Where is the text most likely from?‎ A. A book review. B. A science fiction.‎ C. A popular magazine. D. A government report.‎ B Some psychologists say that community art — art made to be displayed free of charge in a particular community — can make a big difference.‎ Unlike the random graffiti （涂鸦）that many people consider an eyesore, community art can bring people together and encourage respect. In the U.S. city of Philadelphia, for example, psychologists are doing a citywide project where mental health patients work with average people to paint murals（壁画）. The aim of this project is to reduce the mental illness and promote a new dialogue about people who struggle with these issues.‎ Art also makes neighborhoods more attractive and has a unique ability to open people up. Neighbors can share comments with one another about a recently painted mural, which can challenge their prejudices and open their eyes to the world.‎ Businesses can also be promoted by community art. In Fort Smith, a town in the U.S. state of Arkansas, artists from around the globe came together to paint murals. One of the goals of the project was to expand the town's cultural offerings in order to attract more visitors. Not only locals but also tourists were drawn to see the murals. The money they spent while visiting the town benefited local businesses.‎ Generous financial support is provided for community art projects in many cities and towns. In the UK, the Arts Council England has invested nearly half a million dollars in community art. Some of it, for example, has paid for a new exhibition space created inside an old mill in the town of Brierfield. In the U.S., an organization called the Knight Foundation has invested millions of dollars in community projects, including many that focus on art.‎ ‎24. What is the purpose of the community art project in Philadelphia?‎ A. To replace random graffiti.‎ B. To deal with the issues about mental illnesses.‎ C. To promote dialogues about art issues.‎ D. To encourage respect for psychologists and fine arts.‎ ‎25. How does community art open people up?‎ A. By changing people' s views on prejudices.‎ B. By giving new life to traditional murals.‎ C. By providing a subject for conversation.‎ D. By making neighborhoods more attractive.‎ ‎26. What does the text indicate about towns like Fort Smith?‎ A. They can profit from art economically.‎ B. They provide inexpensive courses in art.‎ C. They've placed some restrictions on art.‎ D. They borrow art from other communities.‎ ‎27. What do we know about the community art in the UK?‎ A. It is limited to rich communities.‎ B. It has the support of the government.‎ C. It started from a mill in Brierfield.‎ D. It is paid for by the Knight Foundation.‎ C One rainy afternoon, I was on a crosstown bus when a young woman jumped on. She had a child with her who was about three or four years old. The bus was full, bumpy （颠簸的），and it soon got noisy, as her kid began crying — he was upset that he couldn't sit next to his mother. She looked embarrassed.‎ Then another woman, a little older, stood up and moved so that the mother and child could sit together. The mum smiled as a thank-you. And then three words came out of the older woman's mouth that raised the entire energy of that bus ride：‎ ‎"I've been there.”‎ Simple, undramatic, and honest. In that moment, it seemed to unite the diverse people of the city. Why? Because almost all experiences are shared human experiences. They're universal. We forget that as we go through life, focused on our own troubles and needs — which are actually less unique than we think.‎ Sometimes painful past experiences prevent us from wanting to open up to others because we don't want to revisit our own history. But a wonderful way to honor your past hurt is to help comfort another's current pain.‎ When I was a little girl, we lived on donations from local families and clothing from the " lost ‎ and found" baskets. It was shameful for me at the time — I lived in fear of being caught in a friend' s cast-off item.‎ Even when it was warmer, I refused to take off a layer in the classroom for this reason. Now I don't meet people who are in this exact situation, but I do notice when someone is struggling with financial shame or feels less than other people they meet. And I'm quick to say some version of, "I've been there."‎ Can the essence of these three words help you make a small difference right now? It can be as simple as volunteering your seat, sharing some helpful advice, or even lightening the mood with a joke when you notice that someone's uncomfortable — because we're all in this together.‎ ‎28. What influence did the older woman's words have on the people around?‎ A. Causing discomfort. B. Breaking long silence.‎ C. Creating a heated debate. D. Inspiring common feelings.‎ ‎29. What does the author think of personal troubles and needs?‎ A. They are mostly shared experiences.‎ B. They don't really matter to anyone'‎ C. They will be forgotten with time.‎ D. They are unique to each individual.‎ ‎30. Why did the author refuse to take off the coat in the classroom?‎ A. Because she had the same sweater with others.‎ B. Because she stole the sweater from someone'‎ C. Because she liked wearing the coat in summer.‎ D. Because she felt embarrassed wearing others' clothes.‎ ‎31.What's the best title for the text?‎ A. Painful Experiences Are No Big Deal B. The Best Way to Honor Your Past Hurt C. True Happiness Comes from Helping Others D. Three Little Words That Bring Us Together D Do Cyber Schools Make the Grade?‎ Students in Caldwell, Idaho, can attend class in their pajamas!‎ At Vallivue Virtual Academy, courses are taught online. Students work at home with parents, who serve as learning coaches. A certified teacher oversees the students' progress.‎ The cyber school was launched as a free option for students in kindergarten through grade 8 who have trouble succeeding in the district's traditional public school. Supporters of the program say that virtual learning can help students work at their own pace. If students struggle with subjects, they can take those courses online and spend more time on them. Valerie VanSelous, a teacher from Hopewell Township, N.J.，agrees. "Teachers, students, and parents need to accept new technology and not be afraid of it. Offering different teaching aids just might be the key to unlocking a student' s potential. "‎ Some also believe that attending virtual school can prepare students for college and for work after graduation. "We need to be responsible for working on our own,” says Angela Goscilo, a senior from Pound Ridge, N.Y. "We need to develop technology skills that will help us in whatever we do. Getting an early start is a good idea."‎ Not everyone gives cyber schools a passing grade. however. Some educators argue that online learning makes it hard for students to make friends. Payton Mcdonough, 13, a seventh grader from Glencoe, m., agrees. " I don't know how I could sit at a computer all day without actually interacting with my peers and teachers," he says.‎ In addition, virtual schools don’t have enough structure. Students who take online courses can set their own schedules, which will cause problems for students who have trouble staying motivated.‎ Many parents also feel that cyber schools put unrealistic time demands on them because they have to oversee their kids' daily work. Many of them have full-time jobs. How are they going to run their children's education, excel in their jobs, and take care of their other responsibilities at home?‎ ‎32. What is the cyber school intended for?‎ A. Reducing the time students spend online.‎ B. Helping those who struggle in traditional schools.‎ C. Allowing teachers to work at their own pace.‎ D. Encouraging students to learn about technology.‎ ‎33. What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 4?‎ A. Not everyone approves of cyber schools.‎ B. Not everyone has attended a cyber school.‎ C. Not everyone has given cyber schools a test.‎ D. Not everyone cares about students in cyber schools.‎ ‎34. How do working parents feel about overseeing their kids' daily work?‎ A. It's worthwhile.‎ B. It's unnecessary.‎ C. It's demanding.‎ D. It's discouraging.‎ ‎35. What is the main idea of the text?‎ A. Students in Caldwell can attend class at home every day.‎ B. There are various arguments for and against virtual schools.‎ C. It's important for students to learn to work in the virtual world.‎ D. Cyber schools are better than traditional schools in many ways.‎ 第二节（共5小题;每小题2，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放佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Why Do You Mishear Popular Song Lyrics（歌词）？‎ When Lil Nas X's "Old Town Road" topped the charts in early 2019, it seemed like you couldn't go five minutes without hearing "I’m gonna take my horse to the old town road . " But a significant subgroup caught this instead “ I’m gonna take my horse to the hotel room. 36 We've been misunderstanding song lyrics for decades, Elton John's “hold me closer, Tony Danza" —er, "tiny dancer"— included。. These modem musical mishearings even have their own name： mondegreens.‎ ‎ 37 When noise hits our eardrums, tiny hairs convert it into an electric signal, which travels through the auditory nerve to the temporal lobe （颗叶）. 38 If the sounds are clear and the terms familiar, we then "hear" a mostly accurate translation of what someone is saying. But music can drown out lyrics, and singers can pronounce words with extra ability. The sounds in songs are often muddy and unclear. In this case, our brains struggle to find what makes sense. ‎ In that panic, our head reacts by offering up similar-sounding （but far more familiar） phrases, says Thomas Ethofer, a professor of psychotherapy in Germany. For example, if the mind can't firstly comprehend taking a horse to an old town road, it offers up an alternative to quickly solve the problem. 39 ‎ In fact, according to Ethofer, previous knowledge of the mondegreen will make you more likely to hear it. 40 From a psychological aspect, he says, perhaps these mix-ups are so common because we enjoy resolving unclearness. Regardless — the sky, this guy, tiny dancer, Tony Danza, old town road, hotel room — they are all still songs we'll listen to on repeat.‎ A. This was far from a first.‎ B. No wonder you will make this mistake.‎ C. How can you listen to something more accurately?‎ D. There, it turns nerve firings into words with meaning.‎ E. That's because your brain is already prepared for that version.‎ F. That translation can stick, even after we learn the correct lyrics.‎ G. So why does the Jimi Hendrix lyric "kiss the sky" often become "kiss this guy"?‎ 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节,满分45分）‎ 第一节（共20小题;每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选岀可以填入空白处的最 佳选项。‎ My past has caught up with me. It happened five years back when a new friend 41 my digital neighborhood. She knew me in my other 42 before my career in television. And did this young woman have a long 43 . ‎ ‎"Hello, Mrs. Luginbill," said the Facebook, which immediately caught my 44 since I'm Lucy to everyone nowadays. " That's 45 I remember you as a kid from Southgate Elementary," Jennifer said about using the 46 greeting. "I think I was in first grade."‎ Suddenly, as if it were yesterday, I saw the little group of girls gathering around me. I was the "Duty” on playground, the 47 who kept order with a whistle when I wasn't 48 in the classroom. It wasn't a 49 job, standing in the cold winter during break, but it 50 "pocket money" to help after our move from California. A warm coat had been a "must have” 51 when our finances were 52 And in those years, the east side of Washington state saw some of the ‎ ‎53 winters.‎ Jennifer, the little girl has grown up. She remembered the wild weather — and my coat, too. "It was furry, and the coat almost 54 a happy life we might long for. You were our chosen movie star.” Funny how 55 my viewpoint was back then. I saw little children wanting 56 and hugs — and needing their exercise, too. Eventually, I would drive them away to 57."It is like as a kid you want to stand in someone's light — especially if you 58 them," her Facebook message read.‎ It was a lesson that I have 59 close even now: What we do today — no matter what our role may be — can 60 brighten another's heart for a lifetime.‎ ‎41.

They came back out with a mix of bones from the unfortunate 61 (creature) that had fallen into the natural "death trap". None of those bones belonged to the extinct ape, but the team was in for a surprise: The mix included a 22,000-year-old lower jaw from 62 ancient panda. And within its worn edges, the jaw contained 63 is now the world’s oldest sample of panda DNA. Moreover, the genetic evidence 64 (show) that the bone comes from a 65 (previous) unknown lineage of giant panda.
