AIcebreaker Activities for High School StudentsThrown into a group of teenagers who are total strangers? Whether you’re a teacher, or a teen trying to make new friends, these three icebreaker activities are sure to get students feeling more comfortable in a new situation. As we know, it’s easy for students to tune out (思想开小差) or get bored sitting down, so keep everyone moving and engaged with these ideas.Line it UpSee how fast your group can get into an alphabetical (按字母顺序的) line based on their names. Better yet, divide into boys vs girls or two randomly assigned groups and race to see which group can get organized first. Move If You ...Have your students sit in a large circle with one person in the middle. The middle person calls out for a certain group of people to move—for example, “Move if you have brown hair” or “Move if you have been to another country.” If the students fit the criteria (标准), they must run to a new seat in the circle. The one student left standing is in the middle for the next round.Race for the TruthHave your students stand on the starting line while you list general facts. (For example, I have a dog.) If the stated fact is true for any of the students, those students must move forward a step. Whoever crosses the finish line first wins!By using just a few of these icebreakers, you’re sure to have a close group within minutes!1. What is the purpose of the three activities?A. To enhance understanding.B. To help students sleep well.C. To improve learning ability.2. Which activity helps to remember each other’s name?A. Line it Up.B. Move if You ....C. Race for the Truth.3. Who is the text written for?A. Students.B. Teachers.C. Friends.BSurgery is scary enough for any of us, but when you are a child, and everyone is bigger than you, it can feel like a frightening dream. That’s why it matters so much what happens before, during and after treatment— especially when what happens includes a bit of humor.Modern medicine relieves more pain and suffering for children than ever in world history—everything from removing an appendix (阑尾), to fixing broken bones, or to cancer. Without these fixes, children can suffer socially and emotionally as well as physically. But it’s hard for a child to understand the long-term benefits of surgery when faced with bright lights and unfamiliar faces.To help children find the courage to face these fears, a doctor in Wuhan, China has special scrubs (外科手术服) made for his little patients that change them from vulnerable humans to brave superheroes. He carries the patients through the hallway on his shoulder as they reach out their fist forward, parting the clouds of anxiety and flying toward a better life, one that gives them confidence that they can overcome challenges. Not surprisingly, the little superheroes also give their parents the courage to bear the wait while they are in the operating room.Even as modern medicine improves in surprising ways, we humans will always need each other. Laughter is the best medicine. As Tang Jieshun, the doctor says, “Laughter helps the body fight off disease, cancer cells as well as infections. Being happy is the best cure of all diseases!”4. How do children feel when facing surgeries according to the writer?A. Curious.B. Humorous.C. Scared.5. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “vulnerable” in Paragraph 3?A. Weak.B. Curable.C. Believable.6. What does Tang Jieshun do for children needing a surgery?A. Relieve their pain skillfully.B. Create a relaxing atmosphere.C. Dress himself up as a superhero.7. What can be the best title of the text?A. Being Happy Is the Best Cure of All Diseases EverB. Modern Medicine Takes Fear out of Surgery for ChildrenC. Doctor Helps Children Face Hospital Fear in a Fancy WayCAny parent who’s tried to drag a child or teen away from a smartphone knows how challenging it can be to separate kids from social media, messaging apps, or online games and videos. Kids lack self-control over their smartphone use, but simply taking away the device can often backfire (产生事与愿违的不良后果), creating anxiety and stress in your child. Instead, there are plenty of other ways to help your child find a healthier balance.Be a good role model. Children tend to imitate (模仿), so it’s important for you to manage your own smartphone. It’s no good asking your child to unplug (暂时克制不用电子设备) at the dinner table while you’re staring at your own phone. Don’t let your own smartphone ruin your parent-child interactions.Talk to your child about potential issues. Smartphone overuse can be the sign of deeper problems. Is your child having problems fitting in(适应)? Has there been a recent major change, like a move or divorce, which is causing stress? Is your child suffering from other issues at school or home?Get help. Teenagers often go against their parents, but if they hear the same information from a different authority person, they may be more likely to listen. Try a sports coach, doctor, or respected family friend. Don’t be afraid to seek professional advice if you are concerned about your child’s smartphone use.8. Which can best describe the work of stopping kids from overusing smartphones?A. Meaningless.B. Difficult.C. Different.9. Why do parents need to set an example for children?A. Smartphones are designed for parents.B. Parents are more addicted to smartphones.C. Children like modeling after their parents.10. Children who overuse phones are likely that _______.A. they need an example to followB. they are suffering some problemsC. they have no other hobbies or interests11. From which is the text probably taken?A. A newspaper.B. A book review.C. A parenting magazine.DWhen HUAWEI Mate 60 was released, one of its key talking points was its satellite connectivity (连接). In case of an emergency, the Mate 60 series could connect to a low-orbit satellite and send an SOS message, even when there is absolutely no cell signal on the phone. But what exactly is satellite connectivity, and how does it work on HUAWEI phones? We bring you the answer.An ordinary cell phone mainly connects to a cell tower on land. The closer you are to the cell tower, the better the network reception on your cell phone. When you move from one place to another, your phone switches cell towers to get connected to the closest cell tower. However, your phone will lose signal if a cell tower is not nearby. You will not see any network connection on your phone, you will not receive any network services, you will not be able to receive any calls nor send any messages, and you will not be able to access the Internet.This is where satellite connectivity become useful. Instead of connecting to cell towers on the ground, satellite phones connect to satellites that orbit the Earth. The satellite phone does require an open sky and a line of sight between the phone and the satellite. But effectively, this erases the requirement of building a dense mesh (网) of cell phone towers to promise a base level of network connectivity.Building cell towers is not possible across the entire surface of the Earth. And since satellite phones do not require land-based cell towers, they remain operational during natural disasters or wars that affect the cell tower mesh. This makes satellite phones serve a crucial need that ordinary cell phones cannot.12. Why is HUAWEI Mate 60 mentioned in Paragraph 1?A. To express the writer’s feeling.B. To lead in the topic of the text.C. To sing high praise for HUAWEI.13. What can be inferred about HUAWEI Mate 60 series?A. They are the best seller around the world.B. They haven’t caused international concern.C. They are equipped with satellite connectivity.14. What can we know about ordinary cell phones?A. They are not as smart as satellite phones.B. They are not so reliable as satellite phones.C. They do not depend on cell towels to function.15. How is the text developed?A. By comparing facts.B. By listing some data.C. By explaining cause and effect.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

河南省鹤壁市高中2022-2023学年高三上学期第三次模拟考试英语试卷含答案

鹤壁市高中2023届第三次模拟考试英语试卷命题人:第一部分阅读理解（共两节, 满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分, 满分30分）阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中, 选出最佳选项。

AHave you ever been really hungry, but there wasn’t much to eat in your kitchen? Did you throw together a bunch of stuff you had on hand and were pleasantly surprised when it tasted good? You aren’t alone. Some of our favorite foods were created by accident. Here’s a sample menu of some familiar foods that never would have happened if someone hadn’t created them by mistake.POTATO CHIPSOne of the world’s favorite snacks is the result of a complaint. In 1853, a man was eating dinner at Moon’s Lake House in Saratoga Springs, New York. He ordered fried potatoes, a popular side dish. But when they came out of the kitchen, he didn’t think they were crispy enough. He sent them back to the kitchen, where Chef George Crum was so angry at having his cooking criticized that he sliced the potatoes really thin, put lots of salt on them, and fried them. Not only did the diner love them, but everyone else did, too. They soon became a specialty of the restaurant.TOFUTofu, or bean curd, is made by curdling (使凝结) fresh soya milk, pressing it into a solid block, and then cooling it. Tofu was accidentally invented in China 2,000 years ago, when a cook added seaweed to soya milk, which made it curdle. This is the same process that is used for making cheese. Like cheese, Tofu is a great example of how really messing up a recipe can create something unexpectedly good.CHEESE PUFFSDid you ever wonder who thought up cheese puffs? The company that invented them wasn’t even trying to make food for people. It was trying to make animal feed. In the 1930s, the Flakall Company of Wisconsin made animal food from small, flaked pieces of grain. One day, an employee, Edward Wilson, watched workers pouring cornmeal (谷粉) into the flaking machine, wetting it to keep it from clogging (堵塞). Because the machine was very hot, the wet cornmeal came out of it in puffy ribbons that hardened when they hit the air. Wilson took some of the ribbons home, added oil and flavoring to them, and voila! Cheese puffs!1. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Seaweed is also used for making cheese.B. Chef George Crum didn’t like to criticize others’ cooking.C. Hot wet cornmeal hardened when they hit the air.D. Bean curd dates back 2000 years in China .2. What do the three foods have in common?A. They are the results of complaints.B. They were not created on purpose.C. They weren’t originally made for people.D. They are all popular throughout the world.3. What’s the purpose of the text?A. To compare the features of some foods.B. To inform readers of some foods.C. To recommend some foods .D. To introduce the origins of some foods.BGifts and packaging play a crucial role in providing an income and educating visitors.After enjoying a museum or art gallery, Milly Zi, a management adviser in Beijing, usually visits the souvenir shop to buy something to remember the visit. About a decade ago, Zi was attracted by a roll of sticky tape in Taipei Palace Museum. The tape, designed in red, yellow and white, had four Chinese characters making a phrase: zhen zhi dao le—a sentence of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, meaning "I am aware." "The product has history and culture in it," Zi said, "And it has aroused my interest to learn more about the history behind them."The latest digital technology is also helping museums to be more creative. In October 2021, the Hubei Provincial Museum released 10,000 digital copies of the sword of Gou Jian, king of the state of Yue during the Warring States period, a famous cultural relic on display in the museum. Its popularity can be gauged by how quickly it sold out. "All the copies were sold in just three seconds,"said Wang Xianfu, deputy head of the museum.Digital collections go beyond the restrictions of time and space, making museums more open, interesting and modern. "It's a new experience, a combination of civilization and modern high-tech." Wang said."The popularity of digital cultural relics has resulted in more museums exploring the concept. Digitized cultural relics are a new form of cultural creative products, which can be sold, purchased, collected and used." MaXiaoli said, head of the museum in Henan."I think museums have two functions—to remember and to spread Chinese culture," said YuLin, manager of the Development Department at Ant Group. "I hope new technologies will promote Chinese culture in a way the younger generation is happy to accept."4. Why did the tape attract Milly Zi?A.It was used by Kangxi.B. It had a long history.C.It was creatively designed.D. It was a digital cultural relic.5. What does the underlined word "gauged" in paragraph 3 mean?A. Judged.B.Guarded.C. Developed.D.Gained.6. Why does the author mention the digital products of Gou Jian Sword?A. To emphasize the importance of Chinese cultural relics.B. To make an advertisement for Hubei Provincial Museum.C. To illustrate a modern technology to make museums' work effective.D. To popularize the ancient Chinese civilizations of Warring States period.7. What should be done nowadays to make museums more attractive?A. Open more souvenir shops.B. Produce more cultural gifts.C. Go digitized with modern technology.D. Invite experts to give lectures on Chinese history.CWhen faced with the decision to get out of bed or have a few more minutes of sleep, which do you choose? Believe it or not, that decision could make a world of difference in the rest of your day.About 85 percent of Americans use an alarm clock to wake up in the mornings, according to sleep researcher Till Roennenber. And while there are no official numbers onsnoozing（打盹）, a quick survey of social media makes it clear that hitting the snooze button is a popular pastime.As to how the snooze button will affect your day, scientists have mixed opinions. Some scientists think people who hit the snooze button in the mornings are actually clever, creative and happy while some said that hitting the snooze button will ruin your life, or at the very least your day. "I feel that hitting the snooze button has got to be one of the worst things that ever happened to human sleep, " researcher Jonathan Horowitz said.“The chances of you 'snoozing' and actually experiencing a meaningful rest are close to zero. ”According to some sleep experts, when hitting the snooze button, you are in fact confusing your body and mind, and throwing yourself into a deep state of being sleepy. The body needs some time to wake up, so, when returning to what will be a light sleep for a brief period of time, you are putting your body back into a sleep mode before waking it again. At that point your body won't know what it wants, resulting in a sort of half awaken state.If you really want to take advantage of an alarm clock, the key is to form a healthy sleep cycle. Focus your efforts on getting enough sleep each night and waking up at the same time each day so that when your alarm goes off you feel rested.8. What can we infer about hitting the snooze button from Paragraph 2?A. People do it just for fun.B. It is a common practice.C. People take it seriously.D. It is a wise choice.9. What do some sleep experts think of hitting the snooze button?A. It brings people a meaningful rest.B. It makes people become lazy.C. It gives us a sense of satisfaction.D. It affects our body and mind.10. What is the author's suggestion according to the last paragraph?A. Forming a good sleep habit.B. Trying to relax ourselves.C. Taking another light sleep.D. Using an extra alarm.11. What is the best title for the text?A. The snooze button and people s characterB. Ways to keep refreshed in the morningC. Should you rely on the snooze button?D. How to avoid the light sleep mode?DBeing highly connected to a strong social network has its benefits. Now a new study is showing the same goes for trees, thanks to their underground neighbors. The study is the first to show that the growth of adult trees is linked to their participation in fungal (真菌) networks living in the forest soil. Though past research has focused on young trees, these findings give new insight into the importance of fungal networks to older trees — which are more environmentally beneficial for functions like capturing carbon.“Large trees make up the main part of the forest, so they drive what the forest is doing,” said researcher Joseph Birch, who led the study. When they live in the forest soil, fungal networks act as a sort of highway, allowing water, nutrients and compounds to flow back and forth among the trees. The network also helps nutrients flow to resource-limited trees like family units that support one another in times of stress.Cores taken from 350 Douglas firs (花旗松) showed that annual tree ring growth was related to the extent of fungal connections a tree had with other trees. They had much higher growth than those that had only a few connections. The research also showed that trees with more connections to many unique fungi had much greater growth than those with only one or two connections. “If you have this network that is helping trees grow faster, that helps capture more carbon year after year. These networks may help trees grow more steadily even as conditions become more stressful, and could even help protect them against death.” said Birch.Birch hopes his findings lead to further studies in different kinds of forests in other geographical areas, because it’s likely that the connections among trees change from year to year. He said, “Knowing whether fungal networks are operating the same way in other tree species could inform how we reforest areas after harvesting them, and inform how we plant trees to preserve these networks.”12. In what way do the new findings differ from the previous ones?A. They reveal the value of fungal networks to adult trees.B. They clarify misunderstandings of fungal networks.C. They demonstrate a new way to capture carbon.D. They confirm the benefits of fungal networks.13. How do fungal networks help trees?A. By acting as the center of family units.B. By maintaining the balance of resources.C. By fighting against diseases.D. By bettering forest soil conditions.14. What does the underlined “those” refer to in Paragraph 3?A. Tree rings.B. Cores from Douglas firs.C. Douglas firs.D. Fungal networks.15. What can be inferred from what Joseph Birch has put?A. The fungal networks support one another in times of stress.B. The fungal networks enable us to know more about reforestation.C. The findings can apply to different kinds of forests in other geographical areas.D. The fungal networks will help trees grow more steadily if conditions become more stressful.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。

A piece of medical instructions.BWatford and her family have lived in Curtis Bay, Baltimore for generations. Her community has faced environmental injustice. Heavy industries continued to move in her community. As a result, her neighbors have had to live with serious respiratory（呼吸的）problems.When she knew a plan to build the nation’s largest trash-burning incinerator（焚化炉）less than a mile away from her high school, she realized she had to take action. The incinerator was being sold wrongly as clean, renewable energy equipment but actually it would be a source of brain-damaging chemicals and would release 200 million tons of greenhouse gases per year, both worse than coal burning. Watford felt she had a responsibility to warn her community to work together to shut this plant down.She co-founded Free Your V oice（FYV）, a 10-person student organization devoted to community rights and social justice. Together, they decided to start a campaign to take down Energy Answers, the incinerator’s developer. They went door-to-door talking to neighbors and organizing protests.When it was discovered that Baltimore City Public Schools（BCPS）was going to be a customer of Energy Answers, the organization fought with the board and presented their case, urging BCPS to withdraw from the project. BCPS was convinced to cancel their contract, which in turn inspired 22 other customers to do the same. Without any financial gain, Energy Answers had no market to move forward with its plan.Watford continues to work with Curtis Bay residents toward fair development.

Sick people are isolated, diseased animals are killed and fields of infected crops are fired up. Reviving（复活）an ancient virus would surely be a disaster.But a new study led by Fiddamanfrom Oxford, challenges this conventional wisdom. It shows how the revival of an ancient virus can unlock the secrets of its evolution.The virus in the study is Marek’s disease virus（MDV）, killing more than 90% of chickens. Yet when it was discovered in 1907, MDV rarely caused death.Dr Fiddaman wondered whether its new-found virulence（毒性）was a result of large structural changes. To find out, he and his colleagues got their hands on nearly 1,000 chicken bones from ancient times across Europe and Asia, some of them up to 2000 years old. Sections of DNA from these remains were mapped on to the ones of today’s virus.As the authors pieced together the sets of genes of ancient MDV, however, they noticed that the genes were arranged identically to those in modern species. It suggests that the increased virulence resulted not from large structural changes, but from point mutations（突变）. In particular, changes had occurred in the arrangement of a gene called MEQ, which has an essential role in tumour（肿瘤）formation.This discovery suggests that the ancient MDV may not have been able to cause tumours. To test this assumption, Dr Fiddaman followed up with a daring experiment. He made the ancient form of the MEQ gene and shoot it into living chicken cells. It did not turn on any of the genes associated with tumour formation. In comparison, a modern MEQ gene quickly showed its tendency to cause tumours.By combining ancient and modern genetic biology, the methods pioneered in the paper reveal how, and more importantly why, any virus mutates. That could help scientists tackle other viruses that pull on the purse-strings of farmers —by designing new vaccines（疫苗）, for instance— or even to work out how to prevent another global pandemic.8. What is widely acknowledged about the revival of an ancient virus?A. It is a challenging task.B. It reveals the virus evolution.C. It means a disaster for humans.D. It helps people fight diseases.9. What caused the virulence change of MDV?A. Point mutations in MEQ.B. The occurrance of a new gene.C. The reproduction of the ancient MDV.D. Large structural changes in modern species.10. How did Dr Fiddaman test the assumption?A. By investigating a typical case.B. By conducting a field survey.C. By studying the related theories.D. By doing a comparative experiment.11. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Viruses weaken gradually when they mutate.B. The finding throws light on handling other viruses.C. A global pandemic requires a world effort to end it.D. Farmers will face more complex challenges than before.DWhen American anthropologist Colin Turnbull published The Mountain People in 1972, he referred to his subjects —a Ugandan group called the Ik — as “the loveless people.” After two years of observations, he decided that they reflected humanity’s basic instincts（本能）: cheat, thievery, and pitilessness. But when Athena Aktipis and her colleagues from the Human Generosity Project took a deeper look, they identified a community that shared everything. “Turnbull had visited Uganda during a disastrous famine（饥荒）. All he saw is what happens when people are starving.” says Aktipis. But her team revealed that despite living under pressure, the Ik placed a high value on helping one another when they could.Aktipis believes that altruism is more common and beneficial than evolutionary social science has long thought. “It was assumed that people are designed to only do things to help themselves or their relatives.” she says. By studying the unique, selfless practices that helped nine communities across the world to continue to exist, the experts from the Project are looking to show that we are indeed capable of widespread cooperation.The Maasai people in Kenya provide one of the project’s main points. They rely on two-way friendships for resources like food or water when they’re in need, without expecting any repayment. Also, a world away, in New Mexico, while folks often help transport cattle and receive support in return, they will assist without repayment if someone faces difficulties, such as an injury or the death of a loved one.Aktipis believes theoretical frameworks she’s perfected through studying these groups can apply broadly to any interdependent systems. Her big goal is to design social-service systems that support everyone. Take market -based insurance in the United States as an example: It’s priced based on individual risk factors such as health histories and where people live, which means millions of Americans can’t afford it. But in a system built on neighboring, pooled costs（合并成本）would level the burden during collective hardship like natural disasters and pandemics.12. What did Turnbull think of the Ik people?A. Heartless.B. Helpful.C. Restless.D. Generous.13. What does the underlined word “altruism” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Trying to be strong and tough to survive.B. Making full use of the surrounding resources.C. Being devoted to themselves or their relatives.D. Caring about the needs and happiness of others.14. What does paragraph 3 intend to convey?A. Friendships guarantee a well-being life.B. Folks assist each other to get support.C. Cooperation is a good and natural instinct.D. People tend to provide resources for free.15. How does Aktipis intend to apply her findings?A. By designing a policy for public health.B. By monitoring individual health histories.C. By creating a system against collective hardship.D. By lowering insurance prices for individual victims.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

The European ship was first observed in 2009, when a sonar(声呐) exploration by the Swedish Maritime Administration (SMA) indicated a large object in the area. However, it was not until early 2019 that researchers from Soton and MMT found evidence of the sunken ship using underwater robotic cameras.When the team observed the pictures of the 60-foot-long shipwreck, they were surprised to discover it was 99 percent complete. The scientists considered that the wreck's good condition is due to its place in the Baltic Seabed, where the oxygen levels are low. Oxygen is key to most ocean life's survival. Therefore, such an environment where the shipwreck stays reduces or completely removes the creatures that feed on rotting wood.So although this ship is contemporary to the times of Christopher Columbus, it shows a remarkable level of preservation after 500 years at the bottom of the sea. Dr. Pacheco-Ruiz, who led the MMT effort, said,“It's almost like it sank yesterday. It's a truly astonishing sight."The scientists are unsure what let the ship sink. However, the ship's guns, which are in their"ready to fire" positions, indicate it may have been the victim of a naval battle. Since the ship dates back to the early 16th century, historians predict it may have sunk during Sweden's three year independence war with its Danish rulers between 1521 and 1523. Alternatively, it could also have been involved in the border dispute (争端) between Russia and Sweden from 1554 to 1557.The ship is by far the best-preserved shipwreck ever found from the Age of Exploration, when Europeans explored the world by sea.What's more exciting is that the ship is similar to the Pinta and La Nina, which Comlubus famously sailed toward North America. The scientists, who continue to observe the shipwreck hope the boat's design will expose some of the technologies available to the Italian explorer during his 1492 voyage of discovery.31．What scientific achievement did Soton 's and MMT' s researchers make?A．Discovering a wreck using sonar.B．Getting the wreck out or icy water.C．Identifying the object found by SMA．D．Making the ancient wreck well preserved.32．What can we learn about the place of the sunken ship?A．It is generally unfit for creatures to live in.B．It is tough for scientists to do research.C．It contains too many harmful gases.D．It is filled with rotting wood.33．Dr. Pacheco-Ruiz's words reflected_________.A．his curiosity about the time when the ship sankB．his amazement at the ship's previous grandnessC．his surprise at the wreck's well-preserved conditionD．his shock at the sinking of the great European ship34．What's Paragraph 4 mainly about?A．The damage to the ship.B．The causes of the ship's sinking.C．The construction of the ship.D．The possible function of the ship. 35．What will the scientists' following research probably focus on?A．Recovering the ancient ships, the Pinta and La Nina.B．Finding every aspect of life in the Age of Exploration.C．Exploring the role the ship played in Columbus' exploration.D．Leaning about Columbus' voyage according to the ship's design.阅读下列短文，根据短文内容用英语回答问题。

湖北省普通高中学业水平合格性考试模拟卷（一）本试卷共页46个小题，满分100分，考试时间90分钟。

本试卷由阅读理解、语言知识运用、书面表达三个部分组成。

第一部分阅读理解（共两节，20小题，每小题2分，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和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

A篇We all like fantasy stories, and grow up reading and listening to fantasies. These tales fuel our imaginations, and satisfy our longings for adventures. The most interesting thing about fantasies is that their plots involve magical beasts and heroes，animal creatures talking like humans，and other things we can’t see in real life. Also, fantasies have a distinguished writing style, with freedom of expression.Toy FantasyIn toy fantasy stories, narrators(叙述者)bring their beloved toys to life that can live, talk, think，breathe and behave like human beings. You would see modern toy fantasies in a picture book format. Representative works are A. A. Milne’s Winnie the Pooh and Carlo Collodi’s The Adventures of Pinocchio.Animal FantasyThe animal fantasy tells tales about animals behaving like human beings, experiencing emotions, and having the ability to talk. However, animals in fantasies hold their various animal characteristics, too. Examples include The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame, Charlotte's Web by E. B. White, and The Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter which influences children around the world.Magical FantasyIn a magical fantasy, you see a character having magical powers, or a strange magical object becomes the subject of the story. Stories of this type began widely spreading long ago, including Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and William Steig’s Sylvester and the Magic Pebble.Modern FolktalesModern folktales are types of fantasy that narrators tell in a traditional tale accompanying some typicalparts, such as strong conflict, little description of characters, and sometimes magical elements. These tales come before all others and are popular, as authors throughout history, have written them. Hans Christian Andersen has written several tales of this category including The Nightingale, The Emperor’s New Clothes and Thumbelina.1. What is the common feature of the fantasies?A. Their characters are highly popular.B. Their events occur in the unreal world.C. Their writing styles show desires for freedom.D. Their plots encourage people to have adventures.2. Who made a great contribution to the animal fantasy?A. Carlo Collodi.B. Beatrix Potter.C. William Steig.D. Hans Christian Andersen.3. Which type of fantasy has the longest history?A. The toy fantasy.B. The animal fantasy.C. The magical fantasy.D. The modern folktales.B篇One of the easiest ways to stop the spread of disease is to simply wash your hands. Twenty seconds of handwashing with soap and water can reduce illnesses and save lives. But, many people, especially children, do not have good handwashing habits. One problem is that children do not wash their hands often enough or long enough. Children may think that it is a tiresome thing to do.To help handle this problem, two businesswomen from India created a product to turn handwashing into a fun activity. Amanat Anand and Shubham Issar created a tool called SoaPen, aimed at teaching kids good handwashing habits and encouraging kids to wash their hands with soap appropriately and regularly."It’s such a simple habit to do,but the fact is that people aren’t doing it, and it’s resulting in actual deaths — which is shocking. So, we decided to come up with a fun method," said Issar.As the name suggests, SoaPen is a pen made out of soap. The children draw on their hands with the soap pen and then wash the drawing off. If they don’t spend enough time washing it off, the colors remain on the children’s hands. Issar said it makes sure that children take enough time to wash their hands. This may be especially helpful in a classroom. Often a teacher does not have the time to make each child wash his hands properly.Kids actually wash their hands for the proper amount of time because they've drawing on their hands. To obliterate the drawing, they actually wash their hands instead of just going under water and, you know, a one-second wash and off.Good news is that the school children in Mumbai, India, will soon most likely wash their hands after handling a pen. Issar and Anand stated that SoaPen to be created everywhere will help promote good habits through handwashing in the city across the globe.4. Why does SoaPen come into existence?A. To cure kids of some kinds of diseases.B. To teach kids the importance of soap.C. To help kids wash their hands correctly.D. To make money from children consumers.5. Which of the following does Issar agree with?A. Handwashing is anything but little.B. SoaPen is designed for classrooms.C. Some teachers ignore kids' health in school.D. Kids don’t know the right way of handwashing.6. What does "obliterate" underlined in paragraph 5 mean?A. Show.B. Reserve.C. Learn.D. Remove.7. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. SoaPen has become popular worldwide.B. The inventors think SoaPen has a bright future.C. SoaPen has been applied in Mumbai schools.D. Kids' health should be paid more attention to.C篇You’ve likely noticed them by now. School buses are back on the street packed with students. Many of those kids step off the buses with a potential health danger over their shoulder — a backpack filled with homework.Backpacks come in all shapes, sizes and colors. It is a fun way for any girl or boy to express their styles. Some are simple, some covered with cartoon characters, many equipped with special compartments for every tool astudent needs, like pencils, notebooks and books.Yes, they are practical, but a heavy backpack can injure muscles and joints. Wearing a backpack incorrectly can lead to severe back, neck and shoulder pain, as well as posture problems. When a backpack filled with books is placed on a boy or girl’s shoulders incorrectly, the force of the weight can pull the child backward, so the child may bend their hips forward or arch their back.Pay attention to detail when selecting a backpack; choose one that is equipped with a comfortable back, waist and wide shoulder straps. Narrow straps can dig into a child’s shoulders and affect circulation and nerves. The heavy load danger is not just for kids 12 and under. Middle and high school are at risk, too. They are carrying heavier books home daily.Luckily, back pain created by backpacks is preventable. Parents should talk to their kids about lightening the load. You can even use a bathroom scale. The backpack should not weigh more than 10 percent to 15 percent of your child’s weight. If your child weighs 80 pounds, the pack should not weigh more than 8 to 12 pounds. If your child weighs 140 pounds, the pack should not be heavier than 21 pounds. Most importantly, if your child talks about numbness or weakness in the arms or legs, contact a physician.8. What do students’ backpacks reflect according to paragraph 2?A. Their hobbies.B. Their styles.C. Their characters.D. Their needs.9. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?A. Students’ heavy loads.B. Wearing backpacks incorrectly.C. Dangers of heavy backpacks.D. Weight of heavy backpacks.10. Which backpack is more suitable for a child weighing 100 pounds?A. With wide shoulder straps weighing about 10 pounds.B. With narrow shoulder straps weighing 16 pounds.C. With wide shoulder straps weighing 20 pounds.D. With narrow shoulder straps weighing 15 pounds.11. Who are the intended readers of the text?A. Children.B. Doctors.C. Teachers.D. Parents.D篇A city in South Korea, which has the world’s largest number of people using smartphones, has placed flashing lights and laser beams at a road crossing to warn “smartphone zombies” to look up and drivers to slow down, in the hope of preventing accidents.The designers of the system were motivated by growing worry that more pedestrians glued to their phones will become victims in a country that already has some of the highest road death and injury rates among developed countries. State-run Korea Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology (KICT) believes its system of flashing lights at zebra crossings can warn both pedestrians and drivers.In addition to red, yellow and blue LED lights on the pavement, “smombies” - smartphone zombies - will be warned by laser beam projected from power poles and a warning sent to the phones by an app that they are about to step into traffic.“Increasing number of smombie accidents have occurred in pedestrian crossings, so these zombie lights are essential to prevent these pedestrian accidents,” said KICT senior researcher Kim Jong-hoon. Drivers are warned by the flashing lights, which have shown to be effective 83.4 percent of the time in the institute’s tests involving about 1,000 vehicles.In 2017, more than 1,600 pedestrians were killed in auto related accidents, which is about 40 percent of total traffic deaths, according to data from the Traffic Accident Analysis System. For now, the smombie warning system is placed only in Ilsan, a suburban city about 30 km northwest of the capital, Seoul, but is expected to go nationwide, according to the institute.Kim Dan-hee, a 23-year-old resident of Ilsan, welcomed the system, saying she was often too absorbed in her phone to remember to look at traffic. “This flashing light makes me feel safe as it makes me look around again, andI hope that we can have more of these in town,” she said.12. What do the underlined words smartphone zombies in paragraph 1 refer to?A. Drivers driving after drunk.B. Pedestrians buried in their phones.C. Passengers crazy about phones.D. Policemen in charge of traffic.13. What do we know about the warning system?A. It has reduced death rate by 83.4%.B. It has been spread nationwide.C. It gives a warning to the smartphones.D. It is being tried out in many places.14. What was the residents’ attitude to the traffic system?A. Negative.B. Unconcerned.C. Disapproving.D. Favorable.15. What is the best title for the text?A. South Korea Warns Smartphone Zombies of TrafficB. Flashing Lights Are Used to Prevent AccidentsC. Smartphone Zombies Are Causing Traffic AccidentsD. South Korea Uses a New Traffic System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。

江苏省2022-2023学年普通高中学业水平合格性考试模拟(一)英语试卷

2023年江苏省普通高中学业水平合格性考试模拟一英语第一部分单项选择题(共两节，满分70分)第一节阅读理解(共15小题，每小2分，满分30分)George Daniels lives in London. He is a watchmaker. His work continues the tradition of the English watchmakers of the 18th and 19th centuries. Today this tradition is almost dead. Daniels is the only man in the world who designs his own watches makes all the pars himself and then puts them together.A Daniels watch is the product of his hands alone. One of his watches which is now in an American museum took 3500 hours to complete. He usually makes one watch a year. Each one is inscribed (刻) with “Daniels London” and costs about $10,000. Of course these are not ordinary watches—they are very beautiful and will last three centuries.George Daniels has always been attracted by clocks and watches. When he was five he used to take his father’s clock apart and put it back together again. At school he used to repair his teachers watches.He is now internationally famous and many people would like him to make watches for them. But most of them will be disappointed. He chooses his customers very carefully indeed. It must be someone who understands the subject,” he says “not someone who will leave the watch in the drawer and only show it to dinner quests.”1．Who is George Daniels?A．One of the few who repaired watches in the old days.B．The only man who collects old watches in the world.C．One of the few remaining watch designers in the world.D．The only man who designs and makes watches by himself.2．How long can a Daniels watch keep working?A．10,000 hours. B．300 years.C．200 years. D．3,500 hours.3．Which of the following shows Daniels’ early interest in watches?A．He played with his father’s clock.B．He taught people how to repair watches.C．He made a watch for an American museum.D．He made beautiful and long-lasting watches.4．George Daniels makes watches for those who _________.A．can afford his watches B．may want to show them to others C．appreciate his watches D．enjoy his watch-making process5．What do we know about Daniels watches?A．Only a few people like them.B．They are kept in a museum.C．Only a few people can get them.D．They have a history of over 200 years.A few years ago, I realized that I had a fear of heights. Sometimes I would feel uncomfortable if I looked down from somewhere high and the higher I got, the worse I felt. However, there were some things that made me nervous when I looked up at them—such as drop towers.About a month ago, my family and I went on a trip to Marineland—an amusement park with a sea animal theme. One of Marineland's attractions is a huge drop tower called the "Sky Screamer". My dad wanted to ride it, and he wanted to take me with him. He kept nagging me, and I finally gave in, because I wanted to face my fears.Going up was terrible. I got stomachaches from just looking at the tower. When we reached the tower, we lined up and got seated on the ride. When it reached a few feet off the ground, it stopped for a moment, before sending us straight to the top at great speed. I squeezed my eyes shut and I held the handlebar as tightly as I could. A few seconds later my heart was in my mouth and I was screaming my lungs out. At the top, I opened my eyes and looked forward, not down.I tried to prepare myself for the way down, but it didn't really help. There I was, with my eyes squeezed shut, holding the handlebar and again, screaming at the top of my voice. In fact, it was even worse than going up! But when I got to the bottom, I felt relieved. I thanked my dad for forcing me to go on the ride, and I was pleased I had faced my fears.So, was the "Sky Screamer" scary? Well, maybe just a little bit.6．Which of the following wasn't the writer afraid of?A．Riding a lift to a higher place. B．Looking down from a height.C．Looking up at drop towers.

湖北省2023-2024学年普通高中学业水平合格性考试仿真模拟卷英语试卷（三）一、阅读理解Best for Outdoor EnthusiastsAbisko National ParkThe Abisko National Park lies near the Norwegian border in the town of Kiruna. The park is in the south of Tornetrask, one of Sweden’s largest lakes. Known for access to the King’s Trail, the park offers a variety of recreational (娱乐的，消遣的) opportunities within the Abiskodalen Valley, with the Abiskojakka river flowing through its grounds.Abyss Ocean WorldBali may be best known for its rice fields, waterfalls, and beaches, but scuba (水肺) divers know they should spend most of their time underwater. And for a dive-focused Balinese getaway (度假), you can’t do better than Abyss Ocean World, an award-winning div e operator (经营者) with shops across the island. If your partner dislikes diving, she/he can visit temples while you spend time below the surface.Alaska Raptor CenterThe Alaska Raptor Center lies in Sitka. Many birds survive in the wild. Here you can learn more about eagles—what they eat, and what their unique characteristics are. Hopefully you’ll do your part to protect them for generations to come.1．Which of the following is a name of a lake?A．Kiruna.B．Tornetrask.C．The Abiskojakka. 2．What can your partner do if he/she dislikes diving?A．Bath e in waterfalls.B．Drink in shops.C．Go to temples.3．Who might be interested in Alaska Raptor Center?A．Bird lovers.B．Sheep lovers.C．Dog lovers.Every day for the last three years, millionaire (百万富翁) Zhong Congrong has picked up rubbish in his neighborhood and spread the environmental awareness to the residents of Chongqing.In fact, the Chongqing businessman’s anti-littering campaign was inspired by a family trip to Hainan during Chinese New Year in 2015. There, he met a retired professor from Tsinghua University who had been picking up rubbish along the beach for four years. Zhong started copying the practice around his home the day after he returned from vacation.Zhong encourages his employees—who are likely to be given 10-yuan fines if they litter at work—to join his campaign, too. But he knows that the problem can’t be solved quickly, and that broader measures must be carried out to achieve long-term success.At first, Zhong’s wife and children felt embarrassed by his behavior. For a while, they even refused to walk next to him in public. Later, however, their attitudes changed, as they realized that their neighborhood was indeed becoming cleaner, and Zhong was being praised by their neighbors. Now, Zhong’s wife has become an anti-littering campaigner herself.“The environment remains dirty no matter how many rubbish collectors there are,” Zhong said. “The only solution is to remind people of the results of littering and hope that it might change their behavior.”4．What made Zhong Congrong decide to pick up rubbish?A．A trip to Hainan.B．A business meeting.C．A professor’s lecture. 5．What does Zhong do if his employees litter at work?A．Shout at them.B．Fire them at once.C．Punish them.6．What was Zhong’s wife’s attitude to his behavior at first?A．Angry.B．Joyful.C．Ashamed.7．What’s the best title for the text?A．Zhong Congrong and His Big DreamB．A Millionaire Who Picks Up RubbishC．A Millionaire and His Environmental GroupsHave you ever seen a car without a driver? It sounds crazy, but these computer-driven driverless cars will soon be filling roads near you. Companies like Google and Tesla have been designing and testing these cars, and the technology is there.So how do they work? The cars have sensors all around which can detect other cars and obstacles (障碍物) in the road. Sensors on the wheels also help when parking. Road signs are readby cameras, and satellite navigation (导航) systems are used so the car knows how to get to your destination. All you have to do is type in the address!Computers are generally more efficient drivers than humans, meaning emissions (排放物) would be reduced. They would also drive more safely than people—they don’t get distracted by music or their friends, they would obey the speed limit and they have quicker reaction time in case of an emergency.Although being driven around by a machine would perhaps mean that no one needs a driving licence, saving money for everyone, many people would be put out of a job by the beginning of driverless cars. Bus, taxi, train and tram drivers would be made redundant.I’m not convinced I’d want a driverless car—but it’s only a matter of time before they’ll become more affordable and common on our roads.8．What can help driverless cars know road signs?A．Sensors.B．Cameras.C．Navigation systems. 9．What is the third paragraph mainly about?A．Computers mean no pollution.B．Computers react more quickly.C．Computers are more efficient and safer than human drivers.10．What does the underlined word “redundant” in Paragraph 4 mean?A．Unnecessary.B．Important.C．Special.11．What can we infer from the last paragraph?A．Everyone can afford driverless cars.B．The author has bought a driverless car.C．Driverless cars will have a bright future.Venice is no stranger to floods. The city experiences water increases from the rising tides at least four times a year, usually during winter.However, the 1.87-meter tide that swept through the city on November 12, 2019, was one of the highest ever experienced. To make matters worse, it was followed by two consecutive (持续的) water increases. The rapid series of high tides covered over 80 percent of the city of canals, causing widespread destruction (破坏) to museums, homes, and businesses.Though difficult, it is always important to find a silver lining (困境中的一线希望) after such events. In Venice, it has come in the form of the “Angels of the Salt”—hundreds of youth volunteers who have arrived in the beautiful city to help with the clean-up efforts. Piero Risica said, “When we saw the historic flooding on Tuesday night, we immediately started to gather volunteers to help the city. The first day we were 200 in the Telegram group and on the ground. Yesterday 550, and today more than 1,700.”In addition to helping drain (排空) the flood waters from residences and businesses, the young volunteers are also collecting the garbage and water-damaged devices and taking them to recycling centers.What makes Venetians annoyed is that the destruction could have been avoided if the Moveable Barrier System (MOSE) had been in place. The project to place moveable floodgates that would stop the high tides from covering the city has been under construction since 2003, and has already cost $5 billion. However, it is nowhere close to completion.12．When is it easy for Venice to experience rising tides?A．In spring.B．In summer.C．In winter.13．What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?A．To tell us the influence of high tides.B．To warn the danger of living in Venice.C．To compare the differences of past tides.14．What can we infer from Paragraph 3?A．Angels of the Salt is famous in Italy.B．Angels of the Salt is in charge of rescue.C．Volunteers take an active part in the action to help V enice.15．What makes Venetians dissatisfied?A．The unfinished MOSE.B．The destruction of MOSE.C．The waste of a lot of money.How to Be Nice to Your FamilyBe open, honest, and polite. People in healthy, happy families have good communication.16 Talk about everything from how your day went to your future aspirations (志向) so that you can better get to know each other.Listen to them without interrupting. 17 Unfortunately, many people have never learned how to listen truly to someone else. Active listening involves (包含) giving them time to talk, acknowledging (告知收悉) their problems and emotions.Support them through the hard times. 18 One of the best places to receive that support is through your family. Try to understand your family member’s opinion and consider how they feel and why they feel that way. Give whatever support you can.19 When you realize you’ve done something wrong, it’s important to apologize. Instead of letting time pass, approach the person you hurt and say you’re sorry.Walk away when you are angry. 20 This will give you the time to cool down. Besides, it can give you time to think about the situation.A．Apologize when you’re wrong.B．It is better to talk to them later, once you are angry.C．Everyone goes through hard times and needs support.D．This begins with being open, honest, and polite to one another.E．Listening to someone’s problems strengthens your relationship with someone else.二、完形填空When Aly Stosz was in kindergarten, she was taller than the rest of her class.
