21、get involved in this important conservation effort.可知，号召大家”不要错过参与这项重要的保护工作的机会。”可知是帮助保护野生动物，BCD 项文章中没有提到。 故选 A。【3题详解】细节理解题。题干中的关键词是 enjoy rock art，只有文章中的第二栏中的最后一句话Guests on this 11-day voyage will go ashore, explore natural wonders, meet traditional owners, see rock art and spot wildlife.可知。在这11天的旅程中

Before you start looking for your own ancestors, read this advice from genealogist Maria McLeod.The first que

23、stion to ask yourself is why you want to research your family tree. Genealogy is not about discovering that you are the lost prince or princess of an unknown kingdom. Its about finding more about yourself. For most people the important question is “Why am I like I am?” You might not look like other

24、members of your immediate family and you want to know where your green eyes or curly hair come from. You may be curious about why you have such a quick temper. You may even be suffering from a medical condition and want to know if something in your genetic makeup has caused it.Another common motivat

25、ion for researching your family tree is that you plan to visit the place that your ancestors came from and you secretly hope that you will find some long lost cousins with whom you can share your memories. There can be few more exciting things than meeting a distant cousin who is living on the other

26、 side of the globe and finding that she looks just like your younger sister. But you should also bear in mind that they may not necessarily want to have anything to do with you. Sometimes there are skeletons in the cupboard that you and your branch of the family are unaware of, but which are still f

27、resh in the minds of your more distant relatives.Once you are clear about your motivations, you need to take a moment to think about just how many ancestors you might have and how far back you intend to go. You have, no doubt, thought about your parents parents and your parents parents parents. But

28、go back ten generations and the picture becomes much more complicated. You can work it out for yourself. You may be descended(遗传) from no fewer than 1,024 people through ten generations. This can mean that you spend hours going through official records, either in person at the records office or on t

29、he Internet. Are you prepared for such a huge task?4. What might be Maria Mcleods first piece of advice be?A. Be prepared to accept your bad temper.B. Dont expect to find lovely relatives.C. Be prepared to find out your hidden health problems.D. Dont expect to find out you are a member of a royal fa

30、mily.5. Why are some relatives unwilling to meet you?A. You may bring back bad memories.B. They find it disturbing to entertain you.C. They suspect you of having wrong motives.D. You could remind them of their lost loved ones.6. What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to?A. Wh

31、o your great grandparents are.B. When you can finish your huge task.C. Why researching a family tree is complex.D. How many people you are descended from.7. What is the best title for the text?A. Uncovering family secrets: do you dare?B. The science of genealogy: new developmentsC. Expert opinions o

32、n researching your family pastD. A step-by-step guide to researching your family tree【答案】4. D 5. A 6. D 7. C【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了系谱学家玛丽亚麦克劳德对于研究家谱的一些建议。【4题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段“Genealogy is not about discovering that you are the lost prince or princess of an unknown kingdom. Its about finding more about yo

33、urself. ”可知，家谱并不是要发现你是一个未知王国失落的王子或公主。而是为了找到更多关于你自己的东西。所以玛丽亚麦克劳德的第一条建议是D选项“别指望发现你是皇室成员。故选D项。【5题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“But you should also bear in mind that they may not necessarily want to have anything to do with you. Sometimes there are skeletons in the cupboard that you and your branch of the family are

34、 unaware of, but which are still fresh in the minds of your more distant relatives.”可知，但你也应该记住，他们不一定想和你有任何关系。有时候，你和你的家族中有一些不为人知的不可告人的秘密，但这些秘密在你的远房亲戚们的头脑中仍然是新鲜的。所以为什么有些亲戚不愿意见你是因为你可能会带来不好的回忆。故选A项。【6题详解】词句猜测题。根据最后一段“But go back ten generations and the picture becomes much more complicated. ”但回溯十代人，情况就复

35、杂得多了。再根据“You may be descended(遗传) from no fewer than 1,024 people through ten generations. ”你可能是不少于1024人的后裔，历经十代。所以根据上下文的语境可以判断出，it指代的是“你是多少人的后裔”。故选D项。【7题详解】主旨大意题。根据第一段“Genealogy, or researching your family tree, is a hobby that can rapidly develop into an obsession. Before you start looking for you

36、r own ancestors, read this advice from genealogist Maria McLeod.”可知，研究族谱，或者研究你的家谱，是一种爱好，可以迅速发展成为一种痴迷的爱好。在你开始寻找你自己的祖先之前，看看系谱学家玛丽亚麦克劳德的建议以及下文对建议的具体说明。可知，短文的最佳标题为“专家关于研究家族过去的建议”。故选C项。【点睛】词义猜测题是高考阅读理解中常考题型之一，可以大致分为： 定义猜词，可以根据定义信息和举例猜测词义。如文中常用refer to，be called或thats to say，such as等。 逻辑猜词可以根据同义词、反义词、因果关系

37、词等猜测词义，例如，similarly,the same as,but,however,while,on the other hand,since ,because等，所猜词与这些提示词前/后面部分的含义一样、相反或是前因后果。 语法猜词，可以根据构词法，再结合上下文进行猜词。 语境猜词，猜测词义离不开上下文的语境，通过上下文提供的情景和线索进行合理的分析，同时还要关注其所在的整段及整篇文章。 指代猜词即找出人称代词、指示代词、关系代词或关系副词等所指代的内容，做题时要注意指代词的位置，以便于判断，然后用所找的指代内容替换划线代词，核实其逻辑、意义、位置等是否一致，最后比较所找部分与选项，确定

38、意思最接近的选项。根据最后一段“But go back ten generations and the picture becomes much more complicated. ”但回溯十代人，情况就复杂得多了。再根据“You may be descended(遗传) from no fewer than 1,024 people through ten generations. ”你可能是不少于1024人的后裔，历经十代。所以根据上下文的语境可以判断出，it指代的是“你是多少人的后裔”。故小题3选D项。CWhile many of us may have been away somewh

39、ere nice last summer, few would say that weve “summered.” “Summer” is clearly a noun, more precisely, a verbed noun.Way back in our childhood, we all learned the difference between a noun and a verb. With such a tidy definition, it was easy to spot the difference. Not so in adulthood, where we are e

40、xpected to “foot” bills, “chair” committees, and “dialogue” with political opponents. Chances are you didnt feel uncomfortable about the sight of those verbed nouns.“The verbing of nouns is as old as the English language,” says Patricia OConner, a former editor at The New York Times Book Review. Exp

41、erts estimate that 20 percent of all English verbs were originally nouns. And the phenomenon seems to be snowballing. Since 1900, about 40 percent of all new verbs have come from nouns.Even though conversion (转化) is quite universal, plenty of grammarians object to the practice. William Strunk Jr. an

42、d E.B.White, in The Elements of Style the Bible for the use of American English have this to say: “Many nouns lately have been pressed into service as verbs. Not all are bad, but all are suspect.” The Chicago Manual of Style takes a similar standpoint, advising writers to use verbs with great care.“

43、Sometimes people object to a new verb because they resist what is unfamiliar to them,” says OConner. Thats why were comfortable “hosting” a party, but we might feel upset by the thought of “medaling” in sports. So are there any rules for verbing? Benjamin Dreyer, copy chief at Random House, doesnt o

44、ffer a rule, but suggests that people think twice about “verbifying” a noun if its easily replaceable by an already existing popular verb. Make sure its descriptive but not silly-sounding, he says.In the end, however, style is subjective. Easy conversion of nouns to verbs has been part of English gr

45、ammar for centuries; it is one of the processes that make English “English.” Not every coinage (新创的词语) passes into general use, but as for trying to end verbing altogether, forget it.8. What can we learn about the verbing of nouns?A. It hasnt recently been opposed by many grammarians.B. It is more c

46、ommonly accepted by children than adults.C. It hasnt been a rare phenomenon in the past century.D. It is easily replaced by existing verbs in practice9. What is most leading experts attitude towards the practice of the verbing of nouns?A. Cautious.B. Satisfied.C. Disappointed.D. Unconcerned.10. What

47、 does the author think of ending the verbing of nouns?A. Predictable.B. Practicable.C. Approaching.D. Impossible.11. What is the best title for the text?A. Are 40 Percent of all new verbs from nouns？B. Are Summering and Medaling Annoying?C. Are You Comfortable about a New Verb?D. Are There Any Rules

48、 for Verbing?【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. B【解析】本文是一篇议论文。主要内容是英语语言中“名词动用”的语言现象，据专家估计20%的英语动词原本是名词，但大多数专家对“名词动用”这类名词的使用持有谨慎态度。也有人反对新动词，因为他们抗拒自己不熟悉的东西。文章就此展开了讨论。【8题详解】推理判断题。根据第三段的Since 1900, about 40 percent of all new verbs have come from nouns.（自1900年以来，大约40%的新动词来自名词）可知，我们知道在过去的一个世纪里，名词动用并不是罕见的现象。故选C。【9题详

49、解】推理判断题。根据第四段的Not all are bad, but all are suspect.（不是所有的都是坏的，但所有的都是可疑的）和The Chicago Manual of Style takes a similar standpoint, advising writers to use verbs with great care.（芝加哥文体手册也持类似观点，建议作者小心使用动词）可知，对于名词动用的用法，大多数的专家持谨慎的态度。故选A。【10题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段的Not every coinage (新创的词语) passes into general use

50、, but as for trying to end verbing altogether, forget it.（并不是所有的造词都被广泛使用，但是想要完全停止动词的使用，还是算了吧）可知，作者认为结束名词动用用法的使用是不可能的，故选D。【11题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文以及文章的可知，英语语言中“名词动用”的语言现象，据专家估计20%的英语动词原本是名词，但大多数专家对“名词动用”这类名词的使用持有谨慎态度，但是完全杜绝这类词的使用又是不可能的。也有人反对新动词，因为他们抗拒自己不熟悉的东西，用正反两个观点来说明这类名词动用的语言现象是否受人欢迎，故引用文章中的名词动用的两个词Summe

51、ring和Medaling来进行概括，故B选项（Summering和Medaling很讨厌吗？）可以作为本文标题，故选B。DWork Your MindHeres something to think about the next time you ask your teacher for help: struggling with schoolwork on your own can help you learn. According to a recent study, the more you struggle while you are learning new information

52、, the better you can remember it later.This theory might surprise you. When teachers are presenting new information, they often give students lots of help. But a new study shows this may not be the best way to support learning. “Dont be too quick to get help when learning something new,” education e

53、xpert Manu Kapur told TFK. “Try to work on it yourself even if it means trying different ways.”Kapur came up with the idea that struggling can lead to better learning. Then he tested it out on students in Singapore. He separated students into two groups. In the first group, students were asked to so

54、lve math problems with the teachers help. In the second group, students were asked to solve the same problems by helping one another, instead of getting help from the teacher. With the teachers help, students in the first group were able to find the correct answers. Students in the second group did

55、not solve the problems correctly. But they did come up with a lot of good ideas. The students were then tested on what they had learned. The group without any help from a teacher scored much higher than the group who had help. Kapur said working to find the answers helped students understand the pro

56、cess, not just the solution.Kapurs advice for kids is to put a lot of effort into learning something new rather than going to your teacher for help. “Simply doing a little work or nothing at all wont work,” says Kapur. “The struggle needs to be a genuine attempt to figure out or solve a problem in a

57、s many ways as possible.”12. When you have doubt on schoolwork, youd better _.A. ask your teacher for helpB. make it clear by yourselfC. ask your classmates to help youD. ask your parents for help13. Whats Manu Kapur educational idea on learning new knowledge?A. Give students much help as soon as po

58、ssible.B. Let students learn it on themselves in one way.C. Let students learn it by themselves in the same way.D. Let students learn it for themselves in different ways.14. How did Kapur check his idea on better learning?A. By asking questions.B. By solving art problems.C. By group comparations.D.

59、By solving science problems.15. What is the most important in learning knowledge?A. Getting the teachers help.B. Getting the students help.C. Grasping the learning course.D. Receiving the final solution.【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. C【解析】这是一篇说明文，研究表明在学习中学习新知识、遇到难解决的问题时越是努力的思考而不是急于求助于老师是解决难题的最好解决方法，学习知识最

60、重要的是掌握学习课程，而不是简简单单地寻求答案。【12题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段的struggling with schoolwork on your own can help you learn可知，自己努力思考可以帮助你学习。所以如果你对功课有疑问，你应该自己思考。故选B项。【13题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段Dont be too quick to get help when learning something new,” education expert Manu Kapur told TFK. “Try to work on it yourself even if it mea

61、ns trying different ways.可知，教育专家曼努卡普尔（Manu Kapur）对TFK表示：“学习新事物时，不要太快寻求帮助。“即使这意味着要尝试不同的方法，也要自己动手。所以曼努卡普尔学习新知识的教育理念是让学生以不同的方式自学。故选D项。【14题详解】推理判断题，根据第三段Then he tested it out on students in Singapore. He separated students into two groups. In the first group, students were asked to solve math problems w

62、ith the teachers help. In the second group, students were asked to solve the same problems by helping one another, instead of getting help from the teacher可知，然后他在新加坡的学生身上进行了测试。他把学生分成两组。在第一组，学生们被要求在老师的帮助下解决数学问题。在第二组，学生被要求通过互相帮助来解决同样的问题，而不是从老师那里得到帮助。由此判断出普尔是通过两组不同的学生进行比较来证实他的观点的。故选C项。【15题详解】细节理解题，根据倒数

63、第二段最后一句Kapur said working to find the answers helped students understand the process, not just the solution可知，卡普尔说，努力寻找答案有助于学生理解这个过程，而不仅仅是解决答案。所以学习知识最重要的是掌握学习课程。故选C项。第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。Experience-Based EducationEveryone is familiar with traditional educati

87、ent阻止；C. remove移除；D. change改变。根据空前表示转折的“But”及空后的“Simmons from following his _9_.”可知，尽管只有四根手指，但这并没有阻止西蒙斯追随自己的激情，故B项正确。【29题详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意同上。A. actions行动；B. roads道路；C. instructions指令；D. passions激情。根据空后的“With no formal training, Simmons taught himself by ear how to play the piano.”可知，没有受过正式的训练，西蒙斯就靠听觉自学

88、弹钢琴，这说明他的这种身体条件并没有阻止他追随自己的激情学习钢琴，故D项正确。【30题详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：他一遍遍地练习，找到了一种用四根手指触键的方法，同时用假肢控制踏板。A. reach达到、伸出手；B. repair修理；C. remove移除；D. clean打扫。根据空后的“the keys with four fingers”可知，西蒙斯设法用四根手指触键，故A项正确。【31题详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：西蒙斯知道他必须形成自己的演奏风格。A. adopt采取；B. abandon遗弃；C. develop发展、形成；D. change改变。根据空后的“his own

91、gers to adjust and teach me with only four”可知，西蒙斯说对于一个已经学会用十根手指弹钢琴的人来说，仅仅用四根手指来调整和教他是非常困难的，故B项正确。【36题详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意：西蒙斯的母亲塔玛拉对他的成就并不感到惊讶。A. ideas主意；B. creations创造；C. difficulties困难；D. achievements成就。根据空前的“The now 18-year-old not only learned how to play and read music but also began composing.”可知，现在

94、说，“如果我在一群人面前表演，我看到一个人在微笑，那就说明我做得很好”，这说明他想成为鼓舞别人的动力，故D项正确。【点睛】本篇第14空B项because的干扰性较大，注意because与why引导表语从句的区别，thats because表示“那是因为”，后面接原因；而thats why表示“那是为什么（的原因）”，后面接结果，空后的“it was hard for me to take piano lessons”属于结果，此处是说：这就是我很难上钢琴课的原因，故A项（why）正确。第二节 语法填空（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括

99、这意味着许多饲养员要为在泰国4000头被圈养的大象提供食物。根据全文内容，可知这是在描述主语现在的状态，用一般现在时。句子主语是 An almost total absence of visitors，中心词是absence，谓语动词应用单数第三人称形式。故填means。【43题详解】考查介词。句意：这些动物一天可以吃光多达200公斤的食物。介词to意思为“达到”。故填to。【44题详解】考查名词。句意：拯救大象基金会的创始人Lek Chailert告诉BBC：“如果没有援助能保证他们的安全，这些大象，其中一些已经怀孕，要么饿死，要么就会被赶到街上去乞讨食物”。所填词是Lek Chailert

100、的同位语，应该是名词；根据句意，应是“创立者”。故填founder。【45题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：拯救大象基金会的创始人Lek Chailert告诉BBC：“如果没有援助能保证他们的安全，这些大象，其中一些已经怀孕，要么饿死，要么就会被赶到街上去乞讨食物”。此处是不定式作后置定语，修饰名词support。故填to keep。【46题详解】考查并列结构。句意：拯救大象基金会的创始人Lek Chailert告诉BBC：“如果没有援助能保证他们的安全，这些大象，其中一些已经怀孕，要么饿死，要么就会被赶到街上去乞讨食物”。 根据句意，应是并列结构“either or”，意思为“要么要么，或者或者

101、”。故填either。【47题详解】考查被动语态。句意：“一些大象可能被卖给动物园，或者他们可能会被送回非法伐木业，而非法伐木业于1989年就正式禁止使用大象。”根据句意，主语they和return之间为逻辑上的被动关系，在情态动词may后用be done形式。故填be returned。【48题详解】考查副词。句意：“一些大象可能被卖给动物园，或者他们可能会被送回非法伐木业，而非法法伐木于1989年就正式禁止使用大象。”修饰谓语动词banned，应用副词形式。故填officially。【49题详解】考查形容词。句意：Lek Chailert补充说：“在立即得到一些经济援助之前，是没有希望的。

102、”根据句意，应是“没有希望的”，该空作is后的表语，用形容词，故填hopeless。【50题详解】考查冠词。句意：在最好的情况下，让这些动物有吃的，保持健康都是一个挑战；但现在是旱季，这使情况变得更糟。 best是形容词最高级，前面应该用定冠词the。短语at the best of times “在最有利的情况下”。故填the。第三部分 写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节 短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）51.英语课上，老师要求同桌之间相互修改作文。假设以下短文为你同桌所写，请你对其进行修改。短文中共有10处错误，每句中最多有两处。错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加:在缺词

106、对克隆人类有不同的看法，作者也发表了自己的观点。【详解】第一处：考查时态。句意：但问题来了我们该克隆人类么？文章的基础时态为一般现在时，且主语为a problem，谓语动词用第三人称单数，故came改为comes。第二处：考查状语从句的省略。句意：当被问及这个问题时，很多对这个话题感兴趣的人认为克隆人类是有益的。在when引导的状语从句中，当主从句主语一致且含有be的某种形式时，从句的主语和be可以省略，本句中省略了they are，另外，此处也不是表示正在进行，being是多余的，故删掉being。第三处：考查定语从句。分析句子可知，先行词为people，指人，关系词在从句中作主语，故whi

107、ch改为who /that。第四处：考查副词。句意：然而，其他一些人，包括我，反对这个想法。此处表示转折关系，故Therefore改为However。第五处：考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知，me 和include之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，用过去分词表示被动，故, including改为included。第六处：考查名词。句意：克隆人类会带来负面的影响和错误的信息。information是不可数名词，没有复数形式，故informations改为information。第七处：考查副词。句意：首先，他们可能不会像正常人一样被平等对待，我相信这会让他很痛苦。修饰动词treated用副词，故equal改为

108、equally。第八处：考查代词。根据前面的they判断此处用them，故him改为them。第九处：考查固定搭配。句意：其次，克隆人可能会导致社会混乱，而且相当危险。in the second place表示“其次、第二点”，故在in后加the。第十处：考查固定短语。lead to表示“导致”，故in改为to。第一节 书面表达（满分25分）52.假定你是某某中学校学生会主席李华，针对目前同学们逐渐返校，但是新型冠状病毒仍然没有得到完全的控制，于是你受学生会委托，面向全校学生写一封倡议信，号召同学们在学校一定要做好自我保护。内容包括：1. 养成良好的个人卫生习惯；2. 避免同学之间的密切接触，
