It was a frightening, yet fun experience. My granddad was the one who taught me, and he helped me when I got hurt. The first time I got on a bike, I had no idea what I was doing, and just about everything went wrong. My granddad told me to just put my feet on the pedals and start, pedaling(骑自行车). He also told me he would hold onto the back of the bike the whole time, yet he didnt.As soon as I started trying to balance myself, he let go. I happened to look back just then. I was scared to death that I was going to fall and hurt myself. When I was scared, my mind went blank from pedaling, and I just wanted off. I forgot how to use the brakes(车闸) and fell right off the bike. My granddad kept encouraging me to get up and try again, and after about 15 minutes, I finally stopped crying, got up and tried again.As soon as I started pedaling again, my pants got caught in the chain, and I fell flat on my face and hit my nose. Since that happened, my granddad decided to call it a day and try again the next morning. The next morning I woke up bright and early, and was very eager to try to ride my bike. My nose felt better, so I wasnt that afraid of falling anymore.Though I knew there were a lot of difficulties on the way to mastering the skills in riding a bike, l believed I could do well with my granddads help. After all, riding a bike was what I wanted to do eagerly.21. How was the author when he was on the bike first?A. He didnt know where he would be going.B. He thought balancing himself was easy.C.

The Great Moment When I Stayed with My GranddadBA couple in their 60s has travelled 12,000 miles across 16 countries from Britain to China riding their bikes the entire way. Grandparents Peter and Chris stepped on the long journey after deciding to “do something a bit different”. They traversed (横穿) cities, deserts, mountains and everything in between across Europe, the Middle East and the East Asia. The married couple of 37 years enjoyed themselves with delicious local food and spent most nights inside a tiny tent put up wherever they could find shelter.Peter, 66, said the moment when they finally had a look at the famous Great Wall after a year and a half of cycling 30 miles a day was “really exciting”. At the end of their journey, the special pair didnt fly home but instead choose to book a cabin (舱) inside a 400m-long container ship. The final part was a three-week voyage from Singapore across the Indian Ocean and into the Mediterranean Sea before arriving at Southampton.“You never know what the day is going to bring. All you know is that you are going to get on your bike and cycle. Every day is an adventure and every day is new. Overall, the experience is absolutely unbelievable, ” Peter said.Peter and Chris initially set out to cycle from Britain in January 2017 but were forced home. They had cycled all the way to Hungary when Peter slipped on tiles and broke his leg. After seven months of recovery, the couple set out again in Britain. They finally arrived in China in November 2018.Both Peter and Chris agreed that the best part of the entire trip was coming across the kindness of strangers along the way, many of whom invited the couple for food and drink. Chris, 64, said, “It was a wonderful experience, particularly wonderful because of the amazing people we met along the way.”24. Whats the couples purpose of taking the long journey?A.

Peter fell ill suddenly in Hungary.27. Whats the best part of the trip for the couple?A. The beautiful scenes. B. The help from others.C. The delicious food and drink. D. The kindness from other cyclists.CWomen are more miserable（悲惨的）than men for almost their entire lives and are happier only after the age of 85, according to a large NHS survey. Growing numbers of British people are reporting unhappiness, the survey found, with women more likely to report serious problems at almost every age.Twenty-eight percent of women aged 16-24 have mental（精神上的）health problems, compared with 16 percent of men, the survey of 8,000 people found. While this gap becomes smaller between 25 and 34, when 18 percent of both sexes have probable mental disorders, women become unhappier as they enter middle age.Kate Lovett, dean of the Royal College of Psychiatrists, said that women may be more miserable because they “are still more likely to bear the caring responsibilities at home”. This duty may lessen in old age, when they are no longer responsible for children and elderly parents at the same time. Sixteen percent have serious problems over the age of 65, falling to 14 percent over 85.Nineteen percent of men of this age appear to have a mental problem. Kate explained, “Men who are single are more likely to develop mental problems and men at this age may be more likely to be on their own.”“Thankfully, women are more likely to speak out about their mental health problems and ask for support from services.” Stephen Buckley, of the Charity Mind, said. This may explain why far fewer women than men kill themselves for mental health problems.The survey also found that youth mental illness is up almost half since 2012 and one in four young women suffers from a mental health condition. The reasons for rising rates of mental illness are yet to be found. If the rates of a physical disease were rising so quickly, it is difficult.to believe that we would be so slow finding out why.28. Whats the main idea of the text?A. Women are generally unhappier than men until 85.B. Women devote much more to the family than men.C. Mental health problems increase gradually with age.D. Mental health problems can be solved easily by women.29. According to Kate, why do women feel unhappier in middle age?A. They probably live alone and feel lonely.B. They begin to have serious health problems.C. They have no one to talk to about their problems.D. They have too many duties as a parent and daughter.30. How does the author sound in the last paragraph?A. Hopeful.B. Curious. C. Concerned.D. Determined.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。Are you a happy person or an unhappy person?If youre an unhappy person, please remember that happiness is a choice. 31 .

Early childhood education mainly focuses on learning through playing to develop the childs physical, sensory （感官的）, communicational and social development. Early childhood education has become a concern of the government, who pushes poor children to be formally trained before they are old enough for kindergarten.There are good reasons for the government to push early childhood education. Studies have shown that orphans （孤儿）who did not receive good care and education become developmentally delayed, causing failure in school, and even in life. Further studies show that poor children who take part in Head Start programs are more prepared for school, less likely to end up in Special Education classes, and are less likely to receive public help or go to prison.There are also negative parts to putting a child in formal education programs too early. Time Magazine online explains that the younger the child, the less his chances of catching up with first-grade work. ” I have personally seen many children of my generation who went to Head Start programs become discouraged and bored with school before they finished high school. Yet parents have been sure that the earlier the child starts school, the better he or she is, so they push to start children earlier.Actually while early formal education of poor children does show great gains in the early elementary years, studies also show that this head start is really a false start , as the gains are lost in middle and high school years. It seems that environment is a bigger factor（因素）on lifes success than early education. Head Start programs have not achieved its original goal in closing the achievement gap（差距）in poor and middle school children. Perhaps it is time to find other ways to close that gap. 参考答案听力：15 ABCBB 610 ABABC 1115 AABAC 1620 AABCB阅读 A篇：21-23 CCAB篇：24-27 ADAB C篇：28-30 ADC 七选五： 3135 AFGDC完空：3640 CADBD 4145 CDBAC4650ADABC 5155 CDBAB语法填空56.who/that 57.amazing 58.easily 59.an 60.had been refused 61.phoning 62.arrived 63.it 64.but 65.failure第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分）Dear Susan, Im glad to hear that youre interested in Chinese culture.

Yours, Li Hua概要写作： Early childhood education, which poor children have been pushed by the government to receive, aims to foster childrens all-around development. Studies show these children may perform better in school and are less likely to get in trouble in future life. However, those who get it too early may struggle with school work and feel frustrated and bored with school. Besides, the gains from it get lost quickly and fail to narrow the achievement gap among
