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 选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题纸上将该
项涂黑。
A
I’ve  been  taking  time  this  week  to  stop  and  smell  the  roses.  Literally,  I  bend  over  in  my 
neighbors’ front yard, check that nobody is watching, and then bury my head in the flowers.
I’ve also been walking into bakeries (面包店), walking around without buying anything.
After having surgery (外科手术)on my broken nose 18 months ago, I haven’t been able to 
smell or taste things.
This week, however, my nose is back in business.
I’ve been overwhelmed by smells, and it’s given me a new way of thinking. A pleasant smell 
is  just  one  of  the  little  bits  and  pieces  that  make  life  enjoyable,  but  which  we  often  ignore.  I 
remember  once,  when  my  son  was  five  months  old,  I  was  carrying  him  down  the  street.  Wind 
swept through and almost tipped us over. He threw his little head back and giggled. He’d never 
felt the wind on his face. When is the last time I laughed at the weather?
The  first  time  I  ate  bacon,  I  rushed  home  to  my  parents,  determined  that  we  ate  this deliciousness at every meal. My father smiled and agreed.
We don’t write postcards about the small things. We don’t frame them in photographs. They 
aren’t that great or grand, but without them, life is altogether too loud. These quiet experiences 
give us a chance to enjoy the simple fact of being alive.
As my sense of smell returns to me, it’s like I’m smelling things for the first time. They’re 
full of memories and magic. Food tastes better, and the air is indeed sweet. I know what the poets 
mean now. It almost makes my broken nose worthwhile. Now, I am waiting for this bandage to 
come off. There’s an itch (痒)I can’t reach!
21. With the first two paragraphs, the writer mainly tries to       .
A. give examples of how she kills time
B. show that she loves doing secret things 
C. get readers to wonder about her behavior 
D. discuss new ways on how to enjoy spare time  
22. What does the underline phrase “a new way of thinking” in paragraph 5 refer to?
A. A habit of overcoming ignorance.
B. A habit of giving personal consideration.
C. An ability to fully use our limited attention.
D. An ability to discover the pleasure of small things.
23. The tone of the story is       .
A. lively B. sad C. calm D. serious
B
When you talk to doctors in the hospitals, it often happens that most of them are very serious 
and speak in a range of terms that may be difficult to understand. But Zhang Wenhong, the leader 
of the Shanghai team of experts in the treatment of novel coronavirus pneumonia, is one of the 
exceptions. He caught the public’s attention for his recent frank and funny speech.
Zhang’s words first went viral(走红)on the Internet after he said in late January that he had 
sent doctors and nurses who are members of the Communist Party of China (CPC) to frontline 
hospitals to treat coronavirus cases. “When becoming CPC members, we vowed (发誓)that we 
would  always  put  people’s  interests  first  in  the  face  of  difficulties,”  Zhang  said.  “This  is  the 
moment we live up to the vow. All CPC members must rush to the frontline. No bargaining.”
Such a hardcore declaration of his attitude won widespread applause among Internet users. “A 
person’s morals are witnessed most in a critical situation. Nothing could win more recognition from 
the people than the down-to-earth behavior of the CPC members,” said Yang Haiyan, a 32-year-old 
Shanghai resident.
One month later, when Zhang advised local residents to reduce the risk of spreading the virus 
by staying at home, he said in Shanghai dialect: “If you don’t stop seeing friends, you will see them 
again in the ICU.”
Though chased by the media, Zhang described himself as a medical worker who must speak 
out now, but will return to keeping a low profile after the outbreak ends. “I spoke because of the 
fear among the public, owing to limited knowledge of the contagion (传染病),” said Zhang on 
Feb 26. “However, once the curtain of this coronavirus incident falls, it may be hard to find me. 
I’ll  just  hide  myself  in  a  corner,  studying  complicated  patient  cases  and  doing  some  reading, 
silently.”
24. What has made Zhang Wenhong so popular online?
A. His attitude towards his patients. B. His honest and humorous speech.
C. His vow to fight against the virus. D. His broad knowledge of the virus.25. Zhang Wenhong sent CPC members to frontline hospitals because he believed that       .
A. they would not bargain B. they should do as they had vowed
C. they would be calmer in a critical situation D.  they  could  win  recognition  from  the 
people
26. What can we infer from Zhang Wenhong’s words in the last paragraph?
A. He doesn’t like to speak in public.
B. He is looking forward to taking a break.
C. He is not a person who is after fame and attention.
D. He mainly treats people with complicated diseases.
C
Press your fingers into the back of your head, just above your neck. If you feel a small bony 
bump  ( 突 起 ),  you  may  find  evidence  of  human  evolution  ( 进 化 ):  it  could  be  your  body 
responding to common smartphone use in the 21st century.
According to a recent study, published in Scientific Reports, more young people have bony 
bumps at the base of their skulls, right above the neck. Medical professionals call them enlarged 
external occipital protuberances (EEOPs,  枕外隆突).
Australian health scientist David Shahar, the author of the study, told the BBC that he’s seen 
more and more patients with EEOPs over the past ten years. Together with other researchers from 
the  University  of  the  Sunshine  Coast,  Australia,  they  examined  1,200  skull  x-rays  from  people 
aged 18–30. They also measured the bumps and noted each person’s posture. They found that one 
in  four  people  had  developed  these  growths.  This  led  to  their  theory  that  smartphones  are  the 
cause.
According to their research, looking down at our phones adds stress onto the top of our spines 
(脊柱). To prevent damage to our spines, Shahar believes our bodies add fresh bony bump to help 
reduce the extra stress.
Most of the EEOPs measured just a few millimeters. However, several subjects were found 
with EEOPs as large as 30 mm.
In his report, Shahar said the results “highlighted the need” for prevention. In other words, 
we need to change our posture while using our phones.
Many people assume our bones are solid and unmoving once we reach adulthood. In reality, 
they are alive and covered with blood vessels(血管), which allows them to develop in unique 
ways for each person.
Aside from EEOPs, other noticeable recent changes in human bodies include shrinking jaws, 
narrower elbows and generally smaller skeletons. The human body is adapting to modern life, so 
who knows what people in the future might look like?
27. What did the recent study find about EEOPs?
A. They grow on one’s neck.
B. They can lead to many health problems.
C. They may stop growing when you reach 30.
D. They occur among more and more young people.
28. What is the main cause of EEOPs according to the researchers?
A. Extra stress. B. Aging bones. C. Smartphone use. D.  Gene 
problems.
29. Which of the following would Shahar probably agree with?
A. EEOPs increase the stress on our spines.B. EEOPs are actually beneficial to our spines.
C. Young people’s bones adapt in similar ways.
D. Young people should exercise to improve their posture.
30. What’s the writing purpose of the text?
A. To persuade readers to protect their spines.
B. To explain why human bodies develop EEOPs.
C. To show some recent changes in human bodies.
D. To recommend some healthy habits of using phones.

To many of us, art is obviously a kind of human expression of creativity. But in recent years, 
you may have read news about artificial intelligence(AI) creating its own art, such as painting or 
writing poems. Some people worry that AI might someday replace artists.
    31    Many artists today are turning AI into a useful tool. Instead of replacing artists, AI is 
bringing artists more possibilities.
A piece of music created by AI recently attracted attention. AI was used to turn the novel 
virus into a piece of nearly two-hour long music based on its protein structure. The project was led 
by Markus Buehler, an American musician and MIT professor of engineering. He assigned (指定) 
a unique note to each amino acid (氨基酸)in the protein.    32   
Listeners found the project to be “mind-blowing”. “It allows me to see the virus from a new 
angle,”  said  one  listener.    33    As  The  Verge  wrote,  “AI  helps  artists  play  around  in 
unpredictable ways, creating things beyond what they have ever thought was possible before.”
    34    For example, in the comic and animation industries, there are now AI tools that can 
automatically  ( 自 动 地 )color  in  black-and-white  line  drawings.  Although  the  results  can  be 
unpredictable  and  require  a  little  cleanup,  it  “could  give  artists  room  to  experiment,  by  cutting 
down the time it takes to color each frame (画面)”, said Joao Do Lago, animator of Netflix’s 
Castlevania.
As Peter Ward wrote for The Culture Trip, art of every kind has always been influenced by 
technological breakthroughs.    35   
A. The AI then translated these notes into music.
B. AI has become an important part of our everyday life.
C. But this worry seems to be unnecessary, at least for now.
D. AI can become a useful tool to bring change to the art world.
E. Besides the music industry, AI has entered the world of poetry as well.
F. This surprising marriage between science and art could not be achieved without AI.
G. Apart from co-creating imaginative works, AI can also help artists avoid repeating tasks.

Video-sharing  websites  are  not  only  about  movies  and  TV  programs.  For  many  viewers, 
danmu, which literally means “bullet screen (弹幕)”, is    56    emotional shot to the heart.
On Dec 4, “AWSL” was named “2019 Bilibili’s Bullet Chat of the Year”. By Dec 4, it had 
appeared about 3.3 million times in 2019. According to Bilibili, AWSL is short for “A, wo si le” in  Mandarin,  which  means  “Ah,  I’m    57    (die)”  in  English.  The  term  refers  to  a  mixture  of 
emotions related to happiness and
    58    (excite),  and  the  strong  emotional  experience  of  “    59    (hit)  hard”  when  someone 
expresses a deep fondness for certain things and ideas.
    60    , the popularity of “AWSL” across Bilibili bullet chats is not accidental, according to 
Gao Hanning, a post-doctorate at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences Institute of Literature. 
“People have a highly interactive and enjoyable viewing experience,      61    allows users to make 
connections with others online who may share similar desires and interests,” he added, “and    62   
the term reflects is contemporary youth culture, a great medium for online interaction.”
Bullet screens have become an    63    (increase) important way for young people to express   
64   
(them) in China, particularly among people born between 1996 and 2010. Since 2018, the number

阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
I grew up in a small town where elementary school was a ten-minute walk from my house 
and in an age, not so long ago, when we children could go home for lunch and find our mothers 
waiting. At the time, I didn't consider this to be so important, although today it certainly would be. 
Actually, our lunch time together in the past years had had a great influence on my life before I 
realized it.
Our lunch time when I was in the third grade will stay with me always. I had been picked to 
be the princess in the school play, and for weeks my mother had painstakingly practiced my lines(
台词)with me. But no matter how easily I delivered them at home, as soon as I stepped onstage, 
every word disappeared from my head. Finally, my teacher took me aside. She explained patiently 
that she needed a narrator and had written a narrator's part to the play, and asked me to play the 
role of the narrator. Her words, kindly delivered, still hurt me especially when I saw my part go to 
another girl.
I didn't tell mother what had happened when I went home for lunch that day. But she sensed 
my upset, and instead of suggesting we practice my lines, she asked if I wanted to walk in the 
yard. It was a lovely spring day and the rose vine(藤)was turning green. Under the huge trees, we 
could see yellow dandelions(蒲公英)appearing unexpectedly through the grass in bunches, as if a 
painter  had  touched  our  landscape  with  small  amounts  of  gold.  I  watched  my  mother  casually 
bend down by one of the bushes. “I think I'm going to dig up all these weeds,” she said, pulling a 
blossom up by all its roots. “From now on, we'll only have roses in this garden.'' I immediately 
argued, "But I like dandelions. All flowers are beautiful —— even dandelions."注意:
1.所续写短文的词数应为 150 左右;
2.至少使用 5 个短文中标有下划线的关键词语:
3.续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好;
4.续写完成后,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。
Paragraph 1:
“Do you mean that every flower has its own beauty?” asked my mother thoughtfully.               
                                                                                        
                                                                                        
Paragraph 2:
Having learned what had happened, Mom patted me on the back gently and said, “but you 
will be a beautiful narrator.”
