on July 31, 2020 during the 23rd Shanghai International Film Festival. The
market aimed to create a more efficient platform for communication and
business between film and TV companies during the COVID-19 pandemic
(大流行病). It was well received and attracted more than 700 exhibitors, about
half of which were from overseas. Running through Aug 5, the market featured
online exhibitions of films and TV programs, and a variety of online services,
including copyright and insurance consulting.
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, the first movie in the popular
Harry Potter series, returned to China with a 3D version on Aug 14, 2020, as

Chinese writer Zijin Chen, was released on the online streaming platform
iQiyi on June 16, 2020. It was about a murder crime witnessed by three children.
The 12-episode mystery drama was streamed with two episodes each evening
from Tuesday through Thursday every week.
Disney’s fantasy war drama film Mulan was postponed again to August
amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The China-set live-action film was
first scheduled to hit US theaters on March 27 but was later rescheduled to
July 24 due to the pandemic. Hollywood studios delayed nearly all of their
big-budget movies in the United States and other countries as theaters were
shut down in an effort to fight against the coronavirus.

San Francisco chef Cecilia Chiang, who was a pioneer of Chinese cuisine in the United States,
died Wednesday. She was 100. Chiang was the owner, chef and mastermind behind the
game-changing San Francisco restaurant, the Mandarin. She is widely credited with bringing real
Chinese food to America and was a celebrity chef before celebrity chefs were popularized.
Chiang, who was born near Shanghai, came from an upper-class Chinese family. Although she
wasn’t shy about acknowledging her good fortune, she faced other difficulties. Convincing the
dining public that Chinese food didn’t have to be Thursday’s cheap take-out option, Chiang had her
work cut out for her.
“Most Americans, including American-born Chinese, they didn’t know about Chinese food,”
Chiang explained in an interview with CNN Travel in 2018. Never having been to China, they
needed to be educated on the difference. The year was 1961, and Chiang insisted on showing diners
the delicate side of Chinese food. The restaurant’s wine list, filled with Chinese cultural elements,
was part of her strategy. Chiang said she wanted to upgrade the Chinese dining experience. To do
this, she also needed to be fully aware of aesthetics (美学).
The Mandarin, which would later occupy a much larger space in Ghirardelli Square, wasn’t like
other Chinese restaurants. “Is this a Chinese restaurant?” Chiang said people asked her all the time.
The Mandarin did not serve chop suey or chow mein, two standard dishes on every Chinese
restaurant in the US at the time. But this is exactly what Chiang wanted to avoid. In fact, her early
brushes with Chinese food in America had left her unimpressed and determined to show San
Francisco what Chinese food was really like.
Not only was Chiang a woman trying to run a restaurant in a male-controlled industry, but she
was also attempting to educate diners. Changing people’s minds was complicated. And, Chiang, who
had been retired some 20 years when she died, at one point remarked that not a single existing
restaurant could compare to the Mandarin.
24. What does the underlined part mean in the second paragraph?
A. Chiang had to give up her job.
B. Chiang refused to be involved.
C. Chiang faced a challenging task.
D. Chiang achieved her aim with ease.

Despite the common appearing of tablet computers and e-readers, we simply cannot break our
addiction to paper. An estimated four billion trees are cut down every year to make paper or
cardboard, an energy-consuming process with a vast environmental footprint. Now chemist Yadong
Yin of the University of California, Riverside, and his colleagues have developed “rewritable” paper
that could help control that impact.
Printed rewritable paper is made using Prussian blue nanoparticles (纳米粒子). The researchers
coated conventional paper with nanoparticles of two chemicals: Prussian blue that gives blueprints
their characteristic color, and titanium dioxide (二氧化钛), a substance used in sunscreens.
UV light makes the titanium dioxide nanoparticles donate electrons (电子) to their Prussian
blue neighbors, shifting its color from midnight blue to milky white.
By shining that UV light through a transparent (透明的) screen marked with black text, the
researchers “printed” blue text on a white background. The text lasts about five days and then
naturally fades away: “Every morning I could just push a button, and a printer would give me a fresh
newspaper to read over breakfast,” Yin says.
The paper can also be reset by heating and reused more than 80 times, a significant
improvement over previous types of rewritable paper. “The key advantages are high reusability and
stability, easy handling and low cost,” says Sean X. Zhang, a materials scientist at Jilin University in
China, who was not involved in the study but has also worked on developing rewritable paper. By
comparison, technologies such as electronic ink — used for Amazon’s Kindle Paperwhite — involve
moving charged black-and-white particles around, which requires electronics.
Since reporting their invention in Nano Letters early this year, the scientists have used a digital
projector to replace their transparent screen. They are now working on increasing the number of
times the paper can be reused. Zhang says a key difficulty will be persuading companies to develop
the unconventional UV control needed for widespread use. Even though commercialization could be
a few years away, Yin says, “We’ve had a lot of discussions with industry investors.”
28. What does the underlined “that impact” in the first paragraph refer to?
A. Human beings’ addiction to paper.
B. Common appearance of e-readers.
C. Green and sustainable environment.
D. A vast environmental footprint.

The vaccine (疫苗) news continues to seem very encouraging. Britain started its mass
vaccination effort and the U.S. isn’t far behind.
But there is still one dark cloud hanging over the vaccines that many people don’t yet
understand.
The vaccines will be much less effective at preventing death and illness in 2021 if they are
introduced into a population where the coronavirus is still severe — as is now the case in the U.S.
A vaccine is like a fire hose (消防龙头). A vaccine that’s 95 percent effective, as Moderna’s
and Pfizer’s versions appear to be, is a powerful fire hose. But the size of a fire is still a bigger
determinant of how much destruction occurs.
At the current level of infection in the U.S. (about 200,000 confirmed new infections per day), a
vaccine that is 95 percent effective — distributed at the expected pace — would still leave a terrible
toll (伤亡人数) in the six months after it was introduced. Almost 10 million or so Americans would
catch the virus, and more than 160,000 would die.
This is far worse than the toll in a different situation where the vaccine was only 50 percent
effective but the U.S. had reduced the infection rate to its level in early September (about 35,000
new daily cases). In that case, the death toll in the next six months would be kept to about 60,000.
It’s worth pausing for a moment on this comparison. If the U.S. had maintained its infection
rate from September and Moderna and Pfizer had announced this fall that their vaccines were only
50 percent effective, a lot of people would have panicked.
But the reality we have is actually worse.
How could this be? No vaccine can get rid of a pandemic immediately, just as no fire hose can
put out a forest fire. While the vaccine is being distributed, the virus continues to do damage.
There is one positive way to look at this: Measures that reduce the virus’s spread — like
mask-wearing, social distancing and rapid-result testing — can still have great consequences. They
can save more than 100,000 lives in coming months.
32. How does the author mainly present his argument?
A. By giving definitions.
B. By categorizing facts.
C. By drawing comparisons.
D. By appealing to emotions.

阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余
选项。
Your success as a manager can be determined by how you interact with people. The role of a
manager as a leader is an important part of these interactions. Leadership involves influencing
colleagues so that they follow a given direction or goal. 36
The first is the “people function”. Here leadership helps to hold a group together and maintain
the motivation of the group. 37 In this role the leader will ensure the group has
sufficient funds to carry out its tasks. So a leader should be seen to have influence both outside the
group and within the group.
Next comes the “task function”. Here leadership involves deciding what the tasks of the group
of employees are and then making sure that they are carried out successfully.
The third is the “strategic function”. 38 A group of workers that knows what
they are trying to achieve will be more efficient and better motivated than a group that doesn’t know
what it’s supposed to be doing.
39 For example, how much power the manager has over the group, how well the
manager knows the systems present in an organization and how many personal contacts the manager
has within the organization.
Good communication is another crucial element to successful leadership. A good leader is aware
both of the message to be communicated and of the importance of effective communication to influence
members of the group. 40 It is essential to be a role model for the policies you
advocate. And remember, always accept responsibility for your mistakes and don’t blame colleagues
for things that you do badly. No one is perfect. Just remember this when you interact with
colleagues.
A. A leader should act as an ambassador for the group.
B. Leadership here helps with the development of a sense of purpose and direction for the group.
C. It is often stated that leadership has three main functions within groups.
D. A manager’s ability to influence people depends on a range of factors.
E. Networking includes the ability to make and maintain useful contacts.
F. This shows that you are aware of the effort colleagues are putting into their work.
G. Amanager’s behavior is a vital component of the message they communicate to colleagues.

In the study 59 (involve) 118 students who were taking the class in psychology, the
students 60 (permit) to use any electronic device as much as they wanted during half of their
daily class periods. During the other half, researchers closely watched them to make sure no one was
using any technology.
The students’ academic 61 (perform) was measured in several ways throughout the term.
The researchers found that the average daily quiz results showed no evidence of harmful effects.
However, the results of the larger tests and final exam told 62 different story. They showed
that all the students performed poorly on questions covering material taught on days 63 they
used technology in the classroom. The students hear what the professor is saying. But they might
64 (buy) things online or reading unrelated emails at the same time. So they are not thinking

memory.

The Anti-food Waste Campaign
Our school launched an anti-food waste campaign last week to help raise students' awareness of
food waste and the consequences it brings. Lessons were designed and given to educate students to
value food and reduce food loss. A follow-up speech contest was held to further promote the idea.
All the students took an active part in the campaign and felt like making their contributions. At lunch
time, everyone now takes just the proper amount of food and makes an effort to avoid leftovers.
第二节(满分 25 分)
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Jonah would never forget how he managed to overcome his shyness and make new friends all
because of the timely advice he had followed a month ago. He remembered that day clearly.
The bell for the break resounded through the corridors at Glendale School. Instead of heading to
the canteen like the other children did, Jonah fled to the library. He pushed open the door and headed
for the nearest bookshelf. Other than the noise of the air-conditioner, the library was quiet and there
was barely a soul in sight. Far in a corner, he spotted the librarian, who seemed too busy shelving
some books to pay any attention to him. The windows to the library looked out to the canteen. Jonah
could hear children laughing and chatting. He wished he was outside playing with some friends but
he did not let this bother him.
Suddenly, Jonah heard a sound in the corner. He turned around and saw the librarian walking
towards him. “Hi, I’m Mrs Lim.” she greeted him with a smile.
“Um...hi, I’m Jonah,” Jonah said, his face flushed red with embarrassment.
“Why are you reading here when you could be playing with your friends instead?”
“Uh…” Jonah looked around the library, avoiding her gaze. He did not want Mrs Lim to know
the real reason he was in the library. She had the same look in her eyes as Jonah’s father during the
quiet car rides home from school. Jonah was helplessly tight-lipped whenever his father asked whom
he had played or eaten with at school. From his silence, Jonah’s father knew he was lonely. It was
not that Jonah did not have any friends. They all just happened to live really far away. Jonah would
stay up late at night chatting on the computer with his old friends from his previous school.
Somehow, it made him feel close to them despite the distance. Transferred to this new school, Jonah
found it difficult to make new friends. Everyone seemed to have different interests and their own
circle of friends.

【参考范文】
"I know how you feel," Mrs Lim said gently, as if she could read Jonah's mind. Jonah was
surprised as he had not expected a total stranger to sense his loneliness. Mrs Lim added, "I can see it
in your face. You look lonely. Jonah sighed, not knowing what to do next. “Just say hello to someone
today,” she encouraged, "I promise they'll respond. Once you've made the first move, it just gets
easier." Mrs Lim obviously did not understand how challenging that was going to be for him, Jonah
thought. But still he appreciated the advice and thanked her before making his way out of the library.
In the hallway outside the library, a boy from Jonah's class was picking up something on the
floor. Pens, pencils, and highlighters had dropped out of his pencil case. Fighting the urge to just
walk away, Jonah leaned down and picked up a few pens. Then, he remembered what Mrs Lim had
advised him. "Hello, I'm Jonah. Let me help you," he offered. The boy looked up at him. "Thank you.
My name is Ruben." Victory at last, Jonah thought, feeling proud of himself.
