A tutor is someone who teaches one person or a very small group of students.When Goyals high school moved online last spr

15、ing because of COVID-19, she decided to also take her teaching online. The 17-year-old junior and three of her fellow students created TutorScope, a program that offers free tutoring services to other children, including younger ones. It started with a small number of tutors who helped young people

16、in their city. But it has grown into a group of 22 tutors from Texas, Arizona and Ohio. They have helped more than 300 students, some from as far away as South Korea.TutorScope aims to give the one-on-one help that teachers have traditionally given while walking around their classrooms. But now, man

17、y teachers cannot provide that one-on-one support because they lack time or have issues with technology.Sarah Newman said her children, 7-year-old twins, have had helpful TutorScope experiences. The service has freed up her and her 17-year-old son in pay attention to their work. With these tutors, I

18、 realize they have time,“ she said, “I think they are very patient with these younger kids， which I do not even have as a mother. I have patience in other things, but I dont have patience for teaching.What makes the TutorScope effort special is the connection between the teenage volunteers and the o

19、ther students they are helping. Although the pandemic（疫情）has forced many students to look inward, Goyal said that working with others on a big project has permitted her to look outward. My confidence level has increased, Goyal said. She added that she has made friends with other students from her sc

22、he cart before the horse.B. A friend in need is a friend indeed.C. No man can do two things at once.D. Helping others will benefit oneself.CChildren learn to construct language from those around them. Until about the age of three, children tend to learn to develop their language by modeling the spee

23、ch of their parents, but from that time on, peers have a growing influence as models for language development in children. It is easy to observe that, when adults and old children interact with younger children, they tend to change their language to improve communication with younger children, and t

24、his changed language is called caretaker speech.When speaking to young children most people will, without thinking, find ways to simplify their language. A caretaker will speak in one way with adults and in a very different way with young children. Caretaker speech tends to be slower speech with sho

25、rt simple words which are said in a high-pitched (高嗓音)voice with strong inflections (音调变化) and many repetitions of essential information.Caretaker speech serves the very important function of allowing young children to acquire (学得) language more easily. The simplified words and sentences make it eas

26、ier for the small child to begin to comprehend, and the repetitions strengthen the childs developing understanding. Then, as a childs speech develops, caretakers tend to adjust their language to a level that is slightly above that of a younger child. Without recognition of what they are doing, these

27、 caretakers will speak in one way to a one-year-old and in a more complex (复杂的) way as the child reaches the age of two or three.There are debates among experts about whether caretaker speech is a natural function or a learned one. Those who believe that caretaker speech is a natural function in hum

28、ans believe that it is human nature for children to acquire language and for those around them to encourage children to learn language naturally; the presence of a child is itself a natural stimulus (刺激) that increases the rate of caretaker speech among those present.However, other experts believe t

29、hat caretaker speech develops through nurturing (教育) rather than nature. They argue that people will try out different ways to communicate with a child and according to the childs responses, choose the most effective speech; a parent might, for example, learn to use speech with strong inflections wi

30、th a small child because the strong inflections do a better job attracting the childs attention than do more small inflections.28. According to the text, children over the age of three _.A. learn little language from those around themB. are no longer influenced by the language of their parentsC stop

31、 using caretaker speech in communication.D. are influenced more by those closer to their own age29. Which of the following is TRUE about caretaker speech?A. Most people are not familiar with the use of caretaker speech.B.Young children use caretaker speech to express themselves C. .People generally

32、speak louder to young children without realizing it.D. Caretaker speech cannot be understood if it is said only once.30. It can be learned that parents tend to _.A. speak in the same way to a one-year-old and a three-year-oldB. use language that is far above the language level of a childC. speak in

33、a progressively less complex way as a child grows upD. change their speech according to the language development of a child31. It can be inferred that someone who believes in nurture over nature _.A. doesnt believe children have a born ability to learn languageB. prefers to communicate with children

34、 in adults languageC. encourages parents to adjust their speech to childrens needsD. has a better understanding of childrens language learningDIf Mars were the popular kid in school，Venus （金星）would be the unwelcome one sitting in the corner，largely ignored. Venus has nearly the same mass and size as

35、 Earth，but being closer to the sun，it gets nearly twice as much heat from the sun.However，instead of having a climate that is just a warmer version of Earths，Venuss surface and atmosphere are unbearable：clouds of sulphuric acid blanket the planet，while at ground level，it is hot enough to melt lead.

36、Despite this，there is now a sign that Venus may harbour life.Jane Greaves at Cardiff University，UK，and her colleagues recently detected phosphine （磷化氢）in Venuss atmosphere，with one potential explanation that it is the by-product of biology. That is because the only way this gas is made on Earth is i

37、n laboratories or by microbes（微生物）.Though this doesnt mean it was produced by life on Venus，attempts to find nonbiological explanations for its presence have so far failed.Our best way of confirming or rejecting the possibility of life on Venus is to go and have a proper look. While Mars has been th

38、e focus of interplanetary exploration efforts lately，the phosphine discovery lets people look at Venus in a new light. As NASA administrator Jim Bridenstine tweeted：“Its time to prioritize Venus.”In the months and years to come，computer simulations will be used to further study the possible chemistr

39、ies of the atmosphere on Venus. More laboratory experiments will be conducted to try to identify other ways the phosphine there could be produced. However， there is no guarantee that these efforts will reveal the true nature of this substance on Venus. A newly-proposed strategy is to directly sample

40、 the atmosphere and surface of Venus. By doing so，we would be able to take direct measurements of phosphine.The discovery of phosphine in Venuss atmosphere is a great accomplishment. The scientific efforts may be just what we need to finally refocus on this neglected world. Possibly， the quiet kid i

41、n the corner may get the last laugh.32. In theory，whats Venus expected to be like?A. It is almost as large as Earth.B. It has nearly the same mass as Earth.C. It has the unbearable surface and atmosphere.D. It has a warmer Earth-like climate.33. What can the discovery of phosphine on Venus indicate?

42、A. There might exist signs of life.B. This kind of gas is very common.C. Many products can be made with it.D. Experiments were once conducted there.34. What is paragraph 5 mainly about?A.The approaches to exploring phosphine.B. The power of computer simulations.C The importance of observations. D. T

43、he necessity to analyse phosphine.35. Which can best describe the authors attitude to the exploration of Venus?A. Casual.B. Doubtful. C. Cautious.D. Supportive. 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。One of the most basic core values is honesty. It impacts our entire life

44、: our jobs,our relationships, our own feelings about ourselves and the actions we take. It sets an example for our children and it influences the people around us. 36 .“Have the courage to say no. Have the courage to face the truth. Do the right thing because it is right.” “Have the Courage to Say N

45、o” 37 .When a good friend or a family member forces us to do something that we know is dishonest, it takes courage to say no. “Have the Courage to Face the Truth” Sometimes the truth hurts and we want to deny it or not believe it. 38 ,There are those who would prefer to take the easy way out and jus

46、t ignore it. And sometimes by accepting the truth we are showing courage. “Do the Right Thing Because It Is Right”We all know in our hearts what the right thing to do is, 39 .Stick to what you think is right.40 When I was in a Wal-Mart store, there was a teenage girl ahead of me. She paid for her it
