baak ngo gong ge waa ah? Do you understand what I am saying?” I
stare back at the speaker dumbly, my lips parted, the ideas clear
in my mind but a response unable to express itself in a language
in my distant range. After an uncomfortable pause, a bunch of wo
rds spill out of my mouth, sounding forced and unnatural.The anec
dote（轶事）above is a semi-conversation I had in Malaysia years ago.
A three-week stay in Malaysia once every few years was often the
highlight of my summers — what more can you ask from a food para
dise? But besides the family, food, and escape that Malaysia offe
red, trips also brought accompanying feelings of guilt that I jus
t couldn’t seem to translate. For one month every few summers, I
got a taste of what it feels to be an outsider in my own culture,
peering in. I was a girl lost in translation, passively absorbin
g the various tongues shouted between the stalls in the wet marke
ts, quietly nodding along at my grandparents’ huge family dinners
.In America though, I am a different person. I don’t think twice
about my grammar when speaking. I don’t struggle with the words a
nd fear that my logic and stories won’t get through to people. So
as a native English speaker, I do not have to worry daily about
whether I’m judged for having an accent or whether I’m misunderst
ood across languages. In Malaysia, I naturally burst out “have yo
u eaten?” instead of recalling the Malaysian equivalent “you maka
n already?” In Malaysia, everything about the way I speak — my ac
cent, intonation, sentence structure, slang — gives me away. My A
merican-ness is seen in the way I talk, dress, and act. Maybe my
face could pass for a Malaysian local, but once I open my mouth t
o speak I am so clearly not. It is uncomfortable and awkward, and
sometimes I wonder if I did not look Asian at all would it be be
tter, since there would be no more language expectation for me th
an for a white tourist.4.How did the author feel in the anecdote?
A. Confused and scared.B. Embarrassed and nervous.C. Curious and
surprised.D. Upset and puzzled.5. Why did the author feel guilty
according to Paragraph 2?A. Because she had to stay away from her
family.B. Because she didn’t enjoy speaking the language.C. Beca
use she had to accept what grandparents said.D. Because she found
it hard to understand the culture.6.What can we learn about the
author from the last paragraph?A. She was a good language learner
.B. She didn’t like being an Asian.C. She was judged unfairly in
Malaysia.D. She spoke English unconsciously in Malaysia.7.From wh
ich column of the website does this article probably come from?A.
OpinionB. News.C. Education.D. Humor.CWalking over water might s
ound unbelievable. In fact, people do it all the time. How? Almos
t all of the world’s liquid fresh water that is called groundwate
r lies underground.Earth is a water planet, but most of its water
is in the oceans. Only about 2.5 percent of the planet’s water i
s fresh water, of which nearly 69 percent is frozen in glaciers（冰
川）and ice caps and about 30 percent is groundwater - much more th
an the 1.2 percent that flows through rivers and fills lakes.Grou
ndwater is found almost everywhere on Earth. It hides under mount
ains, plains and even deserts. Tiny gaps between rocks and soil g
rains take in and hold this water like a sponge（海绵）, forming buri
ed bodies of water called aquifers（地下蓄水层）. Together, they hold ab
out 60 times as much water as the world’s lakes and rivers combin
ed. Groundwater is a key part of the earth’s water cycle. Rain an
d melted snow go down into the ground. The water can stay there f
or thousands of years. Some groundwater naturally runs out onto t
he earth’s surface through springs. It also flows into lakes, riv
ers and wetlands. People get groundwater through wells for drinki
ng, watering crops and other uses.As human-caused climate change
dries out parts of the planet, demand for groundwater may rise. A
t the same time, climate change may increase storms. Heavier rain
is more likely to rush straight into streams and storm drains, i
nstead of going into the soil. So, there may be less groundwater
around.Many of the world’s aquifers already seem to be drying up.
Twenty-one of the earth’s 37 biggest aquifers are becoming small
er, satellite data show. The most dried-out aquifers are near big
cities, farms, or dry regions. As groundwater stores dwindle, th
ey hold less water to refill rivers and streams, thus threatening
freshwater ecosystems.8.What can we know about groundwater from
Paragraph 3?A. It will end up in rivers and seas.B. It’s mainly s
tored in wet regions.C. It’s mainly kept in the form of aquifers.
D. It runs out onto the earth’s surface regularly.9.Why does clim
ate change result in less groundwater according to the text?A. It
makes heavier rain go into the soil.B. It raises the temperature
and increases daytime.C. It causes glaciers to disappear faster
than ever.D. It allows less rain to go underground directly.10.Wh
at does the underlined word “dwindle” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Decrease.B. Change.C. Develop.D. Form.11.What is the best titl
e of the passage?A. The threat from climate changeB. The water cy
cle in the worldC. The decrease of groundwaterD. Water crisis on
the planetDAnnissa Jobb, with a walking stick, went to the office
of Riam Shammaa, a pain specialist in Toronto, in 2017. Jobb’s b
ack pain first appeared about a decade earlier due to an undiagno
sed herniated disc, which had pressed a nerve. As the pain worsen
ed, Jobb clenched her teeth and tried to keep going. Now she was
desperate for help. “I had a drawer full of pain medication. None
of it was working.” said Jobb.Historically, the treatment of suc
h back pain has been less than ideal, sometimes causing patients
to become addicted to painkillers or to undergo major surgery, wh
ich is suitable for only about 1 in 20 patients. Hunting for a so
lution beyond these limited options, Dr. Shammaa turned to stem c
ells—the building-block cells found in various tissues in adult b
odies—which can generate a set of different cells. Specifically,
he’d been studying bone marrow（骨髓）stem cells, and he invited Jobb
to participate in a study with 23 other patients. He hoped that
injecting（注射）the stem cells, known as MSCs, into the patient’s he
rniated disc would multiply and heal the damaged tissue.The proce
dure took three and a half hours. It began with the collection of
Jobb’s bone marrow—the most painful step—which was immediately d
istilled（蒸馏）and concentrated into bone marrow mixture, or BMAC, t
hen injected into the discs. Guided by a special type of X-ray, D
r. Shammaa inserted a needle through Jobb’s spine to place the BM
AC into the discs. Jobb remained awake for the entire procedure i
n order to alert Dr. Shammaa if he touched a nerve. Afterward, Jo
bb recovered in bed for two weeks and then, slowly, began to walk
.A month later she stepped swiftly into the clinic, a moment Dr.
Shammaa recalled with delight. “While Jobb had previously describ
ed her pain as ‘beyond ten’, she says that it’s now a two.”12.Wha
t is the main idea of the first paragraph?A. Annissa Jobb’s back
pain experiencesB. The desperate situation of Annissa JobbC. The
treatment of Annis Jobb’s illnessD. The cause for Annissa Jobb’s
visit to a pain specialist13.Why does the author mention the trea
tment of back pain in history?A. To introduce the process of the
previous treatmentB. To explain the necessity of Dr. Shammaa’s re
searchC. To show the development of the treatment of back painD.
To provide the supporting evidence for Dr. Shammaa’s research14.W
hat can we know about the stem cells in the treatment?A. They can
function in any part of human bodiesB. They are able to help cel
ls reproduce and recoverC. They will be injected into the tissues
nearby herniated discD. They will be concentrated before collect
ing patients’s bone marrow15.What can we infer from Dr. Shammaa’s
words in the last paragraph?A. Jobb has a poor comment on her tr
eatment.B. Jobb has only two pain spots after the treatment.C. Jo
bb’s back pain has been dramatically relieved.D. Jobb’s back pain
is evaluated more precisely than before.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分, 满分12.5
分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。For some people, musi
c is no fun at all. About four percent of the population is what
scientists call “amusic.” People who are amusic are born without
the ability to recognize or reproduce musical notes（音调）. ___16___
Amusics can only hear the difference between two notes if they a
re very far apart on the musical scale.___17___ Many amusics comp
are the sound of music to pieces of metal hitting each other. Lif
e can be hard for amusics.Their inability to enjoy music set them
apart from others. It can be difficult for other people to ident
ify with their condition. In fact, most people cannot begin to gr
asp what it feels like to be amusic. Just going to a restaurant o
r a shopping mall can be uncomfortable or even painful. That is w
hy many amusics intentionally stay away from places where there i
s music. ___18___ “I used to hate parties and I was distant from
my friends.” says Margaret, a seventy-year-old woman who only rec
ently discovered that she was amusic. By studying people like Mar
garet, scientists are finally learning how to identify this unusu
al condition.Scientists say that the brains of amusics are differ
ent from the brains of people who can appreciate music. The diffe
rence is complex, and it doesn’t involve defective hearing. Amusi
cs can understand other nonmusical sounds well. They also have no
problems understanding ordinary speech. ___19___Many amusics are
happy when their condition is finally diagnosed（诊断）. For years,
Margaret felt embarrassed about her problem with music. ___20___
There is a name for her condition. That makes it easier for her t
o explain. “When people invite me to a concert, I just say, ‘No t
hanks, I’m amusic,’” says Margaret. “I just wish I had learned to
say that when I was seventeen and not seventy.”A.Songs sound lik
e noise to an amusic.B.Now she knows that she is not alone.C.The
notes sound different to an amusic.D.She felt lonely while stayin
g away from others.E.However, this can result in withdrawal and s
ocial isolation.F.Amusic people often cannot tell the difference
between two songsG.Scientists compare amusics to people who just
can’t see certain colors.第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分

om,Yours,Li Hua第二节（满分25分）阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。One
day last December, Flores Gonzalez, the mother of a four-year ol
d girl Luna, came up with the idea of having the girl send a lett
er to Santa by balloon, saying that Santa would grab the balloon
while he flew through the air on his sled.The girl was excited. F
lores helped her compose the letter, writing down all the things
she dreamed Santa might bring her, and then put the notes into fe
stive red balloons. Flores then took her outside to release the w
ish to the universe. “Bye, balloon!” the girl called waving as th
e balloon floated away, sailing above the trees and into the sky.
Some days later, Alvin Bamburg, 66, was deep in the woods in Gran
d Cane, Louisiana when something drew his attention. Caught in a
fallen tree, it looked like litter. But Bamburg couldn’t help pic
king it up. “God just told me” he said.As Bamburg approached, he
saw that the object was a broken balloon. Attached was a piece of
paper decorated with sparkly star stickers. It was a child’s Chr
istmas wish list.“Dear Santa” the handwritten note read. “My name
is Luna. I am four years old. I live in Liberal, Kansas. This ye
ar I have been nice. I would like candy, Spider-Man ball, Frozen
doll, puppy, My Little Pony. With love Luna.”Bamburg’s heart poun
ded in his chest. Ever since he was a child, he had dreamed of th
is very scene. “Years ago,” he says,“classes at school released b
alloons with notes. I’ve always wanted to find one.” He believed
this was his childhood wish coming true. And he knew he was going
to make Luna''s wish come true too. He just wasn’t sure how. Libe
ral, Kansas, is more than 350 miles from Grand Cane, Louisiana. B
ut Bamburg’s wife, Lee Ann, was not discouraged by the distance.
As a keen Internet user, she had seen other people find all sorts
of connections on the Internet and thought it might help her hus
band find Luna.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。Alvin als

Dear John,I am quite disturbed these days as I have a disagreemen
t with my parents over my career choice. I just can’t help writin
g to tell about it and ask for your advice.I have always dreamed
of being a tourist guide, which will offer me great opportunities
to broaden ray horizon and enrich my experience. However, ray parents hope that I should go in for professions with a secure income and stable life like teachers or doctors.I am caught in a dilemma. Is it better to obey my parents and take a career that I don’t enjoy but guarantee long-term stability? Or should I go against my parents’ will and pursuit a career that brings me happiness and satisfaction?What would you do if you were in my position? I really hope that you can give me some advice.Yours,Li Hua第二节（满分25分）Alvin also thought it was a good idea. He posted a photo of the Christmas list on his Facebook page, asking for help locating the sender. Just in a few hours, the number of people sharing her post creep into the hundreds. People from all over the world were asking if they, too, could be part of fulfilling the wish list. “My hope grew into expectations,” Alvin says. “I knew we were going to find Luna.” Still, there was one wish on the list that couldn’t go in the box: A puppy. Alvin had hoped to get every last item on that list. So he tried to search and found a perfect one in the end.Several days later, the couple got out of the car with presents in front of the girl’s house. Alvin let the puppy run to the excited girl, who exclaimed with delight when she learned it was hers. Tears filling her eyes, Flores offered the Bamburgs her heartfelt gratitude. It seemed that the balloon broke at just the right moment to fulfill a child’s Christmas wish and brought two faraway families together.学科网（北京）股份有限公司 zxxk.com学科网（北京）股份有限公司 |
