一、阅读理解(本大题共15小题,共30.0分)
A
Wondering what the meaning of life is ? Good news- you'll probably feel like you know when you're around age 60 . That's the age when people report feeling that there's the most meaning in their lives, and they have the least need to search for meaning, according to a recently published research.
The research also found that as people's sense of meaning in life rises, so does their well-being."People with purpose in life are physically and psychologically healthier," said Dr. Awais Aftab, a psychiatrist, who led the research.
Aftab and his colleagues used data from a study of adults in San Diego County that recruited (招募) a large number of people aged 70 and older. This survey included a question about the level of meaning people found in their life and the level of their search for meaning. The 1 ,042 adults included in the study also answered questions over the telephone about their mental and physical health.
The results showed that both sense of meaning and search for meaning tend to be U-shaped over a person's lifetime. Presence of meaning starts low in the 20s and gradually rises to a peak around age 60 , on average, before declining again. The search for meaning is a mirror image : It starts high in people's 20s and drops to an all-time low
21
around age 60 before climbing in older age.
"Young adults in their twenties and adults in their thirties are actively seeking out careers, friendships,and romantic relations hips," Aftab wrote in an email to Live Science. People in their forties and fifties usually have more established careers and relationships ; many of them have families and children. After age 60 , with retirement and increasing health issues, the established sources of meaning in their lives begin to fade and people tend to start searching for other sources of meaning.
1. Which of the following is a finding of the research ? ______
A. People's sense of meaning in life increases with age.
B. Healthier people tend to lead a more meaningful life.
C. The level of search for meaning is fairly high in youth.
D. The levels of meaning and search for meaning correspond.
2. Which group probably have the strongest sense of meaning in life ? ______
A. People over 70 years old living alone.
B. Young adults in their 20s still hunting for a job.
C. People in their 50s with stable careers and families.
D. Retired people in their 60s with various health problems.
3. What is the last paragraph mainly about ? ______
A. The results of fading life purposes.
B. The reasons behind the research findings.
C. The lessons young adults should learn early.
D. The influence of age on people's life purposes.
B
At 5:12 am on April 18, 1906, people living in San Francisco were awakened by a 40-second earthquake. After a 10-second stop, an even stronger earthquake struck, lasting 25 seconds. Survivors saw the ground move in waves as high as three feet. The earthquake damaged streets, and streetcar rails.
21
Fires broke out soon after the earthquake, caused primarily by overturned stoves (炉子) or damaged electrical wiring. Because the city’s water mains had suffered more than 300 breaks, no water was available (可用的) to fight the fires, which rapidly burned beyond control. To control the fire, firefighters began to dynamite (炸毁) buildings in its path. Unfortunately, this method sometimes spread the fire. By the evening of April 18, 1,700 soldiers had arrived in San Francisco to help both local people and the firefighters.
After burning uncontrolled for three days, the fire finally burned itself out by the morning of April 21. More than 28,000 buildings had been destroyed, resulting in about $500 million in damage.
Although the official number of deaths was 311, it is now believed that about 3,000 people were killed. About 250,000 people (two-thirds of the city’s population) were left homeless. They were forced to live in tents (帐篷) in public parks.
Among the earthquake’s survivors was the famous Italian opera singer Enrico Caruso. On the night of April 17, he had performed (表演) the role of José in Georges Bizet’ s 1875 opera, “Carmen,” and had been scheduled for another performance on April 18. Caruso was so shocked by the earthquake that he made up his mind never to return to San Francisco again.
Ansel Adams, age 4, survived the earthquake along with his family, though their house and many things were damaged. An aftershock threw young Adams face-first into a garden wall, giving him what his friend Cedric Wright would call an “earthquake nose.” Describing his broken nose, which was never repaired, Adams would later joke, “My beauty was damaged forever. But he felt the power of the quake, which he called his “closest experience with terrible human suffering.”
1. What made it difficult to control the fire?
A. Damaged streets.
B. Fallen buildings.
C. The big problem of getting water.
D. The low number of firefighters.
2. What was the situation like after the earthquake?
21
A. Dead bodies could be found in public parks.
B. More than half of the locals had to find shelter.
C. Over 250,000 people had to live on the street.
D. About 28,000 buildings survived with little damage.
1. How did Enrico Caruso feel about the earthquake?
A. Completely lost. B. Very frightened.
C. Really annoyed. D. Extremely sad.
2. What.happened to 4-year-old Ansel Adams?
A. He was laughed at by his friend.
B. His family members were hurt badly.
C. His looks were unexpectedly changed.
D. He got injured while trying to protect his nose.
C
The Pharos, the great lighthouse of Alexandria, was one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. It stood on the island of Pharos, in the harbor of the city of Alexandria. In 290 B.C, Ptolemy I Soter, the ruler of Egypt, ordered the building of the lighthouse. Twenty years later, it was finished−the first lighthouse in the world and the tallest building on Earth except the Great Pyramid of Egypt.
The Pharos was designed by Sostrates, a Greek architect. Sostrates wanted to leave his name on the base of the lighthouse. But Ptolemy refused, ordering that only his own name appear on the building. But Sostrates found a way to do that. At the base of the Pharos, Sostrates left a message containing his own name. Then he covered it with plaster (建筑石膏) and left Ptolemy's name over it. After many years, the plaster disappeared and people knew the true architect of the lighthouse.
In 1302 and 1323, two strong earthquakes hit Alexandria, and the lighthouse was damaged. In 1326, it finally fell into the sea. Much of what we know about the lighthouse comes from the writings of Arabs who once visited the Pharos.
The Pharos was about 384 feet tall, the same height as a modern 40-storey building. At the top of the lighthouse stood a large statue of Poseidon, the Greek god of the sea. Under it was a
21
beacon, the source of light for the lighthouse. The Pharos used two kinds of beacons. At night, a large fire created the light. During the day, a huge mirror made use of the sunlight to create the light.
It was said that the mirror was also used to set enemy ships on fire as they entered the harbor by directing the sun’s rays (sunlight) at them. Although it is clearly impossible, the idea is interesting.
1. Why did Sostrates use plaster at the base of the Pharos?
A. To follow Ptolemy's orders.
B. To hide his name left on the base.
C. To protect the base from damage.
D. To make the lighthouse more beautiful.
2. How long had the Pharos stayed standing?
A. For about 800 years. B. For about 1,000 years.
C. For about 1,600 years. D. For about 2,000 years.
3. What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. The lighthouse. B. The statue.
C. A large fire. D. A huge mirror.
4. What can be a suitable title for the passage?
A. Sostrates and Ptolemy.
B. The function of an old lighthouse.
C. The Pharos, a wonder of the ancient world.
D. The architect of an old lighthouse.
D
We humans used to think that our ability to use tools made us different from all other animals. But then we found out that chimps use tools, too, such as sticks to gather distant snacks and rocks to hammer open nuts. And some birds use tools — like brainy New Caledonian crows (乌鸦), which can collect multipart tools to solve puzzle boxes presented to them by researchers.
21
Now we’ve learned that a different group of birds — seabirds — can also use tools. Scientists spied on Atlantic puffins, the distinctive birds with bright orange beaks (鸟喙). And in 2014 the observers spotted one floating on the sea off Wales, scratching (抓挠) its back with a stick. Then, in 2018, the researchers caught another tool-using puffin on camera, on Iceland’s Grímsey Island. In the short video clip, a puffin can be seen grabbing a stick with its beak and then using it to scratch its chest — perhaps to remove one of the seabird ticks (蜱虫) living on the island that summer.
The details about puffins’ superb ability are in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Study author Annette Fayet told Scientific American in an e-mail that these two instances don’t prove that seabirds are highly intelligent — though they could be smarter than we thought. But what is certain, she says, is that puffin populations are crashing, and it’s largely the fault of us and our tools — which have led to overfishing, climate change, marine pollution and the presence of invasive species, all of which make seabird life harder. It would be nice to keep puffins and other birds around and find out just what else we don’t know that they’re able to do.
1. What do we know from the first paragraph?
A. Chimps are smarter than other animals.
B. Crows are the cleverest birds in the world.
C. Some animals are smarter than originally thought.
D. Mammals and birds are cleverer than other species.
2. What ability do puffins have according to the findings?
A. To float on the water. B. To treat some diseases.
C. To kill island insects. D. To make use of a stick.
3. What else does the study about puffins show?
A. They possess high intelligence.
B. They have been endangered for long.
C. Their number is decreasing very fast.
D. Their existence affects other sea animals.
4. What do Annette Fayet’s words imply?
21
A. It is necessary to protect seabirds like puffins.
B. Humans are to blame for some species’ extinction.
C. Scientists have known more than they need about birds.
D. Enough evidence has been collected to prove puffins’ value.
二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)
A powerful magnitude 7.1 temblor rocked Southern California at 8:19 PT on July 5, 2019, just 34 hours after a magnitude 6.4 earthquake hit the same area. This latest event was widely felt. (1) Aftershocks are expected to continue.
Earthquakes are also called temblors. (2) It’s hard to imagine they happen by the thousands every day around the world, usually in the form of small tremors. Some 80% of all the planet’ s earthquakes happen along the rim (边缘) of the Pacific Ocean. (3) That is because of a lot of volcanic activity there, as well.
Scientists give a magnitude rating to earthquakes based on the strength and duration of their seismic (地震的) waves. A magnitude of 3 to 4.9 is considered minor or light; 5 to 6.9 is moderate (中等的) to strong; 7 to 7.9 is major; and 8 or more is great.
(4) Some 10,000 people die in earthquakes every year. Earthquakes may also lead to other natural disasters. Smaller temblors that usually happen in the days following a large earthquake can cause further death and damage. (5)
A.It is called the “Ring of Fire”.
B.They can cause huge damage.
C.Protect yourself as quickly as possible.
D.In fact, a magnitude 8 quake strikes somewhere every year.
E.Loss of life can be avoided through planning and education.
F.One important way is to try to make your home as safe as possible.
G.It caused several fires and damage to buildings and roads in Ridgecrest and nearby.

五、任务型读写(本大题共1小题,共25.0分)
1. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使其构成一篇完整的短文。
“I hate them! I really hate them!” shouted Tom angrily.
Tara and Mike looked at their friend. They couldn't believe it. He was really furious!
“Andy is OK now,” said Tara, trying to calm Tom down.
The three friends were in the park after school. They were talking about their friend Andy. Andy was the youngest in the class and today two bullies (欺凌者) pushed him against a locker and hurt him. Andy fell and cut his head. Now he has five stitches(缝针) in his forehead.
Their school was a nice, peaceful place until Brian and Mark arrived a few months ago. Brian and Mark were bullies and their favorite trouble spot was the locker room. That morning their victim was Andy, maybe because he was smaller and younger than everyone else in the class.
The teachers knew that there were some bullying incidents at school. But most kids didn't want to report the incidents. So bullying at their school wasn't an “official” problem.
During the incident Andy cut his head. As soon as the bullies saw the blood, they disappeared. Andy called for help and a teacher came and took him straight to the hospital. But Andy didn't tell the teacher about the bullies. When the head teacher asked him,he simply said, “I fell and cut my head.”
“Brian and Mark must pay!” repeated Tom. He was walking around in circles and hitting the palm of his left hand with his right fist. “Can't you see? You are behaving like the bullies,” Tara said sadly. Mike looked at Tom, too, and he knew Tom very well. Tom hated violence. “Bullying is not cool,” said Mike, waving his arms like he was dancing. “We have to tell someone about this,” said Tara. “Andy was hurt.”
21
But right now, Tom had other things on his mind. He not only hated the bullies but also hated violence. He was in a dilemma — he wanted to fight Brian and Mark but he didn't want to fight with the bullies by violence.
注意:
(1)所续写短文的词数应为150左右;

3. 由前面的The Chinese Writing System可知,空格处用writing作定语,修饰名词system,故填writing。
4. at the beginning是固定短语,意为“从一开始,起初”,因此空格处用at,位于句首,首字母大写,故填At。

10. 空格处用形容词修饰名词language,language为物,修饰物用ing形容词,即amazing,意为“令人惊异的”,在句中作定语,故填amazing。
37.【答案】“What can we do?"Tom and his friends decided to find a way out. It seemed that they had to solve the problem in a sensible and civilized way. “Listen guys," said Tom.“I've got a plan."“What is it?" asked both Tara and Mike with interest. "We can send messages to our friends and ask them to re-send the text to someone else. In this way, we can create a network."said Tom. The three friends talked about this idea for the whole afternoon and their idea gradually turned into a solid plan.
The three friends started to put their anti-bully plan into practice. Tom wrote a message on his Facebook, appealing to all to take anti-bully action. All the people were impressed and wanted to stop the bullies for good. One day when Brian and Mark attempted to play their old tricks again, someone reported the incident to the police immediately. Soon two police officers came and took them back to investigate. Tom and his friends learnt something important — you are never too young to make a difference.
