She first noticed signs of her dad’s developing dementia(痴呆) when she moved to Nottingham. She said, "Dad was a doctor, so he knew exactly what had happened to him, but people try to hide it when they are ill. Then, I came home for my 21st birthday and arranged to meet him, but he never showed up as he’d forgotten. That’s when I knew something serious had happened."‎ So, aged 21, she decided to leave university and look after him herself. She lived close by, popping in every day to make sure he was eating, and that the house was tidy, before heading off to her work.‎ Besides challenging moments, there was a time when looking after her dad was a pure joy. "We’d wake up,I’d ask what he wanted to do that day, and however ridiculous the adventure is, off we’d go."‎ Sadly, in 2009, 5 years later, Laura lost her father. Before he died, Laura went to a hospital appointment with him, where doctors mentioned that his form of Alzheimer’s disease was genetic meaning there was a fifty-fifty chance that she had inherited it. For several years Laura agonised over whether to be tested, finally finding out in August 2017 that she has the APP gene, meaning that, like him, she will develop the condition within a decade.‎ At first, she struggled, feeling as if her life lacked purpose. Then, during a sleepless night in the summer of 2018, she decided at around ‎2 a.m. to enter the 2019 London Marathon sponsored by the charities Alzheimer’s Society and Alzheimer’s Research UK.‎ She hoped to start the conversation around early-onset Alzheimer’s disease and to encourage people to talk about it more openly." I remember when Dad was ill, people wouldn’t know how to react, but I want to be honest and open," she added. "The more information we can get, the less of a taboo(忌讳) we will feel. That said, the support I’ve received so far after going public has been amazing — that’s what is carrying me through."‎ ‎21.The underlined word "agonised" in paragraph 4 probably means　　　.　 ‎ A. excited B. struggled C. shocked D. delighted ‎22.Laura started the open talk in the hope of　　　. ‎ A. getting people to talk about Alzheimer’s disease openly B. earning some money to help treat her Alzheimer’s disease C. making herself stronger to fight against Alzheimer’s disease D. raising funds for charities Alzheimer’s Society and Alzheimer’s disease Research ‎UK ‎23.Which words can best describe Laura?‎ A. Caring and positive. B. Careful and honest.‎ C. Patient and cautious. D. Devoted and modest.‎ B Steven Stein likes to follow garbage trucks. His strange habit makes sense when you consider that he’s an environmental scientist who studies how to reduce litter, including things that fall off garbage trucks as they drive down the road. What is even more interesting is that one of Stein’s jobs is defending an industry behind the plastic shopping bag.‎ Americans use more than 100 billion thin film plastic bags every year. So many end up in tree branches or along highways that a growing number of cities do not allow them at checkouts(收银台). The bags are prohibited in some 90 cities in California, including Los Angeles. Eyeing these headwinds, plastic-bag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their products are not as bad for the planet as most people assume.‎ Among the bag makers’ arguments: many cities with bans still allow shoppers to purchase paper bags, which are easily recycled but require more energy to produce and transport. And while plastic bags may be ugly to look at, they represent a small percentage of all garbage on the ground today.‎ The industry has also taken aim at the product that has appeared as its replacement: reusable shopping bags. The stronger a reusable bag is, the longer its life and the more plastic-bag use it cancels out. However, longer-lasting reusable bags often require more energy to make. One study found that a cotton bag must be used at least 131 times to be better for the planet than plastic.‎ Environmentalists don’t dispute(质疑)these points. They hope paper bags will be banned someday too and want shoppers to use the same reusable bags for years.‎ ‎24.What has Steven Stein been hired to do?‎ A. Help increase grocery sales. B. Recycle the waste material.‎ C. Stop things falling off trucks. D. Argue for the use of plastic bags.‎ ‎25.What does the word "headwinds" in paragraph 2 refer to?‎ A. Bans on plastic bags. B. Effects of city development.‎ C. Headaches caused by garbage. D. Plastic bags hung in trees.‎ ‎26.What is a disadvantage of reusable bags according to plastic-bag makers?‎ A. They are quite expensive. B. Replacing them can be difficult.‎ C. They are less strong than plastic bags. D. Producing them requires more energy.‎ ‎27.What is the best title for the text?‎ A. Plastic, Paper or Neither B. Industry, Pollution and Environment C. Recycle or Throw Away D. Garbage Collection and Waste Control ‎ C Bacteria are an annoying problem for astronauts. The microorganisms(‎ 微生物)from our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station, so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week. How is NASA overcoming this very tiny big problem? It’s turning to a bunch of high school kids. But not just any kids. It is depending on NASA HUNCH high school classrooms, like the one science teachers Gene Gordon and Donna Himmelberg lead at Fairport High School in Fairport‎, ‎New York.‎ HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers. For the past two years, Gordon’s students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity, and they think they’re close to a solution(解决方案). "We don’t give the students any breaks. They have to do it just like NASA engineers," says Florence Gold, a project manager.‎ ‎"There are no tests," Gordon says. "There is no graded homework. There almost are no grades, other than ‘Are you working towards your goal?’ Basically, it’s ‘I’ve got to produce this product and then, at the end of the year, present it to NASA. ‘ Engineers come and really do an in-person review, and... it’s not a very nice thing at times. It’s a hard business review of your product."‎ Gordon says the HUNCH program has an impact(影响) on college admissions and practical life skills. "These kids are so absorbed in their studies that I just sit back. I don’t teach." And that annoying bacteria? Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem, readying a workable solution to test in space.‎ ‎28.What is the purpose of the HUNCH program?‎ A. To strengthen teacher-student relationships.‎ B. To sharpen students’ communication skills.‎ C. To allow students to experience zero gravity.‎ D. To link space technology with school education.‎ ‎29.What do the NASA engineers do for the students in the program?‎ A. Check their product. B. Guide project designs.‎ C. Adjust work schedules. D. Grade their homework.‎ ‎30.What is the best title for the text?‎ A. NASA: The Home of Astronauts B. Space: The Final Homework Frontier C. Nature: An Outdoor Classroom D. HUNCH: A College Admission Reform 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分20分）‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白出的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ You know the drill when it comes to losing weight: take in fewer calories, and burn more calories. ____31____.If you ‘re trying to drop a few pounds fast, these interesting tips will make it easy for you to lose the weight quickly.‎ Eat in front of mirrors and you will lose weight One study finds that eating in front of mirrors reduces the amount people eat by nearly ‎ one-third. Having to look yourself in the eye reflects back some of your own inner standards and goals. 32 ‎ Sniff a banana or an apple when you feel hungry ‎ 33 . Researchers find that the more frequently people sniff, the less hungry they are and the more weight they lose----an average of 30 pounds each. One theory is that sniffing the food tricks the brain into thinking you are actually eating it.‎ ‎34 ‎ Whether that is a floor, a couple of windows, or your car, a 150-pound person will burn about four calories for every minute spent cleaning. Scrub for 30 minutes and you could work off approximately 120 calories, the same number in a half- cup of frozen yogurt. ‎ ‎ Stare at the colour blue.‎ There's a good reason you won't see many fast-food restaurants decorated in blue; Believe it or not, it helps to control an appetite. So serve up dinner on blue plates, dress in blue while you eat, and cover your table with a blue tablecloth. 35 Studies find they encourage eating.‎ A. You might feel silly, but it works. B. Therefore, adjust your eating habits.‎ C. Wash something thoroughly once a week.‎ D. That’s all it takes to lose as many pounds as possible. ‎ E. On the contrary, avoid red、yellow、and orange in your dining areas F. In other words, it reminds you of why you're trying to lose weight in the first place.‎ G. But you also know that most diets and quick weight-loss plans don’t work as promised 第三部分 语言运用（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，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。‎ Last Sunday, there was no dirt in the air, only bright spring sunshine and a clear blue sky.

In the ten short years of his life, Andy had only ever seen snow on three occasions. Due to the extreme heat this year, the villagers of Sundial were rather surprised when a snowman walked down from the mountains and into their tiny village.‎ The snowman wore a thick white coat and a large blue hat over his round head. The villagers stared at the man made of snow. "Is he a monster?" They whispered among themselves, afraid that he would attack them. The snowman, however, just wandered into the library, grabbed some books,‎ ‎ and began reading.‎ Andy, ever a curious boy, walked up to the snowman. "Why are you wearing such thick clothes? Are you cold?" The snowman shook his head. "Want to go play?" Andy asked. The snowman nodded and they spent the day running through the woods, playing hide-and-seek. As the sun set, the snowman waved goodbye to his little friend and left Sundial, passing by Andy’s home on his way back to the mountains.‎ Andy’s father, the village head, saw the snowman when he looked out of the window at the setting sun. Cold sweat dripped down his face. The following Sunday, he gave the villagers a very different meeting.‎ The next time the snowman came to the village, the people of Sundial were ready, armed with rocks and torches(火把). The strike was cruel. One of his coal eyes was knocked out, rolling down into the snowfield. As the snowman desperately tried to flee, Andy’s father struck him with a little torch, setting his coat on fire. The melting snowman rolled around, struggling to put out the blazing flames. As his melting body extinguished the flames, the snowman fled the village‎ of ‎Sundial.‎ ‎"Let him go,"Andy’s father said. "If he’s smart, he won’t come back." He turned around to find his son on his knees, crying. "It’s alright,son.

He followed the trail of melted snow up into the mountains. As he walked farther, the trail disappeared, fading into the snowfield. Shaking in the biting wind, the poor little boy walked through the icy mountains, searching for his friend, before collapsing from the cold. As he fell into unconsciousness, he felt someone pick him up. Andy opened his eyes with an effort, only to see the snowman carrying him in his wooden arms. "I’m sorry about the others," Andy whispered, managing a weak smile.‎ Paragraph 2:‎ The snowman walked into Sundial once more. Andy’s limp body was held in his wooden arms. Wrapped around Andy were the snowman’s coat and hat, given to the boy in an attempt to keep him warm. The snowman placed Andy at the feet of the villagers. Andy’s father threw down his torch and ran to his boy, looking at the snowman, tears in his eyes, "Thank you." The snowman walked away without saying a word, never to come back. ‎
