上海市普陀区2023-2024学年高三上学期期末(一模)教学质量调研英语试卷
上海市普陀区2023-2024学年高三上学期期末(一模)教学质量调研英语试卷学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、语法填空Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word. For the other blanks, fill in each blank with one proper word. Make sure that your answers are grammatically correct.Love from the Apple TreeOnce upon a time, there used to be a tall and big apple tree. A little boy, every day to the tree down, climbed up 1 (pick) apples to eat, and slept in the shade of the tree. He loved the apple tree, and it loved to play with him. The little boy gradually grew up and stopped 2 (come) to play every day. One day he came to the tree, picked all the apples and left happily. Another day, the boy came again, and cut off all the branches, happily away to build a house himself. One summer, the boy came back, cut down her tree trunk, built a boat, 3 (sail) away, and did not come back for a long time. After years, the boy returned at last. He was old and wanted 4 more than a place to rest. “Old root is 5 (suitable) to sit down and rest, come on, sit down and rest with me!” The boy sat down, and the apple tree was so happy that it shed tears.This is a story of everyone. The tree is like our parent. 6 we are young, we love to play with Mom and Dad. Having grown up, we leave them, and only come to them when we need something or when we are in trouble. No matter what, parents will always be there and give everything they 7 to make you happy.8 your parents can give you is not necessarily the best in the world, but they will try their best to give you all, and they are afraid that it is not enough; maybe they never said “I love you”, but love you in their own way for a lifetime, 9 is how most parents around the world show their love. For example, a tired father was watching his two daughters eat fried chicken, but he didn’t order anything, telling his daughters that he was not hungry, 10 more money in his pocket. We grow up to know that the world’s most affectionate lie is what the father and mother said: I do not love to cat it and I am not hungry.二、选词填空Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in each blank with a proper word given in theTextbooks Textbooks represent an 11 billion dollar industry, up from $8 billion in 2014.subject-matter experts through graphic and layout artists to expert reviewers and classroom testers. Textbook publishers connect professors, instructors and students in ways thatconnection happens not only by means of collaborative development, review and testing, butcoming year.It is true that textbook publishers have recently reported losses, largely due to students renting or buying used print textbooks. But this can be 15 up to the excessively high cost of their books—which has increased over 1,000 percent since 1977. A restructuring of the textbook industry may well be in 16 . But this does not mean the end of the textbook itself. While they may not be as dynamic(动态的)as an iPad, textbooks are not 17 or lifeless. From 1800 to the present day, textbooks have done this by raising questions for students to answer. That means students are asked to use their individual experience to come up with answers to 18 questions.Today’s psychology texts, for example, ask: “How much of your personality do you think you 19 ?” while ones in physics say: “How can you predict where the ball you threw will land?” Experts observe that “textbooks come in layers, something like an onion.” For an active learner, choosing a textbook 20 can be an interactive experience. Readers proceed at their own pace.三、完形填空Global surface temperatures last month were 2.25 degrees warmer than the 20th century average of 60.1 degrees, breaking previous records, from August 2016, by more than half arecord to the next,” said Ellen Bartow, a physical scientist with NOAA’S National Centers for Environmental Information.The report 22 what millions of people have experienced in recent months, including record-breaking heatwaves that have touched almost every corner of the globe. Asia, Africa, North America and South America had their warmest August on record, as did the Arctic, Europe and Oceania — a region that 23 Australia - had their second-warmest August on record, the report said.It wasn’t just the land that 24 : August set a record for the highest monthly sea surface temperature abnormally --- 1.85 degrees above average. The warming oceans 25 experiencing its fourth continuous month with the 26 shrinking sea ice, with Antarctica sea ice extent on record. Globally, sea ice extent in August was about 550,000 square miles less than the previous record low, set in August 2019.“We’ve seen unheard-of warmth in the global ocean, and that’s definitely alarming because its effects 27 beyond just the scope of the ocean,” Bartow-Gillies said. “Not only are you 28 marine habitats, but you’re affecting storm creation, you’re creating more instability in some areas, and you’re creating flooding events in other areas. There’s a whole host of 29 that come along with these warmer ocean surface temperatures that we’re seeing.”In fact, the report comes after a series of severe natural 30 that span the globe. This week, a Mediterranean storm caused serious flooding in Libya, killing more than 11,000 people. In Canada, wildfires burned through more than 42 million acres of forests this summer, and several are still burning. 31 global warming was not the singular cause of any of these disasters, heating of the Earth continues to 32 the likelihood of extreme weather events and wildfire worldwide.“The scientific evidence is 33 -- we will continue to see more climate records and more intense and frequent extreme weather events impacting society and ecosystems, until we stop 34 greenhouse gases,” read a statement from Samantha Burgess, deputy director of the European Union’s Copernicus Climate Change Service, which also35 that this summer was the hottest on record.21.A.distance B.jump C.travel D.flight 22.A.confirms B.emerges C.quotes D.argues 23.A.holds B.touches C.surrounds D.includes 24.A.boiled B.cooled C.stricken D.disappeared 25.A.contributed to B.suffered from C.resulted from D.devoted to 26.A.slowest B.lowest C.highest D.fastest 27.A.enlarge B.discharge C.extend D.undertake 28.A.creating B.saving C.remaining D.disturbing 29.A.issues B.debates C.events D.proposals 30.A.floods B.disasters C.storms D.earthquakes 31.A.Though B.Because C.Unless D.When 32.A.damage B.destroy C.decrease D.increase 33.A.irresistible B.unchangeable C.inaccessible D.unbearable 34.A.conveying B.releasing C.relieving D.dismissing 35.A.predicted B.expected C.doubted D.determined四、阅读选择The Adventures of Tom Sawyer changed the course of children’s literature in the United States as well as of American literature generally, presenting the first deeply-felt description of boyhood. Mark Twain published the novel in 1876, which centered on a smart naughty young boy living in a town along the Mississippi River. The Adventures of Tom Sawyer marked the further development of Mark Twain realism.An orphan, Tom Sawyer lived with his Aunt Polly and half brother, Sid, in St. Petersburg, Missouri; the fictional town was based on Hannibal, Missouri. The first few chapters highlighted Tom’s troubled tendencies. He angered his aunt by eating jam, and then he got in a fight with another boy. As punishment for his various misdeeds, Aunt Polly ordered him to whitewash the fence. However, Tom managed to convince other children that whitewashing was fun, and they ended up giving him various items for a turn at the fence. Later in the book Tom went to the cemetery with Huckleberry Finn, a wanderer whose father was a heavy drinker. They came across three grave robbers, including Injun Joe and Dr. Robinson. Thetwo men got into a fight, and Injun Joe murdered the doctor. Although Tom and Huckleberry promised never to tell anyone what they had seen, Tom eventually charged the escaped Indian Joc.At one point, Tom, Huckleberry, and a third boy decided to run away from home and became pirates (海盗). While on an island in the Mississippi River, they discovered that people thought they had died. The three dramatically reappeared during their funeral services. Tom and Huckleberry then decided to look for buried treasure in an abandoned house. The boys were forced to hide when Injun Joe and a partner arrived to bury their own treasure there. However, the two men then came across a gold storage in the house and decided to hide it elsewhere. One night Huck followed them, hoping to find the gold. When he overheard their plan to attack the Widow Douglas, Huck got help, and the crime was prevented. Tom later went on a picnic with his classmates. While exploring a cave, they became lost, and Tom later realized that the gold was likely to be in the cave, and he and Huckleberry discovered it. 36.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A.The story outlines the Adventures of Tom Sawyer.B.The story describes Mark Twain’s childhood.C.The story tells the story of Huckleberry.D.This passage comments on Mark Twain’s novels.37.What is the underlined part of the second paragraph trying to illustrate?A.Tom’s helpfulness.B.Tom’s honesty.C.Tom’sfriendliness.D.Tom’s naughtiness.38.What’s the correct order of the happenings in the third story?a. Huck followed those two.b. Then Tom and Huckleberry found gold.c. Tom and Huckleberry decided to search for buried treasure.d. Tom, Huckleberry and another boy ran away from home.A.a-c-b-d B.d-c-a-b C.b-a-d-c D.c-b-a-d39.In the author’s eyes, what kind of novel is the Adventures of Tom Sawyer?A.An interesting adventure novel.B.The most humorous story of children.C.The greatest works of children’s literature.D.The most popular historical novel.40.If you want to know the life of a cook, which novel would you choose?A.Edge of Here by Kelechi Okafor B.Starter Villain by John ScalziC.Creation Node by Stephen Baxter D.Land of Milk and Honey by C.Pam Zhang41.What does the underlined phrase mean in the first paragraph?A.A non-leading role.B.A viewer.C.A directorD.A writing style.42.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.In Fiction 2, the Solar System is getting colder.B.In Fiction 3, a single teacher inherited his uncle’s business.C.In Fiction 4, the author described events in the remote arca.D.In Fiction 5, you can experience black life through brain chips.In recent years, the International Space Field set off a new round of exploration craze, hoping to further master the space secrets and resources. Countries are busy developing rockets and satellites, developing manned space technology, formulating plans to explore the moon and Mars, and conquering space “One step ahead?”.When engineers develop a spacecraft, they ask a few key questions that guide their process, says David Klaus, a professor of aerospace engineering at the University of Colorado Boulder, who studies risk assessment and human spaceflight. They are, he explains, “What do we want to do? What does it take to do it? What can go wrong? And what can we do to reduce the chance of the bad things going wrong?” These questions seem simple enough, but the answers are essential.When NASA, SpaceX, Blue Origin or anyone else considers sending humans into space, the vehicle they build must do three things. First, it has to accommodate the crew members by meeting their basic needs such as oxygen, food and water. Second, it should allow them to accomplish mission objectives. Lastly, it must protect the people onboard and on the ground from the risks of spaceflight and reentry. Sometimes meeting one need introduces new risks. The crew needs to breathe, of course, but it was high-pressure tanks of liquid oxygen that caused an explosion on Apollo 13, and it was the fuel powering an oxygen generator that sparked a fire onboard the Mir space station in 1997.Not only do astronauts float through a near vacuum (真空) filled with radiation, but in low-Earth orbit, where the International Space Station (ISS) operates, crews have to deal with a growing cloud of debris (碎片) circling Earth, which are usually from old satellites. The ISS’s debris protective covering can absorb impacts from particles smaller than half an inch, but between 1999 and 2022, the station had to fire pushers 32 times to avoid contact with larger objects. A single hit would be dangerous; at speeds of 17,500 miles per hour, even something the size of a softball can cause severe damage.What is the point of looking decades into space and struggling to explore the vastness of the universe? The development of the space industry has brought humans many benefits, the most important of which is the spread of information. The cell phone signal and TV signal people use now are all benefiting from the development of the space industry. The ultimate goal of mankind is to go deeper into space, and to explore more unknown worlds, that is, the Moon, Mars and beyond, and what humanity is eager to achieve is a common home of freedom and equality.43.Why did the writer mention the explosion on Apollo 13 in Paragraph 3 and the fire onboard the Mir space station?A.To explain the high risks of the space industry.B.To show the disadvantages of the space travel.C.To prove the unexpected risks of the spaceflight process.D.To describe the new risks involved in meeting the requirements.44.What is the main idea of the fourth paragraph?A.The space environment itself piles on danger.B.Any misstep on a space mission is fatal.C.It is very difficult to complete the space mission.D.Space engineers work hard to clean up space debris.45.What is the ultimate goal of human exploration of space?A.More unknown planets and stars.B.Freedom and equality of human beings.C.More protection against human diseases.D.Space secrets and endless resources. 46.What does the underlined phrase in the last paragraph mean?A.Studying space for countless years.B.Living in space for many years.C.Exploring space for some ten years.D.Observing space for several ten years.Is Human Brain Too Full?The brain is a seemingly endless library, whose shelves house our most precious memories as well as our lifetime’s knowledge. But is there a point where it reaches capacity? The answer is no, because brains are more complicated than that. Instead of just crowding in, old information is sometimes pushed out of the brain for new memories to form. Previous behavioral studies have shown that learning new information can lead to forgetting. 47 In daily life, forgetting actually has clear advantages. Imagine, for instance, that you lost your bank card. The new card you receive will come with a new personal identification number (PIN). Each time you remember the new PIN, you gradually forget the old one. 48 And most of us may sometimes feel the frustration of having old memories interfere with new, relevant memories. Consider trying to remember where you parked your car in the same car park you were at a week earlier. This type of memory (where you are trying to remember new, but similar information) is particularly vulnerable to interference.49 When we search information, both relevant and irrelevant information will appear. The majority of previous research has focused on how we learn and remember new information. But current studies are beginning to place greater emphasis on the conditions under which we forget, as its importance begins to be more appreciated.A very small number of people are able to remember almost every detail of their life.50 In a sense, forgetting is how our brains categorize memories, so the most relevant memories are ready to be taken out. Normal forgetting may even be a safety mechanism to ensure our brain doesn’t become too full.A.While it may sound like an advantage to many, people with this rare condition often find their unusual ability stressful.B.But in a new study researchers demonstrated for the first time how this effect occursin the brain.C.In the future, with the deepening of brain science research, human beings will eventually unlock the secrets of the brain.D.This process improves access to relevant information, without old memories interfering.E.When we obtain new information, the brain automatically attempts to make it into existing information by forming associations.F.The outside world is a judgment of the brain, but humans just don’t realize it.五、书面表达51.Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.ChatGPT Helps People a LotIn real life, robot customer service in various applications are broadly similar to ChatGPT’s Al products. It is ChatGPT’s ability to learn the most with the highest level of intelligence that has made it a global hit. At the end of November 2022, AI research lab OpenAI launched AI chat software ChatGPT. So what exactly can ChatGPT do, and how can it help us ordinary people?First, chat with ChatGPT as if it were your friend when you’re bored, and it will constantly revise its parameters (参数) and behavior with your advice and guidance. So the more you talk to it, the more it knows what you want, and the more it responds to you. Take travel as an example. While there are a lot of travel recommendation sites out there right now, they can’t be customized to the individual, but you can ask ChatGPT for very specific information to get suggestions.Second, ChatGPT can be used when you want to create content but lack ideas. It can open your mind to ideas as well as create ideas for you. Children in the growth always like to listen to parents tell new stories, and story-telling gives a lot of parents a headache. What should we do when we run out of storybooks? ChatGPT is a great story generator, which generates a whole new story, as many as you want, based on the themes and characters you provide. It’s perfect.Third, let ChatGPT help you out when you’re not sure how to get started with a paper, oran article. Of course, it doesn’t always provide the right content, so we can learn from its framework, and it’s much easier to fill in the content from there. Enter information about the type, title, column name, data, and so on, and ChatGPT will generate the table with one click. You can add columns and rows and do in-table calculations.According to ChatGPT’s own answer, it’s just an unconscious computer program. It can carry on self-active learning and realize task transfer under the regular instruction. Docs the answer ChatGPT gives you have to be the right answer? For conscious humans, it might be better to pick from all the possible answers.___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ ____________________六、翻译52.网络社交并不能代替现实生活。

Her life and work experiences.B . Her specialty in animated(动画)pictures.C . Her success in becoming a botanical scientist.D . Her interest in animals in childhood alone.(2)What does the word “frustrated” in the third paragraph mean?A . disappointed.B . devoted.C . motivated.D . inspired.(3)What is Beatrix Potter?A . A botanist and artist.B . An extremely important farmer and successful scientist.C . A writer,conservationist and farmer.D . An artistic director.(4)Why does the author write the article?A . In celebration of Potter’s 150th birthday.B . In honour of Potter’s new contributions.C . In praise of Potter’s spirit of selflessness.D . In support of Potter’s book promotions.4. 阅读理解All over the world mothers and fathers teach their children manners. Other children may have manners that are not like yours. There are all kinds of manners.Many years ago, children who had good manners were seen and not heard. They kept quiet if grown-ups were talking. Today, well-manneredchildren have more freedom.Sometimes good manners in one place are bad manners in other places. Suppose you are a visitor in the land of Mongolia. Some friends ask you to eat with them. What kind of manners do they want you to have? They want you to give a loud “burp” after you finish eating. Burping would show that you like your food. In some countries, if you give a loud burp, you are told to say “Excuse me, please.” In many places people like to eat together. But in some parts of Polynesia it is bad manners to be seen eating at all. People show good manners by turning their backs on others while they eat. What are manners like in an East African town? The people try not to see you. They are being polite. You may see a friend. He may not see you at all. If you are polite, you will sit down beside him. You will wait until he finishes what he is doing. Then he will talk to you. Suppose you visit a friend in Arabia. You should walk behind the other tents until you come to his tent. If you pass in front of the other tents, you will be asked into each one. The people will ask you to eat with them. And it is bad manners if you say no.Manners are different all over the world. But it is good to know that all manners begin in the same way. People need ways to show that they want to be friends.(1)How did polite children behave?A . By looking into adults’ eyes while talkingB . By keeping silent while adults were talkingC . By slipping into the house without being heardD . By not opening their mouths until spoken to(2)Which custom should we follow in order to look well-mannered?A . Saying “Excuse me” on burping in MongoliaB . Inviting guests to dinner together in PolynesiaC . Talking with a friend before he completes things in East AfricaD . Accepting an eating invitation in Arabia (3)What can we infer from the text?A . Hear much, speak littleB . Love me, love my dogC . When in Rome do as the Romans doD . Do what you ought to and come what can5. 阅读理解Lying alongside mountains of smelly garbage under the South American sun, Cateura is a long way from the conservatories of Prague or Vienna. Yet the township, which grew out of Paraguay’s largest dump, is gaining a reputation as a hothouse for musical talent and for its youth orchestra that plays instruments made from garbage. “The world sends us g arbage. We send back music,” says Favio Chavez, leader of the “Recycled Orchestra,” during a recent visit by the group to Los Angeles. Orchestra members, poor children from Cateura, play violins fashioned from oven trays and guitars made from dessert dishes. The orchestra provides the youngsters an outlet and an escape, a chance to go beyond the mess of their slum through the music of Mozart, and even Sinatra. “In the beginning, it was difficult to play,” says the l0-year-old violinist Celeste Fleitas.” But Favio helped me learn over time. From Favio, I have learned to be more responsible and value the things I have.”The destination for more than 1,500 tons of waste each day, thecommunity has no safe drinking water and little access to electricity or sanitation. Illiteracy is severe, and the children of the township often fall into drugs, violence and crimes.Favio Chavez, a musical talent, came to Cateura as an environmental technician in 2006 and started a youth music school. He knew shop-bought instruments were beyond the means of villagers whose sheds are worth less than a violin, so he approached a carpenter to make some out of waste from the dump.The orchestra caught the eye of Paraguayan filmmaker Alejandra Amarilla. She uploaded a short piece of the orchestra to YouTube in 2012, hoping to secure crowdfunding for what would become Landfill Harmonic, a documentary released across the United States this month and promoting the youngsters on a tour of the world’s music halls later on.(1)What is the best title of the text?A . Youngsters carry tunes from garbage to victoryB . A music talent hit the road to the world stageC . A town for music fansD . An orchestra on a global tour(2)What do we know about Cateura?A . It has raised people’s awareness of recycling trashB . It has caught more attention through the orchestraC . It recycles more than 1,500 tons of rubbish per dayD . It provides its children with better schooling conditions (3)Why did Alejandra Amarilla upload a piece of the orchestra to YouTube?A . To assist the youngsters with a world tourB . To collect funding for a documentaryC . T o organize carpenters to make instrumentsD . To catch the eye of the Paraguay government(4)What can we learn from Favio Chavez?A . To work in a team weighs moreB . To recycle things is to conserve thingsC . To be creative is a quality of a leaderD . To own nothing is no excuse to do nothing三、七选五6. 任务型阅读Choosing the right college for you is not so easy. You should have a general idea of what y ou want and don’t want.
