第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分 35 分）
第一节：（共 10 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 25 分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该
项涂黑。
A
In the icy Himalayas, user kebi057 on TikTok, a video sharing platform, shows people around
the world about everyday life in Tibet.And people are definitely taking a look. He has over 236,000
followers and nearly 4 million likes for his videos-clips of himself pulling his sled with his dog,
preparing food and, in his most popular video, building a “natural refrigerator” out of ice blocks-to
the amazement of people in the comments, who were amazed at his ice box.
When lockdown went into effect earlier this year,many people turned to TikTok to pass the
time.The short-video platform has now hit over 2.6 billion downloads globally and was the most
downloaded app of 2020,according to mobile app analytics firm App Annie.
The pandemic is part of the reason for surging TikTok popularity. “It's been a bleak year for
many people. Much of the content you see on TikTok is fun, upbeat and a welcome break from the
day-to-day realities of the COVID crisis,"says Damian Radcliffe, a professor at the University of
Oregon who researches digital trends.
With TikTok's growing popularity,digital researcher Damian Radcliffe says one of the biggest
issues the app is facing globally is the spread of misinformation on its platform. “We've already seen
the app -like many other platforms-filled with conspiracy(阴谋） theories, misinformation around
elections and misinformation related to the COVID vaccine and the wider health crisis," he explains.
In India,TikTok launched a campaign called MatKarForward to tackle the issue of
misinformation. The topic,which has received over 3.7 billion views,encourages users to stop and
think before forwarding videos that promote fake news, such as COVID-19 “homemade” remedies
and various conspiracies.
21.What's the author's purpose of writing paragraph 1?
A. To introduce the topic of the text.
B. To arouse the interest of the readers.
C. To present how enjoyable life is in Tibet.
D. To describe the popularity of a particular user.
22.What does the underlined word in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Pleasant.
B. Confusing.
C. Depressing.
D. Meaningful.
23.What's the author's attitude towards Tiktok's dealing with misinformation?
A. Negative.
B. Objective.
C. Optimistic.
D. Ambiguous.
B
Automakers around the world,from Japan to Texas,are struggling with a global shortage of
computer chips. Volkswagen sounded the alarm about the growing problem last month. Now more
automakers are reporting problems that are trimming production plans based on their supply of
semiconductors(半导体）.
Semiconductors are at the heart of our phones and computers, but they're critical components
for new cars,too-and not xue just in fancy touchscreens. “They're controlling the engine and the
emissions and even in the switches for ke wang raising and lowering your windows,” says Kristin
Dziczek, the vice president at the Center for Automotive Research.
Last year, when auto manufacturing was suspended for the pandemic, everyone predicted a
prolonged slowdown in car sales. The global semiconductor industry planned accordingly, and
arranged to sell more computer chips to other buyers.But then, much to everyone's surprise, shoppers
were still eager to buy new cars.As soon as they reopened, plants resumed normal production at a
remarkable speed.
At the same time, demand for chips from other sectors-like consumer electronics- was also
increasing. “Every school district in the country had to buy new computers,"Dziczek says.
For car shoppers, this could mean some vehicle models are harder to find for the next few
months. So far,the consequences have been uneven among automakers. Ford and Fiat Chrysler have
entire plants on pause,while General Motors says its manufacturing operations have not been
affected,and Toyota does not expect any impact to employment.The United Auto Workers,which
represents factory workers at Ford, GM and Fiat Chrysler plants, notes that its contracts include
“unemployment and supplemental pay” for workers affected by production downtimes.
24. In what ways can semiconductors not be applied in cars?
A. In the engine system.
B. In fancy touchscreens.
C. In the emission system.
D. In the switches of car doors.
25.What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. It'll be harder for shoppers to find a dream car.
B. The contracts are not beneficial to the workers.
C. Toyota is expected to face employment problem.
D. All the automakers have paused the entire plants.
26.Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. A Dream Car Is Not A Dream
B. The Growing Popularity Of Semiconductor
C. Semiconductor Won't Hurt Chip Production
D. Auto Production Disturbed By Chip Shortages
C
What have eight legs, hunt among a group of fish and can throw a mean sucker punch(猛击）？
According to research published in Ecology last week, the answer would be octopuses.Octopuses
punch fish. Deliberately.
The first time researcher Eduardo Sampaio witnessed this phenomenon,he laughed.Normally
that'd be fine but at the time he was underwater wearing scuba (水肺潜水） equipment. “I almost
choked on my regulator,” he said in an interview with NPR's Morning Edition. “When I saw it for
the first time,I just burst out laughing.”
The octopus is typically a solitary creature,but sometimes an octopus might take part in a
hunting party made up of fishes. A grouper's(石斑鱼）gestures, for example, can clue(提示）an
octopus into the location of prey.Sampaio and his co-researchers were studying this mutually
beneficial behavior when they came across an octopus punching fish while hunting.
Although researchers have observed octopuses punching fish before, the behavior happening in
the context of a hunting party is new. And it can come suddenly, out of nowhere,Sampaio said.“You
can see there some punches are almost like a small boop,” Sampaio said. “And the other ones that
even the whole arm curls up and uncurls afterwards, you know, like the motion of a boxer doing a
punch.”
The punches are fairly rare, so it's not so easy to observe, he said. The research prompts many
questions he said, like “Is there a xkw species that the octopus prefers to punch?” In some cases, the
researchers were able to determine the reason the underwater bully decided to strike. Sometimes it's
a partner-control mechanism,Sampaio explained,to drive the fish away from the octopus' next meal.
Or it can be to control where the fish is swimming. Or it can be a form of punishment, he said. And
sometimes the eight-legged creature just punches the fish-with no noticeable motivation.
27.How did Eduardo Sampaio feel when he first witnessed the phenomenon?
A. Shocked.
B. Amused.
C. Frightened.
D. Concerned.
28.How does Sampaio explain the process in paragraph 4?
A. By making a comparison.
B. By introducing a concept.
C. By referring to another study.
D. By quoting an expert's words.
29.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. Octopuses tend to attack a specific fish species.
B. Octopuses punch fishes with clear aims each time.
C. Octopuses will dismiss the fish which's its next meal.
D. Octopuses are not very often to be spotted punching fishes.
30.Where is the text probably from?
A. A research paper.
B. A political report.
C. A science magazine. D. An autobiography.

One of the greatest biologists the world has ever seen was Charles Darwin. Darwin was born to
a middleclass family in Shrewsbury,England, in February,1809.His father was the leading doctor of
the town.
31 He loved to walk through the woods looking at plants and birds. At the proper age, he was
admitted into Shrewsbury School.There he studied Latin,classical literature,and ancient
history.Young Charles thought that these subjects were dull and useless.He would have preferred
scientific studies.As a result, he did poorly.
In 1825,at the age of sixteen,Darwin was sent to Scotland to study medicine.32 He once wrote
to his sister that his medical courses were completely stupid. By then,Darwin's father knew that his
son would never become a doctor.
Darwin's father then sent him to Cambridge to become a clergyman(牧师）. During his
Cambridge years,Darwin loved to collect beetles(甲虫）, but to him it was only a hobby. He didn't
take it seriously. 33 That was Professor John Henslow,the head of the Botany Department.
Somehow,Darwin managed to graduate from Cambridge in 1831. Upon graduation,Professor
Henslow arranged for him to go with Captain Fitzroy on a survey trip around the world.During the
voyage, Darwin collected rocks, bones, and insects. He took many notes on all that he observed.34
The widely believed theory in those days was that God created each creature separately and
individually. 35 In it, he explained his theory of evolution by natural selection. The theory was
instantly and very strongly attacked. Darwin was accused of destroying religion and insulting(侮辱）
the human race.Today,however,Darwin's theory is considered to be one of the major discoveries of
modern science.
A. One person at Cambridge, however, did.
B. As a boy,Darwin showed a great interest in living things.
C. He studied there for two years and continued to do poorly.
D. Shrewsbury was a busy market town surrounded by rich farmlands.
E. In 1859, Darwin published his famous book On the Origin of Species.
F. The thoughts that led to his theory of evolution were beginning to form.
G. By the time Darwin died in 1882,he was recognized as one of England's greatest scientists.

The Water of Life
It was one of the hottest days of the dry season. We had not seen rain in almost a month. The
crops were dying. Cows had stopped giving milk. The creeks and streams were long gone back into
the earth. It was a dry season that would bankrupt several farmers before it was through. Every day,
my husband and his brothers would go about the tiring process of trying to get water to the farm. If
we didn't see some rain soon, we would lose everything.
It was on this day that I learned the true lesson of sharing and witnessed the only miracle I have
seen with my own eyes. I was in the kitchen making lunch for my husband and his brothers when I
saw my six-year old son, Billy, walking toward the woods. He wasn't walking with the usual
carefree abandon of a youth but with a serious purpose. I could only see his back. He was obviously
walking with a great effort trying to be as still as possible. Minutes after he disappeared into the
woods, he came running out again toward the house. I went back to make sandwiches, thinking that
whatever task he had been doing was completed.
Moments later, however, he was once again walking in that slow purposeful stride toward the
woods. This activity went on for over an hour: walking carefully to the woods, and then running
back to the house. Finally, my curiosity got the best of me. I crept out of the house and followed him
on his journey.
He was cupping both hands in front of him as he walked, very careful not to spill the water he
held. Maybe two or three tablespoons were held in his tiny hands. I sneaked closer as he went into
the woods. Branches and thorns slapped his little face but he did not try to avoid them. He had a
much greater purpose. As I leaned in to spy on him, I saw an amazing sight. A mother deer with a
huge pair of deer horns appeared in front of him, with a baby fawn (幼鹿） lying on the dry ground.
I almost screamed to get him away.
