Over time, some of these have jumped to humans — these are known as “zoonotic” viruses.As the population grows, we move into wild areas, which brings us into more frequent contact with animals we don’t normally have contact with. Thus viruses can jump from animals to humans and they can spread between humans, through close contact with body fluids (体液) like blood or urine.Because every virus has evolved to target a particular species, it’s rare for a virus to be able to jump to another species. When this does happen, it’s by chance, and it usually requires a large amount of contact with the virus.Initially, the virus is usually not well-suited to its new host and doesn’t spread easily. Over time, however, it can evolve in the new host to produce variants that are better adapted.When viruses jump to a new host, a process called zoonosis, they often cause more severe disease. This is because viruses and their initial hosts have evolved together, and the species has time to build up resistance. The new host species, on the other hand, might not have evolved the ability to tackle (应对) the virus. For example, when we come into contact with bats and their viruses, we may develop rabies or Ebola virus disease, while the bats themselves are less affected.It’s likely that bats are the original source of three recently emerged c o r o n a v i r u s e s:S A R S- CoV (2003), MERS-CoV (2012) and SARS-CoV-2. All of these jump from bats to humans via an intermediate animal; in the case of SARS-CoV-2, this may have been pangolins (穿山甲), but more research is needed.8. Why is it rare for a virus to infect another species?A. The new host can deal with the virus.B. The new species builds up resistance.C. Every virus can’t adapt to the new species.D. Each virus develops to target a specific species.9. What is the fifth paragraph mainly about?A. The resistance of the old species.B. The ability of the new host species.C. The process of the viral infection.D. The reason for the virus variation.10. Which of the following viruses are most likely to host in pangolins?A. SARS-CoV.B. SARS CoV-2.C. Not mentioned.D. MERS CoV.11. What can we infer from the text?A. Humans should not move into wild areas.B. Wild animals are actually our best friends.C. A virus can spread from animals to humans.D. A virus can vary to infect another species.DAlthough social media allow us to become more connected to other people than at any time in history, a new study suggests that many Americans feel lonelier than ever before, which is weakening the nation’s mental and physical health.The study conducted by the health insurer Cigna, found widespread loneliness, with nearly half of Americans reporting they feel alone, or left out at least some of the time. The nation’s 75 million millennials (ages 23 — 37) and Generation Z adults (ages 18 — 22) are lonelier than older generations. Besides, 54% of people surveyed said they feel no one knows them well, and 40% reported they “lack companionship”, their “relationships aren’t meaningful” and they “are isolated (孤孤孤) from others”.Douglas Nemecek, MD, Cigna’s chief medical officer for Behavioral Health, said the findings of the study suggest that the problem has become common, equaling the risks caused by tobacco and the nation’s ever-expanding waistline. “Loneliness has the same influence on health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day, while obesity (孤孤) less than 10 cigarettes a day,” he said in releasing the report.Nemeceks comments tallied with those of other leading public health specialists, including former Surgeon General Vivek H. Murthy, MD, who said loneliness should be targeted in public health campaigns like those designed to fight against smoking and obesity. “During my years caring for patients, the worst disease I saw was not heart disease diabetes; it was loneliness,” Murthy said in a recent cover story in the Harvard Business Review.The new report, produced in Cigna’s partnership with the polling company Ipsos, is based on an online survey of more than 20,000 US adults using the well-regarded UCLA Loneliness Scale to see how widespread loneliness is in America.12. What does the study conducted by Cigna find?A. Older Americans feel much lonelier.B. Social media do people more harm than good.C. People become more connected to each other.D. Social media increase levels of Americans’ loneliness.13. Which opinion might Douglas Nemecek support?A. Loneliness is not so harmful as smoking.B. Loneliness is taken seriously by the public.C. Loneliness is more dangerous than obesity.D. Loneliness is targeted in public health campaigns.14. What does the underlined phrase “tallied with” mean in paragraph 4?A. Agreed with.B. Varied with.C. Contradicted.D. Inspired.15. What is the purpose of the text?A. To discuss health problems.B. To present findings of 4 recent study.C. To warn people about social media use.D. To show threats to Americans’ health.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。

She brushed her fingertips over its surface, remembering.Jerry was only seven when he started surfing; by the age of eleven, he was positively incredible, moving over the face of big waves like there wasn’t even a slightest bit of efforts involved in.On that day in Bah, though, the ocean had seemed strange. The waves broke like water in a washing machine, and the breaks had been heavy too, making it tough to tell whether it was better to try to catch one or to get out of its way. That was how he’d misjudged.Ella had seen her brother lose control, his board was thrown out of the water riderless high into the air, but she hadn’t seen him surface. She’d waited for the space of a breath. Nothing. Something, clearly, was wrong.She dashed into the water, swimming faster even than the petitions at school. Lung burning. Heart Piping-Focused.She’d found him floating just beyond the reef (暗礁), face up but knocked out cold. Just as she was paddling the water hard, her leg was hurt by the reef, a short, sharp instant of pain.No matter. She had kept Jerry’s head above water, swimming all the way back to shore. That day had been the worst, scariest moment in Jerry’s surfing career, which has seen him rise from a no-name kid who loved the ocean to a young star, winning petitions around the world.For Ella, her life had changed as well. She had learned something about who she was, about what she could achieve. She ran her fingers again over the scar, the physical map of the person she had bee.28.

Jerry had his leg injured in the surfing accident.DRunning is often tiring and a lot of hard work, but nothing beats the feeling you getafter finishing a long workout around the track.But while it’s long been believed that endorphins (脑内啡）一chemicals in the body that cause happiness 一 are behind the so-called “runner’s high”，a study suggested that there may be more to this phenomenon than we previously knew.According to a recent study published by a group of scientists from several German universities, a group of chemicals called endocannabinoids (内源性大麻素）may actually be responsible for this familiar great feeling.To test this theory, the scientists turned to mice.Both mice and humans release high levels of endorphins and endocannabinoids after exercise, along with many other chemicals. After exercising on running wheels, the mice seemed happy and relaxed and displayed no signs of anxiety.But after being given a drug to block their endorphins the change. However, when their endocannabinoids were block with a different drug, their runner’s high symptoms seemed to fade.“The long-held notion of endorphins being responsible for the runner's high is false. Endorphins are effective pain relievers, but only when it es to the pain in your body and muscles you feel after working out,” Patrick Lucas Austin wrote on science blog Lifchacker.Similar studies are yet to be carried out on humans, but it’s already well known that exercise is a highly effective way to get rid of stress or anxiety.The UK's National Health Service even prescribes (开药方)exercise to patients who are suffering from depression.“Being depressed can leave you feeling low in energy, which might put you off being more active. Regular exercise can boost your mood if you have depression, and it's especially useful for people with mild to moderate (中等的）depression,” it wrote on its website.It seems like nothing can beat that feeling we get after a good workout, even if we don t fully und erstand where it es from. At least if we’re feeling down, we know that all we have to do is put on our running shoes.32. What did scientists from German universities recently discover?A. Working out is a highly effective way to treat depression.B. The runner's high could be caused by endocannabinoids.C. Endorphins may contribute to one's high spirits after running.D. The level of endorphins and endocannabinoids could affect one's mood.33. The scientists gave mice drugs in their experiment to .A. find what reduces the runner's high symptomsB. see the specific symptoms of the runner's highC. identify what is responsible for the runner's highD. test what influences the level of endocannabinoids released34. The underlined word “notion” in Paragraph 7 has the closest meaning to .A. effectB. goalC. questionD. belief35. According to the UK’s National Health Service, regular workouts .A. are the best way to treat depressionB. can help ease depression symptomsC. only work for those with serious depressionD. can help people pletely recover from depression第二节（共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

All of these jump from bats to humans via an intermediate animal; in the case of SARS-CoV-2, this may have been pangolins (穿山甲), but more research is needed.8. Why is it rare for a virus to infect another species?A. The new host can deal with the virus.B. The new species builds up resistance.C. Every virus can’t adapt to the new species.D. Each virus develops to target a specific species.9. What is the fifth paragraph mainly about?A. The resistance of the old species.B. The ability of the new host species.C. The process of the viral infection.D. The reason for the virus variation.10. Which of the following viruses are most likely to host in pangolins?A. SARS-CoV.B. SARS CoV-2.C. Not mentioned.D. MERS CoV.11. What can we infer from the text?A. Humans should not move into wild areas.B. Wild animals are actually our best friends.C. A virus can spread from animals to humans.D. A virus can vary to infect another species.DAlthough social media allow us to become more connected to other people than at any time in history, a new study suggests that many Americans feel lonelier than ever before, which is weakening the nation’s mental and physical health.The study conducted by the health insurer Cigna, found widespread loneliness, with nearly half of Americans reporting they feel alone, or left out at least some of the time. The nation’s 75 million millennials (ages 23 —37) and Generation Z adults (ages 18 —22) are lonelier than older generations. Besides, 54% of people surveyed said they feel no one knows them well, and 40% reported they “lack companionship”, their “relationships aren’t meaningful” and they “are isolated (孤立的) from others”.Douglas Nemecek, MD, Cigna’s chief medical officer for Behavioral Health, said the findings of the study suggest that the problem has become common, equaling the risks caused by tobacco and the nation’s ever-expanding waistline. “Loneliness has the same influence on health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day, while obesity (肥胖) less than 10 cigarettes a day,” he said in releasing the report.Nemeceks comments tallied with those of other leading public health specialists, including former Surgeon General Vivek H. Murthy, MD, who said loneliness should be targeted in public health campaigns like those designed to fight against smoking and obesity. “During my years caring for patients, the worst disease I saw was not heart disease diabetes; it was loneliness,”Murthy said in a recent cover story in the Harvard Business Review.The new report, produced in Cigna’s partnership with the polling company Ipsos, is based on an online survey of more than 20,000 US adults using the well-regarded UCLA Loneliness Scale to see how widespread loneliness is in America.12. What does the study conducted by Cigna find?A. Older Americans feel much lonelier.B. Social media do people more harm than good.C. People become more connected to each other.D. Social media increase levels of Americans’ loneliness.13. Which opinion might Douglas Nemecek support?A. Loneliness is not so harmful as smoking.B. Loneliness is taken seriously by the public.C. Loneliness is more dangerous than obesity.D. Loneliness is targeted in public health campaigns.14. What does the underlined phrase “tallied with” mean in paragraph 4?A. Agreed with.B. Varied with.C. Contradicted.D. Inspired.15. What is the purpose of the text?A. To discuss health problems.B. To present findings of 4 recent study.C. To warn people about social media use.D. To show threats to Americans’ health.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。

AAn old man went to live with his son, his daughter-in-law, and a four-year-old grandson. The old man’s hands trembled, his eyesight was very poor, and he couldn’t walk steadily（平稳地）. The family ate together nightly at the dinner table. But the elderly grandfather’s shaky hands and failing sight made eating rather difficult. Rice often dropped on the floor.The son and the daughter-in-law became angry with the old man , so they put a small table in the corner. There, the grandfather ate alone, while the rest of the family enjoyed dinner at the table. Since the grandfather had broken a dish or two, his food was served in a wooden bowl.The four-year-old son watched it all in silence. One evening before supper, the father noticed his son playing with a piece of wood on the floor. He asked the child sweetly, “What are you making?”The boy answered, “Oh, I am making a little bowl for you and mama to eat your food from when I grow up.” The four-year-old son smiled and went back to work. The words struck the parents so hard thatthey were in silence. Then tears started to stream down their cheeks （脸颊）. Though no word was spoken, both knew what must be done. That evening the husband took grandfather’s hand and gently led him back to the family table.1.Why was the old man’s food served in a wooden bowl?A. Because the wooden bowl was light enough.B.

Some dogs will bark excitedly when they know they are about to go for a walk.Attention: This bark says “Hey! Hey! Look! Here am I!” Other dogs may cry and bark together to get attention, almost like a crying child.Boring: The barks of a bored dog sound like a dog that barks just to hear its own voice. Bored dogs often bark to release energy, and sometimes bark out of loneliness. They usually need an activity and perhaps even a friend.Reply to Other Dogs: This is probably like this—one dog down the street starts barking, and one by one, the rest of the dogs in your neighborhood join in.4.

Last summer, he was sent to a small town called Gaviotas in Colombia. He decided to take me with him. At first I wasn't too keen. What was I going to do in the middle of nowhere, in a country where I couldn't even speak the language? And anyway, what was so special about Gaviotas?My dad told me that Gaviotas was an example of how people could live without destroying the environment. This got me a bit more interested, so I did some research. I found out that Gaviotas was founded in 1971 by a group of scientists and artists. They had decided to build a completely new town in the remote, war-torn eastern Colombia where there was nothing.When we eventually arrived, I was amazed by how green it was and my dad explained that they had replanted millions of trees. There were many different species of birds flying about and flowers everywhere. I was beginning to like it. My dad's contact in Gaviotas has a son exactly my age, Ricardo. He speaks really good English and so for the next week he was my guide to this amazing place. The first thing he pointed out to me was all the fantastic technology that had been invented there. Ricardo told me that they produce 70% of all their own energy and food with very little waste. The trees they planted more than compensate （弥补）for green-house gases they emit（排放）.But Gaviotas is a success not just because of its green technology, it's also a model for how people can live more peacefully together. Every family gets a free home, free meals and free schooling for the children. So there is no poverty. People get on well with each other. It's fantastic.I was really sad to leave Gaviotas, but now I have a new dream: I hope that, 20 years from now, we'll all be living in towns like Gaviotas.（1）How did the author feel about going to Gaviotas at the beginning?A.Active.B.Uninterested.C.Guilty.D.Worried.（2）What did Gaviotas use to be like?A.Bare and war-stricken.B.Green and efficient.C.Modern but polluted.D.Small but advanced.（3）Where can you find the evidence to show that Gaviotas is a green town?A.In paragraph 2.B.In paragraph 3.C.In paragraph 4.D.In paragraph 5.（4）What does paragraph 4 focus on?A.How people in Gaviotas avoid waste.B.Gaviotas is a town of green technology.C.Gaviotas is an ideal model of community.D.How scientists and artists founded Gaviotas.3.In 1949, a Swedish engineer named Curt Lindquist created a material which was made of fiber and cotton and could absorb water quickly. He turned this new material into dishcloths which have been available in Europe ever since, and now they are gaining ground in Canada.I love microfiber cleaning cloths, but stopped buying them when I started cutting down on plastic and things containing chemicals. I had heard that Swedish dishcloths would replace traditional towels, but didn't see how they could be much better than my regular cotton dish towels. At that time the company Swedish Wholesale sent me a sample pack of 10 to have a try and I am really kind of gobsmacked—they perform really well. The ones are hard at first, but get soft once they are wet. They are made in Europe, which means they aren't exactly a local product.The best part of the dishcloths may be that they are completely biodegradable（可生物降解的）. The ones I got are made of biodegradable plant-based fiber and cotton. After innocent spills and wiping up water, I just wash them out in the sink and squeeze them well, then let them dry on the dish rack. For more intensive washing, they can go into the washing machine or dishwasher! They are much less likely to give shelter to bacteria compared to traditional dishcloths because of their unique composition.I have been using them for about a month, and am curious to see how long the pack will last, but so far they have been satisfactory. I worried that they would just be something I would have to throw out at the end of their lives, but that they can be composted（制成肥料）, which is a key factor, makes a big difference. I will report back after more time has passed, but for now I can't imagine going back to everything else.（1）Why did the author stop buying microfiber cleaning cloths?A.They contained chemical materials.B.They were of worse quality than before.C.She would be given much cleaner dishcloths.D.She wanted to cut back on her daily expenses.（2）What does the underlined word "gobsmacked" in paragraph 2 probably mean?A.Disappointed.B.Surprised.C.Upset.D.Confident.（3）What does the author say about the new dishcloths?A.They turn out a local product.B.They can help kill bacteria.C.They must be washed in a washing machine.D.They have advantages over the traditional ones.（4）What is the best title of the text?A.Dishcloths made in EuropeB.A trial for Swedish dishclothsC.The function of new dishclothsD.The differences between dishcloths4.If you feel the sky seem empty of birds, you are not alone. A 2018 study showed that 40% of the world's 11,000 bird species are on the decrease, and one in eight bird species is threatened with global extinction, one of which is the kakapo.Native to New Zealand, they are unlike any other species of parrots. Over time, they have lost their ability to fly and gained weight and become the heaviest parrots. Once found in large numbers, they're now close to extinction. While fierce animals are to blame, their breeding（繁殖）habits don't help either.The parrots, which can live up to 100 years, don't start breeding until the age of five. Therefore, it is not surprising that only 114 adult parrots remained in 2019. Though the number is low, it is larger than that in 1995, when only 51 remained on earth. The growing population is a result of the government's decision and the efforts of a team led by Andrew Rigby, a scientist.The researchers tagged each bird with a smart transmitter（发射器）. Its information is picked up and sent to the scientists, allowing them to locate where the birds are nesting and get to know if they are sick. The trackers also allow the team to control the parrots' diet at the right time. Once the birds lay eggs, the eggs are taken from the nests. Once the eggs hatch, each mother is given only one chick, while the rest are hand raised, which helps ensure they all receive enough food.While such efforts to bring back a species may seem unreasonable, Rigby believes it is vital for the future of all endangered animals. He says, "From an ecosystem point of view, we don't know what bringing kakapos back to stable numbers would produce. However, kakapos are like the panda of the bird world. If people engaged with kakapos, they would be interested in conservation of other wildlife."（1）What do we know about kakapos from the text?A.They have been extinct in the wild.B.They live in peace with wild animals.C.They're flightless and the heaviest parrots.D.They have been hunted by human beings.（2）Why does the population of kakapos increase so slowly?A.They don't breed until they are five.B.They don't adapt to the surroundings.C.The government didn't take action in time.D.The efforts made by the team didn't take effect.（3）What is implied in Rigby's words in the last paragraph?A.It's hard to bring back an endangered species.B.It's important for human beings to respect nature.C.Few people know how to save the endangered animals.D.Saving kakapos will have a great influence on wildlife protection.（4）What is the main idea of the text?A.The scientists know how to save kakapos.B.The latest technology is used to save kakapos.C.The kakapo is different from other species of parrots.D.A new program is aimed at protecting the environment.二、七选五阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
2020-2021学年山东济钢高级中学高三英语月考试题及参考答案
2020-2021学年山东济钢高级中学高三英语月考试题及参考答案第一部分阅读（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ASahara Marathon 2021-Around the WorldThe Sahara Marathon is organized by the Saharawi Ministry of Youth and Sports and a group of volunteers from different countries. During the last twenty years, thousands of runners from all continents have traveled to the Algerian desert to live the experience provided by this race and to bond with refugee families. In this unique edition of 2021, the experience will be different. The race will be held in a virtual way and the donations collected through the event will go to the most needy families in the Saharawi Camps of Tindouf.Rules of the 2021 Sahara MarathonParticipationAll those people over 16 years of age (16 included) may take part in this virtual competition, as long as they are correctly registered, both in time and in form. The registered runner must download the Official Sahara Marathon APP to take the race.Distance and TravelThe distance options selectable in the APP are: 5k, 10k, 21k and 42k. As it is a virtual test, it is very important to make sure that the chosen route allows good mobile coverage for the correct functioning of the GPS. RegistrationRegistration has a cost of 15 euros, which includes participation in the race and a donation of 5 euros to refugee families. Participants can, if they choose, purchase the official pack of the test (T-shirt, scar, and bib) for the price of 25 euros.AcceptanceRegistration is personal and non-transferable and implies acceptance of these regulations. Runners who are not registered or run without the APP will not be admitted.1. What can we learn about the 2021 Sahara Marathon?A. It is a big family event.B. It provides a virtual tour.C. It raises money for charity.D. It will be held in the desert.2. How much should a runner pay if he wants to register for the race?A. 15 euros.B. 20 euros.C. 25 euros.D. 40 euros.3. What are runners required to do in the race?A. Choose safe routes.B. Wear casual clothes.C. Run with the official app.D. Transfer registration in time.BAlthough computer technology is often necessary today, using a pen or pencil activates more areas of your brain than a keyboard does. You can potentially remember more by handwriting, according to a new study.The potential benefits of handwriting for memory have been debated for some time. The new study set out to answer one question: How does handwriting compare to using a keyboard when it comes to remembering new information?In all,24 participants took part. Researchers asked each of them to write with a pen and then each was also asked to type on a keyboard. While performing these tasks, each volunteer wore a cap that held electrodes next to their head. It looked somewhat like a hair net fitted with 256 sensors. Those sensors recorded the participants' brainwaves. The electrodes noted which parts of the brain turned on during each task. And they showed that writing turned on memory areas in the brain while typing didn't.Audrey van der Meer, the new study's leader, says this suggests that when we write by hand, we remember better. “This is because writing involves complex movements that activate more areas of the brain. The increased brain activity gives the brain more ‘hooks’ to hang your memories on,” she explains. Van der Meer also points out that writing by hand is related to visual notetaking. “Rather than typing blindly, the visual notetaker has to think about what is important to write down. Then, key words can be interlinked by boxes, arrows and small drawings,” she adds.This study does not recommend banning digital devices. In fact, its authors point out, computers and other devices with keyboards have become necessary in modern society. Keyboarding can especially benefit those with certain special needs (such as if they have trouble using their hands) and typing beats writing when it comes to speed, they add.4. Why were participants asked to wear caps in the study?A. To record their brainwavesB. To inform them of their tasksC. To allow them to focus on writingD. To protect their heads like hair nets5. What does Audrey van der Meer try to explain?A. Why handwriting is more complex than typingB. Why the brain works when it comes to learningC. Why handwriting helps remember informationD. Why key words are helpful to visual notetaking6. What is the study's authors' view on typing?A. It relieves people's handsB. It remains vital and helpfulC. It is not worth recommendingD. It is more challenging than writing7. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?A. How Can You Remember New Information?B. Handwriting Benefits Health in the LongRunC. Should Typing Take the Place of Handwriting?D. Handwriting Is Better for Memory Than TypingCI was so worried about handing my little boy over during his first week of school, but you made it easier. You smiled at him like a mother would at her own child.You showed warmth and your hugs were always on offer.After a day in class with you, Charlie would come home singing. Whenever I hear Do Your Ears Hang Low or see him stretching to the sky when singing about the days of the week, I will think of you.I didn't tell you at the time, but I loved your morning song so much that Iimplementedit in my own class (I'm a teacher, too).When you saw I was troubled, you hugged me with your smile and I knew everything would be OK. You made parents feel as cared for as our children.In the short time I knew you; you taught me about the type of teacher I desire to be. You never seemed disturbed by the mountain of paperwork or impossible work-life balance that comes with the role. Instead, you appeared to embrace every minute.I can't understand why you've been taken from us. Telling Charlie was one of the hardest things I've had to do.I'm not sure he fully understands, but he told me he loved you and has been asking whether your"robot powers"will work in heaven.A friend once told me white feathers are angels telling us that loved ones in heaven are well. On the first day collecting the children without you，a white feather floated through the sleet (雨夹雪). Watching the younger ones bounce and gigle as they tried to catch it was beautiful.I wish I had told you all of this when you were with us.I hope that you knew how you brought happiness to everyone you met and how loved you were. Goodbye, Dear Friend.8. What does the underlined word "implemented" in Paragraph l probably mean?A. Looked back on.B. Looked forward to.C. Thought highly of.D. Made use of.9. What can we learn from the passage about parents?A. They need to sing songs before children.B. They need to feel the affection as well.C. They find it hard to handle their kids.D.

The writer mentioned "white feather" in Paragraph 4 mainly to ______.rm us of the loved one's deathB. remind us it's time for a snowball fightC. tell us the teacher stays in our mind after deathD. warn us of the falling snow when collecting children11. What's the writer's main purpose in writing this article?A. To make a remark on Charlie's teacher.B.To say goodbye to her fellow teacher.C. To take pity on her fellow teacher.D. To recall and show respect for Charlie's teacher.DThe first patient who died on my watch was an older man with a faulty heart. We tried to slow it down with treatment, but it suddenly stopped beating completely. Later, whenever I would have a case like that one, I found myself second-guessing my clinical management. However, it turns out that thinking twice may actually cause more harm than good.In a working paper, Emory University researchers found that when doctors delivering a baby have a bad result, they are more likely to switch to a different delivery method with the next patient, often unnecessarily and sometimes with worse results.Because doctors make so many decisions that have serious consequences, thefalloutfrom second-guessing appears especially large for us. A 2006 study found that if a patient had a bleed after being prescribed (开药) warfarin, the physician was about 20% less likely to prescribe later patients the blood thinner that prevents strokes (中风). However, if a patient was not on warfarin and had a stroke physicians were still no more likely to prescribe warfarin to their other patients.These findings highlight interesting behavioral patterns in doctors. In the blood-thinner study, doctors were more affected by the act of doing harm (prescribing a blood thinner that ended up hurting doctors were moreaffected by the act of doing harm(prescribing a blood thinner that ended up hurting a patient) and less affected by letting harm happen (not prescribing a blood thinner and the patient having a stroke). Yet a stroke is often more permanent and damaging than a bleed.But this phenomenon is not unique to medicine. ''Overreaction to Fearsome Risks'' holds true for broader society.For instance, sensational headlines about shark attacks on humans in Florida in 2001 caused a panic and led the state to prohibit shark-feeding expeditions. Yet shark attacks had actually fallen that year and, according to the study, such a change was probably unnecessary given the extremely small risk of such an attack happening.Humans are likely to be influenced by emotional and often irrational (不理性的) thinking when processing information, bad events and mistakes. As much as we don't want to cause an unfortunate event to happen again, we need to be aware that a worst situation that can be imagined doesn't necessarily mean we did anything wrong. When we overthink, we fail to rely on thinking based on what we know or have experienced. Instead, we may involuntarily overanalyze and come to the wrong conclusion.I have treated dozens of patients who presented with the same illnesses as my first patient, who died more than a year ago. Instead of second-guessing myself, I trusted my clinical instinct (本能) and stayed the course. Every one of those patients survived. You should trust your instinct in your life, too.12. The first two paragraphs suggest that________.A. bad medical outcomes affect doctorsB delivering babies can be difficult workC. some doctors are not very experiencedD. doctors sometimes make silly mistakes13. In the blood-thinner study, doctors________.A. tend to prescribe less effective medicineB. are more concerned about the patients' safetyC. become less confident in writing a prescriptionD. believe a stroke is more treatable than a bleeding14. What does the underlined word ''fallout'' in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. ResultB. BenefitC. DifferenceD. Absence15. The author will probably agree that________.A. we should not doubt our own decisionsB. our experience will pave way for our futureC. humans are emotional and irrational on the wholeD. instincts don't necessarily lead to wrong directions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。
2020-2021学年山东省青州市第一高级中学高三英语月考试卷及答案
2020-2021学年山东省青州市第一高级中学高三英语月考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ASpeaking with people on the phone is pretty rare these days. Most people use e-mail or messaging apps when they need to communicate with someone. Sometimes, though, making a call is unavoidable. This simple act can actually be a nightmare for some people. Their hearts race and their hands sweat at the very thought. If this sounds familiar to you, you might be one of the millions of people who suffer from telephobia—the fear of speaking over the phone.Telephobia is a form of social anxiety, although people who feel perfectly comfortable in social situations may also experience telephobia. When speaking face-to-face, we give off lots of facial or bodily cues that help each other follow the conversation. This is not the case over the phone. And the idea of speaking into this void（真空）makes people terrified that they will freeze up, stumble over their words（失言）, or lose control of the conversation and look foolish In fact, telephobia is very similar to thefear people feel before putting on a performance in front of a big audience. However, there are things that one suffering from thin condition can do to reduce this fear and make phone calls at least somewhat bearable.One thing that those with telephobia can do before a call in smile. It may sound silly, but smiling before doing something stressful can help you feel more relaxed. It won't delete the anxiety altogether, but it will take the edge off it.Similarly, imagining how the call will go before you make it can also help things go more smoothly. Running through a positive conversation in your head will make you feel less nervous and may help you predict any possible problems. There's no need to spend hours on this, just a few minutes thinking up a general idea of what you want to say. You can even write down some brief notes to remind yourself of your talking points. This is particularly useful for dealing with the fear of not being able to express yourself naturally.And finally, when faced with receiving a call, you don't always have to pick up. There's nothing wrong with calling the person back later when you feel more comfortable.So the next time your phone starts ringing, remember—speaking on the phone doesn't have to make you sweat. The important thing is to be aware of your fear and take steps to deal with it.1. According to the article, which situation can cause a feeling similar lo telephobia?A.Speaking face-to-face to a good friend.B. Performing in front of a large audience.C. Running in a race without proper shoes.D. Using a messaging app while on the subway.2. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way to deal with telephobia?A.Imagining how the call will go before you make it.B. Standing on the edge of a tall building while making a call.C. Calling someone back later instead of answering their phone calls right away.D. Writing down some brief notes to remind yourself of your talking points.3. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To present ways to ease telephobia.B. To explain the development of telephobiaC. To introduce the influence of telephobia.D. To give the reason why someone suffers from telephobia.BEvery day, millions of shoppers hit the stores in full force, searching wildly for the perfect gift.Aside from purchasing holiday gifts, most people regularly buy presents for other occasions throughout the year, including weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, and graduations. This frequent experience of gift-giving cancause uncertain feelings in gift-givers. Many enjoy the opportunity to buy presents because gift-giving offers a powerful means to build stronger bonds, while many worry that their purchases will disappoint rather than delight the intended recipients (接受者).Anthropologists describe gift-giving as a positive social process, serving various political, religious, and psychological functions. Economists, however, offer a less favorable view. According to Waldfogel, gift-giving represents an objective wasteof resources. People buy gifts that recipients would not choose to buy on their own, or at least not spend as much money to purchase (a phenomenon referred to as‘‘the deadweight loss of Christmas”).What is surprising is that gift-givers have much experience acting as both gift-givers and gift-recipients, but nevertheless tend to overspend each time they set out to purchase a meaningful gift. In the present research, we propose a unique psychological explanation for this overspending problem — gift-givers link how much they spend with how much recipients will appreciate the gift. Though it seems natural to gift-givers, such an assumption maybe unfounded. Indeed, we propose that gift-recipients will be less likely to base their feelings of appreciation on the value of a gift than givers assume.Why do gift-givers assume that gift price is closely linked to gift-recipients’ feelings of appreciation? Perhaps givers believe that more expensive gifts communicate a stronger sense ofthoughtfulness and consideration. According to Camerer and others, gift-giving represents a symbolic ritual (习俗), by which gift-givers attempt to signal their positive attitudes towards the recipient and their willingness to invest resources in a futurerelationship. In this sense, gift-givers may be motivated to spend more money on a gift in order to send a “stronger signal”. As for gift-recipients, they may not interpret smaller and larger gifts as representing smaller and larger signals of thoughtfulness and consideration.The idea of gift-givers and gift-recipients being unable to account for the other party’s viewpoint seems confusing because people slip in and out of these roles every day. Yet, despite the experience as both givers and receivers, people often struggle to apply information gained from one role in another. In theoretical terms, people fail to use information about their own preferences and experiences to produce more efficient outcomes in their exchange relations. In practical terms, people spend hundreds of dollars each year on gifts, but somehow never learn to estimate their gift expense according to personal insight.4. The author uses “the deadweight loss of Christmas” in Paragraph 2 to express ________.A. gift-givers don’t spend much money during holidaysB. gift-givers don’t ask recipients what gifts they preferC. gift-givers buy improper and expensive giftsD. gift-givers have difficulty in choosing gifts5. According to the passage, people buy gifts to ________.A. receive gifts in returnB. enjoy the feeling of shoppingC. help recipients to save moneyD. better relationships with recipients6. What can we learn from the passage?A. People’s high living standards require expensive gifts.B. Gift-givers buy gifts based on their experiences as recipients.C. Anthropologists think gift-giving meets different human needs.D. Recipients judge the depth of friendship according to the gift price.7. Why did the author write this article?A. To criticize people’s gift-buying habits.B. To analyze people’s gift-giving behaviors.C. To offer advice on how to improve relationships.D. To remind people not to overlook others’ preferences.COn March 18, 34-year-old Lance Karlson was walking on the beach and looking for somewhere toswim in Geographe Bay when he saw what he thought was a stingray (黄貂鱼) leap from the water.Realizing the creature was, in fact, an octopus (章鱼), he started filming it — just in time for the angry octopus to launch itself at him. He immediately felt a sharp pain across his left arm, followed by a second strike across his neck and upper back. His goggles (护目镜) fogged and the water around him turned dark with what he thought might have been octopus ink as he struggled back toward the shore."I was confused — it was more of a shock than a fright," said Karlson, "I might have hit on its home." Within a minute, a perfect imprint of an octopus tentacle (触手) appeared on Karlson's neck and back.A former volunteer lifeguard, Karlson rushed back to his hotelroom to find something acidic to put on the wound. All his family could grab was Coca-Cola, which his wife poured over his back and the pain disappeared."The pain went away and more than anything since then, it's been more the physical hit that was painful.... The imprint on my neck is more from the physical hit, and I guess it makes complete sense when you look at the video I took," he said.Karlson said he'd never seen an octopus that close before and watched Netflix documentary "My Octopus Teacher" after the incident to learn more about the species."They are beautiful creatures and I really hope this promotes more interest in octopuses as opposed to fear of them. I think this is a fascinating creature with clearly some very strong emotions just like we do as humans," he added.8. When did the octopus attack Karlson?A. When he was swimming in the bay.B. When he was shooting the octopus.C. When he was looking for some fish.D. When he was fighting against the octopus.9. What plays an essential role in reducing Karlson's pain?A. The lifeguard's timely help.B. Karson's wife's quick action.C. The family members' efforts.D. Karlson’s knowledge of first aid.10. What does Karlson learn from his experience?A. The octopus is dangerous.B. People should get away from the octopus.C. People need know more about the octopus.D. The physical hit from the octopus is painful.11.
