第Ⅰ卷第一部分 听力 (共两节，满分30分)（略） 第二部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分40分) 第一节 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A 、B 、C 和D ）中，选出最佳选项。
ATaj Mahal, Agra, IndiaAs many as 28 different varieties of semi-precious and precious stones were used to decorate the outside of the Taj Mahai. Construction of the Taj Mahai took around 20 years, beginning in around 1632 and finishing around 1653. Exact dates are unknown. The building, which was made from white marble from the quarries(采石场)of Rajasthan, appears pink in the morning, white in the day and golden in the moonlight. The building is symmetrical (对称) in every way, and was built as a memorial to the wife of Mughal emperor Shah Jahan. Completion date: 1653.Akashi Kaikyo Bridge, Akashi Strait, JapanIt took 2 million workers 10 years to construct the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge. It connects the city of Kobe, on japan's mainland, with Iwaya on Awaji Island. Before it opened, the only way to get between the two cities was by ferry. However, the waterway was often stricken by severe storms and when two ferries turned over in 1955, killing 168 people, public anger convinced the government of the need for a bridge. It's 1,991 meters long. Completion date: April 5, 1998.Panama Canal, PanamaMore than 4.5 million cubic yards of concrete were used in the construction of this canal's locks and dams. The Panama Canal is a 77-kilometer long waterway that connects the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The earth and rubble excavated to make way for it would have been enough to bury Manhattan to a depth of four meters. A series of locks allows shipsto pass through the water; each of the moveable lock doors weighs 750 tons and each of the locks fills with 52 million gallons of water to accommodate the 15,000 ships that use the canal every year. It was completed on January 7, 1914 after 10 years of building.Grand Canyon Skywalk, ArizonaThe Skywalks foundation is strong enough to support 71 million pounds. Located 1,219 meters above the Colorado River, the Grand Canyon Skywalk consists of one million pounds of steel and 83, 000 pounds of glass. It was the creation of Las Vegas businessman David Jin, who approached the Hualapai Tribe with the idea of a glass walkway over the Grand Canyon in 1996. The Skywalk was assembled (ERLE)on site, with the drilling alone taking over a year to complete. Completion date: March 28, 2007.21. Which of the constructions took the longest time to build? A. The Taj Mahal.B. The Akashi Kaikyo Bridge.C. The Panama Canal.D. The Grand Canyon Skywalk.22. The Japanese government decided to build the Akashi Kaikyo Bridge ______. A. in the year of 1955 B. following public opinion C. to show its national power D. to develop Japan's economy23. The Grand Canyon Skywalk is probably a real challenge for those who _____. A. are airsick B. hate rock climbing C. have a fear of heights D. feel ill travelling in boatsBI decided to ski to the North Pole. It was after I saw an advertisement in a newspaper looking for people to join a team to ski 350 miles to the North Pole. Back in 1996, there had never been a woman from the UK who had accomplished this challenge. I wondered what此卷只装订不密封班级 姓名 准考证号 考场号 座位号it would be like to survive in temperatures cold enough to freeze your flesh in seconds, so I sent off for the application form.The application form full of pictures of male explores arrived. The w ords “Are you man enough for the ultimate（极限的）challenge?” made me angry and even more determined to get on the team.Over 500 individuals applied for a place in the team, and the selection process included physical and psychological tests designed to pick the best group. In one test, there was a huge rope ladder we had to climb, and I froze at the top because I have a fear of heights.I thought my hopes were fading as most other applicants sailed past, leaving me behind. But two others helped me over, and later I found out that the organizers were not looking for amazing individuals, but great team players, and this moment had shown them who would take care of others in the team.I had revealed（显示）my weakness, and in a place like the Arctic, you have to be yourself, as there is nowhere to hide. These personalities of asking for help and showing weakness are necessary for women to master.I realized that by being myself, I could succeed. I was selected for the team. I realized that I could achieve more than I ever imagined — more importantly, by sharing my story with others, I could inspire them to take a step into the new world and reveal more of their abilities.24. How did the author react on seeing the advertisement?A. She got cross.B. She was determined.C. She got frightened.D. She was hesitating.25. What did the organizers view as the most important in the selection of new hands?A. Personal quality.B. Individual-ability.C. Spirit of teamwork.D. Courage to challenge.26. What does the author think of women’s showing weakness?A. Beneficial.B. Shameful.C. Merciful.D. Disturbing.27. What’s the intention of the author in writing this passage?A. To inspire us to prepare for our future goal.B. To advise women how to turn to others.C. To make suggestions to her team members.D. To encourage people to explore the unknown.CLi ke “Titanic (1997)” and another record- breaking “Avatar (2009)”, the very first film to hit one billion yuan at China’s box office, both directed by James Cameron, American films are an unavoidable part and hold plenty of appeal for Chinese film-goers, including me. However, while American movies have gained great influence in China and become part of everyday popular culture, Chinese films have failed to win an equal amount of recognition in the U.S. market.Hollywood, known as a remarkable film production center, exported the biggest number of mainstream movies around the globe. Both its marvelous storytelling techniques and smooth production process have made it the most successful film industry in the world, gaining global acceptance. It has its own standards about the scriptwriting format throughout its filmmaking process while China has no such. Moreover, in Hollywood, a break during the production period is a must for all crew members whereas most Chinese film crew do not even allow their production team time to rest on the weekend.Besides production, content is another important aspect of Hollywood’s cultural exportation. The United States is known as a melting pot, as it is a country of immigrants. Its culture, in a way, is more diversified than oth ers’. And we can see an increased diversity in Hollywood movies over the years, especially since 2000. For example, in 2017, Hollywood blockbuster (大片) “Coco (2017)” tells the story of a Mexican boy who dreams of being a musician. Full of elements of the Mexican culture, the movie caused a global fever for Mexican music at the time. It also achieved great results in China, ranking as the 10th highest grossing (最高票房) film in the country in2017, with the box office being over one billion yuan.In contrast, China’s highest grossing film of 2017, “Wolf Warrior 2”, despite having created a new record in the country’s box office, did not get too much attenti on in the U. S. market. In fact, there is hardly any Chinese movie that has become a blockbuster inforeign markets. One of the reasons may be that most Chinese films only tell domestic stories with strong domestic elements, which is not wrong but makes it hard to attract foreign viewers due to the narrow themes.While seeking to tell Chinese stories that are able to gain global popularity is still a question for Chinese filmmakers, fortunately, the technical aspect in the Chinese film industry has been improving thanks to the abundant cash flow in the market. When that day comes, more people will get a chance to learn more about China, one of the most beautiful places on the planet, which reminds me of the famous quote from “The Shawshank Redemption (1994)”, “Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things. And no good thing ever dies.”28．What can we conclude from the passage?A．Chinese films are not well worth watching compared with Hollywood movies. B．Chinese films are in a sense not as popular globally despite abundant cash flow. C．Who directed China’s highest grossing film of 2017, “Wolf Warrior 2” is evident. D．American films global acceptance is bound to worsen the Chinese film industry greatly. 29．Why do most Chinese films hardly attract foreign viewers?A．Because they have no knowledge of Chinese filmmakers.B．Because the Chinese culture is more diversified than others’.C．Because they only tells Chinese stories with strong domestic elements. D．Because in China there is no unusually successful hit like Hollywood Blockbuster. 30．What is the main idea of the passage?A．American films have gained great influence in China.B．How Chinese stories affect the American film market.C．The outline about the history and development of Hollywood.D．Why Chinese films fail to gain much recognition in the U. S market.31．What is the author’s opinio n towards the present situation of Chinese films? A．Contradictory. B．Objective.C．Doubtful. D．Indifferent.DDuring Amsterdam’s chaotic rush hour, nine -year-old Lotta Crok cycles to a very busy junction. “Look,” she says. “There’s traffic coming from eve rywhere. Four trams from four different directions. For a child on a bike that’s really confusing!”Lotta is the first junior cycle mayor in the world and her working area is the Dutch capital. You would think this challenge would be superfluous in a city known as the bicycle capital of the world. The number of bicycles in Amsterdam is estimated at 81,000 - more than the city’s 850,000 inhabitants - and 63% of the population cycle daily.But children who cycle in Amsterdam face challenges, Lotta says: “The three biggest problems for us are cars, cycling tourists and scooters (小型摩托). The cars take up too much space, the tourists are always swinging side to side and stop when you least expect it, and the scooters simply run you over.”Lotta became junior cycle mayor in June last year when she won a contest in which school children were asked to come up with plans to make cycling safer and more fun. Her idea was to add children’s bikes to the popular bike share programme.Since Lotta was appointed junior cycle mayor, she has been busy, giving interviews, opening cycling contests in the city and being a jury (评审员) member during the Amsterdam Light Parade, an event in which Amsterdammers decorate their bikes with lights.She is now planning a meeting with the city’s mayor to discuss ideas that children have come up with: “One of our proposals is a bicycle park where children can learn how to cycle. Right now, most of us learn a it in the street, which can be quite busy. Another idea is to create an app for tourists to teach them the rules of cycling, because most of them really don’t know.”Following the success of the Amsterdam scheme, cycle mayors around the world are now planning to appoint junior colleagues. “They see it works really well,” Boerma, the senior maj or, says. “I talk to the parents, Lotta talks to the children. And if you look at the city through the eyes of a child, you will also make it accessible for others. A city that’s good for an eight-year-old is also good for an 88-year-old.”32．Why is a junior cycle mayor appointed in Amsterdam?A．To teach children how to ride.B．To ensure cycling is safer for children.C．To give suggestions to the city’s mayor on how to run the city.D．To organize the cycling contests in the city.33．Which word can best rep lace the underlined word “superfluous” in paragraph 2?A．Important. B．Unnecessary.C．Difficult. D．Valuable.34．What has Lotta done since she became the bike mayor?A．She has solved the three biggest problems for children cycling in Amsterdam.B．She has won a contest about cycling.C．She has given interviews and been a jury member during a parade.D．She has given proposals to the city mayor.35．What’s Boerma’s attitude to the junior cycle mayor?A．Cautious. B．Favorable.C．Ambiguous. D．Disapproving.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。

Talk with native speakers in the flesh.BWhen a driver slams on the brakes to avoid hitting a pedestrian crossing the road illegally, she is making a moral decision that shifts risk from the pedestrian to the people in the car. Self-driving cars might soon have to make such ethical(道德的) judgments on their own — but settling on a universal moral code for the vehicles could be a tough task, suggests a survey.The largest ever survey of machine ethics, called the Moral Machine, laid out 13 possible situations in which someone’s death was unavoidable. Respondents were asked to choose who to spare in situations that involved a mix of variables: young or old, rich or poor, more people or fewer. Within 18 months, the online quiz had recorded 40 million decisions made by people from 233 countries and territories.When the researchers analysed these answers, they found that the nations could be divided into three groups. One contains North America and several European nations where Christianity has been the dominant(占支配地位的) religion; another includes countries such as Japan, Indonesia and Pakistan, with strong Confucian or Islamic traditions. A third group consists of countries in Central and South America, such as Colombia and Brazil. The first group showed a stronger preference for sacrificing older lives to save younger ones than did the second group, for example.The researchers also identified relationships between social and economic factors in a country. They found that people from relatively wealthy countries with strong institutions, such as Finland and Japan, more often chose to hit people who stepped into traffic illegally than did respondents in nations with weaker institutions, such as Nigeria or Pakistan.People rarely face such moral dilemmas, and some cities question whether the possible situations posed in the online quiz are relevant to the ethical and practical questions surrounding driverless cars. But the researchers argue that the findings reveal cultural differences that governments and makers of self-driving cars must take into account if they want the vehicles to gain public acceptance.At least Barbara Wege, who heads a group working on autonomous-vehicle ethics at Audi in Ingolstadt, Germany, says such studies are valuable. Wege argues that self-driving cars would cause fewer accidents, proportionally, than human drivers do each year — but that people might focus more on events involving robots.Surveys such as the Moral Machine can help to begin public discussions about these unavoidable accidents that might develop trust. “We need to come up witha social consensus,” she says, “about which risks we are willing to take.”24.Why is it difficult to set universal moral rules for programming self-driving cars?A.Social values always change with the times.B.Moral choices vary between different cultures.C.Drivers have a preference for sacrificing the weak.D.Car makers are faced with decisions of life or death.25.The researchers conducted the study by _____.ing a massive online quiz worldwideparing different cultures and customs精品教育试卷习题文档2C.dividing the respondents into three groupsD.performing a series of controlled experiments26.According to the study, in which country are drivers more likely to hita pedestrian crossing the road illegally?A.Nigeria.B.Colombia.C.Finland.D.Indonesia.27.Barbara Wege would probably agree that _____.A.Self-driving cars will greatly improve the traffic environmentB.Accidents caused by self-driving cars might receive more attentionC.Problems involving self-driving cars might shake the public trust in societyD.Car makers needn’t take the risk of solving self-driving car ethical dilemmasCSixty-four-year-old Pierre Deom has spent his entire life close to the woods and fields that he loves. Twice a year, his magazine, La Hulotte, focuses on an animal or plant native to the French countryside.The 100th edition was published in November. The magazine counts more than 150,000 subscribers in many countries, and is doing very well financially. Deom says it all began in January 1972, when he was teaching science in a one-room schoolhouse here. “It upset me how the forests and swamps were beginning to be ruined. The word ‘ecology’(生态学) didn’t really exist yet. Some friends and I wanted to call attention to the issue. So we said, let’s educate the kids. They’re ready to hear our message.” So he took a step into the unknown, planning to publish his nature journal.Deom does all the research and writing and the illustrations(插图) of the magazine by hand. He combines science and humor in his writing and drawing to describe the daily life and sufferings of his creatures. Animals you might overlook or consider dull are magically and vividly brought to life in La Hulotte. “I try to write about animals and plants that are easy to find because I want kids to put on boots, take a magnifying glass, go to the woods and fields to observe and be amazed by what they find,” Deom says.And it seems to work. Biologist Jerome Fournier began subscribing to La Hulotte when he was just eight years old. “For me it was the first contact with nature when I was a child. And maybe it’s the beginning for my life of scientist.I think so.”What’s amazing is its approach. The magazine has realistic drawings and also a little cast of cartoon creatures who comment on things and give a different views. You can read it as an adult or a child; it can be understood on two different levels. So scientists, regular people and children all get something out of it. “It’s extraordinary.” Fournier says, who works at the Museum of Natural History in Paris, where he says La Hulotte has a crazy following.28. What does the underlined word “subscribers” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Readers.B. Editors.C. Sellers.D. Collectors.29. What’s the purpose of creating the magazine?A. To make a lot of money.B. To finish the task of teaching.C. To enlarge the areas of forests.D. To promote people’s awareness of ecology.30. Which words can best describe the magazine La Hulotte?A. Scientific and interesting.B. Magical and dull.C. Vivid and unreal.D. Hard to understand.31. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. The magazine is a cartoon one.3B. Adults find the magazine too easy.C. Many scientists are the fans of the magazine.D. The magazine is not fit for regular people to read.DGold is one of the rarest materials on Earth and has always been considered a valuable and precious resource. It’s very likely that someone in your family owns something made of gold, especially since China is one of the world’s biggest buyers of gold jewellery. It’s even in our smartphones — they contain parts made from this expensive material.But where does this beautiful metal actually come from? The answer: outer space.This August, Chinese scientists became the first in the world to witness gravitational waves(引力波) caused by the collision of neutron(中子) stars, reported Xinhua News Agency.The sight was witnessed at China’s Kunlun Antarctic Station at the South Pole, and Insight, China’s first X-ray astronomical satellite, also contributed to the discovery.Although collisions of black holes have been recorded before, this was the first time that two neutron stars were known to have collided. It’s believed that such collisions lead to huge explosions of energy, and even to the creation of precious metals such as gold and silver.“The collision of neutron stars is like a very large gold factory in the universe,” Jin Zhiping, a researcher at the Purple Mountain Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, told Xinhua.According to an article published by , scientists have long believed gold and other materials are created in this way, but it wasn’t until the recent collision that their theory was confirmed.“The origin of the really heaviest chemical elements in the universe had confused the scientific community for quite a long time,” Hans Thomas Janka, a senior scientist at the Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics in Germany, said in a news release. “Now, we have the first observational proof for neutron star mergers(合并) as sources.”Indeed, the recently observed collision is thought to have produced an amount of gold that would weigh 10 times more than Earth, according to New Scientist.Don’t expect to be showered in gold any time soon, however. The collision actually took place 130 million years ago, taking all that time for the event’s light to reach Earth.But at least if you want to see a piece of space up close, all you have to do is to look at the ring on your mom’s finger — or the smartphone in your pocket.32.What’s the author’s purpose of writing the first two paragraphs?A.To emphasize the rareness of gold.B.To list some uses of gold in daily life.C.To explain the reasons for the popularity of gold.D.To interest readers about the source of gold.33.What would the collision of neutron stars lead to according to Xinhua?A.The creation of black holes.B.The death of the stars.C.The disappearance of gravitational waves.D.The creation of gold.34.What’s the text mainly about?A.China’s Kunlun Antarctic Station does research into gold.B.Collisions between two neutron stars result in gold.C.Collisions contribute to the discovery.D.Gold is considered a valuable and precious resource.35.What can we learn from the article?精品教育试卷习题文档4A.The amount of gold produced by the collision was very small.B.The collision was the largest reported in history.C.China played a big role in the new discovery.D.The collision took place 130 years ago.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，选项中有两项为多余选项。

Wege argues that self-driving cars would cause fewer accidents, proportionally, than human drivers do each year —but that people might focus more on events involving robots.Surveys such as the Moral Machine can help to begin public discussions about these unavoidable accidents that might develop trust. “We need to come up with a social consensus,” she says, “about which risks we are willing to take.”24.Why is it difficult to set universal moral rules for programming self-driving cars?A.Social values always change with the times.B.Moral choices vary between different cultures.C.Drivers have a preference for sacrificing the weak.D.Car makers are faced with decisions of life or death.25.The researchers conducted the study by _____.ing a massive online quiz worldwideB.c-o/mparing different cultures and customsC.dividing the respondents into three groupsD.performing a series of controlled experiments26.According to the study, in which country are drivers more likely to hit a pedestrian crossing the road illegally?A.Nigeria.B.Colombia.C.Finland.D.Indonesia.27.Barbara Wege would probably agree that _____.A.Self-driving cars will greatly improve the traffic environmentB.Accidents caused by self-driving cars might receive more attentionC.Problems involving self-driving cars might shake the public trust in societyD.Car makers needn’t take the risk of solving self-driving car ethical dilemmasCSixty-four-year-old Pierre Deom has spent his entire life close to the woods and fields that he loves. Twice a year, his magazine, La Hulotte, focuses on an animal or plant native to the French countryside.The 100th edition was published in November. The magazine counts more than 150,000 subscribers in many countries, and is doing very well financially. Deom says it all began in January 1972, when he was teaching science in a one-room schoolhouse here. “It upset me how the forests and swamps were beginning to be ruined. The word ‘ecology’(生态学) didn’t really exist yet. Some friends and I wanted to call attention to the issue. So we said, let’s educate the kids. They’re ready to hear our message.” So he took a step in to the unknown, planning to publish his nature journal.Deom does all the research and writing and the illustrations(插图) of the magazine by hand. He combines science and humor in his writing and drawing to describe the daily life and sufferings of his creatures. Animals you might overlook or consider dull are magically and vividly brought to life in La Hulotte. “I try to write about animals and plants that are easy to find because I want kids to put on boots, take a magnifying glass, go to the woods and field s to observe and be amazed by what they find,” Deom says.And it seems to work. Biologist Jerome Fournier began subscribing to La Hulotte when he was just eight years old. “For me it was the first contact with nature when I was a child. And maybe it’s th e beginning for my life of scientist. I think so.”What’s amazing is its approach. The magazine has realistic drawings and also a little cast of cartoon creatures who comment on things and give a different views. You can read it as an adult or a child; it can be understood on two different levels. So scientists, regular people and children all get something out of it. “It’sextraordinary.” Fournier says, who works at the Museum of Natural History in Paris, where he says La Hulotte has a crazy following.28. W hat does the underlined word “subscribers” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Readers.B. Editors.C. Sellers.D. Collectors.29. What’s the purpose of creating the magazine?A. To make a lot of money.B. To finish the task of teaching.C. To enlarge the areas of forests.D. To promote people’s awareness of ecology.30. Which words can best describe the magazine La Hulotte?A. Scientific and interesting.B. Magical and dull.C. Vivid and unreal.D. Hard to understand.31. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. The magazine is a cartoon one.B. Adults find the magazine too easy.C. Many scientists are the fans of the magazine.D. The magazine is not fit for regular people to read.DGold is one of the rarest materials on Earth and has always been considered a valuable and precious resource. It’s very likely that someone in your family owns something made of gold, especially since China is one of the world’s biggest buyers of gold jewellery. It’s even in our smartphones — they contain parts made from this expensive material.But where does this beautiful metal actually come from? The answer: outer space.This August, Chinese scientists became the first in the world to witness gravitational waves(引力波) caused by the collision of neutron(中子) stars, reported Xinhua News Agency.The sight was witnessed at China’s Kunlun Antarctic Station at the South Pole, and Insight, China’s first X-ray astronomical satellite, also contributed to the discovery.Although collisions of black holes have been recorded before, this was the first time that two neutron stars were known to have collided. It’s believed that such collisions lead to huge explosions of energy, and even to the creation of precious metals such as gold and silver.“The collision of neutron s tars is like a very large gold factory in the universe,” Jin Zhiping, a researcher at the Purple Mountain Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, told Xinhua.According to an article published by space.c-o/m, scientists have long believed gold and other materials are created in this way, but it wasn’t until the recent collision that their theory was confirmed.“The origin of the really heaviest chemical elements in the universe had confused the scientific community for quite a long time,” Hans Thomas Janka, a senior scientist at the Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics in Germany, said in a news release. “Now, we have the first observational proof for neutron star mergers(合并) as sources.”Indeed, the recently observed collision is thought to have produced an amount of gold that would weigh 10 times more than Earth, according to New Scientist.Don’t expect to be showered in gold any time soon, however. The collision actually took place 130 million years ago, taking all that time for the event’s light to reach Earth.But at least if you want to see a piece of space up close, all you have to do is to look at the ring on your mom’s finger — or the smartphone in your pocket.32.What’s the author’s purpose of writing the first two paragraphs?A.To emphasize the rareness of gold.B.To list some uses of gold in daily life.C.To explain the reasons for the popularity of gold.D.To interest readers about the source of gold.33.What would the collision of neutron stars lead to according to Xinhua?A.The creation of black holes.B.The death of the stars.C.The disappearance of gravitational waves.D.The creation of gold.34.What’s the text mainly about?A.China’s Kunlun Antarctic Station does research into gold.B.Collisions between two neutron stars result in gold.C.Collisions contribute to the discovery.D.Gold is considered a valuable and precious resource.35.What can we learn from the article?A.The amount of gold produced by the collision was very small.B.The collision was the largest reported in history.C.China played a big role in the new discovery.D.The collision took place 130 years ago.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，选项中有两项为多余选项。

AWhen Kevin Durant gave his tearful MVP speech in 2014, the NBA star made sure to thank one person who had been there with him from the very beginning: his mother.

But it is also imperative that he prepares for his future.” Wh ile she advised him toenjoy the rewards of his labor, she also wanted to make sure that her son knew the importance of financial planning.She told the audience that when she found herself a single parent to two children at 21, she couldn’t follow the financial principles. Rather than planning for the future, she focused only on how her money could make ends meet for that moment.Recently, Durant has teamed up with Laurene Powell Jobs for a new philanthropic program called College Track which is aimed at helping disadvantaged kids attend college. As part of the program, Durant has committed to donating $10 million to his hometown’s public school system.Durant’s mom says that in addition to his financial decisions, she is proud of his philanthropic work and his desire to help the community. “I thought giving back was always very important, and so we talked about that and he had seen that from us as a family and it’s one of the things that I taught him,” she says.21.What is The Real MVP: The Wanda Durant Story mainly about?A.

Business.B. SportsC. TourismD. HealthCBlue Planet II's latest episode focuses on how plastic is having a disastrous effect on the ocean and slowly poisoning our sea creatures．Researchers recently also found that sea creatures living in the deepest place on Earth，the Mariana Trench，have plastic in their stomachs．Indeed，the oceans are drowningin plastic．Though it seems now that the world couldn't possibly function without plastics，consumerplastics are a remarkably recent invention．The first plastic bags were introduced in the 1950s；the same decade that plastic packaging began gaining in popularity in the United States．This growth has happened so fast that science is still catching up with the change．Plastics pollution research，for instance，is still a very early science．We put all these plastics into the environment and we still don't really know what the outcomes are going to be．What we do know，though，is disturbing．Ocean plastic is estimated to kill millions of marine animals every year．Nearly 700species，including endangered ones，are known to have been affected by it．One in three leatherback turtles，which often mistake plastic bags for jellyfish，have been found with plastic in their bellies．Ninety percent of seabirds are now eating plastics on a regular basis．By 2050，that figure is expected to rise to 100percent．And it's not just wildlife that is threatened by the plastics in our seas．Humans are consuming plastics through the seafood we eat．I could understand why some people see ocean plastic as a disaster，worth mentioning to the same degree as climate change．But ocean plastic is not as complicated as climate change．There are no ocean trash deniers （否认者），at least so far．To do something about it，we don't have to remake our planet energy system．This is not a problem where we don't know what the solution is．We know how to pick up garbage．Anyone can do it．We know how to dispose （处理）of it．We know how to recycle．We can all start by thinking twice before we use single----use plastic products．Things that may seem ordinary，like using a reusable bottle or a reusable bag----when taken collectively，these choices really do make a difference．28.Why is plastics pollution research still a very early science？______A. The plastics pollution research is too difficult．B. Plastics have produced less pollution than coal．C. The world couldn't possibly function without plastics．D. Plastics have gained in popularity too fast for science to catch up．29.How did the author support his opinion in Paragraph 3？______A. By statistics．B. By quotations from leading experts．C. By using examples from his own experience．D. By comparison and contrast．30.What can we infer about climate change？______A. Climate change is caused by human activities．B. Some people hold some doubts about climate change．C. Climate change is less important than ocean pollution．D. Ocean plastic is more complicated than climate change．31.What is the main idea of this passage？______A. Ocean plastic is a global issue．B. The oceans become choked with plastic．C. Blue Planet II has left viewers heartbroken．D. Plastics gain in popularity all over the worldDThe word tolerance is widely used in liberal democracies （自由民主）．It indicates a positive meaning．Politicians urge us to be tolerant towards minorities．Educators teach us to be tolerant towards the other．The press is full of references to the need to display tolerance when faced with individuals or groups espousing a different view or holding a different religious belief．A tolerant society is an objective sought after by anyone who believes in the values of democracy．A tolerant individual is connected with virtuous qualities．The question we must ask is whether we have been using the word tolerance fully aware of its meaning and whether we have applied it correctly to reflect what we really wish to convey．The word tolerance means to bear，or to bear with．If I tolerate something or someone，I basically say that I am ready to bear it or him．I can tolerate a bad smell or a noisy neighbour．The act of toleration forces me to desist from conveying my objection to the existence of a phenomenon，which I find difficult to bear．A bad smell or a noisy neighbour is considered by me to be an objectionable phenomenon．By tolerating either of them，I am not transforming the bad smell or the noisy neighbour into positive phenomena．Let's be honest：I don't have a different taste when it comes to bad smells．I simply dislike it and hope that it disappears．I don't respect the noisy neighbour．I would rather have him stop at once the noise he is making so I can live in peace．The subject tolerating is by nature not equal to the object being tolerated．If I tolerate you，I essentially say that I am above you and am prepared，although unwillingly，to bear with your presence or with your practices or opinions．That may be true in the case of an individual who is ready to tolerate theother．However，this attitude by such an individual，though empirically true，is hardly a virtue．Certainly，the fact that an individual，in reality，may merely tolerate the other or his opinion does not justify a government or any official authority promoting tolerance as a virtue．One cannot tolerate an equal being．True equality involves respect，not toleration．To respect the other as a distinctive person is hardly to tolerate him．This is the true meaning of equality：diversity existing in amutually-respectful socio-legal setting．A tolerant attitude involves the grant of a favour，not a right．The question we should ask ourselves is whether we would ever wish a parliament to make laws considering us，as individuals and as part of a collective entity or a permission to pursue certain actions interpreted as a favour rather than a right？Indeed，would we ever wish anyone to listen to our views and accept us the way we are simply because he is kind enough to tolerate us？32.The first two paragraphs are mainly intended to show that ______ ．A. tolerance is a symbol of liberal democraciesB. democratic society always advocates toleranceC. people's understanding of tolerance is one-sidedD. tolerance can be applied to many situations33.The example of a bad smell and a noisy neighbour is raised to indicate that ______ ．A. the writer are fed up with themB. most people find them hard to tolerateC. the writer isn't prejudiced against themD. tolerating them isn't a virtuous act34.The main idea of Paragraph 4is that ______ ．A. tolerance shows an unequal relationshipB. most people promote tolerance as a virtueC. people should show respect for each otherD. tolerance has nothing to do with respect35.Which can be the best title for this passage？______A. Tolerance and RespectB. What Is to Be Tolerated？C. Is Tolerance a Virtue？D. Should People Be Tolerant？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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Then, flipping through a magazine, she saw a photo of an impoverished Haitian boy, skinny. “I thought, this kid has nothing,” Paige says.The image stayed with her, and she resolved to do something to help. “I decided I would use my talents to throw birthday parties for homeless kids,” Paige says. For the next four years, Paige and her husband, Colin, took time out from parenthood to visit shelters to determine how best to pull off the parties.Finally, in January 2012, Paige launched the Birthday Party Project, a nonprofit organization, and recruited friends and f amily to help decorate Dallas’s 75-occupant Family Gateway Shelter with balloons and streamers, celebrating the birthdays of 11 boys and girls, with 60 more homeless kids in attendance. “That first party was better than I could have ever imagined,” says Pa ige.Now Paige and her staff of three paid employees work with regional volunteers to plan monthly themed parties at 15 shelters across the country, some of which house abused or abandoned kids. Each child celebrating a birthday that month gets a $30 gift, a decorative place mat, and an individual cake or cupcake.One of Paige’s favorite parts of each party is when the kids make a wish and blow out the candles. “They rarely get a chance to dream big,” says Paige.Her daughter, Lizzie, now seven, often helps out at the parties. Paige says, “The one thing I’ve always wanted is for my kid to be generous.”24. What was it that made Paige want to help the homeless children?A. A flight from Dallas to Ohio.B. Her daughter’s birthday.C. The photo of a Haitian boy.D. Her talent for throwing parties.25. What does the underlined word “impoverished” mean?A. adorableB. poorC. talentedD. dead26. What can be learnt from the passage?A. A total of 75 full-time workers are employed by Paige at present.B. After unsuccessful attempts, Paige finally threw a wonderful party for the homeless kids.C. Kids can spend $30 to celebrate their birthday.D. Paige commits herself to the cause of helping the homeless kids.27. What kind of person do you think Paige is?A. Caring and sensitive.B. Competent and loyal.C. Kind and perseverant.D. Responsible and disciplined.CFinland is the happiest place on Earth, according to the 2018 World Happiness Report of 156 nations.The report, r eleased Wednesday by the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Solutions Network, ranks the countries of the world based on six different categories of well-being: income, freedom, trust, life expectancy, generosity and social support. This year’s report also pays special attention to the happiness of each country’s immigrants.The U.S. dropped four spots from 2017 and landed in 18th place, and last year’s winner, Norway, came in second place followed by Denmark, Iceland and Switzerland.“The top five cou ntries all have almost equally high values for the six factors found to support happiness, and four of these countries Denmark, Switzerland, Norway and now Finland have been in first place in the six World Happiness Report rankings since the first report i n 2012,”co-editor John Helliwell told CNN. “In a division with such excellent teams, changes in the top spot are to be expected.”Rounding out the top 10 happiest countries was Canada in sixth place, then New Zealand, Sweden and Australia. The order of the top 10 nations changed from the 2017 list but the countries did not, according to the report. They were also 10 of the 11 top spots in the immigrant happiness category(including Mexico 24th overall, but10th in immigration).“The most striking finding of the report is the remarkable consistency between the happiness of immigrants and the l ocally born,” Helliwell said in a statement. “Although immigrants come from countries with very different levels of happiness, their reported life evaluations resemble those of other residents in their new countries. Those who move to happier countries gain, while those who move to less happy countries lose.”Other major world powers placed in significantly low spots on the list. Germany came in 15th, the UK was 19th followed by Japan in 54th place, Russia in 59th and China in 86th.The report, based on surveys completed by citizen volunteers, came just under a week before World Happiness Day on March 20, when the UN declared to recognize “the relevance of happiness and we ll-being as universal goals and aspirations in the lives of human beings around the world and the importance of their recognition in public policy objectives”.28. The US ranked ______ in 2017.A. 14B. 10C. 18D. 2229. What is the most significant finding of the report?A. That immigrants are different from residents in the country.B. That immigrants come from countries with different levels of happiness.C. That immigrants become happy when they leave the country.D. That immigrants and locals feel the similar level of happiness.30. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Happiness is no less important than any other aspect in life.B. People’s happiness and well-being should be considered when it comes to policy-making.C. The happiness report came under a week before World Happiness Day.D. What the UN declared was beneficial to all human beings.31. What is the best title of the passage?A. World Happiness DayB. Happiness forever pursuitC. What’s your happiness ind ex(指数)?D. The 2018 World Happiness ReportDI have happy memories of trips to Europe, but my trip to Romania(罗马尼亚) was unique. When I was there as recalled, it was like being in a “Ja m es Bond” movie. My husband was born there, but his family sent him to study in Italy. Before he left, his mother told him, “As long as I write in pencil, don’t come back. When I write to you in pen, it’s safe to return.” But she never wrote in pen.My husband lived a poor life in Italy. He applied to go to America, but there was a limit in number and he was rejected. He was accepted by Canada, though, and from Calgary he jumped onto a train to San Francisco. There he stayed illegally. He became a US citizen when we got married. By then he was a charming European with a Romanian accent and the manners of a prince.With seven years’ experience in America, a US passport, and two children later, he felt it was safe to visit Romania. He hadn’t seen his mother, two sisters, and two brothers since he was sixteen. We flew to Munich, Germany; picked up the German-made car we had purchased in the States; and drove to Romania via Austria and Hungary. When we reached Bucharest, the capital city of Romania, his family was waiting outside his sister’s house to greet us. After a long time of hugging, kissing, and crying, his family also hugged me, the American wife with two young children. They had great interest in me. Few Americans visited Romania at that time, and most Romanians had little chance to travel. I had brought an English-Romanian dictionary with me and managed to communicate, using only nouns, with no verbs. My Romanian improved, and the family’s stock of English words increased, but mostly I spoke in broken, New York-accented Romanian. The sisters loved their gifts of skirts and purses, the brothers loved the radios, and the children loved the candy. We made side trips to the Black Sea and enjoyed sightseeing in beautiful mountains. Dining at outdoor cafes to the music of violins was fantastic with fancy flavor, but nothing was as special as family dinners.Romania didn’t have many dry cleaners. Most homes had old-fashioned washingmachines but no dryers, and it was a hot summer. My husband’s relatives didn’t want to risk dirtying their clothes. Their solution was as simple as it was shocking: the women only wore their bras(胸罩) and slips (衬裙) at dinner table. The men were eating without shirts. They all had jobs, so time was precious. Having dinner without proper clothes was a small inconvenience compared with the effort of washing clothes—at least in my husband’s home, perhaps a ll across Romania. I, of course, having just met them, ate fully clothed. I washed my clothes by hand and hung them outdoors to dry.On the last night of our three-week stay, we had a large family dinner. I was tired of washing my clothes. So I pulled my dress over my head and placed it on the chair behind me. All men and women applauded for my action. Even with my poor Romanian, I understood that they were saying, “She’s part of our family now.”My children were 4 and 5 at the time, but they still have memories of that trip. They know how to say “Good morning” and “There are apricots(杏子) on the tree”.I can still say, “Do you speak Romanian?”and “I swim in the Black Sea.” But most of all, I remember sitting at a long dining-room table in my bra, enjoying meatballs with fresh garlic .32. From Para. 1, we can infer that ________.A. the mother didn’t want to see her sonB. a trip to Europe would be dangerousC. the mother didn’t like to write in penD. Romania might be unsafe at that time33. Which of the following statements about the writer’s trip in Romania is true?A. The couple bought a new German-made car after they arrived in German.B. The writer had little interest in the relatives.C. The writer used a new language with effort.D. The family enjoyed swimming in the black sea best.34. What made the writer feel special about the family dinner in Romania?A. The way people dressed.B. The way people spoke.C. The fantastic violin music.D. The fancy food flavor.35. The writer shared her story to say ________.A. “one needs to sacrifice to find true love”B. “east and west, home is the best”C. “when in Rome do as the Romans do”D. “marry a dog and follow the dog forever”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。

This would mean that she always felt that she was protected and would always have money if she really needed it.When I was married in 1970 my husband who had heard this story, obtained a 1937 crown coin for me and I have always kept it in my wallet, and I have always had enough for my needs.A friend recently fell on hard times, partly through external (外部的）circumstances and partly through poor planning. Friends and I have loaned her money, paid her bills, given her food, and even tried to teach her budget techniques, but none of them has been a solution. She has just slipped deeper and deeper into financial trouble and depression.Last week she looked pale and unwell, very depressed and hopeless, very sad for a friend to see and I then thought about how the crown coin, a physical reminder of another’s care and love had protected me, so I went to the bank for a $ 100 dollar-bill.I told my friend the story and asked her to keep the $ 100 in the back of her wallet. It turned out that she didn’t havea wallet, so she put the money in a little pencil case where she kept her coins. She immediately felt better—“I feel rich, and thank you for being a good friend,” she said, and we were both a bit teary.I went home and remembered a little wallet I had that I’d never used, and thought, “I’ll give that to my friend.” I opened it, and inside, found $ 100.25. What di d the 1937 crown coin from the author’s father mean to her mother?A. His concern for her.B. His pity and protection for her.C. His care and love for her.D. His pride and respect for her.26. Where did the author’s friend keep the $ 100 dollar-bill?A. In the back of her wallet.B. In a little pencil case.C. In the pocket of her raincoat.D. In the layer of her suitcase.27. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. The author became rich all of a sudden.B. The author’s friend would receive a wa llet as a gift.C. The author’s friend was not touched by her story.D. The author felt uncomfortable when receiving the bill.28. What can be the best title for the text?A. A crown coinB. The help to a friendC. A hard lifeD. A gift from my fatherCIn China, chain restaurants — especially the big multinational ones — are cool. Going to Starbucks, for example, is a status symbol. It not only says, “I’m rich enough to buy this overpriced coffee,” but also, “I’m cosmopolitan （见多识广的）enough to be part of globalization.”Where I come from in the UK，however，chains are neither fashionable nor gourmet（美食的）. Chains are where you go on New Year’s Day when nowhere else is open，or when you are 5 years old and your parents can’t stand hearing “I’m huuungry!” any lon ger. In my own case (with regards to McDonald’s), a chain is where you are taken on your first “date”. Even at the age of 13, I knew to give the guy the “let’s just be friends” phone call the next day.In the UK, independent cafes and restaurants are making a comeback on the fashion scene. Nowadays, a Londoner who says “let’s meet for a coffee at Monmouth” (an independent café) is much cooler than one who says “let’s go to Starbucks”. Even if Monmouth’s coffee is a little more expensive, there’s a satisfaction in knowing your pounds aren’t going straight to the big corporations.Of course, there are chain stores all over the UK; you can’t go five minutes without spotting a Costa Coffee. But numbers do not add up to good taste.I do, however, have a confession (坦白). After moving to China I had moments when all the rice and Kung Pao Chicken became too much. I, too, have retreated to McDonald’s.29. Many Chinese people like to go to multinational chain restaurants because ______.A. the restaurants give customers a taste of foreign cultureB. the restaurants offer different food and drinks from other restaurantsC. they believe that eating there will show their wealth and social statusD. these restaurants are perfect places for a romantic date30. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The author has grown tired of Chinese food.B. Branches of Monmouth’s cafe can be found all over the UK.C. Most independent stores are closed on New Year’s Day in the UK.D. It is cool in the UK to take your first date to a chain restaurant.31. We can infer from the article that ______.A. the author doesn’t like food from Pizza HutB. the author doesn’t like to follow fashion trendsC. many Britons think that numbers mean poor qualityD. many Britons don’t like big co rporationsDDarwin noted that some human emotional expressions might have started as part of a physiological function: for example, exposing the teeth to bite food. The function, however, took on meaning and became a form of communication which signals anger.The same may be true for the animals. Baby monkeys cry for attention. They also cry to signal to an adult that they want to be carried.“Chimpanzees do make upset voice when they are being weaned (断奶) by their mothers or have lost their mothers or ano ther individual,” says Anne Pusey, a professor at the University of Minnesota. “They whimper (呜咽) and cry and scream. When we hear these calls, the emotion involved seems obvious. However, they do not weep in the sense of producing tears. I have seen an adolescent male whimpering when he lost sight of his older brother with whom he had been traveling.”Babies of many mammalian species, including rats, cry. Moreover, when a baby rat cries, often his mother brings the fallen pup back into the nest. This is probably a straightforward communication, as it is with humans. However, psychologists at the University of Iowa aren’t convinced.The Iowan researchers can cause the same crying sounds by producing large decreases and then increases in blood flow. The blood flow also goes down when baby rats get cold. Thus, they conclude baby rats cry in the same way that we sneeze. Of course the rat baby could be crying because he’s cold and wants his mother to know.“All young mammals make cries when separated from their mother,” says Jaak Panksepp, a psychologist at Bowling Green State University. “If you’re willing to call this crying, then certainly other animals show this emotional response.” he says, “Some of us take seriously that animals do have emotions.”32. Accord ing to the first paragraph, what kind of emotion does “exposing the teeth” express?A. Disappointment.B. Excitement.C. Anger.D. Happiness.33. Which is one probable reason why young chimpanzees might be crying?A. They meet their brother.B. They have nothing to eat.C. They are being breast-fed.D. They are parted from their mother.34. Under what circumstance will baby rats cry just like humans’ sneeze?A. Their blood flow is decreased.B. They feel cold and long for affection.C. Their blood flow is increased.D. Their mother brings them back home.35. Where is the passage most likely taken from?A. An animal journal.B. A physiology book.C. A health magazine.D. A cultural newspaper.第二节七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）Apologizing can be very difficult. It takes maturity to put aside your pride and own up to your faults. 36. , it’s easy to make mistakes.37. .

In the long run, not being genuine just creates more distrust instead of repairing the damage.Waiting too long to apologize can make a bad situation worse. Do it sooner rather than later. However, apologizing too quickly can also be problematic. Sometimes people need a minute to cool off, and if someone’s t rying to hound(催促) them to give them an apology, it’s not going to work. If time has passed, you can still attempt to right a wrong.39. .Saying “I’m sorry, but…”is one of the worst ways to say you’re sorry.

But the 41 would no doubt be greater if you were living on the streets with little food and money. All of this makes the actions of the homeless Tom Smith 42 more remarkable.After spotting a 43 on the front seat inside a parked car with its window down, he stood guard in the rain for about two hours waiting for the 44 to return.After hours in the cold and wet, he 45 inside and pulled the wallet out hoping to find some ID so he could contact（联系）the driver, only to 46 it contained £400 in notes, with another £50 in spare change beside it.He then took the wallet to a nearby police station after 47 a note behind to let the owner know it was safe. When the car’s owner John Anderson a nd his colleague Carol Lawrence returned to the car — which was itself worth £35, 000 — in Glasgow city centre, they were 48 to find two policemen standing next to it. The policemen told them what Mr. Smith did and that the wallet was 49 .The pair were later able to thank Mr. Smith for his 50 .Mr. Anderson said: “I couldn’t believe that the guy never took a penny. To think he is sleeping on the streets tonight 51 he could have stolen the money and paid for a place to stay in. This guy has nothing and 52 he didn’t take the wallet for himself; he thought about others 53 . It’s unbelievable. It just proves there are 54 guys out there.”Mr. Smith’s act 55 much of the public’s attention. He also won praise from social media users after Mr. Anderson 56 about the act of kindness on Facebook.Now Mr. Anderson has set up an online campaign to 57 money for Mr. Smith and other homeless people in the area, which by yesterday had received £8,000. “I think the faith that everyone has shown ____58_ him has touched him.

英语 2019年高三第三次模拟试题
2000年考研政治真题试题及答案解析(文科)一．下列每题的选项中，有一项是最符合题意的。
（每小题1分，共16分）1．人的意识不仅反映客观世界，并且创造客观世界，这一命题表明意识对物质具有A．决定性B．预见性C．能动性D．主动性【答案】C【分析】本题考点：意识的能动性。
题干中引用的是列宁的一句话。
它的意思是意识的能动性不仅在于人们在实践中正确地把握住客观对象，形成思想、理论，更重要的还在于以这些正确的思想和理论为指导，通过实践把观念的东西变成现实。
据此分析，选项C正确。
选项A属于唯心主义观点；B项是由意识反映的主客体关系内容而形成的功能之一；D项则是人对物质世界把握的能动性的具体表现，均不符合题意。
2．相信“意念移物”，甚至相信可以用意念来直接改变物质结构，就是信奉A．主张精神主宰客观物质世界的主观唯心论B．主张精神是脱离人脑独立存在的客观唯心论C．认为人的思想是特殊物质的机械唯物主义D．认为人具有主观能动性的实践唯物主义【答案】A【分析】本题考点：唯物主义和唯心主义的对立；唯心主义在意识能动性上的错误观点。
辩证唯物主义指出，运动是物质固有的根本属性，是物质的存在方式。
物体移动是一种机械运动，物质结构变化是一种物理运动，都是物质运动的具体形式。
唯心主义否认物质的客观存在，也就必然离开物质去看待运动，设想没有物质的运动，把运动都看成是精神的运动。
所谓人的主观意识、意念可以“移物”、“直接改变物质结构”，从认识根源上来说，都是主张精神决定物质的主观唯心主义。
因此选项A正确。
题干中的观点属于夸大意识作用的唯心论，因此C、D两项错误；同时“意念”属于个人的感觉或意识，是主观的东西，因而B项也是错误的。
3．大众心理影响经济走势，能正确解释这一现象的观点是A．社会意识对社会存在具有决定作用B．社会心理可以左右社会发展发向C．只有正确的社会意识才能影响社会发展D．社会意识反作用于社会存在【答案】D【分析】本题考点：社会意识的相对独立性。

work，vision and creativity of the nation's beloved festival industry．Throughout the day of the event，the Conference invites numerous industry insiders（行家）to discuss the issues most relative to the sector，reviewing its immediate past and portending to the future．The evening's Awards present a wide range of honors across categories that are decided via a combination of public voting and professional judgments．Since launching in 2004 it has evolved into a major event at The Roundhouse in London，giving the industry a chance to collectively celebrate and fondly reflect upon the achievements of the past year．With a gourmet dinner，gala awards ceremony and after﹣show party，it attracts over 1，000 of the most influential people in the business．Along with its sister events，the UK Festival Conference and the European Festival Awards，The UK Festival Awards & Conference is owned and produced by Festival Awards Ltd，an independent company founded in the UK．Awards include Best Major，Medium﹣Sized and Small Festival，Best Family Festival，Best Overseas Festival，Best Use of New Technology，and of course ﹣Best Toilets．As the festival season is approaching，we thought it'd be a good time to release our free UK Festival Market Report for 2015 / 2016．We gathered the data in our annual census（人口普查）undertaken in the preparation stage for last year's UK Festival Awards．The latest UK Festival Market Report can be downloaded below．Included in the Report is a bunch of related information about festivalgoers：where they're from，how they like to purchase music，what they eat，their attitudes towards ticket prices，how receptive they are to different forms of advertising，why they go to festivals in the first place，where they sleep，and much more．We hope you find the information useful．（1）Which phrase is the closest in meaning to the underlined word "portending" in paragraph 2？A．getting downB．adding upC．giving wayD．looking forward（2）What can be inferred from the passage？A．An annual census is conducted and released in the FestivalB．The Festival Awards Ltd，is responsible for not less than three events．C．The gala awards ceremony attracts only 1.000 influential businessmen．D．Public voting plays a leading role in deciding a variety of festival honors．（3）Where most probably will you see this passage？A．In a magazine．B．In a newspaper．C．On a website．D．In a TV program．12．（8分）Like any good mother，when Karen found out that another baby was on the way，she did what she could to help her 3﹣year﹣old son，Michael，prepare for a new baby．Day after day，night after night，Michael sang to his mommy's tummy（肚子）．Finally，Michael's little sister was born．But she was in a very serious condition．With sirens（警报器）howling in the night，the ambulance rushed the baby to St．Mary's Hospital．The days inched by．The little girl became worse．The pediatric（儿科的）specialists told the parents to prepare for the worst．Michael kept begging for singing to his sister，but kids are not allowed in the pediatric department at St．Mary's Hospital．Karen made up her mind to take Michael to see his sister．She dressed him in an oversized suit and marched him into the hospital．He looked like a walking laundry basket，but the head nurse recognized him as a child and shouted，"Get that kid out of here now!" Karen rose up strong，and the usually mild﹣mannered lady glared steel﹣eyed into the head nurse's face．" He is not leaving until he sings to his sister!"Karen towed Michael to his sister's bedside．He gazed at the tiny baby losing the battle tolive．And he began to sing．In the pure﹣hearted voice of a 3﹣year﹣old，Michael sang，"You are my sunshine，my only sunshine．You make me happy when skies are grey．" Instantly the baby girl responded．Her pulse rate became calm and steady．Her strained breathing became smoother．"Keep on singing，Michael，" encouraged Karen with tears in her eyes．"The other night，dear，as I lay sleeping，I dreamed I held you in my arms．" Michael's little sister relaxed as healing rest seemed to sweep over her．"Keep on singing，Michael．" Tears conquered the face of the nurse．"You are my sunshine，my only sunshine．Please don't take my sunshine away…"The next day﹣the very next day﹣the little girl was well enough to go home!（1）Which of the following can be the best title for the passage？A．It's Hard to Raise a BabyB．Mothers LoveC．The Miracle of a Brother's SongD．An Unforgettable Day（2）From Karen's action in the first paragraph we know that．A．mothers often pay

tell their children how to look after their younger brothers or sisters（3）The underlined word "strained" means ""．A．unnaturalB．excitingC．deepD．normal（4）Which words can describe Michael？A．Naughty and annoying．B．Strong and brave．C．Active and careless．D．Concerned and determined．13．（8分）Competition in the workplace can be a good thing for a number of different reasons．On the other hand，competition can also have some disadvantages，though．Some industries tend to be more competitive in the workplace than others．For instance，those in the sales field will typically be more competitive with co﹣workers than individuals in other fields，such as information technology．Nevertheless，a little competition in even the least competitive industries can be positive．Competition in the workplace can create an environment where employees push each other to exceed their normal limits，which can result in increased production，both at an individual level and among the entire workforce as a whole．As individual production numbers increase，so do those of the entire team of workers who seek to outdo one another．Competition can be rewarded with bonuses or various types of rewards．Workplace competition can also inspire a commitment to self﹣improvement．While financial motivations and bonuses are always a plus to get the competition going，those who see the bigger picture may take the competition as an opportunity to better themselves in the process of winning the competition．Self﹣improvement may include actions like changing work habits to be more organized，using visualization and goal setting to achieve goals and simply performing higher quality work．Not all competition in the workplace necessarily has to take place at the individual level．Competition can bring about a sense of teamwork in the workplace when workers are placed in groups and asked to compete with one another，which can have a number of positive results that come from workers cooperating with each other．For example，workers can learn the value of communication and helping someone else，both of which have an influence on other areas of work like customer service．（1）What does the underlined word "exceed" in Paragraph 2 mean？A．LifeB．CancelC．Break throughD．Set up（2）Which industry is likely to involve more workplace competition？A．The sales fieldB．Film ProductionC．Customer serviceD．Information technology（3）How can competition contribute to employees' self﹣improvement？A．It changes their lifestyles greatlyB．It assists them to achieve a higher goalC．It improves their financial managementD．It offers them chances to change for the better（4）What is the best title for the text？A．Benefits of Workplace CompetitionB．Reasons for Joining in CompetitionsC．Approaches to Winning CompetitionD．Strengths and Weaknesses of Competition14．（8分）The health of millions could be at risk because supplies of medicinal plants are being used up．These plants are used to make traditional medicine，including drugs to fight cancer．"The loss of medicinal plants is a quiet disaster，" says Sara Oldfield，secretary general of the NGO Botanic Gardens Conservation International．Most people worldwide rely on herbal （药草制的）medicines which are got mostly from wild plants．But some 15，000 of the 50，000 medicinal species are under threat of dying out，according to report from the international conservation group Plantlife．Shortages have been reported in China，India，Kenya，Nepal，Tanzania and Uganda．Over﹣harvesting does the most harm，though pollution and competition from invasive species （入侵物种）and habitat destruction all contribute．Businessmen generally harvest medicinal plants，not caring about sustainability （可持续性），" the Plantlife report says，"damage is serious partly because they have no idea about it，but it is mainly because such collection is unorganized"．Medicinal trees at risk include the Himalayan yew （紫衫）and the African cherry，which are used to treat some cancers．The solution，says the report's author，Alan Hamilton，is to encourage local people toprotect these plants．Ten projects studied by Plantlife in India，Pakistan，China，Nepal，Uganda and Kenya showed this method can succeed．In Uganda，the project has kept a sustainable supply of low﹣cost cancer treatments，and in China a public﹣run medicinal plant project has been created for the first time．""Improving health，earning an income and keeping cultural traditions are important in encouraging people to protect medicinal plants，" says Hamilton，"You have to pay attention to what people are interested in．"Ghillean Prance，the former director of the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew in London，agrees that medicinal plants are in need of protection．"Not nearly enough is being done，" he told New Scientist．"We are destroying the very plants that are of most use to us．"（1）From the first two paragraphs，we can learn that．A．millions of people are threatened with cancerB．most countries see a shortage of herbal medicinesC．about two thirds of medicinal species will disappearD．a number of medicinal species are in danger of extinction（2）The major factor that causes the decreasing of supplies of medicinal plants is．A．over﹣harvestingB．habitat destructionC．pollutionD．invasive species（3）The underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 refers to．A．pollutionB．other species' invasionC．sustainabilityD．over﹣harvesting（4）What can be inferred from the passage？A．Protecting medicinal plants has a long way to go．B．Local people don't know how to protect medicinal plants．C．Ghillean Prance is optimistic about medicinal plants' future．D．China has made great progress in protecting medicinal plants．第二节（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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．选项中有两项为多余选项．15．（10分）In all our lives we must make choices．You make choices from the time you get out of bed in the morning until you go to sleep at night．What time to get up？What to wear？What to eat？You also make more significant choices when you graduate from high school．（1）．College？Technical training？No matter the size of the decision，the common thread in all of them is that they involve an opportunity cost．Opportunity cost is your next best alternative﹣your second choice．For example，it's a Saturday night，and you are trying to decide among going to the movies，hanging out at a friend s house or going to the football game．（2）．What is your second choice？If it is the football game，then that is your opportunity cost．Opportunity cost is important．When you make a certain choice，it forces you to think more critically about ail of the abandoned choices．By recognizing opportunity cost，you can decide whether your decision is worth it．（3）．As a high school senior，you face several options，including going to college，going to technical school，or going to the work force．If you choose college，the opportunity cost is losing what could have been purchased or saved with the money spent on tuition（学费），housing，books，etc．for four years．（4）．You would also lose four years' worth of income and experience that you could have earned if you had gone straight to work．However，it is still the case that college graduates earn more than high school graduates．And the unemployment rate among college graduates is less than that of high school graduates．（5）．But，like all decisions，it is one that should be arrived at only after looking at the costs﹣including the opportunity cost一and considering the follow﹣up question：is it worth it？A．Will you go straight to work？B．What causes opportunity cost？C．But that's not the end of the costs．D．Suppose you decide to go to the movies．E．If you give up college，what do you lose？F．A perfect example is the decision to go to college．G．For many students，going on to college is a wise decision．第三部分英语知识运用（共两节）第一节完形填空（每小题1.5分，满分30分）16．（30分）"How dare you!"

Rather than planning for the future, she focused only on how her money could make ends meet for that moment.Recently, Durant has teamed up with Laurene Powell Jobs for a new philanthropic program called College Track which is aimed at helping disadvantaged kids attend college. As part of the program, Durant has committed to donating $10 million to his hometown’s public scho ol system.Durant’s mom says that in addition to his financial decisions, she is proud of his philanthropic work and his desire to help the community. “I thought giving back was always very important, and so we talked about that and he had seen that from u s as a family and it’s one of the things that I taught him,” she says.21.What is The Real MVP: The Wanda Durant Story mainly about?A.

Business.B. SportsC. TourismD. HealthCBlue Planet II's latest episode focuses on how plastic is having a disastrous effect on the ocean and slowly poisoning our sea creatures． Researchers recently also found that sea creatures living in the deepest place on Earth， the Mariana Trench， have plastic in their stomachs． Indeed， the oceans are drowning in plastic．Though it seems now that the world couldn't possibly function without plastics，consumerplastics are a remarkably recent invention． The first plastic bags were introduced in the 1950s； the same decade that plastic packaging began gaining inpopularity in the United States． This growth has happened so fast that science is still catching up with the change． Plastics pollution research， for instance，is still a very early science．We put all these plastics into the environment and we still don't really know what the outcomes are going to be． What we do know， though， is disturbing． Ocean plastic is estimated to kill millions of marine animals every year． Nearly700species， including endangered ones， are known to have been affected by it． One in three leatherback turtles， which often mistake plastic bags for jellyfish， have been found with plastic in their bellies． Ninety percent of seabirds are now eating plastics on a regular basis． By 2050， that figure is expected to rise to 100percent．And it's not just wildlife that is threatened by the plastics in our seas． Humans are consuming plastics through the seafood we eat． I could understand why some people see ocean plastic as a disaster， worth mentioning to the same degree as climate change． But ocean plastic is not as complicated as climate change． There are no ocean trash deniers （否认者）， at least so far． To do something about it， we don't have to remake our planet energy system．This is not a problem where we don't know what the solution is． We know how to pick up garbage． Anyone can do it． We know how to dispose （处理） of it． We know how to recycle． We can all start by thinking twice before we use single----use plastic products． Things that may seem ordinary， like using a reusable bottle or a reusable bag----when taken collectively， these choices really do make a difference．28.Why is plastics pollution research still a very early science？ ______A. The plastics pollution research is too difficult．B. Plastics have produced less pollution than coal．C. The world couldn't possibly function without plastics．D. Plastics have gained in popularity too fast for science to catch up．29.How did the author support his opinion in Paragraph 3？ ______A. By statistics．B. By quotations from leading experts．C. By using examples from his own experience．D. By comparison and contrast．30.What can we infer about climate change？ ______A. Climate change is caused by human activities．B. Some people hold some doubts about climate change．C. Climate change is less important than ocean pollution．D. Ocean plastic is more complicated than climate change．31.What is the main idea of this passage？ ______A. Ocean plastic is a global issue．B. The oceans become choked with plastic．C. Blue Planet II has left viewers heartbroken．D. Plastics gain in popularity all over the worldDThe word tolerance is widely used in liberal democracies （自由民主）． It indicates a positive meaning． Politicians urge us to be tolerant towards minorities． Educators teach us to be tolerant towards the other． The press is full of references to the need to display tolerance when faced with individuals or groups espousing a different view or holding a different religious belief． A tolerant society is an objective sought after by anyone who believes in the values of democracy． A tolerant individual is connected with virtuous qualities．The question we must ask is whether we have been using the word tolerance fully aware of its meaning and whether we have applied it correctly to reflect what we really wish to convey．The word tolerance means to bear， or to bear with． If I tolerate something or someone， I basically say that I am ready to bear it or him． I can tolerate a bad smell or a noisy neighbour． The act of toleration forces me to desist from conveying my objection to the existence of a phenomenon， which I find difficult to bear． A bad smell or a noisy neighbour is considered by me to be an objectionable phenomenon． By tolerating either of them， I am not transforming the bad smell or the noisy neighbour into positive phenomena． Let's be honest： I don't have adifferent taste when it comes to bad smells． I simply dislike it and hope that it disappears． I don't respect the noisy neighbour． I would rather have him stop at once the noise he is making so I can live in peace．The subject tolerating is by nature not equal to the object being tolerated． If I tolerate you， I essentially say that I am above you and am prepared， although unwillingly， to bear with your presence or with your practices or opinions． That may be true in the case of an individual who is ready to tolerate the other． However，this attitude by such an individual， though empirically true， is hardly a virtue． Certainly， the fact that an individual， in reality， may merely tolerate the other or his opinion does not justify a government or any official authority promoting tolerance as a virtue． One cannot tolerate an equal being． True equality involves respect， not toleration． To respect the other as a distinctive person is hardly to tolerate him． This is the true meaning of equality： diversity existing in a mutually-respectful socio-legal setting．A tolerant attitude involves the grant of a favour， not a right． The question we should ask ourselves is whether we would ever wish a parliament to make laws considering us， as individuals and as part of a collective entity or a permission to pursue certain actions interpreted as a favour rather than a right？ Indeed，would we ever wish anyone to listen to our views and accept us the way we are simply because he is kind enough to tolerate us？32.The first two paragraphs are mainly intended to show that ______ ．A. tolerance is a symbol of liberal democraciesB. democratic society always advocates toleranceC. people's understanding of tolerance is one-sidedD. tolerance can be applied to many situations33.The example of a bad smell and a noisy neighbour is raised to indicate that ______ ．A. the writer are fed up with themB. most people find them hard to tolerateC. the writer isn't prejudiced against themD. tolerating them isn't a virtuous act34.The main idea of Paragraph 4is that ______ ．A. tolerance shows an unequal relationshipB. most people promote tolerance as a virtueC. people should show respect for each otherD. tolerance has nothing to do with respect35.Which can be the best title for this passage？ ______A.
