87、理解题。根据第二段“the researchers see the possibility of using the data from your browsing, search, and purchase history to create a more accurate mechanism for determining the credit rating of an individual or business. They believe that this approach could result in greater lending to borrowers who would
88、potentially be denied by traditional financial institutions.(研究人员看到了利用你的浏览、搜索和购买历史数据来创建一个更准确的机制来确定个人或企业的信用评级的可能性。他们认为,这种做法可能导致向借款人发放更多贷款,而传统金融机构可能拒绝向借款人发放贷款)”可知,研究人员提出的方法是通过网络历史决定信用评级。故选C。【33题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中“The researchers identify two key areas in which this is true: Tech companies have greater ac
89、cess to soft-information, and messaging platforms can take the place of the physical locations that banks rely on for meeting with customers.(研究人员发现,在两个关键领域这一观点是正确的:科技公司拥有更多获取软信息的渠道,即时通讯平台可以取代银行与客户会面所依赖的实体地点)”以及第四段中“The concept of using your web history to inform credit ratings is framed around the
90、notion that lenders rely on hard-data that might hide the worthiness of a borrower or paint an unnecessarily bad picture during hard times. (利用你的网络历史记录来提供信用评级的概念,是围绕着这样一个概念:贷方依赖可能隐藏借款人价值或在困难时期描绘出不必要的糟糕图景的硬数据)”可知,他们提倡用新的方法来评定借款人的信用,是因为软数据比硬数据更能反映事实。故选D。【34题详解】词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段“Banks tend to cushion credi
91、t terms for their long-term customers during downturns, the papers authors write. This is because they have a history and relationship with the customer.(论文作者写道:“在经济低迷时期,银行倾向于为长期客户缓冲信贷条款。”这是因为他们有与客户的历史和关系)”以及画线词上文“Citing soft-data points like the type of browser and hardware used to access the inter

93、密的与潜在客户的关系的历史,他们可能更愿意不那么严格)可知,研究人员引用了软数据点,这些数据可以包括在评估贷款人时,研究人员认为,当借款人与潜在客户的历史关系更密切时,他们可能更愿意不那么严格,更加放松。故画线部分意思为“不那么严格”。故选A。【35题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“The researchers acknowledge that there will be privacy and policy concerns related to including this kind of soft-data in credit analysis. Getting the soft-da
94、ta points would probably require companies like Facebook and Apple to loosen up their standards on linking unencrypted information with individual accounts. How they might share information with other institutions would be its own can of worms.(研究人员承认,在信用分析中使用这类软数据会涉及隐私和政策问题。获得软数据点可能需要Facebook和苹果等公司
95、放宽将未加密信息与个人账户链接的标准。他们如何与其他机构共享信息将是他们自己的问题)”可推知,研究人员担心共享信息可能导致隐私问题。故选C。第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。People who love to spend time in their kitchen know that after having a rough day it helps them to relieve stress.

126、将有益于环保。【56题详解】考查名词。句意:由于缺乏足够的原材料,中国从1980年开始进口固体废物。不定冠词a后需接可数名词单数,short的名词为shortage“不足,缺乏”。故填shortage。【57题详解】考查过去分词。句意:进口废物的回收利用有助于填补这一空白。分析句子结构可知,空处需用非谓语动词作前置定语修饰名词waste,此处表示被进口的,所以空处需用过去分词imported作前置定语。故填imported。【58题详解】考查动名词。句意:垃圾经过处理后,可以转化成可以用来制作产品的材料,如椅子和袋子。介词after后需用动名词作宾语,此处表示被处理,所以空处需用动名词的被动语
127、态:being done。故填being processed。【59题详解】考查形容词的比较级。句意:然而,进口这些垃圾带来的风险大于好处。由空后 than benefits可知,空处需用many的比较级more,表示更多的风险。故填more。【60题详解】考查副词。句意:不能正确使用的废物要么被焚烧,要么被掩埋,而处理可回收的废物也会导致河流、空气和土地污染,以及各种疾病。空处需用副词作状语修饰动词used。故填properly。【61题详解】考查连词。句意同上。根据空前后句意可知,此处由对比之意,所以此处需用连词while“而,可是”。故填while。【62题详解】考查形容词。句意:不能正
128、确使用的废物要么被焚烧,要么被掩埋,而处理可回收的废物也会导致河流、空气和土地污染,以及各种疾病。空处需用形容词作定语修饰名词diseases,vary的形容词为various“各种各样的”。故填various。【63题详解】考查介词。句意:但从2021年1月1日起,中国将全面禁止所有固体废物的进口。make a ban on对发出禁令,固定搭配。故填on。【64题详解】考查定语从句。句意:据中国日报报道,将于2021年生效的禁令是2017年出台的政策的最后阶段,自那以来,外国垃圾的数量下降了68%,从4200万吨下降到2019年的1300万吨。由空前时间词可知,空处需用since when引
129、导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词2017,since when=and since then。故填when。【65题详解】考查时态和主谓一致。句意同上。由前文连接词since可知,空处谓语动词需用现在完成时态:have/has done,主语单数 the volume of foreign waste ,所以此处助动词需用has。故填has fallen。第四部分写作(共两节,满分40分)第一节应用文写作(满分15分)66. 假如你是李华,你的英国笔友Chris听说中国的太极拳申遗成功了,他对这项独特的中国功夫很感兴趣,请给他回一封电子邮件,为他介绍一下太极拳的相关信息。内容包括:1. 太极拳的

138、nattractive looking guy that just so happened to fancy the business owners daughter, who was pretty, lively and intelligent as well. He racked his brains and decided to offer the businessman a deal that would completely wipe out the debt he owed him. However, the catch was that he would only wipe ou
139、t the debt if he could marry the businessmans daughter.Needless to say, this proposal was met with a look of disgust. Neither the businessman and his daughter would easily fall for it. In order to make them fall into the trap, the loan-shark said that he would place two pebbles(鹅卵石) into a bag, one
140、white and one black. The daughter would then have to reach into the bag and pick out a pebble. If it was black, the debt would be wiped out, but the loan-shark would then marry her.

Still there was another risky but possible choice of taking both pebbles out of the bag and bringing the cheating to light. Inching towards th
