It has always been thought that when it comes to tornadoes, the most peaceful place is the centre: the eye of the storm. But a photo taken this week in the small Canadian town of Three Hills, Alberta, suggests that there is perhaps no place more peaceful than inside the calm mind of Theunis Wessels.
It all started when Mr Wessels’ wife, Cecilia, was warned by their nine-year-old daughter that he was cutting grass in their yard when a violent tornado appeared in the distance. When her husband refused to come inside, saying it was moving away from them, Mrs Wessels took a photo to show her parents the storm. The photo, which has been shared widely on social media, is a masterclass in calmness.
In it, the sockless Mr Wessels, dressed casually in summer shorts and sunglasses, is seen never being upset by the disastrous column of cloud. “I took the picture just to show my mum and dad in South Africa, ‘Look, there’s a tornado,’ and now everyone is like, Why is your husband cutting the grass?” Cecilia told the Times Colonist.
When ask ed later about the tornado’s approach to him, Mr Wessels responded, “I was keeping an eye on it,” seeming as cool as his gardening style and attracting more than a little respect. “Alberta, Canada,” wrote one admiring Twitter user, “where men face the elem ents and do what needs to be done.” A writer for Esquire magazine struck a pensive note: “I can understand Theunis,” Peter Wade admitted, “sometimes when the world is raging outside, the only thing you can do is keep your small area of it.”
24. How is Paragraph one developed?
A. By listing theories.
B. By giving examples.
C. By analyzing causes.
D. By making comparisons.
25. Why did Cecilia take the photo?
A. To post it on social media.
B. To record her husband’s heroic act.
C. To inform her parents of the tornado.
D. To prove what is the most peaceful place.
26. Which may make Mr. Wessels respected?
A. His way of gardening.
B. His calmness in the face of a tornado.
C. His bravery in fighting the tornado.
D. His rich knowledge about tornado.
27. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. A man ignored a tornado in Canada.
B. There are some features of tornado in Canada.
C. A man survived surprisingly from a tornado.
D. A picture caused heated discussions.
【答案】24-27 DCBA
【语篇解读】这是一篇新闻报道。

主要说明了一张加拿大男子Theunis Wessels平静注视龙卷风的照片在社交媒体上广为流传，堪称“冷静”的大师之作。

文章主要解释了这张照片背后的事情经过，以及Wessels先生本人对此的看法。

24. D 推理判断题。

根据第一段“It has always been thought that when it comes to tornadoes, the most peaceful place is the centre: the eye of the storm. But a photo taken this week in the small Canadian town of Three Hills, Alberta, suggests that there is perhaps no place more peaceful than inside the calm mind of Theunis Wessels.”可知人们一直认为，当遇到龙卷风时，最平静的地方是中心：风暴眼。

但本周在加拿大阿尔伯塔省三山镇拍摄的一张照片表明，也许没有什么地方比在Theunis Wessels平静的内心更平静了。

由此可推知，第一段是通过比较展开的。

故选D。

25. C 细节理解题。

根据第二段中“It all started when Mr Wessels’ wife, Cecilia, was warned by their nine-year-old daughter that he was cutting grass in their yard when a violent tornado appeared in the distance. When her husband refused to come inside, saying it was moving away from them, Mrs Wessels took a photo to show her parents the storm. ”可知这一切都始于当时Wessels先生的妻子Cecilia，被9岁的女儿警告说爸爸他在院子里割草时，远处出现了猛烈的龙卷风。

当她的丈夫拒绝进屋，说它正在远离他们时，Wessels夫人拍了一张照片给父母看风暴。

由此可知，Cecilia拍这张照片是为了通知她的父母有龙卷风。

故选C。

26. B 细节理解题。

根据最后一段中“When asked later about the tornado’s approach to him, Mr Wessels responded, ‘I was keeping an eye on it,’ seeming as cool as his gardening style and attracting more than a little respect.”可知当被问及龙卷风将靠近他时的感受时，Wessels先生回答说：“我一直在关注着它。

”他看上去就像他的园艺风格一样冷静，让人肃然起敬。

由此可知，B选项“面对龙卷风，他表现得镇定自若” 可能会让Wessels先生受到尊重。

故选B。

27. A 主旨大意题。

根据第一段中“But a photo taken this week in the small Canadian town of Three Hills, Alberta, suggests that there is perhaps no place more peaceful than inside the calm mind of Theunis Wessels.”可知但本周在加拿大阿尔伯塔省三山镇拍摄的一张照片表明，也许没有什
么地方比在Theunis Wessels平静的内心更平静了。

结合文章主要说明了一张加拿大男子Theunis Wessels平静注视龙卷风的照片在社交媒体上广为流传，堪称“冷静”的大师之作。

解释了这张照片背后的事情经过，以及Wessels先生本人对此的看法。

由此可知，这篇文章的主旨是一名男子无视加拿大的龙卷风。

故选A。

C
For many white-collar workers around the world, the recent pandemic has meant having to work from home. Their usual office location has been out of bounds . This means different working practices, which have advantages and disadvantages for employees. But the big question is, “Will they ever see their offices again?”
Home working has made people realize what tasks they can perform at home, rather than enduring a commute to the office to do the same thing. It has given them more time with the family; they’ve been sleeping better and have saved money by not travelling or buying l unches on the go . And recent research suggests the majority of people working from home are just as productive.
For some people, this could be a permanent arrangement. In the UK, fifty of the biggest employers questioned by BBC, have said they have no plans to return all staff to the office full-time in the near future. Of course, one main reason is that firms couldn’t see a way of accommodating large numbers of staff while social distancing regulations were still in place. But BBC also heard from some smaller businesses who are deciding to abandon their offices altogether. Other bigger companies are also looking at shutting offices to save money as many jobs can be performed remotely. Peter Cheese, head of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development, told BBC: “We’re at a moment of real change in the world of work, driven by big existential crises. ”
But this isn’t great news for everyone. Some employees can feel isolated at home, and there’s less opportunity to network or learn from other people, especially if they’re a new recruit . Also, city centers may suffer most from a change in working habits. Shops and cafes rely on the footfall of office workers, and without them, they face closure. The future is still uncertain, which is why tt may be too early to say where our desks will be permanently located. But the office of the future may be your home.
28. What does the underlined phrase “a commute to the office” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. The journey to and back from the office.
B. The distance between the office partners.
C. A communication from the office.
D. A call at the office.
29. According to the text, which is NOT the benefit of working from home?
A. More time to accompany the family.
B. Less money on lunches on the go .
C. A better sleep.
D. Higher efficiency.
30. What can we infer from paragraph 3?
A. Half employers will tire their staff.
B. Large numbers of staff will leave office.
C. Some employees won’t see their offices again.
D. Firms couldn’t deal with social distancing regulations.
31. What could be the best title for this text?
A. Does Working From Home Benefit a Lot?
B. Will Offices Disappear in the Future?
C. The Usual Office Location Has Been out of Bounds
D. Different Working Practices Have Advantages and Disadvantages
【答案】28. A 29. D 30. C 31. B
【解析】这是一篇议论文。

在各国经历新冠肺炎疫情期间，有许多人都居家办公。

雇主和雇员们都意识到，也许未来人们不再需要办公室。

本文讨论办公室的终结是否会来到，以及这为什么对于人们来说是几家欢喜几家愁。

【28题详解】
短语猜测题。

根据下文“It has given them more time with the family; they’ve been sleeping better and have saved money by not travelling o r buying lunches on the go .”（这让他们有更多的时间和家人在一起；他们睡得更好了，而且不用出门旅行或在路上买午餐来省钱。

）可推断，在家工作使人们意识到他们可以在家里完成任务而不必忍受往返办公室的通勤就能做同样的事情。

故a commute to the office是指“往返于办公室的旅程”。

故选A。

【29题详解】
推理判断题。

根据第二段倒第二句“It has given them more time with the family; they’ve been
sleeping better and have saved money by not travelling or buying lunches on the go .”（这让他们有更多的时间和家人在一起；他们睡得更好了，而且不用出门旅行或在路上买午餐来省钱。

）可知，选项A、B、C都是在家工作的好处。

根据第二段最后一句“And recent research suggests the majority of people working from home are just as productive.”（最近的研究表明，大多数在家工作的人也同样高效。

）可知，文章是指在家工作和在办公室工作一样高效，而不是更加高效。

故选D。

【30题详解】
推理判断题。

根据第三段第一句“For some people, this could be a permanent arrangement. ”（对一些人来说，这可能是一种永久的安排。

）可知，this是指上文提到的“working from home”，结合下文“In the UK, fifty of the biggest employers questioned by BBC, have said they have no plans to return all staff to the office full-time in the near future. ”（在英国，英国广播公司调查的50家最大的雇主表示，他们近期没有计划让所有员工全职回到办公室工作。

）以及“But BBC also heard from some smaller businesses who are deciding to abandon their offices altogether. Other bigger companies are also looking at shutting offices to save money as many jobs can be performed remotely.(但BBC也听到一些较小的企业决定完全放弃他们的办公室。

其他更大的公司也在考虑关闭办公室，以节省资金，因为许多工作都可以远程完成。

) ”可推断，有些员工再也见不到自己的办公室了。

故选C。

【31题详解】
主旨大意题。

第一段最后一句But the big question is, “Will they ever see their offices again?”（但最大的问题是，“他们还能再见到自己的办公室吗?”）提出了文章的论点“员工是否还会回办公室办公”，下文进行了讨论，在最后一段最后两句“The future is still uncertain, which is why it may be too early to say where our desks will be permanently located. But the office of the future may be your home.”（未来仍不确定，这就是为什么现在说我们的办公桌将永久放在哪里可能还为时过早。

未来的办公室可能是你的家。

），可推断，作者认为办公室是否会消失尚不能定论。

所以选项B（办公室会在未来消失吗?）是最好的标题。

故选B。

D
Can you imagine a world without music? Studies show that public schools across the country are cutting back on music classes to save money. Worse, some schools have never had music classes to begin with. But without them, students' academic growth and emotional health could suffer. In
fact, music classes are necessary for all students in schools.
Recent studies by Brown University have shown that students who received music education classes were better in math and reading skills than those without music classes. Another study by The College Board found that students taking music and art classes got higher points. Students' academic success seems to depend on their taking part in music education.
Music programs in public schools also help to add to a student's sense of pride and self－confidence. Teens today have too many learning tasks. Besides, they have family problems, self－confidence problems, relationship troubles, and choices about drugs and alcohol. All of these can stop academic success, but music education can help. A study by The Texas Commission on Drug and Alcohol Abuse found that students who took part in school music programs were less likely to turn to drugs. Music programs encourage students to work together to produce an excellent performance.
Music crosses language, class, cultural and political boundaries (界限). Music allows students from different countries to connect. For example, at a school talent show, a new Japanese student played a piano duet (二重奏) with an American classmate. Although they could not communicate verbally (口头上), they were able to read the music in order to play the duet. Two students from different cultures worked as a team with self－confidence and common purpose through music.
The gift of music is priceless. We need to be sure to have necessary music classes for all students. The world is losing its music, and putting music into schools is the first step to get it back.
32. Education with music classes could ________.
A. waste a lot more money from parents
B. help students improve their school work
C. lead to a lot of emotional problems easily
D. have a bad influence on the quality of education
33. The two studies seem to show that ________.
A. students with great success attended music lessons
B. not all students took part in music lessons
C. music plays an important role in students' success
D. students having music classes are better in all lessons
34. The example in Paragraph 4 mainly suggests that ________.
A. Japan has a good international relationship with America
B. different cultures have different styles of music
C. music makes cross－border communication possible
D. Japanese and American students are good at playing the piano
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Music—a bridge to understanding
B. How to get music back
C. The importance of listening to music
D. Music education in schools
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. C 35. D
【解析】这是一篇说明文。

主要介绍了音乐课对学校里所有的学生的重要性。

【32题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第二段Recent studies by Brown University have shown that students who received music education classes were better in math and reading skills than those without music classes.可知，布朗大学最近的研究表明，接受过音乐教育的学生在数学和阅读能力上比没有上过音乐课程的学生要好。

由此可知，音乐课可以帮助学生提高他们的学习成绩。

故选B。

【33题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第二段整体内容尤其是最后一句“Students' academic success seems to depend on their taking part in music education.”可知，音乐在学生的成功中扮演着重要的角色。

故选C。

【34题详解】
细节理解题。

根据第四段第一句“Music crosses language, class, cultural and political boundaries (界限)．”可知，音乐能够跨越语言、阶级、文化和政治界限，使人们做到无国界沟通交流。

故选C。

【35题详解】
主旨大意题。

根据第一段最后一句“In fact, music classes are necessary for all students in schools.”事实上，音乐课对学校里的所有学生都是必要的。

和最后一段最后一句“The world is losing its music, and putting music into schools is the first step to get it back.”这个世界正在失去它的音乐，把音乐引入学校是找回它的第一步。

所以短文的最佳标题为“学校中的音乐教育”。

故选D。

选项中有两项为多余选项。

If you've been feeling a lot sleepy in your daily life, here are some tips to picking up your energy levels. But first, you should make sure if you're experiencing some serious illnesses. ___36___, keep these tips in mind.
The first recommendation is to exercise. Although it may seem difficult to work out when you're tired, it turns out that physical activity can actually give you more energy.

Thus, another useful tip is to take a nap during the afternoon. Naps can restore your mind and body without taking up too much time, regaining your energy and raising working efficiency. The best length of time for a nap is about 20 minutes. Shorter, and you won't get much out of it. __38___ .
___39___. Drinking plenty of water and fluids throughout the day is one important way to stay energized, since dehydration (脱水)leaves us in low sprits. Some experts say that eating smaller meals more often throughout the day can help maintain energy and balance blood sugar levels. Be aware also that people who are overweight are more likely to experience tiredness easily. ___40___ , reducing extra weight could help you gain more energy.
A. If you're overweight
B. If you feel uncomfortable
C. As you know, it is quite a good habit
D. However, this goal is hard to achieve in practice
E. longer, and you may find it harder to sleep at night
F. If you're otherwise healthy but just need some extra energy
G. Other ways to increase energy involve our diet and consumption
【答案】36. F 37. D 38. E 39. G 40. A

阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

When faced with tough difficulties or troubles, people always give us positive words. 41 can lift our spirits indeed, but sometimes in some case it 42 depresses us. Psychology calls it
“toxic positivity.” What is it? Let’s see the following 43 .
Between sleepless nights, diapers (换尿布) and feeding times, having small children at home could leave Priscilla Goins feeling 44 . She loved her kids, but it was a lot. “I would sometimes say ‘I just want a minute to myself,’” Goins, of Knoxville, Tennessee, said. “People would be like: Oh, you’ll miss it when they’re 45 or you should value it.” That made her so mad. She doesn’t 46 what people say. She disagreed at all. Actually, in those moments, she simply wanted 47 that she was going through the tiredness 48 .
A focus on positive thinking, while putting challenging and 49 experiences to the side, is what some experts call “toxic positivity.” Being cheerful is not a bad thing. Certainly, a 50 attitude can be a gift to those around you, but it shouldn’t 51 listening thoughtfully to others’ experiences. When you are choosing to look at 52 from one angle-in this case a positive angle-you are very likely to dismiss or deny an authentic 53 . That’s toxic positivity, which is what Goins 54 when she was looking for a bit of mercy about the 55 of parenting young children. Even if you’re trying to 56 someone, ignoring someone’s tough experiences can leave them feeling that they should 57 negative feelings in the future.
58 trying to find a positive spin, we are supposed to use accepting and comprehensive words. Sometimes we just need to say “Yeah, me too,” or “That makes total sense.” It’s allowing someone to express something that is 59 , even if it’s hard to hear or it’s 60 .
