Take a look at some breathtakingly beautiful island countries in the world, which everyone should visit at least once in his lifetime. Maldives It's believed that Maldives is one of the most popular honeymoon places as well as one of the most beautiful island countries. Situated in the middle of the Indian Ocean, Maldives is made up of a series of ancient coral reefs that grow up along the sides of ancient volcanoes, with fascinating beaches. Fiji Fiji has plenty of surprises for any adventurous travelers. It is famous for the world's best surf scenes, attracting many surfing lovers to ride the great waves. Well, if surfing is not for you and you love sitting on the beach and relaxing, hiking or seeing breathtaking waterfalls, Fiji is also a suitable island country to visit. Malta Malta, a beautiful southern European country in the Mediterranean Sea, has a rich history and culture. There are amazing sky-high cliffs to climb, wonderful temples to visit and lots of amazing places to go diving. There are plenty of interesting things to explore here and everyone can find something to enjoy. The historic part of Malta is shown in its architecture, great walled cities, and many underground tunnels. 21．Which place will be most likely to be chosen by a newly-married couple according to the text?

D．Explore underground tunnels. B The period 713-756 AD was when the Tang Dynasty reached its top. It was also China’s golden age of poetry. Then it is no surprise the period produced China’s two greatest poets, Du Fu and Li Bai. Li Bai (701-762) was also called Tai Bai or Qing Lian Ju Shi as his poetic name. He is one of the most well-known and admired poets in China. A diligent reader in his youth, he was directed by both Confucianism and Taoism(儒教和道 教). He started out at 25 to travel in the country. At the age of 42, a friend suggested him to the court(朝廷).He was greatly pleased at first and eager to serve the emperor like an ancient able politician. But the Emperor Xuanzong only had him as a palace poet to write unimportant poems while the emperor and Yang Guifei, his favorite imperial concubine(皇妃), were treating themselves. Unwilling to serve such a meaningless function, Li Bai left the capital in less than two years. Then Li Bai went on with his aimless wandering all over the country.Unfortunately, he was charged of being a member of the rebel and sentenced to exile(流放),though pardoned on the way.He died of illness at Dangtu in today’s Anhui. Li Bai is considered as the first romantic poet in the Tang Dynasty (618-907).His political aim was destroyed,so he turned to drinking to hide from his sorrows and writing,which was described as “A hundred poems per glass wine.” His poetry is still very popular and recited by Chinese children today.Here are some of his poems in English. 24．Li Bai served in the court during _______. A．713-756 B．701-762 C．743-745 D．618-907 25．Li Bai was fond of _______. A．writing poems B．traveling C．drinking D．A,B and C 26．Paragraph 3 mainly tells us _______. A．why the Tang Dynasty reached its top B．Li Bai’s days in the court C．why Li Bai is regarded as a romantic poet D．why Li Bai’s poetry is still popular today 27．The underlined word “rebel” in the forth paragraph refers to ________. A．something about travel B．something against the court C．something about poems D．something about drinking C 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. 28．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. 29．Which does the author think is a better way to save lives? A．Improving the effectiveness of the vaccines. B．Producing a greater variety of vaccines. C．Looking at the situation in a positive way. D．Wearing masks and practicing social distancing. 30．What does paragraph 6 tell us? A．The vaccines are less effective than expected. B．The US have controlled the spread of the coronavirus. C．The death toll in the next six months will be about 60,000. D．Fewer people will die if the infection rate is lower. 31．What can we infer from the text? A．The vaccine is the hope of wiping out the pandemic. B．The public are optimistic about the effects of the vaccine. C．The public are concerned about the high infection rate. D．The distribution of vaccine will end the pandemic quickly. D Imagine turning on the GPS and seeing an image of your car from above. As the car drives, the map follows along in real time, informing you of any traffic, pedestrians, animals or other things nearby. Routes and names of road appear over the live stream. It's like the map has come to life. This type of map isn't available yet. But it could be very soon. In 2014, the WorldView-3 satellite was sent into space. Even though it orbits Earth at more than 370 miles (600km) away, it can take images of objects on Earth that are just 10 inches (25cm) across. Looking all the way from outer space, it can make out a smart phone held in your hand. It can tell what types of cars are travelling down a road. But it can't identify your face or read the cars' license plate numbers. According to some reports, this satellite and other US satellites have the technology to take even sharper images, with a resolution of up to around 4 inches (10cm). But US law forbids making these super-sharp pictures public. But the idea that anybody might be able to spy on the entire Earth in such detail may seem scary. Live, high-detail satellite mapping could be used to keep tabs on anybody at any time, without the person's knowledge. Ray Purdy of University College London told CNN that he couldn't imagine what this could mean for privacy. "Most satellites are commercially owned, so if you have money, you can have that imagery. It means anyone can spy on anyone." he said. At the same time, live, detailed maps of the Earth's surface could aid humanity in amazing ways. Satellite images can help experts track storms as they form and chart their paths. At high detail, live maps of a disaster area could quickly reveal people in need of rescue as well as the safest routes in or out. Satellites images are already helping the police catch illegal fishing operations. Higher detail may make it possible to catch other criminals in the act. The images could also make it easier for farmers to watch over their crops or for scientists to find minerals. Also, these images play a very important role in monitoring the health of forests and other landscapes. What do you think? Would you like to see everyone accessing high-detail live maps of the Earth's surface? Please share your idea with us on the website. 32．How does the author introduce the topic of the passage? A．By telling a story. B．By supposing a situation. C．By making a comparison. D．By using a research finding. 33．What can the WorldView-3 satellite do? A．Tell how a person looks. B．Identify what a pedestrian is holding. C．Help farmers sow seeds for their crops. D．Read a running car's license plate number. 34．What kind of feeling was expressed in Ray Purdy's words? A．Regret. B．Excitement. C．Concern. D．Sympathy. 35．What's the best title of the passage? A．Anyone can spy on anyone B．Criminals have nowhere to hide C．More satellites into space: good or bad? D．A live map of everywhere on Earth:scary or cool? 第二节 （共 5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 12.5 分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余 选项. Cold weather during winter months may keep many people from leaving home and running in the open air. However, a new study shows that the drop in temperature is a good reason to run. 36． Many people say running in winter can be difficult. Two reasons are the low temperatures and bitter winds.37．That could be because lower temperatures reduce stress on the body. When you run in cold weather, your heart rate and the body's dehydration (脱水) levels are lower than in warmer conditions. 38． This information comes from John Brewer, who is a professor of applied sport science at St. Mary’s. For this study, he and other researchers put a group of people into a room they called an "environmental chamber". The researchers then recreated summer and winter weather conditions in the room.39．Brewer says he and his team recorded biological measurements of the runners. He says that the most important thing for people who run in cold conditions is to wear the right clothing. Wear gloves on your hands.40．And especially wear more than one layer of clothing to keep sweat away from your skin. A．Yet many runners might find it easier than running in hot weather. B．We have good reasons to run in winter. C．Wear shoes that will keep you from falling. D．Many feel nervous when running in the cold weather. E.The body needs less water on a cold day than in warm weather. F.In fact, running in cold weather helps improve one’s performance. G.The test subjects were asked to run 10,000 meters under both conditions. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分 30 分） 第一节 （共 15 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 15 分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白 处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。 There was a clever man in a village.

At this moment, the landlord came in and asked, “Are you sure you do not rent the house any more?” He kept silent and she only shook her head. They were going to divorce, so it was obvious that they would not continue renting the house any more. Then the landlord began examining the house. After looking around,he screamed, “Goddamn! See how you have ruined my house? The walls are full of nails! How could I rent the house to others?" Jack said,"The room is too small and can hardly accommodate all loads of our stuff. So we could only hang them on the walls."The landlord did not listen to him and turned around up to the floor. Rose began looking around her familiar room. Four years ago, she became his bride here. On the night of their marriage, he felt deeply guilty to her, saying,“I feel so sorry for you for having you live in this small room. In the future I will earn a lot of money to buy our own house.” The room was only 13 square meters with two nails on the wall next to the door, one for her to hang her bag and the other for hanging umbrellas. At that time,she threw all her stuff such as her bag and umbrella on the floor once she entered the room, staring at the whole mess and feeling terribly upset. There were three nails on the left wall, on which he hung his clothes yesterday. After she lived in the room, he removed all the clothes boxes and bought her a desk in the spared room because he knew she loved writing and drawing. There were four nails on the right wall that were used to fix their wedding photo frame. But now there were only four nails without the frame. She still remembered he got hurt on his fingers when trying to drive the nails home. It was her who pushed him to receive an injection against tetanus(破伤风)。 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。 The landlord tried to pry(撬动，撬开) the nails out when complaining at the same time. _______________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________ They hung all the things back to the wall. _______________________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________________________
