A constant, ever since I could hold a pen, has been the routine at lunch with my grandfather. My grandmother will ask me how the walk from my parents' house was before I take a seat at their kitchen table.My grandfather is sitting in his usual spot in the corner. He looks up for a quick “hello” before heading back down to the crossword puzzle in front of him.“So, how is this one coming along？” I'll ask. With a failed laugh, he'll slide the crossword toward me. Carefully cut and neatly folded from his newspaper, three quarters of it will already have been finished. Many of the clues (线索) are far too advanced for me to figure out. However, I'm happy to help with the strange clue related to sportsmy expert knowledge that still remains.Even if I'm certain of an answer, I fill in the squares with a pencil, as clues are always checked thoroughly by my grandfather. In the rare event that we're unable to finish the crossword by the end of lunch, he'll call me later that evening to go over the clues he later solved.Today, lunch unfolds in its usual manner. However, large parts of the puzzle are blank.“Grandfather, I think this is 49­down . and this, 52­across，” I say.“Oh, right. Yes, put that down there，” he replies.I reach across the table to hand him the crossword. Looking at him as he searches for answers, suddenly I feel something different. I note his hair is whiter than I remembered. For the first time I think about my grandfather as, well, a grandfather.But life is about changechange we aren't always prepared for. Just as we are on different ends of life, we find ourselves on different ends of the city now too.But at lunch, when we take up our pens and open the crossword, the world stands pleasantly still. Now, instead of an exercise of quick wit (才思), our crosswords are about patience and understanding. As clues are slowly understood, so are the truths in life.【语篇解读】作者每次去看望爷爷，爷爷总是在做纵横字谜游戏。他会让作者参与游戏，祖孙俩讨论如何解开字谜。有一次作者突然发现爷爷的头发白了好多，作者才意识到爷爷真的老了。作者在文章最后感慨：生活是关于变化的，对于这些变化我们有时会措手不及，但是和爷爷一起做纵横字谜游戏时，世界处于令人愉快的安静中。生活中的真理如同纵横字谜中的线索一样慢慢地被理解。1What is the grandfather usually doing when the author visits him?AHe is preparing lunch happily as a routine.BHe is sitting in the corner working at riddles.CHe is concentrating all his efforts on the crossword.DHe is cutting crossword puzzles from newspapers carefully.解析：C 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“He looks up for a quick hello before heading back down to the crossword puzzle in front of him.”可知，作者看望他时，他通常都在专心做纵横字谜游戏。故选C项。2The phrase “go over” in Paragraph 4 probably means“ ”ArepeatBswitchCdiscover Dprovide解析：A词义猜测题。根据第四段中的“as clues are always .he later solved”可知，作者的爷爷总是仔细检查线索，在极少数情况下，在午饭结束时他们还不能解答这个纵横字谜，作者的爷爷在那天晚上晚些时候会给作者打电话，告诉作者他后来破解的线索。故选A项。3Which of the following words can best describe the grandfather?AQuiet and optimistic.BHumorous and helpful.CEnthusiastic and careful.DIndependent and funny.解析：C推理判断题。根据第二、三、四段内容可知，作者的爷爷沉迷于做纵横字谜游戏，也让作者参与到纵横字谜游戏中，并且有时当天晚上晚些时候还会向作者打电话告诉作者他后来破解的线索，可见他热衷于做这个游戏；再结合第三段中的“Carefully cut and neatly folded from his newspaper”和第四段提到的作者的爷爷总是仔细检查线索可知，他是一个“细致的”人。故选C项。4What does the author think of the crosswords now?AThey bring his grandparents closer to him.BThey improve his intelligence and patience.CThey encourage him to solve problems in life.DThey help him to understand the truths of life.解析：D推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“As clues are slowly understood，so are the truths in life.”可知，作者认为纵横字谜游戏的线索是慢慢被理解的，生活中的真理也是慢慢被理解的，故可推知现在作者认为纵横字谜游戏有助于作者理解生活中的真理。故选D项。BUS and Canadian researchers recently calculated the total amount of the world's groundwater and estimated that it is equal to a lake 180 metres deep covering the entire Earth. This makes groundwater the largest active freshwater resource on the planet. The team also investigated its age. How did they do this?Humans introduced a convenient time signature on the Earth when we started testing atomic (原子的) weapons. This leaves a time stamp which can be found in water, rocks and living organisms. By seeing if radioactivity (放射性) from atomic bomb testing was present in the groundwater, the researchers could estimate that about 6% of this groundwater is younger than 50 years old. If this water was spread evenly over the continents, then there would be just three metres in depth of “modern” groundwater spread equally over the continents.It could be argued that if we use only this “modern”groundwater, then this is sustainable, as we know that it has been replaced (or recharged) by natural processes over the last 50 years. But how quickly groundwater recharges changes over time.Water has to reach the inside of rocks, either now or in the past. This means that the amount of rainfall has to be more than the amount of water evaporating (蒸发) from the land surface, and more than the amount of water used by all the plants. When this occurs, freshwater can recharge the groundwater either from water “leaking” from the beds of rivers or from rainwater that passes through the soil.In many parts of the world we know that groundwater recharge varies due to natural climate variability such as El Nino. Groundwater recharge will also change with global warming.【语篇解读】文章主要说明了地下水成为地球上最大的活淡水资源，同时研究小组还估算了地下水的年龄，研究了地下水补给的问题等。5In order to know the age of groundwater, we can .Afind its time stampBtest atomic weaponsCexamine its freshnessDspread groundwater equally解析：A细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“This leaves a time stamp which can be found in water, rocks and living organisms”“the researchers could estimate that about 6% of this groundwater is younger than 50 years old”可判断出，为了了解地下水的年龄，我们就要找到地下水的time stamp(时间标记)。故选A项。6What do people think of the supply of “modern” groundwater?AIt's fresh. BIt's limited.CIt's vital. DIt's sufficient.解析：B推理判断题。根据文章第二段中的“ If this water was spread evenly over the continents . spread equally over the continents.”可知，如果这些水均匀地分布在大陆上，那么平均分布在大陆上的“现代”地下水只有3米深。这也就意味着“现代”地下水是有限的。故选B项。7What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 4 refer to?AWater evaporating.BWater leaking from river beds.CWater getting into rocks.DWater being used by all the plants.解析：C词义猜测题。根据this所在句子可知：当这种情况发生时，淡水可以用从河床“渗漏”的水或通过土壤的雨水来补充地下水。this指的是上文的“Water has to reach the inside of rocks”(水必须到达岩石的内部)这一信息。故选C项。8What are the last three paragraphs mainly talking about?AClimate variability.BGlobal warming.CGroundwater exploration.DGroundwater sustainability.解析：D段落大意题。文章第三段说明如果我们只使用这种“现代”地下水，那么这种地下水是可持续的；第四段说明水必须到达岩石的内部才能使地下水得到补充；第五段说明全球气候的变化会对地下水的补充造成影响。显然，最后三段主要说明了地下水的可持续性。故选D项。.完形填空A 22yearold aircraft maintenance engineer living in Dubai, Zachariah was visiting the southwest India state of Kerala for a family wedding when a lockdown was declared.
