approaches, but they come together to share skills, share stories, and share in the joy of making something.Modern maker culture is filling headlines and lab spaces all over the world.The way makers communicate with each other has changed over time.In the past, skills mainly came from personal sitdowns with members of the group.But sometimes a teacher wasn't available, or the one available didn't know how to do the skill others wanted to learn.Today a teacher doesn't even have to be in the same country or occupy the same decade as the students.Thanks to the work of people who take the time to break down and share the details of their craft, an interested individual can learn anything.Guides may range from videos to diagrams and text.Regardless of the media, maker resources are meant to be shared.One of the features of the maker movement is the crossover between different interests.Perhaps a passion for cars and for leathercraft can result in a truly custom interior (定制的内饰).Perhaps a love of knitting (编织) and robotics will result in a tiny—but very mobile—robotic furry cat.And once you have started your creation, finding a community to share with is no longer limited to the people nearby.Modern makers have been sharing videos of their progress online for years, contributing greatly to the rapid spread of the maker movement.As different as the participants might be, they share enthusiasm, support, and a willingness to try.Imagine making a pingpong table together with your makers' team.One group builds the basic frame.Another group takes on the responsibility of painting.You knit the net.There is joy in just giving it a try.It will remind you of childhood creations.Whether you are an experienced programmer or just picking up a hammer for the first time, it is never a bad time to come up with an idea, try something, and share the results.4．How did makers communicate with each other in the past?A．By meeting face to face.B．By asking personal questions.C．By visiting a teacher together.D．By sitting together in a classroom.5．What does the underlined word “crossover” in Paragraph 4 mean?A．Exchange.B．Difference.C．Combination.D．Independence.6．What greatly speeds up the spread of modern maker culture?A．The sharing of videos on the Internet.B．The development of education.C．The increasing willingness to share.D．The increasing number of participants.7．Why does the author mention making a pingpong table in the last paragraph?A．To advise us to start small.B．To inspire some creative ideas.C．To stress the importance of childhood creations.D．To encourage us to join in the maker movement.C(2025届贵州省安顺市高三上学期第一次联考)Holding hands, people jumped into the water, and floated around in Boston's Charles River recently.That is something that would not have been possible years ago because the river was so polluted.In the 1960s, the music group The Standells even sang about the river in their popular song—“Dirty Water”．The swimmers were getting their onceayear chance to cool off from the summer heat in the Charles River.It is called “City Splash”．For a few days each year, the state of Massachusetts allows public swimming on Boston's part of the nearly 130kilometer Charles River.The event is in its fifth year.It is a chance for the nonprofit Charles River Conservancy to show its efforts to build a “swim park”．Their idea is to build floating docks where swimmers can jump safely into the river—without touching the risky bottom.These docks would be in areas where the water quality would be tested repeatedly.Boston is one of the cities hoping to follow the model of Copenhagen, Denmark.That city opened the first of its three floating harbor baths in the early 2000s.On sunny days, people swim in the harbor baths surrounded by tall buildings and cars on the highways.At night, the area is filled with people enjoying music and food.Just recently Paris opened public swimmin g in a oncepolluted canal.New York, London, Berlin and other cities are planning similar features for their waterways.In Boston, the Charles River Conservancy still needs to raise several million dollars.It also needs to get approvals from city, state and federal agencies.The groups spokeswoman S．J.Port, said the__biggest__problem has already been taken care of: The Charles is now one of the cleanest city rivers in America.The U.S.Environmental Protection Agency announced this month that the riverearned a “B” grade for water quality last year—an “A” being the best grade.It means the Charles River met the requirement for swimming 55 percent of the time.8．What is the function of floating docks?A．They are places for swimmers to rest.B．They let swimmers get into the river safely.C．They surround swimmers in a safe area of the river.D．They are used to test the water quality repeatedly.9．Which of the following has set a good example for others in offering floating harbor baths?A．Paris.B．Boston.C．Copenhagen.D．Berlin.10．What does the underlined part “the biggest problem” refer to?A.The pollution of Charles River.B．Lack of money to treat pollution.C．Getting approvals from governments.D．Meeting the requirement of “A” grade.11．What can be inferred from the text?A.The water in Charles River reaches drinking standard.B.People can swim in Charles River at any time.C．This summer is the hottest in Boston.D．Charles River flows through Boston.D(2024年安徽省合肥市巢湖市高考英语模拟试卷)Angel Garcia Crespo is a computer engineer at Carlos Ⅲ University of Madrid in Spain.His group has invented a new way for deafblind people to “watch” TV.The idea for the technology grew out of previous work by his group.The team had already worked on making audiovisual (视听的) materials accessible to people with either vision or hearing disabilities.But the group wanted to help people with both challenges.So they asked some deafblind people what would help.In addition to relying on their sense of touch to communicate, deafblind people can also get and send information with a Braille line.The Braille system uses patterns of raised dots to stand for letters and numbers.A Braille line is an electronic machine with a changeable Braille display.Dots rise up or drop down based on the information sent to the machine.Now the new system changes TV signals to data a Braille line can use.“The key to the system is the possibility of using subtitles (字幕) to collect TV information，”Garcia Crespo explains.“Subtitles travel with the image (影像) and the audio in electromagnetic waves we don't see.But an electronic system can keep those waves.”First，a computer program，or app，pulls out the subtitles and visual descriptions from the broadcast signal.The system then combines the information and changes both into data for Braille.Now another app gets to work, which sends the data out to people's Braille lineson demand.“This is done in real time，in less than a second，” Garcia Crespo says.This lets a deafblind person “watch” TV as it's broadcast.The system will work with various Braille lines，as long as there's a bluetooth connection available.Now，the system is only used in Europe，and it should soon be available in the US.12．What inspired Garcia Crespo's group to work on the new technology?A．Deafblind people's poor life.B．Their pity on the disabled people.C．The challenges they face in work.D．Their group's previous research.13．Why can the electronic system collect TV information?A.It can combine all kinds of broadcast signals.B．It can keep the waves with subtitles travelling.C.It can work together with a variety of Braille lines.D．It can pull out the subtitles and visual descriptions.14．What does the author think of the future of the new technology?A．Challenging. B．Bright.C．Rewarding. D．Hopeless.15．What should be a suitable title for the text?A.New Technology Is Improving Deafblind People's LifeB．A New Braille Line Is Applied to Disabled People's LifeC．A Spanish Group Makes TV Accessible to Blind PeopleD．New Technology Helps Deafblind People “Watch” TV其次节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)依据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

2023新高考Ⅰ卷英语模拟试题及答案精选全文
英语第一部分阅读（共两节，满分50分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）AIf you have no difficulty in understanding what native English speakers say in daily life,there is a whole new world of brilliant podcast(播客)series to explore.If you aren't sure where to start, have a look at these：21.In order to fully enjoy these podcasts,you should________．A.have interaction with hostsB.have good English competenceC.be interested in being a podcasterD.be familiar with American social life22.Which podcast gives you more stories behind the scene?A.The Writer's Voice.B.This American Life.C.The Joe Rogan Experience.D.Overheard at National Geographic.23.What do these podcasts have in common?A.They enjoy great popularity.B.Their stories are set in America.C.They are attached to magazines.D.Their works are updated weekly.BThe climate change in California has caused terrible damage to California’s marine ecosystems.Untold billions of sea stars,or starfish,from at least20species disappeared from the entire Pacific coast because of the marine heatwaves.In the absence of sunflower sea stars,a major predator for sea urchins(海胆),the urchin populations exploded.They laid waste to kelp forests(海草林)already weakened by high ocean temperatures.However,Central California’s kelp ecosystems have done somewhat better than those in Northern California.A new study led by Joshua Smith,an ecologist at the University of California, examines the role sea otter(海獭)populations—a natural predator for urchins—play in preserving existing kelp forests in the Monterey Bay.The research project spanned three years,during which intensive underwater surveys produced some very interesting data about sea otter behavior.Sea otters have very high metabolisms(新陈代谢)that keep them warm in icy waters and which also make them greedy consumers of shellfish,urchin,and fish—sea otters can eat25percent of their body weight in food in a day.At the observed sites,as the urchin population grew,the otter’s diet shifted to become more heavily dependent on urchins.In fact,the otters were eating three times as many urchins as they had been before2014.As a result,they provided crucial protection from urchins to the kelp forests.The fact that otters were able to contribute to the health of the surviving kelp forests by keeping urchin populations in check provides Smith with hope for the forests’continued survival.“The important thing is that the urchins are ultimately reduced,”he says.“The sea otters have maintained patches of kelp forest that can then help refill the barren areas to enhance the recovery of forests.”24.What influence does climate change have on California’s marine ecosystems?A.A greater diversity of marine species.B.The disappearance of urchins.C.An explosive growth of sea stars.D.The weakening of kelp forests.25.What is the study led by Joshua Smith about?A.Urchins’response to ocean warming.B.The reproduction of marine animals.C.Otters’role in protecting kelp forests.D.The current condition of marine ecosystems.26.What is a direct result of the shift in otters’diet?A.The otters are more likely to stay warm.B.The shellfish populations have exploded.C.Urchins’threat to kelp forests is relieved.D.The kelp forests have made a full recovery.27.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A.Sea Otters to the RescueB.Marine Species in DangerC.Urchins Are Destroying Kelp ForestsD.Otters Increase Kelp Forests’Carbon StorageCA new Northwestern University study reaffirms the importance of getting a good night’s sleep.By examining fruit flies’brain activity and behavior,the researchers found that deep sleep has the power to clear waste from the brain.This waste potentially includes poisonous proteins that may lead to neurodegenerative(神经退化)diseases.“Waste clearance could be important,in general,for maintaining brain health or for preventing neurodegenerative diseases,”said Dr. Allada,senior author of the study.“Waste clearance may occur during wake and sleep but is greatly strengthened during deep sleep.”Although fruit flies seem very different from humans,the neurons(神经元)that govern flies’sleepwake cycles are strikingly similar to our own.For this reason,fruit flies have become a wellstudied model organism for sleep and neurodegenerative diseases.In this current study,Allada and his team examined Proboscis(针状喙)Extension Sleep,a deepsleep stage in fruit flies,which is similar to deep,slowwave sleep in humans.The researchers discovered that,during this stage fruit flies repeatedly extend and move back their proboscises.“This kind of movement moves fluids possibly to the fly version of kidneys(肾),”Allada said.“Our study shows that this promotes waste clearance and aids in injury recovery.”When Allada’s team disturbed flies’deep sleep,the flies were less able to clear the waste from their systems and were more likely to be influenced by injuries.Allada said this study brings us closer to understanding the mystery of why all organisms need sleep.All animals,especially those in the wild,are incredibly weak when they sleep,but research increasingly shows that the benefits of sleep,including crucial waste removal,are greater than this increased weakness.28.How did the researchers draw the conclusion of their study?A.By working out the result by chance.B.By predicting the result from the old data.C.By making observation and analysis.D.By making a range of comparisons.29.What does the underlined word“this”in paragraph3probably refer to?A.The disturbance of fruit flies’deep sleep.B.The governing of fruit flies’sleepwake cycles.C.The moving of fluids to the fruit kidneys.D.The extension and moving of fruit flies’proboscises.30.What is mainly talked about in the last paragraph?A.The fact that all organisms need sleep.B.The application of the result of the study.C.The disadvantages of the sleep of animals.D.The great value of mankind’s and animals’sleep.31.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A.Studies on Proboscis Extension SleepB.Deep Sleep Takes Out the Brain TrashC.Different Functions of Waste ClearanceD.Similarities of SleepWake Cycles Between Fruit Flies and HumansDIt is lunchtime.At a long table inside a restaurant,some young people sit together over lunch. There is less conversation than you might expect from a typical group of friends:a boy seems to talk only to himself,and a girl looks anxious.These young people met through a program organized by the nonprofit Actionplay，whereyoung people with autism(自闭症)work together to write and stage a musical.Each Sunday,they work and have lunch together.“You meet other people just like you，”says Lexi Spindel.“That was the first time my daughter had a friend，”says Lexi's father.“That never happened before Actionplay.”For decades,scientists have supposed people with autism don't have or need friends.A new research is forcing a rethink of those longheld beliefs.Autistic people report they want friends. One significant barrier to friendships is common people's opinion that autistic people are not interested in connecting with them.Appearing uninterested,however,is not always the same as being uninterested.An autistic child looking uninterested in games may in fact be overcome by the noise.And behaviors like clapping hands repeatedly are a way to manage their anxiety and uncertainty,not a sign of their low social interest.For some autistic people,friendships develop through experimental programs.In a program Lerner developed,participants play a game called Gibberish,where teenagers must interpret each other's intentions without using real language.The point is not to get it right,but to attend to what the other person is doing in a way that creates opportunities to connect.Lerner's ideas were inspired by a moment16years ago after he established a small camp for children with autism called Spotlight.On the second day,an11yearold boy ran up and pulled his clothes.“Lerner,Lerner,where did you find these kids？”“All over the place，”Lerner answered.“Everyone wants to come to camp,just like you.”“This__is__the__first__normal__group__of__kids__I__have__ever__met，”the boy said.32.The scene in Paragraph1is described to________．A.reveal the lack of an interpersonal conversationB.prove the difficulty in reducing teenage anxietyC.stress the great necessity of forming friendshipsD.show the different behavior of a particular group33.What is Actionplay aimed at?A.Curing young people of autism.B.Developing autistic people's taste in art.C.Offering autistic people a social platform.D.Improving young people's family relationship.34.What can we infer from Paragraph3?A.Autistic people have no intention to make friends.B.Noise sets barriers to autistic people's views on games.C.Repetitive movements make autistic people feel secure.mon beliefs cause autistic people's low social interest.35.What does the underlined sentence imply?A.He feels at ease with his autistic fellows.B.He no longer regards himself as an autistic kid.C.Lerner's guidance helps him get out of autism.D.Autistic kids don't long to socialize with normal ones.第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Finance.C.Entertainment.D.Science and Technology.BI love to read before I go to sleep.It usually makes me feel calm.But a big part of this depends on what I read.I love to read Oor Wullie and The Broons.Very often I’m smiling before I go to sleep.I decide to write about this in a blog because I find that so many of us go to sleep with stress.Before we go to sleep,we may run over the day in our minds,and worry about tomorrow.We also may watch the news on TV,read the news on our smart phones or tablets,or even answer work emails.But the news is rarely proclaiming (宣告) all the things that are happening in the world and work emails make us feel that we’re still at work.All these things may leave us a stressful sleep.Oor Wullie and The Broons are not the only things I ever read at night.I sometimes read novels but,with the odd exception,I mostly avoid anything that istoo mentally taxing or stimulating late at night unless it’s something that inspires me or is clearly helpful in my life.And even if I do read something mentally stimulating,when I feel myself getting tired I lay that book down and pick up trusty old Oor Wullie or The Broons for the last 10 or 15 minutes.Doing this makes my mind quiet and helps ensure that I get a peaceful sleep.Reading about Wullie or Maw and Paw Broon is like a comfort blanket for me.I’d suggest you find light-hearted reading as a comfort blanket at bedtime,especially if you find yourself stressed or depressed a lot of the time,or if you find difficulty winding at the end of a day.It is the thing that can gently turn your attention towards lightness and ease.If your material makes you laugh,then you may feel even better.Several studies show that laughter boosts happy chemicals in the brain.It strengthens the immune system,it’s good for the heart,and it is most definitely good for mental health.It even helps us improve our relationships.And if you do happen to pick up a copy of Oor Wullie or The Broons,I hope you find it just as entertaining as I do.24.What can we learn about Oor Wullie and The Broons?A.They make people run over the past days.B.They are the best books to be read before people sleep.C.They are extremely popular with young people.D.They make people feel relaxed and happy.25.What can we know from the text?A.Oor Wullie and The Broons are the author’s favorite books.B.A comfortable blanket makes people go to sleep easily.C.The author sometimes reads something about inspiration.D.Reading something stimulating at night helps get a peaceful sleep.26.What is Paragraph 6 mainly about?A.What material brings us laughter.B.How laughter affects our health.C.What benefits laughter brings to us.D.Why laughter is good for us.27.What’s the main purpose of the text?A.To show the importance of reading before sleeping.B.To prove the importance of a good mood before sleeping.C.To tell us how to make ourselves stay relaxed before sleeping.D.To explain how to choose a book worthy to be read before sleeping.CSometimes people call each other “scared-cat”.But have you ever thought about this expression?When a cat is frightened,its heart starts beating faster,its muscles get tense and there are changes in the chemicals in its bloodstream.Although the cat doesn’t realize this,its body is getting ready foraction.If the danger continues,the animal will do one of two things.It will protect itself,or it will run away as fast as it can.Something like this also happens to people.When we are excited,angry or scared by other feelings,our bodies go through many physical changes.Our hearts beat faster,and our muscles get tense.All of these changes make us more alert and ready to react.We,too,get ready to defend ourselves or run.Human beings,however,have a problem that animals never face.If we give way to our feelings and let them take over,we can get into trouble.Have you ever said something in anger or hit somebody and regretted it later?Have you ever shouted at a teacher,told somebody you were lonely,or said you were in love,and then wished later you had kept your mouth shut?It isn’t always clever to express your feelings freely.Does this mean that it’s smarter to always hide our feelings?No!If you keep feelings of anger or sadness hidden away or bottled up inside,your body stays tense.Physical illness can develop,and you can feel disturbed badly inside.It can actually be bad for your health.It isn’t good to keep pleasant feelings inside either; all feelings need to be expressed.Feelings that you keep all bottled up inside don’t just go away.It’s as if you bought some bananas and put them in a cupboard.You might not be able to see them,but before long you’d smell them.And if you opened the cupboard,chances are that you’d see little fruit flies flying all over them.They are bad.You can try to treat feelings as if they were bananas in the cupboard.You can hide them and you can pretend they don’t exist,but they’ll still be around.And at last you’ll have to deal with them,just like those bananas.28.When people and animals are aroused by fear,.A.they feel very regretful immediatelyB.their muscles get neither tense nor relaxedC.their hearts beat either faster or slowerD.they may get ready to attack or run away29.Why do human beings get into trouble according to the passage?A.They are usually not as alert as animals.B.They sometimes can’t control their feelings.C.They always do something wrong to other people.D.They don’t pay attention to their physical changes.30.What can we infer from the passage?A.Holding in your feelings may lead to unpleasant results.B.Bananas stay fresh longer when they are in a cupboard.C.Feelings will gradually disappear when you hold them in.D.It’s good for your health to keep pleasant feelings inside.31.What is the purpose of this passage?A.To tell us that people’s feelings are like bananas in a cupboard.B.To give us some advice on how to express our feelings.C.To help us deal with feelings in a wise and proper way.D.To prove that it isn’t always wise to express our feelings freely.DSome people are so rude!Who sends an e-mail or a text message that just says “Thank you”?Who leaves a voice mail message rather than texts you?Who asks for a fact easily found on Google?Don’t these people realize that they’re wasting your time?Maybe I’m the rude one for not appreciating life’s little politeness.But many social agreed standards just don’t make sense to people drowning in digital communication.In texts,you don’t have to declare who you are or even say hello.E-mail,too,is slower than a text.Voice mail is a now impolite way of trying to connect.My father learned this lesson after leaving me a dozen voice mail messages,none of which I listened to.Exasperated,he called my sister to express his dissatisfaction that I never returned his phone calls.“Why are you leaving him voice mail?”my sister asked.“Just text him.”In the age of the smartphone,there is no reason to ask once-acceptable questions about:the weather forecast,a business’s phone number,or directions to a house,a restaurant,which can be easily found on Google Maps.But people still ask these things.And when you answer,they respond with a thank-you e-mail.How to handle these differing standards?Easy.Consider your audience.Some people,especially older ones,appreciate a thank-you message.Others,like me,want no reply.The anthropologist (人类学家) Margaret Mead once said that in traditional societies,the young learnt from the old.But in modern societies,the old can also learn from the young.Here’s hoping that politeness never goes out of fashion but that time-wasting forms of communication do.32.What does the underlined word “Exasperated”mean in the fifth paragraph?A.Worried.B.Surprised.C.Annoyed.D.Tired.33.Why didn’t the writer reply to his father?A.He liked text messages better.B.He enjoyed checking his voice mail.C.He didn’t receive any voice mail messages.D.He didn’t want to talk with his father.34.Which of the following does the writer agree to?A.People needn’t learn from one another in traditional societies.B.Dealing with voice mail should vary with each individual.C.People needn’t turn to Google for help when in trouble.D.Declaring who you are or saying hello in texts is necessary.35.What’s the best title of this passage?A.Nowadays:what should we do with text messages?B.Nowadays:do you like leaving others a voice message?C.Nowadays:what means should we use in communication?D.Nowadays:do you need a thank-you message?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。

2024年全国高考仿真模拟卷一英语一、阅读理解第一节阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A.B.C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
(共15小题:每小题2分,满分30分)(共15题;共30分)ADuring ancient times,children didn’t have smartphones,iPad or computers to entertain themselves. Instead,they came up with interesting games to play.★Stone ballsDuring the Qing Dynasty,kicking a stone ball around was a popular sport in the northern part of China,and it was often played in the winter to protect kids from the cold.Stones were carved into small balls and kicked along with feet.In1999,the sport was included in the6th National Ethnic Group Traditional Sports Meeting held in Beijing.★Flying kitesKites have quite a long history.The earliest kites were made of wood,instead of paper.Nowadays, the four most famous kites are the Beijing kite,Tianjin kite,Weifang kite and Nantong kite,of which each has distinctive features.The kite which resembles a swallow is a well-known Beijing style.★Hide-and-seekHide-and-seek is a traditional game for children,popular around the nation.There are two ways to play:covering a child’s eyes while other kids run around to tease(戏弄)him or,more commonly, participants hide and one child must try to find them.★Playing diabolosA diabolo is always made of wood or bamboo and has empty space in the center.By juggling(边抛边接)the diabolo on the rope,the high-speed spinning diabolos will make a sound like a whistle.Playing diabolos is an interesting folk game,especially popular in North China.Playing diabolos was also included in the first group of national intangible cultural heritage.1．Why did ancient children often play stone balls in the winter?A．To practice their feet B．To warm themselvesC．To train their skills D．To relax themselves.2．Which kites are swallow-shaped?A．Weifang kites.B．Tianjin kites.C．Beijing kites.D．Nantong kites.3．According to the passage,which one is a national intangible cultural heritage?A．Stone balls.B．Flying kites.C．Hide-and-seek.D．Playing diabolosBTechnology usually distracts us from nature.But now technology is“offering us an opportunity to listen to nonhumans in powerful ways,reviving our connection to the natural world,”wrote professor Karen Bakker in her new book,The Sounds of Life:How Digital Technology Is Bringing Us Closer to the Worlds of Animals and Plants.All around the animal kingdom,there are sounds that we struggle to pick up and decipher.Elephants, for example,communicate with each other using infrasound,a sound frequency far below our human hearing range.Coral in the ocean also communicates with each other through sound waves,with one purpose being to attract baby coral to areas where it can successfully grow.This is a shocking fact as coral doesn’t have any ears!Scientists have placed listening devices in these environments to pick up sounds humans are normally unable to detect.After the sounds are recorded,AI is then able to determine their meaning,according to the news website Vox.There are now whole databases of whale songs and honeybee dances.Bakker wrote that one day this information could be turned into“a zoological version of Google Translate”.One animal language Bakker wrote about is that of the elephant.She explained how elephants“have a different signal for honeybee,which is a threat,and a different signal for human,”in an interview with Vox.“Moreover,they distinguish between threatening humans and non-threatening humans,”she said.This technology can not only understand the animals,but also communicate back to them.For example,bees use dances to communicate to their peers where to go in search of nectar.A research team in Germany,therefore,fed the bee language AI database system into a robot bee,allowing the robot to create a dance routine that can tell the bees which direction to move,Vox reported.Whereas in the past language creation had been limited to mainly apes,with there being many examples of chimpanzees(黑猩猩)having been taught sign language to communicate with humans,this new technology now allows humans to socialize with different animals throughout the animal kingdom.4．What does the underlined word“decipher”most probably mean in paragraph2? A．Understand.B．Hear.C．Produce.D．Record.5．What helps baby coral choose their home?A．Infrasound.B．Sounds within human range of hearing. C．Sounds through its ears.D．Sound waves.6．What can we infer from the passage?A．Bees used dances to warn their peers of danger.B．Human fed listening devices into coral to detect it.C．Elephants have different signals for different purposes.D．Elephants can tell whether there are threatening animals around.7．Why did researchers create the robot bee?A．To collect more bee dances.B．To convey direction to bees.C．To learn the language of bees.D．To help bees search for their friends.CWhen you are travelling in Thailand,which means of transport is the best choice?You can rent a variety of motorbikes or bikes in Thailand.It seems to be very popular in most of the beaches and islands along the places in the north.The most popular bikes are the little125cc Honda Dream which you can get for about150baht(铢)a day or as little as3,000baht per month,making it the cheapest way to tour Thailand for the people from other countries.Sometimes you will have to go somewhere by taxi.When you are in cities in Thailand,especially in Bangkok,always remember to get a taxi that is traveling on the roads.Some drivers outside hotels refuse to use the meter(计程表).They will ask a price which is several times the price when they use the meter!The quality of the roads in Thailand is generally pretty good,so renting cars is another way to get around.The big car rental companies may offer you slightly older cars at a very reasonable price.It is a little surprising considering that the cost of buying a car in Thailand is more than that in the West.Petrol is also reasonably priced in Thailand,more expensive than American prices,but much cheaper than what is paid in Europe.In the past,Bangkok could be a difficult place to drive in—signs were generally in Thai (泰语)only,making it a hard job to find exactly where you were by looking around.But now,the situation is improved.In a lot of places,even the farthest corners of the country,street signs are in both Thai and English.8．To a foreigner,the cheapest way to get around Thailand is renting a______.A．car B．taxi C．bike D．motorbike9．What is the writer's advice about taking a taxi in Thailand?A．To take a taxi going on the road.B．To take a taxi parked outside hotels.C．To make sure there is a meter in it.D．To bargain with the driver over the price. 10．Why was it difficult to drive in Bangkok in the past?A．Because there were too many traffic jams on the roads.B．Because there were no signs showing directions.C．Because the signs were written only in their own language.D．Because the quality of the roads was not good.11．In which part of magazine can this passage be found?A．Entertainment B．Tourism C．Market D．AdvertisementDWilliam I,who conquered England some930years ago,had wealth,power and an army.Yet although William was very rich by the standard of his time,he had nothing like a flush toilet(抽水马桶)，or riding lawn mower(除草机).How did he get by?History books are filled with wealthy people who were poor compared to me.I have storm windows, Croesus did not.Entire nations trembled before Alexander the Great,but he couldn,t buy cat food.Czar Nicholas lacked an electric saw.Given how much better off I am than so many famous dead people,you,d think I,d be content.The trouble is that,like most people,I compare my wealth with that of living persons:neighbors,school classmates,famous TV people.The greed I feel toward my friend Howard,s new kitchen is not reduced by the fact no kings ever had a refrigerator with glass doors.’There is really no rising or falling standard of living.Over the centuries people simply find different things to feel sad about.You,d think that simply not having disease would put us in a good mood,but no, we want a hot bath too.Of course,one way to achieve happiness would be to realize that even by today,s standards the things I own are pretty nice.My house is smaller than the houses of many investments bankers,but even so it has a lot more rooms than my wife and I can keep clean.Besides,to people looking back at our era from a century or two in the future,these bankers,fancy counter tops and my own worn Formica will seem equally shabby.I can,t keep up with my neighbors right now.But just wait.12．What does the underlined phrase“get by”in the first paragraph mean?A．Succeed as a king.B．Deal with complaints.C．Live in s satisfactory way.D．Get some extra money.13．How many historical figures are mentioned to compare lives in the past and present?A．3.B．4.C．5D．614．According to the passage,the author.intends to.A．tell us to be content with lifeB．warn us to live in a simple wayC．teach us to learn lessons from lifeD．encourage us to struggle for wealth15．What,s the author,s attitude towards life?A．Doubtful.B．Optimistic.C．Uncaring.D．Cautious.二、阅读理解第二节七选五(5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)(共1题;共10分)Table manners are the ultimate way to show respect or some accidental disrespect to yourhost.___16___.In France,you are supposed to use two hands to eat—either fork and knife or fork and bread.Bread isn't meant to be an appetizer.___17___When you eat the bread,tear off a piece of it to eat instead of

Dancing changes the way we feel and think, and increases self-worth.As a dance psychologist and teacher, I have witnessed the ways dancing has changed the lives of hundreds of people. Then I set up the Dance Psychology Lab so that I could combine my knowledge in psychology with dance, using science to study the relationship between movement and the brain. What I found was extraordinary: people with Parkinson's disease（帕金森病）and dementia（痴呆）getting a new chance to live longer；an increase in the self-worth of teenagers；reductions in sadness and anxiety in adults；increases in social bonding between people；and fundamental changes in the way people think and solve problems. All because of dancing.Dancing stimulates the link between the body and the brain. The emotional high we get from dancing is due to dopamine（多巴胺）.This brain chemical plays a role in how we feel, and low levels are associated with feelings of anxiety, hopelessness, pain and mood swings. Dancing is a great way to overcome these negative feelings because the exercise and our emotional responses to the music we're hearing can increase the release of dopamine in different parts of the brain. As dopamine levels go up, we can shake off some of those negative feelings and float into an excited state.Scientists suggest that the best time to learn a dance routine is before you go to sleep. This is because the brain builds new knowledge structures while we sleep, and it is these structures that strengthen our ability to learn and remember information.In our lab experiments, we found that people who did 20 minutes of improvised（即兴的）dancing became more creative when answering creative-thinking tasks. For example, before dancing, participants could generate about four or five alternative uses for a common object such as a brick or a newspaper, but after dancing they could generate seven or eight.4．Why does the author build the Dance Psychology Lab?A．To change how people think and feel. B．To help people increase their self-worth.C．To find out different social relationships. D．To study how dancing influences the brain.5．What change does dancing bring in people?A．Dopamine levels go up. B．Their intelligence is raised.C．Sleep quality is improved. D．Parkinson's disease and dementia are cured.6．When is the suggested time to learn dance moves?A．In the morning. B．Before sleeping.C．While working. D．In the evening.7．What do improvised dancing experiments show us?A．Dancing helps with our creativity.B．Dancing creates more activities.C．Dancing attracts more participants.D．Dancing inspires us to use more objects.CIt could be said that the northernmost part of our planet holds the secrets of our past as well as our future.The icy land is，in fact，not a place for the weak. This vast land of wilderness is where people can get up close to nature's extremes. The place is “no joke”，US photographer Mark Mahaney told PLAIN Magazine. “When midnight sun is replaced by polar night，everything's different Eyes to the horizon and it's nothing. And then more nothing，in every direction. ”One of the most harsh，yet most pristine（原始的）places on Earth，the Arctic has been affected by human activities-exploration，booming tourism and most importantly，global warming-in recent decades.But the impact of these changes is not restricted to the inhabitants of this area alone. In fact, it could be said that the weight of the world relies on this icy region.The Earth's steady climate depends on the Arctic's sea ice, which acts as a huge white reflector at the top of the planet, bouncing some of the sun's rays back into space. The more Arctic sea ice melts, the less light is reflected, and the more the dark oceans will absorb the sun's radiation. The Arctic also helps circulate ocean currents, moving cold and warm water around the globe.With visible changes in the global climate, the Arctic has given us a wake-up call-what happens up in the North doesn't just stay there. It comes with a high cost to the world at large. It's time for us to pay attention to this chilly region and learn more about what's happening there, as well as its past and possible future.8．What does the underlined sentence "The pla ce is ‘no joke’” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A．The weak are unhappy in the Arctic.B．The natural conditions are poor in the Arctic.C．Photographers are not allowed to take photos.D．People are forbidden to make jokes in the Arctic.9．What has caused the changes in the Arctic?A．Animals and plants. B．Global warmingC．The activities of human beings. D．The scientists' records.10．What is the function of the Arctic's sea ice?A．To regulate climate. B．To keep water clean.C．To attract the sun's rays. D．To support the living creatures. 11．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．The Most Harsh Land B．Changes of the ArcticC．The Arctic Sending Warning Signals D．Nature's Extremes Attracting ScientistsDJob for You!12．Which job requires a driver's license?A．Delivering meals.B．Delivering newspapers.C．Working at the warehouse.D．Working at the nursing home.13．Which of the following is TRUE about the Lancaster Design job?A．Applicants are expected to design furniture.B．Work is arranged according to one's skill set.C．It involves collecting furniture from homes.D．It favors applicants who are homeless.14．A middle-school student is most likely to be hired by.A．Family Alliance Meal DeliveryB．Lancaster DesignC．Lancaster WeeklyD．Parkview Nursing Home15．Which number should you call if you want to work with the elderly?A．740-6668988.B．740-6119735.C．740-6538360.D．740-6968399.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。

ANot many people are comfortable going deep underground.But humans have been going under-ground for as long as we've been humans.All over the world you'll find all manner of magnificent underground phenomena.Here are our favourite.1.Salt Cathedral of Zipaquira,ColombiaEngineers,miners and sculptors managed to carve a cathedral beneath200meres.Even more amazing is just how spectacular the Salt Cathedralof Zipaquira in Colombia is.The light falls through it,filling the rooms and tunnels with almost neon-like blues and purples.Catch it on a Sunday,and you'll discover it's still a fully-functioning Roman Catholic church.2.Salina Turda,RomaniaBuilt deep below the Earth's surface in a salt mine,Salina Turda features attractions like a panoramic wheel,mini-golf,bowling,table tennis and even boating on a mine lake.What the park lacks in traditional high-thrills roller coasters,it makes up for in stunning scenery.3.Under,NorwayThough not so much underground as underwater,Under in Kristiansand,Norway,this classy restaurant is five and a half metres below the surface.Diners enjoy themselves as icy North Sea cur-rents move across the windows.You neverquite know what might emerge out of the deep.4.Thrihnukagigur,IcelandIf you don't want to climb up to a volcano crater or view it from far away,you can take a lift 700feet down into the volcano.Thrihnukagigur is safe,having not erupted in4,000years,but even so,it takes a certain kind of thrill-seeker to actively want to get up close and personal with a volcano.1.Which of the following serves as a church?A.Under in Norway.B.Salina Turda in Romania.C.Thrihnukagigur in Iceland.D.Salt Cathedral of Zipaquira in Colombia.2.What can visitors do at Under in Norway?A.Ride on a roller coaster or play mini-golf.B.Have dinner in an underwater restaurant.C.See the light fill every room in the church.D.Take a lift and go down into the volcano.3.What makes Thrihnukagigur a safe place to visit?A.It's only open to church people on Sunday.B.It features safe recreational equipment.C.The lift can take visitors in and out fast.D.It's been inactive for thousands of years.BMy sixteen-year-old daughter Julia called twenty minutes after she left,saying she had an accident.I grabbed my shoes and was in the car in less than a minute.When I finally saw her,I hugged her tight.Then I looked at the other driver.Learning that he fell asleep behind the wheel at about seventy miles an hour when the speed limit was forty-five,I could have choked him.“It could have been worse,”I reminded myself as she cried all the way to the doctor's office. Luckily,four days after the accident,Julia felt better.At her appointment,her doctor cleared her to resume normal activities,including driving.But I could tell by her look that she had no intention of getting behind the wheel.Later that day,I sat with Julia as she spoke on the phone with our insurance agent.On the phone,she was professional,telling the agent what had happened in a clear,concise way.I realized she sounded like an adult.And adults drive cars.I realized that no matter how I felt about it, allowing Julia to give in to her fear wasn't good for her.When she hung up,I hugged her.“You're stronger than you think,"I said."And tomorrow you're going to drive my car and meet your friends for lunch.You just have to push through the fear and do it,and it will get easier each time you do.”I ignored the fear in her eyes and the way my heart sped up when I thought about Julia behind the wheel again.The next day,Julia drove my car to meet her friends.As I watched her leave,I felt nervous and proud.She texted me when she got to the restaurant,and I felt my heart rate return to normal.The tears I'd been holding back all week flooded my eyes.Watching her leave the house without me for the first time since the accident was frightening,but it was also necessary.4.What was the author's reaction at the driver's words?A.She almost burst with anger.B.She felt guilty for her daughter.C.She felt sympathy for him.D.She was choked with sorrow.5.What did the doctor suggest to Julia?A.Staying away from driving.B.Attending a driving lesson.C.Contacting the insurance agent.D.Retaking her routine activities.6.What did the author realize when Julia spoke on the phone?A.The driver took the blame for the accident.B.The accident had been worse than expected.C.Julia should overcome the fear to drive.D.Julia was smart to deal with any trouble.7.Why did the author cry at Julia's text?A.Julia was good at learning to drive.B.Julia recovered mentally and physically.C.Julia had supportive friends and parents.D.Julia could look after herself when driving.CAs summer comes,the promise of"working from anywhere"comes down to the discomfort of the sweaty kitchen table,a noisy cafe or the office hot desk.Now hotels are offering"third spaces", promoting the concept of work in an elegant setting.Your columnist Bartleby tried out two recent London offerings.She first headed to Birch,a hotel north of the city.Men and women in their20s and early30s work over laptops and glasses of red wine at its Hub co-working area,with classes in pottery, baking,and other structured activities.Some pay a monthly membership fee and enjoy special discounts to stay there and work digitally remotely,but you can,like Bartleby,come as an overnightguest.Her second destination was the Shangri-La hotel in the Shard,which now offers stays from 10am to6pm,aimed at those wishing to work and relax by offering a change of scenery to inspire.Both Birch and the Shangri-La have their virtues,like Birch's excellent Wi-Fi and the stretch class.So does the Shangri-La,with its pool and a view of St Paul's Cathedral from your room on the38th floor.Yet problems soon became apparent.The first is price.An overnight stay at Birch or the Shangri-La sets you back,while the city has plenty of cheaper“third spaces”.The second problem is:how productive workers can be with all the distractions designed to make work not feel like work?Third,if you can get down to business,you may as well be at home or the office.The friendly atmosphere Birch tries so hard to produce is the very thing you miss by staying away from your office.As with most material indulgences（放纵），a sense of emptiness comes once the freshness of the hotel wears off.Just don't expect white-collar types to crowd in hotels for a hard day's work.Most of the Shangri-La's daytime residents aren't executives keen t inspire.As for Bartleby,you will find her at The Economist's London head office or,failing that,her kitchen table.8.What's the purpose of working"third spaces"?A.To free people of traveling to work.B.To promote workplace creativity.C.To place workers in good work settings.D.To help people deal with the lockdown.9.What's the advantage of Birch according to Bartleby?A.It holds regular work-related classes.B.It provides discounts for companies.C.It has inspiring scenery for visitors.D.It offers day work and night stays.10.What does the Shangri-La offer to office workers?A.Stays there in the working hours.B.Stays overnight for office work.C.The friendly office atmosphere.D.Work-related training courses.11.How does the author like the idea of working from hotels?A.Supportive.B.Disapproving.C.Sympathetic.D.Uncertain.DCar tyres produce particles（微粒）when picking up speed or stopping，which are considered by environmental scientists to be one of the most significant sources of micro-plastics in the ocean.Rain-fall and wind carry them into rivers and the sea.They are also released into the atmosphere,where they can circulate into the ocean and back again.A2020study suggested windblown micro-plastics are a bigger source of ocean pollution than rivers.While it is difficult to pin down the exact composition of micro-plastics,there is plenty of re-search which points to tyre dust making up a significant portion.In2017,a global model found tyre wear to be the second largest source of primary micro-plastics in the ocean,at28%.And in 2019,a report by scientists across Europe concluded abrasion（磨损）from car tyres was a large source of micro-plastics.While there remains a lack of data on risks to the environment and human health,the scientists concluded that if future emissions remain constant or increase,the ecological risks could be widespread within a century.Tyre-wear particles are ubiquitous.The average tyre loses4kg over its lifetime,and tyre particles have been found everywhere from the deep sea to the atmosphere,even in the Arctic and the Antarctic.The study of micro plastic is just beginning.Fewer than 100scientific papers about them have been published to date,all of them in the last decade.Edward Kolodziej,a professor at the University of Washington,cites two studies from China showing that tyre dust is an important contributor to urban air pollution.“There're unknown chemicals present in these things that are ending up in our lungs.”Experts call for more transparency from the tyre companies.“But the formula is what gives a manufacturer competitive advantage.Sharing ingredients is difficult and complicated.Very few people,except manufacturers,know what's in the tyres,”said Allen.“When it comes to micro-plastic,we don't know what a safe level is and we may have already passed it."12.What did the global model find about car tyres?A.They cause more pollution to the sea than to rivers.B.Their exact composition can be tracked down.C.Tyre particles are one of the largest sea pollutants.D.They have caused great risk to human survival.13.What does the underlined word "ubiquitous"in paragraph 3mean?A.Widespread.B.Dangerous.plex.D.Unique.14.What can we infer from Edward's words?A.The two studies from China are leading the fashion.B.The unknown chemicals in the air are dangerous.C.Tyre particles are a major pollutant in the air in cities.D.Further research should be done about tyre particles.15.Which is the most suitable title for the text?A.Tyres Are to Blame as a Pollutant in the OceanB.Tyre Companies Should Act Against Micro-plasticC.Tyre Dust Becomes a Huge Threat to Ocean LifeD.Safety Levels of Micro-plastic Have Been Raised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。

Even as the raindrops intensified, folks kept exploring the tables stationed in the parking lot of St. Monica Church. Among the crowd were a number of college students, mostly from the University of Rochester, likely brought in by the College Night awards being offered--a five-dollar token(购物券),a handbag, and a prize raffle entry, all free of charge.Now in its 15th year, Westside volunteer Jackie Farrell said the market partners merelywith local farms, businesses, and community groups to populate its tables. "Our mission really is to serve the people in the community, getting them health and nutrition information, and connecting them to the farmers who grow the produce," Farrell said, "Everything has to be local. It's a producer-only market, so you have to grow or produce whatever you're going to sell here." Those producers had diverse offerings. Vegetables, of course, were abundant but sellers also pushed cheeses, spreads, bread, prepared pasta dishes, and much more.The community groups offering information were diverse too. Recovery All Ways, a local nonprofit with a stated "mission to support anyone affected by substance use disorder" handed out Narcan and trained people in its use. Their station was next to a Moms Demand Action tent, where staffers provided information on physical safety. SNAP-Ed nutrition and benefits educators also ran a table.The activities of the stations was scored by live music. The University's Midnight Ramblers performed, and a local jazz band played away as the rain showers started rolling in.Farrell hoped that the College Night promotion would help make students more comfortable crossing the bridge into the Rochester community." We love college students, and we keep encouraging them that all they have to do is go across the bridge."24.What attracted college students to the College Night?A. Free prizes.B. Scenery in the rain.C. Interesting books.D. Featured goods.25.What is the characteristic of Westside Farmers Market?A. It is managed by farmers themselves.B. Its visitors are mostly university students.C. Its offerings are locally grown or prepared.D. Farmers provide more vegetables than corn.26.Which of the following can best describe the College Night?A. Crowded and chaotic.B. Busy and festive.C. Luxurious and splendid.D. Romantic and peaceful.27.What might be a suitable title for the text?A. Westside Farmers Market is flowering rapidlyB. College Night channels products to communityC. College Night bridges university and communityD. Westside Farmers Market is expanding nationwideCAs a historian who's always searching for the text or the image that makes us re-evaluatethe past, I've become occupied with looking for photographs that show our Victorian ancestors smiling. I've found quite a few, but disappointingly my collection of 'Smiling Victorians' makes up only a tiny percentage of the vast ocean of photographic portraits (肖像画) created between 1840 and 1900 the majority of which show sitters posing like marble statues in front of painted backdrops, or staring absently into the middle distance. How do we explain this trend?During the 1840s and 1850s, in the early days of photography, exposure time was shockingly long: the daguerreotype photographic method (银版照相法) could take several minutes to complete, resulting in unclear images as sitters shifted position or adjusted their arms and legs. So a blank stare instead of a fixed smile became the norm. But exposure time was much shorter by the 1880s. Natural smiles were relatively easy to capture by the 1890s, so we must look elsewhere for an explanation of why Victorians still hesitated to smile.One explanation might be the loss of dignity displayed through a cheesy smile. "Nature gave us lips to cover our teeth," ran one popular Victorian saying, indicating an easy-to-ignore fact that before the birth of proper dentistry, mouths and irregular and yellow teeth were like peas and carrots. A flashing set of healthy and clean, regular pearly white teeth was a rare sight in Victorian society, the preserve of the super-rich.A toothy smile, especially when there were gaps or blackened teeth, lacked class: Drunks, beggars, and some music hall performers might makes faces and smile with a laugh as wide 8s Lewis Carroll's gum-exposing Cheshire Cat, but it was not a becoming look for properly brought-up people. Even Mark Twain, a man who enjoyed a hearty laugh, said that when it came to photographic portraits there could be “nothing more stomach-turning than a silly, foolish smile fixed forever".28.What do the underlined words “this trend" in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. Collectors' preference for portraits.B. Victorians' tension before the camera.C. Historians' search for new photographs.D. Photographers' need of new techniques.29.What is a cause of Victorians' unwillingness to smile in the 1890s?A. The shockingly long exposure time.B. The requirement of clear pictures.C. The misunderstanding of dignity.D. The worrying dental condition.30.Why does the author mention Lewis Carroll and Mark Twain?A. To introduce a new topic.B. To make a certain prediction.C. To illustrate a point of view.D. To provide some useful advice.31.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. The Secret of Victorians' PortraitsB. Photographs of Victorians: Faded SmilesC. A Question for Victorians: to Smile or NotD. A Strange Story- the Unsmiling VictoriansDVoice cloning is when a computer program is used to generate a synthetic(合成的), adaptable copy of a person's voice. From a recording of someone talking, the software is able to then copy his or her voice speaking any words or sentences that you type into a keyboard.Such have been the recent advances in the technology that the computer generated audio is now said to be shockingly exact. The software can pick up not just your accent-but your timbre(音质),pace, flow of speaking and your breathing. And the cloned voice can be adjusted to express any required emotion-such as anger, fear, happiness or boredom.Voice cloning can also be used to translate an actor's words into different languages, therefore potentially meaning, for example, that US film production companies will no longer need to hire additional actors to make sound-copied versions of their movies for overseas distribution.Yet despite it obvious commercial potential, voice coning has also led to growing concerns that it could be used in cyber(网络)crime-to trick people that someone else is talking. And cyber security expert Eddy Bobritsky says there is a "huge security risk" that comes with the synthetic voices, In fact, such a case was reported by the Wall Street Journal in 2019,with a UK manager said io have been tricked into transferring 190,000 to cyber-criminals who used a cloned copy of the voice of his German boss.Therefore, steps to deal with this new technology and the threats it brings with it need tobe made. And fi round the world are in fact already doing this. Such companies can monitor audio to see if it is fake, looking for tell-tale signs like repetition, digital noise, and the use of certain phrases or words Meanwhile, governments and law agencies are also looking at the issue. Last year, the EU urged its member states to make "significant investments" in technologies that can detect deepfakes.32.How far has voice cloning gone?A. An accent can be changed randomly.B. Speech features of a person can be copied exactly.C. Words and sentences typed can be recognized easily.D. Computer-generated audios can record emotions accurately.33.How does voice cloning benefit film companies?A. It popularizes their movies.B. It reduces production costs.C .It expands overseas markets.D. It trains their amateur actors.34.What does the underlined phrase "huge security risk" mean in paragraph 4?A. Voice cloning can be used illegally.B. Employees have doubts on their bosses.C. People are forced to commit a crime.D. Synthetic voice loses its commercial value.35.What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. The procedures to detect a fake cloned voice.B. The urges to increase investment in voice cloning.C. The methods to improve the quality of cloned voice.D. The measures to prevent negative effects of voice cloning.第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分25分）阅读下面短文，从短文后提供的选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项。

新高考英语模拟试卷（一）一、阅读理解（每题2 分，满分40 分）第一节、（共 15 小题，每题 2 分，满分30 分）阅读以下短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、 B、 C 和 D ）中，选出最正确选项。
AFor the business traveler who's all about efficiency: check out these hotels that willget you in and out with a minimum trouble.When you're pressed for time on a business trip, nothing can infuriate you more than a slow hotel check -in process. On your next trip, try these hotels that offer a speedier check-in process.◆ Marriott Detroit AirportAnother option for business travelers in a hurry: Marriott is rolling out its mobile check-in app to 325 hotels this year, including the Marriott Detroit Airport hotel. (I've tested the app itself but not for a real visit quite yet.) here is the basic idea: you download the iPhone or Android app. The night before, you can“ check -in”virtually. When you arrive, you get an alert that the room is ready and your key, which is already tied to your reservation,is waiting for you at the desk.◆Hyatt Regency MinneapolisI happened to stay at this hotel recently and liked how fast the kiosk check-in works. The kiosk asks you to insert your credit card, similar to an airport terminal. The whole process took about 3 minutes. When I left, I was equally impressed with the fast check-out: An agent meets you in the lobby with, an iPad and asks for an email to use for a receipt. The big advantage: you never have to wait in line.◆Radisson LaCrosseThe Radisson is trying to make the kiosk process even faster. At a few select hotels like the Radisson Lacrosse in Wisconsin，you use a mobile app to register and then receive a bar code by email or text. When you get to the kiosk, you can scan the bar code to getyour key without any other steps required. It's super fast. You can find this new check-in system at the Radisson hotels in Salt Lake City, Seattle, and Phoenix as well.1.What does the word‘ infuriate', in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?A.annoyB.remindC.amuseD.impress2.Which two hotels offer a mobile app for customers to check in?A.Marriott Detroit Airport and Yotel New York.B.Marriott Detroit Airport and Radisson LaCrosse.C.Marriott Detroit Airport and Hyatt Regency Minneapolis.出色文档．D.Hyatt Regency Minneapolis and Radisson LaCrosse.3.Which hotel will send you a receipt by email?A.Yotel New York.B.Marriott Detroit Airport.C.Radisson LaCrosse.D.Hyatt Regency Minneapolis.4.What is the best title for the passage?A.Checking out the hotels will make you in troubleB.Three hotels that will make your life easierC.Try these hotels that offer you comfortD.Hotels for the travelersBIt was a delightful family reunion at our lake cabin in Longville, Minnesota. My parents came from their home to spend the summer reconnecting with three generations. It was a week of happiness that my mother enjoyed from her wheelchair.Her six -year -old great -grandchild, Joy, seemed to understand she was fragile, and she would always slow down whenever she was close to her. She knew her arms weren'tstrong enough to hold her, so she would lean gently into her lap and press her headagainst her chest. At night, after she was helped into bed, Joy would flash her sweet smile and hug her great-grandma for a goodnight kiss.One day, the women decided to go into town for a ladies' coffee outing.

They include potato, corn, vegetable oil and banana.He made the ingredients into liquid and used the liquid to make the bag. Although theEnviGreen bag is about 35 percent more expensive than a common plastic bag, it hasmany advantages. According to the Wall Street Journal, it takes 1,000 years for commonplastic bags to break down. But an EnviGreen bag can naturally break down in less than180 days.

However, many employees want to work a four -day week and are willing to acceptless pay in order to do so.If a law required companies to offer their employees the option of working a four -day workweek for four -fifths of their normal pay, it would benefit the economy as a whole aswell as the individual companies and the employees who would decide to take the option.The shortened workweek would increase company profits because employees would feelmore rested and quicker, and as a result, they would make fewer costly errors in theirwork. More staff would be hired to ensure the accomplishment of the same amount ofwork, but it would not result in additional pay that the company has to prepare for these出色文档．适用标准文案people. It is because four-day employees would only be paid 80 percent of the normal rate.（简单犯错的）In the end, companies would have fewer overworked and error-proneemployees for the same money, which would increase company profits.For the country asa whole, one of the primary benefits of offering this option toemployees is that it would reduce unemployment rates.

The platform is all about photos with short captions (说明文字). When it comes to Instagram's users, 53 percent of them are aged 18—29, but a big percentage of those may be even younger and simply list their age as 18 in order to rise the platform.Habbo HotelHabbo Hotel is a place for teens to chat.

I received financial aid, and I was able to cover the cost of enrollment, books, supplies, course materials, and additional school-related fees. But I could not afford housing, transportation, food, healthcare, or other basic necessities. The longer each semester went on, the harder the choices became.When spring semester ended that first year at college, I had good grades, but I did not have two quarters to my name. I decided that if I could afford to be a full-time student, I would need to work a full-time job. Soon, I started working at the airport as a cleaner of aircraft cabins. My first shift at the airport was a graveyard shift, where I detailed aircraft of varying sizes. During this total night shift, I have to do "deep cleaning", which meant cleaning everything and even I had to check every safety compartment and replace any missing items. This could be disgusting work.Another fact upset me a lot that working at the airport and going to school did not fit easily together. Some days I was too exhausted after a night shift to get to class. Other days I didn't have time to complete school assignments owing to a busy workday. At the end of the fall semester, I received a final warning for my attendance at my job. Once again, I was between a rock and a hard place and had to make a decision. I wanted to go to school and excel, but I also had grown accustomed to financially supporting myself.Ultimately, I chose to temporarily stop going to school and to continue working, a decision. Iwould later regret. The airline closed for various reasons. I felt stupid. I had put a lot into this job, even sacrificing my education, and now I would have neither job nor education. I'd finally learned what my grandmother meant when she once said that your job is temporary, you’re your education is forever.8．What can we learn about the author from paragraph l?A．He was financially embarrassedB．He could hardly attend college.C．Housing accounted for his biggest expenseD．His financial aid could cover his necessities.9．How does the author find the job as a cleaner of aircraft cabins?A．Rewarding B．exciting C．boring D．demanding 10．Why was the author in a dilemma between working at the airport and going to school?A．Working at the airport upset the author.B．The author was too exhausted after a night shift.C．The author received a final warning for bad attendance at school.D．The author's school schedule doesn't fit the working time properly.11．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．He who makes no mistakes makes nothing.B．The significance of schooling last forever.C．Nothing is difficult to the man who will try.D．One should be financially supported by himself.DMany people count on faster, cheaper and better technology to offer a vision of a brighter future. Nevertheless, as the 2020s dawn, optimism is in short supply. The new technologies that dominated the past decade seem to be making matters worse. Social media were supposed to bring people together, but they are better known for leaking privacy. E-commerce, ride-hailing and the gig economy (零工经济) may be convenient, but they are charged with underpaying workers, worsening inequality and blocking the streets with vehicles.Today's pessimistic mood is centered on smart phones and social media, which took off a decade ago. Yet concerns that particular technologies might be doing more harm than good have arisen before. The 1920s witnessed a criticism against cars, which had earlier been seen as an answer to the problems caused by horse-drawn vehicles which filled the streets with noise and animal waste and caused accidents. And industrialization was criticized in the 19th century by Romantics who worried about the replacement of skilled workers, the robbing of the countryside and the suffering of factory hands.However, that pessimism can be overdone. Too often people focus on the drawbacks of anew technology while taking its benefits for granted. Worries about screen time should be weighed against the much more substantial benefits of convenient communication and the instant access to information and entertainment that smartphones make possible. A further danger is that Luddite（反对技术进步者）efforts to avoid the short-term costs associated with a new technology will end up denying access to its long-term benefits-something Carl Benedikt Frey, an Oxford academic, calls a "technology trap". Fears that robots will steal people's jobs may discourage their use. Yet in the long run countries that wish to maintain their standard of living as their workforce ages and shrinks will need more robots, not fewer.Any powerful technology can be used for good or ill. It is the choices people make about it that shape the world. Perhaps the real source of anxiety is not technology itself, but growing doubts about the ability of societies to hold this debate, and come up with good answers. So as the decade turns, put aside the pessimism for a moment. To be alive in the tech-obsessed 2020sis to be among the luckiest people who have ever lived.12．According to paragraph 1, the following are the problems with the new technologies of the past decade except ．A．Leaking privacy. B．Underpaying workersC．Bringing people together D．worsening inequality13．What does the author want to tell us by the examples in paragraph 2?A．criticism against cars.B．Origin of pessimistic mood.C．Worries about the replacement of skilled workers.D，Problems caused by horse-drawn vehicles.14．What does a "technology trap" refer to?A．People worry about the drawbacks of a new technology.B．People take the benefits of a new technology for granted.C．Robots will steal people's jobs.D．Present costs of a new technology prevent its future benefits.15．What is the author's attitude to new technologies?A．subjective B．objective C．pessimistic D．critical第二节（共5小题：每小题分，满分分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
