10、ay find that many of them are quite serious and speak in a range of terms that may be difficult to understand. But Zhang Wenhong, the leader of the Shanghai team of experts in the treatment of novel coronavirus pneumonia, is one of the exceptions. He caught the publics attention for his recent frank
11、 and funny speech. Zhangs words first went viral (走红) on the internet after he said in late January that he had dispatched (派遣) doctors and nurses who are members of the Communist Party of China (CPC) to frontline hospitals to treat coronavirus cases “When becoming CPC members, we vowed (发誓) that we
12、 would always prioritize peoples interests. . . in the face of difficulties,” Zhang said. “This is the moment we live up to the pledge (誓言). All CPC members must rush to the frontline. No bargaining.” Such a hardcore declaration of his attitude won widespread applause among internet users. A persons
13、 morals are witnessed most in a critical situation. Nothing could win more recognition from the people than the down-to-earth behavior of the CPC members,” said Yang Haiyan, a 32-year-old Shanghai resident. One month later, when Zhang advised local residents to reduce the risk of spreading the virus
14、 by staying at home, he said in Shanghai dialect: “If you dont stop seeing friends, you will see them again in the ICU.”Though chased by the media, Zhang described himself as a medical worker who must speak out now, but will return to keeping a low profile after the outbreak ends. “I spoke because o

19、（他因最近坦率而有趣的演讲而引起了公众的注意。），可知张文宏诚实幽默的演讲让他网上受欢迎。故选B项。【2题详解】细节理解题。由第三段中的“When becoming CPC members, we vowed (发誓) that we would always prioritize peoples interests. . . in the face of difficulties,” Zhang said. “This is the moment we live up to the pledge (誓言). All CPC members must rush to the frontline
20、. No bargaining.”（“当我们成为中国共产党党员时，我们发誓要永远把人民的利益放在首位。在困难面前，” 张文宏说。“这是我们履行诺言的时刻。全党同志都要冲到第一线去，不能讨价还价），可知张文宏认为党员应该像誓言的那样带头。故选C项。【3题详解】推理判断题。由倒数第二段的“Though chased by the media, Zhang described himself as a medical worker who must speak out now, but will return to keeping a low profile after the outbreak e
21、nds. ”（虽然受到媒体的追捧，但张文宏称自己是一名医务人员，现在必须发声，但在疫情结束后将恢复低调。）和最后一段中的“ “However, once the curtain of this coronavirus incident falls, it may be hard to find me. Ill just hide myself in a corner, studying complicated patient cases and doing some reading, silently. ”（“然而，一旦这次冠状病毒事件的帷幕落下，可能很难找到我。我就躲在角落里，静静地研究复杂
22、的病人病例，读点书。”），可推断出张文宏不是一个追求名望和关注的人。故选C项。【点睛】推理判断题不仅要求考生读懂文章中的每个句子的意思还要推理它们之间的关系，结合自己的生活常识和经验，再通过逻辑推理和判断，理解文章的言外之意，从而揭示文章的深层涵义。推理判断题的答案不可能在文章中直接找到，因此推理时我们务必要忠于原文，在文章中寻找并确定可推论的依据，即：已知部分推论的前提，从中推测出未知部分推理的结论，切忌妄加评论，把自己的观点当成作者的观点。如在第3小题中，倒数第二段的“Though chased by the media, Zhang described himself as a medi
23、cal worker who must speak out now, but will return to keeping a low profile after the outbreak ends. ”，最后一段中的“ “However, once the curtain of this coronavirus incident falls, it may be hard to find me. Ill just hide myself in a corner, studying complicated patient cases and doing some reading, silent
24、ly. ”，它们是已知部分，通过结合原文进行合理地逻辑判断，可推断出张文宏不是一个追求名望和关注的人。故选C项。BE-cigarettes lead to as many lung diseases as tobacco products, a new study has found.

The study adds to a growing body of evidence proving that e-cigarettes might not be the perfect alternative smokers addicted to tobacco are looking for. Last year a Surgeon Generals report c
26、laimed that the use of e-cigarettes among a certain group of people jumped 900 percent from 2011to 2015 and more studies were carried out to research their side effects. That same year, the FDA put e-cigarettes in the tobacco products the administration monitors. Previous research from UCLA has prov
27、en that e-cigarettes can cause lifelong damage to ones heart, and that one puff (吸一口烟) of an e-cigarette is all it takes to increase ones risk of having a heart attack. For the new study UNC researchers observed 15 e-cigarette users, 14 cigarette smokers and 15 nonsmokers. The study revealed that e-
28、cigarette smokers have raised levels of NET-related proteins in their airways, the increased levels of which can lead to lung illnesses, making it difficult for patients to breathe. Study author Dr Mehmet Keismer said, “There is confusion about whether e-cigarettes are safer than cigarettes because
29、the potential adverse effects of e-cigarettes are only beginning to be studied. Our results suggest that e-cigarettes might be just as bad as cigarettes. ” Dr Keismer also stressed that e-cigarettes come with their own harmful risks along with those linked to tobacco, which challenges the concept th
30、at switching from cigarettes to e-cigarettes is a healthier alternative. A citizen named Dyclna said, “The e-cigarettes probably make you cough less, but nobody gives a warning about your lungs. For producers, its just a money thing its just about getting profits from it. The problem is that our gov
31、ernment just stands there with its hands behind the back. ”4. Why did the FDA list e-cigarettes into monitored products?A. It might have realized the harm of them.B.

33、 E-cigarettes: A better way than tobacco?C. E-cigarettes: The harmful proteins it produces.D. E-cigarettes: The urgent need of government control.【答案】4. A 5. D 6. B【解析】【分析】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了很多人认为电子烟对身体无害，但是相关研究已经表明电子烟其实也会给人带来危害，而且其危害未必就小于传统香烟。【4题详解】推理判断题。根据文章第二段内容“Last year a Surgeon Generals report c
34、laimed that the use of e-cigarettes among a certain group of people jumped 900 percent from 2011to 2015 and more studies were carried out to research their side effects.”可知，从2011年到2015年，某一特定群体中使用电子烟的人数增长了900%，并且有更多的对其副作用的研究。由此可推知，应是“使电子烟人数的增加”和“电子烟有副作用”这些事实和研究使食品药品监管局意识到了电子烟的危害而将其列入监控产品。故选A项。【5题详解】推
35、理判断题。根据文章末尾段内容Dyclna所说的话“The problem is that our government just stands there with its hands behind the back.”可知，在他看来，政府对于电子烟的使用只是袖手旁观。由此推知，政府不应当袖手旁观，应当为电子烟的使用负责。故选D项。【6题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章体裁为新闻报道，首段点明文章主旨要义：The study adds to a growing body of evidence proving that e-cigarettes might not be the perfect al
36、ternative smokers addicted to tobacco are looking for.(这项研究进一步证明，电子烟可能不是吸烟者所寻找的完美替代品。)可知，文章主要介绍了有关电子烟对于健康影响的研究，并质疑电子烟是否为传统香烟的完美替代品。选项B“E-cigarettes: A better way than tobacco?”贴合主旨。故选B项。【点睛】抓住主题句解决标题题阅读理解文章多是议论文和说明文，这两种文体的结构可归纳为：提出问题论述问题得出结论或者阐明观点。对于这类文章，抓主题句是快速掌握文章大意的主要方法。主题句一般出现在文章的开头或结尾。主题句具有简洁性、
37、概括性的特点。比如文章的第3小题：3. What is the best title for the text? A. E-cigarettes: A new way of smoking. B. E-cigarettes: A better way than tobacco? C. E-cigarettes: The harmful proteins it produces. D. E-cigarettes: The urgent need of government control.要求选出最佳标题。通过阅读文章可知，文章为新闻体裁，首段应有主题句，即“The study adds to
38、a growing body of evidence proving that e-cigarettes might not be the perfect alternative smokers addicted to tobacco are looking for.”揭示文章主题应是“电子烟可能不是吸烟者所寻找的完美替代品”。选项B“E-cigarettes: A better way than tobacco?”用疑问的方式作为标题，提出了“质疑”，且包含文章核心词汇“e-cigarette”，与该主题句相呼应。故选B项为答案。CUN Humanitarian Chief Mark Low

49、.【答案】7. D 8. D 9. A 10. B【解析】这是一篇新闻报道。新冠状病毒疫情期间，联合国拨款1500万美元对病毒的传播、调查和科学实验等基本活动，以帮助卫生系统较为薄弱国家中的儿童、妇女和家庭进行疫情防疫。【7题详解】推理判断题。第二段第一句提到“the World Health Organization (WHO) upgraded the global risk of the coronavirus outbreak to “very high” its top level of risk assessment.”世界卫生组织已经将新冠病毒的风险提升至最高等级，故A项错误。第
50、二段最后一句提到“The WHO has said there is still a chance of containing the virus if its chain of transmission is broken.”世界卫生组织认为只要病毒的传播链断裂，就能抑制病毒，故B项错误。第三段第二句提到“It will fund essential activities including being aware of the spread of the virus, investigating cases, and putting national laboratories into u
51、se.”这项资金是用于资助一些基本活动那个，如了解病毒的传播、调查及实验室的费用，并非用于弱势群体，故C项错误。第一段第一句提到联合国人道主义事务负责人拨款1500万美元，但在第四段第一句提到“The WHO has called for US$675 million to fund the fight against coronavirus.”世卫组织呼吁拨款6.75亿美元，由此判断出联合国提供的资金比世卫组织最初要求的要少得多，故选D。【8题详解】细节理解题。第四段提到“It will fund essential activities including being aware of t
52、he spread of the virus, investigating cases, and putting national laboratories into use.”该项资金将用于了解病毒传播、调查、做实验等活动中。同时，倒数第二段倒数第二句提到“These funds will help support these countries get ready for detecting and isolating cases, protecting their health workers, and treating patients with dignity and appropr
53、iate care.”这些资金也会支持一些国家做好发现和隔离病例的准备，文中并没有提到这项资金将用于医院的建设，故选D。【9题详解】推理判断题。倒数第二段最后一句提到“This will help us save lives and push back the virus.”世卫组织总干事Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus认为这些资金可以帮助国家做好防疫工作，从而拯救生命，击退病毒。由此判断出Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus对抗击病毒的态度是。故选A。【10题详解】推理判断题。根据文章内容可知，文章提到了联合国和世卫组织对抗新冠病毒的一些措施，包括了解病毒
54、的传播、做好防疫工作、治疗护理感染人员等，由此可判断本文是与健康有关的内容。最可能在报纸的健康专栏读到这篇文章。故选B。三、七选五（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。选项中有两项为多余选项。Why Is 2020 Called a Leap Year?February 29 comes up on the calendar only every four years. A year with a February 29 might be good news if you are paid by the day or the week.
55、But it might be bad news if you were born on a February 29._11_.American English has a term for the unusual situation. February 29 is called a leap day. And the entire 12-month period with a February 29 in it is called a leap year. This year, 2020, is such a year. In a leap year, the dates jump over
56、 one day of the week. Let me explain. In 2017, the last day of the year, December 31, fell on a Sunday. In 2018, it fell on a Monday. In 2019, it fell on a Tuesday. But in 2020, December 31 will fall on a Thursday._12_. The reason for a leap day or a leap year is because our calendar does not follow
57、 the Earths orbit around the sun exactly._13_. So every four years, we put all that time together into an extra day or, what is officially called an intercalary(闰) day. “Leap” is also an important word for two other common American expressions._14_. If you want someone to investigate a situation com
58、pletely before taking action, you might say, “Look before you leap.” The other expression is a phrase of hope. Urging someone to “take a leap of faith” means inviting the person to take action, even if not everything about a situation is known. Interestingly, both phrases are completely reasonable t
59、o say to someone who is about to get married. On that note, some people choose to marry on February 29 because it is an unusual date._15_. Leap years were believed to be difficult, and leap days unlucky and a bad time to begin anything new. Whatever you think about them, the change in the calendar w
60、ill be gone soon enough. Then we can return to normal, and leap over February 29 as usual.A. One is a kind of warning.B. Thats why we called it a Leap YearC. It just leaped right over Wednesday.D. Each year, we have a little time left over.E. You have to wait three years in between birthdays!F. As a
61、 verb, the word “leap” means to jump, or to move quickly.G. Some ancient peoples would likely tell couples not to do it, however.【答案】11. E 12. C 13. D 14. A 15. G【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了闰年的情况：由来，习语，以及对其的新旧观点看法。【11题详解】根据前文“But it might be bad news if you were born on a February 29.”可知，如果出生在2月29日，这可能是个坏消息。
62、由此可推知，设空句应是解释“坏消息”。选项E“You have to wait three years in between birthdays!”提及得等三年才能过生日，这合理解释了为什么出生在2月29日是一个坏消息，与上一句话题一致，意思衔接紧密。故选E项。【12题详解】根据前文“In 2019, it fell on a Tuesday. But in 2020, December 31 will fall on a Thursday.”可知，2019年是周二，但在2020年，12月31日将是一个星期四。选项C “It just leaped right over Wednesday.”
63、解释了“它正好跳过了星期三”与前两句意思衔接紧密，且呼应前文提及“In a leap year, the dates jump over one day of the week.(在闰年，日期跳过一周中的一天。)”这一话题。故选C项。【13题详解】根据后文“So every four years, we put all that time together into an extra day or, what is officially called an intercalary day.”提及所以每隔四年，会把所有的时间加在一起，变成额外的一天。由此推知，设空句应提及“有时间剩余”，由此才会
64、出现后文的将所有剩余时间加在一起成为额外的一天。选项D“Each year, we have a little time left over.”提及每年都有一些剩余的时间，呼应后文的“that time”，符合语境。故选D项。【14题详解】根据后文If you want someone to investigate a situation completely before taking action, you might say, “Look before you leap.”解释为：如果你想让某人在采取行动之前彻底调查一下情况，你可以说“三思而后行”。可知，这种说法是一种警告。选项A “O
65、ne is a kind of warning.(一种是警告。)”放在该句前可体现与该句之间的总分关系，即总说和解释的关系，符合语境。故选A项。【15题详解】根据后文“Leap years were believed to be difficult, and leap days unlucky and a bad time to begin anything new. (过去人们认为闰年是困难的，而闰日是不吉利的，不适合开始做任何新事情。)”解释了为什么不让选择闰年结婚。因此设空句应涉及内容为“不能在闰年结婚”，选项G“Some ancient peoples would likely tel
66、l couples not to do it, however.(然而，一些古代民族可能会告诉夫妻不要这样做。)”符合语境分析，且句子“however”与前文“On that note, some people choose to marry on February 29 because it is an unusual date.(因此，有些人选择在2月29日结婚，因为这是一个不寻常的日子。)”形成对比转折关系。故选G项。四、单项选择（共5小题：每小题1分，满分5分）16.

67、 has great _ for rapid growth in the near future.A. strengthB. functionC. potentialD. burden【答案】C【解析】【分析】【详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意：中国将继续抑制通货膨胀，经济在不久的将来仍有很大的增长潜力。A. strength力量；长处；B. function功能；C. potential潜力；潜在性；D. burden负担。根据前文“China will continue to curb inflation”可知，中国将继续抑制通货膨胀是为了经济的发展而采取的措施，因此后文“the econom
68、y still has great _ for rapid growth in the near future”为其顺应性结论：经济的快速发展是有可能的。have(great) potential for，意为“有很大的潜力”，符合语境。故选C项。17.

70、寻找的时候；D. breakthrough突破；突破性进展；when combing through当仔细搜寻的时候。分析可知，后文that引导的从句应是第一个空的同位语从句，“that a Chinese search vessel, Haixun 01 picked up signals consistent with black box technology _ the South Indian Ocean for the missing plane”，其中“_ the South Indian Ocean for the missing plane”应是从句的时间状语，根据选项可判断为
71、省略句，即，该省略句的主语应是从句主语Haixun 01(海巡1号)，宾语为the missing plane(失踪飞机)，因此其对应动作谓语应是comb through sth for sth，意为“仔细搜寻”，结合同位语从句的含义为“海巡1号在南印度洋搜寻失踪飞机时，获得了和黑匣子科技一致的信号”，可知，这应是“突破；突破性进展（breakthrough）”。因此第一个空应是breakthrough，第二个空应是when combing through。故选D项。18.

72、o five: excellent, fairly good, slightly polluted, poor and dangerous.A. classifiesB. arrangesC. correspondD. divides【答案】A【解析】【分析】【详解】考查动词词义辨析。句意：政府把城区的空气质量分为1到5个等级：优秀，较好，好，轻度污染，糟糕，危险。A. classifies分类；分等；B. arranges安排；C. correspond相一致；相对应；D. divides分；分离；分配。根据后文“from levels one to five”可知，将城区空气质量分为了五个
73、等级，选项A“classifies”有划分等级含义。故选A项。19.

It is merely a mistake.【答案】41. universally 42. led 43. longer 44. suggests 45. without 46. that 47. developing 48. an 49. loss 50. are transformed【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。人们普遍认为，乐观的态度既能促进健康，又能促进幸福。然而有实验证明乐观确实能够促进健康和幸福，从而带来长寿。【41题详解】考查副词。is desired(被渴望)是系表结构，这里应该填写universal的副词形式universally修饰desired，表示“普
101、遍地”。故填universally。【42题详解】考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知lead在句子做非谓语动词，且与逻辑主语research project构成被动关系，故用过去分词。故填led。【43题详解】考查比较级。上文中出现了sought（痛苦）所以这里的研究的结果应该是和痛苦的人比较起来，乐观的人活得更久，用比较级的形式。故填longer。【44题详解】考查动词时态。evidence作“证据”之意时为不可数名词，故谓语动词应使用第三人称单数形式。故填suggests。【45题详解】考查介词。and作为并列连接词，前后通常表示并列和顺承关系，所以此处应该填入与good health（良好
102、健康）意思相近的without disability（无残疾）。故填without。【46题详解】考查连接词。句意：因此，我们的发现提出了一种令人兴奋的可能性，即我们可以通过培养乐观等积极态度来促进健康和幸福。本句为同位语从句修饰possibility，且从句中不缺少成分，故用that引导。故填that。【47题详解】考查非谓语动词。根据短语by doing sth表示“通过做”。故填developing。【48题详解】考查冠词。part为可数名词，根据上文is可知应用单数形式，且important为元音音素开头的单词。故填an。【49题详解】考查名词。根据短语the loss of sth.
103、/sb.“失去（的感受）”。故填loss。【50题详解】考查动词时态语态。本句中主语与谓语动词构成被动关系，且主语matters为复数，谓语动词用复数形式。故填are transformed。【点睛】当分词做状语的时候，如果构成分词的动词与句子的主语构成主动关系，就使用现在分词做状语；当二者构成被动关系，使用过去分词做状语。如果分词的动作发生在谓语动词之前，就使用分词的完成式。如果分词与句子的主语没有关系，可以使用状语从句或者独立主格结构。如第二小题，分析句子结构可知lead在句子做非谓语动词，且与逻辑主语research project构成被动关系，故用过去分词。故填led。七、单词拼写（共
104、5小题：每小题1分，满分5分）根据所给汉语或首字母写出空缺处单词的适当形式，使句子完整，语法正确，每空一词。51.

106、ence begins to a_, the truth will come out. (根据首字母填空) 【答案】accumulate【解析】【分析】本题考查单词拼写能力和词汇语境应用能力。【详解】考查动词。句意：别担心。随着证据开始积累，真相就会浮出水面。根据所给出的句子，结合首字母提示可推知，应是accumulate。accumulate，动词，意为“积聚；累积”，句中位于固定短语结构begin to do中，作begin的宾语，to已经存在。故填accumulate。54. Elizabeth r_ her mother facially, but is quite different
107、 in character. (根据首字母填空)【答案】resembles【解析】【分析】【详解】考查动词。句意：伊丽莎白在外貌上像她的母亲，但性格却大不相同。根据所给出的句子，结合首字母提示可推知，应是动词resemble“像”，在句中担当谓语，结合后文“but is quite different in character”可知，应是一般现在时，主语“Elizabeth”为第三人称单数，应用第三人称单数形式。故填resembles。55.
