When it comes to the most famous 20th century painters of the United States, Grandma Moses should be
mentioned, although she did not start painting until she was in her late seventies. As she once said to herself：“I
would never sit back in a rocking chair, waiting for someone to help me.” No one could have had a more active
old age.
She was born on a farm in New York State, one of five boys and five girls. At 12 she left home and was in
domestic service until at 27 she married Thomas Moses, the hired hand of one of her employers. They farmed
most of their lives, first in Virginia and then in New York State, at Eagle Bridge. She had ten children, of whom
five survived; her husband died in 1927.
Grandma Moses painted a little as a child and made embroidery(刺绣) pictures as a hobby, but only
changed to oils in old age because her hands became too stiff(僵硬的) to sew and she still wanted to keep busy
and pass the time. Her pictures were first sold at the local drugstore and at a market and were soon noticed by a
businessman who bought all that she painted. Three of the pictures were exhibited(展览) in the Museum of
Modern Art, and in 1940 she had her first exhibition in New York. Between the 1930s and her death, she
produced some 2,000 pictures: careful and lively portrayals of the country life she had known for so long, with
a wonderful sense of color and form. “I think really hard till I think of something really pretty, and then I paint
it，” she said.
24．What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A．An introduction to Moses's life. B．Moses and her childhood.
C．Moses and her children. D．An introduction to Moses's marriage.
25．What did Grandma Moses spend most of her life doing?
A．Embroidering. B．Farming C．Nursing. D．Painting.
26．The underlined word “portrayals” in the last paragraph means ________.
A．directions B．stages C．surveys D．Descriptions
27．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A．Grandma Moses and Her Exhibition
B．Grandma Moses: A Woman Pioneer of 20th Century
C．Grandma Moses and Her Pictures
D．Grandma Moses: The Best Painter of 20th Century
C
Map reading, growing fruit and vegetable and basic car service are also more common skills among the
baby boomer generation. But according to a new survey, just one in three 18- to 25-year-olds are able to do basic
DIY, compared to two-thirds of those aged 58 and over.
Sarah Clarke-Kuehn, Chief Operating Officer-Commercial, said, “The survey findings are so interesting as
they highlight a very common incorrect conception related to ‘getting old’.”
When asked at what age they thought developing new skills becomes “difficult”, Gen Z respondents said
they were 35 years old, while those aged over 58 believed this number was 63 years old. The belief is that there
is a boundary between learning new skills and getting a sense of achievement. But we know that this is just notthe case. The benefits in continuing to enjoy life, as well as developing new talents are very significant—both
physically and mentally as we grow older.
Neuroscientist and author, Dr Julia Jones, said, “We underestimate our brain’s ability to continue learning.
Our brain is the most complex and precise structure in the known universe but we only use a small part of its true
potential throughout our lifetimes. To boost continued brain health, we should learn complex and novel skills at
all ages. This becomes more important as we age, because these learning experiences help to build new
connections between neurons (神经细胞) that maintain intelligence and reduce the risk of future brain decline.”
“Learning languages and musical instruments are believed to be effective at boosting neuroplasticity (神经
可塑性) due to their complex nature, but all learning is beneficial and can bring a sense of achievement, purpose
and social engagement.”
Dr Jones added. “Find a new hobby and throw yourself into a wonderful learning experience or pick up an
old pastime and improve those skills. I’m currently learning to play the guitar and it’s opened up a whole new
world of music and fun.”
28．What is mentioned about the young generation in the text?
A．They lose interest in DIY. B．They have no idea in plants.
C．Many of them own poor reading skills D．Many of them lack some basic skills.
29．What does the author imply in paragraph 3?
A．It is never too late to learn in one’s life. B．Learning brings a sense of belonging.
C．It is necessary to show off one’s talents. D．The benefits of lifelong learning are temporary.
30．What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A．The significance of knowing the structure of the brain.
B．The reasons for taking full advantage of the brain.
C．The difficulties in improving the ability of the brain.
D．The process of protecting the brain from risk.
31．What is Dr Jones’ attitude to learning musical instruments?
A．Doubtful B．Negative. C．Favorable. D．Unclear.
D
A new study finds that less than seven percent of the adult population in the US have what health experts
consider good cardiometabolic (心脏代谢) health.
Using information on roughly 55,000 people over the age of 20, the results show of them merely 374
American adults reached optimal (最佳的) levels of health in 2018. Moreover, the study found American health
has been in sharp decline over the last 20 years. In 1999, one in three adults had a healthy weight. By 2018, that
number fell to just one in four Americans. At the same time, three in five people were free of diabetes in 1999.
By 2018, however, more than six in ten adults had the condition!
“These numbers are striking. It’s deeply problematic that in the United States, fewer than 1 in 15 adults have
optimal cardiometabolic health,” says Meghan O’Hearn, one of the researchers from Tufts University. “We need
a complete overhaul (革新) of our healthcare system, food system, and living conditions, because this is a crisis
for everyone.”
Instead of just looking for signs of disease, the team focused their study on the signs of good, moderate, and
poor cardiometabolic health. “Disease is not the only problem,” O’Hearn explains. “We don’t just want to be free
of disease. We want to achieve optimal health and well-being.”
Researchers also found large health gaps between US adults of different genders, ages, and education levels.
Specifically, the study found Americans with less education were half as likely to be in peak cardiometabolic
health.
O’Hearn adds, “Identifying these individuals and addressing their health conditions and lifestyle early is
critical to reducing growing healthcare burdens. Its impacts on national healthcare spending and the financialhealth of the entire economy are enormous. And these conditions are largely preventable. We have the public
health and clinical interventions and policies to be able to address these problems.”
32．What percentage of American adults had optimal cardiometabolic health in 2018?
A．Over 7 percent. B．About 60 percent.
C．Around 33 percent. D．Just 6.8 percent.
33．What does O’Hearn think of the results of the study?
A．They’re unreal. B．They’re shocking.
C．They’re expected. D．They’re acceptable.
34．What is the purpose of the team’s research?
A．To help people keep fit. B．To find the big age gap.
C．To develop new drugs. D．To earn lots of profits.
35．What can we infer from O’Hearn’s words in the last paragraph?
A． Economic growth affects personal health condition.
B． Joint effort is needed to improve public health.
C．America saw a slow decrease in healthcare costs.
D．Rich people tend to suffer from health problems.

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。
Helping Your Teen Understand the Value of Money
It seems that there are more things for teens to spend money on than ever. 36 If you aren’t made
of money, it’s hard to give your kids everything they want. That’s why it’s important to help them understand the
value of money.
Start teaching your children about money early. Starting around age 10, give them a few dollars every week
for them to spend however they want. Make the pocket money dependent on doing housework. 37
Don’t set limits on what they can spend it on, and don’t continually buy them things they want. They’ll soon
learn that if they spend all their money as soon as they get it, they won’t be able to afford more expensive things
they want.
You should also start early introducing your children to budgets and how much things cost. 38
Soon they’ll realize how much some things really cost.
As your child gets older, about 13 or 14, increase their pocket money as you increase their responsibility.
Once they’re more responsible, give them a budget for something bigger like clothes and make them stick to it.
Eventually, your child will probably get a job. Take this opportunity to teach them about savings. 39
Let them use the rest as mad money to spend however they want. If you’re worried about what they’re buying,
open them a checking account you can monitor.
Teaching your child the value of money will not happen overnight. 40 Remember that they will
probably mess up along the way, but mistakes are how they learn.
A．But let them choose what they want to do.
B．It takes many small steps.
C．You should refuse them wisely if they ask you for money frequently.
D．Have them go to the store with you or watch you pay the bills.
E．Have them put some into a savings account to use for college or other pursuits.
F．Knowing how to save money can help children find a good job in the future.
G．There are expensive clothes, video games, phones and more.

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Among all kinds of Chinese food, soup dumplings impressed me the most. The first I ever heard of soup
dumplings was 15 years ago in a New York Times story, 56 described xiao long bao as “the star of the
show” at Joe’s Shanghai in New York’s Chinatown.
When I arrived at Joe’s Shanghai I entered a small storefront. At Joes, there are two 57 (kind) of
soup dumplings: crab with pork meat (蟹肉加猪肉) and pork meat I asked for one order of each expecting to be
served with some special soup.
For me, soup is 58 best food. A well-made soup carries with it the continuation of the past and
glimpses(一瞥) of the future
But instead 59 soup, the waiter placed two stacked bamboo steamers (摞在一起的竹蒸笼) on the
table. He helped lift a dumpling with chopsticks from the steamer and place it in my spoon. I 60(lift) the spoon to my mouth and took an eager bite.
It hurt. The hot soup burned my mouth. After 6 1 (notice) this, the waiter came up and 62
(patient) taught me how to eat the soup dumplings properly. Under 63 (he) guidance, I treated my
second dumpling right.
It isn’t hard 64 (master) the art of eating soup dumplings, once you understand that these
dumplings are a miracle (奇迹) in the kitchen, that they are filled with delicious soup, and that they indeed are
65 (difference) from every other dumpling you’ve had.

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。
The concept of comfort zone (舒适区) refers to a psychological state in which we feel safe and do not
experience anxiety or fear. It is a “space” that we know completely and in which we control almost everything.
Your comfort zone represents things you’re familiar with, your regular haunts, friends you’re at ease with,
and activities you love doing. Your comfort zone’s risk free. It’s easy. It doesn’t cause you to stretch. Within these
boundaries we feel safe and secure.
During my senior year in college I was short a few credits, and so I skimmed through the class schedule
looking for something to fill the hours. When I came across “Private Voice Instruction” as in singing lessons, I
thought, “Why not step outside my comfort zone and give it a try?”
I was careful to sign up for private lessons instead of group lessons because I didn’t want to make a fool of
myself by singing in front of other students.
Things went fine until the end of the semester when my singing professor brought the shocking news. “Bythe way, Sean, have you decided which song you want to sing at the recital?” “What do you mean?” I asked in
horror.
“Well, the class requirements state that you have to sing at least one time in front of the other private voice
students.”
“That would not be a good idea,” I said emphatically.
“Oh, it’s no big deal. You’ll do fine.”
Well, to me it was a huge deal. The thought of singing in front of a group made me physically sick. “How
am I going to get out of this one?” I thought. But I couldn’t allow myself to do that because I had been speaking
to various groups over the past year advising them to never let fears make their decisions.
“Courage, Sean.” I kept saying in my mind. “You’ve got to at least try.”

In order to encourage us to learn more about Space Science, an activity about it will be held in the
English Corner at 3 o’clock this Tuesday afternoon and will last three hours.
The activity is divided into 2 parts. First and foremost, it is a brief introduction of Tiangong Class.
Then, you are encouraged to share some knowledge of manned space flights and carry out some related
experiments together. I’m confident that you’ll have a wonderful time and have a better understanding of
space.
Everyone who is interested in the activity is welcome.
The English Club
续写One possible version:
That frightening day finally arrived. As I entered the classroom, I kept trying to convince
myself, “Just cheer up, OK? This can’t be that bad. ” Now it was my turn. As I stood in front of the
class, which was far away from my comfort zone, I kept repeating to myself, “Courage! Relax!
Take it easy! Just perform your best! ” It turned out that I did such a great job that all the students
applauded my performance warmly.
I left the classroom as if a heavy load had been lifted. Although that experience nearly killed
me, I felt a great sense of personal accomplishment on my way home. I was so proud of myself
and I frankly didn’t care what anyone else thought about my performance. What really mattered
was that I had survived. Stepping out of your comfort zone will never be easy, but afterward you’ll
always be glad you did it.

Text 10 (第18题为总结题)
M: Hi, I’m Paul and I’m the president of our high school’s Latin Club. Latin once was the language spoken by
the Romans. Nowadays, it is no longer spoken as a native language anywhere in the world. So, you may wonder
why anyone would bother to learn a “dead” language. Firstly, knowing Latin can help improve your English
vocabulary and communication skills. The Romans ruled here in the U.K. for around 500 years, (19) so Latin had
a big impact on the development of English. In fact, experts believe that around 60% of English words have a
Latin influence. When it comes to scientific vocabulary, this figure rises to over 90%! As someone who plans to
study computer science, I know my Latin knowledge will be really useful to me in the future. (20) Knowing
Latin is also a great help if you want to learn other modern European languages, particularly the Romantic
languages such as French, Spanish and Italian. Latin gives you a new attitude towards language learning, as it
helps you to understand the history of words and how they change over time.
