My parents left because they had been running fever for several days and they were showing other symptoms of COVID-19. The virus, COVID-
14、19, is somehow fearsome because it does not discriminate (区别对待) in choosing who it infects. And if the older people were infected, the situation could be worse, so I was wondering whether my parents would make it. On the second day, my parents called and asked me how I was. We talked using Facetime,
15、 and the moment I saw mom lying there with an oxygen mask and my dad could not talk without breathing heavily, I realized that I had to live on my own. But two weeks later, I got a fever and had to go into quarantine (隔离) to be observed for 14 days. Fortunately, my illness turned out to be not COVID
16、-19. Everything there was busy, and there seemed to be a shortage of medical staff and materials were in short supply. Even though the doctors and nurses were covered from head to toe, I could see how tired they were when I looked into their bloodshot eyes. Most of the patients were really understan
17、ding, but of course there were those who were not, and complained loudly, but all the doctors and nurses tried their best to deal with it in a calming way. When the quarantine was over, every patient thanked the workers for what they had done, but the answer they received was exactly the same: “That
18、s what were here for.”24. When did the authors parents leave her for the hospital? A. January 23. B. January 30. C. February 2. D. January 31. 25. What does the underlined phrase “make it” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Succeed. B. Join in. C. Live through. D. Arrive. 26. What can we learn according to the
19、 passage? A. Not all the patients understood the doctors and nurses. B. Both the author and her parents got infected with COVID-19. C. The patients were too tired. D. The virus infects the older more easily. 27. What may the author think of the medical workers according to the passage? A. Outgoing.
20、B. Respectable. C. Impatient. D. Calm. C The next time you make yourself a hot cup of tea or coffee, you might want to let it cool down a bit before drinking. Researchers say letting your hot drinks cool off could help you avoid some kinds of cancer. In fact, the United Nations cancer research agenc
21、y decides to list hot drinks with lead, gasoline and exhaust fumes as possibly carcinogenic (致癌的). In other words, each one could cause cancer. Researchers at the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) found evidence that drinks at temperatures above 65 degrees Celsius, when swallowed, c
22、an cause cancer of the esophagus (食道). The researchers examined findings from other studies where tea and coffee were often served at 70 degrees Celsius or above. Those studies were completed in China and South America. In developed countries, health experts have linked esophageal cancer to smoking
23、and alcoholic drinks. However, this form of cancer is more common in areas where people have drinks at very high temperatures. In Europe and the United States, many people drink coffee and tea at temperatures around 60 degrees Celsius. And they often add milk which lowers the temperature considerabl
24、y. However, tea-drinkers in South America often enjoy their beverages at closer to 70 degrees Celsius. In 1991, the World Health Organization (WHO) listed coffee as possibly carcinogenic. WHO officials have since changed their position on that listing. They now suggest that the temperature of your h
25、ot drink is a greater risk factor than the actual drink itself. Christopher Wild is the director of the IARC. He said that the results suggest that drinking very hot beverages is one probable cause of esophageal cancer and that it is the temperature, rather than the drinks themselves, that appears t
26、o be responsible. 28 . Who most probably suffers from cancer of the esophagus? A. A girl who likes cold milk. B. A man who drinks very hot tea. C. A woman who likes coffee. D. A man who works at IARC. 29. Why did the WHO remove coffee from possibly carcinogenic list? A. People dont like coffee any l
27、onger. B. People drink coffee at 60 degrees Celsius. C. Coffee has nothing to do with cancer. D. Temperature is more dangerous than coffee itself. 30. How does the author mainly support the theme of the text? A. By studying examples. B. By starting arguments. C. By providing research results. D. By
28、explaining statistical data. 31. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Hot Drinks Linked to CancerB. Reduce Having Hot Drinks C. Danger of Drinking Hot DrinksD. Healthy DrinksD Globalization means that people, ideas, technology, money, services and many other things are moving between countr
29、ies and changing the way people think and act. Not everyone thinks the same way about globalization. Some people think it is bad，and some people think it is good. Some believe that globalization helps rich people get richer and makes poor people poorer. These people say that globalization helps big
30、companies like Coca-Cola and McDonalds destroy local businesses. However, the people who think globalization is a good thing argue that globalization helps poorer people to become richer. They also think that it doesnt destroy local cultures. These people also believe globalization helps prevent war
31、s. This is because countries with economic (经济的) connections will try hard to keep good relationships so that their economies arent destroyed. Whether you think globalization is good or bad, it affects the world in two areas: jobs and cultures. Globalization has had a very strong influence on jobs a
32、ll over the world. For some workers, such as engineers, lawyers and bankers, globalization has been a good development. These workers are able to successfully compete globally and have seen an increase in their pay. But for those who work in factories or in the service industry (at hotels，shops and
33、restaurants), it has not been good. Workers from poorer countries are trying to get these types of jobs. They will do the same job for less money. This decreases the pay for that job, so people get paid less to do it. Cultures have also been affected by globalization. Foods such as Japanese noodles,
34、 Indian curry and French cheeses have spread around the world. We can also see an increase in the use of Chinese characters in tattoos (纹身). Some people get these tattoos but they dont really know what the characters mean. Globalization also affects the film industry. Most people have seen American
35、movies. But because of globalization, Korean, Indian and Japanese movies have become more worldwide. No one knows the future of globalization. Most experts agree that it will continue to grow and have an increasingly greater influence on peoples life in the future. 32. Some people think globalizatio
36、n is good because it may _. A. change local cultures B. help local businesses develop C. help stop wars among countries D. make rich people become richer33. According to Paragraph 4, we know _. A. engineers will get a lower pay B. globalization greatly affects peoples jobs C. workers from rich count
37、ries get paid less D. people can get favorite jobs more easily34. Globalization helps people in the world to _. A. enjoy foods from different countries B. go to different countries for movies C. own the same culture in the end D. know Chinese characters very well35. What can we infer from the passag
38、e? A. Globalization is sure to do good to people. B. Globalization may change peoples life in the future. C. Globalization will be limited in the future. D. Globalization will be loved throughout the world.第二节(共5小题; 每小题2分, 满分10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。选项中两项为多余选项。How to Make Friends Friendshi

40、ch changes often leave us without a friend. 36 But for many of us the process is difficult and requires courage. Below are some helpful suggestions on how to make and keep friends.
