seasoned viewers of reality singing competitions know how to pay special attention to the end of any audition episodeproducers generally save that time for their favorite competitor. indeed, that is exactly what happened in the last few minutes of the voice season 15 premiere（首次公演）on monday, the producers truly delivered.“lets check in with the final artist of the night， host carson daly informed the audience, and introduced kennedy holmes, a 13-year-old from st. louis. a few minutes later, young holmes would make the celebrity coaches/judges lose their minds. but first, viewers were treated to a fairly standard prerecorded introduction of holmes, the youngest singer to audition this season. holmes said shes a typical middle school student: she loves dancing, playing volleyball, and running track. then, the producers cut to her standing on the stage. she started singing adeles turning tables.all four judges pressed their buttons so the chairs could spin around, and they prepared to fight it out to persuade holmes to join their respective（各自的）teams. the “fourchair turn on the voice is one thing. but its highly unusual for a competitor to inspire such an extreme reaction. after kelly clarkson literally had to take a walk to calm down after learning holmess age, adam levine said as much，“just to see that kind of confidence naturally exist in you at such a young age, its unheard of.holmes, remarkably contained through her audition, burst into tears as soon as jennifer hudson started talking to her. holmes said that in one of her first performances at school, she sang i am changing, which hudsons character performed in dreamgirls, “ive dreamed to sing with you， holmes said. “im ready! hudson replied. she walked to the stage and gave holmes a hug, and the two of

the producers will make the presentations.c. they can take pictures with their favorite singers.d. the competition will come to an end soon.25. what did the viewers see first in holmes turn?a. the judges reaction to the competitor.b. the perfect performance of the competitor.c. a brief introduction of the competitor.d. the friends and relatives of the competitors.26. what can we learn about the four judges of the voice?a. they enjoyed turning chairs around quickly.b. it was typical of them to press their buttons together.c. they were not familiar with the procedure of the competition.d. they all wanted to become holmes coach.27. who is jennifer hudson?a. she is the winner of this season.b. she is the host of the competition.c. she is a successful middle school student.d. she is an actress starring in dreamgirls.cwith self-driving vehicle technology rapidly advancing, many companies are turning to autonomous robots for the last mile of the delivery process, from the store to the customer. the latest to join the trend is e-commerce giant amazon. following a successful eight-month test run in snohomish county, washington, the companys scout robots have been making the rounds of irvine, california, since august 6, 2019.the six-wheeled scout is about the size of a large cooler with the capacity to carry small or medium-sized packages. the battery-powered vehicle, which moves at a regular walking pace, has been programmed to stay away from pedestrians,animals, and unexpected obstacles, like garbage cans. its powerful sensors can also detect the movement of a car backing out of a driveway.though amazon hasnt revealed how scout ensures the delivery is picked up by the right person , it most likely requires the customer to apply a unique code, texted to them before the delivery, to unlock the cargo bay, also unclear is the number of deliveries scout can complete before its battery needs recharging. though the initial tests are being conducted with a human in tow, the robot will be autonomous in the future. its location, however, will be tracked at all timesif someone attempts to steal scout , amazon employees will be instantly alerted.while amazon is focusing on home deliveries, food and grocery delivery company postmates1 bug-eyed robots are currently making their rounds along the busy san francisco streets. also in test-mode, the robots can carry up to 50 pounds and travel 30 miles on a single battery charge.though the eco-friendly robots will help free our streets of bicycles, motor bikes, and large delivery trucks that typically ferry packages, they cant climb stairs or. open gates, which means they can only reach consumers living the ground level. additionally, the robots are unable to leave packages at the front door if the customers arent home. whether these issues get solved remains to be seen. for now, it appears that humans will still be needed to satisfy the ever-growing demand for home and office deliveries.28. what is the right feature of the scout robots?a. they can be powered themselves.b. they can run thanks to their six wheels.c. they know to avoid obstacles ahead.d. theyre big enough to carry heavy things.29. what about scout is still confusing to common people?a. how many deliveries it can do on a full charge.b. why its cargo bay can open at the right time.c. how long it will take to get it fully charged,d. how it recognizes the right owner of the things,30. what is the authors opinion about delivery robots according to the last paragraph?a.they are not easily available.b. theyll replace humans soon.c.they wont be well accepted.d. they have some limitations.31. what should be the best title for the text?a. amazons delivery robots may soon be knocking at your door.b. amazon has planned to put a creative delivery robot into use.c. eco-friendly delivery robots are springing up around america.d. improvements are being made to delivery robot technology.dthe first atlantics first tropical storm in 2019 was named andrea. the one hit america in august was named dorian. there are also hurricane harvey and hurricane sandy. you probably find yourself wondering who chooses hurricane names and where hurricane names come from?originally, hurricanes in the west indies were named after the saints day （圣徒纪念日）when the storm hit. by the 1900s, an australian meteorologist started a new system. instead of naming hurricanes after saints, he started using womens names, and the united states followed suit in 1953. by 1979, mens names were added to the mix. so how do meteorologists pick the names?the world meteorological organization comes up with a list of names way before the storms hit. the group has six lists with 21 names eachone for every letter except q, u, x, y, and zto be used each year in the atlantic. the west coast gets its hurricane names from six different lists, which include every letter except q and u. every time a tropical storm hits, meteorologists take the names alphabetically （按字母表顺序地）down that yeas list. once six years go by, the naming starts again with the first list.now that the lists are established, its hard to change the names on them. the lists only change if theres a particularly bad storm, which is why you wont be seeing another hurricane katrina or sandy in the future. the world meteorological organization decides it will take any names off the list during its annual meeting, but as of september 2019 , the names most recently retired from the atlantic list are florence and michael.32. how did the australian meteorologist name hurricanes?a. he used names of women.b. he named them after the saints day.c.he followed the american way.d.he named them alphabetically.33. what will be the name for the first hurricane in atlantic

and unique. 36 very few people are born with it. even fewer remain confident through the painful process of adolescence and adulthood. here is what true confidence looks like： 37 confident people dont feel the need to prove anything to anyone. they know their self-worth, but theyve also learned humility（谦逊）.their achievements are part of who they are, but theyre not all that they are. often they experience diversity in their life. they learn that material success may come and go easily, but the steady strength that fuels their core can never be taken away from them.they are compassionate and genuinely happy to see others succeed. they never tease or put down others to make themselves feel better. they never feel threatened by another persons beauty, wealth, talent, or success. 38 you will

afraid of criticism, because their realistic feeling of self-worth acts as a litmus test（试金石）that allows them to differentiate between helpful criticism and personal attacks. they like to learn from the former and dismiss the latter. they know that they cant please everyone and they dont waste their time trying. confident people never seek outside approval. 39 true confidence isnt easy. 40 it

mistakes.第三部分 语言知识运用（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。around thanksgiving, i flew to visit my family. a woman across the aisle 41 to push her suitcase
