They will attend U.S. schools, meet U.S. teenagers, and form impressions of the real America. At the same time, about thirteen hundred American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and gain a new understanding of the rest of the world.Here is a two-way student exchange in action. Fred nineteen spent last year in Germany with Georges family. In turn, Georges son Mike spent a year in Freds home in America.Fred, a lovely young man, knew little German when he arrived, but after two months study, the language began to come to him. The school was completely differently different from what he had expectedmuch harder. Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room. They took fourteen subjects instead of the six that are usual in the United States. There were almost no outside activities.Family life, too, was different. The fathers word was law, and all activities were around the family rather than the individual. Fred found the food too simple at first. Also, he missed having a car.“Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out and have a good time. In Germany, you walk, but you soon learn to like it.”At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, was also forming his idea. “I suppose I should criticize American schools,” he says. “It is far too easy by our level. But I have to say that I like it very much. In Germany we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many outside activities. I think that maybe your schools are better in training for citizens. There ought to be some middle ground between the two.”1. This year_ teenagers will take part in the exchange program between America and other countries.A. twenty three hundred B. thirteen hundredC. over three thousand D. less than two thousand2. The whole exchange program is mainly to_.A. help teenagers in other countries know the real AmericaB. send students in America to travel in GermanyC. let students learn something about other countriesD. have teenagers learn new languages3.

The envelope was addressed to a man named Raoul, who, I was relatively certain, did not live with us. The envelope wasnt sealed, so I opened it. The inside of the card was blank. Ed, my husband, explained that the card was both from and to the newspaper deliveryman. His name was apparently Raoul, and Raoul wanted a holiday tip. We were meant to put a check inside the card and then drop the envelope in the mail. When your services are finished at 4 a.m., you cant simply hang around, like a hotel bellboy expecting a tip. You have to be direct.So I wrote a nice holiday greeting to this man who, in my imagination, fires The New York Times from his bike aimed at our front door, causing more noise with mere newsprint than most people manage with sophisticated(复杂的) black market fireworks. With a start, I realized that perhaps the reason for the 4 a.m. wake-up noise was not ordinary rudeness but carefully executed spite（怨恨）: I had not tipped Raoul in Christmas past. I honestly hadnt realized I was supposed to. This was the first time hed used the card tactic（策略）. So I got out my checkbook. Somewhere along the line, holiday tipping went from an optional thank-you for a year of services to a Mafia-style protection racket (收保护费组织).Several days later, I was bringing our garbage bins back when I noticed an envelope taped to one of the lids. The outside of the envelope said MICKEY. It had to be another tip request, this time from our garbage collector. Unlike Raoul, Mickey hadnt enclosed his own Christmas card from me. In a way, I appreciated the directness. I know you dont care how merry my Christmas is, and thats fine, the gesture said. I want $30, or Ill forget to empty your garbage bin some hot summer day. I put a check in the envelope and taped it back to the bin. The next morning, Ed noticed that the envelope was gone, though the trash hadnt yet been picked up: Someone stole Mickeys tip! Ed was quite certain. He made me call the bank and cancel the check. But Ed had been wrong. Two weeks later, Mickey left a letter from the bank on our steps. The letter informed Mickey that the check, which he had tried to cash, had been cancelled.The following Tuesday morning, when Ed saw a truck outside, he ran out with his wallet. Are you Mickey? The man looked at him with scorn（轻蔑）. Mickey is the garbageman. I am the recycling. Not only had Ed insulted（侮辱） this man by suggesting that he was a garbageman, but he had obviously neglected to tip him. Ed ran back inside for more funds. Then he noticed that the driver of the truck had been watching the whole incident. He peeled off another twenty and looked around, waving bills in the air. Anyone else? Had we consulted the website of the Emily Post Institute, this embarrassing break of etiquette (礼节) could have been avoided. Under trash/recycling collectors in the institutes Holiday Tipping Guidelines, it says: $10 to $30 each. You may or may not wish to know that your hairdresser, mailman and UPS guy all expect a holiday tip.55. The newspaper deliveryman put a blank card inside the envelope because_.A. he wanted the couple to pay for the newspaperB. he forgot to write a few words on itC. he used it to ask for a Christmas tipD. he was afraid of asking for a tip in person56. From the passage, we learn that the author_.A. didnt like Raouls way of delivering the paperB. didnt realize why Raoul delivered the paper that way beforeC. didnt know that Raoul delivered the paper for themD. didnt feel it necessary to meet Raoul when he came57. According to the passage, the author felt _ to give Raoul a holiday tip.A. excited B. happy C. embarrassed D. forced58. Which of the following is true about Mickey, the garbage collector?A. He wrote a letter to the couple afterwards.B. He failed to collect the money from the bank.C. He wanted the couple to send him a Christmas card.D. He collected both the check and the garbage that day.59. Eds encounter(遭遇) with the recycling team shows that_.A. Ed was desperate to correct his mistakeB. Ed only wanted to give money to RaoulC. Ed was unwilling to tip the truck driverD. Ed no longer wanted to give them money60. From the passage we can infer that _.A. their garbage bin might not be emptied one day if the writer didnt give tipsB. the writer could have avoided giving tips if they had consulted the website of the Emily Post InstituteC. the writers husband didnt know Raoul at allD. the writers family was too poor to give the tips55. C 根据第二段中的I had not tipped Raoul in Christmas past 和This was the first time hed used the card tactic可知Raoul是想要圣诞节小费。D中的“was afraid of”文章中未提到。56. B 根据第二段中的With a start, I realized that perhaps the reason for the 4 a.m. wake-up noise was not ordinary rudeness可知作者以前并不知道Raoul这样扔报纸和发出噪音的原因。57. D 根据第二段中的I honestly hadnt realized I was supposed to可知作者是被迫付费的。58. B 根据第四段中的The letter informed Mickey that the check, which he had tried to cash, had been cancelled.可知他没拿到钱。59. A 根据倒数第二段Ed拿着钱包去问司机可知他拼命想改正原先未付小费的错误。60. A 根据Ill forget to empty your garbage bin some hot summer day. 可以推断出正确答案。阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。【2020仿真模拟冲刺卷】Sixteen years ago I learned this lesson in the back of a New York City taxi cabHeres what happenedI hopped in a taxi, and we took off for Grand Central StationWe were driving in the right lane when, all of a sudden, a black car jumped out of a parking space right in front of usMy taxi driver slammed on his brakes, skidded, and missed the other cars back end by just inches!The driver of the other car, who almost caused a big accident, started yelling bad words at usMy taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guyAnd I mean he was friendlySo, I said, “Why did you just do that？This guy almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital！” And this is when my taxi driver told me what I now call “The Law of the Garbage Truck”Many people are like garbage （rubbish） trucksThey run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointmentAs their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump itAnd if you let them, theyll dump it on youWhen someone wants to dump on you, dont take it personallyYou just smile, wave, wish them well, and move onYoull be happy with what you didI started thinking, how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me？And how often do Itake their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets？It was that dayI said, “Im not going to do anymore”Successful people do not let Garbage Trucks take over their dayWhat about you？If you let more garbage trucks pass you by, youll be happierLifes too short to wake up in the morning with regretsSo, Love the people who treat you rightForget about the ones who dont41What happened one day when the author was taking a taxi？AThe taxi almost hit another carBThe taxi driver was injuredCThe author scolded the driver of the other carDThe author learned a lesson from the driver of the garbage truck42How did the taxi driver respond to the behavior of the driver of the black car？AHe yelled back at the driverBHe sent the driver to the hospitalCHe was friendly towards the driverDHe dumped some garbage in front of his car43What does the taxi driver think of people according to Paragraph 3？AMany people like to drive garbage trucksBMany people dump garbage wherever they likeCMany people are warm-hearted to make others happyDMany people tend to be very much depressed44What can we infer from Paragraph 4？AThe author used to have a lot of garbage trucksBThe author used to complain a lotCThe author used to have a lot of moneyDThe author used to be a good manager45According to the passage, what should you do if people “dump garbage” on you？AIgnore them and go on with our own workBTry our best to persuade them not to do that againCTell them to dump the garbage in the right placeDTake over their work and carry the garbage to somewhere else【参考答案】41-45ACDBA【2020高考英语二诊考试】请阅读下列短文，从每篇短文后所给各题的A，B，C，D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。Coffee is a powerful beverageOn a personal level，it helps keep US awake and activeOn a much broader level，it has helped shape our history and continues to shape our cultureCoffee didnt take off until the l400s when people figured out they could roast its seedsBy the l500s，the drink had spread to coffeehouses across the Arab worldWithin another l50 years，it took Europe by storm“It actually had a major impact on the rise of business，” historian Mark Pendergrast saysCoffeehouses became a spot not just to enjoy a cup but to exchange ideasThe insurer Lloyds of London was founded hundreds of years ago in one of Londons 2,000 coffeehousesLiterature，newspapers and even the works of great composers like Bach and Beethoven were also spawned(涌现)in coffeehousesIt is often said that after the Boston Tea Party of l773，when American colonists attacked British tea ships and threw boxes of tea into the harbor，Americans universally switched over to drinking coffeeIn a letter John Adams wrote to his wife，Abigail，the Founding Father claims his love of tea but says he will have to learn to embrace coffee instead，because drinking tea had become a symbol of not loving the countryFor all the upsides coffee has brought th
