AFrom an innocent children's cartoon character to a top cultural icon,Peppa Pig,a British preschool animated TV series,has undergone an amazing journey in adapting to Chinese culture and China's market.2015In June,the Peppa Pig TV series was introduced to the Chinese market by Entertainment One and first aired on the CCTV Children's Channel.Shortly after its publication,Peppa Pig attracted billions of views on social media platforms like iQiyi,Youku and Tudou.2016The Peppa Pig TV series was broadcast on the CCTV Children's Channel for a second round. It also gained more viewers on the Golden Eagle Animation Channel,Hunan TV.2017The phrase"Peppa Pig Girl"became one of the hottest buzzwords on China's Internet.It refers to a girl who holds a positive attitude toward life even though she tends to be lazy in her daily life. She might look a bit silly and often have tasty food as a top priority on her mind.2018Rumors claimed that Peppa Pig was banned from Douyin,China's major video sharing platform,saying it"violates(违反)the community regulations and has not passed censorship(审查制度)".In May,however,representatives from Douyin said the app was not forbidding Peppa Pig. 2019According to Entertainment One,more than40million Peppa Pig books have been sold since its second round broadcast on CCTV.In the year of the Pig,more companies are adding Peppa-themed elements to their products for promotion.21.Since______,more than40million Peppa Pig books have been sold.A.2015B.2016C.2017D.201822.What does the passage mainly talk about?______A.Peppa Pigs journey to become a Chinese cultural image.B.Peppa Pigs high economic value in China.C.The causes of the great popularity of Peppa Pig TV series.D.The Introduction of Peppa Pig to the whole world.23.What can we lean about Peppa Pig according to the passage?______A.The TV series was first broadcast on Hunan TV.B.Food is the favorite of a Peppa Pig Girl,who is silly.C.Year of the Pig will help promote the sales of the Peppa-themed products.D.Peppa Pig was banned in Douyin because it broke the law.BSeveral years ago,my mother spent about two weeks in a Montreal hospital following an operation.She was well on the road to recovery and she was wholly determined to return home as soon as possible-then something changed.What followed was as confusing to me as it was to her. She forgot what day it was or who had just visited her.She lost her appetite and her motivation to do the exercises that were helping her heal.I turned to doctors in search of answers,but no one could explain these changes.It wasn't until I came across Sydney Loney's essay"State of Confusion"that I finally found a disease that seemed to fit:hospital-acquired delirium(HAD医院获得性精神错乱).Every year,thousands of patients leave Canadian hospitals with HAD.The causes of the condition aren't fully understood but are believed to be partly because of poor nutrition,disturbed sleep and the use of some devices which can cause injury.It can happen to anyone,anywhere. There's the87-year-old woman who broke her hip and then forgot why she was in the hospital;another elderly woman who started seeing waterfalls coming from the ceiling after being admitted. HAD was first identified in the1960s,but symptoms in today's patients are still mistaken for everyday signs of aging.HAD may look like dementia(痴呆),but it is a serious confused state, while dementia is a condition characterized by memory loss.Most importantly,HAD is usually caused by something related to the outside of one's body-which means it could,in theory,be prevented.I hope my mother's story provides guidance for readers who have experienced similar situations,and that its knowledge helps protect patients during their hospital stays.24.When did the author know what disease her mother got?______A.After reading a relevant article.B.After consulting doctors.C.After asking other patients for advice.D.After seeking medical service.25.The two examples in paragraph3are used to prove that______.A.the aged are the major victims of HADB.people with HAD have different symptomsC.HAD is common among patients admitted to hospitalsD.women in hospital are more likely to suffer from MAD26.We can know from the text that HAD is a disease______.A.which first appeared in the1960sB.whose cause is still not known for sureC.whose symptoms are the same as those of dementiaD.which has something to do with people's inner body27.What will the author most probably discuss in the missing part following para4?______A.Infection of HAD.B.Causes of HAD.C.Characteristics of HAD. D.Prevention of HAD.CLast week,Vodafone started a test of the UK's first full5G service,available for use by businesses in Salford.It is part of its plan to trial the technology in seven UK cities.But what can we expect from the next generation of mobile technology?One thing we will see in the preparation for the test is lots of tricks with the new tech.Earlier this year,operators paid almost£1.4billion for the5G wavelengths,and to compensate for that cash, they will need to catch the eye of consumers.In September,Vodafone used its bit of the range to display the UK's first hologram(全息)call.The Manchester City captain Steph Houghton appeared as a hologram in Newbury.It isn't all holograms,however:5G will offer faster internet access.with Ofcom(英国通讯管理局)suggesting that video that takes a minute to download on4G will be available in just a second.The wider application is to support connected equipment on the"internet of things"-not just the internet-enabled fridge that can reorder your milk for you,but the network that will enable driverless cars and delivery drones(无人机)to communicate with each other.Prof William Webb has warned that the technology could be a case of the emperor's new clothes.Much of the speed increase,he claims,could have been achieved by putting more money in the4G network,rather than a new technology.Other different voices have suggested that a focus on rolling out wider rural broadband access and addressing current network coverage would be more beneficial to the UK as a whole.Obviously,5G will also bring a cost to consumers.It requires a handset for both5G and4G, and the first5G-enabled smart phones are expected in the coming year.With the slow pace of network rollout so far,it is likely that consumers will end up upgrading to a new5G phone well before5G becomes widely available in the next couple of years.28.Why does Prof William Webb say"the technology could be a case of the emperor's new clothes"?______A.He is in favor of the application of the new technology.B.5G will bring a cost to consumers in their daily life.C.5G helps people communicate better with each other.D.He prefers more money to be spent on4G networks.29.The underlined word"addressing"in the fourth paragraph has the closest meaning to______.A.making a speech toB.trying to solveC.managing to decreaseD.responding to30.The last paragraph indicates that______.A.it'll take several years to make5G accessible to the public in the UKB.5G service shows huge development potential and a broad marketC.customers are eager to use5G smart phones instead of4G onesD.it's probable that5G network rollout is speeding up in Britain31.What do we know about the text?______A.Vodafone is successful in spreading the5G service.B.Steph Houghton appeared as a hologram by4G.C.The application of5G will make life much easier.D.5G phones are available in rural areas of the UK.DIt was late August when I got a call from a grandmother.She lives in Seeley Lake,Montana, and she has heard we have air purifiers(净化器)with high-efficiency particulate air(HEPA) air-cleaners that can help with smoke.She needs one for the baby's room.I explained we didn't have any and told her how to purchase one.She coughed and went silent with disappointment before asking how much they cost.Almost every person I talk to in Seeley Lake has this cough."The family doesn't have much money,"she said,but she promised to order a filter for the child.Small filters-ones that can clean a bedroom of up to75square feet-cost about﹩70each.The next day,the wildfire that had been burning for weeks in the Lolo National Forest, northeast of town,moved closer to the woman's neighborhood,and the county sheriff's office evacuated(疏散)the area.I wondered whether the air-cleaner would be there when the family returned home.I knew the smoke would be.As an air-quality specialist with the Missoula City-County Health Department in Montana,my job is to understand air pollution,control it as much as possible,and help people protect themselves from its effects.I focus on smoke management:issuing permits for outdoor burns and updating residents about what to expect from the smoke when wildfires send it our way.Never had we seen so many wildfires so close to home for so many weeks.There are six classes on the Environmental Protection Agency's Air Quality Index(指数):good,moderate, unhealthy for sensitive groups,unhealthy,very unhealthy,and dangerous.Seeley Lake's air reacheddangerous class in18days last summer.Last year was troubled by wildfires around the country.The fires that struck Northern California alone killed44people and caused more than﹩9billion in damage.But this isn't just a recent problem,nor is it limited to the West.Wildfires hit49states in2017,including a swath from Florida to Virginia.More than9million acres burned nationwide,compared with the yearly average of6.5million acres.32.Why did the grandmother make a call to the author?______A.To prevent the wildfire.B.To help her make a move.C.To ask for an air purifier.D.To get information about air pollution.33.How did the woman feel about the author's reply?______A.Angry.B.Hopeful.C.Excited.D.Disappointed.34.What's the author's purpose of writing paragraph5?______A.To add some background information.B.To summarize the previous paragraphs.C.To introduce a new topic for discussion.D.To make the readers realize the situation.pared with the yearly average,the burned acres nationwide in2017rose by______.A.about49%B.about38%C.about72%D.about52%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。
