D.Berecoveredduringitsnextcemission.8.A9.C10.D11.A【分析】本文是新闻报道。主要讲述了Starman和座驾特斯拉Roadster接近了火星。【8题详解】推理判断题。根据第一段的“Starman,thedummy(仿真人)ridingacherry-redTeslaRoadster(特斯拉敞篷车)throughce,hasmadehisclosestapproachevertoMars.TheelectricroadsteranditspassengerwereattachedtothetopofaFalconHeavyrocketduringtheceXrocket’sfirsttestlaunchon6February2018.(仿真人Starman，乘坐樱桃红的TeslaRoadster，穿越太空，已经离火星最近。在太空五号火箭首次于2018年2月发射时，该电动敞篷车和它的乘客被附在猎鹰重型火箭的顶部)”和“theFalconHeavyrocketandthevehicleatitstiparemakingtheirsecondtriparoundtheSun.(猎鹰重型火箭和其顶端的车辆正在进行第二次绕太阳飞行)”可推断，Starman已经开始了它的第二次绕太阳飞行。故选A。【9题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段的“Mr.McDowelluseddataabouthowtherocketwasmovingwhenitlefttheEarth’sgravitybehindtolocateitsrecentmovementsexactly.(麦克道尔利用火箭脱离地球引力时的运动数据来准确定位它最近的运动。)”可知，麦克道尔是通过分析火箭运行的数据成功定位Starman的。故选C。【10题详解】词义猜测题。根据划线词上文“Butthistimethecrossinglinedupwithafairlycloseapproach,thoughstillnotcloseenoughtofeelastrongtugfromMars”（这次的穿越与相当近距离的接近是一致的，但距离还不够近，不足以感受到来自火星的强烈tug）可知，这一次，交叉点相当近，然而仍旧不够近，因此推断感觉不到来自火星的引力，故划线词意为“拉力”，与pull意思相近。故选D。【11题详解】细节理解题。根据最后一段的“Overthecourseofdecadesorcenturies,thecarwillendupwithitsaluminium(铝)frameandhardglasspartsthat’sassumingthatnoneofthemgetdestroyedinimpactswithpassingcerocks.(在几十年或几个世纪，这辆车最终成为铝框架和硬玻璃部件——假设它们没有在通过太空岩石时被破坏)”可知，几十年或几个世纪以后，Starman很可能最多只剩下框架和玻璃了。故选A。DSocialmediaistakingoverourlives:,,andnow,TikTok.Thesesocialmediaplatformshavetransformedfromawaytostayconnectedtoanindustrywhereevenkidscanmakemoneyoftheirposts.Whilethismayseemlikeanotheropportunisticinnovation,itsreallyfullofhiddenfalserealities.Themedianincome（中位收入）recordedintheUnitedStatesofAmericawasabout$63,000in2018.TikTokerswithoveramillionfollowerscanmakeupto$30,000amonth$360,000ayear.Theyaremakingmorethantheaveragepersontryingtofeedtheirfamilyandkeeparoofovertheirheads,simplybypostinga15-secondvideo.Notonlyisitanoverpaid“job”,italsopromotesundeservedadmirationfromviewersandafalsesenseofreality.ManyofthesefamousTikTokersarestillteens,andtheeffectsoffameatsuchanearlystageinlifemightcauseissueslaterinlife,suchasmentalinfluencedbywhattheyarewatching.Theycanputafalsesenseofself-valueintowhotheylookuptoandwhattheyrepresent:money,fame,beingconsideredconventionallyattractive.WhileTikTokhasbecomeagreattoolformarketing,it’simportanttounderstandhowthiscontentaffectsyoungviewers.Ifwe’reconstantlyconsumingcontentthatshowsusallweneedtodotobesuccessfulisbeconventionallyattractiveandposta15-secondvideofeaturinganewdance,itwillchallengeourknowledgeofwhatreallymakessomeonesuccessfulandwillinturnaffectourindividualworkethics（伦理）.Whataboutthepeoplewhomissbirthdaysandfamilyholidaysduetotheirjobsandaren’tgettingpaidnearlyasmuchastheseTikTokers?RichardColyer,presidentandcreatorofMetaphor,Inc.,hadhisownviewonthisissue.“Itsoundsgreatthatkidscanmakemoneyfordoingthelatestdancemovesina15-secondvideo,butweshouldfeedthemindsofkidsandnotjusttheirbankaccounts.TikTokcanbegreatifusedproperly.Moneyaloneisnotgood,technologyaloneisnotgoodandconnectednesscanbebadifit’sonlyonline.”12.Whatdoestheunderlinedword“this”inParagraph1referto?A.socialnetworking B.stayingconnectedtotheInternet.C.ajobofferedbyTikTok.

B.JoinYoungTikTokersC.TikTokAMineofMoney D.SayNotoTiKTok12.D13.C14.B15.A【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍当今社交媒体平台已经从一种保持联系的方式转变为一种连孩子都可以通过发帖赚钱的行业，然而过早接触可能会在以后的生活中造成问题。【12题详解】词句猜测题。根据划线词上一句“Thesesocialmediaplatformshavetransformedfromawaytostayconnectedtoanindustrywhereevenkidscanmakemoneyoftheirposts.（这些社交媒体平台已经从一种与行业保持联系的方式转变为一种甚至孩子们都可以通过发帖赚钱的行业。）”可推测，this指代的是“在社交媒体上赚钱”这件事。故选D。【13题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Theycanputafalsesenseofself-valueintowhotheylookuptoandwhattheyrepresent:money,fame,beingconsideredconventionallyattractive.（他们会把一种错误的自我价值观念强加到他们所崇拜的人以及他们所代表的东西上:金钱、名誉、被认为具有传统吸引力。）”可知，Tiktok会让孩子们形成错误的价值观。故选C。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“TikTokcanbegreatifusedproperly.（如果使用得当，TikTok会很棒。）”可推知，RichardColyer认为如果青少年明智地使用Tiktok，它可以产生积极地影响。故选B。【15题详解】主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Thesesocialmediaplatformshavetransformedfromawaytostayconnectedtoanindustrywhereevenkidscanmakemoneyoftheirposts.Whilethismayseemlikeanotheropportunisticinnovation,itsreallyfullofhiddenfalserealities.（这些社交媒体平台已经从一种与行业保持联系的方式转变为一种甚至孩子们都可以通过发帖赚钱的行业。虽然这看起来像是另一种机会主义创新，但它实际上充满了隐藏的虚假现实。）”和文章第四段“Whataboutthepeoplewhomissbirthdaysandfamilyholidaysduetotheirjobsandaren’tgettingpaidnearlyasmuchastheseTikTokers?（那些因为工作而错过生日和家庭假期、收入不及TikTokers的人怎么办?）”可知，文章主要讨论了工作与娱乐地抉择问题。故选A。第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，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最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Agratefulheartisasatisfiedheart.Asatisfiedheartisasimpleheartwhichleadstoasimplifiedlife.Gratitudeopensthedoortosimplicity.Butweliveinaculturethatproducesdissatisfaction.____16____Intentionallychooseit.Gratitudewillneverbearesultofyournextsuccessoraccomplishment.____17____Andyouwillneverfinditinlifeuntilyouintentionallydecidetochooseit.Findgratitudeindifficulty.____18____Butitcanbemoredifficultduringthetrialsoflife:thedeath,disease,orfailure.Thetruthisthatnooneisexempt（获豁免的）fromthesufferings.However,goodcanbefoundevenintheworstoftimes.Beinggratefulduringthosedifficultiesmaygetyouthroughthem.Countyourblessings.Anewday,awarmbed,auniquepersonality,oraspecialtalent.____19____Gratitudequicklysetsinwhenwebegintospendaquietmomenteachdayrememberingthem.Thispracticealonehasthepotentialtochangeyourheartandlifeimmeasurably.____20____Almosthalftheworldliveonlessthan$2.50aday.1.1billionpeoplehaveinadequateaccesstocleanwater.Letthosefactssinkinforjustamomentandslowlyallowgratitudetobecomepartofthesolutiontotaketheirplace.Indailylifewemustseeitisnothappinessthatmakesusgrateful,butgratefulnessthatmakesushappy.A.Openyoureyestothosewithless.B.Gratitudeisavailableinyourheartrightnow.C.Ignorewhatyoudon’thave.D.Wecanlearnhowtobegrateful.E.Youhavewonderfulthingsinyourlifealready.F.It’seasytobegratefulwhenthingsaregoingwell.G.Howcanwefindgratitudeinaworldthatseekstodestroyit?16.G17.B18.F19.E20.A【分析】这是一篇应用文。文章就如何在生活中做到心存感激给出了一些建议。【16题详解】主题段指出心存感激的重要性，前句“Butweliveinaculturethatproducesdissatisfaction.”（我们生活在一个强调不满足的世界里。）下文则开始具体给出一些心怀感激的方法，G选项“我们如何在一个要破坏感激的世界里找到感激呢”承上启下，符合文意。故选G项。【17题详解】本段的主题句“Intentionallychooseit”（有意地选择感激。）前句“Gratitudewillneverbearesultofyournextsuccessoraccomplishment.”（感激不会是下一次赢利、成功和成就的结果。），B选项“感激就存在于当下、在你的心里”承接上文，符合段落主题。故选B项。【18题详解】本段的主题句“Findgratitudeindifficulty.”（在苦难中寻求感激。）F选项“当事情进展顺利时表达感激很容易”与后句“Butitcanbemoredifficultduringthetrialsoflife:thedeath,disease,orfailure.”（在遭遇到生活的磨难时则会变得很难，）句意上承接得比较自然、通顺。故选F项。【19题详解】本段的主题句“Countyourblessings.”（数算上天的赐福。）前句“Anewday,awarmbed,auniquepersonality,oraspecialtalent.”列举了一些可以感激的对象，E选项“你的生活中已经有很多美好的东西了”承接上文，符合主题。故选E项。【20题详解】第四段缺少主题句，本段主要讲述了世界上还有很多人生活得很艰难，想到他们时我们应该为此感到满足和感激。A选项“看看那些并不富足的人们”符合本段主题，适合作为主题句。故选A项。第三部分英语知识运用（共两小节，满分45分）第一节完形填空（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四个选项(A、B、C、和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并标在答题卷的相应位置。mailboxatmydeskandstartedwritinganemotionalletterofthankfulness,butwhenitcametoactuallyplacingtheletterintothemailboxI____21____.Icouldn’tdoit.Isuddenlyfeltasenseof____22____andinsecurity.TheletterwastoanoldteacherwithwhomIkeptin____23____viacomments.Forweeks,herpagehad____24____metolivemylifedifferently.Hervolunteereffortsweren’thuge.____25____,shewasdoingsmall,localgooddeeds.Gradually,shemademe____26____myoutlookontheworldandforsomereason,IfeltIshouldletherknowhowherexample____27____influencedmylife.Icouldhaveeasilysentheranemail,butthatseemednotenoughforsuchanimportantthank-you.That’swhyIendedup____28____theletter.ButnowhereIwas,standingbeforethemailbox,unabletoplacetheenvelopeinside.Whatwasstoppingme?Itsuddenly____29____methatIwasafraidofbeingtoonice.IguessIfeltstrange_____30_____itwasn’tlikeshewasmybestfriendorarelative.Maybemy_____31_____wastooheartfelt.Thinkingthisover,Iputtheenvelopeinthemailbox_____32_____.Weekslaterreceivedamessagefromher.Itturnedoutshewas_____33_____atoughtimeandmynote_____34_____theworldtoher.Shesaidshehadnoideashewasmakingsucha_____35_____toothers.Notonlydidthislettermakeherhappierbuther_____36_____toitbrightenedmyworldandincreasedmylevelofhappinessaswell.Iwasso_____37_____thatithadsuchagreatinfluenceonherthatIdecidedtowritea(n)_____38_____lettertosomeoneeachmonth.I’mmorelikelyto_____39_____thegoodnessinothersandamsubsequentlymorethankfulforthis_____40_____lifeI’mliving.21.A.advanced
