【原文】W: Now the last news of this hour. A female dolphin washed up on Florida’s Fort Myers Beach on Tuesday, according to local news station WFLA. Rescue workers had tried to save the young animal, but she was in such poor health that wildlife officials decided to kill her in a painless way. On Friday, photos of the dolphin’s stomach contents were posted on the Internet, showing she had eaten two plastic bags along with a piece of a balloon. While officials noted the stomach contents were an important finding. They said that it was as yet unclear what exactly caused the dolphin’s illness. Even so, the post said that the presence of the bags and balloon shows the need to reduce single-use plastic. Reports of sea animals found with plastic in their stomachs are becoming common. In March, 2019, a pregnant whale washed up dead off the coast of Italy with 49 pounds of plastic in her stomach. The same month, a beached whale found dead on the shores of the Philippines had 88 pounds of plastic in its stomach, including many plastic bags. Thank you for your listening.

My mother suffered COPD and heart failure, which made her have great difficulty breathing or catching her breath. For the last 5 years of her life, my most common memory was of her leaned over an outdoor trash can, trying to get enough air.
I was away getting my Master’s in Theatre Arts when she passed away. My mind was unhinged (精神错乱的). They pulled me off my desk and took me to the local mental health facility. I was just at tech week for the show Fefu and Her Friends. My office mate and fellow director Sarah Jane Hardy took over the production and saw it safely through.
But this is just the beginning of the kindness that surrounded me. She sat with me in my apartment when I returned and let me fall apart in a safe space. My dad traveled with me from Phoenix to Utah to see the final performance. My department chair allowed me to fold over my thesis (论文)and turn it into an MA researched thesis so I could return home at the end of the year having graduated. My roommates helped motivate me to go to classes.
This was one of the hardest chapters in my life and so many people came to help me to heal. I think before this time I would have prized intelligence or education as the highest trait (特点) in a person, but afterwards, I’ve felt that kindness defines people most. The world would be a cold place if we did not have friends who showed it openly in our times of need.

What will astronauts wear in more than 50 years A brand-new spacesuit is developing.
Called the Exploration Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EEMU), the spacesuit protects astronauts from the tough environment of the lunar surface, which is quite different from that astronauts have been exploring for the past few decades in low Earth orbit.
Progress on the suit has been overshadowed(使不快乐). “The EEMU represents the first new spacesuit that NASA has developed in over 40 years, George Nield, previously the associate administrator for commercial space transportation at the Federal Aviation Administration, said. “So far, it looks like things are pretty on schedule.”
Nield outlined the agency’s plan to build five EEMU suits in the initial (最初的)group. One for design tests is almost done and should be completed in December. A second will be built for qualification testing and a third will be tested in orbit on the International Space Station. The final two suits of the set will walk on the moon in 2024 on a mission called Artemis 3.
In addition to the main spacesuits, each astronaut will also require an internal cooling garment (衣服), and NASA has now completed the first prototype of that undergarment, according to Nield. And the agency also needs to upgrade the backpack—like Portable Life Support System that astronauts carry to stay alive.
Meanwhile, NASA got a sense of how the new suit will perform on the moon by testing the design underwater. Underwater, astronauts can get a feel for moving around in a spacesuit and using the tools they will operate during a spacewalk. Lately, NASA has been using the pool to study movements like collecting moon rock and dust, navigating a ladder and planting a flag in the lunar surface.
28. Why does the author ask a question at the beginning of the text
A. To make readers think.
B. To put forward the topic of the text.
C. To seek for some information.
D. To exchange opinions with readers.

A. Satisfied. B. Disappointed. C. Puzzled. D. Shocked.
30. What does the underlined word “prototype” mean in Paragraph 4
A. Sample. B. Copy. C. Test. D. Design.
31. How did scientists know the performance of the spacesuit on the moon
A. By testing it in the lab.
B. By learning from other scientists.
C. By testing it underwater.
D. By comparing it with other spacesuits.
【答案】28. B 29. B 30. A 31. C

【导语】本文是说明文。讲述了NASA正在研发的一款新的宇航服EEMU。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第一段的内容“A brand-new spacesuit is developing. Called the Exploration Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EEMU), the spacesuit protects astronauts from the tough environment of the lunar surface, which is quite different from that astronauts have been exploring for the past few decades in low Earth orbit. ”(一种全新的宇航服正在研制中。被称为探索舱外机动单元(EEMU)的宇航服可以保护宇航员免受月球表面恶劣环境的伤害,这与宇航员过去几十年在近地轨道探索的情况大不相同。)结合文章开头的问题“What will astronauts wear in more than 50 years (50多年后宇航员会穿什么 )”可土地,问题是为了引出话题——一款新的宇航服。故选B。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第二段“Progress on the suit has been overshadowed(使不快乐). “The EEMU represents the first new spacesuit that NASA has developed in over 40 years, George Nield, previously the associate administrator for commercial space transportation at the Federal Aviation Administration, said. “So far, it looks like things are pretty on schedule.””(宇航服的进展是扫兴的。前美国联邦航空管理局负责商业太空运输的副局长乔治·尼尔德说: “ EEMU是美国国家航空航天局40多年来开发的第一套新型太空服。到目前为止,一切似乎都在按计划进行。”)可知George Nield认为EEMU的进度似乎在按照计划进行,因此推断是不满意的。故选B。
【30题详解】
词义猜测题。由文章第三段“Nield outlined the agency’s plan to build five EEMU suits in the initial(最初的)group. One for design tests is almost done and should be completed in December. ”(Nield概述了该机构的计划是建立五个 EEMU。一个设计测试已经基本完成,应该在12月份完成。)可知最初会做出五套这款宇航服用于测试,结合第四段“... NASA has now completed the first prototype of that undergarment”(美国宇航局现在已经完成了内衣的第一个prototype)可推断,划线词是样品的意思。故选A。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。由文章最后一段“Meanwhile, NASA got a sense of how the new suit will perform on the moon by testing the design underwater. ”(与此同时,美国宇航局通过在水下测试新宇航服的设计,了解其在月球上性能如何。)可知科学家是在水下完成测试,从而得知这款宇航服的性能的。故选C。
D
Environmental conditions experienced by parent plants can influence offspring performance through parental effects induced(感应的) by DNA. The offspring can also be influenced by environmental conditions experienced by their parents via soil legacy(遗产) effects due to changes in the composition of soil.
We conducted a two-phase experiment with five genotypes(基因型) of a clonal plant. In the first phase, we grew parent plants of each genotype under two light conditions and two DNA treatments. We then collected soils and clonal offspring for each genotype from each of these four treatments and measured soil properties. In the second phase, we grew the offspring from each of the four treatments in the four different soils, under the two light conditions.
When grown under environmental light condition and in soil from environmental parents, offspring produced by environmental parents grew larger than offspring produced by shaded parents when the parents were treated with water. This difference was smaller when the parents were treated with 5-7°C, and disappeared when the offspring were grown in soil from shaded parents. The growth difference was also observed when the offspring were grown under shaded condition and in soil from shaded parents. However, this difference was greater when the parents were treated with 5-7°C, and disappeared when the offspring were grown in soil from environmental parents.
Our results show that light condition experienced by parents can influence offspring responses to light through both parental effects and soil legacies. The parental effects were mediated(调节) by changes in DNA and the soil legacies. These impacts may eventually influence the ecological and evolutionary track of clonal plant populations.
32. What is the text mainly about
A. Environmental conditions are important to offspring performance.
B. Offspring performance can be controlled by DNA and the soil legacies.
C. Environmental conditions experienced by parent plants can influence offspring.
D. Light condition experienced by parents can influence offspring responses to light.
33. How did the researchers get the result
A. They carried out a survey.
B. They conducted an experiment.
C. They analyzed existing data.
D. They collected information from others.
34. What can we learn from Paragraph 3
A. Growth difference only happens under environmental light condition.
B. Offspring of environmental parents grow smaller than offspring of shaded parents.
C. No growth difference appears when offspring are grown in soil from shaded parents.
D. Growth difference varies when parents are treated with 5-7°C under different conditions.
35. Where is the text most likely from
A. A diary. B. A magazine. C. A novel. D. A notebook.
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. D 35. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章介绍了植物后代会受到其父母所经历的环境条件的影响。
【32题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Environmental conditions experienced by parent plants can influence offspring performance through parental effects induced(感应的) by DNA. The offspring can also be influenced by environmental conditions experienced by their parents via soil legacy(遗产) effects due to changes in the composition of soil. (亲本植物所经历的环境条件可以通过DNA引起的亲本效应影响后代的表现。由于土壤成分的变化,后代也会受到父母所经历的环境条件的影响,通过土壤遗产效应。)”可知,文章主要介绍了植物后代会受到其父母所经历的环境条件的影响。故选C。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“We conducted a two-phase experiment with five genotypes(基因型) of a clonal plant. (我们对克隆植物的五种基因型进行了两阶段实验。)”可知,研究人员是通过做实验来得出结论的。故选B。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“When grown under environmental light condition and in soil from environmental parents, offspring produced by environmental parents grew larger than offspring produced by shaded parents when the parents were treated with water. This difference was smaller when the parents were treated with 5-7°C. The growth difference was also observed when the offspring were grown under shaded condition and in soil from shaded parents. However, this difference was greater when the parents were treated with5-7°C, (当在环境光照条件下和在环境亲本土壤中生长时,环境亲本的后代比遮荫亲本在水处理下生长的后代大。当父母接受5-7°C的治疗时,这种差异较小。当后代在遮荫条件下和遮荫父母的土壤中生长时,也观察到了生长差异。然而,当父母接受5-7°C的治疗时,这种差异更大)”可知,在不同条件下父母接受5-7°C的治疗导致子辈差距变化是不一样的。故选D。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Environmental conditions experienced by parent plants can influence offspring performance through parental effects induced(感应的) by DNA. The offspring can also be influenced by environmental conditions experienced by their parents via soil legacy(遗产) effects due to changes in the composition of soil. (亲本植物所经历的环境条件可以通过DNA引起的亲本效应影响后代的表现。由于土壤成分的变化,后代也会受到父母所经历的环境条件的影响,通过土壤遗产效应。)”可知,文章介绍了植物后代会受到其父母所经历的环境条件的影响,属于科普知识,最有可能出现在科普杂志上。故选B。

The Christmas I will never forget happened when I was 9. I believed in Santa with all my heart. How could I not when I received everything I wished for.
December 1st. Mom would announce, “It’s time.” Hearing those words, we all knew it was time to write our letters to Santa. One day I asked mom why we always wrote our letters on December 1st. She said because so many kids were writing letters to Santa, he needed time to read them and make all the toys the kids wanted. Once our letters were finished, mom would put them in her purse and mail them the next day.
Christmas Eve finally arrived. We were all so excited. We did our Christmas Eve traditions. Daddy read us The Night Before Christmas’ story. Then it was time for sleep. I had such a good feeling about Christmas this year. It was difficult to fall asleep. But sleep finally came and so did Christmas morning. I woke up hearing my brothers yelling. Jimmy came running and jumping on my bed. “Santa’s been here, sister! Let’s open presents!”
We ran down the stairs. Our eyes were glowing like wildfire as we eyed over the presents under the tree. My brothers and I quickly snuggled (依偎) among the packages. We all watched as each person unwrapped a gift. I kept watching as my brothers unwrapped gifts. My dad didn’t hand me any package. “This year you are going to be the last to get your presents because you are the oldest.” he declared. I didn’t think anything of it, so I whispered “OK.”
One by one all of the packages had been opened. There was none left. I couldn’t understand. I had been so good this year. Tears began sliding down my cheeks. I ran up to my room. My mom went up the stairs for me to come back down. Dad wanted to talk to me, Sobbing, I slowly made my way back.

Dad signed to me to follow him.

The memory of that Christmas stayed with me all these years.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Dad signed to me to follow him. As we neared the back door, I saw my mom holding a handsome black dog with deep brown eyes. I was frozen like an ice cube. Then I ran to my dad, jumped in his arms and kissed him. My mom approached us and wrapped her loving arms around us, joining in our happy tears of joy. I had never been so happy in all my 9 years as I was at that moment. The dog named Sam was my only gift that year. But I got the best gift.
The memory of that Christmas stayed with me all these years. My best friend Sam lived to the old age of 16. I never had children. I am old and weak now and losing my eyesight, but I still have such precious memories of past Christmas with my family. I sit in my rocker on cold winter nights during the holiday seasons and picture my childhood home with its charming Christmas tree, old chimney and letters written to Santa.

My mother suffered COPD and heart failure, which made her have great difficulty breathing or catching her breath. For the last 5 years of her life, my most common memory was of her leaned over an outdoor trash can, trying to get enough air.
I was away getting my Master’s in Theatre Arts when she passed away. My mind was unhinged (精神错乱的). They pulled me off my desk and took me to the local mental health facility. I was just at tech week for the show Fefu and Her Friends. My office mate and fellow director Sarah Jane Hardy took over the production and saw it safely through.
But this is just the beginning of the kindness that surrounded me. She sat with me in my apartment when I returned and let me fall apart in a safe space. My dad traveled with me from Phoenix to Utah to see the final performance. My department chair allowed me to fold over my thesis (论文)and turn it into an MA researched thesis so I could return home at the end of the year having graduated. My roommates helped motivate me to go to classes.
This was one of the hardest chapters in my life and so many people came to help me to heal. I think before this time I would have prized intelligence or education as the highest trait (特点) in a person, but afterwards, I’ve felt that kindness defines people most. The world would be a cold place if we did not have friends who showed it openly in our times of need.

What will astronauts wear in more than 50 years A brand-new spacesuit is developing.
Called the Exploration Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EEMU), the spacesuit protects astronauts from the tough environment of the lunar surface, which is quite different from that astronauts have been exploring for the past few decades in low Earth orbit.
Progress on the suit has been overshadowed(使不快乐). “The EEMU represents the first new spacesuit that NASA has developed in over 40 years, George Nield, previously the associate administrator for commercial space transportation at the Federal Aviation Administration, said. “So far, it looks like things are pretty on schedule.”
Nield outlined the agency’s plan to build five EEMU suits in the initial (最初的)group. One for design tests is almost done and should be completed in December. A second will be built for qualification testing and a third will be tested in orbit on the International Space Station. The final two suits of the set will walk on the moon in 2024 on a mission called Artemis 3.
In addition to the main spacesuits, each astronaut will also require an internal cooling garment (衣服), and NASA has now completed the first prototype of that undergarment, according to Nield. And the agency also needs to upgrade the backpack—like Portable Life Support System that astronauts carry to stay alive.
Meanwhile NASA got a sense of how the new suit will perform on the moon by testing the design underwater. Underwater, astronauts can get a feel for moving around in a spacesuit and using the tools they will operate during a spacewalk. Lately, NASA has been using the pool to study movements like collecting moon rock and dust, navigating a ladder and planting a flag in the lunar surface.
28. Why does the author ask a question at the beginning of the text
A. To make readers think.
B. To put forward the topic of the text.

A. By testing it in the lab.
B. By learning from other scientists.
C. By testing it underwater.
D. By comparing it with other spacesuits.
D
Environmental conditions experienced by parent plants can influence offspring performance through parental effects induced(感应的) by DNA. The offspring can also be influenced by environmental conditions experienced by their parents via soil legacy(遗产) effects due to changes in the composition of soil.
We conducted a two-phase experiment with five genotypes(基因型) of a clonal plant. In the first phase, we grew parent plants of each genotype under two light conditions and two DNA treatments. We then collected soils and clonal offspring for each genotype from each of these four treatments and measured soil properties. In the second phase, we grew the offspring from each of the four treatments in the four different soils, under the two light conditions.
When grown under environmental light condition and in soil from environmental parents, offspring produced by environmental parents grew larger than offspring produced by shaded parents when the parents were treated with water. This difference was smaller when the parents were treated with 5-7°C, and disappeared when the offspring were grown in soil from shaded parents. The growth difference was also observed when the offspring were grown under shaded condition and in soil from shaded parents. However, this difference was greater when the parents were treated with 5-7°C, and disappeared when the offspring were grown in soil from environmental parents.
Our results show that light condition experienced by parents can influence offspring responses to light through both parental effects and soil legacies. The parental effects were mediated(调节) by changes in DNA and the soil legacies. These impacts may eventually influence the ecological and evolutionary track of clonal plant populations.
32. What is the text mainly about
A. Environmental conditions are important to offspring performance.
B. Offspring performance can be controlled by DNA and the soil legacies.
C. Environmental conditions experienced by parent plants can influence offspring.
D. Light condition experienced by parents can influence offspring responses to light.
33. How did the researchers get the result
A. They carried out a survey.
B. They conducted an experiment.
C. They analyzed existing data.
D. They collected information from others.
34. What can we learn from Paragraph 3
A. Growth difference only happens under environmental light condition.
B. Offspring of environmental parents grow smaller than offspring of shaded parents.
C. No growth difference appears when offspring are grown in soil from shaded parents.
D. Growth difference varies when parents are treated with 5-7°C under different conditions.
35. Where is the text most likely from
A. A diary. B. A magazine. C. A novel. D. A notebook.

The Christmas I will never forget happened when I was 9. I believed in Santa with all my heart. How could I not when I received everything I wished for.
December 1st. Mom would announce, “It’s time.” Hearing those words, we all knew it was time to write our letters to Santa. One day I asked mom why we always wrote our letters on December 1st. She said because so many kids were writing letters to Santa, he needed time to read them and make all the toys the kids wanted. Once our letters were finished, mom would put them in her purse and mail them the next day.
Christmas Eve finally arrived. We were all so excited. We did our Christmas Eve traditions. Daddy read us The Night Before Christmas’ story. Then it was time for sleep. I had such a good feeling about Christmas this year. It was difficult to fall asleep. But sleep finally came and so did Christmas morning. I woke up hearing my brothers yelling. Jimmy came running and jumping on my bed. “Santa’s been here, sister! Let’s open presents!”
We ran down the stairs. Our eyes were glowing like wildfire as we eyed over the presents under the tree. My brothers and I quickly snuggled (依偎) among the packages. We all watched as each person unwrapped a gift. I kept watching as my brothers unwrapped gifts. My dad didn’t hand me any package. “This year you are going to be the last to get your presents because you are the oldest.” he declared. I didn’t think anything of it so I whispered “OK.”
One by one all of the packages had been opened. There was none left. I couldn’t understand. I had been so good this year. Tears began sliding down my cheeks. I ran up to my room. My mom went up the stairs for me to come back down. Dad wanted to talk to me, Sobbing, I slowly made my way back.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Dad signed to me to follow him.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The memory of that Christmas stayed with me all these years.
