【解析】
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了英国著名的伦敦塔桥的相关信息。
【1】考查冠词。句意:塔桥是伦敦的一个象征,它建于1886年至1894年之间,横跨泰晤士河并靠近伦敦塔。此处是泛指,表示伦敦的“一个”象征,symbol是以辅音音素开头的单词,应使用不定冠词a。故填a。
【2】考查谓语动词。句意:塔桥是伦敦的一个象征,它建于1886年至1894年之间,横跨泰晤士河并靠近伦敦塔。分析句子结构可知,cross是谓语动词,该句介绍塔桥横跨泰晤士河,应使用一般现在时的第三人称单数形式。故填crosses。
【3】考查介词。句意:因为这一点,人们有时会将塔桥与上游0.8公里处的伦敦桥混淆。be confused with是固定短语,意为“与……混淆”。故填with。
【4】考查名词的数。句意:塔桥是Bridge House Estates拥有和维护的五座伦敦桥梁之一。five修饰可数名词复数形式。故填bridges。
【5】考查宾语从句。句意:两个沉重的石块沉入河床以支撑该建筑,其中包含超过7万吨的混凝土。介词of后面是一个宾语从句,从句中缺少主语,指物,应使用what引导宾语从句。故填what。
【6】考查过去分词。句意:这座桥由两座桥塔组成,这两座桥塔在上层通过两个通道绑定在一起,这两个通道的建造是为了支撑重量。bridge towers承受tie的动作,应使用过去分词作后置定语。故填tied。
【7】考查时态和语态。句意:这座桥由两座桥塔组成,这两座桥塔在上层通过两个通道绑定在一起,这两个通道的建造是为了支撑重量。通道被建造是在过去发生的事情,应使用一般过去时的被动语态。故填were built。
【8】考查形容词。句意:桥面可供车辆和行人自由通行。be accessible to是固定短语,意为“使用,接近”。is后接形容词作表语,access的形容词是accessible。故填accessible。
【9】考查定语从句。句意:2012年6月,桥上悬挂了一组奥运五环,用以标志距比赛开始还有一个月的时间,在其后面,沿着泰晤士河上方138英尺的桥长,安排了30名古典音乐家进行演奏。分析句子结构可知,空格处引导定语从句,指代先行词Olympic rings在从句中作介词behind的宾语。故填which。
【10】考查祈使句。句意:来参观伦敦的这个地标,您将更进一步享受美丽。“祈使句+and+简单句”是固定句式,and后的简单句表示祈使句产生的结果,祈使句开头使用动词原形。故填Come。

【题目】 This season, the bushfires in Australia have burned more than 12.35 million acres of land. At least 25 people have been killed and 2000 homes destroyed. According to the BBC, this is the most casualties(伤亡) from wildfires in the country since 2009. The University of Sydney estimates that 480 million animals have died in South Wales alone.
Zeke Hausfather, an energy systems analyst and climate researcher at Berkeley Earth, said warmer temperatures and extreme weather have made Australia more susceptible to fires and increased the length of the fire season. “The drier conditions combined with record high temperatures in 2019 created main conditions for the disastrous fires. Australia’s fires were worsened by the combination of those two. 2019 was the perfect storm for being the warmest year on record for Australia and the driest year on record for Australia,” Hausfather added on Friday.
Kevin Trenberth, a senior scientist at the US National Center for Atmospheric Research, said warmer ocean temperatures are also contributed to more variable weather around the world. Trenberth believes that global warming contributed to energy imbalances and hot spots in the oceans, which can create a wave in the atmosphere that locks weather patterns in places, causing longer rain events in Indonesia, for example, and at the same time contributing to drought in Australia. He said that once an area experiences drought conditions for two months or more, it increases the risk of fires catching and spreading. Those changing weather patterns due to global warming make drought events longer.
Climate experts stress that climate change is not the only factor in the severity of wildfires. How land is managed can also impact the amount of fuel available for fires. Practices like controlled burns and other factors can impact the risk to people and property, such as warning systems and the type of development in a given area. Changing those policies has great potential to limit future damage from wildfires along with changes to how fire management resources are dispatched(派遣).
【1】What do the numbers in paragraph 1 show?
A.The causes of Australian fires.
B.The results of Australian fires.
C.The damaged areas of Australian fires.
D.The property destruction of Australian fires.
【2】Which of the following best explains “more susceptible to” underlined in the second paragraph?
A.Quick to adapt to.B.Sure to cause.
C.Sensitive to.D.Easy to be protected from.
【3】What can we infer from Trenberth's research?
A.Global warming is the root cause of the bushfires.
B.Longer dry weather contributes to global warming.
C.Warmer ocean temperatures promote fires spreading.
D.The imbalanced energy leads to the temperature rising.
【4】What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph?
A.To stress the effects of Australia fires.
B.To show the methods for controlling burns.
C.To predict the seriousness of Australia fires.
D.To provide some advice about reducing damage.

【题目】阅读下面材料,在题后空白处填入适当的内容(每空一词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
Many well-established bookshops have closed and that trend is continuing today, despite their efforts 【1】 (survive) by offering a cafe or children's activities as well.
There are three main reasons for this trend. First, increasingly more people【2】 (give)up reading over the past ten years. Second, quite a high percentage of people 【3】 continue reading have changed from reading paper books to e-books. Third? of the 【4】 (limit) number of those who continue reading paper books, a high percentage buy them online instead of from physical bookstores.
Bookstores are providing leisure activities and coffeehouses inside. However, as 【5】recent survey shows, these measures seem to be of little help. It would be a shame if physical bookstores were to disappear 【6】 (complete). Bookstores are more than “places selling books", they are cultural palaces. A city 【7】 bookstores is not culturally rich.
However, bookstores cannot survive the fierce market【8】(compete) and they are failing. The economic burden is so heavy and their profit so thin【9】they cannot continue existing. In order to prevent bookstores from totally 【10】 (disappear) , both the government and the society should help find good ways.

【题目】How to Overcome Procrastination (拖延症)
If you've ever put off an important task, you know it wouldn’t be fair to describe yourself as lazy. This is just procrastination.
“Procrastination” is derived from the Latin verb procrastinare — to put off until tomorrow. But it's more than just voluntarily delaying. 【1】. It means doing something against our better judgment.
We must realize that procrastination is about emotions, not productivity. 【2】. Nor are we able to overcome it only by learning ways of self-control. It has to do with managing our emotions in a new way.
【3】. This is what researchers found. Students who were able to forgive themselves for procrastinating when studying for a first exam ended up procrastinating less when studying for their next exam. They concluded that self-forgiveness might guarantee future success. It allows students to move pass their improper behavior and focus on the next exam without burden.
Another choice is to make your temptations (诱惑) less attractive. 【4】. We can put obstacles between ourselves and our temptations to create a sense of frustration or anxiety. If you keep checking your social media, say, your WeChat, delete those apps from your phone for a while.
Researchers also suggested that we make the things we want to do as easy as possible for ourselves. 【5】, sleep in your exercise clothes.
A.That may be easier said than done
B.One choice is to explore our curiosity
C.If you feel like running early in the morning
D.So we can’t just download a time management app
E.One option is to forgive yourself when you procrastinate
F.Procrastination also came from the ancient Greek word akrasia
G.It’s still easier to change our surroundings than changing ourselves
