His father was a successful touring actor. Because of that, Eugene spent his early childhood in hotels, on trains, and backstage. Although later in his life he grew to hate his father for not giving him security in his early years and a loving, comfortable family, he had the theater in his blood.As a student, O'Neill went to boarding schools but spent the summers in a moderate house his family owned. He left PrincetonUniversity in 1907, only about one year after he entered it, to start what he later called his real education in "life experience". At the age of 24, he was hired as a reporter and poetry column writer for the New London Telegraph.O'Neill didn't cut a figure in playwriting until the summer of 1916. Before that, he had written awkward plays that were hardly accepted by the mainstream of American theater. While O'Neill was only one of those whose plays were produced by the theater, he led the group to success because of his contribution within the next few years. Between 1916 and 1920, the theater produced all of O'Neill's one-act sea plays. By the time his first full-length play, Beyond the Horizon, was produced on Broadway on February 2, 1920 at the Morosco Theater, the young playwright already had a small reputation.Theater critics spoke highly of Beyond the Horizon for its tragic realism. The play brought O'Neill more public attention, as well as his first Pulitzer Prize, apart from which he won another three for Anna Christie, Strange Interlude, and Long Day's Journey into Night. Over the next two decades, O'Neill continued to gain reputation nationally and globally. He became the most widely produced dramatist after Shakespeare and Bernard Shaw.4. What might inspire O'Neill's passion for theater?A. His father's career.B. The support of his familyC. Hotel rooms he had lived in.D. Stories he had heard on trains.5. Why did O'Neill drop out of PrincetonUniversity?A. He didn't want to study in a boarding school.B. He wanted to receive real education from life.C. He got a job from the New London Telegraph.D. He was unsatisfied with the university education.6. What does the underlined phrase “cut a figure" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Show interest. B. Hold a degree. C. Attract attention. D. Receive an award.7. What can we learn about O'Neill's Beyond the Horizon?A. It drew theater critics attention to tragic realism.B. It inspired him to compose another three dramas.C. It increased his reputation in the field of theater.D. It made him the most widely produced dramatist in history.CChinese cuisine is widely known and enjoyed all around the world. Who doesn’t long for a favorite Chinese dish? But there is one interesting concept concerning Chinese food which is almost unheard of in the West, and which is becoming increasingly ignored by the youth of the East—the ancient custom of “tonic food”.Tonic food is food which is consumed to improve one’s well-being or avoid sickness. For instance, it was once the custom for new mothers to eat a sesame oil (麻油) hot pot every day for the first month after giving birth. It was believed that this dish would benefit the muscles, reduce pain, improve circulation, stimulate sweating, and warm the body. Some foods, such as goat meat and spinach, are seen as “hot”, while others, such as Chinese cabbage and radish, are seen as “cold”. One should be careful not to eat too much of either “hot” or “cold” food. However, how much “hot” or “cold” food one should eat depends on the time of the year, how the food is prepared and what it is prepared with, and the individual’s health.The custom of employing tonic foods for a healthier life also influences the catering industry. Chinese herbal medicines, such as wolfberry (枸杞), can be found on many a restaurant menu, either added to fruit tea or as a beneficial addition to a dish. These herbs attract customers, such as over-worked office staff, in need of a modest pick-me-up.So, whether you need to boost your strength with a large helping of chicken soup, or increase your mental powers with a serving of pig’s brain soup, you may find that this ancient Chinese custom could be just the tonic you were looking for.8. What is the present situation of tonic food?A. It is catching less attention.B. It is enjoyed by many young people.C. It is well known worldwide.D. It is becoming increasingly popular.9. What is believed to benefit new mothers?A. Chinese cabbage.B. Fruit tea.C. Sesame oil hot pot.D. Pig’s brain soup.10. Which of the following best explains “catering” underlined in Paragraph 3?A. Medicine.B. Restaurant.C. Education.D. Fashion.11. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. The Charm of Chinese CuisineB. The Popularity of Tonic FoodC. An Introduction to Chinese Tonic FoodD. Differences Between hot Food and Cold FoodDNow many countries work towards a carbon-neutral future, hoping to achieve the real green growth and change. The current UK government had originally set out plans to become carbon-zero by 2050. And in a new announcement regarding the UK’s green economic recovery, the Prime Minister has committed to accelerating offshore wind by 2030.In a recent speech, Britain’s Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced that the government will invest in clean energy, promising that £160m will be dedicated to building wind turbines (渦輪機(jī))to help the country “build back greener”. It’ll create 2,000 jobs in construction, and support 60,000 more, by upgrading ports and factories to build the turbines. He announced that “we believe that in 10 years’ time offshore wind will be powering every home in the country.”In Boris Johnson’s speech, he said the UK would become “the world leader in clean wind energy” and perhaps also in its further green recovery plans. Attention has been paid to wind, as it is a limitless resource on the island that is Britain. Plans included employing new floating offshore technology, where large farms could be placed further out to sea.Before this announcement, climate activists and organizations have been urging world governments to include climate change concerns in their economic recoveries. Organizations such as the International Energy Agency worked out a sustainable energy plan that provided a blueprint on how governments could encourage economic growth with climate change in mind, by moving towards areas such as clean energy and creating jobs within this area. In the UK’s economic recovery plan, the government rolled out a scheme that allowed home owners to access a grant that would enable them to upgrade their homes with energy-saving improvements.Reported in The Guardian, executive director of the environmental NGO Greenpeace UK, John Sauven, said: “If carried through, the commitment would help strengthen the UK’s global leadership in this key technology. We now need to see the Prime Minister’s newly-found enthusiasm is followed through by knocking down all the barriers that the offshore wind industry faces in delivering its ambition.”12. What is the benefit of building the turbines besides providing the new energy?A. Developing the technology.B. Having more people employed.C. Getting many large farms built.D. Making all homes powered cleanly.13. What measure does Britain take when carrying out its economic recovery plan?A. Cooperate with other foreign governments.B. Build a blueprint on fighting climate change.C. Encourage the use of energy-saving equipment.D. Seek the support of the international organizations.14. Why is John Sauven mentioned in the last paragraph?A. To predict the future of Britain’s energy.B. To get people to support the government.C. To think highly of the use of wind energy.D. To comment on the new announcement.15. What might be the best title for the text?A. Britain hopes to power homes by wind farm by 2030.B. Britain takes the lead in using sustainable new energy.C. Britain calls on the world to accelerate offshore energy.D. Britain is expected to mainly use wind energy by 2030.第二節(jié) (共5小題;每小題2分,滿分10分)根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。How to live with an elderly personLiving with an elderly person has both rewards and challenges for everyone involved. 16.______.

To me, I can almost pay everything via a mobile phone, such as transportation, food and entertainment. My city has upgraded services, and we can pay bills online, including electricity, gas, water and heating. We can also enjoy reading from e-libraries, visiting virtual museums and even get medical services online. I feel the digital life has brought great convenience to us and improved our life and work in a way beyond imagination. If only I wish, I can access abundant resources and better myself academically and physically. However, it does have its downside. The biggest one is the risk of privacy and data leak, which deserves better coping. Another is that many elderly get left behind. I feel the young have a duty to help them keep up.How about the digital life in your country? Looking forward to your reply and your coming to explore our digital world one day..YoursLihua
