2020年浙江省杭州市高考英语二模试卷第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分25.0分）第一节（共10个小题；每小题2.5分，满分25.0分）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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．1. True heroes are all around us．Some help others, and others are simply good role model．My hero is my brother﹣Thomas．When Thomas and I were little, we used to go to the playground a lot． Kids would be scared of him and ask, "Is your arm broken? "Thomas would respond by explaining what happened, he was born without the left arm． If they ran away, he wouldn't let it bother him．Thomas is expert at both cross﹣country（越野跑）and track． He is a 4: 46 miler, which with the setback he has makes it an even greater accomplishment． Missing an arm affects his balance, which affects his leg drive．The work he has put in, however, has made up for this．He practices so hard that anything short of success would seem a disappointment． Thomas used to play baseball like it was a religion．His idol was Jim Abbott, a pitcher（投球手）for the California Angels．Abbott was a very good pitcher who only had one arm．"I looked up to Abbott because I saw what I could achieve．" Thomas said．Thomas had a lot of trouble giving up baseball for track because he felt like he was taking the easy wayout, though he liked track more．One of Thomas' best friends, Brad didn't even notice Thomas only had one arm for a few weeks after meeting him．He carried himself so confidently．So I felt okay admitting that I hadn't noticed, said Brad．Not only is Thomas a confident person who is not ashamed of his arm, he is often the center of attention in sports and school．Thomas seems to have accepted his disability．I see it as more of a difficulty, and difficulties can be overcome．Sometimes, if you try hard enough, you can overcome impossible things．As the great distance runner Steve Prefontaine said, "________（1）Which of the following words best describe Thomas？________A Courageous and modest．B Determined and religious．C Confident and strong ﹣willed．D Energetic and changeable．．（2）Why did Thomas give up baseball for track？________A Because he had a preference for track．B Because his idol encouraged him to change．C Because he thought track was easier for him．D Because he couldn't play baseball with single arm．．（3）The underlined sentence in the last paragraph is intended to remind us________．A giving is receivingB nothing is impossibleC hard work leaves noregrets D difficulties are gifts from God．2. We've all been there, running for a bus or train on a cold morning only to find that our nose is also running! Grab some tissues and learn the science behind the phenomenon known as "skier's nose．"A nose like a running tap in winter is business as usual for many people．People call it"skier's nose"．In a study, researchers found that 96 percent of people surveyed reported experiencing some degree of the condition．Apparently, getting a runny nose in cold weather is a bodily defense reaction．That's because the nose has two main purposes: 1）to ________ bacteria so they don't reach our lungs, and 2）to warm and humidify（加湿）the air before it reaches our lungs． Our airways are lined with tiny hairs known as ciliA．In the nose, these cilia wave back and forth to remove our mucus（黏液）so that bacteria can be blocked out．In cold weather the cilia are slowed．When cilia slow, bacteria remain in place and multiply, and this is why people get sick in winter．Not that the nose isn't trying to keep you healthy．All that running nose experience is the nose working overtime to produce more liquid to help move bacteria along．To help it out, experts say that you can try physically warming your nose: Rub your hands together, and then breathe into cupped hands or draw in steam from hot green tea and drink it, as green tea helps accelerate the growth and functioning of cilia．Our nose runs in winter for one more purpose, which is to fight against the drier outside （and inside）air．In winter, or when it's cold outside, the air is much drier than in summer．Our noses respond by producing more liquid to help humidify the air to a level our bodies need, and that's when it starts to run out of the end of our nose．（1）What does the underlined word "filter" probably mean in the third paragraph？________A Kill．B Prevent．C Defend．D Trap．．（2）What can we know about "cilia"？________A They only exist in the nose．B They stop working in winter．C They can sweep away mucus．D They help break down bacteria．．（3）Which of the following is the best title for the text？________A When Do You Have A Running Nose？B What Are the Purposes of Yournose？ C How Can You Deal With D Why Does Your Nose Run When It's Cold？．3. If you grew up in a household that had its fair hare of book shelves, it might say something positive about your personality now that you're all grown up．This new study found that people who grew up in book﹣filled homes have higher reading, math, and technological skills．The researchers analyzed data featuring 160, 000 adults （ages 25 to 6）across 31 nations．All participants were asked how many books there were in their home when they were 16 years old．They chose from a series of alternatives ranging from "10 or less" to "more than 500．"If a household held at least 80 books．then participants went, on to display the average rate of literacy and numeracy（认字和计算）, The rate of literacy continued to increase in parallel to the number of books a household contained until the rate didn't increase from 350 books onwards．Furthermore, young teenagers who grew up around books were shown to have the same levels of literacy and numeracy as university graduates who had only grown up around a few books．Literacy was clarified as "the ability to read effectively to participate in society and achieve personal goals．" Participants took tests that "captured a range of basic through advancedcomprehension skills, from reading brief texts for a single piece of information to synthesizing（合成）information from complex texts．" Numeracy tests measured the "ability to use mathematical concepts in everyday life, " while IT﹣related tests "assessed the ability to use digital technology to communicate with others, as well as togather, analyze, and synthesize information, "The results suggest those books made a long﹣term difference, "Growing up with home libraries improves adult skills in these areas beyond the benefits from parental education, or one's own educational or occupational attainment, " the researchers report．Not surprisingly, the biggest effect was on reading ability．"The total effects of home library size on literacy are large everywhere, " the researchers report．（1）What can we learn from the new study？________A Homes filled with books do much benefit to one's growth．B One's literacy and numeracy are finally shaped at the age of 16．C All participants need to have ten lo more than 500 books at home．D Those reading a lot are more competent than university graduates．．（2）What is paragraph 4 mainly about？________A The benefit of literacy，numeracy and IT ability．B The measurement of literacy，numeracy and IT ability．C The relation between literacy，numeracy and IT ability．D The difference between literacy，numeracy and IT ability．．（3）According to the text，books influence one's________．A parental educationB occupational attainmentC calculating abilityD reading ability．（4）What is the writer's purpose in writing the text？________A To describe the importance of receiving good education．B To clarify the effect of home library size on one's adult skills．C To explain the necessity of acquiring literacy and numeracy．D To introduce methods of improving one's literacy and numeracy．第二节（共1小题；每小题10分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项．选项中有两项为多余选项．4. Humans were made for walking．With our upright，posture and strong leg muscles，our bodies were actually designed with walking in mind，which makes it such perfect exercise．It's kind to our bodies and great for our waistlines．（1）_______Maybe you already love to walk，but you're getting tired of tracing the same old route day after day，or maybe you're new to walking and aren't sure how to get started．（2）_______Ask yourself， what do you want to get out of walking aside from the health benefits？Do you want to meet other people？See new places？Get out into the countryside or explore a new city？Knowing your goals will help you decide on the type of walk you want to do．I making friends and socializing is your goal，call up your friends and schedule walks with them．（3）_______ Many malls have groups that come every day，or every weekend，to"walk the mall．" These groups are always happy to include one more walker!（4）_______Many large cities have incredible gardens and parks that include quiet walking trail． getting you off the beaten path．Thanks．to the Rails to Trails program，railways across the country are being transformed into scenic walking paths that are a perfect way to seek calmness．From the benefits to your heart to your overall happiness，walking is just plain good for you．（5）_______ It's a fantastic way to get to know a place by the power of your own two feet．A．Headed to a new city？B．This month，pick up a map and start walking．C．Ask your friends where they like to walk and just go there．D．Either way，it's time to accept the idea of walking with a purpose．E．And best of all，it's a great way to see new things and meet new people! F．Recently，science has proved that walking is good for your body shape．G．If you're after walking alone，ask about local hikes that get you out of town and into the countryside．第三部分：语言运用（共两节，满分30分）完形填空（共20个小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．5.

2020年浙江省某校高考英语仿真模拟试卷第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分22.5分）第一节（共10个小题；每小题2.5分，满分22.5分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项．1. Jules is now in his sixties, and is one of the many homeless people who live on the streets; he buys a newspaper most days． Today, with his fellow tramps, he reads about yesterday's student demonstrations．Like many of the tramps who live under the bridges, Jules was not always so poor． A long time ago he was in the Navy, and like many who have been to sea for a long time, he has stayed slim and fit． Despite the strict organization on board ship, he loved his life, and had the opportunity to see many countries． He visited Poland and Russia; in South Africa he realized what he valued in each country was the people he met． He was always astonished and delighted by the ways in which the people he met differed from one country to another． Some day, he hopes, everyone will see the world as he does．After many happy years in the Navy, he had to retire． The good things in life always come to an end． His mother and father had long since died and he'd lost touch with his other relatives． He became an industrial designer． He was happy, although it wasn't the sameas the sea． He never wanted to get married and have children．And then there was the period of darkness． He smiles sadly． He shrugs his shoulders and looks at his hands． There are tears in the corners of his eyes． This is something thathe cannot bring himself to talk about． "It all went wrong, " he whispers．He was silent for a while, then recovered． He began to talk more loudly．"Look at me now﹣﹣it makes me angry． And what about the President? He's been in power for years, and look what he's done for us． Nothing! I am still out on the streets and live the lifeof a dog．"（1）What can we learn about Jules' life in the Navy？________A He only visited three countries．B He enjoyed the life on board ship．C He was very well paid for the job he did．D He liked meeting people from different countries．．（2）Why did Jules change his job according to the passage？________A He wanted to start a family．B He wanted to be near his relatives．C He didn't enjoy the work any more．D He was too old to stay in the Navy．．（3）What is Jules's opinion of the President？________A The President should increase pensions for old people．B The President had nothad enough time to change things． C The President should have done more to help people like him． D The President should not allow homeless people to stay on the streets．2. If you cut in line, you might just be a bad person． The queue is a regulation where the reward （the ice﹣cream stand/dining room/ticket booth） is earned through patience． Your choice to avoid this time﹣honored process will be bound to draw the anger of those you pass by, drawing remarks like "Whoa there, Chief, " the passive﹣aggressive "There's a line, you know!" and of course, the incredibly common "Hey, Copernicus, whydon't you guide yourself to the back of the line? "But, in the moment in which you really cannot wait, for example, the entire royal family has prepared a dinner party upon you last minute, then there is a way to cut the line correctly．There are a few different ways to consider and a few different methods to employ． The regularity of the situation is very important． If you're waiting to use the photocopier at work, you might be more likely to manage a successful cut than if you were waiting for a lifeboat on the Titanic． Sure, that might be an extreme example． But the importance of the event does matter．For those requests in normal situations, emphasizing either the urgency of your task or the simplicity of your task proved to be effective: experimenters who said "Excuse me, I have five pages． May I use the photocopier? " had a cut rate of 60 percent and experimenters who said "May I use the photocopier because I need to make copies? " saw a success rate of 90 per cent when queuing for the copy machine．If you have a couple of extra dollars lying around, bribing members of the line also proved to be effective． And most of the time, the person being bribed didn't end up accepting the money, because even the offer showed that the briber had a sense of desperation．（1）Why does the author use the remarks about Chief and Copernicus in paragraph 1？________A To illustrate the reaction from members in line．B To encourage those who want to cut in line．C To praise the behavior of cutting in line．D To provide advice which helps cut in line．．（2）Which of the following is not a wise way to cut in line？________A Giving the members in line money．B Stating the emergency of theevent． C Considering the regularity of the situation． D Defending the right of cutting in line．．（3）What is the best title for the text？________A Be Patient When Queuing．B Acceptable Ways to Cut in Line．C Time and Tides Waits for No Man．D Special Rights under Emergency．3. Summer is here, and with it comes a chance you'll get too much sun． While there's no cure for sunburn, a small but fascinating new study suggests taking large amounts of vitamin D after exposure may prevent the associated redness and inflammation （发炎）． In the paper, researchers exposed 20 volunteers to a light resembling solar radiation to induce a sunburn on a small piece of skin． They then gave the "burn victims" large amounts of vitamin D, and followed up with participants one, two and three days （and a week）later to measure skin redness and thickness． The researchers found that vitamin D decreased inflammation and redness, compared with taking a placebo（安慰剂）． And this effect increased in proportion to how much was consumed． Vitamin D also appears to increase the activity of a gene called arginase﹣1, which is involved in tissue repair and healing． Taking 50, 000 international units （IU） of vitamin D﹣﹣125 times the recommended daily allowance﹣led to a significant reduction in redness andinflammation, compared with the placebo． Those who took 100, 000 IU had even less redness and pain; and those who took 200, 000 IU had the greatest reduction in inflammation．This is the first study to show vitamin D can reduce inflammation, and suggests that it "could potentially help prevent sunburn, " says senior author Kurt Lu, a physician scientist and assistant professor at Case Western Reserve University．It used to be thought vitamin D was primarily involved in building healthy bones and muscles, but recent research has found it has many more roles, including influencing inflammation, such as the kind associated with sunburns．So, if you get burned, should you take a lot of vitamin D? The study authors don't recommend it． "I think that's probably not a good idea and not well established by this study, " says Barbara Gilchrest, a physician scientist at Massachusetts General Hospital． Such large amounts, if taken repeatedly, have the potential to cause vitamin D toxicity（毒性）．（1）What does this passage mainly talk about？________A An unusual method for relieving sunburn．B Tips for how to travel safely in summer．C A suggestion on taking vitaminD properly． D Advice on how to take medicine effectively．．（2）How do the researchers confirm the healing effect of taking vitamin D？________A By observing the inflammation of skin every day．B By measuring the thickness of skin after a week．C By increasing the daily volume of vitaminD By comparing the effect with that of placebo．．（3）Figures are used in paragraph 2 in order to________．A recommend the daily intakeB argue against the benefits of more VitaminD C show the more Vitamin D， the greater benefits D（4）What can be inferred about the function of vitamin D？________A Repeatedly taking large amounts of Vitamin D is beneficial．B Vitamin D may bring more advantages to us than what has been found out．C Don't take vitaminD unless your doctor approves you to do it． D Vitamin D is more useful for curing sunburn than building healthy bones．第二节（共1小题；每小题10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的最佳选项．选项中有两项为多余选项．4. It is amusing that yogurt， which was invented to make milk last longer before the days of refrigeration， now makes grocery shopping last longer． Full﹣fat， or nonfat？ Greek，or regular？（1）_______A key recommendation when it comes to fat is to choose low﹣fat or fat﹣freeyogurt． That's because dairy fat is mostly saturated （饱和的）， the type linked with increased risk of heart disease． Besides， full﹣fat dairy has more calories than nonfat．This view， however， has been challenged by a few recent studies． Researchers think that full﹣fat dairy might offer some as﹣yet﹣unknown health benefits． It might also help with weight management because the fat in it makes it more satisfying， helping keep our appetite in check．（2）_______ Until there are further findings， it might be wiser to choose low﹣fat or fat﹣free yogurt and add healthy fat by topping it with nuts．（3）_______ Many of them also have a hard time deciding whether to buy Greek yogurt or regular yogurt． Greek yogurt， which was rare about a decade ago， dominates the store shelves with dozens of flavors today． It has become popular partly because it features a thick， creamy texture （口感） and contains more protein and less sugar than regular yogurt．Greek yogurt has these qualities because of its unique liquid﹣removingprocess． Unfortunately， lots of nutrients， including calcium （钙）， are sometimes drained， too． Therefore， thickened yogurt and regular yogurt offer different nutritional benefits．（4）_______Finally， it is worth mentioning that it's the added sugar， not the naturally﹣ occurring sugar （which is removed in Greek yogurt）， that should be the cause of our concern． Fruit﹣flavored yogurts that appear to be healthy may have little actual fruit and plenty of added sugar instead．（5）_______A． Consumers， however，are not confused only about fat．B． Mixing them up and enjoying both might be a good idea．C． With so many conflicting headlines about fat these days， it's no wonder people are confused when buying dairy products．D． Our best bet might be to buy plain yogurt and sweeten it ourselves using fresh fruit．E． There are so many choices that we often find it hard to decide which yogurt to buy．F． They're naturally "packaged" with so many important nutrients that it would be misguided to avoid them．G． Yet more research needs to be done for us to fully understand dairy fat's health impact．第三部分：语言运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节：完形填空（共1小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面材料，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项．5.

2020年浙江省教科院附属实验学校高三英语二模试题及答案
2020年浙江省教科院附属实验学校高三英语二模试题及答案第一部分阅读（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A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项ABob and Sue Harvey spent nine years as resident fellows in a dormitory at Sanford and in their bookVirtual Reality and The College Freshman, they write “The Freshman oftenfaces an identity problem during the first semester.” College is a more pressured environment than it used to be, in part because the academic gap between high school and college has increased. Many college freshmen have never had to make independent decisions about sex, drugs and alcohol. Most don’t know how to manage their time or money. They often feel lonely and overwhelmed, resulting in anxiety and depression.Nancy Corbin, director of clinical service for student-counseling (咨询) services at Iowa State University, says her office is seeing a significant increase in requests for counseling from freshmen who are having trouble making the adjustment to college life. She says older teenagers increasingly lack the skills to deal with personal problems that aren’t easily defined or fixed. And they get homesick but have a hard time admitting it.Parents and high schools can make things easier on freshmen by preparing them differently. For example, by teaching them to budget their hours and dollars. The Harveys think high schools should offer a college-life course. “Parents need to focus more on relationship and personal issues and less on how many sheets and towels to take,” they say. Many homesick freshmen think they’ll be regarded as failures if they come home before Thanksgiving. So parents can help by letting them know they’re welcome to return if they feel the need. In the meantime, parents have to find new ways to keep in touch with their college kids. One of the best ways is e-mail. It’s less unpleasant and less expensive than constant phone calls and is more likely to be answered than a handwritten letter.1. Why is the first semester difficult for freshmen in college?A. Because they often fail in exams.B. Because they lack time and money.C. Because they are too homesick to make new friends.D. Because they have to settle personal issues on their own.2. In the last paragraph, it is suggested that ________.A. parents should stop buying anything for their kidsB. parents should develop a good relationship with their kidsC. parents should be taught how to send e-mails to their kidsD. parents should work with high schools in college-life courses3. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. Hard Life of College FreshmenB. Approaches to Trouble in CollegeC. Freshmen’s Adaptation ProblemsD. A Strange Phenomenon in CollegeBThe beach may seem like an inviting place to run on a cool summer morning, but is running on the sand good for your body? It can be, but it’s important to be aware of the challenges that some beach runners experience before you get ready.Running on the beach can be a good thing. It’s certainly different from running on a track or a pavement. For starters, sand can be a challenge because it has an uneven (不平坦的) surface. As you push off, you’re going to lose some of your push as the sand moves. So, you’re not going to be able to push yourself forward as you would on a track or a pavement. But this unevenness has anupside: It gives your body an extra workout, forcing you to exercise muscles that don’t get as much use during runs on firm surfaces. For example, your feet, ankles and lower back might feel sorer and more tired than usual after a beach run just because the surface is constantly moving and changing step to step.You also might feel sore afterward because beaches tend to slope (倾斜) down to the water. If you’re going for a long run on the beach, you might notice that one side of your body might feel sorer because you’re putting more pressure on it due to the slope.Some beach runners prefer to run barefoot — not wearing anything on feet. However, if you’re not used to barefoot running, start slowly and don’t run long distances at first. That’s because running barefoot uses more different muscles than running with shoes does, and it’s important to strengthen these muscles and adapt your feet. If you want to run barefoot and as long as you run carefully enough into it, go for it!Running on the sand can be a smart choice for you, because running on softer ground surfaces can reduce muscle damage.4. Why is it difficult to run on the beach for starters?A. The soft surface makes people fall over easily.B. People need to run carefully on its smooth surface.C. Running on its uneven surface takes much effort.D. It’s hard to keep one’s balance on its hard surface.5. Which of the following best explains “upside” underlined in Paragraph 2?A. Advantage.B. Reason.C. Character.D. Challenge.6. What’s the author’s attitude to barefoot running?A. Critical.B. Supportive.C. Doubtful.D. Uncaring.7. The passage can probably be found in ______.A. A primary school textbookB. A tourist guideC. A sports magazineD. A scientific reportCMany of us in China enjoy adding chilies (辣椒) toour food, but did you know that this spicy vegetable could also be dangerous? A 34-year-oldUSman recently ended up in hospital after eating a Carolina Reaper—the spiciest chili in the world. After taking just a single bite of one, the man suffered from serious headaches in the following few days, reported BBC News.In fact, reports of stomachache and headache caused by eating spicy food are not something unusual. But if chilies are harmful, why is it that human beings are the only animals to eat this vegetable? According to the website Huanqiu, about 600 million Chinese people—almost half of the national population—are chili eaters. So what makes people love chilies so much? The human body reacts to the burning feeling that comes from eating chilies by releasing natural chemicals that “produce a sense of happiness” , noted BBC News.And the benefits go even further than just personal enjoyment. A survey conducted by the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences found that the death rate of those who eat spicy food once or twice a week is 10 percent lower than those who eat it less than once a week. The number decreased to 14 percent for those who eat spicy food six to seven times a week. And another study done by theUniversityofVermontcame to a similar conclusion. “The data encourages people to eat more spicy food to improve health and reduce death risk at an early age,” Liu Qi, a nutritionist at the Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health, told BBC News.Chilies have anti-cancer quality and the ability to increase our metabolism (新陈代谢). So, don't worry if you love spicy food. It seems that chilies are actually good for us—except for the Carolina Reaper, perhaps.8. The example of a 34-year-old American is mentioned in Paragraph 1 to prove ________.A. chiliescan be beneficialB. chilies are popular inAmericaC. chilies can be dangerousD. serious headaches can be dangerous9. Eating chilies gives people a sense of happiness by_______.A. decreasing death rateB. releasing natural chemicalsC. curing serious headachesD. providing enough nutrition10. Which of the following statement is TRUE?A. Human are the only animals to eat chilies.B. Stomachache and headaches caused by chilies is something unusual.C. The more chilies you eat, the healthier you are.D. Chilies have anti-cancer quality but it can't increase our metabolism.11. The writer wrote the passage to ________.A. warn people of the dangers of chiliesB. ask people to eat Carolina ReaperC. encourage people to eat more chiliesD. tell people the benefits of chiliesDSport is not only physically challenging, but can also be mentally challenging. Criticism from coaches, parents and other teammates, as well as pressure to win can create too much anxiety or stress for young athletes. Stress canbe physical, emotional, or psychological and research has indicated that it can lead to burnout. Burnout has been described as dropping or quitting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable.The early years of development are critical years for learning about oneself. The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place. Young athletes can, for example, learn how to cooperate with others, make friends, and gain other social skills that will be used throughout their lives. Coaches and parents should be aware, at all times, that their feedback to youngsters can greatly affect their children. Youngsters may take their parents and coaches’ criticisms to heart and find faults in themselves.Coaches and parents should also pay attention that youth sport participation does not become work for children. The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other life lessons. In today’s youth sport setting young athletes may be worrying more about who will win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport. Following a game many parents and coaches focus on the outcome and find faults with youngsters’ performances. Positive support should be provided regardless of the outcome. Research indicates that positive support motivates and has a greater effect on learning than criticism. Again, criticism can create high levels of stress, which can lead to burnout.12. An effective way to prevent the burnout of young athletes is_____________.A. to make sport less competitiveB. to increase their sense of successC. to reduce their mental stressD. to make sport more challenging13. According to the passage, sport is positive for young people in that_____________.A. it can help them learn more about societyB. it enables them to find faults in themselvesC. it can provide them with valuable experiencesD. it teaches them how to set realistic goals for themselves14. Many coaches and parents are in the habit of criticizing young athletes_____________.A. believing that criticism does good to their early developmentB. without realizing criticism may destroy their selfconfidenceC. in order to make them remember life’s lessonsD. so as to put more pressure on them15. According to the passage parents and coaches should_____________.A. pay more attention to letting children enjoy sportB. help children to win every gameC. train children to cope with stressD. enable children to understand the positive aspect of sport第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

AI used to be crazy about the hunting season. The excitement of waiting for a prey(猎物)and the pride of showing off the kill fascinated me. However, everything changed after that cold morning.Early on that day of the late fall, I set off alone for the woods, packing a gun, a bottle of hot coffee and three thick sandwiches. After finding the fresh deer’s tracks in the snow, I settled down behind a little bush.I sat there for about an hour. It was then that I saw him. A deer, a big beautiful deer! There was no cover nearer to him than 30 yards. Surely I couldn’t miss! I waited for him to realize I was there. I waited fo r him to be shocked and run away. But he fooled me completely. He came towards me! He was curious, I suppose, or maybe he was stupid—how else can you explain it? Well, that deer walked right up to where I was sitting. Then he stopped and looked at me!What happened next is hard to believe, but it’s true. And it all seemed quite natural. Just as when a friendly young deer comes near you, I reached up and scratched his head. And he liked to be scratched. In fact, he practically asked for more. Then, I fed him my sandwich! Yes, I know what a deer eats, but that deer ate my sandwich. Well, he finally went his way, down the hill and up the deer trail. Shoot him? Not me. You wouldn’t have either, not after that. I just watched him go.When I was about half way back, I heard two shots, followed by a dull slam(撞击)a few seconds later. Those two shots usually mean a kill. I had forgotten there were other hunters that day.Those hunters would never know they could have scratched his head.21. Why didn’t the author kill the deer?A. He preferred to shoot a shy deer.B. He was fooled by the tricky deer.C. He was sympathetic for the deer.D. He was too shocked to shoot the deer.22. What most probably happened to the deer in the end?A. Other hunters shot the deer to death.B. Other hunters scratched the deer’s head too.C. The deer managed to escape from being shot.D. The deer would become friends with the author.23. What’s the best title of this text?A.A Hunting in Late Fall.B.A Lovely Deer.C. The Cruel Killing.D. The Last Hunting.【文章大意】这是一篇记叙文。

2020届浙江省教科院附属实验学校高三英语二模试卷及答案解析第一部分阅读（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A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AAQUILA Children’s Magazine is the most intelligent read for curious kids. Full of enthusiastic articles and challenging puzzles, every issue covers science, history and general knowledge. AQUILA is a quality production, beautifully illustrated with contemporary artwork throughout.● Intelligent reading for 8-12 year-olds● Cool science and challenging projects● Inspires self-motivated learning● Exciting new topic every issueAQUILA is created and owned by an independent UK company. It has 28 pages,printed on high-quality paper and there are no advertisements or posters. Instead it is full of well-written articles, thought-provoking ideas and great contemporary artwork. Each monthly issue is centred around a new topic.AQUILA works as a superb learning extension to current primary (or KS2 and KS3) curriculum (课程), but it is much more than that! Entertaining and always surprising, AQUILA is recommended because it widens children’s interest and understanding, rather than encouraging them to concentrate only on their favourite subjects. It gives children a well-rounded understanding of the world, in all its complexity.The concepts in AQUILA can be challenging, requiring good comprehension and reading skills. 8 years is usually a good age to start. Some gentle interest from an adult is often helpful at the start.In 2020 AQUILA will have been in publication for 28 years, but it has never appeared in newsstands or shops. We are subscription only.AQUILA SubscriptionUK: 12 Months £55 - 4 Months £30Europe: 12 Months £60 -4 Months £35World: 12 Months £70 - 4 Months £35BirthdaysSelect the Birthday option, write a gift message and choose the birthday month.

This list should give you some ideas on how to get more from your coke than usual.. Coca Cola is an excellent rust buster (除锈剂). If you have a bunch of small rusty objects, put them in coke overnight and give them a goodscrubin the morning. Coke helps to break down the rust, making cleaning much easier. Be sure to throw out the used coke when you are done with it or you might be taking a trip to the doctor.. Like the previous item, the citric acid (柠檬酸) in coke makes for an excellent window cleaner. This is especially useful for car windows. Pour a can of coke over the window and rub the window, then wipe it off with a wet cloth to remove any sugary matter from the sugar in the drink. As coke is fullof sugar, you should clean the sticky matter off the window glasses, or it will be not a cleaner but a dirt.. For those of you who live in areas where skunk (臭鼬) smells can be an issue from time to time, one can of coke added to water with detergent (清洁剂) really helps to break the smell down. If you have been sprayed, stand in the shower and cover yourself from head to toe with coke — wait for a few minutes, then wash yourself with a shower. Coke is an excellent hair treatment so you get two tips for the price of one with this item!. Pots can sometimes get black on the bottom. The black is almost impossible to remove; this is caused by over-cooking. To remove the black and renew your pot, pour in a can of coke (or as much as you need to cover theblackened area by an inch) and put it on the stove on a low heat. After an hour or so, wash the pot as normal.4. What does the underlined word “scrub”in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Start.B. Cleaning.C. Shake.D. Example.5. What is important while using coke to clean car windows?A. Use a dry cloth.B. Rub the window lightly.C. Don’t pour too much coke.D. Clean the sugary matter thoroughly.6. For which purpose does coke have to be mixed with other material?A. To get rid of the black on the pot.B. To breakdown the rust,C. To remove smells.D. To clean windows.7. What type of writing is this text?A. An advertisement.B. A review.C. A news report.D. A practical guide.CIn ancient times, Chinese used plant leaves or bird feathers as a fan during the summer time. This was the earliest form of the fan. The first real fan was made back in the era of Yao and Shun period thousands of years ago. Since then,Chinese-made fans have become a vital part of Chinese art and culture. At the beginning, the fan functioned as a tool to generate a current of air in the hot weather. Now electric fans such as ceiling fans and other technological breakthroughs have taken the place.Long ago, fans caught the attention of ancient Chinese artists by chance. Thereafter, a unique fan art gradually took shape in the history of Chinese culture. Fan art usually includes Chinese calligraphy, paintings, or poems on the sectors（扇区）. Special skills are needed to write or paint on them.Due to its history and partly because of its unique shape, Chinese would soon develop the tradition of using fans as ornaments（装饰品）. Fans are made in different sizes and different color1 s to meet the needs of each request. Other Chinese ornaments, such as the Chinese knot, the green jade, and the Spring Festival picture, are often combined in each design.The value of fans depends mainly on the materials used and the level of craftsmanship that is involved during the process. Feather, paper, jade, bamboo and silk have all been used as ideal materials to make fans. Ancient Chinese even made iron fans to serve as deadly weapons（武器）in Chinese martial arts. Fans made by famous craftsmen are often characterized by pretty designs and detailed workmanship, and thus become favorites of collectors.

I was the same way, just going with the flow. I played basketball in high school because I was good at it and because other people thought I should until I discovered my talent.I give up basketball and started doing speeches. It wasn’t a popular decision but my grandfather told me to do what made me happy. I fell in love with comedy and performing. And when I discovered the passion, I realized why I was born.I knew I had something to offer —I knew that not only am I powerful, but I can make a difference.I realized a long time ago that my dream is not to be famous or rich. My talent is to entertain. But it’s more than that. I have the chance to reach people, to brighten days, to bring laughter and positive energy into lives and inspire. And I am grateful forit.Acting putting myself out there and having doors closed on me time and time again has taught me a lot about myself. I have learned to trust what I have to offer the world over momentary doubt. I’ve learned to put my faith over my feelings. And I've grown a tough skin. More importantly, I have learned there is a long way towards our goals and that when we put our talents and passion to work, we determine our value.Like a lot of places across the country, there’s poverty, crime, violence and unemployment in Harvey. And growing up there, a lot of people have tragically low expectations for life. But I know that with the right opportunity and with help along the way, everyone can find their passion and go after it. My life is proof.12. What was the author born to do according to the text?A.

AI began working in journalism(新闻工作)when I was eight. It was my mother's idea. She wanted me to “make something” of myself, and decided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of keeping up with the competition.With my load of magazines I headed toward Belleville Avenue. The crowds were there. There were two gas stations on the corner of Belleville and Union. For several hours I made myself highly visible, making sure everyone could see me and the heavy black letters on the bag that said THE SATURDAY EVENING POST. When it was supper time, I walked back home.“ How many did you sell, my boy?” my mother asked.“ None.”“ Where did you go?”“ The corner of Belleville and Union Avenues.”“ What did you do?”“ Stood on the corner waiting for somebody to buy a Saturday Evening Post.”“ You just stood there?”“ Didn't sell a single one.”“ My God, Russell!”Uncle Allen put in, “ Well, I've decided to take the Post.” I handed him a copy and he paid me a nickle(五分镍币). It was the first nickle I earned.Afterwards my mother taught me how to be a salesman. I would have to ring doorbells, address adults with self-confidence(自信), and persuade them by saying that no one, no matter how poor, could afford to be without the Saturday Evening Post in the home.One day, I told my mother I'd changed my mind. I didn't want to make a success in the magazine business.“ If you think you can change your mind like this,” she replied, “ you'll become a good-for-nothing.” She insisted that, as soon as school was over, I should start ringing doorbells, selling magazines. Whenever I said no, she would scold me.My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember. My mother, dissatisfied with my father's plain workman's life, determined that I would not grow up like him and his people. But never did she expect that, forty years later, such a successful journalist as me would go back to her husband's people for true life and love.21.Why did the boy start his job young?A.He wanted to be famous in the futureB.The job was quite easy for himC.His mother had high hopes for himD.The competition for the job was fierce22.From the dialogue between the boy and his mother, we learn that the mother was _____.A.excitedB.interestedC.ashamedD.disappointed23.What did the mother do when the boy wanted to give up?A.She forced him to continueB.She punished himC.She gave him some moneyD.She changed her planBHave you ever noticed that after about 6 months your perfectly new 1,000 dollar smartphone begins to slow down? What if I told you that it's a sales strategy that pretty much all phone companies use to force people intobuying new phones?In late 2015, when Lisa Young was in charge of iOS security and beta software testing teams, her boss revealed a dark secret to her, saying that they were using a new strategy that would purposely slow down older phones every time the phone would upgrade to the latest operating system. This new method would force customers to buy the latest phone model, increasing sales by 70%.She was a little disturbed to hear the news, but she just kept her head down and continued to do her job. After a while, the guilt of being involved with such a shady sales model started to weigh heavily on her. "How could a multi-billion dollar corporation continue to take advantage of the public like this?" she thought. In March of 2017, she contacted a reporter from CNN to finally leak the information concerning Apple slowing down phones.The scandal (丑闻) went viral overnight, and every media outlet in the world, in every language was talking about it, making it one of the biggest controversies in consumer electronics history. A week later, she was secretly let go after her 8 years of service. Although she was taking a huge risk going against one of the most powerful corporations in the world, she felt a sense of relief exposing it. The public deserved to know and the fear became her motivation to find a way to destroy their shady sales model.Several of her colleagues were fired with her. They quietly united, and after a year of extensive research they designed a unique product called CircaCharge that would reverse the negative effects of "software updates". Phone companies have recently got wind of their overnight success with CircaCharge and are trying to do everything they can to make this product illegal and ban it forever. Lisa and her team have made unbelievable progress in increasing battery life, battery health, and optimizing phone performance, and they will continue to develop new technology that will beat phone companies at their own game until they change their ways.24.What can we learn about the new method mentioned in paragraph 2?A.It is essential in the latest operating system.B.It benefits users in upgrading their old phone.C.It fools customers into buying the latest model on purpose.D.It is a successful sales strategy for advertising new softwares.25.What does the underlined phrase "kept her head down" in paragraph 3 refer to?A.Shook her head.B.Nodded to show approval.C.Pretended to know something.D.Tried not to show she knows something.26.From the passage, we know ________.A.it's too tough for Lisa and her team to increase battery lifeB.CircaCharge helps phone companies with software updatesC.Lisa struggles to force phone companies to change their current waysD.phone companies find it essential to ban their illegal software for updatingCPeople asked to imagine how flooding or droughts would affect particular people or places were more likely to engage in environmentally friendly actions. Many people view climate change as a distant threat. But having them imagine the tangible (有形的) consequences of resulting droughts or floods may help change this idea and encourage pro-environmental behavior, a new study suggests.Researchers asked 93 college students to read a report on temperature anomalies (异常),floods and other climate change-related events that have affected the island. The scientists then asked 62 of the participants to write down three ways in which such phenomena might impact their future lives. Half the people in that group were instructed to imagine such situations in detail. The remaining 31 students did not complete either the writing or imagining steps, acting as a control group.All the participants then rated their ideas of climate change risks by responding to questions such as "How likely do you think it is that climate change is having serious impacts on the world?" They used a scale from 1 ("very unlikely") to 7 ("very likely"). The average score was higher among subjects who had been asked to envisiondetailed situations than among those who had not. The results were later confirmed in a second experiment involving 102 participants.Participants in the first experiment who had imagined the effects of climate change were more likely to say they would use air conditioning in an energy-saving manner. In the second experiment, nearly two thirds of people in the visualizing (想象) group signed up to help clean a beach, compared with 43 percent in the nonvisualizing one. And when offered a choice of a vegetarian (素食主义的) or nonvegetarian lunch box, nearly half the visualizers selected the environmentally friendlier meatless choice-compared with about 28 percent of the nonvisualizers.The researchers did not track people to see if they behaved differently in their day-to-day lives-something further studies should examine, says study co-author Wen-Bin Chiou. Moreover, the research "should be done again in other places with other populations," says Robert Gifford, a professor of psychology at the University of Victoria in British Columbia, who was not involved in the work.The findings could be applied to raise public concern about climate change, Chiou says. For example, he suggests that news reports about the phenomenon could include vivid descriptions of its effects on people's lives and ask readers to imagine experiencing such impacts. Having virtual-reality demonstrations (展示) in local science museums of the consequences of climate change would be another way of putting the research into practice, Chiou adds.27.Which of the following statements about the study is true?A.Only one experiment was carried out for the study.B.Professor Robert Gifford played a key role in the study.C.The control group only completed the writing step in the experiment.D.Participants asked to imagine detailed effects scored higher than those who weren't.28.Future studies will probably be about whether ______.A.it is true of other populations in other placesB.more money will be donated to the people affected by climate change-related eventsC.people choose vegetarian lunch boxes in their daily livesD.climate change will cause people to think about joining in a control group29.To put the research into practice, Wen-Bin Chiou suggests that ______.A.the government call on people to live a low-carbon lifeB.people use air conditioning in an energy-saving mannerC.people experience possible effects of climate change through virtual reality facilitiesD.news reports provide vivid descriptions of the effects of climate change on people's lives30.The passage mainly tells us that ______.A.different people may have different reactions to climate changeB.different forms of climate change may affect people's ideas in different waysC.people may change their behavior after thinking about the vivid impacts of climate changeD.college students show great concern for the people affected by climate change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。
2020年浙江省教科院附属实验学校高三英语二模试卷及答案
2020年浙江省教科院附属实验学校高三英语二模试卷及答案第一部分阅读（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A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AEach year, theLas Vegasconsumer electronics show, or CES, presents the latest developments in many areas of technology. The newest products are designed to make our lives easier, fun and more productive.A car with legsOne of this year’s presentations was by South Korean carmaker Hyun-dai. The company introduced a small model of a “ walking car,” which is called Elevate. It has four movable legs that can raise the main part of the vehicle high off the ground. The electric-powered vehicle is designed to be used in search-and-rescue operations during emergencies or natural disasters.Changeable people moverGermany's Mercedes presented an experimental self-driving vehicle that it claims can revolutionize transportation for people and goods. The company says the vehicle, called Vision Urbanetic, will be able lo easily change bodies depending on its desired use. Mercedes says as a ride-sharing vehicle , the futuristic-looking car can seat 12 people.Fully electric HarleyAmerican manufacturer Harley-Davidson showed off its first fully electric motorcycle, called LiveWire. The company says the bike will be able to go 177 kilometers between charges. It can reach 96 kilometers per hour in under3.5 seconds. Although Harley is known for building powerful bikes with huge, loud motors, the LiveWire will be unusually quiet.Personal robotsOne of the new robots, called Temi, is really just a computer tablet on wheels. It is designed to be a personal electronic assistant. It moves around the home and performs commands when spoken to. It can link users to friends through voice or video, connect to video or place orders for food or goods.1. Which do you probably use to search for the injured in an earthquake?A. Elevate.B. Vision Urbanetic.C. LiveWire.D. Temi.2. What is the first fully electric motorcycle produced by Harley-Davidson?A. ElevateB. Hyun-daiC. LiveWire .D. Temi .3. Why are the four products designed?A. To ease traffic jam.B. To help us socialize.C. To improve our life.D. To protect the environment.BWe all use different ways to remember ideas, facts and things we need to store. Remembering is an extremely important part of our learning experience. Information process, storage and recall encourage purposeful learning.But the brain doesn’t store everything we want or need for future use. It makes choices and tends to remember information that forms a memorable pattern. Things you learned recently can be particularly difficult to remember because they haven’t taken root in your mind.“Forgetting allows us to remember what is really important to our survival. We forget much of what we read, watch, and think directly every day.” writes John Medina in his book, Brain Rules.How do you avoid losing 90%of what you’ve learned? An inspiring writer and speaker Zig Ziglar once said: “Repetition is the mother of learning, the father of action, which makes it the architect of accomplishment.”Repetition has been a remembering skill for ages. When you hear or read something once，you don’t really learn it-at least not well enough to store the new information for long. The right kind of repetition can do wonders for your memory. People learn or remember better by repeating things or getting exposed to information many times. Othersrepeat particular steps or processes deliberately a number of times or even years to become better at certain skills.Daniel Coyle explains in his book, The Little Book of Talent:“...closing the book and writing a summary, even short ones, forces you to figure out the key points, process and organize those ideas so they make sense, and write them on the page. When you pick it back up weeks later, reread all of your notes or highlights to strengthen the ideas even further.”People learn by repeating things. Better learning is a repetition process. Every time we repetitively access something we already know, we increase the memory’s stored value.4. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A. The brain tends to store 90% of the things we learn.B. The fresher the information isthe easier to remember.C. Thinking is more important than remembering in study.D. The brain tends to choose and keep what it thinks important.5. How does the writer prove his opinion?A.By giving examples.B. By listing numbers.C. By borrowing words of experts.D. By providing scientific finding.6. What does Daniel Coyle want to say in his book?A. You can’t pay too much attention to repetition.B. Summarizing is a very effective learning tool.C. Forgetting forces human brain to make choices.D. Regular repetition helps to form good habits.7. Which do you think is the best title of the passage?A. How the Brain WorksB. Reading for MoreC. Fighting Against ForgettingD. Repeat to RememberCIt all happened one afternoon in Carl's backyard a few years ago. We had just finished playing stickball, and I was about to go home.“Wait a minute,” Carl yelled. He ran into his house and cameback with a book for me to take home and read. All he said was, “See if you like it.”I said ly nothing. I kept the book for a couple of weeks and then returned it unread. Carl never asked me if I liked it or not. During the following two years Carl lent me three more books. Each time I returned them unread.A few days after graduating from high school, Carl asked, “Benny, which college are you going to?”“I'm not going to college.” I said.“Why not?” he asked.“Because my father can't afford the tuition (学费).” I answered.“Is that it?” Carl asked. “Yes,” I said.I lied. I had no intention of going back to school now that I was out. The following day, Carl knocked on my door and handed me a check for seventy-five dollars from his father along with the bookMartin Eden.“I think that should do it.” he said.Once again I was in shock. I was working full-time in my brother's bakery. I attended two classes atWayneUniversitypart-time at night. Halfway through the semester, after receiving failing grades on exams and essays, I decided there was no way I would ever become a good student and get satisfactory grades. I dropped out of college.One day, curious, I picked up the book, thinking Carl was trying to tell me something. Despite difficulty, I pressed on. By the time I finished the book, I understood why: the main character, Martin Eden, had my own poor educational background, but managed to educate himself and become a published author.8. What do we know about the author?A. He often told lies.B. He quit school unwillingly.C. He had thought little of education before.D. He became a published author.9. What kind of person is Carl?A. Caring.B. Emotional.C. Stubborn.D. Cautious.10. What message does Carl want to convey?A. Reading makes a rich man.B. Reading is the journey of the soul.C. Reading makes a person better known.D.Readingopens up new opportunities.11. What is the best title for the text?A. A strong desire for collegeB. A wish for better educationC. A wise friendD. A wise bookDOver 180 teenage girls from LixianCounty No. 1 Middle School in Longnan city, Gansu province, listened carefully to a lecture about neuroscience (神经科学). It was delivered by a director of the experimental surgery department at The Second Affiliated Hospital of the Air Force Medical University in Xi’an.The students also joined a science class to make paper rockets to launch into the sky. A plastic bottle was connected with a long pipe joined to the end of the rocket, and students stepped heavily on the middle of the bottle so hard that the air pressure shot the rocket upward.The program started in 2016 as a one-week summer camp in Beijing that invited female students to take science courses and to interact with women in science. It aims to stir (激发) an interest in science and technology among female students.“I’m excited to take the opportunity because it’s been my biggest wish to popularize science among students.They can broaden their eyes and hopefully some of them will devote themselves to the field of neuroscience,” the director says. “It’s necessary to bring more of these activities on campus. I’m willing to communicate with teenagers, some of whom ask deep and thoughtful questions that I would never think of.”The key to science popularization is to imbue (灌输) others with the spirit of science. Some scientific and technological workers have devoted themselves to a job in a certain field and they enjoy the pleasure of scientific research. Female Chinese scientific and technological workers sometimes have to double their efforts to receive the same treatment or recognition as those male scientific workers. However, after years of continued effort, the situation will improve, showing the increasing number of female scientists in China.12. What is the purpose of the program?A. To praise the efforts of women scientists.B. To find out how much girls love science.C. To develop interest in science among girls.D. To show love for students in Western China.13. How does the director think of the program?A. Important.B. Challenging.C. Confusing.D. Serious.14. What is the most important in science popularization?A. Enjoying the fun of scientific research.B. Filling people with the spirit of science.C. Holding more scientific activities on campus.D. Forcing students to choose scientific subjects.15. What can we learn from the text?A. One can go anywhere if he/she learns science well.B. People have a stronger sense of science than before.C. Male scientists are much easily recognized than female ones.D. Thedirector graduated from Lixian County No. 1 Middle School.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

AImagine someone who has spent the majority of their life sitting with a sign on the side of the road and that very person giving someone their last 20 dollars. That’s exactly what Marine Corps veteran (退伍军人)Johnny Bobbitt,34,did in October in Philadelphia.Bobbitt served in the U.S. Marine Corps and worked as a paramedic (医务辅助人员)in Vance County, N. C. before he became homeless. Nobody knew how he got to where he was because he was discreet about that.One night in October, Bobbitt was sitting roadside with a sign in Philadelphia as usual, when Kate McClure of Florence Township, N. J. was driving home down Interstate 95 and ran out of gas. Scared and nervous, she got out of the car to head to the nearest gas station. As McClure was heading to the nearest gas station, she ran into Bobbitt and he told her to get back in the vehicle and lock the door. Minutes later, he appeared with a red gas can. He’d used his last $20 to buy her gas.After that unexpected meeting, McClure and her boyfriend, Mark D'Amico, who both live in New Jersey, visited Bobbitt several times to deliver gift cards, cash, snacks and toiletries. They then decided to create afund-raising page so he wouldn't have to spend the holidays sleeping on the street.McClure started the GoFundMe page on November 10. With the page, the couple hoped to raise $10,000, enough money for his rent, a reliable vehicle and up to six months ’ expenses. Bobbitt's story ran in a local paper. By November 15, more than 10,000 local people had made donations through the GoFundMe page and more than $300,000 had been raised.On Thanksgiving, Bobbitt was resting in a hotel, his feet up on the bed, drawing up a grand plan for his new life, thanks to several thousand dollars raised to repay him for a good deed.21.What does the underlined word “discreet” in paragraph 2 most probably mean?A.Doubtful.B.Cautious.C.Guilty.D.Optimistic.22.McClure met Bobbitt when she______.A.couldn't find a gas stationB.got to the way homeC.couldn't unlock her carD.was in search of gas23.It can be known from the text that_____.A.Bobbitt’s story obtained wide attentionB.Bobbitt became world-famous overnightC.the GoFundMe page collected over $400,000 for BobbittD.the GoFundMe page was started to help people like BobbittBNearly every week, we hear news about the latest successes and failures in driverless vehicles. But we hear little about how other industries are developing this same kind of technology. One industry heavily involved in researching and developing artificial intelligence, or AI, is agriculture. Companies are experimenting withhigh-tech tools that can help farmers save time and money, while reducing environment-harming chemicals.One of the companies is ecoRobotix of Switzerland. It created a robot equipped with AI and cameras to identify all plants on a farm. The robot has four wheels to carry itself through the fields in search of weeds. Computer-controlled arms then lower and spray the weeds with small amounts of herbicide (除草剂). Company officials say the robot can fully operate on its own for up to 12 hours a day while being powered by the sun. It uses the same kind of sensor and positioning technology used to guide driverless vehicles. A farmer can also control the equipment through a smartphone.The co-founder of ecoRobotix, Aurélien Demaurex, says the farm robot can kill weeds with 20 times less herbicide than traditional methods. This is because the system uses exactly the right chemical amount in the exact place required to kill the weeds. Currently, farmers spread weed killers over massive areas to destroy unwanted plants.Another company developing farm robotics is California-based Blue River Technology. The company has a system called "See & Spray", which it claims was the world's first smart sprayer. The system—which is connected to the back of a tractor—is also equipped with AI to identify and chemically kill only the weeds. It can also spray chemicals on wanted plants to help them grow. Ben Chostner, vice-president of business development for Blue River Technology, explains in a company video that See & Spray technology uses the same deep learning methods used in facial recognition. "The first time the machine saw pigweed, it didn't know what kind of plant it was. But we taught it—by giving it tens of thousands of examples of that pigweed一and now it's an expert in pigweed."24.How will AI benefit agriculture?A.It will fund agriculture research.B.It contributes to low-cost farming.C.It can avoid harmful chemicals.D.It frees all farmers from field work.25.What do the products of the two companies have in common?A.They use recognition technology.B.They are powered by solar energy.C.They are connected with smartphones.D.They can help wanted plants grow rapidly.26.What do Ben Chostner's words suggest about the robot?A.It is environmentally friendly.B.It is good at self-improving.C.It has the learning ability.D.It can track various plants.CBrain health is key to successful ageing, and it involves several mental functions including memory, reasoning and planning. Memory defines who we are—without memory we have no past, cannot plan for the future and are unable to enjoy the present. Our reasoning and planning skills help us create and maintain healthy lifestyle habits that protect our bodies and minds.People are living much longer than ever before. Those born in 1900 would have been lucky to reach their 50th birthday. Today, life expectancy in many countries exceeds 80, but unfortunately age-related diseases such as Alzheimer's and diabetes can diminish quality of life.As we age, brain cells that normally fight off infection and repair tissue begin to attack healthy brain cells. This causes inflammation (炎症) and can lead to cognitive deficits and disease. But adopting healthy lifestyle habits, such as eating fish, getting a good night's sleep and doing physical exercise, can slow and even reverse the process.The typical 45-year-old has worse memory than the 25-year-old y and our brains will continue to decline if we do nothing to protect them. However, if we intervene (干预) early, we can slow the decline. It's always easier to protect a healthy brain than to try to repair damage once it is extensive.Although there is a genetic component to healthy ageing, lifestyle habits may be more critical than genes. The landmark MacArthur Studies of Successful Ageing showed that, on average, non-genetic factors are more important than genetics in determining how well and long we live, suggesting that we have more control than we realize over remaining healthy as we get older.27.What does the underlined word "ageing" mean in the first paragraph?A.The process of getting old.B.Mental functions.C.Life expectancy.D.Healthy lifestyle.28.What can we do to slow the decline of our brains?A.Enjoying the present.B.Staying in a good mood.C.Working as long as possible.D.Adopting healthy lifestyle habits.29.What does MacArthur Studies of Successful Ageing suggest?A.Age-related diseases affect our quality of life.B.Genetic factors determine how well we live.C.We can do something to live better and longer.D.Sometimes we don9t know how to keep healthy.30.What is the main idea of the text?A.Daily habits determine your longevity.B.You should protect your brains early.C.Good health results from right food.D.Body exercise also benefits mental health.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。

One day I had a sudden thought to get a chalk-board,” Gallagher said. “My mum and grandmot her didn’t like the idea, but my friends thought it was great and told me to go for it, so I did.”Gallagher said people often stare when she’s writing on her leg, but once she shares the photos, she receives only positive feedback(反馈), “My leg hasn’t stop ped me from doing anything I’ve wanted to do,” she said. “I don’t know if it’s my determination to prove to myself that I can do it, anyway, I’ve been able to keep up with people at my age and lead a pretty great life.”Gallagher shows us that you should never let anything stand in the way of your dreams. Andif life gives you an artificial leg, make art.21.What message did Gallagher want to spread in her special way?A.She enjoys her travelling across the globe.B.She suffers little from her leg’s amputat ion.C.She looks on her misfortune as another form of blessing.D.She has exactly fallen in love with posting photos online.22.What does the word “which” underlined in paragraph 3 refer to?A.the picturesB.the continentC.the legD.the location23.Gallagher can best be described as ________.A.helpful and ambitiousB.friendly and generousC.determined and creativeD.independent and wise答案：CAC解析：21.细节理解题。

Do kids need rules, or is it more important for them to find out on their own what works and what doesn't work? It all depends on what the rules are supposed to accomplish. My feeling is that the most effective rules are the ones that will help students now and in the future. The school and parents should avoid rules that have no long-term value and make rules that help students focus on the future.__1__For example, unreasonable dress and grooming(修饰) codes are particularly annoying. What lasting benefit do they have? Boys have been sent home for wearing their hair too long. What is gained by regulating hairstyles? It seems to me that learning about appropriate grooming is something that students can safely learn on their own. It won't really ruin a person's life to look back at a yearbook picture in 10 years and laugh at the hairstyles.On the other hand, most students respect rules and requirements that help them stay focused on the future. It seems that every day the world gets more confused about what's important, so it's definitely useful to have a few guidelines for staying on track. Students may complain about having to take required courses(especially the ones they don't like), reading books during summer vacation, and doing community service, but at least they can see that there are clear reasons for these requirements. __2__My own lesson in rules happened when I was in eighth grade. Because I got all C's on my firstquarter report card, Dad said that I was limited to one hour of TV on school nights. Of course, I was upset and said my freedom was being taken away. Dad stood firm, and my grades improved dramatically. __3__ I probably wouldn't have come up with the TV rule on my own, and as a result, my life may have been much different.I realize that people who come up with rules mean well. They, too, are trying to remove distractions and smooth the way to success for students. __4__ Good intentions don't always make good rules.第一节根据短文内容，从A、B、C、D和E中选出最适合填入短文空白处的选项。

AIt was Monday. Mrs Smith's dog was hungry, but there was not any meat in the house.Considering that there was no better way, Mrs Smith took a piece of paper, and wrote the following words on it, "Give my dog half a pound of meat." Then she gave the paper to her dog and said gently, "Take this to the butcher(卖肉者), and he's going to give you your lunch today."Holding the piece of paper in its mouth, the dog ran to the butcher's shop. It gave the paper to the butcher. The butcher read it carefully, recognized that it was really the lady's handwriting and pleasantly did as he was asked to. The dog was very happy, and ate the meat up immediately.At midday, the dog came to the shop again. It gave the butcher a piece of paper again. After reading it, he gave it half a pound of meat once more.The next day, the dog came again exactly at midday. And as usual, it brought a piece of paper in the mouth. This time, the butcher did not take a look at the paper, and gave the dog its meat, for he had thought of the dog as one of his customers.However, the dog came again at four o'clock. And the same thing happened once again. To the butcher's more surprise, it came for the third time at six o'clock, and brought with it a third piece of paper. The butcher felt a bit puzzled. He said to himself, "This is a small dog. Why does Mrs Smith give it so much meat to eat today?"Looking at the piece of paper, he found that there were not any words on it!21.When Mrs Smith's dog was hungry, what did she give to the dog?A. Some chicken.B. Half a pound of meat.C.A hot dog.D.A piece of paper with some words on it.22. Mrs Smith treated her little dog quite _______.A. rudelyB. proudlyC. friendlyD. angrily23.From its experience, the dog found that _______.A.only the paper with Mrs Smith's words on it could bring it meatB.a piece of paper could bring it half a pound of meatC.the butcher would give the meat to it whenever he saw itD.Mrs Smith would pay for the meat it got from the butcher答案：21-23 DCB文章大意：本文为记叙文。

Ever say to yourself：Hey, I wish that I could do more to help the environment? Have you ever thought about trying to help the earth but never really did it? Well, here are some pretty easyand skillful ideas for that green - earth desire inside you.●Turn off your computer. By leaving it on all day you are creating more CO2than a regular passenger would, driving to and from work in one day.● Ride your bike or carpool (合用汽车).Obviously, youare creating less CO2which will help the ozone(臭氧).● Make a garden. Even simply grow some plants in your kitchen, which will help produce more oxygen while eating up some of that evil CO2.● Buy local groceries. It creates less impact on the environment. Besides, you're supporting your local farmers.● Recycle. You had to see this coming. But you have no idea how much you are helping the environment by simply reusing a water bottle instead of buying a huge pack at the store.● Don't run the water while brushing. It saves you money and helps the water resources.● Open the curtains. Natural light is much prettier and it will keep the energy usage down.● Rechargeable batteries. You have no idea how much it takes to get rid of batteries. Do yourself a favor. Save some money and some energy.1. If you don't want to create more CO2, you may_______.A. turn off your computer or open the curtainsB. turn off your computer or ride your bike or carpoolC. make a garden or open the curtainsD. use rechargeable batteries or make a garden2. Which of the following can best describe the function of the first paragraph?A. Main body.B. Argument.C. Lead - in.D. Conclusion.3. The main idea of the passage is about________.A. the importance of environmental protectionB. some ways about how to prevent pollutionC. some suggestions about how to save energyD. some suggestions about environmental protectionBMy family and I never talked about school as the ticket to a future. I was in theclassroom, but I wasn't there to learn to write, read or even speak. When it was my turn to read, I wanted to hide. I was 13 years old, but I already hated being who I was.I had an English teacher, Mr.Creech, who knew I couldn't read. In one of my first lessons the teacher said that anyone who had a reading age below six had to stand up. I felt so embarrassed. But at the same time, it made me realize that I needed to change the situation. I was determined it wouldn't happen again. Later that day, Mr.Creech encouraged me and promised he would try his best to help me learn to read. From then on, I never gave up practicing reading.Then when I was 41 years old, one day, I planned to fly back toTexasto visit my friends and family. On my way from the airport, I saw Mr.Creech buying himself a drink. I rushed over and reached into my pocket to pay for him. “Do I know you？” he asked. “Yes, sir, you do know me，” I answered excitedly. “My name is Anthony Hamilton. You taught me English.” The look on his face told me that he remembered the boy he'd once encouraged.“I'm so glad I had a chance to see you，” I said. “And Mr.Creech, I have great news to share.” I told him I had learned to read. But that wasn't all. I had become a published author and an active speaker. “The next time you get another Anthony Hamilton in your classroom, please encourage him to read as well，” I added.The experts say what once worried me has a name：dyslexia(诵读困难). But I can tell you it was a lack of desire for education.4. Why did the author want to hide?A. Because he felt sorry for himself.B. Because he hated being laughed at.C. Because he couldn't read at all.D. Because he didn't have a ticket.5. Which of the following could best describe Mr.Creech?A. Considerate and dutiful.B. thoughtful and enthusiastic.C. Emotional and devoted.D. Friendly and wise.6. Why couldn't the author read before meeting Mr.Creech?A. Because his reading age was not long enough.B. Because his parents didn't teach him how to read.C. Because he was afraid of reading before the class.D. Because he didn't have inner driving force to learn to read.7. What can we infer from the passage?A. Mr.Creech taught two students called Anthony Hamilton.B. The author had become a published author and an active speaker.C. Dyslexia was just the reason that made the author unable to read.D. The author was grateful to Mr.Creech.CHoneybees can’t swim, and when their wings are wet, they can’t fly, either. But Chris Roh and other researchers at the California Institute of Technology found that when bees drop into bodies of water, they can use their wings toproduce little waves and slide toward land-like surfers who create and then ride their own waves.As with many scientific advances-IsaacNewton’s apple or Benjamin Franklin’s lightning bolt-Dr. Roh’s experiment began with a walk. Passing Caltech’s Millikan Pond in 2016, he observed a bee on the water’s surface producing waves. He wondered how an insect known for flight could push itself through water.Dr. Roh and his co-worker, Morteza Gharib, used butterfly nets to collect localPasadenahoneybees and observed their surf-like movements. The researchers used a wire to restrict each bee’s bodily movement, allowing close examination of their wings. They found that the bee bends its wings at a 30-degree angle, pulling up water and producing a forward force. Bees get trapped on the surface because water is roughly three times heavier than air. But that weight helps to push the bee forward when its wings move quickly up and down. It’s a tough exercise for the bees, which the researchers guess could handle about 10 minutes of the activity.The researchers said the surf-like movement hasn’t been documented in other insects and most semiaquatic insects use their legs forpropulsion, which is known as water-walking. It may have evolved in bees, they-predicted.Dr. Roh and Dr. Gharib have imagined many practical applications for bees’ surfing. One plan is to use their observations to design robots able to travel across sky and sea. “This could be useful for search and rescues, or for getting samples of the surface of the ocean, if you can’t send a boat or helicopter,” Dr. Gharib said.8. What does the author intend to show by mentioningNewtonandFranklin?A. Roh’s admiration for them.B. Roh’s chance discovery about bees.C. Their outstanding talent for science.D. Their similar achievements in discovery.9. What plays the most vital role in a bee’s moving forward on water?A. The air weight.B. Its leg extension.C. The water movement.D. Its continuous wingbeat.10. What does the underlined word “propulsion” in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Fast flightB. Driving force.C. Pulling speed.D. Explosive power.11. What does the text mainly tell us?A. Honeybees can surf to safety.B. Bees help scientists make inventions.C. Insects can adapt to the environment.D. Nature is a helpful guide for discovery.DSummer is quickly passing by—but not without the ultimate meteor（流星）shower event!The2021 Perseids Meteor Shower, which is considered to be the best meteor shower of the year, is expected to start lighting up skies on this Wednesday, according to NASA. Known for fireballs, the Perseids typically light up skies on warm summer nights, leaving “long wake（尾迹）of light and color1 behind them.”Under ideal conditions, sky watchers may see approximately 50-100 meteors per hour with each meteor traveling at 37 miles per second. .Because the meteors appear in all parts of the sky, it will be pretty easy to witness the celestial（天上的）event from anywhere in the world. To get the best show, it is advised to view the Perseids from the Northern Hemisphere（半球）during the pre- dawn hours, ideally between 2 a.m. and dawn. In some cases, sky gazers may be able to seemeteors during this shower as early as 9 or 10 p. m.“If it's not cloudy, pick an observing spot away from bright lights, lie on your back, and look up! You don't need any special equipment to view the Perseids—just your eyes,” NASA wrote on their site, adding that telescopes or binoculars are not recommended due to their small fields of view.Remember to let your eyes become adjusted to the dark. Try to stay off of your phone too, as looking at devices with bright screens will negatively affect your night vision and thus reduce the number of meteors you see!For those who may be unable to view the Perseids in person, a live broadcast will be streaming from NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, starting around 8 p. m. on Aug. 11 and continuing through sunrise on Aug. 12.12. What can we learn about the Perseids Meteor Shower?A. It will be the best meteor shower in history.B. The ultimate shower only happens on this Wednesday.C. We can observe 50- 100 meteors per hour in any place.D. The Meteors usually have long and bright trails behind them.13. Which of the following may be the best time to view the shower?A. At 4 a. m. on the Northern Hemisphere.B. At 2 p. m. on the Northern Hemisphere.C. At sunrise on the Southern Hemisphere.D. At dawn on the Southern Hemisphere.14. What can be inferred about the observation of Meteors?A. If you use a telescope, you will see more meteors.B. You can use smartphones to record the grand scene.C. The brighter the moon is, the more meteors you can see. .D. Bright lights will reduce the visibility of meteors.15. If you are not available to watch the Perseids personally, you can ________.A. browse the unofficial website of NASAB. watch a video recorded by a flight centerC. stream a live show on Aug. 11 nightD. use special devices to connect with the shower第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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。

Devon Gallagher, a college graduate from Philadelphia, wants the world to know exactly where she’s been while she’s on her worldwide vacation in a special way. The traveler, who was born with a bone disease, had her right leg amputated (截肢) at the age of four. Although the amputation caused inconvenience for Gallagher early on, she now sees it as nothing short of inspiration for living her best life.
To spread that message， Gallagher has gone to social media， where she shares photos of her travels across the world， but instead of simply using a geo-tag(地理位置标签)， she writes her location on her artificial leg before taking a picture.
Now she has been taking pictures across the Continent， which show her cycling over the canal in Amsterdam， relaxing on a wall overlooking the city of Barcelona，posing with a waffle in Brussels， taking in the beautiful Parthenon temple in Athens and enjoying a river ride in Budapest， all with the well-known locations written on her artificial leg.
“I get a new leg every two years and I can choose the design on it. One day I had a sudden thought to get a chalk-board，” Gallagher said. “My mum and grandmother didn’t like the idea， but my friends thought it was great and told me to go for it， so I did.”
Gallagher said people often stare when she’s writing on her leg， but once she
shares the photos， she receives only positive feedback(反馈)，“My leg hasn’t stopped me from doing anything I’ve wanted to do，” she said. “I don’t know if it’s my determination to prove to myself that I can do it， anyway， I’ve been able to keep up with people at my age and lead a pretty great life.”
Gallagher shows us that you should never let anything stand in the way of your dreams. And if life gives you an artificial leg， make art.

Plants cannot run or hide， so they need other strategies to avoid being eaten. Some curl up their leaves， others produce chemicals to make themselves taste bad if they sense animals drooling on them， chewing them up or laying eggs on them—all signals。
