Here are some of the places that almost every person wants to see in their life. Santorini This is one of the most amazing places in the world. It is said to h

2、ave been destroyed in the 16th century. It has been rebuilt and its beauty increases with every passing day. There are a lot of islands in Greece and sunbathing on any of these would be an unforgettable experience. The Capilano Suspension Bridge An amazing place to visit in the world is the Capilano

3、 Suspension Bridge. This bridge is located in Vancouver in British Columbia, a province of Canada. Its beauty appeals to visitors from all over the world. It's almost 140 meters long and 70 meters above the river. Rome Another beautiful place to visit is the ancient city of Rome in Italy. It is

4、also known as the center of Western civilization. This city was founded in 753 BC. The Colosseum (羅馬斗獸場(chǎng)), which is one of the world's most symbolic monuments, is also in Rome. The Taj Mahal It is also a good choice to visit the Taj Mahal in India. It is called the monument of love and built to s

5、how Mughal Emperor Shah Jeha's love for his wife. It is located on the south bank of the Yamuna River. Its ivory-white color attracts many tourists and it is one of the miracles of the Mughal art of building.21What can visitors do in Santorini?AGo sunbathing. BVisit the monument of love.CClimb t

6、he suspension bridge. DExperience western civilization.22To which country does the Capilano Suspension Bridge belong?AItaly. BGreece. CEngland. DCanada.23What do we know about the Taj Mahal from the passage?AIts roof is made of ivory.BIt is a typical Mughal style building.CIt was built by Mughal Emp

7、eror Shah as his tomb.DIt is located on the north bank of the Yamuna River.B The cola wars became a cultural phenomenon. Credit for that goes to Donald Kendall, PepsiCo's brilliant former boss, who died on September 19th aged 99. A gifted salesman, he rose quickly through the ranks from his star

8、t on the bottling line to become the firm's top sales and marketing executive at the young age of 35. Seven years later he was named CEO. In 1974 he invested in the Soviet Union, which allowed Pepsi to become the first Western product to be legally sold behind the iron curtain. By the time he re

9、signed as boss in 1986, PepsiCo's sales had shot up nearly 40 times, to $ 7.6 billion. His legacy continues to shape the industry. Mr. Kendall offered a mix of strategic vision, principled leadership and marketing talent. Two years after taking charge he acquired Frito-Lay, a leading producer of

10、 snacks, giving PepsiCo an advantage of diversity that continues to this day. PepsiCo brought in $ 67 billion last year in sales compared to Coca-Cola's $ 37 billion. But his most famous move was the all-out marketing blitz (閃電戰(zhàn)) against Coca-Cola, long the global market leader in non-alcoholic

11、drinks. The two firms had competed for decades, but they mostly fought low-grade battles. Mr. Kendall changed that, by forcing both companies into an advertising arms race. In 1975 Coca-Cola spent around $ 25 million on advertising and PepsiCo some $18 million. By 1985 those figures had shot up to $

12、 72 million and $ 57 million, respectively. In 1995 Pepsi outspent Coke by $112 million to $ 82 million. This was a risky strategy for both cola competitors but it paid off by helping non-alcoholic drinks win a greater "share of throat". Last year Coca-Cola and PepsiCo remained in the lead

13、ing position as usual. Also, the cola wars benefited both companies by turning them into "the world's best marketers". Today a decades-long addiction to cut-price quantity growth has been replaced by a focus on income and profits.24What was Donald Kendall's first position in PepsiC

14、o?ACEO. BA worker. CA salesman. DMarketing executive.25What can we learn about Cola companies from the passage?APepsiCo has always been ahead of Coca-cola in sales.BCoca-Cola preferred low-grade battles to marketing wars.CCoca-Cola bought a snack firm to enrich its product diversity.DPepsiCo spent $

15、 30 million more than Coca-cola in advertising in 1995.26Why does the author list the figures in the fourth paragraph?ATo prove the success of both Cola companies in advertising products.BTo suggest both Cola companies spent too much money in advertising.CTo describe how PepsiCo got ahead of Coca-Co

16、la in the fierce marketing wars.DTo confirm marketing wars between the Cola companies were a wise move.27What is the passage mainly about?ADonald Kendall was to blame for the cola cultural phenomenon.BDonald Kendall was the most successful boss in PepsiCo history.CDonald Kendall started the cola bli

17、tz wars and achieved great success.DDonald Kendall's marketing strategies benefited both Cola companies.C Britain is the sixth fattest country within the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). For more than a decade, several Conservative prime ministers have declared obes

18、ity (肥胖) a national emergency and promised to take thorough action, only to produce disappointing plans that fall far shy of what is required. It should not have taken a disease like Covid-19 to ram home the awful consequences of the UK's obesity. Obesity, as well as its associated conditions of

19、 diabetes (糖尿病) and high blood pressure, is strongly associated with a higher risk of death from Covid-19 and will have undoubtedly been a factor in the UK having the highest Covid death rate in Europe. As the Prime Minister, Boris Johnson's experience of catching the virus and being admitted to

20、 ICU has reportedly resulted in a complete change in him, who has previously prided himself on his dislike to an over-controlling state. The government is expected to set out a new strategy this week, aimed at reducing obesity levels both in the next few monthsahead of a possible second wave of infe

21、ctionsand the longer term. This apparent change is welcome, but only if it results in a complete change in the government's approach, which doesn't rely on personal responsibility but on much tougher regulation, as with tobacco and alcohol. There is abundant evidence about what is needed to

22、cut obesity and in recent years report after report, including from Public Health England and the former chief medical officer, have called for urgent action. Yet these calls were ignored by Conservative ministers who have seemingly put the food and drink industry's financial interests over the

23、health of the nation.28What have Conservative prime ministers done with obesity in the past ten years?AThey have denied it is a national emergency.BThey have called for immediate action on it.CThey have taken thorough steps to control it.DThey have made unsatisfying plans to reduce it.29What does th

24、e underlined phrase "ram home" in the second paragraph probably mean?AMake people rather tired of. BMake people fully aware of.CMake people highly skeptical of. DMake people deeply ashamed of.30What will the British government probably do next?AIt will probably issue a new strategy to cut

25、obesity.BIt will probably lay less stress on financial interests.CIt will probably set stricter limits on tobacco and alcohol.DIt will probably take action to reduce Covid-19 death rate.31What's the best title for the passage?AObesity, an Urgent Issue in the UKBUK, a Country Suffering from Covid

26、-19CUK, a Country Ready for a Complete ChangeDObesity, a Cause of Highest Covid Death RateD Robots are getting better at doing human jobs. That's probably good for the economybut there are some serious downsides, too. Machines are expected to displace about 20 million manufacturing jobs across t

27、he world over the next decade, according to a report released by Oxford Economics, a global forecasting and quantitative analysis firm. That means about 8.5% of the global manufacturing workforce could be displaced by robots. The report also notes that the move to robots tends to create new jobs as

28、fast as it automates them; however, it could contribute to income inequality. The use of robots is on the rise: at this point, every new robot that is installed (安裝) displaces 1.6 manufacturing workers on average, according to the Oxford Economic model. Robots are becoming cheaper than many human wo

29、rkers, in part because of the falling costs of machines. And they are increasingly capable of functioning in more complex processes and varied contexts. On top of that, the demand for manufactured goods is rising. One potential downsize to the robot revolution: automation could increase income inequ

30、ality. "This great displacement will not be evenly distributed around the world, or within countries," according to the report. "Our research shows that the negative effects of robotization are disproportionately (不成比例地) felt in the lower-income regions compared with higher-income reg

31、ions of the same country." The workers who drive knowledge and innovation within the manufacturing industry tend to be concentrated in larger cities, and those skills are harder to automate. That's why urban areas will deal better with the increased automation, according to the report. On t

32、he whole, the increased use of automation will likely create new jobs at a pace comparable to the jobs that will be lost, which cancels out fears about permanent job destruction, according to the Oxford study. That said, the poorer regions that are expected to lose the most jobs will probably not be

33、nefit equally from this new job creation due to a gap in skills. That will lead to increased income inequality between cities and rural areas, as well as between regions.32What "downside" does the author mainly discuss?APeople will not be able to find jobs in the future.BRobots will finall

34、y take the place of people.CDisplacement by robots will increase income inequality.DRobots are becoming cheaper than many human workers.33What do the workers need to do to compete with robots in the future?ATo make robots help them with the harder work.BTo improve their innovative ability and knowle

35、dge.CTo move to larger cities or more developed countries.DTo make their skills faster and easier to be automated.34What is the main idea of the last paragraph?AThe increased use of automation will create more jobs.BPeople needn't worry about permanent job destruction.CThe poorer countries will

36、not benefit from automation.DThe income gap between cities and rural regions will widen.35What can we conclude from the passage?ARobots should be banned in the future because of the disadvantages.BRobots can do more and better than humans in complicated processes.CThe increasing need for manufacture

37、d goods partly contributes to robotization.DThe negative effects of robotization will be evenly distributed around the world.第二節(jié)（共5小題） 閱讀下面短文，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。 Life can be challenging for teens.

45、has proven that isn't always true. At age 8, Glennie began taking piano lessons, and she also began losing her hearing. She was totally deaf when she joined her school orchestra (管弦樂隊(duì)) at 12.
