2014年高考高三年级英语模拟试卷_适用于新课标全国卷范文

2014高考高三年级英语模拟试卷（第I卷）总分：150分考试时间：120分钟一．阅读理解（40分）AThe time may soon come when we say goodbye to most of the world’s languages. Today humans express themselves in over 6,000 different languages. But that is quickly changing. Many scientists say that over half of these languages will disappear within the next 50 years. After 100 years, the languages used in the world will not be more than 20.Why? It is because people from different cultures live and work together much more often than before. This brings change. The languages of the world’s main cultures are replacing the languages of the smaller cultures.Most international trade takes place in world languages such as English. People respect their own cultures and traditions, but when it comes to getting a job, knowing a world language is often necessary. It may mean the difference between success and failure.Technology works on the change of languages in an even more amazing way. Modern media such as radio and television give young people in developing countries much knowledge about the world. But this knowledge doesn’t come in words from the mouths of their parents or the elders in their neighborhood. It usually comes in the language of a different culture.People in different cultures think it good for them to share a popular language. They can quickly share ideas and work together. Knowing the same language means easier communication and is a basis for trust.Is the death of a small local language such a terrible thing?The answer is maybe. Many cultures may have words for many useful things we know nothing about. If their languages die, their valuable wisdom may be lost forever.The future of the world’s languages depends on our actions now. Will we protect endangered languages or allowed them to quietly disappear?Time will have the last word.56. Scientists say that within 50 years, perhaps, there will be only _____languages in the world.A. 4,000B. over 3,000C. around 3,000D. no more than 2057. In “The languages of the world’s main cultures are replacing thelanguages of the smaller cultures,” the verb “replace” means “_____”.A. to put something back into a correct placeB. to use a second thing in place of the first thingC. to find good place for somethingD. to decide how important something is58. The passage says that if all the people in the world knew a major worldlanguage, _____.A. radio and television would all use the languageB. it would be easier for them to share their ideasC. lessons at schools would be taught in the languageD. people would respect their own culture more59. Also, the passage says that if nobody spoke the languages of smallercultures, _____.A. Many of the words for things we do not know would be lost.B. knowledge would come from the mouths of the eldersC. people would have difficult in working togetherD. there would be no smaller cultures.60. By saying “Time will have the last word,” the writer means “ _____”.A. let us wait and seeB. we have time to do somethingC. it is too late to do anythingD. it is only a problem of timeBPeople who are cheerful and relaxed are less likely to suffer from colds. It’s possible that being full of vim and vigor helps the body fight illnesses, say the researchers from Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) in Pittsburgh.“We need to take more seriously the possibility that a positive emotional style is a major player in disease risk,” says psychologist Sheldon Cohen, the study’s lead researcher.In a previous study, Cohen and his colleagues found that people who tended to be cheerful and lively were least likely to develop sniffles, coughs, and other cold symptoms.Those findings were interesting, but they didn’t prove that a person’s attitude affects whether he or she gets sick. Instead, it was still probable that a person’s underlying personality is what matters.Evidence suggests, for instance, that certain people are naturally more likely to be outgoing and optimistic, with high self-respect and a sense of2control over life. This would mean that who we are, not how we feel, finally decides our chances of catching colds.To figure out which mattered more (personality or emotions). The CMU team interviewed 193 healthy adults. The researchers talked to each person over the phone every evening for 2 weeks. They told the researchers about the positive and negative feelings that they had experienced that day.The results showed that everyone in the study was equally likely to get infected. Their symptoms, however, differed depending on the types of emotions that they had reported over the previous 2 weeks.Among those who reported good moods and had been infected with the flu virus, for example, 28 percent developed coughs and stuffy (堵塞) noses. On the other hand, those symptoms struck 41 percent of people who had been less positive. Scientists argue about whether negative emotions or positive emotions have a stronger effect on how healthy we are, For now, it can not hurt to look on the bright side more often than not.61. What is the text mainly about?A. How to get rid of colds.B. Attitude determines life.C. Smiles turn away colds.D. Different opinions about colds.62.The phrase”full of vim and vigor” underlined in Paragraph 1 probablymeans___________.A.ignorantB. Well-informedC. energeticD. in low spirits63.According to the research, persons who are likely to catch colds should bethose __________?A. Who have negative attitude towards their life.B. Who are very emotional and optimistic.C. Who are open-minded and outgoing.D. Who have trouble with their noses64.The last paragraph implies that __________.A.positive and negative emotions have good aspects.B.people who have been less positive tend to catch colds.C.Keeping an optimistic state of mind is good for health.D.positive emotions have a stronger effect on health.C高三英语第3页Comic Strips（连环漫画）For hundreds of years, artists have used cartoons to criticize bad rulers or landowners. As early as the 19th century, people produced and read books of drawing. In many ways, they were similar to modern comics. They contained stories of naughty children and playful animals. The owl（猫头鹰）and the elephant were usually wise animals, ready to give advice. The lion and the tiger were brave. The fox and the wolf were cunning（狡猾的）greedy（贪婪的）and dangerous.A century ago, an American newspaper published the first full-colour comic strip. It was so popular that sales of the newspaper, Morning Journal, increased quickly. Since then, newspapers throughout the world have included comic strips.In modern times, comics are popular in China, Japan, the USA and almost everywhere. Not even video games or CD-ROMs have reduced their popularity. Names such as Snoopy, Woodstock and Garfield are well known in dozens of countries. The Peanuts comic strip appears in over 2,000 newspapers and in more than 25 languages. People believe that its creator, Charles M. Schultz, earned US$60 million a year.Perhaps one day, you may like to create your own comic strip and become a millionaire. First, you must think of a good plot. It should be funny, exciting or interesting in some way. It should have plenty of action. Moreover, the language must be realistic and simple. The words should suit the characters in your story. One type of person might say, “Please be quiet and listen to what we have to say.” But another type of character might simply say, “Shut up and listen!”Furthermore, the characters in your story must be clear to readers. They should be obviously good or bad ---- and not a mixture of both. A leader must be stronger or cleverer than his or her followers. In many comic strips ---- especially those showing crime of adventure ---- there should also be a hero or heroine. This will attract the reader to keep on reading the story.65. The underlined word “plot” is similar in meaning to _____.A. placeB. stripC. storyD. character66. Which of the following is NOT the name of a cartoon Character?A. Snoopy.B. Peanuts.C. Woodstock.D. Garfield.67. In the 19th century, the wolf in the cartoons was NOT _____.A. cunningB. dangerousC. greedyD. brave4DMeetings don’t just eat up time in the workplace ; they actually make groups of people stupider, says new research.Working in a group makes people perform worse on intelligence tests, as some group members are so anxious about doing well that they “divert”their brain towards maintaining their social status in the group.You may joke about how committee meetings make you feel brain dead, but our findings suggest that they make you act brain dead as well, said Read Montague the study leader at Virginia Tech.Groups of volunteers showed measurable drops in IQ when asked to perform intelligence tests socially, with the results broadcast to the group.Some people performed well in the “social”tests, but others were affected badly--- and overall,performance dropped.Women appear to feel this pressure more than men---only three out of 13 female volunteers performed well in a social environment, with 10 out of 13 finding that their performance dropped.The researchers used a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner to monitor how people’s brains responded--- and found that bad performers tended to show activity in parts of their brain that dealt with emotions and anxiety.“We started with individuals who were matched for their IQ,”said Montague. “Yet when we placed them in small groups, ranked their performance on tasks against their peers, and broadcast the rankings, we saw dramatic drops in the ability of some study subjects to solve problems.”“Our study highlights the unexpected and dramatic consequences even subtle social signals in group settings may have on the individual,” said lead author Keneth Kishida.“We don’t know how much these effects are present in real-world settings. By placing an emphasis on competition, for example, are we missinga large segment of the talent pool?”68. Which of the following statements is Not true according to thepassage?A. Meetings make groups of people stupider.B. Meetings make you act brain dead.C. Meetings make people perform worse on intelligence tests.高三英语第5页D. Meetings don’t affect men’s performance in intelligence tests.69. This passage can be classified as __________.A. An advertisementB.a book reviewC. A feature storyD.a science report70.What would be the best title of the text?A. Brainstorming? More Like Brain DrainB. Brainstorming Affects People”s IQ TestC. Brainstorming Makes People Act Brain DeadD.Brainstorming Affects Women’s PerformanceE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。

ATerrie Hall, a cancer patient who made great contributions to the national anti-smoking ad campaign, died at the age of 53.When she was a young woman Terrie started smoking in high school. “I thought it was a cool thing to do.” she said. The smoking caused throat cancer and oral cancer and the surgeries and radiation treatment took away her natural voice. But they also brought out a level of bravery and strength of character that amazed all of us.In a society where women are often judged by their looks, Terrie did not hide the scars on her face caused by smoking. The scars on her jaw where part of her jaw had been cut out and on her throat where her larynx（喉）had been removed, only made her more determined to speak, especially to young people at school. She wanted young people to know the truth about tobacco.She became known around the world through her participation in CDC’s smoking ad campaign. The ad where she showed how she got ready each day—putting on her wig（假发）, putting her hands-free device in the hole in her throat—is hard to watch.Her video has become the most-viewed video ever on CDC’ YouTube pages with, over 2.5 million viewings, and has inspired more comments than any other CDC video. Her second ad, which touched on the fact that her grandchild never heard her precancerous voice, inspired thousands more to quit.Lisa Hancock, a mother of a five-year-old child and a smoker smoking one pack to two packs of cigarettes a day, said she had tried to quit many time, before, but seeing Terrie’s ad helped her realize that smoking really did cause other types of cancer besides lung cancer, and helped motivate her to quit for good health.Just a few weeks after the second ad, Terrie’s doctors, found her cancer caused by smoking bad spread to her brain. In her remaining days, she chose to keep fighting and keep working to save lives by showing the real consequences of cigarette smoking. She insisted on being filmed in hospital just two days before her death, sharing the final effects of Smoking on her body.The disease that finally took her life never touched her great spirit. That spirit, the selfless work she did and the tens of thousands of lives she saved are Terrie Hall’s great legacies.21. Terrie Hall earned the respect of the public ________.A. because she fought against cancer bravelyB. because she inspired people to quit smokingC. because she started the anti-smoking campaignD. because she was asked to be filmed in hospital22. Knowing she had cancer Terrie must be ______.A. disappointedB. confusedC. regretfulD. anxious23. What does the sixth paragraph imply?A. Terrie’s ad shook Lisa up.B. Lisa paid little attention to her kid.C. Lisa has smoked for two years.D. Terrie popularized the knowledge of cancer.24. What does the author think of Terrie ?A. She shouldn’t have been filmed in hospital.B. She must have moved the public deeply.C. She should have accepted the doctor’s advice.D. She must have caused a shock in the world.BA recent survey showed that doctors in America are warning of an obesity time bomb, when children who are already overweight grow up. So, what should we do? Exercise more? Eat less? Or both? The government feels it has to take responsibility for this expanding problem.The cheerful Mr. Pickwick, the hero of the novel by Charles Dickens, is seen in illustrations as someone who is plump and happy. In the 18th century paintings, beauty is equated （使…等同）with rounded bodies and soft curves. But nowadays being overweight is seen as indicating neither a cheerful character nor beauty but an increased risk of heart disease, stroke and diabetes.So what do you do? Diet? Not according to England’s chief medical officer, Sir Liam Donaldson. He says that physical activity is the key for reducing the risks of obesity, cancer and heart disease. And the Health Secretary John Reid even said that being inactive is as serious a risk factor in heart disease as smoking.So, having bought some cross trainers, how much exercise should you do? According to Sir Liam Donaldson, at least 30 minutes of moderate activity five days a week. Is going to the gym the answer? Luckily for those who think that running machines are boring, the Health Development Agency believes that physical activity that fits into people’s lives may be more effective. They suggest taking the stairs rather than the lilt, walking up escalators, playing active games with your children, dancing or gardening. And according to a sports psychologist, Professor Biddle, gyms “are not making the nation fit”, and may even cause harm.There’s new scientific evidence that too much exercise may actually be bad for you. Scientists at the University of Ulster have found that unsuitable exercise releases dangerous free radicals that can oppositely affect normal function in unfit people. The only people who should push their bodies to that level of exercise on a regular basis are trained athletes.So, should we f orget about gyms and follow some expert’s advice to reduce sedentary（久坐不动的）activities and increase exercise in our daily life? After all, getting off the bus a stop early and walking the rest of the way can’t do any harm! One final thought, how come past generations lacked gym facilities but were leaner and fitter than people today?25. Mr. Pickwick and the paintings of the 18th century are used as examples to show that _______.A. beauty should be overweightB. a fat man is usually a cheerful characterC. fatness was considered something good at one timeD. fatness leads to an increased risk of disease26. According to Sir Liam Donaldson, we should _______.A. go on a dietB. do regular physical activityC. give up smokingD. go to the gym27. The underlined phrase cross trainers probably refers to ________.A. people who help you do exerciseB. places where you can do exerciseC. a kind of shoesD. a form of vehicles28. What is the passage mainly about?A. how to keep fit and avoid fatness.B. increased risks for overweight people.C. the dangers of exercise in the gym.D. the benefit or a balanced diet.CThe brown widow spider became established in Southern California in early 2000 and has become part of the local spider family in urban Los Angeles and San Diego. The brown widow spider is continuing its expansion in Southern California and could possibly move northward into Central California.The brown widow is suspected to have evolved in Africa although it was first described-from South America, which adds confusion as to where it might have originated. It is a tropical and subtropical spider having established populations in Hawaii, Florida, parts of Australia, South Africa and Japan. In North America, the brown widow was restricted for many decades to the Florida peninsula. However, around the year 2000, it started showing up in other Gulf Coast states. Brown widows are now known from Texas to Georgia and South Carolina.The brown widow builds its web in protected sites around homes and in woody vegetation with branches. Some typical sites selected by brown widows for web building are empty containers such as buckets and nursery pots, mail boxes, entry way comers, under eaves, storage closets and garages, undercarriages of motor vehicles that are stationary for long periods, and the undersides of outdoor furniture. They choose places that are more exposed than sites chosen by black widows and therefore, appear to be at higher risk for interactions with humans as far as bites are concerned.One recent study demonstrates that the brown widow spider is less poisonous than other widow species. The reason for the weaker effect of brown widow bites on humans is possibly because the brown widow does not have much poison as its larger relatives, but it is really a threat to humans as to its poison. The two major symptoms or a brown widow bite were that the bite hurt when it was given and it left a red mark. These two symptoms are not much different from the bite of normal household spiders.There is no specific information regarding the control of brown widows by farm chemicals. Most current advice is what is used for controlling spiders in general. Therefore, most commercially available farm chemicals should work on brown widows. Avoiding a mess of the house and the garage should reduce nest sites for them. Also, one should store garage items in plastic bags where there might be interactions with spiders. These items include rarely worn garments such as gardening clothes and gloves, recreational items like sports equipment（i.e., baseball gloves）and other items where spiders can crawl up into holes where fingers can be inserted.29. The author wrote this article to ________.A. announce the result of a research on spidersB. introduce the ways to get rid of the spidersC. warn readers against the brown widowD. report a new finding of the widow species30. From the passage we can conclude that ________.A. the brown widow originated from AfricaB. brown widows are spreading northwardC. brown widows now can be found in all countriesD. there used to be no brown widows in North America31. The third paragraph is mainly about ________.A. the habitat preferences of the brown widowB. the characteristics of the brown widowC. the brown wido w’s web buildingD. the brown widow’s threaten to human beings32. It can be inferred that ________.A. brown widows can be killed with any farm chemicalsB. victims bitten by the brown widow needn’t see the doctorC. the brown widow has more poison than the black widowD. at present people can only control brown widow spidersD33. A student from Japan who has been studying in England for a year and intends to go tocollege in a few months will ________.A. get money if taking a first degree courseB. get money from LEA when finishing his courseC. be unable to get money from any LEAD. have to open a bank account before getting money34. A 31-year-old nurse wishes to qualify as a doctor at a university. She has worked since she was25. How much extra money will she get a year?A. None.B. ￡515.C. ￡155.D. ￡615.35.

It’s possible that being full of vim and vigor helps the body fight illnesses, say the researchers from Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) in Pittsburgh.“We need to take more seriously the possibility that a positive emotional style is a major player in disease risk,” says psychologist Sheldon Cohen, the study’s lead researcher.In a previous study, Cohen and his colleagues found that people who tended to be cheerful and lively were least likely to develop sniffles, coughs, and other cold symptoms.Those findings were interesting, but they didn’t prove that a person’s attitude affects whether he or she gets sick. Instead, it was still probable that a person’s underlying personality is what matters.Evidence suggests, for instance, that certain people are naturally more likely to be outgoing and optimistic, with high self-respect and a sense of2control over life. This would mean that who we are, not how we feel, finally decides our chances of catching colds.To figure out which mattered more (personality or emotions). The CMU team interviewed 193 healthy adults. The researchers talked to each person over the phone every evening for 2 weeks. They told the researchers about the positive and negative feelings that they had experienced that day.The results showed that everyone in the study was equally likely to get infected. Their symptoms, however, differed depending on the types of emotions that they had reported over the previous 2 weeks.Among those who reported good moods and had been infected with the flu virus, for example, 28 percent developed coughs and stuffy (堵塞) noses. On the other hand, those symptoms struck 41 percent of people who had been less positive. Scientists argue about whether negative emotions or positive emotions have a stronger effect on how healthy we are, For now, it can not hurt to look on the bright side more often than not.61. What is the text mainly about?A. How to get rid of colds.B. Attitude determines life.C. Smiles turn away colds.D. Different opinions about colds.62.The phrase”full of vim and vigor” underlined in Paragraph 1 probablymeans___________.A.ignorantB. Well-informedC. energeticD. in low spirits63.According to the research, persons who are likely to catch colds should bethose __________?A. Who have negative attitude towards their life.B. Who are very emotional and optimistic.C. Who are open-minded and outgoing.D. Who have trouble with their noses64.The last paragraph implies that __________.A.positive and negative emotions have good aspects.B.people who have been less positive tend to catch colds.C.Keeping an optimistic state of mind is good for health.D.positive emotions have a stronger effect on health.C高三英语第3页Comic Strips（连环漫画）For hundreds of years, artists have used cartoons to criticize bad rulers or landowners. As early as the 19th century, people produced and read books of drawing. In many ways, they were similar to modern comics. They contained stories of naughty children and playful animals. The owl（猫头鹰）and the elephant were usually wise animals, ready to give advice. The lion and the tiger were brave. The fox and the wolf were cunning（狡猾的）greedy（贪婪的）and dangerous.A century ago, an American newspaper published the first full-colour comic strip. It was so popular that sales of the newspaper, Morning Journal, increased quickly. Since then, newspapers throughout the world have included comic strips.In modern times, comics are popular in China, Japan, the USA and almost everywhere. Not even video games or CD-ROMs have reduced their popularity. Names such as Snoopy, Woodstock and Garfield are well known in dozens of countries. The Peanuts comic strip appears in over 2,000 newspapers and in more than 25 languages. People believe that its creator, Charles M. Schultz, earned US$60 million a year.Perhaps one day, you may like to create your own comic strip and become a millionaire. First, you must think of a good plot. It should be funny, exciting or interesting in some way. It should have plenty of action. Moreover, the language must be realistic and simple. The words should suit the characters in your story. One type of person might say, “Please be quiet and listen to what we have to say.” But another type of character might simply say, “Shut up and listen!”Furthermore, the characters in your story must be clear to readers. They should be obviously good or bad ---- and not a mixture of both. A leader must be stronger or cleverer than his or her followers. In many comic strips ---- especially those showing crime of adventure ---- there should also be a hero or heroine. This will attract the reader to keep on reading the story.65. The underlined word “plot” is similar in meaning to _____.A. placeB. stripC. storyD. character66. Which of the following is NOT the name of a cartoon Character?A. Snoopy.B. Peanuts.C. Woodstock.D. Garfield.67. In the 19th century, the wolf in the cartoons was NOT _____.A. cunningB. dangerousC. greedyD. brave4DMeetings don’t just eat up time in the workplace ; they actually make groups of people stupider, says new research.Working in a group makes people perform worse on intelligence tests, as some group members are so anxious about doing well that they “divert”their brain towards maintaining their social status in the group.You may joke about how committee meetings make you feel brain dead, but our findings suggest that they make you act brain dead as well, said Read Montague the study leader at Virginia Tech.Groups of volunteers showed measurable drops in IQ when asked to perform intelligence tests socially, with the results broadcast to the group.Some people performed well in the “social”tests, but others were affected badly--- and overall,performance dropped.Women appear to feel this pressure more than men---only three out of 13 female volunteers performed well in a social environment, with 10 out of 13 finding that their performance dropped.The researchers used a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner to monitor how people’s brains responded--- and found that bad performers tended to show activity in parts of their brain that dealt with emotions and anxiety.“We started with individuals who were matched for their IQ,”said Montague. “Yet when we placed them in small groups, ranked their performance on tasks against their peers, and broadcast the rankings, we saw dramatic drops in the ability of some study subjects to solve problems.”“Our study highlights the unexpected and dramatic consequences even subtle social signals in group settings may have on the individual,” said lead author Keneth Kishida.“We don’t know how much these effects are present in real-world settings. By placing an emphasis on competition, for example, are we missinga large segment of the talent pool?”68. Which of the following statements is Not true according to thepassage?A. Meetings make groups of people stupider.B. Meetings make you act brain dead.C. Meetings make people perform worse on intelligence tests.高三英语第5页D. Meetings don’t affect men’s performance in intelligence tests.69. This passage can be classified as __________.A. An advertisementB.a book reviewC. A feature storyD.a science report70.What would be the best title of the text?A. Brainstorming? More Like Brain DrainB. Brainstorming Affects People”s IQ TestC. Brainstorming Makes People Act Brain DeadD.Brainstorming Affects Women’s PerformanceE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。

That goes far 51 the old records.The extent of how 52 the year has been in the US has 53 some meteorologists(气象学者) who have warned about global warming.“Everybody has this uneasy feeling. This is not good,” said Jerry Meehl, a climate scientist who54 in extreme weather at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colo. “It’s a55 pleasure. You’re out enjoying this 56 March weather, but you know it’s not a good thing.”It’s not just March.“It’s been going on for several months,” said Jake Crouch, a climate scientist at NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center in Ashville, N.C.Meteorologists say an unusual combination of several weather 57 , including La Nina, was the direct cause of the warm start to 2012. While individual events can’t be 58 on global warming, Crouch said this is like the extremes that are supposed to get more frequent because of 59 climate change from the burning of fossil fuels such as coal and oil.Normally, March 60 42.5 degrees across the country. This year, the average was 51.1, which is closer to the average for April. Only one other time —in January 2006 —was the country as a whole that much 61 than normal for an entire month.In March, 62 7,775 weather stations across the nation broke daily high temperature records and another 7,517 broke records for night-time 63 .

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.（A）Marshall was a promising young artist. He painted with great feeling. His paintings were all characterized by a strong love and sympathy for people. His high school art teacher felt he had a special talent.Marshall’s father didn’t want him to be a painter, however. Mr. Donaldson wanted his son to be a stockbroker(股票经纪人). He wanted Marshall to continue the dynasty started by his great-great grandfather in 1820. The family business, Donaldson and Donaldson Inc., was now a large, successful investment firm.Mr. Donaldson felt Marshall was much too individualistic. “Listen,” he told his son, “I had no say in choosing my career. I just did what my dad told me.”“But you are good at business,”Marshall replied. “I’m not. I’m sure I would just cause trouble for you and problems for the company.” Marshall felt there was no way he could ever fill his father’s shoes. And, although he was no stranger to high society, he didn’t feel comfortable among the wealthy. He preferred the ordinary, working-class people of the city. His paintings told of their struggles and their hopes.Sometimes after school Marshall would hang around outside a factory gate. He would draw the workers as they came out at the end of their shift. Marshall wondered how they could keep doing that hard, boring work year after year. Then he realized most of them would be doing something different if they could. But their great obstacle in life was lack of education.When Marshall got home, he would take out his paintings. The paintings expressed his sympathy and respect for those hard-working people.Well, Marshall never did enter the family business. This angered his father. But as Marshall got older, his career as an artist began to take off. He became quite famous, and people paid large amounts for his “plain people” paintings.In time, this success won Marshall’s dad over. Mr. Donaldson could see his son was born to paint. Marshall was glad his father finally came around. And happily, the two began to work together after all. Twice each year they held a benefit art show.Marshall donated a number of his paintings to be sold at each show. The persuasive Mr. Donaldson got his wealthy friends and clients(客户) to attend—and to spend. The money from the art sales was used to help factory workers improve their education.65. Why didn’t Marshall’s father want Marshall to be a painter at first?A. He thought Marshall was good at business rather than art.B. He expected Marshall to continue their family business.C. He wanted Marshall to earn more money.D. He thought Marshall was individualistic.66. From the passage we can learn that ___________.A. Marshall’s choice turned out to be wrongB. Marshall’s choice affected their family businessC. Marshall’s father at last supported Marshall’s choiceD. Marshall’s father was always unhappy with Marshall’s choice67. The underlined phrase “take off” in paragraph 7 probably means “__________”.A. to take away or removeB. to go away unexpectedlyC. to stop working temporarilyD. to suddenly become very successful68. It was __________ that made Marshall a successful artist.A. his talent and diligenceB. his dad’s help with art showsC. his art teacher’s supportD. his desire to help poor people（B）To whom it may concern,I highly recommend Jane Doe as a candidate for employment.

Millions more live with adults who are sick from AIDS.Lucie Cluver from Oxford University in England has studied children of AIDS(AIDS orphaned children and children living with sick adults) in South Africa. She says children can be deeply affected by their experiences. And one of the biggest impacts we see is mental health, their psychological health. So, for example, we see that AIDS orphaned children have very much higher levels of depression, anxiety and stress disorder than children who have a live parent or children whose parents have died of other causes. Lucie Cluver says children have to live with the sense of shame connected to AIDS. Many are abused(欺负) at school or excluded from the community.Children living with sick adults are more likely to live in poverty and face physical and emotional abuse. Also, Lucie Cluver says the children often become the caregivers. They’re missing school to go and get medication. They’re often taking them to the toilet, cleaning their wounds or washing their bedclothes. So these kids find it ve ry stressful and upsetting. They’re very worried about the health and feel responsible for the health of the sick person. Close contact with sick adults can sometimes spread tuberculosis(肺结核) or other diseases. And, as Lucie Cluver said, even when the children are in school, paying attention can be difficult. It’s constantly on their minds and really making it difficult for them to do well at school. She calls for testing more children for tuberculosis. She also calls for giving more parents the drugs needed to keep them healthy longer with HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.There are programs to help children, but there is “far more to be done.” Interventions(干预治疗) and support groups are “urgently needed” for those orphaned by AIDS or living with sick adults. But the evidence for which interventions are effective “is still thin”.72. The topic of the passage is __________.A. children of AIDS doing badly at schoolB. more and more children suffering from AIDSC. children of AIDS facing mental problemsD. an increasing number of people dying of AIDS73. According to Lucie Cluver, AIDS orphaned children have very much higher levels ofdepression mainly because they __________.A. have a sense of shame connected to AIDSB. cannot focus their attention on study at schoolC. are more likely to be affected with tuberculosisD. often have to miss school to look after their sick parents74. We can infer from the last paragraph that __________.A. enough has been done for children of AIDSB. interventions prove very effective for children of AIDSC. nothing can be done to help children except interventionsD. interventions may be useful for helping children of AIDS75. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. The first case of AIDS occurred 30 years ago.B. Children whose parents are infected with AIDS often help with housework.C. Children whose parents have died of causes other than AIDS don’t have stress disorder.D. Children don’t have psychological problems when their parents are still alive with HIV. Section CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph.There is one extra heading which you do not need.Making informed choices before and during your trip is the single most important thing you can do to become a responsible traveler. With a little planning, you can improve the quality of your trip, while making a real difference to the people and places you visit.76. ______________________________Search the web and consult guidebooks to start your pre-trip homework. Look for information and resources on eco tourism. Ecotourism Explorer, TIES’ interactive online directory, makes searching for your perfect eco-holiday easy! Choose guidebooks with information on your destination’s environmental, social and political issues, and read before booking.77. ______________________________Call or email tour operators that have firsthand knowledge of the place you are considering visiting. Check the websites of all accommodations. Let tour operators/hotels know that you are a responsible consumer. Before you book, ask about their social and environmental policies. For instance - What is your environmental policy? What percentage of your employees are local citizens? Do you support any projects to benefit the local community?78. ______________________________Are the businesses you’re considering certified? Do they have eco-label ratings, or have they won eco-awards? Have you heard of the AAA or 5-star rating systems? These long-standing labels judge hotel quality and services. Many certification programs have also been created in tourism to rate the environmental and social impacts of tourism businesses. These programs are important tools for distinguishing genuine ecotourism companies, products or services from those that are merely using “eco-” as a marketing tool to attract consumers. More and more companies have earned eco-labels, and we encourage you to purchase from these businesses.79. ______________________________A growing number of tourism businesses are helping to financially and materially support community projects and offering travelers the opportunity to get involved. Many of TIES members around the globe are leading the efforts to give back to local communities and enhance the livelihoods of local people through ecotourism. We encourage you to contribute to and participate in these projects, and support those companies that are making positive impacts on the lives of local hosts.80. ______________________________Don’t Be Fooled by green-washing. “Eco” is a fashionable label used widely in the tourism industry. It sounds appealing, but much of what is marketed as “eco” is simply traditional tourism with superficial changes. So it’s important to check behind the labels.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.A finding in recent years shows that men cannot manufacture blood as efficiently as women can. This makes surgery riskier for men. Men also need more oxygen because they do not breathe as often as women. But men breathe more deeply and this exposes them to another risk. They draw more of the air into their lungs when it is polluted.Men’s bones are larger than women’s and they are arranged somewhat differently. The female walk that causes so many whistles is a matter of bone structure. A man has broader shoulders and a narrower pelvis(骨盆), which makes him walk with no waste moti on. A woman’s wider pelvis, designed for childbearing, forces her to put more movement into each step she takes with the result that she displays a bit of jiggle and sway(摇摆) as she walks.If you think a man is brave because he can climb a ladder to clean the roof, don’t forget it is easier for him than for a woman. The angle at which a woman’s thigh(大腿) is joined to her knees makes climbing difficult for her, whether it is a ladder or stairs or a mountain that she is climbing.A man’s skin is thicker than a woman’s and not nearly as soft. This prevents the sun’s radiation from getting through, which is why men wrinkle less than women do. Women have a thin layer of fat just under the skin and there is a plus to this greater fat reserve. It acts as an invisible fur coat to keep a woman warmer in the winter. Women also stay cooler in summer because the fat layer helps protect them against heat. Men’s fat is distributed differently. And they do not have that layer of it underneath their skin. In fact, they have considerably less fat than women and more muscle. 41 percent of a man’s body is muscle compared to thirty-five percent for women, which means that men have more muscle power. The higher proportion of muscle to fat makes it easier for men to lose weight. Muscle burns up five more calories a pound than fat does just to maintain itself. So when a man wants to lose weight, the pounds roll off much faster.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.) 81. What is this passage mainly about?_______________________________________________________________________________82. That men breathe more deeply can result in a risk of _____________________________.83. The female walk with a bit of jiggle and sway is caused by the fact that ____________________________________________________________________.84.

I rushed out of my classroom as quickly as possible. Looking down from the third floor of our building, I could see nobody. Where did they go? 40 , I seemed to hear 41 upstairs. I rushed there and knew that they were in the 42 , arguing.I couldn't help 43 out loud: "Brother! Brother!" He 44 me and answered, "What?" "Come here!" I shouted. He came out to me.

But that is quickly changing. Many scientists say that over half of these languages will disappear within the next 50 years. After 100 years, the languages used in the world will not be more than 20.Why? It is because people from different cultures live and work together much more often than before. This brings change. The languages of the world’s main cultures are replacing the languages of the smaller cultures.Most international trade takes place in world languages such as English.People respect their own cultures and traditions, but when it comes to getting a job, knowing a world language is often necessary. It may mean the difference between success and failure.Technology works on the change of languages in an even more amazing way. Modern media such as radio and television give young people in developing countries much knowledge about the world. But this knowledge doesn’t co me in words from the mouths of their parents or the elders in their neighborhood. It usually comes in the language of a different culture.People in different cultures think it good for them to share a popular language. They can quickly share ideas and work together. Knowing the same language means easier communication and is a basis for trust.Is the death of a small local language such a terrible thing?The answer is maybe. Many cultures may have words for many useful things we know nothing about. If their languages die, their valuable wisdom may be lost forever.The future of the world’s languages depends on our actions now. Will we protect endangered languages or allowed them to quietly disappear?Time will have the last word.56. Scientists say that within 50 years, perhaps, there will be only _____ languagesin the world.A. 4,000B. over 3,000C. around 3,000D. no more than 2057. In “The languages of the world’s main cultures are replacing the languages ofthe smaller cultures,” the verb “replace” means “_____”.A. to put something back into a correct placeB. to use a second thing in place of the first thingC. to find good place for somethingD. to decide how important something is58. The passage says that if all the people in the world knew a major worldlanguage, _____.A. radio and television would all use the languageB. it would be easier for them to share their ideasC. lessons at schools would be taught in the languageD. people would respect their own culture more59. Also, the passage says that if nobody spoke the languages of smaller cultures,_____.A. Many of the words for things we do not know would be lost.B. knowledge would come from the mouths of the eldersC. people would have difficult in working togetherD. there would be no smaller cultures.60. By saying “Time will have the last word,” the writer means “ _____”.A. let us wait and seeB. we have time to do somethingC. it is too late to do anythingD. it is only a problem of timeBPeople who are cheerful and relaxed are less likely to suffer from colds. It’s possible that being full of vim and vigor helps the body fight illnesses, say the researchers from Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) in Pittsburgh.“We need to take more seriously the possibility that a positive emotional style is a major player in disease risk,”says psychologist Sheldon Cohen, the study’s lead researcher.In a previous study, Cohen and his colleagues found that people who tended to be cheerful and lively were least likely to develop sniffles, coughs, and other cold symptoms.Those findings were interesting, but they didn’t prove that a person’s attitude affects whether he or she gets sick. Instead, it was still probable that a person’s underlying personality is what matters.Evidence suggests, for instance, that certain people are naturally more likely to be outgoing and optimistic, with high self-respect and a sense of control over life. This would mean that who we are, not how we feel, finally decides our chances of catching colds.To figure out which mattered more (personality or emotions). The CMU team interviewed 193 healthy adults. The researchers talked to each person over the phone every evening for 2 weeks. They told the researchers about the positive and negative feelings that they had experienced that day.The results showed that everyone in the study was equally likely to get infected. Their symptoms, however, differed depending on the types of emotions that they had reported over the previous 2 weeks.Among those who reported good moods and had been infected with the flu virus, for example, 28 percent developed coughs and stuffy (堵塞) noses. On the other hand, those symptoms struck 41 percent of people who had been less positive. Scientists argue about whether negative emotions or positive emotions have a stronger effect on how healthy we are, For now, it can not hurt to look on the bright side more often than not.61. What is the text mainly about?A. How to get rid of colds.B. Attitude determines life.C. Smiles turn away colds.D. Different opinions about colds.62.The phrase”full of vim and vigor” underlined in Paragraph 1 probablymeans___________.A.ignorantB. Well-informedC. energeticD. in low spirits63.According to the research, persons who are likely to catch colds should bethose __________?A. Who have negative attitude towards their life.B. Who are very emotional and optimistic.C. Who are open-minded and outgoing.D. Who have trouble with their noses64.The last paragraph implies that __________.A.positive and negative emotions have good aspects.B.people who have been less positive tend to catch colds.C.Keeping an optimistic state of mind is good for health.D.positive emotions have a stronger effect on health.CComic Strips（连环漫画）For hundreds of years, artists have used cartoons to criticize bad rulers or landowners. As early as the 19th century, people produced and read books of drawing. In many ways, they were similar to modern comics. They contained stories of naughty children and playful animals. The owl（猫头鹰）and the elephant were usually wise animals, ready to give advice. The lion and the tiger were brave. The fox and the wolf were cunning（狡猾的）greedy（贪婪的）and dangerous.A century ago, an American newspaper published the first full-colour comic strip. It was so popular that sales of the newspaper, Morning Journal, increased quickly. Since then, newspapers throughout the world have included comic strips.In modern times, comics are popular in China, Japan, the USA and almost everywhere. Not even video games or CD-ROMs have reduced their popularity. Names such as Snoopy, Woodstock and Garfield are well known in dozens of countries. The Peanuts comic strip appears in over 2,000 newspapers and in more than 25 languages. People believe that its creator, Charles M. Schultz, earned US$60 million a year.Perhaps one day, you may like to create your own comic strip and become amillionaire. First, you must think of a good plot. It should be funny, exciting or interesting in some way. It should have plenty of action. Moreover, the language must be realistic and simple. The words should suit the characters in your story. One type of person might say, “Please be quiet and listen to what we have to say.” But another type of character might simply say, “Shut up and listen!”Furthermore, the characters in your story must be clear to readers. They should be obviously good or bad ---- and not a mixture of both. A leader must be stronger or cleverer than his or her followers. In many comic strips ---- especially those showing crime of adventure ---- there should also be a hero or heroine. This will attract the reader to keep on reading the story.65. The underlined wo rd “plot” is similar in meaning to _____.A. placeB. stripC. storyD. character66. Which of the following is NOT the name of a cartoon Character?A. Snoopy.B. Peanuts.C. Woodstock.D. Garfield.67. In the 19th century, the wolf in the cartoons was NOT _____.A. cunningB. dangerousC. greedyD. braveDMeetings don’t just eat up time in the workplace ; they actually make groups of people stupider, says new research.Working in a group makes people perform worse on intelligence tests, as some group members are so anxious about doing well that they “divert” their brain towards maintaining their social status in the group.You may joke about how committee meetings make you feel brain dead, but our findings suggest that they make you act brain dead as well, said Read Montague the study leader at Virginia Tech.Groups of volunteers showed measurable drops in IQ when asked to perform intelligence tests socially, with the results broadcast to the group.Some people performed well in the “social” tests, but others were affected badly--- and overall,performance dropped.Women appear to feel this pressure more than men---only three out of 13 female volunteers performed well in a social environment, with 10 out of 13 finding that their performance dropped.The researchers used a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner to monitor how people’s brains responded--- and found that bad performers tended toshow activity in parts of their brain that dealt with emotions and anxiety.“We started with individuals who were matched for their IQ,”said Montague. “Yet when we placed them in small groups, ranked their performance on tasks against their peers, and broadcast the rankings, we saw dramatic drops in the ability of some study subjects to solve problems.”“Our study highlights the unexpected and dramatic consequences even subtle social signals in group settings may have on the individual,”said lead author Keneth Kishida.“We don’t know how much these effects are present in real-world settings. By placing an emphasis on competition, for example, are we missing a large segment of the talent pool?”68. Which of the following statements is Not true according to the passage?A. Meetings make groups of people stupider.B. Meetings make you act brain dead.C. Meetings make people perform worse on intelligence tests.D. Meetings don’t affect men’s performance in intelligence tests.69. This passage can be classified as __________.A. An advertisementB.a book reviewC. A feature storyD.a science report70.What would be the best title of the text?A. Brainstorming? More Like Brain DrainB. Brainstorming Affects People”s IQ TestC. Brainstorming Makes People Act Brain DeadD.Brainstorming Affects Women’s PerformanceE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。

Her works were，like her，simpleand full of the vigor of her days in Nebraska，where she grew from child to youngwomanhood and where she developed a deep love for the treeless land of the great plain withits wild flowers，wheat fields and rivers.“It's a rather strange thing about the flat country，”she wrote later. “It takes hold ofyou，it leaves you perfectly cold. A great many people find it very dull；they like a churchtower，an old factory，a waterfall，the country all made to look like a German Christmascard…But when I come to the open plain，something happens. I'm home. I breathedifferently.”21.

2014届高三第三次大联考(新课标卷) 英语试题 Word版含答案

2014届高三第三次大联考（新课标卷）英语试卷第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题：每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

AWhile we are on the subject of crime, our listener question this week comes from Mohamad Firouzi in Iran. He wants to know about the history of Alcatraz Island and the prison that once operated there.Alcatraz Island is in the harbor of San Francisco, California. It is best known for being a federal prison, which was also called “The Rock.” It was once the most famous prison in America. Alcatraz was a military prison from the late eighteen fifties until the nineteen thirties. Then it became a federal prison for the country’s worst criminals. These included murderers, bank robbers and kidnappers. One of the main reasons federal officials chose Alcatraz Island to detain these prisoners was because they thought it would be impossible for prisoners to escape.Cold, deep and dangerous waters surround the island. Also, the distance between the island and San Francisco is too far for most humans to swim. No prisoner was ever officially reported to have successfully escaped.However, in nineteen sixty-two, three men broke out of the prison. Each man worked very hard at night for many months to cut through the stone wall of his cell. They made false heads out of paper, paint and hair. On the night of June eleventh, the men placed the heads in their beds to make it look as if they were sleeping. Then, the prisoners escaped through the holes in their cells to get to the water. The men were never seen or heard from again. It is believed that they drowned while trying to swim to San Francisco.The prison closed in nineteen sixty-three because of the high cost of keeping prisoners there and the need for major repairs. The last prisoners were moved to other jails.In nineteen seventy-two, the United States Congress passed a bill creating the Golden Gate National Recreation Area. Alcatraz Island and the old prison are part of this area.Each year, more than one million people visit Alcatraz to see the prison ers’ cells and listen to stories about the jail’s history. But unlike the prisoners who once lived there, visitors can escape from the prison whenever they want and return back across the harbor to San Francisco.21. The text mainly tells us________.A. about the history of Alcatraz Island and the prison there.B. about the history of Alcatraz Island.C. about a military prison.D. about the subject of crime.22. Why did federal officials make Alcatraz the most famous prison in America?A. Because no prisoner successfully escaped from the prison.B. Because Alcatraz was Alcatraz Island.C. Because Alcatraz was a military prison.D. Because cold, deep and dangerous waters surround the island.23. Paragraph 5 is written to ________.A. tell us the three prisoners escaped the prison.B. prove prisoners couldn’t successfully escape from the prison.C. tell us how prisoners escaped the prison.D. tell us the three prisoners could make false heads out of paper, paint and hair.24. Now Alcatraz ________.A. is a place of interest.B. detains some prisoners.C. is where the United States Congress is.D. is still the most famous prison.BLast Thursday, I had the pleasure of visiting with Deputy Superintendent Pedro Martinez, Principal Neddy Alvarez and her staff at Western High School, located in the Clark County School District, in Las Vegas. The school undertook a comprehensive effort to completely transform the culture of the school and added a motivated group of talented teachers. Western altered（改变）the school day to add opportunities for students to get additional credits toward graduation and created smaller learning groups. As part of these comprehensive changes, the school’s leadership also focused on four main reforms to transform their school.First, improvements started with the change in the relationship between the school and students to create a caring atmosphere at the school. Using the “Capturing Kids’ Hearts” strategies, school leadership and teachers began building a trusting environment and students and families described seeing changes aimed at improving student outcomes and ensuring the success of every student. The school day was altered to add more options for students to obtain additional credits toward graduation. Students and teachers were grou ped into “houses,” so that smaller groups of teachers and counselors(辅导员)could create one-on-one relationships with students. Teachers and counselors said that the altered school day provides time to address student’s individual concerns and develop individualized learning plans to put every student on a path to graduation.The school also made changes to encourage parents to support school and encourage real dialogues between parents and the teachers and leaders at Western. Funded in part through the United Way, the school created a family engagement center to get parents more involved in their children’s education, particularly parents of English language learners. Parents like Ally Gaona and Martha Mendez told me that they had a voice and the tools to eng age in their children’s learning and that they recognize that the main responsibility for their children’s learning must rest with the parents. Parents were passionate about these positive changes and said that these changes signaled to the entire the community that the school was serious about family engagement.25. What is the main purpose of the passage?A.To attract people to the school.B. To talk about the school reforms.C. To introduce the schoolD. To introduce the relationship between the school and students.26. How many main reforms are mentioned in the passage?A. TwoB. ThreeC. FourD. Five27. Students and teachers were grouped into “houses in order to ___.A. provide time to address student’s individual concerns.B. add more options for students to obtain additional credits toward graduation..C. create one-on-one relationships with students.D. develop individualized learning plans to put every student on a path to graduation.28. Which statement is the right according to the passage?A. Parents didn’t support the reforms.B. The reforms intended to improve student outcomes and ensure the success of every student.C. The school asked parents to donate their money.D. the school was not serious about family engagement.CBEIJING - China will build a nation-wide network within three to five years to monitor the impact of air pollution on health, a latest step to deal with a persistent smog crisis in big cities, an official said.A total of 43 monitoring spots will be set up in 16 provinces and municipalities frequently engulfed by smog so as to facilitate research on air pollutants in different regions, the impact on the health of vulnerable groups and the study of related diseases, said Xu Dongqun, an official with the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention.With funds allocated by the central government, the study will provide reference for preventive efforts to reduce the PM 2.5, Xu said. Thick and dangerous smog have hit 17 provinces and municipalities with a population of 600 million this year. One of the major cities is Beijing, which has been shrouded in smog for several days during the ongoing seven-day national holiday in 2013.China recently issued a 1.75 trillion-yuan (284.2 billion U.S. dollars) plan to deal with the worsening air, improving air quality within five years in order to decrease the number of heavily polluted days and improve the air in major city clusters.29. China will build a nation-wide network in order to_________.A. monitor the impact of air pollution on healthB. improve air qualityC. improve air pollutionD. increase the PM 2.530. The underlined word “persistent” means“________”.A. 短时的B. 持久的C. 短暂的D. 停留的31. China will take measures to deal with air pollution except________.A. China recently issued a 1.75 trillion-yuan (284.2 billion U.S. dollars) planB. set up monitoring spots in 16 provinces and municipalitiesC. improve living standardD. improve the air in major city clusters32. We can infer from the paragraph________.A. Thick and dangerous smog have hit 17 provinces and municipalitiesB. air pollution impacted a population of 600 million this yearC. The people in Beijing probably wore masks when they walked on the street during the national holiday in 2013.D. the study will provide reference for preventive efforts to reduce the PM 2.5DA time capsule buried by Apple founder Steve Jobs 30 years ago has been discovered after its location was long forgotten. In 1983, the young tech innovator was attending a conference in Aspen when he and the group decided to bury as a stunt during a design convention.The tube that was filled with an eclectic collection of goods- ranging from the then-new apple mouse to a six-pack of beer for the people who discovered the time capsule- was meant to be dug up 20 years later. There was a problem with that plan, however, as everyone involved forgot where it was buried.The final discovery happened at the hands of the crew from the National Geographic Channel`s reality show called Diggers. The discovery was well documented and is surely going to be featured on an upcoming episode, and even the experts had problems finding this particular treasure. CNET reports that in spite of their preparations and clear idea of where the 13-foot-long tube was, it still took them two hours to dig it up using heavy machinery.To anyone removed from the tech industry, the accomplishment in finding the tube appears to be the biggest accomplishment.To others, the most interesting object would likely be the `Lisa` mouse placed in the tube by the hands of a then-28-year-old Jobs. The Lisa Mouse, which Jobs named after his daughter, was one of the first commercial computer mice soled publicly, making it a rarity at the time.The Aspen Historical Society is going to help the show creators catalogue the tube`s contents- but no word yet whether or not the Diggers cracked open one of the six bottles of Boddington`s Ale that was left inside for the people who found the tube.33.Who found the time capsule buried by Steve Jobs?A. Apple founder Steve Jobs himself.B. the crew from the National Geographic Channel`s reality show called Diggers.C. Steve Jobs' friends.D. Steve Jobs’ daughter.34.Which is the best title of the passage ?A. A time capsule buried by Apple founder Steve Jobs.B. Steve Jobs' plan.C. Steve Jobs' time capsule is uncovered.D. The tube by Steve Jobs.35.How old is Steve Jobs now?A. 58 years old.B. 20 years old.C. 30 years old.D. 48 years old.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。
