The universe likes to be shy about its age,but astronomers believe they have a pretty good idea of the range.Currently,the most widely accepted age for the universe is around 13.8 billion years,but determining the age of...well,everything,is no easy feat(功绩).Now.new studies have investigated the question using different methods-and they've come up with two different answers,separated by more than a billion years.
Because the universe is expanding at an accelerating pace,the further away an object is,the faster it appears to be moving away from us.This is expressed as the Hubble constant(哈勃常数),and it's a key factor in figuring out the age of the universe.After all.if we can determine how fast objects moving away from us,we can rewind that process to its beginning-the Big Bang.Researchers from the University of Oregon set out to map the distance to dozens of galaxies The team calculated that the universe is only 12.6 billion years old-that,you might notice is much
younger than the 13.8 years usually stated.
In the second study,the method of figuring out the age of the universe is by mapping the oldest light we can detect.We are restoring the' baby photo' of the universe to its original condition, removing the wear and tear of time and space that distorted(扭曲)the image, says Neelima Sehgal, co-author on the study.Only by seeing this sharper baby photo or image of the universe can we more fully understand how our universe was born.\"In doing so, the researcher determined that the universe is 13.8 billion years old-in agreement with the accepted age.
The real problem though,is that the studies disagree so wildly with each other, to the tune of a billion years.But they are not the only ones-the battle lines are commonly drawn by the methods used. Obviously.more research is heeded to determine where the truth lies. 4. What do we know about the universe from the first two paragraphs? A. It doesn't exist long. the Big Bang.
5. What makes the researchers in the first study think the universe is much younger? A. The speed of moving objects. B. The number of galaxies.
C. The process of the universe evolution. D. The distance to other objects.
6. How does Neelima Sehgal explain their method in the second study? A. By referring to a similar thing. B. By using hard scientific data. C. By introducing a new concept. D. By quoting an expert's words.
7. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Whose method is better? B. Which result can you believe? C. How old is the universe? D. Why is the universe so old?
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. A 7. C 【解析】
B. It becomes larger. C. It runs away. It causes D.
这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述宇宙的寿命。 【4题详解】
细节理解题。由题干要求定位开头两段,由第二段第一句“Because the universe is expanding at an accelerating pace,the further away an object is,the faster it appears to be moving away from us.(因为宇宙以加速的速度扩大,一个物体越远,它看起来就移动得离我们越远)”可知,宇宙变得更大。故选B项。 【5题详解】
推理判断题。第一个研究,回归到第二段,根据第二段中“Researchers from the University of Oregon set out to map the distance to dozens of galaxies. The team calculated that the universe is only 12.6 billion years old(来自俄勒冈大学的研究者开始着手绘制到几十个星系的距离图。这个团队计算出宇宙只有126亿岁)”可知,是到其他天体的距离使第一个研究中的研究者认为宇宙更年轻。故选D项。 【6题详解】
推理判断题。由题干要求:”NS如何解释研究二的方法?” 结合原文第三段第二句话“We are restoring the' baby photo' of the universe to its original condition, removing the wear and tear of time and space that distorted(扭曲)the image, says Neelima Sehgal, co-author on the study.(这个研究的联合作者Neelima Sehgal说,我们正在修复宇宙的‘婴儿照片’至原本的状态,移除使形象扭曲的时间及空间的衣服和眼泪)”可知,Neelima Sehgal用一个给婴儿擦眼泪和脱衣服的比喻,比喻最早产生的光在宇宙中变化的逆过程,所以Neelima Sehgal引用了一个相似的事物进行了比喻。故选A项。 【7题详解】
主旨大意题。本篇为科学研究文,文章结构是总-分-总,主旨一般在首段。结合第一段第一句“The universe likes to be shy about its age,but astronomers believe they have a pretty good idea of the range.(宇宙羞于谈及年龄,但是天文学家们相信,他们很清楚这个范围)”及currently,….,separated by more than a billion year.可知,文章主要讲述人们采取不同方法测得的宇宙寿命不同。所以C项“宇宙多大年纪?”适合作为文章标题,故选C项。
C
Did you know that the average child has heard the word \"no\" over 20,000 times before they turn the age of three? Ironically, it is also around this time that children begin to develop enough personal character to refuse to obey. The \"terrible twos\" are categorized by a lack of understanding.
Somewhere between three and four, children begin to acquire the skills to reason. It is during this time they watch how other children and adults reason. If we're not careful, the children will watch us model a world of \"NOs\"。
By the time a person turns eighteen, how many times have they been told no? I haven't found any studies that even attempted to track this statistic, but I'm sure if the number is 20,000 by three, then at eighteen that number has multiplied. You can do the math.
Anyway, I think I know why we say no. We say no to protect. We say no to direct. We say no to stop potential confusion. However, do we sometimes say no just for the sake of saying no? Do we say no because we have internalized(内在化)all of the \"NOs\" we've heard over the years and we feel it is finally our time to say no to someone else?
The internalized no can damage the growth process of dreams in infancy as quickly as it can weaken a three-year-old. And we wonder why we run into people with big, un-accomplished dreams who have a bit of a chip on their shoulder. They have to take on the 20,000 NOs. However, the thing that keeps them going is the possibility of the power of ONE YES! Just as it only takes one book to make a writer a Pulitzer Prize Winner, it only takes one word to change the course of your day. That word is YES!
8. What do we know about two- year- olds? A. They understand well. C. They think logically.
9. What effect does saying no have on children? A. They lose all their dreams. C. They don't make mistakes.
B. They aren't easy to succeed. D. They never say yes to others. B. They often say no to others. D. They don't do all they're told.
10. Which word best describes the author's attitude to a world of \"NOs\"? A. Tolerant. Carefree.
11. What is the text? A. A how-to guide. story.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. B 11. C 【解析】
B. Disapproving. C. Favorable. D.
B. A survey report. C. An opinion essay. D. A short
这是一篇议论文。文章表达了作者对说“不”看法。作者认为虽然有时说“不”是出于保护自己,但常常对孩子说“不”会对他们产生消极的影响。为了让孩子有改观,作者建议家长对他们说一句“是”。 【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的it is also around this time that children begin to develop enough personal character to refuse to obey.可知,孩子们在三岁前就开始发展足够的性格来拒绝遵守
D. They don't do all they're told.(他们不会完全按照被告知的去做)符合以上说法,大人所说的。故选D项。 【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段的The internalized no can damage the growth process of dreams in infancy as quickly as it can weaken a three-year-old. And we wonder why we run into people with big, un-accomplished dreams who have a bit of a chip on their shoulder.(内化的“不”会破坏婴
儿时期梦想过程的成长,就像它会削弱三岁小孩那样快。我们也想知道我们为什么会遇到那些有着远大而未实现的梦想的催毛求疵的人。)可知,不断对孩子说“不”,会让孩子的梦
想破坏,导致他们最终有很多没有完成的梦想。B. They aren't easy to succeed.(他们不会轻易成功。)符合以上说法,故选B项。 【10题详解】
的推理判断题。根据文章的主要内容,尤其最后一段的However, the thing that keeps them going is the possibility of the power of ONE YES! Just as it only takes one book to make a writer a Pulitzer Prize Winner, it only takes one word to change the course of your day. That word is YES!(然而,正真让他们继续走下去的是“是”的力量。就正如只需要一本书就会让作者成为普利策奖得主一样,你只需要一个词来改变你生活轨迹,那就是“是”。)可知,作者从小时候对孩子说“不”的影响,到长大和这一路成长经历对梦想的挫伤,到最后的说一句“是”也可以对孩子们带来巨大的改观。由此推测,作者对一个充斥着“不”的世界的态度是否定的。B. Disapproving. (不赞成的)符合以上推测,故选B项。 11题详解】
推理判断题。全文以作者观点为导向表达了作者对说“不”看法,由此可见是一篇表明个人意见的论文。C. An opinion essay.(一篇观点文章)符合以上推测,故选C项。
D
I’m Jeff Logan, president of Logan Luxury Theaters Corporation. I’m very sorry to tell you
many cinemas are at risk of closing permanently (永久). That’s something we would hate to see happen.
Watching the newest box office movie and eating a big bucket of popcorn is an experience that many of us have enjoyed for a very long time. We all have fond memories of going to a theater of our first dates or the first movie we saw with our children. A movie theater is so important to the fabric of the local community. It’s a place where we all gather, no matter what our interests, and no matter what ages, young and old, rich and poor.
But how much longer will classic theaters remain open? Just like other industries, movie theaters have been hit hard by the pandemic (流行病) and are going dark. The entire industry is being controlled by the pandemic, because the studios don't want to release their new movies until all the theaters can be open. As we all know, the theaters can’t do well and can’t get back to full 7-day a week at full speed operation without new movies to play.
Recently, the Logan Luxury 5 Cinema in Mitchell reopened for the weekends. However, like many theaters, it is only operating at about 10 percent capacity. Since opening, several new safety measures have been put in place. Block off every other row. People are asked to leave three seats between them and the next group. Staff spray the theater with disinfectant (消毒剂) after every show. And sanitizer stations can be found throughout the theater.
Even so, some people still aren’t comfortable going to a movie theater yet. I fully understand that. Anyhow, I just hope we must do something else to help out our local theaters, like taking part in a new national proposal called “Save Your Cinema.”
12. What does the underlined word “fabric” in paragraph 4 refer to? A. Typical feature. Common vision.
13. Why are the film studios unwilling to release the new movies? A. Cinemas don’t operate normally. B. New movies aren’t welcomed. C. People don’t like going to cinema. D. Many cinemas go out of business.
14. What can we infer about the Logan Luxury 5 Cinema after its reopening? A. It makes a lot of money.
B. Basic structure. C. Public support. D.
B. It does well in disease prevention. C. It receives a large audience every day. D. It offers more enjoyable experience. 15. What is the purpose of this text? A. To share the good old days. B. To explain a social problem. C. To recommend a theater. D. To ask for people’s help.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. B 15. D 【解析】
这是一篇说明文。作者通过这篇文章讲述了电影院对当地社区的重要性,以及目前在疫情下电影院所面临的困难,并呼吁大家帮助电影院。 【12题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段的A movie theater is so important to the fabric of the local community. It’s a place where we all gather, no matter what our interests, and no matter what ages, young and old, rich and poor.可知,一家电影院对当地社区的fabric来说非常重要。它是一个大家聚会的地方,不论兴趣、年龄、老少、贫富差距。根据句意可知,划线词是指一种建筑,该建筑为当地人提供可以随意聚会的地方。由此猜测,划线部分的意思是“基础建设”。B. Basic structure.(基本结构)符合以上猜测。故选B项。 【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的The entire industry is being controlled by the pandemic, because the studios don’t want to release their new movies until all the theaters can be open.可知,整个电影行业都受到疫情影响,因为电影工作室不希望在影院复工前上映影片。即,电影工作室不上映电影,是因为电影院没有正常营业。A. Cinemas don’t operate normally.(电影院没有正常营业)符合以上说法。故选A项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段的However, like many theaters, it is only operating at about 10 percent capacity. Since opening, several new safety measures have been put in place. Block off every other row. People are asked to leave three seats between them and the next group. Staff spray the theater
with disinfectant (消毒剂) after every show. And sanitizer stations can be found throughout the theater.(然而,就像很多影院,它只开放10%的容量。自营业以来,几项新的安全措施已经就位。每行隔开。人们被要求在他们和下一组之间留下三个座位。员工在观影结束后喷洒消毒剂。整个电影院都有消毒站)可知,影院减少了载客容量,隔开了观影者的位置,并常常消毒清理。由此推测,他们在防疫这方面做的很好。B. It does well in disease prevention.(它在防疫这方面做得很好)符合以上推测。故选B项。 【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的Anyhow, I just hope we must do something else to help out our local theaters, like taking part in a new national proposal called “Save Your Cinema.”(不管怎么样,我只希望我们可以做点什么来帮助我们当地的电影院,例如加入一个新的全国性倡议“拯救你的电影院”)可推测,作者写这篇文章的目的是呼吁大家加入“拯救你的电影院”这个行动来为电影行业带来帮助。D. To ask for people’s help.(请求人们的帮助)符合以上推测。故选D项。

这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了德国Volocopter研制的空中出租车。 【36题详解】
考查形容词。句意:在今年底,德国空中出租车公司Volocopter将在新加坡建立它的第一个飞行出租车站,为将来人类通勤方式的重大变化铺平道路。空后taxi station是名词词组,所以此处应填一个形容词,flying意为“飞行的”,故填flying。 37题详解】
考查宾语从句。结合句意可知,此处指“人类如何上下班”,表示方式,所以使用how引导宾语从句,故填how。 【38题详解】
【【39题详解】
词作后置定语,故填designed。 【40题详解】
符号to省略,故填(to) save。 【41题详解】 【42题详解】 【43题详解】
考查副词。句意:这些空中出租车,或者UAM车辆,是基于被设计用来载两个人的无人机 技术,由电提供动力的出租车。空出修饰动词powered,应使用副词形式,故填electrically。
考查非谓语动词。动词design和逻辑主语drone technology之间是动宾关系,应使用过去分
考查非谓语动词。句意:这项技术的目的是节省时间,通过为市民增加一种机动选择,帮助城市把交通系统变成一个可持续的未来。此处是作表语,应使用动词不定式,也可将不定式
考查时态。句意:如今很多公司,包括Uber,都在这个领域激烈竞争。根据now可知句子使用现在进行时,主语Many companies是复数,故填are competing。
考查定语从句。句意:中国汽车制造者吉利进行了5000万欧元的一轮投资,这将帮助这家公司为它接下来三年的商业化提供资金。分析句子可知,空处引导一个定语从句,先行词是50 million euros,关系词在从句中作主语,可使用that或which引导,故填that/which。
考查介词。句意:吉利控股董事长李书副说:“我们最近和Volocopter的工作建立了我们对Volocopter空中出租车作为有野心的下一步的信心。”此处表示“和”,使用介词with。故填
with。 【44题详解】
考查形容词。空后step是名词,此处应填一个形容词作定语,ambitious意为“有野心的,雄心勃勃的”,故填ambitious。 【45题详解】

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Just after New Year's,before school vacation ended.I went out for a walk.It was a walk I’d been meaning to take ever since we moved to the house.
I took my camera-the first time I'd taken my camera out since we came to the country-and went, dressed in my down jacket and wearing heavy boots.I walked toward the seemingly abandoned house that I could see across the fields from the upstairs window.
A truck was parked at the end of the road,beside a tiny.weather-beaten house.There was smoke coming out of the chimney,and curtains in the two little windows on either side of the door.A dog was in the yard,who barked when he saw me coming.And beside the truck-no,actually in the truck,or at least with his head inside it,was a man.
“Hi,\"I called.It would have been silly to turn around and start walking home without saying
anything,even though I've promised my parents all my life that I would never talk to strange men.
He lifted out his head,a gray head,smiled-a nice smile-and said,\"Miss Chalmers.I'm glad you've come to visit.\"
“Meg,\"I said.I was puzzled.How did he know who I was?
"For Margaret?\"he asked,coming over and shaking my hand.\"Forgive me.My hands are very dirty.My battery dies in this cold weather.\"
"How did you know my name was Chalmers?\"
He wiped his hands on a towel that was hanging from the door handle of the truck.\"My dear,I apologize.I have not even introduced myself.My name is Will Banks.And it's much too cold to stand out here.Your feet must be frozen,even in those boots.Come inside,and I'll make us each a cup of tea. And I'll tell you how I know your name.”
I stood unmoved.He saw me hesitate,and smiled.\"Meg,\"he said,“I'm seventy years old. Completely harmless,even to a beautiful young girl like you.Come on in and keep me company for a bit,and get warm.\"
I laughed,because he knew what I was thinking,and very few people ever know what I'm thinking. Then I went in his house. 注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
He took my jacket and hung it up with his,and poured tea into two thick pottery mugs. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
It's nice to have a new friend,like Will..
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
He took my jacket and hung it up with his.and poured tea into two thick pottery mugs.After we
sat at the table,Will told me the whole story.The house my family was living in was actually built by his grandfather.He was born,raised and married in that house.Alter his Margaret died,he moved to this small house.When he heard my parents were looking for a place,he offered the house to them.He thought it was a perfect place for a writer like my father-the peace there stimulated imagination.He said again that he was glad I'd come to visit.
It's nice to have a new friend,like Will. I suggested taking pictures of him.\"My dear,\"he said, straightening his shoulders and buttoning the top button of his shirt.\"I would be honored.\"The soft light was coming in through the kitchen window onto his face.He sat right there,smiling and talking.I just shot quickly.Years later,those pictures still brought back the warm memories of that day. 【解析】 【分析】
本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读所给文章可知,作者搬家后第一次出去散步,在一个小Will Banks在打招呼时喊出了作者的名字,木屋遇见了70多岁的Will Banks,但是作者却不认识他,Will Banks邀请作者进屋喝杯茶,顺便讲述他为什么知道作者的名字。
【详解】续写部分分为两段,第一段开头是:他拿着我的夹克衫和他的挂在一起,向两个厚陶杯里倒茶……,所以应该写进屋后的情况,即Will Banks向作者讲述是如何得知作者的名字的;第二段开头是:有一个像Will这样的朋友还不错……,本段应该作者听了Will讲述的故事后,把Will当成在这个陌生国家的朋友,提议给他拍些照片,多年后,这些照片仍能让作者想起那些温暖的回忆。续写时要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右。按要求完成写作任务。
【点睛】本文描写详略得当,使用了高级词汇和高级句子。如:look for,suggest doing sth.,bring back等高级词汇;After we sat at the table, Will told me the whole story.中After引导的时间状语从句,He said again that he was glad I'd come to visit.中that引导的宾语从句等高级句式。
