I was in the classroom, but I wasnt there to learn to write, read or even speak. When it was my turn to read, I wanted to hide. I was 13 years old, but I already hated being who I was.I had an English teacher, Mr.Creech, who knew I couldnt read. In one of my first lessons the teacher said that anyone who had a reading age below six had to stand up. I felt so embarrassed. But at the same time, it made me realize that I needed to change the situation. I was determined it wouldnt happen again. Later that day, Mr.Creech encouraged me and promised he would try his best to help me learn to read. From then on, I never gave up practicing reading.Then when I was 41 years old, one day, I planned to fly back to Texas to visit my friends and family. On my way from the airport, I saw Mr.Creech buying himself a drink. I rushed over and reached into my pocket to pay for him. “Do I know you？” he asked. “Yes, sir, you do know me，” I answered excitedly. “My name is Anthony Hamilton. You taught me English.” The look on his face told me that he remembered the boy hed once encouraged.“Im so glad I had a chance to see you，” I said. “And Mr.Creech, I have great news to share.” I told him I had learned to read. But that wasnt all. I had become a published author and an active speaker. “The next time you get another Anthony Hamilton in your classroom, please encourage him to read as well，” I added. The experts say what once worried me has a name：dyslexia(诵读困难). But I can tell you it was a lack of desire for education. 4Why did the author want to hide?ABecause he felt sorry for himself. BBecause he hated being laughed at.CBecause he couldnt read at all. DBecause he didnt have a ticket.5Which of the following could best describe Mr. Creech?AConsiderate and dutiful. BDemanding and enthusiastic.CEmotional and dedicated. DFriendly and ambitious.6Why couldnt the author read before meeting Mr.Creech?ABecause his reading age was not long enough.BBecause his parents didnt teach him how to read.CBecause he was afraid of reading before the class.DBecause he didnt have inner driving force to learn to read.7What can we infer from the passage?AMr. Creech taught two students called Anthony Hamilton.BThe author had become a published author and an active speaker.CDyslexia was the underlying reason that made the author unable to read.DThe author was grateful to Mr. Creech.C2020大连高三一模 Emilia Dobek traces her interest in space and the universe back to third grade when she and her father watched a blood moona total lunar eclipse(月食) on the roof of their house.Now a seventh grader at East Prairie Elementary School, Dobek recently won the national Discovery Education Lockheed Martin Beyond Challenge by designing a space station for travelling to Mars.She says that night watching the lunar eclipse started a strong desire in her that has yet to run out of fuel. So when her teacher Andrea Smeeton received information about the national challenge, Smeeton said she immediately had one student in mind.“I knew she would love the challenge and that she would go way beyond in her search，” Smeeton said. “She immediately started researching bone density(密度) of astronauts and how to have food on Mars.”“My design will ensure the safety of the astronauts but also make sure their comfort is out of this world，”Dobek says.Dobeks design calls for building the MSS or Mars Storage Station to put the supplies in. It also includes the SGF or SelfGrowing Farm, and she details how it would work with the elements on Mars.Then there is physical and leisure activity for the astronauts under Dobeks design. A simulator(模拟装置) allows astronauts to choose their exercise machine and virtual reality environment. Rooms have circular ceilings so astronauts will be able to watch downloaded shows and even see places on Earth, such as their homes.“I want to tell other kids to follow their passions，” Dobek said. “Whatever they want to do, they should push for it and always try their best.”9Dobek first became interested in space when _.Ashe was still a seventh grader Bshe studied at a junior high schoolCshe lived on the top of their house Dshe watched an eclipse of the moon10Smeeton recommended that Dobek take the challenge because _.Ashe knew Dobek liked challenges in lifeBshe had no other students interested in MarsCDobek knew how to research bone density of astronautsDshe was sure that Dobek would have outstanding performance11What does Dobek focus on when designing the space station?AThe environment on Mars. BThe safety of the supplies.CThe activities for astronauts. DThe comfort of the astronauts.D2020成都第三次诊断 Climate change is perhaps the key issue of our time. Often, however, it is presented to us as being so abstract that it seems impossibly distant. For those of you looking for something a little more concrete, a new report suggests that the effects of climate change may significantly affect coffee.The report, put out by The Climate Institute, describes the effects of climate change on various coffeegrowing nations and the resultant effects on the plants and those who grow them.Coffea arabica plants, which produce 70% of all commercial coffee, can be adversely affected by even a halfdegree change in typical weather conditions. This sensitivity to temperature puts the plant at increased risk of the effects of climate change.In Central America the average temperature has risen by a full degree Celsius since 1960. In Ethiopia the average temperature has increased by 1.3 degrees. This increase is enough to have notable effects on the plants. In Tanzania the productivity per hectare of coffee has fallen by half since the 1960s due to changes in temperature.Indeed, studies claim that by 2050 the area of the world suitable for growing coffee will be cut by half. Coffee production is likely to then be pushed to higher elevations(海拔) to take advantage of lower temperatures, but this will not be enough to make up for lost lowland areas.Coffee is the second most traded goods by developing nations, and the inability of producer nations to export it could cause dramatic chain reactions in their economies. Millions of people make a living in the production, processing, transport, and sale of coffee; their livelihoods would stand to take a blow as growing areas decrease and prices rise.As the temperature keeps rising, your cup of coffee will become much more expensive, and it may also carry an aftertaste more bitter than usual, for all those workers in the coffee belt left without the means to make a living as conditions worsen. Not only that, but the economic effects will cost the West millions in increased foreign aid.12What does the underlined word “adversely” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?ASlightly. BTemporarily. CHarmfully. DGradually.13Why will people have to grow coffee in highland areas?ATo adapt to the change of temperature.BTo increase the quality of the products.CTo reduce the cost of coffee production.DTo get access to water supply more easily.14What conclusion can we draw from the last two paragraphs?AThe rich will get richer and the poor poorer.BSmall changes may have large effects in general.CDeveloped countries ought to aid poor countries.DCoffee trade will eventually disappear in the world.15How does the author feel about the future of coffee production?ACautious. BWorried. CUnconcerned. DHopeful.第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。2020昆明质量检测 Is there a best way to pack clothes?
