It was reported that people living in the disaster-stricken areas were forced to leave their houses and seek shelter in nearby towns.Monsoon StormsA south-west monsoon has caused great damage in parts of Sri Lanka. Government meteorologists said that unexpected monsoonal winds blew directly across the country from the southern part of the earth at about 100km/h, producing several rounds of stormy weather. Nearly 250 houses in the capital Colombo were damaged.Mt Etna EruptionSicily Mount Etna volcano erupted shortly after midnight on July 1, shooting “bombs” of lava (岩浆) on the eastern side of the mountain. The 30-minute eruption could be seen for several miles but did not threaten any nearby villages.HurricaneHurricane Blas lost its power as it moved over cooler waters in the Pacific Ocean to the west of Mexico. Blas formed off southwest Mexico during the last week, but the outer part of the storm swept western Michoacan State, killing four people when their wood and cardboard home fell down.Monkey RepellentAfter years of unsuccessful attempts to keep crop-eating monkeys out of Japanese fields, a Tokyo research team believes that it may have finally found a way to prevent the damage caused by the monkeys. Animal ruin of crops was successfully prevented by shooting chili powder into the air, irritating the eyes and noses of monkeys that passed in front of carefully placed warning. “Weve tried all kinds of preventive measures, but the monkeys are bright enough to outsmart the tricks,” said Toshiaki Wada, Director of the Tokyo Forestry Experiment Station in western Tokyo.21. According to the text, which natural disaster might have caused the least damage to residents?A. Storms.B. Monsoon Storms.C. Mt Etna Eruption.D. Hurricane.22. How did Toshiaki Wada describe the monkeys?A. Clever.B. Powerful.C. Destructive.D. Lovable.23. Where can we probably find the text?A. In a lab report.B. In a daily newspaper.C. In a travel brochure.D. On a community noticeboard.BThe annual marathon in my town occurred as scheduled. My job was to follow behind the runners in an ambulance in case any of them needed medical attention. As the athletes began to pace themselves, the front runners started to disappear. It was then that my eyes were drawn to the woman in blue running shorts and a baggy white T-shirt.I knew we were already watching our “last runner”. Her feet turned in, yet her left knee was turned out. Her legs were so crippled and bent that it seemed impossible for her to walk, let alone run a marathon.The driver and I watched in silence as she slowly moved forward. We would move forward a little bit, then stop and wait for her to gain some distance. Then we d slowly move forward a little bit more. As I watched her struggle to put one foot in front of the other, I found myself expecting her and urging her forward. I wanted her to stop, and at the same time, I hoped that she wouldnt.Finally she was the only runner left in sight. I sat on the edge of my seat and watched with respect and amazement as she pushed forward with strong determination through the last miles. When the finish line came into sight, the cheering crowds had long gone home. Yet she didnt give up and crossed the line.I dont know this womans name, but that day she became a part of my life a part I often depend on. For her, it wasnt about beating the other runners or winning a prize. It was about finishing what she had set out to do. When I think things are too difficult or I get those “I-just-cant-do-it,” I think of the last runner. Then I realize how easy the task before me really is.24. What does the underlined word “crippled” in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Perfect.B. Athletic.C. Disabled.D. Slim.25. Which of the following can best describe the woman?A. Confident and brave.B. Proud and determined.C. Hard-working and responsible.D. Strong-willed and honorable.26. What has the author learnt from the woman?A. Dont depend on others when facing difficulties.B. Nothing is too hard to accomplish if one is brave enough.C. Those who have difficulty walking can also run a marathon.D. Its not winning but holding on to the end that really matters.27. What could be the best title for the text?A. The Last RunnerB. An Injured StrangerC. An Unforgettable EventD. The Annual MarathonCSome people say global English is no longer just controlled by British or American English,but is running free and developing uniquely local forms.Can you figure out the following terms?“I like your smile,but unlike you put your shoes on my face.”This is a way of saying“Keep off the grass.”Or“people mountain,people sea”,which means“very crowded”.These examples are what we call Chinglish.When it comes to Chinglish,if all you know is“good good study,day day up”,you will be considered“out man”.Nowadays,more Chinglish words have been created,for example,a Chinese idiom is translated as“smilence”,a combination by the English word smile and silence.Chinglish usually offers a humorous look at misuses of the English language in Chinese street signs,products,and advertising.They are favoured by some English speaking tourists and visitors.Dominic Swire has been living in Beijing for a couple of years.“I think many Chinese people complain about the Chinglish and badly translated English.But you know,sometimes for us foreigners,its actually quite charming to see them.I think if the translations of English in China were all perfect,then something would be lost from Chinese culture.”However,Chinglish will probably become a“cultural relic”in the near future.Beijing has made a comprehensive plan to improve foreign language services and correct Chinglish within five years.“It is very ridiculous to see Chinglish on the signs in some scenic spots.And they are a kind of barrier for communication between Chinese and people from other countries,”a Beijinger said.Some Chinese university experts side with Chinglish.They argue that English has absorbed elements from other languages such as French and Spanish in its growth,and now its Chineses turn.28. What can we call Chinglish?A. English words which get new Chinese meanings.B. The Chinese words which are difficult to translate.C. The words combining English vocabulary and Chinese grammar.D. The local words preventing foreigners from learning Chinese well.29. What does“smilence”most probably mean?A. Saying nothing but to smile.B. Smiling without being noticed.C. Laughing at somebody.D. Knowing little about speech.30. What is Swires attitude to Chinglish?A. It can show the humour of Chinese.B. It will attract more foreign tourists.C. It helps him to learn Chinese well.D. It seems part of Chinese culture.31. Why Chinglish is likely to become a“cultural relic”in Beijing?A. Because it has become a unique bridge between Chinese and English.B. Because Chinglish is a chance to enrich Chinese and English.C. Because it improves the understanding between Chinese and foreigners.D. Because Beijing is determined to get rid of Chinglish signs.DSocial media is taking over our lives: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and now, TikTok. These social media platforms have changed from a way to stay connected to an industry where even kids can make money off their posts. While this may seem like another opportunistic innovation, its really full of hidden false realities.The median income (中位收入) recorded in the United States of America was about $63,000 in 2018. TikTokers can make anywhere from $50,000 to $150,000 for a TikTok brand partnership, and TikTokers with over a million followers can make up to $30,000 a month$360,000 a year. They are making more than the average person trying to feed their family and keep a roof over their heads simply by posting a 15-second video.This is mad in more ways than one. Not only is it an overpaid “job”, it promotes undeserved admiration from viewers and a false sense of reality. Many of these famous TikTokers are still teens and the effects of fame at such an early stage in life might cause issues later in life, such as mental illness. Teens between the ages of 13 and 17 make up 27% of TikTok viewers, who can be easily influenced by what they are watching. They can put a false sense of self-value into who they look up to and what they represent: money, fame, being considered conventionally attractive.While TikTok has become a great tool for marketing, its important to understand how this content affects young viewers. If were constantly consuming content that shows us all we need to do to be successful is be conventionally attractive and post a 15-second video featuring a new dance, it will challenge our knowledge of what really makes someone successful and will in turn affect our individual work ethnics (伦理). What about the people who miss birthdays and family holidays due to their jobs and arent getting paid nearly as much as these TikTokers?Richard Colyer, president and creator of Metaphor, Inc, had his own view on this issue. “It sounds great that kids can make money for doing the latest dance moves in a 15-second video, but we should feed the minds of kids and not just their bank accounts. TikTok can be great if used properly. Money alone is not good; technology alone is not good and connectedness can be bad if it is only online.”Again, as a fellow consumer of TikTok, I do enjoy the app when I have some time to kill and need a good laugh. Im not against someone making a living on entertainment, but what does getting famous by posting a 15-second video teach young people?32. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. Social networking.B. A job offered by TikTok.C. Making money on social media.D. Staying connected to the Internet.33. What does the author try to indicate in Paragraph 2?A. TikTokers can hardly make ends meet.B. Social media platforms like TikTok can make people overpaid.C. Teens are wise to make a huge amount of money from TikTok.D. TikTokers earn such a high income that they can support their family.34. Which is the possible influence of TikTok on its young users?A. They are likely to develop false values.B. They tend to live an adult life too soon.C. They are forced to pay for certain services.D. They may stop believing other social media.35 What did Richard Colyer stress according to his view?A. Contents of videos need checking before their release online.B. We have a responsibility to supply teens with food for thought.C. Young TikTokers should be banned from opening bank accounts.D. Money and technology can be good if used properly by TikTokers.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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Self-management refers to self-control, which is a sign of inner power. There is no one easy or simple way to learn it, as everyones mind works differently from another. _36_ Heres a list of ways to develop self-management skills.Have goalsIf something is important enough for you, it should be written down somewhere as your goal. Whether it is losing some weight or finishing a course with a certain grade, having a goal to reach is important for your motivation. You can certainly have more than one goal. _37_Set a scheduleDaily or weekly schedules give you more of a feeling that things are being accomplished (完成).
