We’ve all had cases where we’ve waited just a bit too long to pay an electric bill or speeding
ticket. But one man, from California by reasonable assumption, who goes by “Dave”, recently
took procrastination (拖延) one step further, by paying a parking ticket almost a half-century
after it was given.
In December 2018, the Minersville Police Department in Pennsylvania received a letter in the
mail. Whoever wrote the letter decided it was best to keep his name somewhat unknown, so he
put the return address as “Wayward Road, Anytown California” under the name “Feeling guilty”.
When the officers opened the envelope, they found a brief letter, along with a $5 bill, and a
parking ticket dating all the way back to 1974.The note read, “Dear PD, I’ve been carrying this
ticket around for 40 plus years always intending to pay. Forgive me if I don’t give you my info.
With respect, Dave.”
Even though the initial parking ticket was only for $2, “Dave” must have felt awfully guilty
because he left 150 percent, or $3, in interest.
Michael Combs, the Police Chief of the Minersville Police Department, stated in an interview that
the same ticket would cost about $20 if it was given today. Combs went on to share that the
original ticket from 1974 was given to a vehicle that had an Ohio license plate.Because there was no system for tracking tickets given to out-of-state cars back then, “Dave”
could have gotten away with never paying the $2 fine. But apparently, guilt got the best of him,
and he decided to finally cough up the money more than 40 years past its due date.
24.How much do we know about “Dave”?
A.He lives in Wayward Road, Anytown California.
B.The police are trying to find out more about him.
C."Dave" is of course the man's real name indeed.
D.His car probably came from Ohio at that time.
25.Why didn’t “Dave” pay for the parking ticket until recently?
A. He didn't pay for it just because of procrastination.
B.He didn't find it until almost half a century later.
C.He failed to find out who he should pay the money to.
D. He completely forgot about it in the past 44 years
26.What drove “Dave” to pay for the parking ticket at last?
A. Fear of being tracked by the police.
B. A strong sense of guilty.
C.Worry about being fined more.
D.Sudden change of his financial situation.
27.Which of the following can be the best title?
A.Police Chief of the Minersville Police Department Shares a Story
B. Unusual Letter Comes from Wayward Road, Anytown California
C. Mysterious Procrastinator Finally Pays 44-Year-Old Parking Ticket
D.Parking Ticket Carried Around for Almost Half a Century from Ohio

Who cares if people think wrongly that the Internet has had more important influences than the
washing machine? Why does it matter that people are more impressed by the most recent
changes?
It would not matter if these misjudgments were just a matter of people's opinions. However,
they have real impacts, as they result in misguided use of scarce resources.
The fascination with the ICT (Information and Communication Technology) revolution, represented by the Internet, has made some rich countries wrongly conclude that making things
is so "yesterday" that they should try to live on ideas. This belief in "post-industrial society" has
led those countries to neglect their manufacturing sector(制造业) with negative consequences
for their economies.
Even more worryingly, the fascination with the Internet by people in rich countries has moved
the international community to worry about the "digital divide" between the rich countries and
the poor countries. This has led companies and individuals to donate money to developing
countries to buy computer equipment and Internet facilities. The question, however, is whether
this is what the developing countries need the most. Perhaps giving money for those less
fashionable things such as digging wells, extending electricity networks and making more
affordable washing machines would have improved people's lives more than giving every child a
laptop computer or setting up Internet centres in rural villages, I am not saying that those things
are necessarily more important, but many donators have rushed into fancy programmes without
carefully assessing the relative long-term costs and benefits of alternative uses of their money.
In yet another example, a fascination with the new has led people to believe that the recent
changes in the technologies of communications and transportation are so revolutionary that now
we live in a "borderless world". As a result, in the last twenty years or so, many people have
come to believe that whatever change is happening today is the result of great technological
progress, going against which will be like trying to turn the clock back. Believing in such a world,
many governments have put an end to some of the very necessary regulations on cross-border
flows of capital, labour and goods, with poor results.
Understanding technological trends is very important for correctly designing economic policies,
both at the national and the international levels, and for making the right career choices at the
individual level. However, our fascination with the latest, and our under valuation of what has
already become common, can, and has, led us in all sorts of wrong directions.
28.Misjudgments on the influences of new technology can lead to __________.
A. a waste of limited resources
B.a slow progress in technology
C.a conflict of public opinions
D. a lack of confidence in technology 29.The example in Paragraph 4 suggests that donators should __________.
A. make their programmes attractive to people
B. take people's essential needs into account
C.ensure that each child gets financial support
D. provide more affordable internet facilities
30.What has led many governments to remove necessary regulations?
A.Neglecting the impacts of technological advances.
B. Ignoring the power of economic development.
C. Believing that the world has become borderless.
D.Over-emphasizing the role of international communication.
31.What can we learn from the passage?
A.People should be encouraged to make more donations.
B. Making right career choices is crucial to personal success.
C. Traditional technology still has a place nowadays.
D.Economic policies should follow technological trends.
D
If you could have a superpower, what would it be? Other than flying and communicating with
someone from his mind (which, let’s be honest, would probably actually be awful), breathing
underwater is one of the favorites. You can hang out with Aquaman and Ursula, and when the
end of the world comes and we’re all living under water, you’ll be fine.
With this in mind, a student at the Royal College of Art, London has designed a 3D-printed
amphibious garment called AMPHIBIO — essentially a set of gills(鳃) — for this very purpose.
According to Jun Kamei, a biomimicry designer and materials scientist, it is "for a future where
humankind lives in the water".
With the world set for a global temperature increase of 3.2°C (5.7°F) by 2100, rising sea levels
are a very real threat to large coastal cities, potentially affecting up to 2 billion people — or 26
percent of the current global population.
Kamei’s little device uses a specially designed porous(多孔的) material that fills oxygen again in
the water and releases carbon dioxide. It is inspired by water-diving insects that create their own
little scuba diving set by creating a protective bubble of air around their body thanks to their water repellent(防水的) skin.
The technology is easily 3D-printable too, which will be great when we need them together.
These "gills" could replace heavy and clumsy scuba equipment, making it more similar to free
diving but for longer. This could have immediate applications for underwater rescue plans — the
12 boys rescued by divers from a flooded cave in Thailand, for example, where it took weeks to
work out how to get the boys and the vital breathing equipment through those narrow tunnels.
So far, the tech has only been tested as a working prototype, not actually on humans, so the
dream may have to be on hold for now. And scaling up and testing on humans is Kamei’s next
plan. This may sound unbelievable, but Kamei insists he has a much more optimistic vision of the
future.
32.What can be inferred about Aquaman and Ursula?
A.They can read minds.
B. They often cause huge disasters.
C. They can breathe underwater.
D.They can’t live underwater.
33.What can we learn about AMPHIBIO?
A. The designer drew his inspiration from nature’s hidden design.
B.Its user can communicate with others from their mind.
C.It is the unique useful tool against the threat of rising sea levels.
D. It can produce oxygen in the water.
34.Why did the author mentioned the rescue of the boys in Thailand?
A.To present the success of the new device.
B.To compare the new device with the old one.
C. To show the new device is easily 3D-printable
D. To prove the advantage of the new device..
35.What is the author’s attitude to the future of the new design?
A. indifferent. B. Objective C.Doubtful. D.Critical.

项。Last summer over 12,000 fans were at Wembley Arena in London, shouting and cheering.
Thousands more were watching online. 36__ It was esports, or competitive computer gaming.
Millions of people in the UK play computer games for fun. Some of them have become
professional gamers, playing games as their full-time job. 37 They practice for ten or more
hours a day, five or six days a week. They do exercises like typing something and trying to type it
faster and faster. They also study videos of other players and plan ways to beat them.
___38 Are players athletes? Some say no. Esports players don’t need to run, jump, throw or
do big physical actions. At the moment, the UK government classifies esports as kinds of games,
not as sports.
But others say yes: esports are sports. Players do need some physical skills, especially hand-eye
coordination, reflexes, accuracy and timing. If darts, snooker and shooting are classified as sports,
then perhaps esports should be too.
39_ And they will be an official medal sport in the Asian Games starting from 2022.
Next step: the Olympics?
For many esports fans and players, though, the most important thing is that esports are growing in
popularity and importance. 40 _
A. If esports are not as important as sports now, they definitely will be in the near future.
B. But are esports really sports?
C. All like playing computer games.
D. It’s not easy being a professional gamer, though.
E. But this wasn’t a football, basketball or tennis match.
F. It is certain that esports will come into the 2024 Olympics.
G. In fact, China and South Korea do classify esports as sports.第三部分 语言知识运用(共 2 节,满分 45 分)

接着下文提到在泰国营救男孩的例子是为了进一步证明这种新设备的优势。故选 D。35. 推
理判断题。根据最后一段内容 So far, the tech has only been tested as a working prototype, not
actually on humans, so the dream may have to be on hold for now. And scaling up and testing on
humans is Kamei’s next plan. This may sound unbelievable, but Kamei insists he has a much more
optimistic vision of the future.(到目前为止,这项技术还只是作为一个工作原型进行测试,还
没有在人体上进行,所以这个梦想可能要暂时搁置。Kamei 的下一个计划是扩大规模并 在
人体上进行测试。这听起来可能难以置信,但 Kamei 坚持认为他对未来有更乐观的看法。)
可知,作者只是客观论述这项新设计未来的情况,没有发表自己的看法,因此作者的态度是
客观的。故选 B。

完型填空答案:41-50 CBADC ADBCB 51-60 DCBDA DACBA
41.后文可知,作者是一名护士,所以在职业生涯中会见到死亡。
42.根据短语 have an impact on sth. 以及句意可知答案为 A。difference 虽然可以表示影响,但
是短语搭配是 make a difference to/in。43.根据上文中的 no idea 可知作者没有想到死亡对她的影响,所以是转折关系。
44.第二段对 John 的描述可得知,John 是一个垂死患者,所以选 struggling。
45.John 已经垂死,所以心脏衰竭,failing 可以表示器官衰竭的含义。
46.根据上下文,医护人员可以做的只能是让他舒适以及减轻他的症状。decrease 侧重大小数
量上的减少,语意不符。comfort 宾语通常是人。disappear 为不及物动词,不带宾语。
47.该题为词汇复现题,下文中有提到睁开眼睛朝作者微笑,再根据句子的谓语动词 was 可知
答案是 smile。
48.由后文可知,作者被告知 John 病情恶化,并且陪 John 走过了生命的最后几个小时,这一切只
能是发生在 John 的病房里,既 ward。
49.词汇复现题。后文有提及几个小时后,John 便离开了人世。
50.作者是握着 John 的手陪他说了六个小时的话。其他选项语意均不通顺。
51.由前文的 but 可知 John 不需要止痛药,所以是处于很平和的状态。
52.由上下文可知,John 已经病危,在生命最后的一段时间里,他非常地平静,只是偶尔睁眼对作
者报以微笑。
53.医护人员帮 John 洗了脸梳了头。
54.从后文可知,几分钟后,John 就去世了,所以可得知医护人员对他说的话是“放手,安心地离去
吧”。let go 有放手、放开之意。其余选项均不符合上下文意思。
55.John 死后的二十年里,作者作为护士看见了不计其数的死亡,即 countless。constant 表示动
作的持续,不符合文意。
56.作者的实习经历讲述了医护人员对患者的关心和照顾,所以此处应该是医护人员帮助患者,
做了很多工作范围之外的事情,即超出了工作的预期。
57.医护人员做出超出工作预期的事情是为了确保临死的患者可以走得安详舒坦。
58.此处描述的是作者对 John 的记忆,这么多年过去了,作者对 John 依旧记忆犹新,John 的一切
依旧历历在目。所以选 vivid 表示“生动清晰的”。前文中的 beautiful 是用来形容 John 的笑容,
放在这里不合适。
59.由作者对实习经历的描述可知医护人员对患者是进行照顾,即 care for。
60.作者的实习经历教导了作者:医护人员对待垂死患者的方式是一件非常重要的事情,即
matter 表示“要紧、重要”。
