2019届甘肃省泾川市高考模拟英语试题
一、阅读选择
1.
Education is not an end, but a means to an end.
In other words, we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them.
Our purpose is to fit them for life.
In some modern countries it has for some time been fashionable to think that by free educati on for all—whether rich or poor, clever or stupid—
one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation.
But we can already see that free education for all is not enough;
we find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degrees refuse to do what they think to be "low" work, and, in fact, work with hands is thought to be dirty and sha meful in such countries.
But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor.
We can live without education, but we die if we have no food.
If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses, we should get terri ble diseases in our towns.
In fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever work suited to his brains and ability and, secondly, that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and that is very bad to be ashamed of one's work.
Only such a type of education can be considered valuable to society.
（1）According to the passage, the purpose of education is ______.
A to build a perfect world
B to choose a system of education
C to let everyone receiv e education fit for him
D to prepare children mainly for their future work
（2）Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A It's hard for university graduates to find jobs.
B No one would like to do work with han ds.
C Education is not enough to build a perfect nation.
D University graduates are as hamed of their work.
（3）In the writer's opinion, ______.
A all the social problems can't be solved by education
B free education for all probably le ads to a perfect world
C free education won't help to solve social problems
D educati on can settle all of the world's problems

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

Dear Sir，
I have to travel every day from Souk Road to the airport. Two buses travel along this route—No.49 and No.16. However, by the time No.16 reaches Souk Road, it's always full. ______ The timetable states that there are buses from Souk Road to the airport every ten minutes. ______
The instructions state that if there are empty seats on a bus, the bus must stop at every stop where people are waiting. ______
The instructions state that no bus may carry more than 40 seated passengers and 20 standing passengers. Yesterday, I was the first to get off the bus when it reached the airport.
______ There were 129 of them.
Clearly printed on the back of every bus is a sign that says “Maximum speed 50 mph.” ______ Saturday morning a No.49 bus travelled the distance in ten minutes, at an average speed of
60mph. At times it must have done it at least 80 or even 90 mph.
It is obvious that our bus companies have neither respect for the instructions nor consideration for their passengers. Can nothing be done about
this? Jeff
A. I counted the other passengers as they got off.
B. Is there anything we can do to change this?
C. The problem is that we can have to pay more for our trip.
D. The distance from Souk Road to the airport is 10 miles.
E. This leaves No.49 which sometimes has empty seats on it.
F. If this is so, why do I have to wait half an hour for a bus nearly every day?
G. Why is it that halfempty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop？
4. Warm water freezes more quickly than cold water． Sir Francis Bacon said that almost four hundred years ago． But few people believed him until 1970． In that year a Canadian scientist George Kill proved the English professor was right． Dr Kill filled an open oil pail （桶） with cold water． He filled another with warm water． He put both in the same low temperature． The warm water froze first． The lack of covers on the pails is the secret． Some of the warm water changed into vapor． This meant that less of the warm water was left to be frozen． And so the warm water froze faster than the cold water even though it had a greater temperature drop to make．
（1）Hundreds of years ago， Sir Francis Bacon found________．
A the temperature of warm water drops faster than that of cold water
B warm water is heavier than cold water
C warm water has the same temperature as cold
water D warm water is not as useful as cold water．
（2）Leave a pail with warm water and another pail with cold water in the same low temperature， you'll find that________．
A cold water freezes first
B warm water turns into ice before cold water
C warm water and cold water freeze at the same time
D much of cold water is changed into air．．
（3）Why does warm water freeze first in the same freezing weather？________
A Because some of the warm water turns to vapor， the amount becomes less than that of cold water．
B Because warm water is lighter than cold water．
C Because the temperature of warm water is lower than that of cold water．
D Because cold water freezes with more difficulty than warm water．
5. When I was a kid, I used to spend hours listening to Adam Carolla and Dr． Drew Pinsky on their Sunday night radio show Loveline． I listened so often that I began to use one of their well﹣known phrases﹣"good times"﹣in my daily conversations． Scientists have a name for this phenomenon: behavioral mimicry．
You've probably experienced this before: after spending enough time with another person, you might start to pick up on his or her behavior or speech habits． You might even start to develop your friend's habits without realizing it． There is a large body of literature concerning this sort of phenomenon, and it regularly happens for everything from body gesture to accents to drink patterns（模式）． For example, one study found that young adults were more likely to drink their drink directly after their same﹣sex drinking partners, than for the two individuals to drink at their own paces．
And the effect isn't limited to real﹣life face﹣to﹣face activities． Another study found that the same you﹣drink﹣then﹣I﹣drink pattern held even when watching a movie! In other words, people were more likely to take a drink of their drinks in a theater after watching the actors on the screen enjoy a drink． At least I don't feel so strange anymore, having picked up on Adam Carolla's "good times"．
New research published today in the journal PLOS ONE indicates that the same sort of behavioral mimicry is responsible for social eating, at least among university﹣age women of normal weight． That's right: the young women were more likely to adjust their eating according to the eating pace of their same﹣sex dining companion．
As with most experiments, these results raise a whole new set of
questions． However, the finding that behavioral mimicry may at least partly explain eating behavior is important, and has real effects on health． The researchers note that "as long as people don't fully recognize such important influences on intake （eating）, it will be difficult to make healthy food choices and keep a healthy diet, especially when people are exposed to the eating behavior of others"．
（1）The author takes his own example of using "good times" to________．
A show the influence of the hosts' words
B express his love for radio
shows C prove the popularity of the show D introduce the topic of the passage．
（2）It can be inferred from the last paragraph that________．
A behavioral mimicry is beneficial to our health
B behavioral mimicry decides our eating behavior
C people have realized the effect of behavioral mimicry on our
health D It's impossible to keep a healthy diet without knowing behavioral mimicry．
（3）What is probably the author's purpose of writing this passage？________
A To introduce behavioral mimicry and its influence．
B To appeal to readers not to fall into others' habits．
C To advocate healthy food choices among readers．
D To draw readers' attention to popular radio shows．
二、七选五
6. （1）_______．
After all，laughter is the best medicine．Pick up something that makes you laugh like a funny picture，book，magazine，or a DVD of your favorite comedy．（2）_______．Giving yourself time to laugh boosts feel﹣good endorphins（胺多酚）．
3．（3）_______
Take a photo of yourself doing something you enjoy，like roller skating，skiing，swimming，playing an instrument，or being with friends and family．Place the picture on your desk to remind yourself that you lead an amazing life and have lots to be happy about．
A．Model behavior
B．Try walking to a place that seems exciting to you
C．Ten minutes of relaxation can do wonders
D．Even the most optimistic people can use a mood boost every once in a while
E．Tell someone that you're guaranteed to brighten their day
F．You could even plan a date night out to a comedy club
G．Buy something silly．

Therefore， I believe we can have as bright a future in the country as we have in the
city．（就业前景广阔）Yours，
Li Hua。
