推理判断题。根据第四段和第五段内容叙述可知，主要讲述企业应该创造一种学习的文化，强调个人成长，让工作场所变得有动力。由此推知，雇主应该在员工内部培养一种学习文化。故选C。【33题详解】词义猜测题。根据下文“Asaresult,humanskillsmustnotbeunderestimated.Everybusinesswillneedarangeofpeoplewithavarietyofskills—notonlythosewell-versedinmath,engineering,andscience,butalsothosewithcreativemindsandleadershipqualities.(因此，人类的技能绝不能被低估。每个企业都需要具备各种技能的人才——不仅是精通数学、工程和科学的人才，还需要具有创造性思维和领导才能的人才)”可知，正确处理人与技术之间的互动将是至关重要的。由此推知，划线词paramount意思是“至关重要的”。故选A。【34题详解】推理判断题。通读全文，尤其倒数第二段“Ofcourse,it’sallwellandgoodsayingthatdigitalskillsarevital,butaworkforcewithpurelyhardskillswillnotfuture-proofabusiness.There’saneedforsoftskillsthatsupportthebroadergoal,soasnottoneglecttheothercompetenciesrequiredinadigitaltransformation:communication,criticalthinking,creativedesignskills,andleadership.(当然，数字技能是至关重要的说法很好，但仅仅拥有硬技能的员工并不能保证企业的未来发展。我们需要软技能来支持更广泛的目标，这样就不会忽视数字化转型所需的其他能力：沟通、批判性思维、创造性设计技能和领导能力)”可推知，文章的目的是讲述企业在数字化转型过程中要关注劳动力技能的提高，也不能忽视数字化转型所需的其他能力，强调硬技能和软技能结合的重要性。故选C。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，共10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。Humanshavelongtriedtoconquerwater.We’vestraightenedonce-windingriversforshippingpurposes.We’veconstructedlevees(防洪堤)alongriversandlakestoprotectpeoplefromflooding—We’veerectedentirecitiesondrainedandfilled-inwetlands.We’vebuiltdamsonriverstostorewaterforlateruse.____35____Butit’snot,arguesenvironmentaljournalistEricaGies,authorofWaterAlwaysWins.Levees,whichnarrowchannelscausingwatertoflowhigherandfaster,nearlyalwaysbreak.Citiesonformerwetlandsfloodregularly—oftendisastrously.Damsstarvedownstreamareasofsediment(沉积物)neededtoprotectcoastsagainstrisingseas.Straightenedstreamsmovefasterthanwindingones,givingwaterlesstimetoflowdownward.Andtheywashawayriverbedecosystems.Inadditiontolayingoutthisdamagedonebysupposedwatercontrol,Giestakesreadersonahopefulglobaltourofsolutionstotheseproblems.Alongtheway,sheintroduces“waterdetectives”—scientists,engineers,urbanplanners,andmanyothers.____36____Thesewaterdetectiveshavefoundwaystogivetheslipperysubstancethetimeandspaceitneedstoflow

“Itseemsthatwateriscooperativeandwillingtoflowwherewedirectit.(看来水是合作的，愿意向我们指引的方向流动。)”可推知，水貌似顺应了人类的要求，人类占了上风，C项承接上文，下文“Butit’snot,arguesenvironmentaljournalistEricaGies,authorofWaterAlwaysWins.(但《水总是赢》一书的作者、环境记者埃里卡·吉斯认为，事实并非如此。)”，C项与下文为转折关系，水总是能赢，下文引出话题。上下文衔接连贯，故选C项。【36题详解】上文“Inadditiontolayingoutthisdamagedonebysupposedwatercontrol,Giestakesreadersonahopefulglobaltourofsolutionstotheseproblems.Alongtheway,sheintroduces‘waterdetectives’—scientists,engineers,urbanplanners,andmanyothers.(除了列出所谓的治水所造成的破坏之外，吉斯还带读者踏上了一趟充满希望的全球之旅，寻找解决这些问题的办法。在此过程中，她介绍了‘水侦探’——科学家、工程师、城市规划师和其他许多人。)”可知，此处介绍了一群关注治水的人，B项“Insteadoftryingtocontrolwater,theyask:Whatdoeswaterwant?(他们不是试图控制水，而是问：水想要什么？)”，B项中的they指代上文中的“waterdetectives”—scientists,engineers,urbanplanners,andmanyothers，结合下文“Thesewaterdetectiveshavefoundwaystogivetheslipperysubstancethetimeandspaceitneedstoflowslowlyunderground.(些水侦探已经找到了一些方法，让这种光滑的物质有时间和空间在地下慢慢流动。)”可知，这些水侦探知道了水要什么，并找到了对策，上下文衔接连贯。故选B项。【37题详解】上文“InCalifornia’sCentralValley,scientistswanttofindwaystomoveunpollutedstormwaterintosubsurfacevalleysthatmakeidealaquifers(含水层).(在加州的中央山谷，科学家们想要找到一种方法，将未受污染的雨水转移到地下山谷，形成理想的含水层)”可知，通过雨水补给地下水形成理想的地下含水层，G项“Feedinggroundwatersupplieswillinturnsustainriversfrombelow,whichhelpstomaintainwaterlevelsandecosystems.(补给地下水反过来又会从地下维持河流，这有助于维持水位和生态系统。)”表明，充足的地下水能保证河流的水量，上下文衔接连贯顺畅，故选G项。【38题详解】上文“Whilesomepeopleareexploringnewwaystomanagewater,othersareleaningonancientknowledge.ResearchersinPeruarenowstudyingold-stylemethodsofwaterstorage,whichdon’trequiredams,inhopesofensuringasteadyflowofwatertoLima—Peru’spopulouscapitalthat’speriodicallyaffectedbywatershortage.(当一些人在探索管理水的新方法时，另一些人则依靠古老的知识。秘鲁的研究人员现在正在研究不需要水坝的老式蓄水方法，希望能确保水稳定地流向利马——秘鲁人口众多的首都，它经常受到水资源短缺的影响。)”可知，秘鲁的研究人员依靠古老的蓄水方式管理水，F项“Thestudymayhelpconvincethosewhofavorconcrete-centricsolutionstotrysomethingnew.(这项研究可能有助于说服那些喜欢以混凝土为中心的解 决方案的人尝试一些新的东西。)”，此处Thestudy指代上文中的秘鲁的水管理的研究，下文“‘Decisionmakerscomefromacultureofconcrete,’Gieswrites,‘inwhichdams,pipesanddesalinationfactoriesarestandard.’(‘决策者来自混凝土文化，’吉斯写道，‘水坝、管道和海水淡化工厂是标准的。’)”，下文中的Decisionmakerscomefromacultureofconcrete与F项中的thosewhofavorconcrete-centricsolutions相呼应，故选F项。【39题详解】上文“Understandinghowtoworkwith,notagainst,waterwillhelphumankindweatherthisageofdroughtandfloodthat’sbeingworsenedbyclimatechange.(了解如何与水合作，而不是与水对抗，将有助于人类度过这个因气候变化而恶化的干旱和洪水时代。)”为对上文的总结，A项“Controllingwater,Giesconvincinglyargues,isafalsebelief.(吉斯令人信服地指出，控制水资源是一种错误的信念。)”是对上一句的进一步解释，下文“Instead,wemustlearntolivewithinourwatermeansbecausewaterwillundoubtedlywin.(相反，我们必须学会用水，因为水无疑会赢。)”，A项与下文为转折关系，说明了人类与水之间的正确关系，上下文衔接连贯，故选A项。第三部分：书面表达(共两节，32分)第一节(共4小题;第40、41小题各2分，第42小题3分，第43小题5分，共12分)阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。Theysaytofindoutwhatyoureallywant,gobacktowhenyouwereachild.WhenIwasakid,Ireallywantedtobeapainter,butIwasnevergreatatit.Iwasdiscouraged,becauseinartclassesmypaintingswereneverthemostbeautiful.Inthethirdgrade,weweregivenaprojecttocreateaportrait.Iusedtheskillsandtipswewerealltaughtinclass.Afterweweredone,wepresentedourportraits.Westoodinfrontoftheclassandexplainedourtechnique.Irememberlookingatotherportraitsthinking,“Weweregiventhesameskills,whydotheirslooksoprofessionalandminelookssoamateur?”ButIstillreallyenjoyedpaintingbecauseit’saforgivingart.IfIdon’tlikewhatI’veputonpaper,Icanpaintoverit.Icanmixcolorsandmakenewones.Also,Icanreleasesomecreativejuices,usewhathasinspiredmeandallowthattopouroutofmeinawayImaynothaveimagined.ButbecauseIhavealwayswantedtopaintbeautifulpictures,Ijustdecidedtochangewhatbeautylookedlike.Ichangedwhatbeautymeanttome.Throughoutschool,theytaughtusaboutPicasso,vanGoghanddaVinci,andIneversawmyselformyartintheirworks.Theseartistswerealwayspaintingwhateverwasinfrontofthemandaroundthem.Butthat’snotwhatIsawaroundme.ThenIlearnedaboutBasquiat,whoinspiredmetopaintabstractpictures.IpaintwhenI’mmoved,andIam

考查细节理解。根据第二段“Irememberlookingatotherportraitsthinking,“Weweregiventhesameskills,whydotheirslooksoprofessionalandminelookssoamateur?”（记得看到其他肖像时，我想，“我们被赋予了同样的技能，为什么他们的看起来如此专业，而我的看起来如此业余？”）”可知，其他孩子的肖像看起来很专业，但他的肖像看起来很业余。故答案为Others’/Otherkids’portraitslookedsoprofessionaland/buthislookedsoamateur。【41题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段“WhenIwasakid,Ireallywantedtobeapainter,butIwasnevergreatatit.（我还是个孩子的时候，我真的很想成为一名画家，但我从来都不擅长。）”及第三段“ButIstillreallyenjoyedpaintingbecauseit’saforgivingart.（但我仍然非常喜欢绘画，因为这是一种宽容的艺术。）”及第六段“ThenIlearnedaboutBasquiat,whoinspiredmetopaintabstractpictures.（然后我了解了巴斯奎特，他激励我画抽象画。）”及倒数第二段“SosometimesIchannelthatpainintoart,intoapainting.（所以有时我会把这种痛苦转化为艺术，转化为绘画。）”可知，激励作者保持对艺术事业的热情的是他儿时的梦想；他相信绘画是一种宽容的艺术；他从巴斯奎特那里得到的灵感以及他可以将痛苦转化为艺术的想法。故答案为：Hischildhooddream;Hisbeliefthatpaintingisaforgivingart;TheinspirationhegotfromBasquiat;Thefactthathecouldchannelpainintoart。【42题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段“ButbecauseIhavealwayswantedtopaintbeautifulpictures,Ijustdecidedtochangewhatbeautylookedlike.Ichangedwhatbeautymeanttome.（但因为我一直想画出美丽的画，所以我决定改变美丽的样子。我改变了美丽对我的意义。）”可知，作者在想要画出美丽图画时想要改变的是美丽的样子和对美的定义，并没有尝试满足社会的标准，“sohetriedtomeetsociety’sstandards（所以他尝试满足社会的标准）”是错误的，故答案为：Theauthorhasalwayswantedtopaintbeautifulpictures,sohetriedtomeetsociety’sstandards.Sohejustdecidedtochangewhatbeautylookedlike,andhechangedwhatbeautymeanttohim./Sohechangedwhatbeautylookedlike./Buthedidn’ttrytomeetthesociety’sstandards。【43题详解】开放性试题。除了绘画，我用唱歌来表达美。通过演唱我最喜欢的歌曲，我可以表达我对生活中美好事物的热情和欣赏。此外，任何音乐元素，如歌词、旋律或押韵，都可以向观众传达美。故答案为：Iusesingingtoexpressbeauty.Bysingingmyfavoritesongs,Icanvoicemypassionandappreciationtowardsbeautifulthingsinlife.Besides,anymusicalelementslikelyrics,melodyorrhymecanconveybeautytotheaudience。第二节44.假设你是红星中学高三“传统文化社”社长李华。你校国际部留学生Jim邀请你参加他们组织的“ChinaDay”活动并做展示。请你用英语给他写一封电子邮件，内容包括：
