【解析】本文主要讲述了作者在参加马拉松前的一个月膝盖受伤了，训练时间不足，且在上学时就被体育老师认为没有运动天赋，但三十多岁的作者仍然坚持跑完自己的第一次马拉松，成功突破了自我，摆脱了世俗的标签。

16．句意：在第一次参加马拉松比赛的一个月前，我的一个膝盖受伤了，这意味着两周不能跑，只剩下两周的训练时间。

days天；hours小时；weeks周；minutes分钟。结合语境和常识可知比赛前一个月受伤了，一个月通常四周多，需要休息两周，所以训练时间就剩两周。故选C。

17．句意：我两样都没有做好。

I我；He他；We我们；They他们。结合语境和下一句“‘You are just not athletic, young man,’ he said to me, in front of all the others.”可知由于作者两项运动都没有做好，所以教练认为作者没有运动天赋，因此这里用“我”的主格。故选A。

18．句意：这么多年来，我一直未能摆脱“我不是运动健将”的标签及其强烈的羞耻感。

pride骄傲；shame羞愧；humor幽默；victory胜利。结合语境和最后一段第一句中“Determined to be myself, shake off shame…”可知教练认为作者没有运动天赋，作者一直觉得很丢脸，所以这里应用一个含有贬义情绪的词。故选B。

19．句意：直到30多岁开始跑步，我才意识到跑步与竞争无关，也与我是否擅长运动无关。

run跑步；ride骑；kick踢；work工作。结合语境和空后“I realized running was not about competition or if I was athletic”可知作者在自己开始跑步之后，才对跑步有了新的认识。故选A。

20．句意：这是对意志的考验！

wills意志；truth真理；energy精力；feelings感受。结合语境和前一句“It was all about the battle against my own body and mind.”以及下文作者参加马拉松的经历可知，跑步是与自己身体和精神的较量，作者凭借自己的意志力跑完全程。故选A。

21．句意：我醒来时很紧张，但准备向自己展示一些东西。

nothing没事；anything任何东西；something一些东西；everything每件事。结合语境和最后一段第一句“Determined to be myself…move forward.”可知通过这次马拉松，作者决定突破自我、勇往直前，所以准备向自己展示一些东西。故选C。

22．句意：越过起跑线后不久，我的鞋带松了，所以我不得不停下来处理。

or或者；so所以；but但是；because因为。结合语境和常识可知跑步时，鞋带松了得及时调整，以免影响后面的进程，所以空前是原因，空后是结果，这里用连词so。故选B。

23．句意：这不是我想要的开始，但我绝不会放弃这个机会。

put up张贴；look up仰望；take up占据；give up放弃。结合语境和下文“I was one of the final runners, but I…! And I got a medal.”可知作者并没有因为不利条件放弃比赛，坚持跑完全程。故选D。

24．句意：没有休息，我继续赛跑。

By通过；In在……之内；For为了；Without没有。结合语境和上下文“By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once wounded knee hurt badly.”以及“…I continued the race. I walked…a bit and then ran again.”可知作者虽然当时气喘吁吁，伤处疼痛，走一会儿再跑一会，但是作者都坚持没有停下来休息。故选D。

25．句意：我慢慢地走了一会儿，然后又跑了起来。

slowly缓慢地；simply简直；properly恰当地；naturally自然地。结合语境和上下文“By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once wounded knee hurt badly.”以及“By mile 21, I was so tired…”可知作者当时气喘吁吁，伤处疼痛，所以只能慢慢地走一会儿再跑，以此调节便于跑完全程。故选A。

26．句意：到21英里时，我又累又饿，甚至能吃下一匹马！

mad疯的；hungry饿的；unhappy不开心的；surprised感到惊讶的。结合语境和空后“I could even eat a horse”可知作者当时很饿。故选B。

27．句意：我鼓励自己。

replied回复；controlled控制；encouraged鼓励；influenced影响。结合语境和前一句“I can do it!”可知，作者鼓励自己能做到。故选C。

28．句意：我是最后的选手之一，但我完成了！

failed失败；escaped逃跑；remained保持；finished完成。结合全文语境和空前“but”可知作者虽然没有名列前茅，但是坚持跑完全程。故选D。

29．句意：我下定决心做我自己，摆脱羞耻和别人给我贴上的任何标签，勇往直前。

however不管怎样；whenever无论何时；whatever无论什么；wherever无论哪里。结合语境和空后“labeled”可知作者参加此次马拉松，是为了证明无论别人贴什么标签，自己都能够摆脱，本句用“label sb sth把……称为……”的结构，这里缺宾语，所以用whatever。故选C。

30．句意：我现在可以称自己为“马拉松赢家”。

runner跑步者；winner获胜者；pioneer先驱者；volunteer志愿者。结合全文以及和上文“I was one of the final runners, but I finished!...Determined to be myself, shake off shame and whatever others labeled me, move forward.”可知虽然作者没有获得名次，但通过这次马拉松突破了自我，摆脱了世俗的标签，作者觉得自己就是获胜者。故选B。

Devon Tyrie, 18, from the US, has been accepted by Middlebury College in Vermont. She has to make a decision：if she goes straight to college, her first year may be far from the traditional experience—if she takes a gap (间隔) year, her activities will probably be limited (限制).

Taking a gap year between high school and university is common in many parts of Europe, Australia, and the UK. In the US, people didn’t pay much attention to the idea until Barack Obama’s daughter took a gap year before going to Harvard University. Some people pointed out that the gap year was often for the rich. However, it is becoming popular among common people now.

In a recent study, it was found that one in five university applicants (申请人) in the UK had changed their mind about university attendance—whether their favorite university being changed or choosing a place to take a gap year. In the US a study found that 17% of students had changed their college plans because of COVID-19. Of those students, 16% said they would like to take a gap year, while 17% said they would like to wait until the spring semester (which will start in January 2021) to attend university. And one third said they would enter university on a part-time way.

It’s far from being an easy decision. “The good news is there is no wrong decision. The bad news is there is no right decision either,” says Michelle Dittmer, president and co-founder of the Canadian Gap Year Association.

( )38．How does the writer lead into the topic?

A．By giving an example.B．By comparing with others.

C．By showing some numbers.D．By carrying out a study.

( )39．What do we know about taking a gap year in the second paragraph?

A．European students don’t like it.

B．People spend too much money on it.

C．Obama ordered his daughter to take a gap year.

D．It was not very popular in the US in the beginning.

( )40．If 10,000 students took part in the study in the US, how many of them would like to enter college in January 2021?

A．1,700B．1,600.C．About 500.D．Nearly 300.

( )41．What can be the best title for the passage?

A．The importance of making a decision.B．The popularity of taking a gap year.

C．A good decision or a bad one.D．To take a gap year or not?

【答案】

38．A 39．D 40．A 41．D

【解析】本文主要介绍了学生对于隔年进入大学这个观点的转变。在欧洲、澳大利亚和英国的很多地方，高中和大学之间的间隔年是很常见的。

38．推理判断题。根据第一段的内容可知，作者是通过引入Devon这个例子来进入本文的主题，故选A。

39．推理判断题。根据“However, it is becoming popular among common people now”可知，隔年进入大学之前并不受欢迎，故选D。

40．细节理解题。根据“while 17% said they would like to wait until the spring semester (which will start in January 2021) to attend university”可知，17%的学生想等到2021年1月开始的春季学期再上大学，10000×17%=1700，故选A。

41．最佳标题。通读全文可知，本文围绕“是否隔年上大学”这一观点展开描述，故选D。

D

Phoebe Snetsinger had just returned from a trip to Alaska when her doctors told her that she had cancer. She had less than a year to live. Phoebe was 50. As soon as she heard the news, she decided to spend the rest of her life doing what she loved most-watching birds.

She immediately went off to some of the world’s most amazing natural paradises (乐园). Her trips were very hard. But Phoebe surprised her doctors and her family as she carried on travelling. A year came and went, and she was still alive. She was doing something that she loved and that helped her to be healthy for another ten years.

The cancer came back, but even then Phoebe Snetsinger decided not to stop. As she continued with her trips, the cancer went away again. By now she was becoming internationally famous in the birdwatching world. At the age of 61, when she had seen 7,530 species, she was named “the world’s leadingbird spotter” by the Guinness Book of Records.

Four years later, during a trip to Mexico, she set a new record when she spotted species number 8,000：the very rare Rufous-necked Wood Rail (棕颈林秧鸡). Snetsinger had become a legend. Nobody had spotted so many different bird species before. In fact, at that time only 12 people around the world had seen more than 7,000 species of birds!

Phoebe’s interest in birdwatching started in Minneapolis. Then she moved to Missouri with her family. There, she joined a group of people who were interested in birds, insects and plants around the Mississippi River. She became very worried about pollution and its impact (影响) on the environment. “We have to protect nature,” she said. “If we don’t, future generations won’t be able to enjoy watching these beautiful birds.”

Sadly, when Phoebe was 68, she died in a car accident on the island of Madagascar off the East African coast. She was there enjoying the hobby that had probably saved her life. She had been there for two weeks, and had added another five to her list of over 8,400 species. Four years after she died, the American Birding Association published her memoirs (自传), Birding on Borrowed Time. Many people have enjoyed reading this moving book. It isn’t just a story about a bird spotter’s travels, but a touching human document of how her hobby helped her to live much longer than expected.

( )42．How long did Phoebe live after the doctor told her she had cancer?

A．11 years.B．12 years.C．15 years.D．18 years.

( )43．Which is the right order of the events in Phoebe Snetsinger’s life?

a. Her book was published.

b. She died in a car accident.

c. She was told she had cancer.

d. She watched over 8,400 species of birds.

A．c-d-a-bB．c-d-b-aC．d-c-b-aD．d-c-a-b

( )44．The underlined phrase “bird spotter” in paragraph 3 means “________”.

A．a person who loves birdsB．a person who keeps birds

C．a person who watches birdsD．a person who protects birds

( )45．What can we learn from the story?

A．We should always follow the doctor’s advice.

B．A hobby can sometimes be very good for our health.

C．It’s very important to take the right medicine when we are ill.

D．Eating healthy food and doing exercise can help us live longer.

【答案】

42．D 43．B 44．C 45．B

【解析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一个观鸟者得癌症后仍活了18年的故事来告诉我们，爱好有时对我们的健康很有好处。

42．推理判断题。根据文章第一段中的“Phoebe was 50. As soon as she heard the news”和最后一段中的“Sadly, when Phoebe was 68, she died in a car accident on the island of Madagascar off the East African coast”可推知，在Phoebe得知自己得了癌症后，还活了18年，故选D。

43．细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“As soon as she heard the news, she decided to spend the rest of her life doing what she loved most-watching birds”可知，她先知道自己得了癌症，然后去花了大量时间来观鸟的，即c；最后一段“She had been there for two weeks, and had added another five to her list of over 8,400 species”可知，她观察了8400多种鸟类，即d；最后一段中的“when Phoebe was 68, she died in a car accident on the island of Madagascar off the East African coast”可知，她死于车祸，即b；最后一段中的“Four years after she died, the American Birding Association published her memoirs”可知，她的书被出版了，即a，所以顺序是c-d-b-a，故选B。

44．词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“At the age of 61, when she had seen 7,530 species, she was named "the world s leading bird spotter" by the Guinness Book of Records”“61岁那年，她已经观察了7530种鸟类，被《吉尼斯世界纪录大全》评为“世界顶尖的bird spotter”，所以推知bird spotter指的应该是“鸟类观察者”，故选C。

45．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“It isn’t just a story about a bird spotter’s travels, but a touching human document of how her hobby helped her to live much longer than expected”可知，这不仅仅是一个关于观鸟者旅行的故事，更是一个感人的人类文件，讲述了她的爱好是如何帮助她比预期活得更长，所以这个故事告诉我们：爱好有时对我们的健康很有好处，故选B。

【解析】这是一篇记叙文，文章讲述船上的敌对双方因为大风和大雨，抛弃仇恨，共同努力让船安全到达对岸的故事。

61．句意：船正要出发，这时船上的一些人看到了他们的敌人。“passenger”是名词，表示“乘客”。根据“some”可知是复数概念，用复数形式“passengers”。故填passengers。

65．句意：当船到达河流的中心，风吹得更大了，并且开始下很大的雨。“heavy”是形容词，表示“严重的，厉害的”。动词“rain”用副词修饰，用副词“heavily”。故填heavily。

66．句意：木船在波浪中被抛起来又落下去，看起来随时会颠倒过来。“throw”是动词，表示“扔，抛”。句子是一般过去时，主语“boat”是单数名词，主语和动词“throw”是被动关系，用动词的一般过去时的被动形式“was thrown”。故填was thrown。

六、阅读（本题有5小题，每小题1分，共计5分）

阅读下面材料，从方框中所给的A—E五个选项中选择正确的选项（其中一项是多余选项），将其序号填入71-74题，并回答75题。

Summer is here. One of the best ways to cool off on a hot summer day is to jump into a swimming pool. Swimming is great exercise, and a trip to a pool or beach is a good way to have fun with friends.__________71__________, so it’s important to stay safe as you do it. Here are a few things you can do to swim safely.

Swim only in areas set for swimming.

Don’t swim unless there is a lifeguard（救生员）on duty. If you’re on a beach near the ocean, this is especially important. In some places, fast currents（急流）can sweep swimmers away without warning. So if a sign says “no swimming”, please take care.

Be careful when diving（跳水）into the water headfirst.

Most pools have deep ends where diving is safe. In natural water, don’t dive unless you know that the water is deep enough.__________72__________, causing injury（伤害）or death.

Make sure you have a partner with you.

Nobody knows what will happen while you are swimming. If something goes wrong, you can get help from that person as soon as possible. In this situation,__________73__________.

Pay close attention to children’s safety.

Kids who don’t know how to swim should wear life jackets. But by themselves they are not enough,__________74__________. If you have a pool at home, put a fence（围栏）around it in case children fall in. And if a child disappears, check the pool first.

A．skilled kids may forget green hands

B．so an adult should always be present

C．But swimming can also be dangerous

D．a few seconds can make a big difference

E．Or you could hit your head on the bottom

75.Why do you have a partner with youwhile you are swimming?

__________________________________________________________________________________

【答案】

71．C 72．E 73．D 74．B

75．If something goes wrong, you can get help from that person as soon as possible.

【解析】夏季时游泳是一项很受欢迎的运动，但游泳的时候应注意安全。这篇短文中给我们介绍了一些在你游泳时需要注意的事情。

71．句意：但是游泳也有危险。

根据后面的句子“so it’s important to stay safe as you do it.”可知，游泳的时候安全是非常重要的。因此前一句说游泳也会有危险，故答案为C。

72．句意：否则你的头会撞到底部。

根据前面的句子“In natural water, don’t dive unless you know that the water is deep enough.”可知，在自然水域，在你不知道水深时不要潜水。此句是说如果这样做了会产生的后果，故答案为E。

73．句意：几秒钟的时间就会产生重大作用。

本段主要强调游泳时确保有一个搭档，遇到危险及时向搭档求救，在这种危险的时刻，几秒钟的时间也很重要，对生与死也会产生巨大的影响，故答案为D。

74．句意：所以成年人应该一直在现场。

根据前面的句子“Kids who don’t know how to swim should wear life jackets. But by themselves they are not enough,”不会游泳的孩子应该穿救生衣。但如果是他们自己游泳，救生衣是远远不够的，因此本句是强调在孩子学习游泳时，需要大人时刻在身边保护，故答案为B。

75．句意：为什么游泳时要找个搭档？根据题意可知If something goes wrong, you can get help from that person as soon as possible.
