To: evaluation@https://www.360docs.net/doc/6f18645284.html,

Subject: Piano restoration

Date: November 1

Hello Mr. Parkes,

I own a piano that I would like to have restored. It is one of the very first Steinway & Sons pianos produced, and dates back to the late-1800s.

I would like to have the piano fully restored. This restoration will involve the piano’s internal mechanic s (机械部件) as well as the pia no’s wood, which has a rough surface. The piano stool(琴凳) will also need restoring. Remarkably, all of the piano’s keys are still in perfect condition.

As I would probably qualify for free pickup and delivery, could you also tell me which transport company you use?

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Regards,

Benjamin Rothschild

Leaving Earth and entering space was once a dream that only highly trained pilots could achieve. But with the rise in space tourism, we might be able to observe our planet from on-high by the end of this year.

The US spaceflight company announced on Feb 25 that tickets for its future private commercial space tourism

flights would be on sale again. This has come 14 months after its first successful test flight of its spacecraft called VSS Unity.

The company said that it would begin a process called “One Small Step”, which allows people to book a place online to become a passenger on an upcoming flight for $1, 000.

But while Virgin Gala ctic’s mantra (信条) is to make it easy for everyone to get into space, it is currently only available to the wealthiest one percent. Among these confirmed famous figures are Canadian singer Justin Bieber and US actor Leonardo DiCaprio.

For this, passengers will receive one of the six available seats on VSS Unity capable of reaching Mach-3 (three times the speed of sound). They will be treated to a suborbital (亚轨道的) view of Earth from at least 80.5 kilometers and will float in zero gravity (重力) for a few minutes before gliding back to the ground.

“We are at the vanguard (前沿) of a new industry which will open space to everybody,” said Virgin Galactic’s founder Richard Branston.

Speaking to CNBC, the company’s CEO George Whitesides said, “The plan is to have fiv e spaceships by 2023 ... and we do desire to build next-generation Mach-3 vehicles that can go point-to-point like regular airliners.”

This dream may sound like something out of Star Wars. But with ever-increasing investment and growing public interest, who knows what kind of space advances you may witness in your lifetime.

4. What can we learn about VSS Unity from the text?

A. It will open its flight reservation.

B. It is cheap and available to most people.

C. It can seat hundreds of passengers per flight.

D. It is a private spacecraft developed within 14 months.

5. Passengers on VSS Unity will __________.

A. travel at the speed of sound.

B. get an excellent view of the moon.

C. experience a bit of weightlessness.

D. enjoy Justin Bieber’s beautiful songs.

6. What is the a uthor’s attitude toward the private commercial space tourism flights?

A. Uninterested.

B. Doubtful.

C. Worried.

D. Optimistic.

7. Which might be the best title for the passage?

A. Life in outer space.

B. Space tours for all?

C. Exploration or tourism?

D. P ilots’ dream coming true.

【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. B

【解析】

【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了随着科技发展和投资力度加大，未来我们所有人都可能从高空观察我们的星球。

【4题详解】

细节理解题。根据文章第二段“The US spaceflight company announced on Feb 25 that tickets for its future private commercial space tourism flights would be on sale again. This has come 14 months after its first successful test flight of its spacecraft called VSS Unity.”（2月25日，这家美国航天公司宣布，其未来的私人商业太空旅游航班将重新开始售票。这距离名为VSS Unity的航天器首次成功试飞已经过去了14个月。）可知，VSS Unity将开放它的航班预订。故选A项。

【5题详解】

细节理解题。根据文章第五段“For this, passengers will receive one of the six available seats on VSS Unity capable of reaching Mach-3 (three times the speed of sound). They will be treated to a suborbital (亚轨道的) view of Earth from at least 80.5 kilometers and will float in zero gravity (重力) for a few minutes before gliding back to the ground.”（为此，乘客将获得VSS Unity上六个可达到马赫-3(音速的三倍)的座位之一。他们将在至少80.5公里外的亚轨道上看到地球，并在失重状态下漂浮几分钟，然后滑翔回地面。）可知，VSS Unity上的乘客将会体验到一点失重。故选C项。

【6题详解】

推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“This dream may sound like something out of Star Wars. But with ever-increasing investment and growing public interest, who knows what kind of space advances you may witness in your lifetime.”（这个梦听起来可能有点像《星球大战》里的情节。但随着投资的不断增加和公众兴趣的不断增加，谁知道你在有生之年会看到什么样的空间进步。）可推断，作者对私人商业太空旅游飞行持乐观态度。故选D项。【7题详解】

主旨大意题。根据第一段“Leaving Earth and entering space was once a dream that only highly trained pilots could achieve. But with the rise in space tourism, we might be able to observe our planet from on-high by the end of this year.”（离开地球进入太空曾经是一个只有训练有素的飞行员才能实现的梦想。但随着太空旅游的兴起，到今年年底，我们或许就能从高空观察我们的星球了。）以及倒数第三段““We are at the vanguard (前沿) of a new industry which will open space to everybody,” said Virgin Galactic’s founder Richard Branston.”（维珍银河创始人理查德?布兰斯顿说：“我们是一个新行业的先锋，它将向所有人开放太空。”）可知，本文主要讲述的是对将来所有人太空之旅的期待。所以“Space tours for all?(所有人的太空之旅?)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选B项。

C

When I was growing up my family was very poor. One year, we celebrated Christmas late because Dad needed

to construct a tree from the roadside branches he could find the week after the holiday. Money was a hard-to-come-by thing.

By the time I was in primary school, I had become creative in obtaining money. I used to go to the local flea market on Sundays. On one such visit, I noticed a woman selling a popular toy, the Chinese Yo-Yo, ten for a dollar. I thought I could risk a buck, and I bough t ten. By the end of the week, I sold all ten… each for a dollar. When I returned to the market the next Sunday, I reinvested my ten dollars and bought a hundred more.

Being in a difficult financial situation taught me perseverance (坚持不懈) and adaptability early on. I am an elementary school teacher, and every day I see our children are being handed far too much. Second graders are getting the iPhone for their seventh birthdays.

Kids also procrastinate and wait until the last moment to work on their Mission Projects. As a result, Dad runs out to the store, buys everything his daughter needs the night before the project is due, and he stays up long after the late night talk shows，making his daughter’s school project.

How can our kids per severe when Mom and Dad clear all of life’s obstacles (障碍)? How can kids push through and be creative and innovative when they are handed everything they desire?

I have seen parents who are struggling financially put themselves deeper in debt in order to clear a path for their children. This isn’t just bad news for parents and their finances-kids never get the opportunity to problem-solve, to figure things out, to come up with ideas, to engage their brains and feel empowered once they have moved themselves ahead.

8. The author’s family celebrated Christmas late one year possibly because __________.

A. their father was out of work.

B. their father had to clear the roadside branches.

C. they couldn’t afford a Christmas tree.

D. they father didn’t finish his wo rk before Christmas.

9. What can we learn from the author’s experience in making money?

A. Kids can easily earn a lot of money.

B. Hardship teaches kids something valuable.

C. Business encourages and inspires kids’ creativity.

D. It’s important for kids be independent of their parents.

10. The underlined word “procrastinate” in Paragraph 4 probably means __________.

A. adapt.

B. recover.

C. progress.

D. delay.

11. What does the author advise parents to do?

A. Go through thick and thin with kids.

B. Set proper and practical goals for kids.

C. Let kids overcome their own obstacles.

D. Give kids chances to try a different lifestyle.

【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. C

【解析】

【分析】这是一篇夹叙夹议的文章。作者结合自己小时候的经历和现在孩子的状况，告诫父母要让孩子自己解决问题。

【8题详解】

推理判断题。根据第一段的“When I was growing up my family was very poor. One year, we celebrated Christmas late because Dad needed to construct a tree from the roadside branches he could find the week after the holiday.”（在我成长的过程中我家很穷。一年，我们庆祝圣诞节晚了些。因为爸爸需要用路边的树枝做一棵圣诞树，他可以在节后一周找到这些树枝。）可推知，作者家有一年晚过圣诞节是因为家里买不起圣诞树，只能等节后一周爸爸用路边的树枝做一棵圣诞树。故选C。

【9题详解】

细节理解题。结合第二段作者到跳蚤市场买悠悠球挣钱的经历和第三段的“Being in a difficult financial situation taught me perseverance (坚持不懈) and adaptability early on.”（困难的财务状况教会了我坚持不懈和早期的适应能力。）可知，我们可以从作者挣钱的经历知道困境可以教会孩子一些珍贵的、有价值的东西。故选B。

【10题详解】

词句猜测题。根据划线部分所在句子“Kids also procrastinate and wait until the last moment to work on their Mission Projects.”可知，孩子们总是procrastinate，等到最后一刻才开始完成他们的任务。结合句意，尤其是wait until the last moment（等到最后一刻）可推知划线词的意思是“推迟”，与delay同义。故选D。【11题详解】

推理判断题。根据最后一段“I have seen parents who are struggling financially put themselves deeper in debt in order to clear a path for their children. This isn’t just bad news for parents and their finances-kids never get the opportunity to problem-solve, to figure things out, to come up with ideas, to engage their brains and feel empowered once they have moved themselves ahead.（我看到那些在财务上苦苦挣扎的父母，为了给孩子扫清生命之路的障碍而让自己债台高筑。这不仅对父母来说是坏消息，也让他们有财务问题的孩子无法得到解决问题、弄清事情、想出点子、动用他们大脑的能力，也无法体会一旦他们取得成功就会觉得自己力量的感觉。）”可知，父母帮助孩子解决问题是不能帮助孩子的。由此推知，作者建议父母让孩子自己克服问题。故选C。

D

The 2020 Nobel Prize in literature has been awarded to former U.S. Poet Laureate (桂冠诗人) Louise Gluck. The prize committee mentioned “her unmistakable poetic voice that with plain beauty makes individual existence universal”. Being the first American woman to win the award since Toni Morrison in 1993, Gluck, 77, joins a list of literary giants and previous Nobelists who include, in this century, Canadian short-story master Alice Munro, Chinese magical-realist Mo Yan, etc.

Gluck’s works include 12 collections of poetry and a couple of volumes of essays on literary writing. “All are characterized by trying hard to achieve clarity. Childhood and family life, the close relationship with parents and brothers or sisters is a theme that has remained central to her,” Anders Olsson, the chairman of the Nobel Committee for Literature, said. “She seeks the universal, and in this she takes inspiration from myths (神话) and classical themes,” Olsson added, citing her 2006 collection Averno, which the committee described as “masterly” for its “visionary interpretation of the myth of Persephone’s fall into hell in the captivity of Hades, the god of death”.

As a professor at Yale and a resident of Cambridge, Gluck also served as U.S. Poet Laureate from 2003 to 2004 and is no stranger to awards. She won the Pulitzer Prize in 1993 for her collection of poems titled The Wild Iris, in which “she describes the extraordinary return of life after winter in the poem Snowdrops,” the Nobel literature committee said Thursday. She also won the 2014 National Book Award for poetry for Faithful and Virtuous Night. In 2016, President Obama awarded the National Humanities Medal to Gluck in a White House ceremony.

The publicity-shy Gluck did not immediately make any comment about the latest honor for her body of work, which lasts more than half a century. In a recent interview, sh e acknowledged that prizes can make “existence in the world easier” but did not amount to the immortality (不朽) of a true artist.

12. What do we know about Gluck in Paragraph 1?

A. She shared her works with other literary figures.

B. She won the Nobel Prize for her special literary style.

C. She has been awarded Poet Laureate many times.

D. She is less well-known than Chinese novelist Mo Yan.

13. Gluck’s poems mainly focus on __________.

A. daily life.

B. quiet countryside.

C. classical myths.

D. successful careers.

14. What is the purpose of paragraph 3?

A. To show Gluck’s contributions to literature.

B. To prov e Gluck’s strong interest in writing.

C. To present Gluck’s outstanding achievements.

D. To stress Gluck’s influence on other poets.

15. How does Gluck feel about the honor she has received?

A. She is extremely proud of it.

B. She takes it very seriously.

C. She deserves a higher reward.

D. She doesn’t value it greatly.

【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. D

【解析】

【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了首位获得诺贝尔文学奖的美国女性——格拉克，介绍了她的作品和成就。

【12题详解】

细节理解题。根据文章第一段“The prize committee mentioned “her unmistakable poetic voice that with plai n beauty makes individual existence universal”.”（评奖委员会提到“她以朴素的美发出了明确无误的诗意之声，使个人存在具有普遍性”。）可知，她因其独特的文学风格而获得诺贝尔奖。故选B项。

【13题详解】

细节理解题。根据文章第二段“All are characterized by trying hard to achieve clarity. Childhood and family life, the close relationship with parents and brothers or sisters is a theme that has remained central to her”（所有这些都以努力实现清晰为特征。童年和家庭生活，与父母和兄弟姐妹的亲密关系一直是她的核心主题）可知，格拉克的诗主要集中在日常生活上。故选A项。

【14题详解】

推理判断题。根据文章第三段“As a professor at Yale and a resident of Cambridge, Gluck also served as U.S. Poet Laureate from 2003 to 2004 and is no stranger to awards. She won the Pulitzer Prize in 1993 for her collection of poems titled The Wild Iris, in which “she describes the extraordinary return of life after winter in the poem Snowdrops,” the Nobel literature committ ee said Thursday. She also won the 2014 National Book Award for poetry for Faithful and Virtuous Night. In 2016, President Obama awarded the National Humanities Medal to Gluck in a White House ceremony.”（作为耶鲁大学的教授和剑桥大学的居民，格拉克还在2003年至2004年期间担任美国桂冠诗人，对获奖并不陌生。她的诗集《野鸢尾》于1993年获得普利策奖。周四，诺贝尔文学委员会称，“她在诗《雪花莲》中描述了冬天之后生命的非凡回归。”她还凭借《忠贞之夜》获得了2014年美国国家图书奖诗歌奖。2016年，奥巴马总统在白宫的一个仪式上为格拉克颁发了国家人文奖章。）可推断，第三段目的主要是展示格拉克的杰出成就。故选C项。

【15题详解】

细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“The publicity-shy Gluck did not immediately make any comment about the

latest honor for her body of work, which lasts more than half a century.”（格拉克一向不愿在公众面前露面，但她并未立即对最新获得的这项荣誉做出任何评论。这项荣誉是她的众多作品获得的，已经持续了半个多世纪。）可知，她并不十分重视自己获得的荣誉。故选D项。

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。

Have you ever found yourself saying “I’ll never do that again”, only to find yourself doing the exact same thing just a short time later? _____16_____ It seems all of us have repeated some of our mistakes at one time or another. The good news is that you can take steps to learn from your mistakes.

Admit your mistakes.

Don’t blame (责备) anyone or anything else. Don’t try to hide your mistake or pretend it didn’t happen. Admitting mistakes does not make you look weak. _____17_____ When you admit mistakes, you help develop a culture of open communication and a willingness to improve by showing that you want to learn from the mistake.

Ask yourself questions.

Even though you don’t want to face your mistakes, thinking about them carefully can be helpful. Ask yourself a few questions. What went wrong? What could I do better next time? What did I learn from this?

___18___ Seeing your answers on paper can help you think more logically about your experience.

Keeping feeling sorry for your mistakes won’t help you. _____19_____ Make a plan that will help you avoid making a similar mistake. Be as detailed as possible but remain flexible since your plan may need to be changed.

【答案】16. B 17. C 18. F 19. G 20. A

【解析】

【分析】这是一篇说明文。即使时时告诫自己，人们也常常重复相同的错误。文章给出了几条建议，让人们可以从自己的错误中学习。

【16题详解】

根据上文“Have you ever found yourself saying “I’ll never do that again”, only to find yourself doing the exact same thing just a short time later?”（你曾经发现自己说了‘我以后再也不那样做了’，却发现自己在一段时间后还是做相同的事情吗？）和下文“It seems all of us have repeated some of our mistakes at one time or another.”（似乎我们所有人都会在某些时候重复我们的一些错误）可推知，设空处可能陈述其实重复犯同样错误的人不只你一人。B项“如果是这样，你不是一个人。”符合语境，即对上文问题进行回答，也开启下文。故选B。

【17题详解】

根据上文“Admitting mistakes does not make you look weak.”（承认错误不会让你看起来很弱小）可推知，设空处可能陈述承认错误不仅不会让你看起来很弱小，它还会让你看起来很强大。C项“事实上，它会让你更强大。”符合语境，weak和strong是反义词复现。故选C。

【18题详解】

根据上文“Ask yourself a few questions. What went wrong? What could I do better next time? What did I learn from this?”（问你自己一些问题。什么错了？我下次把什么做得更好？我从这件事得到什么教训？）和下文“Seeing your answers on paper can help you think more logically about your experience.”（看着纸上你写的答案能够帮你更有逻辑地思考你的经历。）可推知，设空处建议人们把以上几个问题的答案写下来。F项“写下你的答案，这样你将把情况看得更清楚。”符合语境。故选F。

【19题详解】

根据上文“Keeping feeling sorry for you r mistakes won’t help you.”（一直为自己的错误感到遗憾对你没有帮助。）和下文“Make a plan that will help you avoid making a similar mistake.”（制定一个计划将有助于你避免犯同样的错误。）可推知，设空处可能建议人们花时间为将来做打算，而非一味的后悔。G项“花时间想想将来怎么做的更好是重要的。”符合语境，呼应小标题内容“制定一个计划”。故选G。

【20题详解】

设空处为本段小标题。根据下文“Sometimes people will point out your mistakes. Find someone who is wise and reliable and who is willing to listen to your explanations of what you’ve tried so far. If you can ask for advice from an expert, that couldn’t be better.”（有时，人们会指出你的错误。找一个明智可靠的，愿意倾听你对目前所有努力做出解释的人。如果你能求助于一个专家，那就再好不过了。）可知，本段建议人们求助他人。A项“向他人求助。”可以作为本段小标题。故选A。
