On the one hand, its true that many Americans have cold cereal for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch and instant (方便的) dinners. From busy homemakers to working people, many Americans enjoy the convenience of fast food that can be ready to serve in 10 minutes or less. On the other hand, many Americans realize the importance of cooking skills. Parentsespecially motherssee the importance of training their childrenespecially daughters. Most Americans think that theres nothing better than a good home-cooked meal. But with cooking, as with any other skill, good results dont happen by accident.Probably every cook has his or her own way of cooking. But there are some basic skills that most people follow. For example, baking is a main method of preparing food in America. For that reason, Americans would find it next to impossible to live without an oven. American cooks pay special attention to the balance of foods, too. In planning a big meal, they try to include meat, a few vegetables, some bread and often a dessert. They also like to make sure the meal is colorful. Having several different colors of food on the plate usually makes for a healthy meal.For those who need guidance in their cooking, or for those who have just run out of ideas, recipes are a great help. Recipes list all the ingredients for a dish (generally in the order used), the amount of each to use, and a description of how to put them together.24. This passage mainly tells us that _.A. Americans usually have fast food, but they pay special attention to cooking as wellB. without an oven, Americans find it impossible to live convenientlyC. Americans pay special attention to recipes and nutritious mealsD. Americans like to have several different colors of food on the plate25. Many Americans have cold cereal for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch and instant dinner because _.A. they like instant food very muchB. they dont like cooking at allC. most American working people are busy and dont have time to cookD. fast food is delicious and it usually contains a 1ot of vitamins26. By saying “But with cooking, as with any other skill, good results dont happen by accident”, the author means _.A. good cooking doesnt come easily: it needs a lot of practiceB. just like any other skill, cooking may bring good resultsC. cooking comes from ones gift, not through practiceD. cooking can lead to accidents27. From the passage, we know that _.A. Americans dont care about foodB. Americans are not good at cooking because they like to use recipesC. an oven plays an important role in cooking for AmericansD. while cooking, Americans usually run out of ideasCAfter a five-year pause, the Billboard Music Awards officially returned to the United States. Two of the big winners at this years awards were Rihanna and Taylor Swift. But a major symbol of the shows popularity came from others such as Beyonce, U2, the Black Eyed Peas, and First Lady Michelle Obama.This year marks the Billboard Awards rebirth. The Billboard Awards had been a big event since 1989, but the award in 2020 seemed to be its last award.This year the show was brought back in Las Vegas, broadcast live on ABC, and hosted by “The Hangover 2” star Ken Jeong. However, like many other awards shows, the three-hour awarding ceremony served more as a marketing tool for todays pop stars than an award presentation.The show was packed with fans. Cee-Lo Green floated in the air with his piano. Surprising duets (二重唱) between Rihanna and Britney Spears, and this years Billboard Icon Award winner, Neil Diamond made the fans sing along to “Sweet Caroline” and “America”.Rihannas two wins were Radio Artist of the Year and Top Female Artist. Taylor Swift won the evenings first award, as Top Album Artist, as well as Top Country ArtistBeyonce received a special “Millennium” Award for her career achievements: The 29-year-old star was praised in a video by a series of other stars, including Lady Gaga and Michelle Obama. She also performed her new song, “Run the World”.The Billboard Music Awards are given to the most popular artists in the mainstream music scene.

Top Male Artist.DDear Mr. Shyamalan,According to the box office, congratulations are in order. It seems your new movie, Split, is doing gangbusters. That means millions of people all over the world have seen or will soon see your story about a man who is suffering from Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID).As much as Im rooting for you as an artist, Mr. Shyamalan, personally, I think you climbed to success on the overburdened backs of the mentally ill.As a person who suffers from multiple(多面的) personalities, as well as a psychologist with professional knowledge and skills in the subject, I feel it is my duty to school you in a few facts: People who suffer from DID are not, generally speaking, scary or cheating. We are normal people who silently suffer from a painful condition in which our sense of who we are feels divided into broken parts. Our condition is often caused by a history of severe and repeated child abuse(虐待). In truth, we are victims(受害者) of unimaginable violence.With the release of your movie, you have become my bully(恃强凌弱者). I am personally harmed by the absurd fixed image you use in Split. Your description of Kevin Crumb as one gender confused, cross-dressing multiple with a strong liking for violence has the same effect as shouting across the playground, “People with DID are dangerous nut jobs!”I have lived for years with the shame created by movies such as yours. Despite being a successful doctor who runs a charity for adult survivors of child abuse, I live with constant anxiety that people will learn of my diagnosis(诊断). For no matter how long Ive known someone or how highly they think of me, once they know Im a multiple, the reaction is imaginable.In the future, Id appreciate it if you stopped using our pain and suffering as materials for your entertainment.Michelle Stevens32What does the author think of Shyamalans success?AHe was very fortunate BHe deserved it.CHis efforts were worthwhile DHe got it in an immoral way33Whats the probable cause of DID?APoor living conditions. BExtreme anxiety from life.CTense relations among people. DBeing badly treated in childhood.34Who is Kevin Crumb according to the text?AA friend of Mr. Shyamalans. BA character in Split.CA patient of Michelle Stevenss. DA psychologist with multiple personalities.35Whats the authors purpose in writing the text?ATo give the movie Split a review. BTo show respect for people with DID.CTo state that the movie Split hurt people with DID.DTo argue that people with DID can make a difference.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。Be a Green ChildWhat does it mean to be green? “Green” is more than just a color. It also means taking special steps to protect the environment. Why green? Plants are green, and without them the Earth wouldnt be such a lovely home for us human beings. What can we do? 36Reduce It!37 For instance, a shorter shower means you used less water and less fuel since your house uses to run the heater that warmed up the water.Reuse It!Sometimes people call ours a “throwaway society”. It means that were a little too willing to throw away old stuff (东西) and buy new stuff. 38 For instance, if your baby brother becomes older and loses interest in his plastic basketball hoop (篮圈), why not give it to another family who has a little kid?Recycle It!Recycling has never been easier. Many communities will pick it up right in front of your house and some towns even require it. Recycled goods go to a recycling center, where they can be turned into new cans, bottles, and paper.Enjoy It!Its true that rubbish and pollution are problems, but the Earth remains a huge and beautiful place thats ready for you to explore. 39 Go for a hike, visit local nature centers and gardens, and climb up mountains.But before you travel the globe, take a look at your own backyard. Is there a spot where you could plant a tree or put in a little fruit or vegetable garden? 40A. Heres a four-step guide to being green.B. Many times, even if you no longer need something, someone else just might.C. You can start locally by visiting the naturally beautiful spots in your city.D. Turn off the water when youre brushing your teeth.E. Get out there and get your hands dirty.F. You can watch with pride as your tree takes root and your garden plants grow.G. When you use less of something, you do a good thing for the Earth第三部分语言知识运用(共两节，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)阅读下面的短文，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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Janes mother worked on the farm from dawn till dark and she just could make ends meet.
