2021年全国新高考“八省联考”高考英语适应性试卷
一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共37.5分）
A
In my everyday life, I am on an ongoing journey to figure out different ways to reduce my carbon footprint on the planet. A carbon footprint is the measure of influence our activities have on the environment, in particular climate change. It is calculated by the amount of greenhouse gas we produce in our daily lives. Fortunately, nowadays it is much easier to make eco-friendly lifestyle choices than, let's say, 20 years ago. But one question has been on my mind a lot lately：is it better to buy new eco-friendly products or used traditionally produced goods？
After doing some research, I have decided that some things are better new and others are better used. Let me try to explain.
A carbon footprint is made up of two parts, the primary footprint and the secondary
footprint. The primary footprint is a measure of our direct emissions （排放）of carbon dioxide （CO2）from the burning of fuels, including household energy consumption and transportation. The secondary footprint is a measure of the indirect CO2 emissions from the whole lifecycle of products we use - those related to their production and breakdown.
Based on this understanding, we have a good deal of control and responsibility over our carbon footprint. Things like dishes, clothes and furniture fall into the "secondary
footprint" group, so less is more and we can focus on finding used goods to avoid the added production. However, for the car and the other appliances （设备）that we need we can go with new, energy-saving models. I heard somewhere that electronics and
appliances give off 90% of their carbon footprint after they leave the factory. So it seems most reasonable to go for the energy-saving models. The main concern here is the amount of energy that goes into the making of new products and whether or not that extra carbon is worth the footprint the product will make once it gets to you.
1.What is the text mainly about？______
A. What appliances to buy to save energy.
B. What a carbon footprint means in our life.
C. How to identify different carbon footprints.
D. How to make eco-friendly lifestyle choices.
2.What do we know about the secondary carbon footprint？______
A. It is related to our consumption of fuels.
B. It is made when we are buying the products.
C. It is less harmful than the primary carbon footprint.
D. It is counted as ours though not directly made by us.
3.Which of the following helps reduce our carbon footprint according to the author？
______
A. Using second-hand textbooks.
B. Using old and expensive cars.
C. Buying new but cheap clothes.
D. Buying new wooden furniture.
4."The footprint" underlined in the last sentence refers to the CO2 produced in ______ .
A. using the product
B. recycling the product
C. making the product
D. transporting the product
B
Magic is a form of entertainment that is based on pretending to do things that are
impossible. The magician is a specially trained actor. He tries to make the audience
believe that he has the power to do things which are against the laws of nature.
Magic shows are entertaining as long as the audience does not discover how the tricks are done. The magician usually depends on his skill with his hands, on his knowledge of
psychology, and, sometimes, on mechanical devices （机械装置）. Since magic
performance is meant to trick people, the use of psychology is important. The magician must keep people from noticing all the movements of his hands and from thinking about the secret parts of his equipment. He must also lead the audience to draw false conclusions.
The magician's success depends on the fact that many things seen by the eye are not the things that matter.
Two basic magic tricks are making objects seem to appear and making objects seem to disappear. A combination of these two tricks makes for some interesting effects. For
example, the magician puts a small ball under one of several cups. The ball then seems to jump from one cup to another or to change colour. What actually happens is that the
magician, employing quick hand movements or a mechanical device, hides one ball.
While doing this he talks to the audience and waves a brightly coloured cloth with one
hand. The audience is too busy watching the cloth and listening to the magician's words to notice that his other hand is hiding the ball.
Another favourite trick is to cut or burn something,and then make it appear whole again.
What actually happens is that the magician makes the cut or burned object disappear by quickly hiding it while the audience watches something else. Then he "magically" makes it appear whole again by displaying（展示）another object that has not been cut or burned.
5.What is the author's main purpose in writing the text？______
A. To promote a magic show.
B. To teach people to be magicians.
C. To explain the art of magic.
D. To praise the talents of magicians.
6.Which of the following is important for a successful magic trick？______
A. Moving stage equipment.
B. Directing the audience's attention.
C. Applying high technology.
D. Keeping the performance in secret.
7.What does the author focus on in the last two paragraphs？______
A. Providing examples.
B. Making a summary.
C. Drawing comparisons.
D. Explaining a concept.
8.What can we infer from the text？______
A. Mechanical devices are expensive.
B. Most magicians employ assistants.
C. It takes practice to perform magic.
D. Small objects are magicians' favourite.
C
The average bear, it seems, is getting ever smarter. First, it turned out that at least one can use a comb. Now it appears that some can count, too.
Jennifer Vonk, of Oakland University, in Michigan, and Michael Beran, from Georgia State University, set three American black bears the task of distinguishing between
numerically larger and smaller groups of dots （点）on a computer screen. In return for
a food reward one bear, Brutus, would touch the more heavily dotted pattern with his nose.
The others, Bella and Dusty, would touch the screen with their claws （爪子）.
As the researchers report in Animal Behavior, the bears did best with patterns where the coloured dots did not move and where more of them also took up a larger coloured area.
This could be explained by the bears' distinguishing the different areas of colour rather than truly counting the dots. However, the three bears managed to pick out the bigger number of dots even in pairs of patterns where fewer dots took up a larger area.
Moving patterns, where each dot followed its own path around the screen, were more of a challenge. But Brutus, at least, was not defeated. He seemed to be counting mobile dots even when the scientists tried to mislead him by moving the total coloured area of the dots at the same time.
It is not entirely surprising that bears should have a high degree of intelligence. They face
a lot of challenges when trying to get food. They are, however, always alone, and so do not
have the complex social systems that contribute to animal smarts. Perhaps, then, their maths skill developed because they cannot count on their friends for help.
9.What task did the scientists set for the three bears？______
A. Distinguishing different dot patterns.
B. Figuring out different colours of dots.
C. Putting the dots into differently coloured groups.
D. Picking out the group with a larger number of dots.
10.For the bears, the task was easier when ______ .
A. the coloured dots were moving slowly
B. the dot patterns were regular in shape
C. the dots followed a path on the screen
D. more dots covered a larger coloured area
11.What may explain the bears' high degree of intelligence？______
A. They learn skills from other animals.
B. They face life challenges on their own.
C. They feed on a diverse range of food.
D. They have complex social networks.
12.What can be a suitable title for the text？______
A. Bears Taught to Distinguish Colours
B. New Evidence of Bear Intelligence Found
C. Three Bears Learned How to Count
D. The Smartest American Black Bear Brutus

38.阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

During this past year, I've had three instances of car trouble. Each time these things
happened,I was sick of the way most people hadn't bothered to help. One of those times, I was on the side of the road for close to three hours with my big Jeep. I put signs in the windows,big signs that said NEED A JACK （千斤顶），and offered money. Nothing.
Right as I was about to give up, a Mexican family in a small truck pulled over, and the father bounded out.
He sized up the situation and called for his daughter, who spoke English. He conveyed through her that he had a jack but that it was too small for the Jeep, so we would need something to support it. Then he got a saw （锯子）from the truck and cut a section out of a big log on the side of the road. We rolled it over and put his jack on top, and we were in business.
I started taking the wheel off, and then, if you can believe it, I broke his tire iron. No
worries：He handed it to his wife, and she was gone in a flash down the road to buy a new tire iron. She was back in 15 minutes. We finished the job, and I was a very happy man.
The two of us were dirty and sweaty. His wife prepared a pot of water for us to wash our hands. I tried to put a ＄20 bill in the man's hand, but he wouldn't take it, so instead I went up to the truck and gave it to his wife as quietly as I could. I asked the little girl where they lived. Mexico, she said. They were in Oregon so Mommy and Daddy could work on a fruit farm for the next few weeks. Then they would go home.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；

"The secondary footprint is a measure of the indirect CO2 emissions from the whole lifecycle of products we use-those related to their production and breakdown.（第二种足迹是表示我们使用的产品在整个生命周期中间接排放的二氧化碳，这些是和他们的生产和排放有关的） "可知，第二种碳足迹虽然不是我们直接产生的，但是也是我们使用的产品释放出来的，也是要归结到我们身上的。

故选D项.
（3）A.推理判断题。

根据第四段中
"Things like dishes, clothes and furniture fall into the "secondary footprint" group, so less is more and we can focus on finding used goods to avoid the added production."可知，像盘子，衣服和家具这样的物品是属于 "第二类型的足迹"，所以是越少越好，我们应该注重寻找用过的物品来避免额外的生产。

二手书是属于和衣服等可以二次使用的物品，符合题意。

故选A项.

根据第四段中
"The main concern here is the amount of energy that goes into the making of new products an d whether or not that extra carbon is worth the footprint the product will make once it gets to you. （主要的问题是这些投入在制造新产品时的能源以及这种额外的碳是否值得它到你手里以后，所产生的碳足迹） "可知，footprint在其后定语从句
the product will make once it gets to you充当make的宾语，意思是"这种碳足迹就是产品到你手里之后，你使用中所产生的"。

由此推知，划线词组the footprint指的是"产品使用过程中产生的二氧化碳"。

故选A项.
作者通过研究得出答案，有些时候是新型环保产品好，有时候是另一种更好。

【解析】（1）G. 细节理解题。

根据上文
"Apps （short for applications） are becoming increasingly popular nowadays, and for good reason. They can help you out in just about every area of your life, whether it's keeping fit, co mmunicating with friends, or even learning a language.（如今，应用程序正变得越来越流行，这是有原因的。

他们可以在你生活的方方面面帮助你，无论是保持健康，与朋友交流，甚至是学习一门语言）"以及后文
"Here's what you should think about before downloading an app for language learning.（以下是你在下载一款语言学习应用程序之前应该考虑的事情）"可知，上文提到了应用程序
的好处，后文则提到在下载之前应该考虑一些事情，故本句与上文构成转折，说明需要知道如何正确使用应用程序才能真正受益。

G选项中them指代上文Apps.故G选项"然而，你需要知道如何正确地使用它们才能真正受益"符合语境，故选G项。

（2）E. 细节理解题。

根据上文
"Any seasoned language learner will tell you that the beauty of mastering a foreign language i s the world which it opens up to you. This is a world of diverse sources of information, from newspaper and books to TV， radio, music and even real people. Would you limit yourself to one medium in your native language？（任何一个经验丰富的语言学习者都会告诉你，掌握一门外语的美妙之处在于它为你打开的世界。

这是一个信息来源多样的世界，从报纸、书籍到电视、广播、音乐，甚至是真实的人。

在你的母语中，你会把自己限制在一种媒介上吗）"可知，上文提到了学习语言有各种不同的媒体可供选择，且上文提出了一个

故F选项"最好的应用程序会根据你的行为进行自我调整"符合语境，故选F项。

（4）C. 推理判断题。

根据小标题"Make it social（使其具有社交性）"以及后文
"I mean social for real.（我的意思是现实意义上的社交）"可知，后文提到了"使其具有社交性"真实的意义，可知本句应当是在说明与后文意思相反的情况，C选项中I don't mean 与后文I mean相对应。

故C选项"不，我不是说在网上公布你的进展"符合语境，故选C 项。

（5）A. 推理判断题。

根据上文
"If I may speak sincerely, the combination of app, language school, Jim, evening out, and a c hoice book or two proved extremely effective.（坦率地说，app、language school、Jim、evening out和一两本精选书的结合证明是非常有效的）"可知，上文提到了一种有效的方法，言下之意，作者推荐这种做法，A选项中it指代上文the combination of。

A选项"我推荐"符合语境，故选A项。
