二、阅读判断
Do you often listen to music at loud volumes (音量)? You should know that this habit is bad for your hearing. Over 1 billion young people are at risk of hearing loss (听力丧失) ,because of listening to loud noise for long periods of time. Listening to music or watching a TV show at loud volumes can harm your hearing.
The United Nations has standards for safe listening. It is not safe to listen to sounds that
试题第6页，总20页
are louder than 85 dB (分贝) for eight hours or 100 dB for 15 minutes. The sound of a busy road is about 85 dB and the sound of a rock concert can be about 100 dB.
Loud noise is harmful to the inner ear . Most of us are bon with about 16,000 hair cells (听毛细胞) in our inner ears. These cells notice sounds. However, listening to loud noise for a long time can make these cells work too hard and cause some of them to die. This is what causes hearing loss. Once this happens, it's hard to get your hearing back.
Some people might think that their music isn't all that loud. But this can depend on where you are. For example, if you are in a noisy place like the subway, you might turn up your music too loud without realizing it. Later, when you listen to it at the same volume in a quiet place, you alight feel uncomfortable
The "safe level" for most sound is below 80 dB for up to 40 hours a week. A level of 80 dB is about equal to (相当于) the noise of a subway.
Here is some advice on safe listening. Over-the-ear headphones (头戴式耳机) are better than in-ear ones. They do a better job of stopping outside noise, so you can listen at a lower volume. Don't listen to loud music on your headphones for a long time. Follow the 60:60 rule: listen to music at 60 percent of your headphones' maximum volume for no more than 60 minutes a day.
根据短文内容，判断下列句子正误。

正确的用“A”表示，不正确的用“B”表示。

15．It is safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 100 dB for 15 minutes
16．Listening to loud noise for a long time can cause some hair cells in the inner ear to die. 17．From the fourth paragraph, we know people don't always realize how loud their music is. 18．In-ear headphones are better than over-the-eat ones because they can stop more outside noise.
19．This article mainly tells us why ears are an important part of our bodies. 【答案】 15．B 16．A 17．A 18．B 19．B 【解析】
【分析】
本文主要讲述了长时间听大音量的音乐会对我们的听力造成伤害。

15．根据第一段t is not safe to listen to sounds that are louder than 85 dB (分贝) for eight hours or 100 dB for 15 minutes. 听8小时大于85分贝（分贝）或15分钟大于100分贝的声音是不安全的。

所以此句和原文是矛盾的，故用B 表示。

16．根据第二段However, listening to loud noise for a long time can make these cells work too hard and cause some of them to die. 然而，长时间听大噪音会使这些细胞工作得太辛苦，导致其中一些细胞死亡。

所以此句和原文是一致的，故用A 表示。

17．根据第四段For example, if you are in a noisy place like the subway, you might turn up your music too loud without realizing it. 比如当你在地铁的时候，你可能会把你的音乐调得太大而没有意识到。

所以当人们在比较嘈杂的环境时，可能不能意识到音乐的声音有多大，故此题说法和原文一致，故用A 表示。

18．根据原文Over-the-ear headphones (头戴式耳机) are better than in-ear ones. They do a better job of stopping outside noise,可知头戴式耳麦比耳麦好，它们在阻止外界噪音方面做得更好。

故此句说法和原文是相反的，故用B 表示。

19．通过阅读全文可知，本文主要讲了长时间听大音量的音乐会对听力造成伤害，而并没有讲为什么耳朵是我们身体的重要组成部分，此选项错误，故用B 表示。

三、阅读单选
Do you want to improve your physics and chemistry grades? Well, maybe you should first learn something about the struggles (奋斗) of great scientists.
The American Psychological Association did an interesting study. More than 400 students from schools in New York City took part in it. The students were divided into three groups. Group 1 read a typical textbook that describes the achievements of great scientists. Group 2 read about those scientists' personal struggles. For example, as a Jew, Einstein (爱因斯坦) ran away from Nazi Germany to avoid persecution (迫害). The last group read about the scientists' intellectual struggles, such as Marie Curie's failed scientific tests. These stories about struggles also told students how the scientists dealt with these obstacles 障碍) .
The students took a science exam before the study. After the six-week study, they took another. Scientists found those in Groups 2 and 3 improved their science grades. Students in Group 1 didn't see a grade increase. Some of them even had lower grades after the study.
试题第8页，总20页
The study was led by Xiaodong Lin-Siegler, a teacher at Columbia University. According to Xiaodong, kids often think Einstein was truly intelligent. They believe they will never match him.
Many of them fail to realize that any success requires a long journey. Along the way, there are many failures 失败) .
Students who read the struggle stories more probably said that great scientists were like themselves. The "great minds" also had to overcome obstacles to achieve success.
Xiaodong says today's science textbooks fail to bring science to life. As a result, students seldom regard science as part of their everyday lives. Instead, they just see a long list of facts that they have to remember. Xiaodong thinks textbooks should include more stories about how great scientists had to struggle to succeed.

We have found plastic in the ocean and in animals like birds, fish and whales. But for the first time, scientists have found plastic in human poop (大便) , USA Today reported. The findings came from a study led by scientists from Environment Agency Austria 25． The volunteers wrote down what they ate for a week and then provided a stool sample (大便样本) for testing.
26．About 20 small plastic particles (IM) were found in every 10 grams (克) of stool. "The smallest plastic particles can enter the blood, the lymphatic system, and may even reach the liver (肝脏)," said Philipp Schwabl, who took part in the research. 27．They’re not sure how the plastic got in the volunteers' bodies, either. But most of the volunteers said they drank from plastic bottles and also ate seafood that could include plastic from ocean pollution.
In fact, plastic is everywhere around us. Every year, lots of plastic waste goes into the ocean. 28． Most of the particles stay in the ocean. Others can spread into the soil. and air. Could plastic in the air fall onto food and get into the human body?
Some past studies may also give us a clue. 29．And even some drinking water has been found to have tiny plastic particles in it.
根据短文内容从方框中选出五个句子填入文中空缺处使短文内容通顺完整。

29．C
【解析】
【分析】
我们在一些海洋动物中发现了塑料，而且最近科学家在人类粪便中也发现了塑料。

为此科学家对一些志愿者做了实验，证明确实人体中含有塑料，并说明了塑料是如何进入海洋动物和人体的。

25．根据后文The volunteers wrote down what they ate for a week….既然这里提到志愿者，所以是科学家们对一些志愿者们进行了研究，结合选项这和D选项“科学家们跟踪了来自世界各地的八名健康志愿者”内容是一致的，故选D。

26．因为前文提到了科学家对8名志愿者进行了研究，所以这里要对研究结果进行说明，所以F “根据这项研究，科学家在粪便样本中发现了九种不同的塑料”，是研究结果，故选F。

27．根据后文They’re not sure how the plastic got in the volunteers' bodies, either. 他们也不确定塑料是如何进入志愿者体内的。

这里提到了“也不确定”，所以前文是“不确定….”, 故这和E中“不确定塑料是否对人类有害”是对应的，故选E。

28．根据前文Every year, lots of plastic waste goes into the ocean. 每年都有大量的塑料废料流入海洋。

所以这里要说明塑料进入海洋之后发生了什么，故这和A选项“在那里，阳光和海浪把塑料垃圾分解成很小的碎片。

”是对应的，故选A。

29．根据后文even some drinking water has been found to have tiny plastic particles in it. 提到甚至在一些饮用水中也发现了塑料颗粒，所以这里在说“在….中存在塑料颗粒”，故这和C选项中的“90% of sea salt which is sold in the world includes plastic.”是对应的，故选C。

【点睛】
本题属于选择句子补全短文，每个选项和上下文之间都有一定的联系，所以在写这类题目时阅读上下文，从上下文找出和选项之间的联系是至关重要的。

例如第3小题，我们需要找的关键信息就是后文中的they are not sure….., either。

既然在表达“也不确定…..”, 可以推测前面一定在说某件不确定的事情，对照选项，E选项中的 the scientists aren't sure
和此处是有联系的，故选E。

国王认为金子是世界上最好的东西，虽然他拥有了很多金子，但是想拥有更多，所以他找到了仙女，仙女答应帮他实现愿望，他所触摸到的一切东西都变成了金子，包括食物和他的女儿。

这时他很后悔，又一次找到仙女，通过此事，仙女让他认识到了世界上最好的东西并不是金子。

30．根据前文He had more gold than any other king in the world他比世界上其它任何一个国王都有更多的黄金，所以是世界上最富有的人，是最高级，故填richest，故选D。

31．句意：“你的愿望会实现的，”仙女说。

根据后文From tomorrow morning, you can turn everything you touch into gold.从明天开始你所接触到的一切都很变成金子，可以推测仙女答应他实现愿望，故这里表示“实现”，故选A。

32．句意：他用手指摸了摸床，床就变成了金子。

根据句子中的动词“touch”触摸，所以是用手去触摸，故选E。

33．句意：然而，他一碰到一碗牛奶，碗里的牛奶就变成了金子。

根据句子结构，这里需要一个连词，来连接两个句子，结合选项，故用as soon as表示“一….就”，故选C。

34．句意：最后，可怜的国王什么也没吃。

根据前文描述所有他触摸到的东西都变成了
试题第14页，总20页
金子，包括吃的面包，肉也变成了金子，所以他什么都没吃到，所以用nothing ,故选F 。

35．句意：他拥抱了她，小女孩立刻变成了一尊金像（雕刻）。

此句句子结构是完整的，所以需要副词，结合句意，表示“立刻，马上”，故选E 。

36．句意：“仙女，”他喊道，“把这个可怕的礼物拿走！把我的小姑娘还给我！” 修饰名词gift,所以需要形容词，根据语境，仙女给他的这个礼物竟然把女儿也变成了金子，所以是可怕的，故选B 。

37．句意：用泉水洒下你接触过的东西。

根据句意，这里表示“用”，且需要介词短语作方式状语，所以用with, 故选C 。

38．句意：国王冲向春天。

在主语后，所以需要填动词，仙女给他说了方法之后，他很迫切地想把女儿变回来，所以是“冲向”泉水，故选F 。

39．句意：他拿着一瓶水跑回来，把水洒在女儿的头上。

结合后文the little girl came to life.所以是洒在他女儿的头上，所以是his daughter’s head 。

故选D 。

【点睛】
本文属于故事类，比较易于理解，首先浏览短文，了解文章大意。

填空时要结合句意及前后文语境，还要学会分析句子结构，判断所需要填的词性，这样可以缩小选词的范围。

例如第2小题，在will 的后面，那么一定会是动词或动词短语，再结合句意，表示梦想实现，故填come true 。

六、用所给单词的正确形式填空
用括号内所给单词的适当形式填空，每空格限填一词。

40．I felt _____________ lying in the sun on the beach. (relax)

40．句意：躺在沙滩上晒太阳，我感到很放松。

relax 动词放松，felt 是感官动词，所以后跟形容词作表语，且这里修饰“人”，表示感到放松的，故填relaxed 。

41．句意：小男孩说：“我已经长大了，可以好好照顾自己了。

这里主语是I, 所以表示“我自己” take care of oneself 照看某人自己，故填myself 。

42．句意：我们队输了比赛，因为我们打得很差。

修饰动词play 所以用副词，故填badly 。

43．句意：在美国，95%的宠物主人认为他们的宠物是家庭成员。

family member 家庭成员，且前面是animals,所以这里也用名词复数，故填members 。

44．句意：来自北京大学的登山队于2020年5月15日到达世界最高山峰珠穆朗玛峰。

前有比较范围the world’s 世界上的，所以是最高级，表示“最高的山”，故填highest 。

45．句意：世界各地的科学家正致力于发现一种治疗艾滋病的药物。

cover 意思是覆盖，根据句意可知，科学家“发现了”一种药物，故填discover 。

46．句意：你有没有在书页的边缘割过手指？你手指上的小伤口很痛。

pain 名词疼痛，根据句子结构，是主系表结构，所以用形容词，表示疼痛的，故填painful 。

47．句意：全世界大约有6000种语言在使用，但其中43%的语言正在逐渐消失。

如果不采取任何措施，其中一些语言将消失。

采取措施take actions, 谓语动词是is ，所以用单数，故填action 。

七、语法填空
根据短文内容，用括号内所给动词的适当形式填空，必要时可加助动词或情态动词。

A bus ran off a bridge into the Yangtze River in Chongqing on October 28, 2018. The

48．句意：事故是由司机和一名乘客打架造成的，车上15人全部丧生。

cause 意思是导
致，主语是the accident, 所以事故“被”导致，故用被动语态，且这是过去发生的事情，故填was caused 。

49．句意：刘很生气，因为她错过车站后，冉拒绝停车。

refuse to do sth 拒绝做某事，故填to stop 。

50．句意：视频显示，刘在开车的时候用手机打了两次冉。

while 表示当…时候，引导时间状语从句；根据句意，表示“当冉正在开车时”，且动作发生在过去，所以用过去进行时，故填was driving 。

八、回答问题
根据短文内容，回答下列问题。

The population of the world continues to increase, but in some areas the population is falling.
This is true in Europe and especially in Eastern Europe. In Russia, the population is going down by about 100 people EVERY HOUR! Russia's population could fall by ONE THIRD by the year 2050! And in Poland (波兰) the population is also going down because people are leaving to work in other countries.
One of the main reasons is a change of lifestyle. All over Europe people, especially educated women, have a different attitude(态度) to children than their parents. "I have one child and she is enough for me," said Galina Tereschkova, a doctor from Moscow. "My husband and I both work full-time. We can't imagine having more than one child." Many women decide to have children later in life or not to have children at all. "I don't want to have any children until I have worked for at least 10 years," said 19-year-old student Hana Markova。
