2023年江苏省普通高中学业水平合格性考试模拟二英语第一部分单项选择题(共两节，满分70分)第一节阅读理解(共15小题，每小2分，满30分)What would life be like without commas(逗号)?It would be quite confusing.Take this simple sentence as an example:Let’s eat Dad!Without a comma,Dad becomes the food.Add comma,and Dad becomes a partner at dinner:Let’s eat,Dad!The comma enables people to have a better understanding of the sentence.Here’s another example:Tom said Sarah stole the cake.Here,Sarah is the thief.But add a pair of commas,and Tom becomes the thief:Tom,said Sarah,stole the cake.The examples above clearly show that people cannot do without commas in writing.Yet, the comma came from oral speeches.Long ago,most people could not read.They listened to the news or stories told by the people who gave speeches.The comma began as something to mark the resting place in a sentence.When reading,the speakers knew where to stop and take a breath.In writing,commas are like shining red lights on the road.They require that you wait a moment before continuing.And don’t add a comma when you feel like it.There are rules that people shall not break.Learn them,and you won’t be eating anyone or making wrong changes.1．Without commas,life would be________.A．frightening B．puzzling C．relaxing D．interesting 2．The author uses two examples in the passage to________.A．tell jokes to readers B．show the importance of using commas C．tell stories to readers D．show the difficulty of using commas 3．Commas were first used to________.A．indicate a long sentence B．rewrite an unclear sentence C．continue a sentence D．mark a break in a sentence 4．According to the last paragraph,we use commas by following________.A．our feelings B．our speechesC．certain rules D．some facts5．What is the best title for the passage?A．Commas Make Sentences Clear.1B．Commas Make English Interesting.C．Commas Make Writing Easy.D．Commas Make Speeches Surprising.At5:13on the morning of April18th1906,the city of San Francisco was shaken by a terrible earthquake.A great part of the city was destroyed and a large number of buildings were burnt.The number of people who lost homes reached as many as250,000.About700 people died in the earthquake and the fires.Another earthquake shook San Francisco on October17th,1989.It was America’s second strongest earthquake and about100people were killed.It happened in the evening as people were travelling home.A wide and busy road which was built like a bridge over another road fell onto the one below.Many people were killed in their cars,but a few lucky ones were not hurt.Luckily the1989earthquake did not happen in the centre of town but about50 kilometres away.In one part of the town a great many buildings were destroyed.These buildings were over50years old,so they were not strong enough.There were a lot of fires all over the city.The electricity was cut off for several days too.Why do earthquakes happen?Scientists explain that the outside of the earth is made of a number of different plates.At San Francisco the Pacific plate which is moving towards the northwest meets the North American plate.The Pacific plate is moving very slowly—at5.3 centimetres a year.Sometimes these two plates stop and do not move for years.Then suddenly,they jump and an earthquake is felt.As a result of the movement of these plates, west America near the sea has always been a bad place for earthquakes.When the1906 earthquake happened,the Pacific plate jumped5-6metres to the north.Scientists are afraid that one day an even bigger earthquake will hit the area around San Francisco.They call it“The Big One”.However,people today are still building more houses. The population in and around San Francisco is now ten times more than it was in1906.This means that if there is another big earthquake,a great many houses and buildings will be destroyed.6．Fewer people were killed in the1989San Francisco earthquake because the earthquake happened_______.A．in the centre of the city B．in the daytime试卷第2页，共7页C．outside the city D．in the evening7．Which might be the worst earthquake in the history of the USA according to the passage? A．The1906earthquake.B．The1976earthquake.C．The1989earthquake.D．Both A and C．8．Why do earthquake happen?A．Because the surface of the earth is too thin.B．Because some plates of the earth move suddenly.C．Because the houses built on the earth are not strong.D．Because the plates are moving slowly.9．What should we do about the earthquake?A．We should learn how to predict earthquakes and stop them.B．We should stop building new houses.C．We should build strong buildings in the right places.D．We should try our best to stop earthquakes.10．What does the underlined word“one”in the second paragraph refer to? A．Bridge.B．Road.C．Car.D．Street.I’ve spent over a year in India,and in those365plus days,I’ve learned a lot about getting around Indian cities.My biggest lessons have been learned through being cheated,particularly by taxi and rickshaw(人力车)drivers,but that doesn’t mean those are bad ways to travel,as long as you know what you’re doing.Below are the best ways to get around the city of Delhi,India,and tips for how to keep from being the victim of scams(欺诈).Taking taxis is a great way to get around the city of Delhi and chances are,if you arrive in Delhi by plane,as soon as you make it through customs,you’ll be swarmed by Indian taxi drivers.At the Delhi airport,be sure to arrange for a taxi to your hotel at one of the two Delhi Traffic Police Taxi Booths.One is inside the airport,and the other is outside.The key is to make sure to go to a booth run by the police,rather than by independent taxi drivers.Rickshaws are one of my favourite ways to get around Indian cities,in part because it’s how the locals often travel.Auto-rickshaws are more common,but bicycle rickshaws are still used in Old Delhi.If you do have a chance to take a bicycle rickshaw,you should do it at least once for a unique experience that should only set you back about15rupees.Auto-rickshaw3rates around Delhi range between30and80rupees,depending on the distance.If you really want to travel around Delhi like the locals,take a public bus.Indian buses become very crowded and most do not have air conditioning.They are,however,very cheap.A bus trip won’t set you back any more than15rupees,as long as you stay within the city limits.Since Indian buses get so crowded,try to board the bus at the start of the route so you can get a seat.The train is a great way to get around within the city of Delhi.Fares are reasonable,between6and22rupees.All departure announcements are in both Hindi and English,and tokens can be purchased for between6and22rupees.11．The author is trying to in Delhi through this text.A．give some advice of travelling B．expect us to travel around C．show his/her experiences D．explain the difficulties of travelling 12．To avoid being cheated,you ought to if you want to take a taxi at the Delhi airport.A．pay more to the drivers to keep safe B．show your ticket to the driverC．go to a police-run booth D．go out of the airport13．The author suggests taking a rickshaw in order to.A．save some money B．enjoy the comfortable tripC．gain a unique experience D．help the local rickshaw drivers 14．What can we infer from the passage?A．You won’t have to pay much if you travel around by bus in India.B．It will be difficult for you to get a seat if you get on the bus halfway.C．A rickshaw driver only charges whatever amount you give him.D．You’ll have to speak English if you travel around in India.15．Which may be the topic that follows?A．Hotel recommendations in Delhi B．Weather conditions in Delhi C．Food and drink in Delhi D．Car rentals in

AAs a language learning enthusiast,I've come up with the best apps for learning English from the thousands of mobile apps out there.Best for Pronunciation:ELSA SpeakELSA Speak is probably the best mobile app around for helping you improve your English pronunciation.The app's greatest strength is its intensive AI feedback,but ELSA also provides mini-training sessions to really perfect your pronunciation.The AI analyzes your recordings based on pronunciation,intonation and fluency then points out exactly which parts sound inaccurate.Best for Immersing in English Videos:FluentUFluentU is a language learning app that teaches you English through authentic videos like news reports,movie scenes and interviews,with learner tools for all levels.Each clip has interactive subtitles so if you're not sure what a word means,you can hover over it and get an explanation.The app also gives video examples for each word so you can learn vocabulary in context.Best for Practical Topics:BabbelBabbel has you learn and practice English with realistic conversations that surround things that you're personally interested in.Lessons are short and consist of written and audio versions of the grammar featured in the lessons.Then you are able to complete practice exercises to solidify your understanding.Best for Fun Beginner Lessons:LingodeerLingodeer uses games and short exercises to teach beginner and intermediate English learners. Lingodeer takes a gamified approach to language learning with a goal-oriented curriculum consisting of structured lessons and regular reviews.Lingodeer's lessons are arranged according to themes,such as sports,weather,parts of the body and shopping.1.What is the feature of ELSA Speak?A.It analyzes learners'recordings.B.It provides guidance for learners.C.It gives learners helpful feedback.D.It improves learners'communication skill.2.Which app provides videos as learning resources?A.FluentU.B.ELSA Speak.C.Babbel.D.Lingodeer.3.What can learners do with the app Lingodeer?A.Design games.B.Study around a theme.C.Structure lessons.D.Take advanced courses.BFrom Santa Barbara to Scotland,strangers are becoming friends by going on bike rides together.They get paired up by Cycling Without Age,an organization that helps seniors go for bike rides,even if they can't pedal themselves.Hugh Lyon and David Lawrence,who are roughly20years apart in age,have been riding together for years.The56-year-old Lawrence serves as a“pilot”,driving the trishaw—a bike with a passenger seat in the front that Cycling Without Age uses for their rides.They go for rides about once a week,often discussing the history of their town."Despite my deceased parents,it gives me a connection with people from an older generation,”said Lawrence,“and I enjoy spending time with them and hearing their stories.”The pair have formed a friendship outside of wrence said he calls Lyon often and goes to the gym with him to help him with exercises he can't do on his own.Ole Kassow,who founded Cycling Without Age,said that's the power of the program.“The truly powerful thing about these bike rides is that they tie people and stories together to create new relationships,"he told CBS News."In my experience,friendships--and the ability to form new relationships at any age—are what define a good life,and often also a long and happy life.”John Boettner started the Santa Barbara chapter.He has one rule for passengers.“They say,‘What does it cost if I’m going to go for a ride?’I say,'Here's what it costs:You have to wave.If you don't wave,I'm going to kick you out,'"he joked.He said he likes when they hit red lights,because it gives them a chance to connect with people on the road."Driving the trishaw is the best advertisement for Cycling Without Age”,Boettner said,"When you take a101-year-old woman for a bike ride and she holds your hand tight and says thank you and gives you a kiss on the cheek,it doesn't get any better than that."4.What did Lawrence benefit from Cycling Without Age?A.Picking up forgotten stories.B.Improving his health condition.C.Understanding his parents'love.D.Creating a relationship with seniors.5.Why did Ole Kassow mention“friendships”？A.To share the pleasure of cycling.B.To state the nature of happiness.C.To show the value of the program.D.To introduce the definition of a good life.6.What can we learn from Boettner's words in the last paragraph?A.The program needs to be advertised.B.Passengers have to pay for their rides.C.Red lights connect people on the road.D.Bike riders feel fulfilled by offering rides.7.What message does the passage convey？A.A sweet friendship refreshes the soul.B.Be a rainbow in somebody else's cloud.C.Don't go through life,grow through life.D.Happiness is a journey,not a destination.CFor anyone trying to lose weight,there's a truth we can all universally acknowledge that better health is often positioned as a numbers game.Hit the right number,and all your health problems will magically resolve,so the logic goes.Yet increasingly,science is revealing that losing weight may not be a silver bullet after all.In a mouse study published in the journal Science,looking specifically at an inflammatory（炎症的）eye condition linked to obesity called maculardegeneration（黄斑退化），researchers found the struggle for better health doesn't necessarily begin and end with weight loss.Researchers conducted experiments on mice that were fed a high-fat diet for11 weeks,making them gain weight.The mice were then put on a diet of low-fat food for9weeks, making them lose weight.Another group of mice only ate the low-fat diet as a control. Researchers shot lasers into the eyes of both the yo-yo dieter mice and the control mice to encourage atypical blood vessel（非典型性血管）growth，a mark of macular degeneration.Among the mice that had gained and then lost weight,there was about40percent more atypical blood vessel growth than their stable diet peers.Driving the growth appeared to be macrophages（巨噬细胞）．In the yo-yo dieter mice，these cells had been reprogrammed to cause inflammation.Taken together,these cells appeared to have an outsize role in atypical blood vessel growth in the eyes.Meanwhile,in the mice fed only a low-fat diet,inflammatory changes were absent.The results suggest that eating a high-fatdiet that causes weight gain,even if followed by weight loss,leaves an inflammatory mark on mouse macrophages.The research comes during a period of renewed interest in anti-obesity drugs.But medicines that help people shed pounds do not treat inflammation linked to a history of weight gain.“How to engage these findings with medicine interventions is a challenge,"says Bapat,head of the research.8.Which of the following best explains“a silver bullet”underlined in paragraphl?A.A workable solution.B.A tough choice.C.An ultimate objective.D.A major challenge.9.How do researchers carry out the experiment?A.By making comparison.B.By listing examples.C.By controling test methods.D.By analyzing diet components.10.What can we learn about the research results?A.Stable dieting drives the growth of macrophages.B.Reprogrammed cells are to blame for weight gain.C.Inflammatory changes are caused by the low-fat diet.D.Losing weight doesn't resolve the inflammation tied to weight gain.11.What will the research focus on next?A.Exploring ways of losing weight.B.Tracking the history of weight loss.C.Treating obesity-linked inflammation.D.Boosting interest in anti-obesity drugs.DA new kind of solar panel,developed at the University of Michigan,has achieved high efficiency in transforming water into hydrogen and oxygen—imitating a crucial step in natural photosynthesis（光合作用）.The outdoor version of the experiment，with less reliable sunlight and temperature,achieved6.1%efficiency at turning the energy from the sun into hydrogen fuel. However,indoors,the system achieved9%efficiency.But the biggest benefit is driving down the cost of sustainable hydrogen.This is enabled by reducing the size of the semiconductor（半导体），typically the most expensive part of the device. The team's self-healing semiconductor withstands concentrated light equivalent to160suns.“We believe that artificial photosynthesis devices will be much more efficient than natural photosynthesis,which will provide a path toward carbon neutrality,"said Zetian Mi,U-M professor of electrical and computer engineering who led the study reported in Nature.The new technology has two advances.The first is the ability to concentrate the sunlightwithout destroying the semiconductor that traps the light.“We reduced the size of the semiconductor by more than100times compared to some semiconductors only working at low light intensity,”said Peng Zhou,U-M research fellow in electrical and computer engineering and first author of the study."Hydrogen produced by our technology could be very cheap.And the second is using both the higher energy part of the solar spectrum（光谱）to break down water and the lower part of the spectrum to provide heat that encourages the reaction.The magic is enabled by a semiconductor catalyst（催化剂）that improves itself with use，resisting the degradation（降解）that such catalysts usually experience when they trap sunlight to drive chemical reactions.The next challenges the team intends to tackle are to further improve the efficiency and to achieve superhigh purity hydrogen that can be directly fed into fuel cells.12.What leads to the lower cost of sustainable hydrogen?A.Solar energy.B.Smaller semiconductors.C.Natural photosynthesis.D.More concentrated light.13.What is an advantage of the new technology?A.A catalyst easily available.e of the solar spectrum.C.Outstanding ability to reflect light.D.A semiconductor working at low light intensity.14.Why are the two advances of the new solar panel mentioned?A.To introduce a greener lifestyle.B.To promote its commercial value.C.To state its technical breakthrough.D.To advertise the potential application.15.Which of the following is the best title for the text?A.A New Trend in Water UsageB.The Future of Sustainable HydrogenC.Solar Energy:More Efficient,GreenerD.Cheaper Hydrogen Through Solar Power第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

ATime for an adventure?Are you a bit bored with your nine—to—five routine?Have a look at our exciting range of holidays and decide what type of adventure you’d 1ike．Activity holidaysOur activity holidays are for everyone，people who love danger or who just like sports．We have a huge variety of water，snow or desert holidays．We’11 take you SCUBA diving in the Red Sea or kayaking and white water rafting in Canada．If you prefer snow，you can try skiing or snowboarding in the Alps．For those who like warmer weather，we also have sand—boarding—the desert version of skateboarding．Polar expeditionsTake a cruise to the Antarctic or the Arctic；explore a land of white natural beauty and wonderful wildlife．Our experts will explain everything about the two poles as you watch the penguins in the Antarctic or whales and polar bears in the Arctic．Cultural journeysOur cultural journeys will help you discover ancient civilizations：India，Thailand，Egypt and many more．Visit temples，palaces and ancient ruins just remember to bring your camera！Get to know local ways of life by exploring markets,trying foreign foods and meeting local people．Trekking toursWe have trekking holidays to famous places such as Machu Picchu or the Everest Base Camp Trek，as well as some nearer to home in the Highlands of Scotland．You don’t need to be very sporty，just fairly fit．You’11 have a great time enjoying nature with a group of new friends．Some of the holidays include camping,but we'11 transport the tents for you! 1．Which tour will you choose if you want to watch animals in nature？A．Activity holidays．B．Polar expeditions．C．Cuhural journeys．D．Trekking tours．2．What can explorers probably do during the trekking tours?A．Do some sports．B．Enjoy sandboarding．C．Camp on the mountains．D．Try snowboarding in the Alps．3．Who are the holiday adventure events mainly aimed at？A．Senior retirees．B．Young teenagers．C．Regular workers．D．Successful businessmen．B“What is the biggest challenge of graduate school？”an undergraduate asked the group of graduate students at an event I helped organize last summer．“Not letting the support from my community turn into pressure，"one member responded．That answer might have surprised some，who probably expected to hear about experiments that didn't work or trudging through academic materials．But I understood exactly what she meant．Throughout my education，friends and family have expected me to take advantage of every opportunity I come across because I may not get the same chance again．They expect me to give outstanding performances everywhere I go because I represent them and our culture．Mentors（导师）expect that I will never give up．This has been a great source of motivation，but also of pressure．I remembered a conversation with a mentor．At the end of my first year of graduate school,I struggled with a strong desire to leave the program with a master’s degree．I was accustomed to hearing“Don't give up”and“You have to finish”—words that were meant to be motivational．Instead,they made me feel I would be a disappointment if I left．After I discussed the pros and cons of leaving with my mentor，she responded completely different from what I expected．“I support any decision you make，”she said．“I will always be proud of you and your achievements．"Hearing this simple，direct statement of support，I felt every muscle of my body loosen．My mentor knew the right thing to say，but we can't expect the same from everyone．Sometimes,friends and family ask me,“How long until you get your degree？"As many graduate students will agree，this question is a stress starter．Now，when people in my community—always with the best intentions—say something that creates pressure and makes me feel bad，I tell them and we talk about it．I tell them that I prefer to hear，“Do you need someone to talk to?How can I help you through this rough time？”This was a bit awkward at first．But I’ve started to notice a change．These days，I get fewer stress—inducing(引起压力的)questions and comments．4．Which can replace the underlined word“trudging”in paragraph 1 ？A．Struggling．B．Seeing．C．Breaking．D．Cutting．5．What can be inferred from paragraph 3 about the author?A．He was afraid to 1eave his program．B．He appreciated what his mentor said．C．He preferred to discuss pros and cons．D．He had a strong desire to get a master’s degree．6．Which does the author prefer to hear when he needs support?A．Never give up! B．How about a chat？C．Have you prepared for the result? D．Go ahead！1 will back you up！7．What’s the main idea of the text?A．Value the source of inspiration from your community．B．Communicate with your community more about study．C．Find a way to block out support from your community．D．Let support from your community become less stressful．CA new study finds that the average performance of students from the lowest income families in the US lags（滞后）about three to four years behind that of the highest income students an achievement gap that has remained constant for decades．An analysis of standardized tests given to more than 2．7 million middle and high school students over 40 years suggests that federal education programs aimed at closing the gap are falling short．Researchers looked at results from four different programs conducted nationwide at variuous intervals from 1971 to 2015 to test teenagers in math，reading and science．A total of 98 exams were used in the programs，testing students aged 13—15 as well as 17-year—olds．Test scores for 17-year-old students in the bottom 10th income percentile（百分位)were far lower than those in the top 10th percentile．Meanwhile，the overall test scores didn’t shift for 17—year-olds during the study period．They did improve slightly for 13-to 15-year—olds，which suggests that federal programs for younger students have been helpful．But the lowest income students still score much lower than the highest income students．“Programs for older students are badly needed，”says study coauthor Eric Hanushek,an education economist at Stanford University．“Lower achievement in high schoo1 leads to lower earning potential throughout aduhhood．The next generation is going to look a lot like this generation．Kids from poor families will become poor themselves．”Whether the problem is worsening，however，is up for debate．A 2011 study，conducted by Stanford education sociologist Sean Reardon，looked at 12 exams administered from 1960 to 2007，and found that the gap in test scores between the poorest and the wealthiest students grew by 40 percent．It shows the poorest students 1ag about three to six years behind their wealthier peers in 1earning．Reardon suggested parents of means were increasingly investing in their children’s education,sharpening the divide．The different results between the new study and that conducted in 2011 come down to the fact that the researchers analyzed results from different tests and how they categorized（分类)family income 1evel,says education sociologist AnnaChmielewski．Hanushek and Reardon agree that the income—related achievement gap is alarming．8．What does the result of the new study indicate？A．The poorest students’lagging behind exists in specific age groups．B．A better standard for category should be adopted in the study．C．The federal education programs turned out unsuccessful generally．D．A better school performance necessarily leads to higher income．9．How does the author present the serious issue？A．By showing the discussion result．B．By clarifying some points．C．By doing a questionnaire．D．By making a comparison．10．What may cause the different results of the two studies？A．The different countries．B．The analytical methods．C．The income assessments．D．The different ranges of age．11．Why does the income—related achievement gap concern people？A．It will disappear eventually．B．It will further widen the social gap．C．It results in the students’blind competitions．D．It makes Americans smarter and richer．DScientists already know that plants are highly sensitive to touch of any kind．If you've ever touched Mimosa pudica(含羞草)，you’ve already witnessed its fan-like leaves close up．But most of the time,the effect is invisible，or immediately invisible．A recent study found that touching plants causes such a dramatic response in their hormones and gene expression that it could greatly prevent their growth．The team touched thale cress，a weedy plant，with soft paint brushes,and then analyzed the plant’s biological responses．“The lightest touch from a human，an animal，an insect，or even plants touching each other in the wind，causes a huge gene response in the plant，”Jim Whelan，a biologist at La Trobe University in Australia，said in a statement．“Within 30 minutes of being touched，10％of the plant's genome（基因组)is changed．"Previous research has suggested that touch could actually be beneficial，because it stimulates(刺激)the plant’s immune system．But this study found that the plants used many resources to respond to touch，which are then not available for growing．The researchers found if they touched a plant multiple times，this was enough to reduce its growth rate by as much as 30％．Other papers have similarly shown that touch can change plant growth;a paper released in 2016 found that even a gentle pat could change the expression of thousands of genes within the same plant．“While plants don’t appear to complain when we step on them，or just brush by them while going for a walk，they’re fully aware of this contact and rapidly respond to our treatment of them，"said Olivier Van Aken，a plant biologist at the University of Western Australia．Whelan and his team uncovered more information about the genetic pathways thatare activated by touching a plant，which may be useful for developing more resilient（能复原的）plants．Whelan told the Sydney Morning Herald that the findings are likely most useful for the agriculture industry：if plant scientists can find ways to change that defensive response，produce yields(产量)could potentially go up．12．How does touch prevent a plant growlng？A．By causing genetic changes．B．By conveying harmful substances．C．By stopping it absorbing nutrients．D．By damaging its inner structure．13．What can be concluded from Olivier Van Aken's words about plants?A．They are easy to look after．B．They respond rapidly to any contact．C．They never have feelings for touch．D．They are allergic to any human activity．14．What does the last paragraph focus on?A．The significance of the study．B．The approaches to the findings．C．The way to develop resilient plants．D．The information about increasing produce yields．15．What can be the best title for the text？A．Plants’gene expression is defined by touchB．Touch will help increase produce yieldsC．Something is done to help plants growD．Plants don’t really like to be touched第二节(共5小题;每小题2。

It has been one of the best sellers. Why can it be so popular?Greg Mortenson was born in the state of Minnesota and grew up near Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. Mortenson later became a nurse. He loved to climb K2 in Pakistan, the second highest mountain in the world. One day, he failed to reach the top of K2, and he became separated from his climbing group on the way down. He was very tired, sick and lost. He had no food, water or shelter(住所).Mortenson reached a poor village called Korphe in the Karakoram mountains of Pakistan. The villagers had never seen a foreigner before. They provided food and a place for him. Mortenson became friends with the villagers and he wanted to see their school. But they had no school.He promised(承诺) to return and build a school for the children of the village. This was not easy.
