If you feel sick or uncomfortable, you might seek out a doctor. But what to do if you don't quite know where you fit into this world and you're tired of carrying that burden alone?
I answered strangers' questions on life puzzles at the entrance to the New York City subway at 57th and 8th. A group of strangers had stopped by because they were carrying some deep, meaningful questions that had long gone unanswered, like “why can't I be happier in my life？”
And then I spotted her, who would be my toughest questioner of the day. She was about 6 years old and held her mother's hand as she craned(伸长) her neck to stare at us. Her mother stopped, but the girl hesitated. “It's OK，”I offered. “Do you have a question？” The girl smiled at her mother, then let go of her hand to walk over towards us. She looked me dead in the eye and said, “How do I know I'm real？”
Suddenly I was back in graduate school. Should I talk about the French philosopher Rene Descartes to prove our existence, with the phrase “I think, therefore I am？” Or, mention English philosopher G．E. Moore and his famous “here is one hand, here is the other” to prove the existence of the external world? But then the answer came to me. I remembered that the most important part of philosophy was feeding our sense of wonder. “Close your eyes，” I said. She did. “Well, did you disappear？” She smiled and shook her head, then opened her eyes. “Congratulations, you're real.”
She grinned(露齿而笑) broadly and walked over to her mother, who looked back at us and smiled.

Every year between May and September, all 54 employees of Basecamp, a Chicagobased web application company, have a short work week：just four days－a total of 32 hours. Also, they usually work five days a week for the rest of the year.
“That's plenty of time to get great work done. This is all we expect and all we want from people，” says Jason Fried，a cofounder. “Working 50，60， or 70plus hours is unnecessary. In fact, if you have to work 50， 60， or 70plus hours a week, there's a management problem.”
The company's summer workload must fit reduced hours, Mr.Fried insists, otherwise the benefits of a shorter week－to recover from work, enjoy time with family and pursue(追求) outside interests－would be undone.
His new research finds that it is not just long hours that are harmful to employees' physical and mental health. It is also the intensity (强度) of work. Moreover, it suggests that intense work harms career prospects. That is because unbearable hours and intensity are in the opposite direction, reducing the quality of the work.
The research concludes that the level of intensity we apply to the work we do is generally “a stronger predictor of unfavorable outcomes than overtime work”．
The research compared people of similar jobs and education levels, and found they were more likely to suffer poorer happiness and worse career prospects, including satisfaction, security and promotion, when they worked at an intense level for long periods.
8．What do we know about Basecamp's fourday work week?
A．It lasts nearly half a year.
B．The work pressure is too high.
C．There are some management problems.
D．Employees work more than 8 hours a day.
9．What does Mr.Fried intend to say in Paragraph 2?
A．Given plenty of time, people can do more.
B．To get work done well needs plenty of time.
C．People can do a job very well in a short work week.
D．A long work week is appropriate for reduced workload.
10．What does the research mentioned in the text want to tell us?
A．Getting much more rest. B．Improving work quality.
C．Refusing a fiveday work week. D．Avoiding working too intensely.
11．What can be the best title for this passage?
A．More Work, More Profits B．Less Work, Less Benefits
C．Shorter Week, Better Reward D．Longer Hours, Higher Intensity

[2020·成都第一次诊断]
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 close 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 several 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 sensitive tips of their roots they keep track of information and experiences.
But trees aren't only clever when it comes to caring for themselves. 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.
12．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.
13．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 wellbehaved. D．Adaptable and supportive.
14．What does the underlined phrase “do such a thing” mean?
A．Give warnings. B．Offer assistance.
C．Depend on others. D．Provide nutrients.
15．Where does this text most probably come from?
A．A public lecture. B．A science book.
C．An experiment report. D．A travel journal.

Apologizing the Right Way to a Friend
Why are apologies so difficult? Saying you are sorry can be the most difficult thing you do. But we all make mistakes, so you'll probably have an occasion when you need to apologize. Perhaps you had blew up at someone and realized later you reacted poorly. __16__. Whatever the reason, apologizing can help you both heal and move on from the situation.
__17__. First, you acknowledge that you did something wrong. With an apology, you take responsibility for your actions, which allows your friend to forgive you. Second, an apology gives your sincerity as a friend. __18__， but that doesn't mean we still shouldn't apologize.
Now, what are elements of a proper apology? __19__， depending on what the offense was, where it was done, and who you are apologizing to. In general, a good apology should include the following: a request for their attention, an acknowledgment of what happened, sincerity in admitting you did something wrong and the words “I'm sorry” or “I apologize”. Here are things never to say when apologizing. Note that the art of apologizing involves taking responsibility. Never apologize as a way to “shut someone up” when they are saying you hurt their feelings and you don't think you did. __20__， you should talk things through with your friends until you see why they are hurt or how you came across. You'll really need to selfreflect so you can see things from your friend's point of view.
A．When you make your apology in person
B．If you really believe you did nothing wrong
C．Apologies benefit friendships in a variety of ways
D．The way you apologize is going to be slightly different
E．Or maybe you just didn't show support when you needed to

Michael sat on the wooden bench outside the house holding a fourleaf clover (四叶草). Michael had believed that fourleaf clovers brought good luck, but he started doubting that kind of power.
Michael was eleven. It had been two months since his mom and dad died in an accident. A widow by the name of Jill adopted him. Michael had a dislike for Jill. Her voice was loud. She also made him do her chores (家庭杂务). Michael felt not as much as a son to her. He dreamed a lot. He spoke little. He cried secretly. He had even been working on a plan for two weeks to flee the house.
That was, until he heard Jill parking her Honda into the garage.
Michael stuffed the fourleaf clover in his left pocket. Before he realized it, Jill was standing in front of him, with a small beagle (毕格尔犬) in her hand. She put the beagle down. It ran to Michael and sat on his Nike tennis shoes. Michael knelt down to pet it. After a while, he looked up: “Is the dog for me？”
Jill laughed: “Of course! You are the slowest little boy ever! I've got you a little puppy to make you work faster.”
Michael couldn't see how a beagle would help with his chores, but he thought it would be nice to have a friend. “Give him a name，” Jill said.
Michael thought for a moment. He saw a big, black spot on his back. That's it! Spot! “I'll name him Spot！” Michael announced.
“Spot, Spot, stupid name but it'll do. Now, you'd better clean the bathroom and finish your homework before dinner's ready.”
“Yes, ma'am.”

第一部分 阅读理解
第一节
A
体裁：应用文 主题语境：人与社会——消费者权益——退货退款保证
【文章大意】 文章介绍了国内DHgate网上交易平台的退货退款保证制度。
【难句分析】 Buyers should prepay any return shipping cost, which will be given back to the buyers after the seller receives the items as long as the items are returned in the same exact condition as when they were delivered.(Para.3)
分析：这是一个复合句。主句为“Buyers should prepay any return shipping cost”；句中的“which will be given back to the buyers...they were delivered”是which引导的非限制性定语从句，先行词为any return shipping cost；after和as long as分别引导时间状语从句和条件状语从句。
译文：买方应预付退货运费，在卖方收到货物后，只要退还的货物与当时交货时的状况相同，运费将退还给买方。
1．答案与解析：B 考查细节理解。根据题干中的关键词“additional assistance”定位到第一段尾句。依据此句可知，如果卖方不合作，DHgate将提供额外的协助。故选B。
2．答案与解析：C 考查细节理解。依据Scope部分中的“You didn't contact the seller within the promised time”可知，与此情况相反时是在保证范围内的，即买家在承诺期限内求助是可以享受保证服务的，故选C。
3．答案与解析：A 考查推理判断。根据Scope部分中的第一条“The seller didn't make any promise”可知，卖方没有做出承诺时不包括在退货退款保证范围内，据此可推知，不是所有卖方都做出承诺，故选A。
B
体裁：记叙文 题材：日常生活 主题：小女孩的哲学问题
【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文。在纽约，“我”惯于给人们指点迷津，回答陌生人对于生活困惑问题的提问。一个小女孩问“我”，她怎么知道她自己是真实的，“我”无法引用哲学家的话来解释，于是让她闭上眼睛问她自己是否消失了，小女孩由此得到了问题的答案。
【难句分析】 She grinned(露齿而笑) broadly and walked over to her mother, who looked back at us and smiled.
分析：该句为主从复合句。句中“who looked back at us and smiled”为who引导的非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词her mother，引导词在从句中作主语。
译文：她露齿而笑．走到她母亲跟前，她母亲回头看着我们笑了。
4．答案与解析：C 考查细节理解。根据第二段第一句“I answered strangers' questions on life puzzles at the entrance to the New York City subway at 57th and 8th”可知，在纽约地铁57号和8号人口处，作者回答陌生人关于生活困惑的问题；据此可知，作者出现在地铁入口是为了给陌生人提供关于解决生活困惑的建议，故C项正确。
5．答案与解析：A 考查推理判断。根据第三段第二句“She was about 6 years old and held her mother's hand as she craned(伸长) her neck to stare at us”，并结合该段内容可知，小女孩大约6岁，握着妈妈的手，伸长脖子盯着作者看；据此可推知，小女孩对作者感到好奇，所以盯着作者看，故A项正确。
6．答案与解析：D 考查细节理解。根据第四段中的“‘Close your eyes，’I said. She did.‘Well, did you disappear？’She smiled and shook her head, then opened her eyes.‘Congratulations，you're real.’”可知，作者让小女孩闭上眼睛后问她是否消失了，小女孩笑着摇头，然后睁开眼睛。据此可知，通过一个真实的体验，小女孩找到了问题的答案，故D项正确。
7．答案与解析：C 考查推理判断。根据第二段第一句“I answered strangers' questions on life puzzles at the entrance to the New York City subway at 57th and 8th”可知，在纽约地铁入口处，作者为陌生人提供关于生活困惑的建议，据此可推知，作者是一位乐于助人的人；根据第四段可知，在解答小女孩的问题时，作者没有引用哲学家的话解释，而是让小女孩闭上眼睛，然后问她是否消失了，巧妙地解答了小女孩的疑问，据此可推知，作者是一位聪明的人，故C项正确。
C
体裁：说明文 题材：社会文化 主题：较短的工作周的好处
【文章大意】本文以一家总部位于芝加哥的网络应用公司Basecamp的54名员工将近半年时间每周只工作4天，共32小时的情况为例说明了较短的工作周有益于人们的身心健康，并以一项研究来证明。
8．答案与解析：A 细节理解题。根据第一段可知，一家总部位于芝加哥的网络应用公司Basecamp的54名员工在每年5月到9月期间每周的工作时间都很短：只有四天，共32小时，持续5个月，大概半年时间，故选A项。
9．答案与解析：C 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Working 50，60，or 70plus hours is unnecessary. In fact, if you have to work 50，60，or 70plus hours a week, there's a management problem.”可知，弗里德先生认为一周工作五六十个小时，甚至七十几个小时是没有必要的。如果真这么做了，反而会出现管理上的问题，由此推知，弗里德先生认为人们可以在短时间内把工作做好，故选C项。
10．答案与解析：D 推理判断题。根据题干中的the research可定位到文章的第四至六段，通读这几段，尤其是第四段可知，这个新研究发现长时间工作不只对员工的身心健康有害，工作的强度也会影响员工的职业前景。这是因为难以忍受的工作时长和工作强度会降低工作质量，第五、六两段进一步说明了长时间高强度工作的坏处，由此可以推知，该研究是建议人们要避免高强度工作，故选D项。
11．答案与解析：C 主旨大意题。文章第一、二段以一家总部位于芝加哥的网络应用公司Basecamp为例，说明了较短的工作周的好处。第三段介绍了较短的工作周的好处。第四至六段介绍了一项有关工作时长和工作强度对人的影响的研究更进一步印证了较短工作周对人身心方面的益处。由此可知C项最能概括全文内容。
D
体裁：说明文 题材：自然 主题：树的智慧
【文章大意】 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。
【难句分析】 Not only do trees make their own decisions, they also learn from their mistakes.
分析：该句使用了倒装语序，not only置于句首，助动词do移至主语trees之前构成部分倒装结构。
译文：树木不仅能自己做决定，它们还能从自己的错误中吸取教训。
12．答案与解析：B 考查推理判断。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。
13．答案与解析：D 考查推理判断。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 themselves. 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。
14．答案与解析：B 考查词义猜测。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？”和第五段的内容可知，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。
15．答案与解析：B 考查文章出处。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。
第二节
体裁：说明文 题材：人际关系 主题：向朋友道歉的正确方法
【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了向朋友道歉的正确方法。
16．答案与解析：E 根据空后的“Whatever the reason”可知，空处与空前一句讲的是向朋友道歉的原因，所以选项E与语境相符，且选项E中的“maybe”与空前一句中的“Perhaps”相呼应，故选E。
17．答案与解析：C 空处位于段落句首主题句的位置；通读该段可知，该段主要讲的是道歉对友谊的好处，故C项符合语境。
18．答案与解析：G 根据空后的“but that doesn't mean we still shouldn't apologize”可知，G项“有时我们的朋友轻易地就原谅了我们犯的小错误”符合语境。
19．答案与解析：D 根据空后的“depending on... who you are apologizing to”可知，D项“你道歉的方法要稍微不同”与之衔接自然，故选D项。
20．答案与解析：B 根据空后的“you should talk things through with your friends until you see why they are hurt or how you came across”可知，B项“如果你确实认为你没做错什么”与之联系紧密，故选B项。
第二部分 语言知识运用
第一节
【文章大意】 本文是一篇记叙文。作者的朋友想要一份特殊的生日礼物，于是开始做善事，作者和他一起为在学校辛勤工作但是却常被忽略的保安送去了一杯巧克力。
21．答案与解析：B 本空后的“instead of receiving presents，he wanted to do some acts of kindness”是作者的朋友提出的请求，那就是不接受礼物，而是做一些善事。request意为“请求”，符合语境。
22．答案与解析：A 根据下一句话中的“was really difficult”可知，作者对朋友的提议感到不知所措，因为自己也不知道该怎么做。be stuck for意为“不知所措，(为某事)犯愁”，符合语境。be blessed with“有幸拥有某物”；be burdened with“负重”；be bored with“(对某人/某物)厌倦的”。
23．答案与解析：D 根据本段的前两句话可知，作者对朋友的请求感到很难应对，所以就问朋友他是怎么想到一个这样的新奇主意，句中novel是一个形容词，意为“新颖的”，符合语境。
24．答案与解析：A 正是因为深受鼓舞，他才有了这样的新颖的想法。作者接受了朋友的建议，所以开始尽可能想有创意的想法，为这些事情做好准备，plan out意为“精心安排，筹划”，符合语境。take over“接收，接管，控制，接替”；watch for“留意”；hold back“抑制，隐瞒”。
25．答案与解析：D 根据本句话中的“security guards”和下一句话中的“keeping watch on every corner”可知，作者和朋友想帮助大学里的安保人员，这些人要密切关注学生。monitor作动词意为“监视，检查，跟踪调查；监听”。
26．答案与解析：B 本句中的They指的是上一句话中的“security guards”，这些安保人员要全天工作，around the clock意为“日夜不停”，符合语境。step by step“逐步地”；more or less“几乎，差不多”；now and then“偶尔”。
27．答案与解析：D 在很大程度上，这是一份吃力不讨好的工作，因为大多数人已经习惯了在周围看到安保人员，几乎注意不到他们的存在，更不用说认可他们的努力了。grow/get accustomed to意为“习惯于”。be addicted to“对……着迷的”；be devoted to“全心全意的”；be attached to“附属于……”。
28．答案与解析：A 参见上题解析。presence意为“存在”，符合语境。

第二节
体裁：说明文 题材：科技 主题：智能宾馆
【文章大意】 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了智能宾馆的相关内容。
36．答案与解析：longer 考查固定搭配。句意：在中国，宾馆住客再也不用担心排队登记入住了。no longer是固定搭配，意为“不再”，故填longer。
37．答案与解析：themselves 考查代词。此处表示完成他们自己的登记入住。故应用they的反身代词themselves，作check的宾语。
38．答案与解析：is checked 考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。此处表示在信息被核实之后。此处为一般性描述，应用一般现在时，又根据语境并分析句子结构可知，主语the information与check之间为被动关系，且主语为第三人称单数，故填is checked。
39．答案与解析：gradually 考查词形转换。此处应用副词修饰其后的“expanded”。
40．答案与解析：how 考查宾语从句。此处表示在中国人们的生活正在变得多么便利。分析句子结构可知，此处引导宾语从句，又根据语境可知，此处表示程度，故用连接副词how“多么”。

44．答案与解析：given 考查形容词。根据空前的a和空后的名词passcode可知，此处应用形容词given“特定的”。
45．答案与解析：creating 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，主语The AI Smart Room与create为逻辑上的主谓关系，故用create的现在分词形式creating。
第三部分 写作
第一节
【佳作展台】
Dear Tom，
How is everything going? I'm delighted to know you're coming to China to learn Chinese paintings, hoping to take a short course in my city.
An art school, which is located in the center of the city, is the best choice for you. As I've learned, you'll finish studying Chinese ink landscape painting in six weeks. What's more, you can both eat and live in the school while studying here. Therefore, you needn't worry about your accommodation. In addition, the school charges a relatively modest fee.
If you have any other questions, please write to me as soon as possible.
Yours ，
Li Hua
第二节
【文章大意】 两个月前，Michael的父母在一次事故中去世。后来他被Jill收养，但他不喜欢Jill，觉得她对他不够好，因此他一直郁郁寡欢，甚至动了离家出走的念头。后来Jill带回家一只毕格尔犬，它改变了Michael对生活的态度。
【写作指导】 Paragraph 1的开头是“Michael ran to the bathroom, with Spot by his side”，由此可知第一段将会侧重描写Michael和Spot之间发生的故事，如Michael打扫卫生时，有Spot的陪伴等；也可能会提到Michael最终和Spot成为形影不离的好朋友等内容。
Paragraph 2的开头是“Two weeks passed, and everyone could see something changed in Michael”，由此可知第二段侧重描述Michael的变化，如在学校表现得好和他的心理状态发生的变化，最后再升华主题来呼应文章第一段的内容，如重新相信四叶草能带来好运等。
【佳作展台】
Paragraph 1：
Michael ran to the bathroom, with Spot by his side. This time he didn't feel lonely when cleaning, for the little dog was just there accompanying him. It was just a beginning. Now having a friend to play with, Michael didn't even have time to think about his escape plan. Instead, feeding and training Spot became his source of fun. And surprisingly, even Jill's loud voice didn't seem that annoying to him.
Paragraph 2：
Two weeks passed, and everyone could see something changed in Michael. He was happy again. In the school he performed better and made more friends. After a day filled with pleasure, Michael came back to his room with Spot. “Were it not for Spot, I wouldn't lead such a happy life.” He thought to himself. And then inside his left pocket, he found the fourleaf clover, which was considered as an indicator of good luck. He believed in it again.
