B Although May 24 was a working day, thousands of people wearing black went to the Mingyangshan Funeral Home in Hunan province to present flowers and bunches of rice plants to honor Yuan Longping. The top rice scientist, referred to as the “father of hybrid rice”, died of organ failure at age 91 on May 22. Born in 1930 in Beijing, Yuan witnessed the despair of people who lost their land they lived on in an era of war. So when he applied for university, he decided to study agriculture. But his parents worried it would be tough and tiring. However, Yuan said: “Having enough food was peoples basic needs,” noted Peoples Daily. Yuan set out to solve the problem. He began researching hybrid rice in 1964, succeeding in producing the worlds first high-yielding (高产的) hybrid rice strain (品种) in 1973. More importantly, he was selfless when it came to sharing his research to benefit people globally. To date, his hybrid rice strain has been planted in large areas of India, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Vietnam, the US and Brazil. “Professor Yuan was incredibly humble, never seeking fame or praise, instead focusing only on hard work and results that could help remove poverty and lift people out of hunger,” Kenneth M. Quinn, president of the World Food Prize Foundation, told China Daily. Yuan could make such achievements partly because he believed in the power of science as a harvest multiplier, noted Peoples Daily. The UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs mourned (悼念) his passing on Twitter, saying, “Yuan passed away today at 91 but his mission to end hunger lives on.” 24. What can we learn from the passage? A. People went to Yuans funeral during weekend. B. Yuan began researching hybrid rice in his twenties. C. A great many people have benefited from Yuans research. D. Yuan chose to study agriculture after graduating from university. 25. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to? A. University life.B. Agricultural work.C. Scientific research.D. Hybrid rice planting. 26. What may contribute to Yuans achievements according to the text? A. His teachers encouragement.B. His belief in science. C. His parents support.D. His simple lifestyle. 27. Which of the following can be used to describe Yuan? A. Devoted and generous.B. Enthusiastic and proud. C. Bookish and positive.D. Capable and passive. C “I think kawaii, or cute feelings, can remind us of human connection that we sometimes forget,” says Hiroshi Nittono, director of the Cognitive Psychophysiology Laboratory at Osaka University. “Viewing cute images of baby animals gives us a desire to act tenderly and responsibly to protect them,” he explains. “This idea holds that weak and defenseless but cute things set off caregiving behavior in the beholder.” Cute things make us feel protective, and when were protective, we might be naturally more focused. Engineers, advertisers, and developers have taken advantage of this phenomenon, using kawaii to control user experience and consumer behavior. Researchers call it cute engineering. Its a way to harness positive feelings and emotions to motivate (激励) and shape the users behavior in a positive way. Sometimes cute engineering is subtle (微妙的), but its often quite obvious. Engineers use kawaii in the field of robotics, for instancethe cuter the robot, the more humans will want to engage with it. Theres also the iMac, which over the years, Apple designed to be subtly adorable (可爱的). It persuaded traditionally non-computer users to buy into the world of computing so that they could sell more units. Theres also “cute filtering (萌物滤镜)”, a component of cute engineering that allows consumers to personalize their kawaii experience, just like the way iMac users could choose the color of their units. In this way, users can create their own kawaii experience. Using a “cute filter”, users can freely choose the cuteness parameters (参数) such as color, size, motion, smell, and taste to adjust their desired cute output. 28. Why would people like to protect cute baby animals according to Hiroshi Nittono? A. People have no choice but to do it. B. People are taught to protect animals. C. Cute things motivate people to protect them. D. Cute baby animals are too weak to protect themselves. 29. What does the underlined word “harness” probably mean? A. Focus on.B. Figure out.C. Throw light on.D. Make use of. 30. Why was the iMac designed to be adorable? A. The iMac could shape peoples preference. B. Computer producers could make more money. C. Engineers could design computers to their taste. D. Consumers would like to have more kawaii experience. 31. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Power of Kawaii.B. Protect Cute Animals. C. A New Discovery.D. Control Cute Feelings. D Climate change is making people sick, according to a pair of influential reports on the connections between global warming and health. Dr. Renee Sala, an emergency room physician at Massachusetts General Hospital, says governments who want to support public health must stop financially supporting the fossil fuel industry. “Climate change and air pollution have the same root causethe burning of fossil fuels,” she says. Longer, more intense heat waves are a particularly deadly effect of global warming around the world, and older people are most at risk. Over the past 20 years, the number of people over 65 who have died as a result of extreme heat has increased more than 50%, the Lancet report says. At least 296,000 people died because of heat in 2018, the most recent year for which global data are available. According to the same survey, more countries are providing climate and weather information to doctors and hospitals. Helping hospitals and doctors prepare for climate-driven disasters is increasingly important. Sala says the 2020 pandemic (疫情) made clear how ill-equipped the public health equipment is to handle major disasters. She says the failures of the health system this year in the US should be a wake-up call to spend more money protecting health, especially in communities where poor people have been exposed to pollution and denied adequate health care. Dr. Georges Benjamin, director of the American Public Health Association, says the global economic recovery from the pandemic is an opportunity to adapt to climate change. For example, urban areas without green space are increasingly dangerous heat islands that trap hot air and pollution. Planting trees, reducing highway and industrial pollution and investing in new housing are all ways to address (应对) climate change, he argues. “Its preventable,” Benjamin says. “We dont have to live this way.” 32. How does the author develop the third paragraph? A. By giving examples.B. By listing figures. C. By making comparisons.D. By proving causes and effects. 33. Why is climate and weather information provided to doctors and hospitals? A. It improves health care for doctors. B. It helps them to prevent climate change. C. It is a wake-up call to improve the health system. D. It can prepare them for the climate-related disasters. 34. What can we mainly know from the last paragraph? A. Peoples health is connected with climate change. B. Economic developments threaten the environment. C. Action should be taken to deal with climate change. D. The 2020 pandemic offers a chance to adapt to climate change. 35. Which part of a newspaper is this text probably taken from? A. Society.B. Technology.C. Health.D. Economy. 第二节（共第二节（共 5 小题；每小题小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分分，满分 12.5 分）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。选项中有两处为多余选项。 Learning about Rainfall around the World We all need rain Rain is a necessity around the world. Whatever your feelings, we all need rain. On other planets, it may rain methane (甲烷), iron or sulphuric acid (硫酸). 36 Wettest and driest 37 Its difficult to work out precisely which place on Earth is the wettest, but some contenders (竞争者) include the Indian Himalayas, Hawaii and the town of Tutunendo in Colombia, which can receive 25 meters of rain per year. At the other extreme, the driest place on Earth is the Antarctic, where rainfall is rare and winds are cold, strong and dry. Its going to rain 38 In different cultures, owls, blackbirds, swallows and peacocks and in the US state of Texas, even toads can predict weather change. 39 Its not surprising that ancient people respected the rain and developed myths (神话) connected to animals to explain it. The San people of South Africa say stormy weather is brought by the dangerous rain-bull escaping from his cave, but that soft rain the gift of the gentle rain-cow. 40 Its wings cause thunder as it carries messages across the sky. And the strangest rain myth? In Thailand, a breed of cat called the cloud cat is carried out into the fields and water is sprinkled on its face to bring rain. With global warming making many parts of the world drier, those cats could come in handy! A. Rain and animals. B. Animals and ancient people. C. Animals are believed to predict rain. D. Rain has different functions and meanings. E. Some places are luckier than others when it comes to rain. F. Peoples in North America use strong images of the powerful rain-bird. G. But, in our universe, only on Earth does fresh water fall from the sky to sustain life. 第三部分第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分英语知识运用（共两节，满分 30 分）分） 第一节第一节 完形填空（共完形填空（共 15 小题，每小题小题，每小题 1 分，满分分，满分 15 分）分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和 D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 The first time my grandma came to visit us in Canada, she was a little upset.
