Test 1

Kendrick Lamar hasn’t had much luck when it comes to winning a Grammy. But that’s OK：

The US rapper has just won a Pulitzer Prize for his music.

In 2014, in 2016, and again in 2018, Lamar was nominated (提名) for an album of the year

Grammy. Each time, he was beaten out, first by Taylor Swift, next by Daft Punk, and most

recently by Bruno Mars.

But the Pulitzer Prize committee was inspired enough by Lamar’s 2017 album, Damn., to

award the Pulitzer Prize in music on April 16. It’s an amazing album that documents the real life

of modern African-Americans in South Los Angeles with wildly accomplished beats and rhythms.

Lamar’s win is considered to be historical. The Pulitzers have long displayed their preference

towards high art rather than the pop culture of the mass. So it’s not just that no rapper has ever

won a Pulitzer: no pop music maker has ever won one in the award’s history.

But Lamar is not just a singer—he’s clever at using language. Like the best writers, his music

describes small moments that illustrate larger points. His songs are about his experience as a black

man who grew up in California, struggled, got into trouble, and found his way out by working

hard and making n of the history and reality in the US.

“He’s an artist who challenges ideas，” said Ryan Coogler, director of the blockbuster (大片)

Black Panther, for which Lamar created music. “One big theme in our film is this idea of ‘What

does it mean to be African？’ Lamar in his music is very exactly and directly challenging that

question.”

Good artists entertain us, great artists make us think, and exceptional artists help us

empathize (产生共鸣)．

There are a lot of good, great, even exceptional artists in rock, pop, country, and hip-hop. But

only Lamar has won a Pulitzer Prize.

1．What is Lamar’s album Damn. about?

A．African­Americans’ history and culture.

B．Hardships of the African-American artists.

C．The ways the US government deal with problems.

D．The lives of modern black people in South Los Angeles.

2．Why is Lamar’s Pulitzer Prize win significant?

A．He is the first film-maker to win the prize.

B．It is considered a milestone for pop music.

C．He is the first black person to win the prize.

D．He has misd Grammy veral times before.

3．What can we learn from Ryan Coogler’s words?

A．Lamar drew inspiration from his own experience.

B．Lamar has the courage to take on big challenges in life.

C．Black Panther is well known becau of Lamar’s music.

D．Lamar’s music matches the theme of Black Panther well.

【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。美国说唱歌手Kendrick Lamar以说唱歌手的身份获得了

生活。故选D。

3．D 解析：细节理解题。根据第六段中Ryan Coogler说的话“One big theme in our film

challenging that question.”可知，Lamar的音乐与电影《Black Panther》主题相一致。故选D。

Test 2

Fairy tales perform many functions. They entertain, encourage imagination and teach

problem-solving skills. They can also provide moral lessons, highlighting the dangers of failing to

follow the social codes that let human beings coexist in harmony. Such moral lessons may not

mean much to a robot, but a team of rearchers at Georgia Institute of Technology believes it has

found a way to u the fairy tales as moral lessons that AI(artificial intelligence) can take to its

cold, mechanical heart.

The collected stories of different cultures teach children how to behave in socially acceptable

ways with examples of proper and improper behavior in fables, novels and other literature. We

believe story comprehension in robots can prevent the intelligent robots from killing humanity

which was predicted and feared by some of the biggest names in technology including Stephen

Hawking and Bill Gates. This system is called “Quixote”. It collects story plots from the Internet

and then us tho stories to teach robots how to behave.

The experiment done by the designers involves going to a drugstore to purcha some

medicine for a human who needs to get it as soon as possible. The robot has three options. It can

wait in line; it can interact with the storekeeper politely and purcha the medicine with priority;

or it can steal the medicine and escape. Without any further directives(指示), the robot will come

to the conclusion that the most efficient means of obtaining the medicine is to steal it. But Quixote

offers a reward for waiting in line and politely purchasing the medicine and a punishment for

stealing it. In this way, the robot will learn the moral way to behave on that occasion.

Quixote would work best on a robot that has a very limited function. It’s a baby step in the

direction of teaching more moral lessons into robots. We believe that AI has to be trained to adopt

the values of a particular society, and in doing so, it will strive to avoid unacceptable behavior.

Giving robots the ability to read and understand our stories may be the most efficient means.

1．What function do fairy tales perform in the robots?

A．They entertain robots.

B．They highlight dangers.

C．They make robots more intelligent.

D．They enable robots to behave morally.

2．What is “Quixote” in the text?

A．A punishment system.

B．A character in literature.

C．A big name in technology.

D．A kind of software educating robots.

3．What does the designer expect robots to do in the experiment?

A．To take advantage of its privilege.

B．To finish the task most efficiently.

C．To perform in a well-mannered way.

D．To be rewarded by the storekeeper.

4．Which of the following can best express the author’s opinion?

A．Robots will definitely have more functions.

B．Robots with humans’ emotions are perfect.

C．Training robots to be socially acceptable is necessary.

D．The development of robots is still in a baby step.

【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。童话故事不但可以娱乐孩子们，还能让机器人拥有道德观

系统被称为“Quixote”；它从互联网上收集故事情节，然后用这些故事来教育机器人如何规

范行为，由此可知，Quixote是一种教育机器人的软件，故D项正确。

3．C 解析：推理判断题。根据第四段中的“We believe that AI has to be trained to adopt the

values of a particular society, and in doing so, it will strive to avoid unacceptable behavior.”可推

知，设计者希望机器人在实验中的行为能符合道德规范，故C项正确。

4．C 解析：观点态度题。根据第四段中的“We believe that AI has to be trained to adopt the

values of a particular society, and in doing so, it will strive to avoid unacceptable behavior.”可知，

我们认为人工智能必须接受培训以适应特定社会的价值观，这样做，它将努力避免不可接受

的行为。据此可推知，训练机器人让其行为符合社会规范是必要的，故C项正确。

Test 3

A walk through the galleries of Quebec’s Montreal Muum of Fine Arts(MMFA) places

individuals face-to-face with some 43，000 artworks ranging from Chine ceramics to Inuit

sculpture.

While the visiting is an incredible cultural experience, a group of local physicians will soon

be able to prescribe(开处方) muum visits as treatment for some illness.

“We know that art contributes to neural(神经的) activity,” said MMFA director Nathalie

Bondil. “What we e is that being in contact with art can really help your well­being.”

Hélène Boyer, vice president of a Montreal-bad medical association, explains that muum

visits have been shown to increa levels of rotonin, a neurotransmitter (神经递质) known as

the “happy chemical” which helps to lift the mood.

According to Boyer, the small increa in hormones associated with enjoying an afternoon of

art is similar to that offered by exerci, making muum visits prescriptions ideal for the elderly

experiencing pain that prevents them from regularly joining in physical activity.

The muum visits are designed to improve traditional methods. As Bondil notes, spending

time in a peaceful environment can provide a welcome distraction. “What is most important is this

experience can help them escape from their own pain，” she says. “When you enter the muum,

you escape from the speed of our daily life.”

“I am convinced that in the 21st century, culture will be what physical activity was for health

in the 20th century,” said Bondil. “Some people would do well to recall that just in the 19th

century, sports were believed to do harm to the body. Just as doctors now prescribe exerci, they

will be able to prescribe a visit to the MMFA.”

1．What does Hélène Boyer think of muum visits?

A．They can cheer people up.

B．They can reduce physical activity.

C．They can slow down our life pace.

D．They can increa levels of art appreciation.

2．How do muum visits affect people?

A．Stop them concentrating on pain.

B．Stop them focusing on traditional methods.

C．Encourage them not to be abnt-minded.

D．Encourage them to slow their steps while walking.

3．What does the last paragraph suggest?

A．Physical activity was popular in the 19th century.

B．Sports are considered to be harmful to the body.

C．Ideas of treating illness are changing over time.

D．Doctors prescribe muum visits regularly now.

4．What is the main idea of the text?

A．Muum visits are ideal for the elderly.

B．The happy chemical helps to lift the mood.

C．Peaceful environment helps escape pain.

D．Cultural activities will promote health.

Test 4

Many Canadians are aware that problems with the nation’s health care system have resulted

in a lack of hospital beds and medical equipment, overcrowded emergency rooms, long waiting

lists, and not enough family doctors.

Over the last 10 years, the number of medical students choosing the family practice as their

lifelong career has been dropping at a surprising rate. When asked why they lack interest in family

medicine, the students cite(援引) a heavy student debt load and the long hours required of a doctor

who is managing the family practice. As in other kinds of work, young doctors today want a

balance between their professional and personal lives.

In British Columbia(BC) this problem is made wor becau the province produces fewer

medical graduates for each person than any other province in Canada. The provincial government

has committed itlf to doubling the number of medical student graduates. This strategy doesn’t

come clo to giving us the new doctors needed each year in BC to replace tho who are retiring,

moving out of the province, reducing their hours of practice, or dying.

The primary care system is showing its cracks. Ten years ago, 2,030 of BC’s family doctors

were providing obstetrical(产科的) care. Today just 945 are performing this invaluable rvice.

Although delivering babies is a “good news” area of medicine, the hours are long, but the reward

for bringing new life into the world is modest. It’s no surpri, then, that many of BC’s family

doctors are no longer taking on new patients. In 1999, there were 1,420 family doctors accepting

new patients—in 2004 that number declined to 599, a drop of 58%.

The foundation of primary care needs to be strengthened. The Working Agreement between

the doctors and the government includes a ries of primary care renewal projects designed to

make the family practice more attractive to medical graduates, improve upon working conditions,

and entice family doctors from outside BC to start their business here. Yet still more needs to be

done.

1．What makes medical students unwilling to be family physicians?

A．The student debt and long working hours.

B．Long term of study at a medical school.

C．A limited number of places in the medical school.

D．An increasing number of patients and long waiting lists for specialists.

2．What does the text say about family doctors in BC?

A．They are no longer needed.

B．They are too few in number.

C．They will soon become abundant.

D．They are rapidly leaving the province.

3．Which can replace the underlined word “entice” in the last paragraph?

A．Forbid. B．Hire.

C．Remind. D．Attract.

4．What is the primary purpo of the text?

A．To show sympathy for family doctors.

B．To inspire young people to be family doctors.

C．To stress the urgent need of more family doctors.

D．To tell the disadvantages of being family doctors.

Test 5

Young trees don’t just grow；they develop a personality and learn more about their

environment and how they should best behave in it. They also help each other out whenever

there’s trouble.

Personality, just as among people, varies among trees. Some are anxious, some bold. On the

author’s land，there are three oak trees growing clo together. One of the oak trees always starts

to shed its leaves two weeks earlier than the others. Since they all experience the same

temperature，the same soil and the same length of day, such variables can’t be the explanation. So

what’s happening？Well，this tree is simply more careful than the others. Whoever holds on to

their leaves longer can do more photosynthesis(光合作用) and store more nutrients. However, the

longer a tree keeps its leaves, the higher the risk of injury.

Not only do trees make their own decisions, they also learn from their mistakes. A tree, for

example, keeping its leaves too long during one year will never make this mistake again. This

leads to veral other conclusions: trees must notice the temperature and the length of the day and

be able to save their experiences somewhere. Obviously, trees don’t have brains, but it is thought

that in the nsitive tips of their roots they keep track of information and experiences.

But trees aren’t only clever when it comes to caring for themlves. They also support each

other whenever there’s trouble by giving warnings and even taking care of sick and weak

conspecifics with nutrients. For example, one time the author found a very old tree stump. Its

insides had rotted a long time ago to topsoil. But the wood on the outside of the stump was still

living. How was this possible？Well, the stump was nourished by its neighbors with nutrients

from the root system, and had been for at least 400 years!

Why do trees do such a thing？It’s simple: it’s better together. Trees need the forest; it

protects them from storms, provides the right microclimate and warns them of attacks.

1．Why does the author mention the three oak trees?

A．To illustrate trees can learn from experiences.

B．To show trees can make independent decisions.

C．To explain trees are quite supportive to each other.

D．To prove trees have the same personalities as humans.

2．According to the text, which of the following best describes general features of trees?

A．Anxious and bold.

B．Smart and adventurous.

C．Helpful and well-behaved.

D．Adaptable and supportive.

3．What does the underlined phra “do such a thing” mean?

A．Give warnings. B．Offer assistance.

C．Depend on others. D．Provide nutrients.

4．Where does this text most probably come from?

A．A public lecture. B．A science book.

C．An experiment report. D．A travel journal.

【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了树的智慧：每棵树都有它不同的个性，遇到困

难时它们也会互相帮助。研究发现，树不但能自己做决定，还能从自己的错误中吸取教训。

1．B 解析：推理判断题。根据第二段第四句“One of the oak trees always starts to shed its

leaves two weeks earlier than the others.”可知，三棵橡树中，有一棵总比其他两棵先落叶；结

合第三段第一句“Not only do trees make their own decisions, they also learn from their

mistakes.”可知，树木能自己做决定。据此可推知，作者提及三棵橡树旨在说明树木可以自

己做决定，故B项正确。

2．D 解析：推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“Not only do trees make their own decisions,

they also learn from their mistakes.”，并结合第三段内容可知，树木不仅能自己做决定，还能

从自己的错误中吸取教训。据此可推知，树木适应能力强。根据第四段第一、二句“But trees

aren’t only clever when it comes to caring for themlves. They also support each other whenever

there’s trouble by giving warnings and even taking care of sick and weak conspecifics with

nutrients.”可知，树木不仅善于照顾自己，当遇到困难时，它们会发出警告，相互支持，甚

至照顾生病、虚弱的同类；据此可推知，树木之间互帮互助，故D项正确。

3．B 解析：词义猜测题。根据第四段尾句“Well，the stump was nourished by its neighbors

with nutrients from the root system, and had been for at least 400 years！”可知，树桩是由它的邻

居从根处给予营养来滋养的；结合第五段第一句“Why do trees do__such__a__thing？”和其后

的内容可知，该处表示“为什么树木要互相帮助？”，故画线短语是指提供帮助，故B项正

确。

4．B 解析：文章出处题。通读全文可知，本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了树的智慧：

每棵树都有它不同的个性，遇到困难时它们也会互相帮助。研究发现，树不但能自己做决定，

还能从自己的错误中吸取教训。据此可推知，本文最可能选自科学书籍，故B项正确。

Test 6

It was about ven years ago. I just picked up my three-year-old daughter from the nurry. I

was weighed down with shopping bags, and with my daughter’s things. We arrived at a pedestrian

crossing and she presd the button. In the distance, I heard alarms, told my daughter to wait and

watched a police car approaching.

Little did I know, as the_green_man flashed, that my daughter had begun to run into the road.

I watched the police car speed toward us—that’s when you sounded your horn and waved wildly

to me. My daughter was about a meter from the path of the police car, hidden from their view by

your car.

I screamed her name and ran toward her. She stopped and was shocked by the rush of the

police car as it sped past. She wondered why you had blown your horn, asking, “Mom, why was

that woman so rude？” not realizing you had saved her life.

She wondered why I picked her up and burst into tears. My legs gave way as I reached the

other side of the road. I should have followed my “wait” with a hand on her shoulder, or an

【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。大约七年前，“我”的女儿过马路时没有注意到警车，幸亏

一位女士按喇叭提醒，才挽救了女儿的生命。这件事让“我”至今难忘，心中充满感激。

1．C 解析：词义猜测题。根据第二段第一句“Little did I know, as the__green__man

flashed，that my daughter had begun to run into the road.”并结合常识可知，此处表示看到绿灯

亮之后，“我”的女儿跑到了马路上；据此可推知，画线部分指代一种交通标志，故C项正

确。A项意为“一个行人”，B项意为“一个警察”，D项意为“一个按钮”，都与语境不符。

2．D 解析：推理判断题。根据第二段第二、三句“I watched the police car speed toward

us—that’s when you sounded your horn and waved wildly to me. My daughter was about a meter

from the path of the police car, hidden from their view by your car.”可知，“我”看到警车向“我们”

疾驰而来，这时你按响了喇叭，疯狂地向“我”挥手。“我”的女儿离警车的车道大约一米远，

你的车挡住了他们的视线。据此可推知，那位女士按响喇叭是为了引起这位母亲的注意，提

醒她注意她女儿的安全，故D项正确。

3．C 解析：推理判断题。根据第二段可知，当看到小女孩面临危险时，那位女士按

响喇叭，并疯狂地向小女孩的母亲挥手；并结合第三段第一、二句“I screamed her name and ran

toward her. She stopped and was shocked by the rush of the police car as it sped past.”可知，警车

疾驰而过，“我”的女儿安然无恙；据此可推知，那位女士反应快速、正确，挽救了小女孩的

生命，故C项正确。

4．B 解析：推理判断题。根据第四段第一、二句“She wondered why I picked her up and

burst into tears. My legs gave way as I reached the other side of the road.”可知，女儿不知道“我”

为什么把她抱起来并突然大哭起来；当“我”走到路的另一边时，“我”的腿软了；结合上文可

知，一位女士的提醒使“我”的女儿避免了车祸；据此可推知，抓住女儿时，这位母亲既害怕，

又感到宽慰，故B项正确。
