the novel coronavirus outbreak, our planet is actually showing certain signs of “recovery” from the damage caused by human activity. According to the BBC, new satellite images released by the European Space Agency showed that levels of air pollutants and greenhouse gases have “fallen sharply” in major cities in Europe and the United States ever since the lockdown started.
This is what happened after recent discoveries in Antarctica. An international team of 89 scientists found that the ice in Greenland and Antarctica is melting six times faster in the 2010s than it was in the 1990s. And in February, Argentina’s Marambio research station in Antarctica recorded a record high temperature of 20.75 ℃ on the continent.
So what exactly will happen if the temperature keeps rising and the ice keeps melting? A
third study might give you an idea. A team of scientists drilled a hole into the seafloor in west Antarctica and extracted (提取) material from underground, in which they found traces of roots, spores and pollen—typical products of a rainforest—that dated back 90 million years ago. In other words, Antarctica was very likely a rainforest back when the dinosaurs walked on Earth. But given the fact that the South Pole has four months of darkness during winter—even millions of years ago—scientists believe that the rainforest could only exist if the greenhouse gas concentrations were extremely high back then to keep the continent warm when there was little or no sunlight.
“We didn’t know that this Cretaceous (白垩纪的) greenhouse climate was that extreme,” Johann Klages of the Alfred Wegener Institute in Germany and a co-author of the research told the Guardian. “It shows us what carbon dioxide is able to do.”
Ice or no ice, Antarctica will be—and has always been—fine with extreme changes. The human world, however, may not be.
英语试题 第10页(共 10 页)
Now, during the coronavirus lockdown, we’ve seen the changes resulting from less human activity. Hopefully, we’ll hold on to those changes—not for Antarctica or the planet, but for ourselves.
28. What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us?
A. Our planet is returning to its original state due to the novel coronavirus outbreak. B. The lockdown of major cities contributed to the decrease of greenhouse gases.
C. The novel coronavirus has a positive effect on the human beings. D. The novel coronavirus outbreak resulted from human activity.
29. What do we learn from the third study?
A. Typical products of a rainforest were dug out in Antarctica.
B. Traces of dinosaurs living in rainforests were spotted in Antarctica.
C. There was a good possibility of high greenhouse gas concentrations in Antarctica. D. There used to be enough sunlight for the rainforest in the Cretaceous Antarctica.
30. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A. Human activity doesn’t threaten life in Antarctica.
B. The ice in Antarctica is melting faster in the 2010s than now.
C. We should reduce carbon dioxide emissions for our own sake.
D. The lockdown can be carried on to slow down global warming.
31. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To encourage us to defeat the novel coronavirus. B. To explain the effects of greenhouse gases.
C. To draw our attention to ecosystem in Antarctica.
D. To call on us to reduce human impact on the environment.
D
Researchers from the MIT Media Lab, Boston Children’s Hospital, and Northeastern University used a robotic teddy bear, “Huggable”, across the Boston Children’s Hospital. More than 50 hospitalized children were divided into three groups that involved Huggable, a tablet-based virtual Huggable, or a traditional toy teddy bear. In general, the robotic Huggable improved various patient outcomes over the other two choices.
When first designed, Huggable was operated remotely by a specialist outside a child’ s room for the moment. Through software, a specialist could control the robot’ s facial expressions and body actions. The specialists could also talk through a speaker—with their voice automatically changed to sound more childlike—and monitor the participants via camera.
During the treatments involving Huggable for kids aged 3 to 10 years, a specialist would sing nursery rhymes to younger children through the robotic bear and move the arms during the song. Older kids would play the I Spy game, where they had to guess an object in the room described by the specialist through Huggable. Through self-reports and questionnaires, the researchers recorded how much the patients and families liked Huggable. A greater percentage of children and their parents reported that the children enjoyed playing with Huggable more than with the virtual figure or traditional teddy bear.
英语试题 第10页(共 10 页)
The study proved the possibility of including Huggable in the treatments for children. Results also showed that children playing with Huggable experienced more positive emotions overall. They also got out of bed and moved around more, and emotionally connected with the robot, asking it personal questions and inviting it to come back later to meet their families. “Such improved emotional and physical outcomes are all positive factors that could contribute to hospitalized children’ s better and faster recovery,” the researchers write in their study.
The study also provided a basis for developing a fully autonomous Huggable robot, which is the researchers’ final goal. In the future, that automated robot could be used to improve children’ s further treatment and care, and monitor their well-being.
32. What can we learn about Huggable?
A. It was first designed for disabled kids. B. It can make facial expressions.
C. It talks like a caring parent. D. It works automatically.
33. How did the children find Huggable?
A. Favorable. B. Conventional. C. Disappointing. D. Unhelpful.
34. How did Huggable help the hospitalized children with their treatment?
A. It improved their mental experience. B. It protected them from possible virus.
C. It gave tips on taking good care of young patients.
D. It provided up-to-date information about their diseases.
35. What is the text mainly about?
A. The fast development of robots in medical area. B. A new technology in medicine to treat children.
C. Robots’ advantages over other methods of treatment.
D. A robotic teddy bear used in caring for hospitalized children.

When you try too hard but you don’t succeed; when despite all your efforts you don’t get the results you need, give up and move on. 36 Confused? What is wrong with giving up?
Oh yes, we all have been trained and conditioned to work hard to achieve our dreams, and that is a good thing. The problem arises when all these inspirational quotes start confusing us. These messages tell people not to give up, 37 They tell one to “ try and try again” until they succeed, but that amount of effort should only be put toward what you really want in life and one should never quit at what they think to be their life’s purpose. 38 If you suck at piano and you know it’s because you don’t even like the instrument, give it up. If no matter how hard you study you can hardly score an above average grade, don’t worry, your
英语试题 第10页(共 10 页)
talent lies somewhere else. Not everybody is an A-student.
39 Find out what you are good at, what makes you happy and then work on it. If you do, no one would have to tell you or inspire you not to give up because when you love something, you keep trying until you get it right and the enthusiasm flows from within. Don’t worry about what people will say or think, after all, it’s your life. 40
A. Let go of your life goal and live in the moment.
B. You have to live it and you have to be your own boss.
C. Try to recognize your talent, your ability and your skills. D. and it proves that only efforts can make a big difference.
E. Make timely adjustment and run in the opposite directions.
F. The rest is all just there to confuse and depress you, so don’t let it.
G. but they don’t tell you that it should only apply to your true dreams.

Mild laughter, even one or two whistles 51 from the silence. “Wow.” “Cool!”
“But I am new.” I murmured, “I think I need your 52 more than you need mine...” “So, what are the four little 53 in the character ‘rain’?” Rosie asked.

The forest of my hometown is beautiful no matter how the season is. I was driving slowly in this morning when I saw a deer live in the woods appear in the middle of the road. I came to the full stop, and we stared at each other. His eyes seemed wisely. He had been in this world for some month and I didn’t want end his life. Finally, I motioned with my hand for him to go on. Having seen anything to fear, he jumped across the road.
