第二节短文理解阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C三个选项中，选出最佳选项回答问题或完成句子。

（共10小题，计20分）
A
1 dollar and 87 cents. That was all for the family. The next day would be Christmas. The poor thin man was Della’s husband, Jim. Jim was very proud of two things. One was Jim’s gold watch from his grandfather. The other was Della’s hair. It almost made itself into a dress for her.
Della wanted to buy Jim a Christmas gift. The only thing she thought valuable(有价值的) was her hair. She sold it, without thinking twice, for 20 dollars. She was going from one shop to another to find a gift for Jim. She saw a gold watch chain(链条). It was so perfect for his watch! She paid for it unhesitatingly and hurried home with the chain and 87 cents.
At seven before the dinner, Jim stepped in and he was not smiling. He looked strangely at
Della and said slowly, “You… cut off your hair?” “Yes. I sold it for the gift so don’t be sad.” Della answered. “Oh, my dear, I also bought a gift for you,” Jim took out a paper bag from his coat. “If you open that, you may know how I feel when I came in.” White fingers opened the bag. And then a cry of joy. And then a change to tears. For there lay The Combs — the combs that Della had seen in a shop window and loved for a long time.
Della took out the gift for Jim. However, Jim smiled and said, “Let’s put our Christmas gifts away and keep them a while. They are too nice to use now. I will buy my watch back someday. I think we should have our dinner now.”
46. What does the underlined word “unhesitatingly” mean in the second paragraph?

B. 无精打采地

49. From the passage, we can infer(推测) that _______.

If you see someone fall onto the ground because of a heart problem, what will you do before doctors come? Chen Wenqiao set a good example when he was 14. He did CPR(心肺复苏) in his school and saved a man’s life in 2013. Chen showed that it was quite useful to know how to do CPR.
According to medical experts, there is a “golden period(黄金期)” — the first 4 minutes of a heart problem. During the time, CPR makes the biggest difference. Unluckily, only less than 1 percent of Chinese adults have known the skill of CPR, while many even have never heard of it. On August 24 of 2020, the Ministry of ERCSC made a joint guideline(联合指示) to ask all public schools to give first-aid(急救) courses, including(包括) CPR training.
CPR is not hard to learn. All that one needs to do is
how to watch and decide if a person is unconscious(失去知
觉的), where to press on the patient’s chest, and how to
blow air through the mouth and into the lungs(肺).
A 2017 study showed that 65 percent of Americans
had received CPR training. In Switzerland, all people are
asked to be trained in first aid, including CPR. In Germany, everyone must be trained before getting their driver’s license, which means about 80 percent of the country has received first-aid training. Forty percent of people in France are also trained in first aid.
51. About CPR, which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. It is very difficult to learn.
B. It is the most important first-aid.
C. It plays the biggest role during the first four minutes of a heart problem.
52. What should we do when we are doing the CPR?
①watch carefully ②blow air through the mouth and into the heart
③press on the chest④find out if the person is unconscious
A. ①②③
B. ①③④
C. ②③④
53. According to the passage, _______ countries are asking people to have the first-aid training,
including China.
A. 3
B. 4
C. 5
54. From the passage, we can NOT infer(推断) that _______.
A. Chen Wenqiao is 24 years old now
B. About eighty percent of Germans have got a driver’s license
C. More and more Chinese people have realized the importance of CPR
55. What’s the purpose(目的) of this passage?
A. To tell us the importance of doing CPR.
B. To show us the popularity(普及) of CPR.
C. To ask us to help people with a heart attack.

Nearly all the people want to be successful, but it’s always very hard to succeed. If you want to achieve success more easily, 56.__________________.
Plan for success
Wanting success is not enough. You need to have a plan. Only if have you set a detailed project, you will own a right direction and the power to go ahead. Ask yourself: How am I going to become successful? What do I have to learn to achieve the success I want? And how long will it take me to get it? These questions will help you plan for your success.
57.__________________
If you study the lives of successful people, you will find that they have excellent work habits. Edison, for example, had a good habit of thinking, and this helped him become one of the greatest inventors. Forming good habits can be boring, but success is built upon the great habits that you have.
Let failure motivate(激励) you
It’s OK to fail. Everyone has failed at one time or another. Michael Jordan, one of the most successful basketball players, used to say that his failures motivated him to succeed. 58. __________________. Learn from your failures and you will get closer to the success you want.
Never stop learning
Successful people never stop learning. They never say, “I have learned enough. There is nothing more for me to learn.” You have to understand that the moment you stop learning is the
第四节阅读表达阅读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容回答问题。

（共5小题，计10分）
Xuan Paper is one of the Four Treasures of Study. Chinese
Xuan Paper has a history over 1,000 years. It first appeared in the
Tang Dynasty. Its quality is so fine and soft that painters like to use
it all the time. It is well-known as “The King of Paper”. The
traditional skill of making the paper by hand has been passed down
by people. Even today, it is still widely used in painting.
It’s said that Jing County, Anhui, which was called Xuanzhou
in ancient times makes the best Chinese Xuan Paper. The materials
to make it are usually straw(稻草), bamboo qingtan(青檀) rice and so on. That is the reason why Xuan Paper is known for its pleasant smell of plants.
Since the Tang and Song Dynasties, people have found the paintings on Xuan Paper look livelier than on other kinds of paper. And no matter how many years have gone by, paintings are kept well.
However, making Xuan Paper is not an easy job. It can’t be made by machines but by hand. Besides, it needs 18 steps to make a perfect piece of Xuan Paper. So, it usually takes about one year before everything is completed. From the long hard work and perfect paper piece we can feel how great Chinese people are and how wonderful the nature is. In May, 2006 the skill of paper-making was listed as one of the first national intangible cultural heritages(非物质文化遗产) by Chinese government. And it was also listed as a world intangible cultural heritage by UNESCO in 2009.
60. Why do painters like to use Xuan Paper?
61. Where was the best Xuan Paper made in ancient times?
62. What can we use to make Xuan Paper?
63. Do people make Xuan Paper by using machines or by hand?
64. When was the skill of paper-making listed as an intangible cultural heritage in China?

第一节语篇翻译阅读下面的短文，将划线部分译成英文或中文。

（共5小题，计10分）New Year’s Day and Spring Festival are drawing near, which means gift-giving season is also coming. 65. 你想给别人买礼物吗?According to Chinese culture, there are some rules on gift giving that you should keep in mind.
66. Chinese people usually don’t give a clock to each other. A clock, pronounced as zhong in Chinese means “the end”. Therefore, giving someone a clock means “your time is up”. It could be considered unlucky, especially for elderly people.
67. 如果人们不能送时钟，也许他们可以买点水果。

But remember not to buy pears. A pear, pronounced as li in Chinese, sounds the same as the word meaning separation(分离). Umbrella also sounds the same as the word for separation in Chinese. 68. So, both pears and umbrellas are not good gifts for family members or friends. Of course, the timely act of giving someone an umbrella on a rainy day can be an exception.
Now giving gifts may sound risky. So, what is a safe gift? Cash is the answer! 69. A “red envelope” filled with money is the most popular gift in China. People give their friends red envelopes as a way to express their wishes. During the Chinese New Year, seniors will give children red envelopes to express their love.
Chinese people like to put amounts of money equal to certain “lucky numbers” inside red envelopes. For example, “520” means “I love you”, “1,314” means “eternal(水远的) love”. “666” means “hoping that everything goes well for you” and “888” means “wishing you wealth”.
