Well, one man, Eugene Bostick, decided that when he retired, he would devote the rest of his life to helping homeless dogs feel loved.Eugene Bostick was fortunate enough to be able to retire at the ripe age of 65 after working his entire life on his farm. His farm was located at the end of a dead-end street, and he noticed that people would, unfortunately, abandon their dogs on the farm and race off.Eugene refused to see these pets suffer, and he quickly picked up these abandoned dogs, giving them food and taking them to the vet to make sure they were spayed and neutered.Eugene’s farm has all kinds of animals, such as horses and goats, so these dogs have plenty of other animals to play with.Over the last 20 years, Eugene has shown his kindness by taking on these abandoned pets, but he also saw the chance to offer them a bit of adventure. After spotting a neighbor transporting rocks behind his tractor using barrels, he realized he could do the same for his dogs. Eugene got to work to make his own train, and made sure to add some pleasant pillows so his furry friends could travel in comfort. The dogs quickly got on the train, and together, they spent hours traveling around town and through the forests nearby.After they were spotted around town, one neighbor took a picture of Eugene that went viral, and a GoFundMe page wasstarted that gained plenty of donations. Eugene was amazed by everyone’s generosity, and was happy to see others help these abandoned animals feel loved. Eugene will continue to care for his dogs, and we should all follow his lead!19.What can we learn from the passage?A.Eugene wished to retire ahead of time to care for homeless dogs.B.People would race to the farm to pick up homeless dogs.C.Eugene and the vet took in many abandoned dogs together.D.Eugene’s idea for the barrel train was inspired from his neighbor.20.What’s people’s attitude to Eugene’s act?A.Supportive. B.Unconcerned.C.Doubtful. D.Astonished.21.Which words can be used to describe Eugene?A.Serious and hardworking. B.Caring and adventurous.C.Rich and generous. D.Playful and Childish.22.What can be the best title for this passage?A.A retired man’s life B.Lucky dogsC.Train for homeless dogs D.How to help homeless dogsIf the three Rs (reduce, reuse and recycle) is a guideline to save the planet, garbage-sorting is where the efforts start. Since May 1, Beijing has started to carry out mandatory garbage-sorting in new efforts to better protect the environment. Under the new regulation, residents are required to classify household waste into four categories: kitchen, recyclable, hazardous and other waste. People who fail to sort their garbage properly can be fined from 50 to 200 yuan, reported Xinhua.Some residential communities in Beijing have introduced rewards to encourage residents to sort their garbage. According to Xinhua, residents can earn points by classifying their domestic waste correctly and then exchange the points they accumulate for daily necessities such as soap.Garbage sorting practices have reached over 70 percent of housing estates in 18 cities, including Shanghai, Xiamen and Hangzhou, according to the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development. Shanghai first enacted a mandatorygarbage-sorting regulation in July 2019 and has had a 90 percent compliance (服从) rate among its housing estates.According to a report by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, over 90 percent of the public believe thatgarbage-sorting is important for the protection of the environment. However, garbage-sorting is still a big problem in China. Only 30 percent of participants said they think they are completely sorting their waste, the report noted. According to Xinhua, it’s partly because many people lack the willingness to sort their own waste. Also, some previous garba ge regulations didn’t include fines for people who failed to obey them.“It’s a must to have a legal guarantee to promote garbage sorting,” Liu Jianguo, a professor from Tsinghua University, told China Daily, “Aside from China, many countries like Germany, Spain and Britain, also ask people to sort waste into specific categories. In Japan, there is a fixed time for the sorting of each kind of garbage and littering.”23.What can we learn about the new regulation in Beijing?A.It hasn’t been put into use yet.B.Residents can sort the garbage as they like.C.People can get money if they classify their domestic waste correctly.D.Those who can’t sort the garbage as the new rule requires shall be fined.24.What’s the problem in garbage sorting in China?A.Most people are unaware of its importance in protecting environment.B.Some people don’t want to take the trouble to sort the garbage.C.Only residents in big cities can sort the trash correctly.D.The government doesn’t have enough money to support garbage sorti ng.25.What can we infer from Liu Jianguo’s words?A.It’s difficult to carry out garbage sorting in China.B.Some laws in garbage-sorting are needed.C.People in developed countries can better sort the garbage.D.We should learn from Japan.26.What’s the b est title of the passage?A.Garbage sorting, a new start in China B.New regulations in BeijingC.Argument on garbage sorting D.How to sort domestic garbageWant to pick up that new best-seller for your flight, but not sure you want to spend the money?This will change your mind.If you’ve done a lot of traveling, you’ve probably noticed that the bookstores at airports all look pretty similar. They’ve a ll got familiar logos, the walls of inviting plane snacks, and, of course, the towers of new hardcover books. Chances are you’ve wanted to grab one of those books for the plane ride. However, those hardcover books are a little pricey. Is it worth it to splurge, just to relieve the midair boredom?Yes it is—because of a cool program that these bookstores have in place. These similar airport stores are all owned by the company Paradies Lagardère, and all of those stores take part in what’s called the “Read and Return program.” It’s exactly wh at it sounds like. Whenever you buy one of those books, you’ve got s ix months to finish it and bring it back to the same, or another, Paradies Lagardère location. When you do that, you get half your money for the original purchase back.If you’re going on a trip, buy that book you’ve been dying to read. When you go back to the airport for the return trip, bring the book back with you and get half the money back. While you’re still in the bookstore, go ahead and get that other book you’ve been dying to read. Or the sequel to the book you read on the way there. Either way, your boredom on the flight back will be cured. And it gets better: the book you gave back will be re-sold for half price! Here’s what you can get for free at an airport.There are two things you do need to make sure of. You have to bring back the receipt to get your money back. Also, the book needs to be in decent condition. But other than that, this program couldn’t be easier. In a way, it’s like a buy-one-get-one-half-off deal for books. Or get two books for the price of one-and-a-half. Either way, count us in.27.What does the underlined word “splurge” in paragraph 2 mean?A.Spend the money. B.Take the effort.C.Take the trouble. D.Spend the time.28.How does the “Read and Return program” run?A.You can read books for free in any Paradies Lagardère store.B.You can buy books for half price in airport bookstores.C.You need to return the book to the same store where you buy it.D.You can get half your money back if you return the book timely.29.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A.It is difficult to take part in the program.B.The receipt is necessary if you want to return the book.C.The program is popular with readers.D.The program runs successfully.30.Why does the author write this passage?A.To encourage people to read on airplanes.B.To introduce Paradies Lagardère company.C.To advertise the “Read and Return program”.D.To show the advantages of reading on airplanes.三、七选五Humans were made for walking. With our upright posture and strong leg muscles, our bodies were designed with walking in mind --- which is what makes it such perfect exercise. 31.And best of all, it’s a great way to see new things and meet new people!32.Wherever you are, in the city or at the campground, you’ll find plenty of walking going on. Studies have shown that taking a walk every day significantly reduces your risk for heart disease and high blood pressure, and it even lowers stress levels. Recently, science has proved that walking is even good for your body shape and brain.To get started, sit down with a map and make a plan. 33.Do you want to meet other people? See new places? Get out into the wilderness or explore a city? Knowing your strengths will help you decide on the type of walk you want to do.If making friends and socializing is your goal, call up your friends and schedule walks with them. Ask your friends where they like to walk and go there, since this will introduce you to new places. Go online and look up your local mall or shopping center. Many malls have groups that come every day, or every weekend, to “walk the mall. 34.From the benefits to your heart to your overall happiness, walking is just plain good for you.This month pick up a map and start walking.35.A.Headed to a new city?B.It’s good for our bodies and great for our waistlines.C.This month, why not focus on walking with a purpose?D.These groups are always happy to include one more walker!E.You might find open groups of dog walkers at your local park.F.It’s a fantastic way to get to know the world, using your own two feet.G.Ask yourself, what do you want to get out of walking aside from the health benefits?四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面短文,在空白处填入 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Rioghna, a junior at Rochester Mayo High School, had spring sports to play. Hannah, a senior at University of Chicago, was going to have a spring break in Aruba. However, both were canceled because of COVID-19. But they soon recovered and now they are sitting at home, solving Rochester's problemsin their way. Pointing to the computer screen, Hannah tells her sister, “She is a nurse and her child needs to be matched.”The two sisters birthed their plan last Saturday on the drive home from picking up Hannah in Chicago. As more medical workers were sent to work, fighting against the fierce pandemic (流行病), the sisters knew many of their families would need childcare. At the same time, teens throughout Rochester were off school. So on Sunday, Hannah and Rioghna launched Step Up To Sit. Already they’ve paired more than 40 families with sitters.“The young people in the community are stepping up to do their part,” Hannah says, “We are delighted that we’re having an impact on people’s lives in this hard time.” For the last four days, 160 teens have registered to help, most willing to work free if paired with a family in need. With more and more teens joining in, the two sisters decide to launch Step Up To Shop, a platform for teens to deliver groceries to seniors.Rioghna acknowledges people of her age get a bad reputation as smartphone-addicted and selfish. The Pittock sisters are proving otherwise.“Amid the pandemic, people should be allowed to be upset and allowed to be a little bit down about the upset in their lives, but it’s about something bigger and recognizing we all have our part to play here,” Rioghna says.4. Why did the two sisters feel sorry for themselves?A.T hey would join in activities separately.B.They had to give up their planned activities.C.They were infected with COVID-19 seriously.D.T heir parents were sent to battle COVID-19.5.

What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.S martphone addiction makes teens selfish.B.The Pittock sisters kept a low profile.C.People can do nothing against pandemic.D.T here is some misunderstanding of teens.CThe low percentage of women in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) careers is often attributed (归因于)to men being believed to be better at the sort of thinking those fields require. Though studies have debunked the view, they have largely been based on results acquired from various several standardized tests. Now, researchers from Pennsylvania’s Carnegie Mellon University have found evidence that is hard to overlook: MRI (磁共振成像) proves that young girls and boys use the same mechanisms and networks in the brain to solve math problems.The groundbreaking study to evaluate the biological gender differences in themath talent of young children was led by the university’s professor of neuroscience, Jessica Cantlon. For their study, the team selected 104 young children, between 3 and 10 years old, divided almost equally by gender. The scientists used a functional MRI to observe their brain activity as they engaged in math tasks. These included watching age-appropriate educational videos and doing math exercises such as counting and addition, as well as reading for comparison.“We looked at which areas of the brain respond more strongly to mathematics content in the videos and tasks, compared to non-math content like reading or the alphabet, ”Cantlon said. “When we do that in little girls, we see a particular network of the brain respond, and when we do that same analysis in boys, we see the exact same regions.”So why do girls and young women tend to avoid math and STEM careers in general? Cantlon thinks it may be rooted in social and cultural conventions. Previous studies have indicated that parentstend to spend more time with young boys in play that inspires spatial cognition (空间认知) — such as toys that involve learning number skills and shapes and solving puzzles. Educators werealso observed to spend more time with boys during math class.8. What does the underlined word “debunked” in paragraph 1 mean?A. Disproved.B. Supported.C. Confirmed.D. Overlooked.9. What does paragraph 2 mainly focus on?A. The purpose of the research.B. The process of the research.C. The participants of the research.D. The findings of the research.10. What contributes to the lack of women in STEM careers?A. Mental capacity.B. Gender difference.C. Traditional prejudice.D. Family background.11. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. MRI-A Great Helper in ResearchB. Toys-Boosters for STEM PotentialC. Boys and Girls: Equally Talented in MathD. STEM Careers: Calling for More WomenDAlgorithms (算法) affect nearly every part of a person’s experience on the Internet. Search engines are most people’s entry to the Internet. If a person wants to find information about something, they usually start with a search bar. As soon as they start typing or choosing links, the algorithm starts gathering data about every choice users make and uses that data to try to find the websites or information that most directly relate to what the user is looking for.The problem with algorithms is that they can limit the kinds of information people see, says MacMillan, a leading researcher with Project Information Literacy (能力). He argues this can be harmful to people’s critical thinking and lead them to believe that only one point of view is correct.Companies also pay to post advertisements for products that could relate to users’ search data. For example, if you search for places to take a vacation, you will likely start to see ads for travel companies, flights or hotels.Renee Hobbs, director of the Media Education Lab at the University of Rhode Island, however, argues that algorithms are not all bad. She says search engine algorithms can help you find what might be the most useful information faster. But she says it is in the interests of Internet companies to keep users on the Internet for as long as possible so they see more ads.The current generation of young people grow up using the Internet and they are prone (易于遭受) to distrustful information. That is why schools must train students how to use the Internet more wisely in their studies. It is the duty of education to keep students informed about the world around them. Yet it is not the duty of education alone. And lawmakers should consider increasing data protection rules. Individuals can also use a wide variety of websites to avoid algorithmic controls.12. How do algorithms affect users’ Internet experience?A. They lead to slower Internet connection.B. They block ads for users automatically.C. They always help users get reliable links.D. They determine the content users receive.13. What is Hobbs’ attitude to algorithms?A.D oubtful.B. Supportive.C. Objective.D. Indifferent.14. What can be concluded from the last paragraph?A. Young people fall victim to the Internet.B. Data protection rules are already enough.C. Education is fully responsible for algorithmic controls.D. Joint efforts are needed to handle algorithmic controls.15. Which column of a magazine is the text most likely from?A. Science.B. Entertainment.C. Advertisement.D. Fashion.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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。

This year marks the 32nd Harbin International Ice and Snow Sculpture Festival (January﹣March), when massive frozen structures rise and are lit up , transforming the city into a winter wonderland.Lyon, FranceParis may be called the City of Light, but every December , light takes center stage in Lyon, France's second﹣largest city. That's when the annual Festival of Lights (Dec ember 5﹣8)takes over, with more than 70 light installations that transfor m the city's streetscapes into modern works of art.

Aside from its delicate dining , the city also has great cocktail bars where you can taste cl assic or contemporary takes on the Pisco Sour. Combine th at with the oceanfront setting and temperatures in the 80s, a nd you'll understand why Lima should no longer be ignored thi s winter.Vermont, USWinter in Vermont means skiing and snowboarding. This year, many resorts have greatly upgraded their snowmaking abilities as part of a $15 million statewide program that replac ed many outdated snow guns with new, low﹣energy models. These new machines will also improve the q uality of snow surfaces and lengthen the season, meaning t his will be one of the best winters for skiing and riding in Verm ont in recent memory.(1)What similarities do the first two places have?A.They are decorated with lights.B.

I was 18,I'd been working for my dad's restaurant in Milan and I wanted a new experience. My friend from home lived in London an d he used to tell me how incredible it was. I was really bored and so I took my luggage and left.I was so lost when I arrived at Stansted. To me, Englishsounded like Chinese. I only arrived with a few hundred pou nds. I lived with my friend in east London for a while. I coul dn't find a job for a month. Finally I found a waiter role in a r estaurant. At the time, I had nothing else going on in my lif e. I used to get up, go to work, and sleep. It was so bori ng. Then one day on my lunch break, I saw a Gymbox.When I took a look in, there was an amazing Muay Thai. I used to do boxing when I was 15 but I wasn't that serious abo ut it. There and then I joined the gym and signed up to the T hai boxing team.I fell in love with it. I never missed a session. I started tr aining a lot and the head coach said to me one day, "Do you want to fight?" I knew that's what I wanted to do. He put me in competition s and I won my first nine amateur games. After watching me progress, they offered to help me fight professionally. Ho wever, at one point I had a motorcycle crash and was out for 18 months. This year I've fought in Milan and London. I'd say I'm about 12 fights away from becoming a winner.Sometimes I can't believe how far I've come from that day I arrived in England. I think everything that's happened has b een because I'm committed. But anyone could do it. If you put in 100%, you'll get there. I'm just happy because I dida positive thing with my life. It feels good.(1)What had the writer done before he came to London?A.He had worked in a restaurant.B.He had been a professional coach.C.He had worked in a company.D.He had done nothing but travel around.(2)Which of the following can describe the writer's Chinese?A.He was good at it.B.

There were no fights in the 18 months.13.(8分)Dog eyesight declines with age. Injuries and ailments can cl oud their vision. Zero was a highly trained, driven alert dog . So, at competitions, when he started running into obsta cles and falling off the ends of teeter﹣totters(跷跷板), his owner, San Francisco﹣area dog trainer Dianne Morey, was concerned.As time passed, she noticed a pattern. The problems on ly occurred at competitions held in horse arenas, where yell ow obstacles blended into the color of the sand covering the fl oor. Concerned about his eyesight, Morey took Zero to a v et, who diagnosed him with a genetic condition. Morey fou nd the diagnosis "heartbreaking." After one last competition ﹣ which he won﹣ Zero retired. In the time since, he's led a life full of activiti es like dock diving and hiking, where poor vision is less dan gerous. While there's no cure for his disease, protective ey ewear has helped keep him safe while being active.On average, dogs develop nearsightedness or farsightedness less often than humans, says Alexandra vander Woerd t at Animal Medical Center in New York City. However, the ir eyesight also declines with age. Injuries and some diseas es such as glaucoma(青光眼) can cloud their vision. Thinking back, Morey realizes some behaviors ﹣ for instance, the way Zero poked his nose before entering a gate ﹣ were signshis vision was impaired.Identifying vision issues in dogs isn't as easy as with huma ns. Dogs don't bark wrong letters on the eye chart, and the y're very good at adapting. Treatments for eye problems ma y include eyedrops, medications or surgery. Eyewear can also play a role in treating or preventing many issues. Many dogs don't like eyewear at first. Zero was an exception, tha nks to his training in agility and tricks, Morey says.(1)What made Dianne Morey concerned?A.Her trained dog Zero fell off in competitions.B.She was badly hurt by a dog in a competition.C.She found her eyesight was declining with age.D.Her trained dog Zero wasn't as clever as before.(2)What can we know from the second paragraph?A.Zero is retiring soon.B.Zero's disease can't be cured.C.Zero got the disease from his birth.D.Zero has recovered from his poor eyesight.(3)Which of the following can replace the word "blended" in the s econd paragraph?A.added.B.missed.C.needed.D.mixed.(4)What makes it difficult to identify dogs' vision problems?A.They are too fierce to control.B.They don't like to wear eyewear.C.They adapt to the poor sight easily.D.They bark wrong letters on the eye chart.14.(8分)The third﹣generation hybrid rice which was developed by Yuan Longpin g, the "father of hybrid rice",and his team underwent its first public yield(产量)monitoring from Monday to Tuesday and achieved high output . The final yield of the tested variety, G3﹣1S/P19, came to 1046.3 kg per mu (about 667 square met ers), based on two plots of land in Qingzhu Village under t he city of Hengyang in central China's Hunan Province."Some previous high﹣yielding hybrid rice varieties in China took 160 to even 180 da ys from sowing to harvesting, while the figure was shortened to around 125 days for the new variety. This is one of the m ost important characteristics of the third﹣generation hybrid rice that can reduce the use of pesticides a nd fertilizers, thus reducing cost and improving production ef ficiency." said Qian Qian, the deputy director of the China National Rice Research Institute.Unlike the previous two generations that required a large a mount of water and fertilizers as well as demanding growing c onditions and technological support, the third﹣generation hybrid rice is easier to be cultivated by ordinary far mers. So the soil, altitude and climate of the test site were not "ideal conditions" carefully selected beforehand but were close to the paddies of ordinary farmers.Nowadays, China's average yield of rice is about 500 kg per mu. Ordinary farmers can produce 600kg to 700 kg of rice per mu by growing some excellent second﹣generation hybrid rice varieties. However, under the same planting conditions and environment, the yield of the third﹣generation hybrid rice could reach 800 kg per mu. China no w feeds around 20 percent of the world's population with less than 9 percent of the world's arable(可耕种的)land.At present, Yuan's team has nine third﹣generation hybrid rice combinations under trial, which are ex pected to achieve commercial seed production in the followin g three to four years and hope to apply the technology into th e research of sea rice. The third﹣generation hybrid rice has the comprehensive strength to pro mote a greener and more sustainable development of China's rice production with higher quality and yield.(1)What feature of the new hybrid rice does Qian Qian mainly tal k about?A.It saves a lot more water.B.It achieves a higher yield.C.It saves much more farmland.D.It has a shorter growing period.(2)Why is the new hybrid rice not tested in ideal areas?A.The ordinary farmers master planting technology.B.The researchers want to reduce the experiment cost.C.The growing conditions the new hybrid rice needs are sim ple.D.The previous rice farming provides researchers with exper ience.(3)What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?A.The high output of the third﹣generation hybrid rice.B.The promising future of the new hybrid rice variety.C.The advanced technology of the research on hybrid rice.D.The differences between the three hybrid rice varieties.(4)Which one could be the best title of the text?A.The Development of China's RiceB. The Contribution of the Great ScientistC.The High Yield of the New Hybrid RiceD. The Way to Feed the World's Population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.15.(10分)China has been the birthplace of many of the world's greatest inventions. It was, for example, the first country to produc e paper money. Before the invention of paper money and co ins, people used many different kinds of things for buying an d selling.(1).This exchange of goods and service s for other goods and services is called bartering.(2) In 1200 BC, people in China began to use sh ells as money.

It was not long before t he Chinese made round coins out of metal.(4). B y 500 BC,metal coins had begun to appear in countries like Persia and Greece, and later in the Roman Empire.About 1000 years later, leather was used as money in Chi na, and in 806 AD, the first paper banknotes were produced by the Chinese people.(5)A.People also began collecting foreign coins as souvenirs.B.However, as economies developed, such exchanges b ecame impractical.C.It was still many years before paper currency appeared in Europe.D.They also used tiny shells as money for buying and sellin g.E.As time went by, trade between countries increased.F.During that time, for example, buying a chicken might c ost several potatoes.G.The very first coins often had holes in them so that people could string them together.第三部分英语知识运用(共两节,满分 45 分)第一节:完形填空(共 20 小题;每小题 1.5 分,满分 30 分)请阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项.16.(30分)A Single ButterflyIt was a boiling Spring day.

While there's no cure for his disease, protective eye wear has helped keep him safe while being active.On average, dogs develop nearsightedness or farsightedness less often than humans,says Alexandra vander Woerdt at Animal Medical Center in New York City. However, thei r eyesight also declines with age. Injuries and some diseases such as glaucoma(青光眼) can cloud their vision. Thinking back, Morey realizes some behaviors ﹣ for instance, the way Zero poked his nose before entering a gate ﹣ were signshis vision was impaired.Identifying vision issues in dogs isn't as easy as with humans. Dogs don't bark wrong lett ers on the eye chart, and they're very good at adapting. Treatments for eye problems may include eyedrops, medications or surgery. Eyewear can also play a role in treating or pre venting many issues. Many dogs don't like eyewear at first. Zero was an exception, than ks to his training in agility and tricks, Morey says.(1)What made Dianne Morey concerned?A.Her trained dog Zero fell off in competitions.B.She was badly hurt by a dog in a competition.C.She found her eyesight was declining with age.D.Her trained dog Zero wasn't as clever as before.(2)What can we know from the second paragraph?A.Zero is retiring soon.B.Zero's disease can't be cured.。

2020届青岛胶州市实验中学高三英语月考试题及答案解析第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AShopping centers,stadiums and universities may soon have a new tool to help fight crime.ACaliforniacompany called Knightscope says its robots can predict and prevent crime. Knightscope says the goal is to reduce crime by half in areas the robots guard.William Santana Li is the chief executive officer of Knightscope. He says,"These robot security guards will change the world. Our planet has more than seven billion people on it. It's going to quickly get to nine billion people. The security equipmentthat we have globally is just not going to develop that fast. The company's Autonomous Data Machines can become the eyes and ears of law enforcement(执法).""You want them to be machines plus humans. Let. the machines do the heavy and sometimes dangerous work and let the humans do the strategic decision-making work,so it's always working all together."The machines do not carry weapons but they have day and night video cameras which are able to turn 360 degrees and can also sense chemical and biological weapons.Some people may become concerned about their privacy, especially in connection with the video recordings. Some people may worry that such recordings will appear on the Internet. Eugene Volokh, a law professor at the UCLA School of Law, says the machines have to be used in the right way and it will be interesting to see how state laws deal with this kind of video.William Santana Li says there is a long waiting list for the robots in theUS. Workers in the company are working overtime to meet the demands of the market. At least 25 other countries are also interested in these robot security guards.1. What can this new tool do for humans?A. Make strategic decisions.B. Keep watching day and night.C. Carry heavy weapons.D. Stop crime autonomously.2. Why are some people worried about the new robots?A. Their privacy may be let out.B. The robots are very expensive.C. Robots will replace humans.D. They will be out of work soon.3. Which of the following can be the best title of the text?A. Robots Are Becoming More PopularB. Robots Contribute aLotto the WorldC. Robots Are in Great Demand NowD. Security Robots Could Help Cut CrimeBThe idea of low material desire, low consumption and refusing to work, marry and have children, concluded as a “lying down” lifestyle, recentlystruck a chord withmany young Chinese who are eager to take pause to breathe in this fast-paced and highly-competitive society.Many millennials (千禧一代) and generation Zs complained to the Global Times that burdens, including work stress, family disputes (纷争) and financial strains, have pushed them “against the wall”. They said they hate the “involution (内卷),” joking that they would rather give up some of what they have than get trapped in an endless competition against peers.“Instead of always following the ‘virtues’ of struggle, endure and sacrifice to bear the stresses, they prefer a temporary lying down as catharsis (宣泄) and adjustment,” said a scholar. “It is no wonder that some young people, under the growing pressures from child-raising to paying the mortgage (按揭) today, would try to live in a simple way and leave the worries behind.”Interestingly, the majority of millennials and Gen Zs reached by the Global Times, who claim to be big fans of the lying down philosophy, acknowledged that they only accept a temporary lying down as a short rest. It is true that with the great improvement of living conditions, some Chinese youth have partially lost the spirit of hardship and are not willing to bear too much hard work. But in fact, lying down is not entirely comfortable. Young people who lie down always feel guilty about their constant loss of morale (士气) far beyond their reach.“Young people on campus have both aspirations and confusion about their future, but most of us have rejected setting ourselves up in chains to waste opportunities and challenges,” a postgraduate student told the Global Times. “It’s no use running away. I have to ‘stand up’ and face the reality sooner or later.”4. What does the underlined phrase in paragraph 1 mean?A. Warned.B. Criticized.C. Touched.D. Amused.5. What might have caused the “lying down” lifestyle among the young?A. Improvements in living conditions.B. Growing pressure from family and social life.C. Increasing material possessions from families.D. Temporary adjustment to failure in competitions.6. What’s the scholar’s attitude toward the “lying down” group?A. Understanding.B. Intolerant.C.Supportive.D. Unclear.7. What can be inferred about the young generation from the text?A. They never really drop their responsibilities.B. They really enjoy the “lying down” lifestyle.C. They find their dreams far beyond their reach.D. They would rather escape than take challenges.CAlex Wong, a junior atMarkKeppelHigh SchoolinAlhambra,California, is working hard on his application to a top college. His resume shows off his nearly straight A’s in difficult classes, experience at a summer program atStanfordUniversity, Eagle Scout project and time on the soccer team as well as the school choir. But his steady progress stopped unexpectedly this year. Aiming to open access to college-level Advanced Placement (大学预科) courses, his schoolbegan using a computer-based lottery to give out spaces. Alex got shut out of all three of the courses he requested.The new system caused anger among families whose children failed to get into AP courses, which many consider important to develop advanced skills, improve grade-point averages and allow students to earn college credit, saving them and their families tuition dollars. Students and parents wrote to administrators to complain, circulated a petition (请愿) and launched a Facebook group for trading classes. “I’M DESPERATE! I’LL GIVE YOU FREE FOOD,” one student, Kirk Hum, posted on the 210-member AP Flea Market Facebook group.AP classes have long been held dear by the most talented and ambitious students.But now they are seen as positive for all students who are willing to push themselves – and schools are increasingly viewing access to them as a basic educational right. But this change has brought challenges.Miracle Vitangcol, a junior atDowntownMagnetsHigh Schoolwith average grades and test scores, is failing herAP US history class. She said she can’t handle the rapid pace and volume of material she needs to remember. But she said she intends to stick it out because the class is teaching her to manage her time, take good notes and work hard. “I’m struggling to adjust,” she said. “But I keep telling myself: ‘It’s OK. You can do it. Just push yourself’.”Some critics worry that the open-access movement is pushing too many unprepared students into AP classes, as shown by higher exam failure rates over the last decade. They also fear that open enrollment (录取) policies are encouraging teachers to weaken courses and give out high grades to students who don’t deserve them. “While expanding access is generally a good thing, we need to make sure we’re not watering down the experience for the high achievers,” said Michael Petrilli, executive vice president of the Thomas B. Fordham Institute, a Washington-based educational policy organization.8. The purpose of the new AP courses system at Alex Wong’s school is to ______.A. make sure all students get access to the AP courses they desire.B. ensure that students have a fair chance to get access to AP courses.C. improve the academic performance of students in AP courses.D. separate high achievers from average students through the new courses.9. According to the article, the AP Flea Market Facebook group is a place where ______.A. students’ parents send their complaints to school administrators.B. students share tips about saving money for college.C. students offer items to trade for the AP courses they need.D. students can find support and guidance on their AP study.10. Which of the following statements would Michael Petrilli agree with?A. Opening AP courses to all students is a bad idea.B. School administrators should maintain high academic standards for AP courses.C. High schools should stop charging students for taking AP courses.D. Access to AP courses is necessary for students applying for top American colleges.11. The author used Miracle Vitangcol’s example to show that ______.A. students need to remember too much in their AP courses.B.AP courses pose a big challenge to unprepared students.C. the secret to success in AP courses is to keep pushing yourself.D. average students don’t deserve their places in AP courses.DNowadays organic food hasbecome a fashion. Organic food sales reached a record of $ 45.2 billion in 2017, making it one of the fastest-growing parts of American agriculture. Some people may buy organic food for these reasons like resource cycling and biodiversity, but most people may choose organic food because they think it's healthier. While a small number of studies have shown relationships between eating organic food and reducing risks of being ill, no studies, up to now, have answered the question whether eating organic food can improve health.According to the United States Department of Agriculture(USDA), organic food does not suggest anything about health. In 20155 Miles McEvoy, then chief of the National Organic Program for the USDA, refused to admit any health benefits of organic food, saying the question has nothing to do with the National Organic Program. Instead, the USDA thinks that organic refers to a production method that increases cycling of resources keeps ecological balance, and protects biodiversity.I'm an environmental health scientist who has spent over 20 years studying pesticides that do harm to human beings. Several years ago, I was part of the study on whether an organic diet can reduce pesticide exposure. This study focused on a group of pesticides which have always been harmful to children's brain development. We found that children who ate traditional diets had nine times higher exposure to these pesticides than children who ate organic diets.Last month, I published a small study that suggested a path forward to answering the question whether eating organic food actually improves health. My study got a lot of attention. While the results were novel, they didn't answer the big question. As I toldThe New York Timesin 2003, “What does this really mean for the safety of my kids? But we don't know. Nobody does. It was true then, and it's still true now.”12. Why do most people prefer to buy organic food?A. For its health benefits.B. For biodiversity.C. For its delicious taste.D. For resource cycling.13. What does the USDA suggest about organic food?A. It can improve people's health.B. It is produced in an environment-friendly way.C. It can reduce risks of being ill.D. It has nothing to do with the National Organic Program.14. What can be concluded from the author's study?A. Pesticides don't harm children's brain.B. Traditional diets benefit people's health.C. Organic diets can reduce pesticide exposure.D. The results are meaningful to children's safety.15. What is the best title for the text?A.What Is Organic Food?B. Is Organic Food Healthier?C. How Should We Avoid Pesticides?D. What Are the Benefits of Organic Food?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。

Their concerns reach far beyond the classroom to others all over the globe.The school of the future will be an amazing melting pot of different peoples coming together to solve real-world problems.Will they even be called “schools” in the future?The teacher-student relationship is changing. Teachers are acting more as helpers rather than keepers of all knowledge. Students are driving their own education to the path that they feel best fits them.

They’ll want to know how well they work in a team.What will problem-solving look like in the future?Information from the Internet is accessible everywhere and at unimaginable speeds.

Bui now researchers are finding that video games can actually change us for the better and improve both our body and mind.Games can help to develop physical skills. Pre-school children who played interactive games have been shown to have improved motor skills, for example they can kick, catch and throw a ball better than children who don’t play video games. A study found that those who played video games were 27 percent faster and made 37 percent fewer errors than those who didn't.Games also benefit a variety of brain functions, including decision-making. People who play action-based games make decisions 25 percent faster than others, according to one study. It was also found that the best gamers can make choices and act on them up to six times a second, four times faster than most people. In another study by researchers from the University of Rochester in New York, experienced gamers were shown to be able to pay attention to more than six things at once without getting confused, compared with the four that most people can normally keep in mind.There is also evidence that gaming can help with psychological problems. At the University of Auckland in New Zealand, researchers asked 94 young people diagnosed with depression to play a 3D fantasy game called SPARX and in many cases, the game reduced symptoms of depression more than conventional treatment.8.

2020年青岛胶州市实验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AIf your Spanish is good enough, many Spanish gossip magazines being published around the world will provide entertainment and, at the same time, help you practice your language.Diez Minutos: The magazine is a classic Spanish gossip feast with dailynews based on many stories of love, separation, divorce and death. The two main parts are headlined "love" and "partners". They also have an online version of the magazine for serious gossip addicts.Hola: It isSpain's top weekly magazine and the leader of the gossip world. It contains many pictures and a round-up of well-known and less well-known nobles and people in show business. Apart from edited highlights from the present and past issues, there is a report of the week and photo of the week. There is also a French version called OhLa!Revista CUORE: As the third best-selling gossip magazine inSpain, it is mainly aimed at younger teenage readers who look not only for current celebrity gossip, but also for fashion and TV news. It uses a lot of oral terms.Revista SEMANA: It is a Spanish magazine covering the latest news on the famous inSpainandHollywood.

It is also exported to certain parts of theUnited States, bringing together strange and wonderful news from around the world and the famous Latin community.1.Which magazine is also published in French?A.MarujeoB.Revista SEMANA.C.Revista CARAS.D.Hola.2.How many of the magazines mentioned in the text can be read on the Internet?A.Four.B.Three.C.Two.D.One.3.What can be learned from the passage?A.Diez Minutos presents its readers weekly picturesB.Revista CUORE can help improve one's spoken Spanish.C.Revista SEMANA is intended for readers in teensD.Revista CARAS mainly reports news fromLatin America.BA lot of us lose life’s tough battles by starting a frontal attack—when a touch of humor might well enable us to win.Consider the case of a young friend of mine,who hita traffic jam on his way to work shortly after receiving an ultimatum about beinglate on the job.Although there was a good reason for Sam’s a being late—serious illness at home—he decided that this by-now-familiar excuse wouldn’t work any longer.His supervisor was probably already pacing up and down preparing a dismissal speech.Yes,the boss was.Sam entered the office at 9:35.The place was as quiet as a locker room;everyone was hard at work.Sam’s supervisor came up to him.Suddenly,Sam forced a grin and stretched out his hand.“How do you do!” he said.“I’m Sam Maynard.I’m applying for a job,which,I understand,became available just 35 minutes ago.Does the early bird get the worm?”The room exploded in laughter.The supervisor“clamped off”a smile and walked back to his office.Sam Maynard had saved his job—with the only tool that could win,a laugh.Humor is a most effective,yet frequently neglected,means of handling the difficult situations in our lives.It can be used for patching up differences,apologizing,saying “no”,criticizing,getting the other fellow to do what you want without his losingface.For some jobs,it’s the only tool that can succeed.It is a way to discuss subjects so sensitive that serious dialog may start a quarrel.For example,many believe that comedians on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerancethan people in any other forum.4. Why was Sam late for his job?A. Because he was ill.B. Because he got up late.C. Because he was caught in a traffic jam.D. He was busy applying for a new job.5. The main idea of this passage is ________.A. Sam Maynard saved his job with humorB. humor is important in our livesC. early bird gets the wormD. humor can solve racial discriminations6. The phrase “clamped off” in Paragraph 3 means ________.A tried to hold back B. tried to setC. chargedD. gave out7. Which of the following statements can we infer from the passage?A. Many lose life’s battles for they are lacking in a sense of humor.B. It wasn’t the first time that Sam came late for his work.C. Sam was supposed to come to his office at 8:30.D. Humor is the most effective way of solving problems.CA trip to thelibrary was like a great journey to a different country. To get there, we had to walk a mile. But our weekly journeys to the library were a piece of perfection. I had around me at one time all the people I loved best-my father and mother and brothers and sister--and all the things I loved best- quiet, space and books.I read a lot of books about science: not the spaceships my brothers preferred, but the birds and the bees--literally. I brought home a book of birds and searched the trees for anything other than robins (知更鸟). I went through a phrase of loving books with practical science experiments and used up a whole bottle of white vinegar by pouring it on the sides of our apartment building to prove that it was constructed of limestone (石灰石).One Saturday, as I wandered through the young adult section, I saw a title: Little Women, by Lousia May Alcott. I had learned from experience that titles weren’t everything. A book that sounded great on the shelf could be dull once you got it home. So I sat in a chair near the shelves to skim the first paragraphs.I read and read and read Little Women until it was time to walk home, and, except for a few essential interruptions like sleeping and eating, I did not put it down until the end. Even the freedom to watch weekend television held no appeal for me in the wake of Alcott' s story. It was about girls, for one thing, girls who could almost be like me, especially Jo. I had found someone who thought and felt the way I did.8. What can we say about the author’s family?A. They enjoyed traveling abroad.B. They were library frequenters.C. They were very fond of walking.D. They led a perfectly quiet life.9. What does the author mainly want to show in paragraph 2?A. Her different hobbies from her brothers.B. How she conducted science experiments.C. Why she loved books about the birds and the bees.D. Her reading interests during a particular period of time.10. What opinion does the author hold on books?A. Book titles can sometimes be misleading.B. Science books are as interesting as novels.C. The first few paragraphs of a book are attractive.D. Books seem duller when read in libraries than at home.11. How would the author describe Little Women?A. It helped her to discover her true character.B. It made her forget about food and sleep.C. It inspired confidence in her.D. It kept her absorbed.DSophie became friends with the gray squirrels during her first week atPennState, after spotting them running around and wondering what they would look like with tiny hats on their heads. Today, everyone at the university knows her as the “Squirrel Girl”.Sophie tried bringing them food, and gradually they began to trust her. She managed to put a hat on a squirrel and take a picture. Thinking that her colleagues could do with something to lift their spirits, she started posting similar photos on Facebook. The response was greatly positive, and before long Sophie and her squirrels became an Internetsensation.Growing up in a neighborhood outside ofState College, Sophie was always fond of birds and animals around her home, but she didn't interact with people very much. She was later diagnosed (诊断) with Asperger's syndrome, but the squirrels changed that. “The squirrels help me break the ice, because I'll be sitting here patting a squirrel and other people will come over and well just start like feeding the squirrels together and chatting about them,” she said, “I am a lot more outgoing.”And in case you're wondering how Sophie is able to get the squirrels to do what she wants for her photos, it has a lot to do with food. For example, whenever she wants them to hold or play with something, she puts peanut butter on the prop (道具), and they'll grab it. In the beginning, she would throw peanuts up the trees on campus and invite the squirrels to come down and get them, but they hesitated to approach her. She had the patience to earn their trust, though.This year, Sophie is graduating with a degree in English and wildlife sciences. She wants to be a science writerand educate people on how to preserve the environment. As for her furry friends, Sophie plans to stay in the area and visit them as often as she can.12.

2020年青岛胶州市实验中学高三英语三模试卷及答案

2020年青岛胶州市实验中学高三英语三模试卷及答案第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AOur Teen Summer Spanish Program is two weeks of fun, educational excitement that helps students learn Spanish fast. Our Spanish summer program allows our students to learn from highly trained, certified teachers and be absorbed in the language and theculture of Costa Rica.Features include:* Intensive(强化的) daily Spanish classes* Extracurricular classes in dance, cooking, music, and handiwork* Outdoor activities including hiking, camping, rafting, and ziplining(高空滑索)* Homestay with a local Costa Rican family* Volunteer work in needy neighborhoodsOur Teaching Methods:We are proud to use TPRS---Total Physical Response Storytelling---in our curriculum. This innovative method uses strange and amusing stories to teach new vocabulary, increase fluency, and get students involved by giving them the opportunity to alter the details themselves. Because of the silliness, creativity, and repetition involved, TPRS allows students to learn easily and remember information effortlesslyMemorizing vocabulary and listening to lectures on grammar are slow, inefficient ways to learn a new language. The best way to truly learn and commit new material to memory is through conversation. In our Spanish classes, students can expect to speak up to 80% of each class. By speaking in the new language freely and consistently, students can see progress faster because they are using the new grammar and vocabulary that they have learned at the same time. This helps the brain remember the new words and grammar structures for future use, making it much easier to progress.1.What does the program do?A.It offers weekly Spanish classesB.It focuses more on outdoor activitiesC.It gives teachers a chance to receive trainingD.It provides activities about the Spanish culture2.What is the best way to learn a language according to the text?A.Memorizing a larger vocabularyB.Speaking more in the new language.C.Mastering more grammar structuresD.Writing stories to share with others3.What is the purpose of the text?A.To employexperienced Spanish teacherB.To hire foreign volunteers for a programC.To attract teen foreigners to a programD.To introduce language learning methodsBScientists have recently discovered thatAndean condors (秀鹫)— some of the world’s largest birds——barely flap their wings at all while flying. Instead, they use rising air currents to remain in the air for hours.The Andean condor is the world’s largest soaring bird. They can weigh up to 15 kilograms. Their wings, when spread out, measure up to three meters. Their main food source is the meat of large animals which have died. Soaring high in the sky allows condors to easily spot possible meals on the ground.Scientists worked together to study the flight patterns of these huge birds and how much effort the birds use when flying. To study the birds while they were in the sky, the researchers attached special devices which could record every beat of their wings.The scientists learned that most of the condors’ flapping— over 75%— came when the birds were taking off. Once in the sky, the birds flew for very long periods of time without flapping at all. In fact, they only flapped their wings for 1% of the time they were in the air. One bird flew for over five hours without flapping, covering nearly 117miles.Soaring without flapping is important because birds bum energy every time they flap their wings.The birds’ soaring isn’t magic. They use the fact that hot air rises to keep themselves up. As hot air rises, it often creates “thermals”— currents of warm air moving upward. The condors soar by making use of these thermals. The tricky part is finding thermals and moving between them.When birds are forced to land and take off again often, it costs them a lot of energy. The researchers learned that to avoid having to land, the condors did most of their non-take-off flapping when they were closer to the ground and looking for a new thermal.The scientists reported that even though all of the condors they studied were young, they knew well how to take advantage of the air currents.4. What can we learn about the Andean condor from the text?A. They live mairly on small animals.B. Their wingspan is at least three meters.C. They rely on hot air to remain high in the sky.D. They are the birds with the strongest flying ability.5. Why was the equipment tied to the birds?A. To measure how far they could fly without flapping.B. To keep track of how often they flapped while flying.C. To calculate the energy required for their flight.D. To confirm their flight patterns.6. Which of the following acts consumes the most energy for a condor?A. Hunting for food.B. Flying in the sky.C. Getting off the ground.D. Landing on the ground.7. What can we infer from the text?A. Condors flap the most when looking for a new thermal.B. No condor can fly for more than five hours without flapping.C. Condors don’t need to look for thermals when soaring in the sky.D. Soaring by using thermals is probably a natural ability of condors.CMy wife and I recently completed a day-long tour of the Great Wall with Jessie. In addition to being very knowledgeable about the history of theareas that we toured, she spoke excellent English and was able to answer all of our questions. Her driver was very experienced and polite, and we really enjoyed being able to have a customized tour that avoided the tourist traps and forced shopping that seem to be a part of the larger group tours.The attractions themselves were fantastic. I was a little worried that the snowy weather might impact our trip to the Great Wall, but everything went fine, and there weren’t many people out at all that day. I suggest wearing strong shoes—the Great Wall is really a hike. And in snowy or rainy days, the surfaces are pretty slippery (滑的)! Seeing this area in winter was really unique, and the snow made for great pictures. Jessie kept us entertained withstories and facts about the construction of the Wall, and always pointed out great spots for taking pictures. Even though she’s in fantastic shape, she cared about our level of fitness and often stopped to let us catch our breath.When we got back to our hotel, Jessie gave us a great recommendation for dinner and some tips for our planned stops the next day. If I find myself in Beijing in the future, I will certainly be contacting Jessie for more tour opportunities, and I’ve already recommended her to some friends who are visiting the area later in the year. I can’t say enough about how kind and knowledgeable she was, and she really gave us a great tour experience.8. What can we infer about Jessie?A. She is a tour advisor.B. She is a tour guide.C. She is a foreign traveler.D. She is a skilled driver.9. When did the writer visit the Great Wall?A. In spring.B. In summer.C. In autumn.D. In winter.10. What did the writer think of his tour?A. Adventurous.B. Disappointing.C. Satisfactory.D. Improvable.11. What is the probable title for the text?A. A Wonderful Tour Day with JessieB. An Extraordinary Tour CompanyC. The Great Wall, an Excellent AttractionD. Jessie, a Kind and Knowledgeable GuideDIn ancient times, Chinese used plant leaves or bird feathers as a fan during the summer time. This was the earliest form of the fan. The first real fan was made back in the era of Yao and Shun period thousands of years ago. Since then,Chinese-made fans have become a vital part of Chinese art and culture. At the beginning, the fan functioned as a tool to generate a current of air in the hot weather. Now electric fans such as ceiling fans and other technological breakthroughs have taken the place.Long ago, fans caught the attention of ancient Chinese artists by chance. Thereafter, a unique fan art gradually took shape in the history of Chinese culture. Fan art usually includes Chinese calligraphy, paintings, orpoems on the sectors(扇区). Special skills are needed to write or paint on them.Due to its history and partly because of its unique shape, Chinese would soon develop the tradition of using fans as ornaments(装饰品). Fans are made in different sizes and different color1 s to meet the needs of each request. Other Chinese ornaments, such as the Chinese knot, the green jade, and the Spring Festival picture, are often combined in each design.The value of fans depends mainly on the materials used and the level of craftsmanship that is involved during the process. Feather, paper, jade, bamboo and silk have all been used as ideal materials to make fans. Ancient Chinese even made iron fans to serve as deadly weapons(武器)in Chinese martial arts. Fans made by famous craftsmen are often characterized by pretty designs and detailed workmanship, and thus become favorites of collectors. Fans with masterpiece fine art like calligraphy or paintings are even more valuable.12.What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. The origin of fans.B. The materials of fans.C. The popularity of fans.D. The production of fans.13. Why do Chinese use fans as ornaments?A. They are made of valuable materials.B. They reflect the beauty of Chinese culture.C. They convey literature works on the sectors.D. They are often combined with other ornaments.14. Which of the following makes a fan favored by most collectors?A. Its advanced function.B. Its complex character.C. Its artistic handicraft.D. Its various applications.15. What can we infer about the fan from the text?A. Chinese send fans to their friends as gifts.B. Chinese ornaments can meet different requests.C. Traditional fans have lost their functional value.D. The fan plays different roles with the change of time.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。

Most of the information is free, but for $ 20.00 per year, you can purchase a membership that allows you to have access to the site without the advertising. The pages here are great. There are color1 ed pages and worksheets for toddlers (学步儿童) and school-age children.StarfallStarfall is another good educational website for small children. Teachers often use this website in classrooms. It emphasizes reading skills for early learners. The website is aimed at first-grade-level learners, but it has tools that can help all children from pre-K to second grade. The website has reading activities, worksheets to download, and a store where you can purchase educational materials for your children.Sesame Street WorkshopKids loveSesame Street, and it is always educational. This is one of the funniest websites online for children because it is very well animated and has great sound effects. The website has games and stories for small kids, and they can create letters at the post office and mail them to their favorite characters.1. Why does Enchanted Learning offer purchasing memberships?A. Charging for the information.B. Charging for downloading materials.C. Giving access to the site without the ads.D. Providing unlimited search for more pages.2. Where can you buy educational materials for your children?A. Enchanted LearningB. StarfallC. Sesame Street WorkshopD. Colored pages3. What is the purpose of this text?A. To introduce.B. To discuss.C. To persuade.D. To educate.BA company called Neuralink has shared a video which appears to show a monkey playing a video game, but what makes the video even stranger is that themonkey is playing the video game with just its mind.Neuralink is a company owned by Elon Musk, which is working to develop devices that could allow people to control things using just their brains. The monkey in the video is called Pager, having special "Link" devices inside his brain. These devices are connected to 2,048 wires which lead to the parts of Pager's brain that control movements of the arms and hands.Scientists taught Pager to play a video game using a banana juice as a reward when he playedthe game correctly. Soon Pager was eager to play well in order to get more smoothie. At first, Pager controlled the video game using a joystick (操纵杆). But as Pager played, his Link devices wirelessly sent out information about the signals his brain was using to control his arms and hands. Neuralink's scientists recorded all of these signals.Then they used computers to match up the signals from Pager's brain to the movements that his hands were actually doing. This was challenging work and the scientists counted on artificial intelligence (AI) to help them decode (解码) Pager's brain signals.The next step was to have a computer make moves in the video game as if Pager had actually moved the joystick. If Pager thought about moving the joystick up, the computer would send an "up"signal to the video game. Thus Pager was able to play the video game using just his brain.When people are paralyzed (瘫痪的), it's often because the brain has lost the ability to send signals to nerves and muscles in certain parts of the body. Neuralink hopes that one day, its system will be ableto send this information in a different way, allowing paralyzed people to use their arms or legs again.4. What does Neuralink aim to do?A. To make monkeys much smarter.B. To solve complex problems with monkeys.C. To create a device linking monkeys and people.D. To make people control things with their brains.5. How does the author introduce the process of the research?A. In order of time.B. By making a comparison.C. By giving examples.D. In order of space.6. What played an important role in the success of the research?A. The joystick.B. Artificial intelligence.C. The video game.D. The banana smoothie.7. Which is the most suitable title of the test?A. Neuralink Posts an Unusual VideoB. Disabled People Have a Bright FutureC. Monkey Plays Video Games with His MindD. Neuralink, a Creative and Competitive CompanyCThere is an old Chinese proverb that states “One generation plants the trees; another gets the shade,” and this is how it should be with mothers and daughters. The relationship between a mother and a daughter is sometimes confusing. The relationship can be similar to friendship. However, the mother and daughter relationship has unique characteristics that distinguish it from a friendship. These characteristics include responsibilities and unconditional love, whichprecludemothers and daughters from being best friends.Marina, 27 years old, said, “I love spending time with my mom, but I wouldn’t consider her my best friend. Best friends don’t pay for your wedding. Best friends don’t remind you how they carried you in their body and gave you life! Best friends don’t tell you how wise they are because they have been alive at least 20 years longer than you.” This doesn’t mean that the mother and daughter relationship can’t be very close and satisfying. This generation of mothers and adult daughters has a lot in common, which increases the likelihood of shared companionship. Mothers and daughters have always shared the common experience of being homemakers, responsible for maintaining(保持) and passing on family values and traditions. Today contemporary mothers and daughters also share the experience of work and technology, which may bring them even closer together.Best friends may ormay not continue to be best friends, but for better or worse; the mother and daughter relationship is permanent, even if for some unfortunate reason they aren’t speaking. Sometimes this is not an equal relationship. Daughters don’t always feel responsible for their mother’s emotional well-being. But mothers never stop being mothers, which includes frequently wanting to protect their daughters and often feeling responsible for their happiness. The mother and daughter relationship is a relationship that is not replaceable by any other. Mothers always “trump(胜过)” friends.8. What does the underlined word “preclude” in paragraph 1 probably mean?A. differ.B. benefit.C. prevent.D. change.9. What can we learn from what Marina said?A. Best friends will not spend money on her wedding.B. Best friends will not remind her of important issues in life.C. Her mother is wiser on account of her age.D. Her mother is definitely not her best friend.10. Why can a mother and a daughter build a even closer relationship today?A. Because they share advanced technology with each other.B. Because they work together to support the whole family.C. Because they experience the same values and traditions.D. Because they have common experience in life and work.11. What is the text mainly about?A. How to build a good mother and daughter relationship.B. A mother-daughter relationship is irreplaceable.C. Mothers want to be daughters’ friends.D. A daughter is a mother’s best friend.DSome years ago I was offered a writing assignment that would require three months of travel through Europe.I had been abroad a couple of times, but I could hardly claim to know my way around the continent. Moreover, my knowledge of foreign languages was limited to a little college French.I hesitated. How would I, unable to speak the language, totally unfamiliar with local geography or transportation system?It seemed impossible, and with considerable regret. Suddenly a thought ran through my mind: you can't learn if you don't try. So I accepted the assignment.There were some bad moments. But by the time I had finished the trip I was an experienced traveler. And ever since, I have never hesitated to head for even the most remote of places, without guides or even advanced bookings, confident that somehow I will manage.The point is that the new, along with the different, is almost scary by definition. But each time you try something, you learn, and as the learning piles up, the world opens to you.I've learned to ski at 40, and flown up the Rhine River in a balloon. And I know I'll go on doing such things. It's not because I'm braver or more daring than others. I'm not. But I'll accept anxiety as another name for challenge and I believe I can accomplish wonders.12. The author accepted the assignment because_________.A. he had never travelled abroad beforeB. he hardly knew any foreign languagesC. he was familiar with any other country in EuropeD. he would learn something new and different by trying13. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The author had been abroad only twice.B. The author thought the trip was hard but worthwhile.C. The author admitted that anything different was terrible.D. The author must be good at doing research and making interviews.14. We can infer from the text that the author is_______.A. awkwardB. generousC. stubbornD. brave15. What's the best title of the text?A. An Interesting Trip AbroadB. My First Writing AssignmentC. Ready to Try and ChallengeD. How to Be Daring and Brave.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。

AOne of the best ways to experience New York City is with a bus tour,rolling between Manhattan neighborhoods,one beautiful block at a time.Here are some best bus tours that NYC offers.Big Bus New YorkThis classic bus tour provides a thorough introduction to Manhattan.Take a seat on the open-air top deck of a double-decker bus(双层公共汽车)instead of traveling by subway.The most popular stops include the 9/11 Memorial,the High Line,5th Avenue shopping and Harlem’s Apollo Theater.For some fresh air,stop in the 843-acre Central Park and go for a walk.The RideClimb aboard The Ride and the bus becomes the theater while the New York City streets are the stage.This 75-min tour combines sightseeing(including landmarks like the Chrysler Building and Carnegie Hall)with live entertainment(both from onboard guides providing fun facts and screening movie clips,and on-the-street performers).Gray Line City Lights TourWitnessing New York City by night is an essential experience when visiting Manhattan.By night,the mainroads,landmarks,and bridges are lit up in breathtaking fashion.There’s no better way to see it than from the open-air top deck.Thisafter-dark tour includes Rockefeller Center and Radio City Music Hall.Open Loop New YorkTake advantage of technology to know exactly when your bus is coming with the “Where’s My Bus?”web page from Open Loop.This bus tour—with an uptown route and downtown route—offers a double—decker experience complete with an audio(录⾳的) guide available in several languages.Attractions across Manhattan include the Empire State Building,the Metropolitan Museum of Art,Times Square,and the High Line.1.What might be your reason for stopping in the 843- acre Central Park?A.To enjoy clean air.B.To visit a theater.C.To do some shopping.D.To visit the 9/11 Memorial.2.Which bus should you take to enjoy live performances?A.Big Bus New York.

A.To call on more people to help Jake.B.To show what is in need for a circus.C.To ask the readers to join in his project.D.To argue circus people should be fairly treated.CThe world’s insects are going down the path of extinction,threateninga“catastrophic collapse of nature’s ecosystems”,according to the first global scientific review.More than 40%of insectspecies are declining and third are endangered,the analysis found.The rate of extinction is eight times faster than that of mammals,birds and reptiles.“It should be of huge concern to all of us,for insects are at the heart of every food web.⼭东省中学联盟They pollinate(授粉)the large majority of plant species,keep the soil healthy,recycle nutrients,control pests,and much more.Love them or 1oathe them,we humans cannot survive without insects,”said Prof Dave Goulson at the University of Sussex in the UK.The analysis,published in the journal Biological Conservation,says intensive(集约型)agriculture is the main driver of the declines,particularly the heavy use of pesticides.Urbanisation and climate change are also significant factors.“If insect species los ses cannot be stopped,this will have catastrophic consequences for both the planet’s ecosystems and for the survival of mankind.It is very rapid.In 10 years you will have a quarter less,in 50 years only half left and in 100 years you will have none,”said r eview author Francisco Sánchez-Bayo,at the University of Sydney,Australia.One of the biggest impacts of insect loss is on many birds,reptiles,amphibians and fish that eat insects.“If this food source is taken away,all these animals starve to death,”he sai d.Such effects have already been seen in Puerto Rico,where a recent study revealed a 98%fall in ground insects over 35 years.Matt Shardlow,at the conservation charity Buglife,said:“It is thoughtful to see this evidence that shows the pitiful state of the world’s insect populations.It is increasingly obvious that the planet’s ecology is breaking and there is a need for a strong and global effort to prevent and change these terrible trends.”8.Why are people worried about the insect decline?A.They are vital to ecosystems.B.They provide food for pests.C.They pollinate all plants.D.They enrich the soil.9.What is the main cause of insect losses?A.More and more trees.B.Restrictions on pesticides.C.Upgrading agriculture.D.Friendly environment.10.Where can you find the exact time of insect losses?A.In paragraph 1.B.In paragraph 2.C.In paragraph 3.D.In paragraph 4.11.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Humans can survive the punishment of natureB.Insect dec lining is breaking nature’s ecosystemsC.Nature’s ecosystems are influenced by humansD.Insects and animals are dying out in Puerto RicoDResearchers from the Water, Peace and Security partnership (WPS) have announced the creation of a global forecasting tool that can predict where conflicts arising from water insecurity are most likely to break out. The system uses artificial intelligence to create patterns from a wide rage of geographical and socio-economic data and can identify potential conflict hotspots up to a year in advance.Susan Schme, a senior lecturer at Delft Institute for Water Education, which leads the WPS, explains predicting these types of conflicts isn’t as simple as it might first appear. It isn’t simply a case of conflicts increasing ev ery time a water security incident occurs. Several regional and cultural factors also play a part, making prediction difficult.The researchers test-ran the AI tool in Mali. They found that it predicted more than three-quarters of the water-related conflicts there. To achieve this, the system is fed with a variety of data. “First there’s the natural side of things—so rainfall data, soil moisture and many other natural factors,” explains Schme. This enables it to identify areas where availability of water is likely to become a concern.“Then we also look at vulnerability in terms of socio-economic and political developments — anything from a regime type to the state of development in a region,” she adds. This additional information is weighed up to det ermine whether it increases or decreases the chance of conflict. Other factors might include whether the water insecurity is likely to affect crops.The tool is just one part of a wider WPS project that aims to increase the availability of information which could help avoid water-related conflicts. Once artificial intelligence has made its predictions the WPS researchers use other analytical tools to zoom-in on a certain region and find out exactly what’s driving water insecurity. This might be decreased rainfall, increasedpopulation, or water might be being diverted away from a community.The designers are now undergoing final tests of the new AI tool to make sure it’s ready for a November launch date. Once widely available, Schme hopes that it will be used by local governments and also by international organizations with an interest in maintaining global stability.12. What is the function of the tool?A. Collecting all kinds of data.B. Predicting conflict hotspots.C. Ensuring security of water.D. Stopping breakout of water pipe.13. How did the AI tool work in Mali?A. The government discourages it.B. More improvement is needed.C. It works quite effectively.D. It attracts public attention.14. What is related to the water-related conflicts in Mali?A. Its climate.B. Its lifestyle.C. Its agriculture.D. Its population.15. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. People’s attitude to the AI tool.B. Study process of the AI tool.C. Designers of the AI tool.D. The future of the AI tool.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。

2020年胶州市实验中学高三英语三模试题及参考答案

2020年胶州市实验中学高三英语三模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AMy Biggest ChallengeAs a writer on an adventure sports magazine, I’dalways fought shy of doing the adventurous stuff myself, preferring instead to observe the experts from a safe distance and relay their experiences to readers in the form of written language. Thus, when I was challenged to take part in a mountain climb in aid of raising money for charity-and to write about it afterwards-I was unwilling, to say the least.I was lucky enough to have a brilliant climbing coach called Keith, who put me through my paces after my daily work. He gave me knowledge about everything from the importance of building muscle groups to how to avoid tiredness through nutrition. It quickly became apparent that the mechanics of climbing were more complex than I had imagined. There was the equipment and techniques I’d never even heard of, all of which would come in handy on the snow-capped peak I’d be climbing.Aware of the challenge, Keith made a detailed action plan and I forced myself to stick to it, doing a daily workout at the gym and going on hikes with a heavy pack. I perfected my technique on the climbing wall and even went to climb the mountains to get vital experience. My self-belief increased alongside my muscle power and I became confident about finishing the climb.All too soon I was on a plane to my destination. On that day, when I looked up at the mountain, I thought of abandoning it. But then I remembered all the hard work I’d done and how disappointed Keith would be if I gave up at the last minute-not to mention letting down the charity and the sense of failure I’d experience myself. With a deep breath I gathered my equipment and headed out into the sunshine to meet the rest of the group.And as I sit here now, tapping away on my laptop, I’m amazed at the details in which I can recall every second of the climb: the burning muscles, the tiredness, the minor problems along the way. Could I have been better prepared? Possibly. Would I be back for another go? Thankfully not. The feeling of being excited when I stood on top of the world is a never-to-be-repeated experience but one I will enjoy forever nevertheless.1. At the beginning of the activity, the author revealed his ______.A. disappointment in the coming adventure.B. expectation of writing about his experience.C. lack of enthusiasm for the challenge he’d been offered.D. curiosity about taking part in the mountain climb for charity.2. What did the author realise during his climb training?A. The knowledge about climbing was really confusing.B. The equipment was the key factor to reach the peak.C. Climbing was much more complicated than expected.D. Hard training was far more important than making plans.3. How did the author feel after he succeeded in climbing the mountain?A. He was relieved that he wouldn’t have to do it again.B. He was well satisfied that he had done his best for it.C. He was surprised that he had managed to complete it.D.He was regretful that it wasn’t as smooth as imagined.BJeff Bezos, Elon Musk and Richard Branson have a combined net worth of 400 billion, roughly the size of the GDP of the entire nation of Ireland. And all three men have decided to put vast sums of their wealth into chasing their space travel dreams, creating a modern space race in which ultra — rich men — rather than countries — shoot for the stars.But why the three billionaires choose the crazy plan? Just for the travel dreams? It’s not that simple.As we all know, the space travel is a mirror of comprehensive national strength, whether it’s the cold war or the present. The first space racespannedmultiple presidents and premiers — Kennedy, Krushchev, Brezhnev, Nixon. It made heroes of astronauts and cosmonauts, and it focused national prides. But obviously, this year’s race between the billionaires features none of that national pride or opposing ideas. It’s tax — averse tycoons (大亨) who want to sell high — priced tickets to rich people interested in experiencing weightlessness. Amazon’s Bezos has said he is funding his portion by selling off large chunks of his Amazon stock (股票) — 1 billion or more a year.What are the odds? If anyone is taking bets on how this will end, and who will have the more profitable space tourism business, consider Amazon’s method of making very little profit in order to eat up competition. So, from this point of view, what’s hiding behind this crazy race is business. As a method of expand influence, it is not a bad idea.Richard Branson has carried out his plan on July 12, and Jeff Bezos announced that he will start his space travel on July 20. Bezos is getting some good press because he’s taking Wally Funk along for the ride. She’s thepilot now in her 80s who was kept out of space in the 1960s because she’s a woman. This may be a bonus for him. As for Musk, he thinks these two above are not real space trips, he wants a larger move.Who will win the race in the end? Let’s wait and see.4. Which of the following people might be the potential client of the space travel?A. Daisy aged 45 with a heavy debt.B. Clarkson who doesn’t enjoy taking risks.C. Billy aged 60 with an ample retirement pension.D. Alexander who knows nothing about space travel.5. What stopped Wally Funk flying to space in the 1960s?A. Age.B. Gender.C. Height.D. Disposition.6. What does the author think of the billionaires race?A. Profit — driven.B. Meaningless.C. Foolish.D. Generous.7. What does the underlined word “spanned” in paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Revolved.B. Turned down.C. Entered.D. Leapt through.CMost kids can walk into a library or bookstore and find hundreds of books to read. But it’s not that simple for kids who are blind. They read in a different way. Jenny Lee and other braille (盲文) transcribers take the printed words of a book and change them into a code of raised dots. Blind people can read these dots with their fingers. To know what braille feels like, take a ballpoint pen and press hard onto a piece of paper. Now turn the paper over and touch the raised dot made by the pen point.When Lee first saw the dots of the braille alphabet, she wondered if she’d ever be able to read and write them easily. She took a class and practised hard for about six months before she passed the final exam: she had to convert 35 pages of a book into braille. Today, Lee works for a publisher. One of her jobs is to change children’s books into braille.To do this, Lee first types the story into a computer and then uses a computer program to translate it into the braille code. Next, she looks over the translation several times to make sure it’s mistake-free. After that, a copy of the braille story is printed with a special printer. Then Lee and a proofreader work together to find and correct any mistakes. When a book is ready, many copies of it are printed. Afterwards, some are sold through websites and others are sent to libraries.Sometimes, going over a story again and again gets tiring. That’s when Lee takes a break. Several of JennyLee’s co-workers, who are blind, use guide dogs. When the animals aren’t working, Lee likes spending a few minutes with them. To her, playing with dogs “is always apick-me-upin the middle of the day”.“I love this mission,” Lee says. “Through my brain power and my fingers, I am putting the dots into some kid’s hands.”8. How does the writer explain what braille feels like?A. By explaining what braille words look like.B. By describing how blind people read books.C. By asking readers to experience it themselves.D. By giving examples of different braille words.9. What was Lee’s first reaction to braille?A. She was excited to get a new skill.B. She was amazed at the clever idea.C. She realized she could teach it herself.D. She believed it would be difficult to learn.10. What does the underlined word “pick-me-up” in paragraph 4 most probably mean?A A discussion to release work stress.B. Something to improve one’s appetite.C. Something to help restore one’s spirit.D. A free ride accompanied with a guide dog.11. What does Lee think of her job?A. Profitable and hopeful.B. Tiring but meaningful.C. Relaxing and helpful.D. Boring but challenging.DAs a 51-year-old first-aid responder since 1984, Jeffrey never knows what type of situation he might walk into, or who he'll meet along the wayTen years into the job, Jeffrey received a call that reported that a man in his early 30s had fallen down in the Mall of America. When Jeffrey and his partner arrived at the scene, they found the young male face down on the ground. He had gone unconscious, making weak attempts to breathe. His wife stood beside him holding their small son in horror. They quickly rushed to calm the man to keep him under control and offer necessary first aid. After Jeffrey dropped the patient off at the neighboring hospital, he thought about the man and his family for along time.Jeffrey thought he had experienced everything under the sun until one random visit to Office Max three years ago, where he met a man repeatedly walking back and forth while staring at him. As it turned out, the man was the patient he had saved 20 years earlier."You gave me 20 years more than I ever thought I'd have," the man said. He thanked Jeffrey repeatedly and told him he had someone he wanted him to meet. He stepped around the corner and reappeared with a 20-something-year-old man. Jeffrey instantly knew that it was the son he had seen standing by his mother all those years ago"That day changed my life," Jeffrey said. "Before that, everything was about work…When I talk to my beginner-training class, I tell them you never know the effect you can have on someone's life."12. What did Jeffrey do with the young man?A. He cured the man at the scene.B. He took care of the man's wife and son.C. He only sent the man to hospital.D. He did what was needed13.

山东省胶州一中高三3月份月考英语试题

2020届山东省胶州一中高三3月份月考英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读选择If you’re looking to buy a gift for your children, why not keep up with the trend and get the best hoverboard?What is a Hoverboard?A hoverboard is a two-wheeled personal transportation device. It’s electrical, portable and became highly popular in 2015 in reference to a popular 1980’s movie. Typically, thisself-balancing device operates like a powered skateboard.How Does a Hoverboard Work?The device may have many designs, but the mechanism itself isn’t complicated. Basically, a standard hoverboard contains:•Battery: stores the electrical power. Almost all hoverboards use a high-watt lithium-ion battery.•Gyroscope (one for each wheel): allows riders to tilt (倾斜) the hoverboard while maintaining balance and adjusting their direction.•Motor (one in each wheel): provides the power to the wheels to keep the rider balanced and upright.•Logic board: functions as the hoverboard brain. It processes data — your speed, tilt, etc. — and sends information to the motors. This unit controls the power of the board so riders can adjust their speed.All the above components work together to control the power and tilt of the hoverboards so the rider is balanced, upright and moving at a controlled speed.Why Buy a Hoverboard?Undoubtedly, hoverboards are cool. You’ve probably seen kids riding one around the house. They’re a phenomenon and everybody wants in. So, why deny your kids and prevent them from being part of this trend?Where is a hoverboard legal?Despite their wild popularity, hoverboards have yet to become “street-legal”. Currently, some places prohibit anyone under 16 from using these devices, and hoverboards are banned in academic institutions and public places, like campus buildings, parks, shopping malls and subway stations. Some places have also put speed limits on the devices and restricted their use to bike paths. However, open areas — including your yard — are free of these restrictions. 1.The logic board of a hoverboard can ______.A.store electricityB.power the wheelsC.send information to the ridersD.receive data and give command2.According to the passage, a hoverboard can be used ______.A.on campus B.in parksC.on bike paths D.in shopping malls3.What is the main purpose of this passage?A.To evaluate a gift’s quality.B.To recommend a gift choice.C.To compare new hoverboard models.D.To clarify functions of the latest hoverboards.Growing up, Deka Ismail says she let labels define what she could be. “I was a black girl, from a refugee (难民) family,” Deka said. “It was as if I was only allowed to explore in this predetermined box.”After a high school chemistry class inspired her to think about a career in science and gave her confidence in the field, Deka learned to live outside labels and began making big plans for her future. Now she is about to begin her freshman year at the University of California, planning to become a professor.Born and raised in San Diego’s City Heights neighbourhood, Deka is the daughter of a Somali refugee couple. While some might say Deka’s success happened in spite of her background, she would say differently, that her experiences shaped her and inspired her to be the driven, young scientist that she is today.When Deka was eight years old, her mother got a job by studying hard back in school in order to support the whole family. That made Deka realize that education could make adifference to one’s life. She spent a lot of time in the library reading books, and didn’t do many of the things her peers did, like partying or having romantic relationships.“I always felt like I had to be the perfect girl for my family,” Deka said. “You have to not even do your best but two times better than everyone else. I felt like the whole world was waiting for me to mess up.”Deka’s efforts paid off. The summer before her senior year of high school, she was accepted to the American Chemical Society Project SEED Programme. “She brought both enthusiasm and focus,” Botham, a researcher at this research institute, recalled. “She arrived every day ready to work, ready to learn and ready to tackle new challenges regardless of whether or not she had done anything similar.”When asked what advice she would give to others like her, Deka warned them not to underestimate themselves. “Don’t tell yourself that scholarship is too big or this programme is too competitive or I’ll never get into this school, ” she said. “I was not sure whether I could make it until I started seeing the acceptance lette rs rolling in.”4.From the passage, we can learn that ______.A.Deka was adopted by a refugee familyB.Deka spent a lot of time going to partiesC.Deka became a professor after graduationD.Deka’s experiences drove her to work hard5.Deka realized the importance of education ______.A.from her mother’s experience B.after her chemistry classC.by reading books in the library D.through working at the institute 6.According to the last paragraph, Deka advised that students be ______.A.patient B.confidentC.ambitious D.generous7.What does the story intend to tell us?A.Life is not all roses.B.Practice makes perfect.C.Well begun is half done.D.Hard work leads to success.A group of blue-faced birds step through the grass shoulder to shoulder, red eyeslooking around. They look like middle schoolers seeking a cafeteria table at lunchtime. Perhaps they’re not so different.A new study, led by Damien Farine, an ornithologist who studies collective behaviour, shows that the vulturine guineafowl of eastern Africa, like humans, have multilevel societies. In the past, scientists assumed such social structures required a lot of brainpower. But the pea-brained guineafowl are revealing the faults in that assumption.These large birds wander across the landscape in packs, often walking so closely that their bodies touch. They may fight each other to maintain their strict hierarchies (等级制度), but at other times they engage in friendly behaviours like sharing food.Suspecting the guineafowl might have a social structure, Dr. Farine and his colleagues began a thorough study of their society. For a whole year, they made daily observations of 441 birds. Coloured leg bands in unique combinations let researchers tell the black-and-blue birds apart. They also attached GPS devices to the backs of 58 birds, which let them see exactly where every group went, 24 hours a day.The findings of the research suggest that the vulturine guineafowl have a multilevel society. There are groups within groups within the population as a whole. There even seem to be groups of friends within the small groups. This is the first time anyone has observed such a society in a bird.And Dr. Farine emphasizes this particular bird’s tiny brain size: “They don’t only have small brains relative to mammals (哺乳动物), they also have quite small brains relative to other birds,” he said.According to him, living in this kind of society might actually make it easier to keep track of the social order. For example, if groups are stable and a bird can identify just one or two individuals within a group, it knows which group it’s looking at — no need for a brain that can recognize every single animal. Multilevel societies also let animals adjust their group sizes based on whatever challenges they’re facing. Depending on what enemies or resources are around, it might make sense to travel in a combined group rather than a smaller one.“Having a multilevel structure may not require having a large brain,” Dr. Farine said.There may be more birds and other animals out there that, although small-brained, have societies as many-leveled as our own.8.According to the passage, what inspired Dr. Farine to carry out the study?A.The guineafowl’s social behaviour.B.Previous assumptions about birds.C.His interest in animal brainpower.D.The faults in earlier research.9.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A.The research subjects. B.The research methods.C.The research findings. D.The research equipment.10.What can be learned from the passage?A.Complex social systems can be a disadvantage to the guineafowl.B.The guineafowl are good at recognizing individuals in a group.C.Birds maintain social order by travelling in combined groups.D.Small-brained animals can form multilevel societies.11.What is the main purpose of the passage?A.To present the findings of a study of the guineafowl.B.To explain the interaction patterns in multilevel societies.C.To introduce a new approach to observing the guineafowl.D.To uncover clues about how complex societies are formed.For several decades, there has been an extensive and organized campaign intended to generate distrust in science, funded by those whose interests and ideologies are threatened by the findings of modern science. In response, scientists have tended to stress the success of science. After all, scientists have been right about most things.Stressing successes isn’t wrong, but for many people it’s not persuasive. An alternative answer to the question “Why trust science?” is that scientists use the so-called scientific method. If you’ve got a high school science textbook lying around, you’ll probably find that answer in it. But what is typically thought to be the scientific method — develop a hypothesis (假设), then design an experiment to test it —isn’t what scientist s actually do. Science is dynamic: new methods get invented; old ones get abandoned; and sometimes, scientists can be found doing many different things.If there is no identifiable scientific method, then what is the reason for trust in science? The answer is how those claims are evaluated. The common element in modern science, regardless of the specific field or the particular methods being used, is the strict scrutiny (审查) of claims. It’s this tough, sustained process that works to make sure faulty claims are rejected. A scientific claim is never accepted as true until it has gone through a lengthy “peer review” because the reviewers are experts in the same field who have both the right and the obligation (责任) to find faults.A key aspect of scientific judgment is that it is done collectively. No claim gets accepted until it has been vetted by dozens, if not hundreds, of heads. In areas that have been contested, like climate science and vaccine safety, it’s thousands. This is why we are generally justified in not worrying too much if a single scientist, even a very famous one, disagrees with the claim. And this is why diversity in science — the more people looking at a claim from different angles — is important.Does this process ever go wrong? Of course. Scientists are humans. There is always the possibility of revising a claim on the basis of new evidence. Some people argue that we should not trust science because scientists are “always changing their minds.” While examples of truly settled science being overturned are far fewer than is sometimes claimed, they do exist. But the beauty of this scientific process is that it explains what might otherwise appear paradoxical (矛盾的): that science produces both novelty and stability. Scientists do change their minds in the face of new evidence, but this is a strength of science, not a weakness.12.How does the author think of the scientific method?A.Stable. B.Persuasive.C.Unreliable. D.Unrealistic.13.What does the underlined word “vetted” in Paragraph 4 probably m ean? A.Explained. B.Examined.C.Repeated. D.Released.14.According to the passage, the author may agree that ______.A.it is not persuasive to reject those faulty claimsB.settled science tends to be collectively overturnedC.a leading expert cannot play a decisive role in a scrutinyD.diversity in knowledge is the common element in science15.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A.Put Your Faith in Science B.Defend the Truth in ScienceC.Apply Your Mind to Science D.Explore A Dynamic Way to Science二、七选五An interview is a discussion with someone in which you try to get information from them. 16.There are three basic sub-types of interview: structured interviews, unstructured interviews and semi-structured interviews. 17.Incidentally, “respondent” and “informant” are words that are sometimes used instead of “interviewee”.A great deal is provided by this personal contact: you are another human being, and interviewees will respond to you, in bodily presence, in an entirely different way from the way that they would have reacted to questionnaires that came through their letterboxes or to emails. 18.Most people want to help and give their opinions, and they will usually be energized to help by your physical presence.If you take the trouble to schedule a visit, you can be more or less guaranteed of a response. Most importantly, though, you will be able to relate to interviewees while you are talking to them. 19.You will be able to watch their behaviour which will give you important clues about how they feel about a topic. Because of the primacy of the personal contact, your appearance and tone are important—how do you want to be seen? As “one of us”? As a person in authority? As an observer? …Or what? 20.However you decide to present yourself, it is good practice of course to try to put the interviewee at ease before the interview begins — to talk about the weather, about your journey, about anything that will break the ice.A.This is a ready-made support for you.B.Its nature varies with the nature of the interviews.C.You will be able to hear and understand what they are saying.D.Your decision should influence the way that you look, sound and behave.E.The information may be facts or opinions or attitudes or any combination of these.F.Each involves the interviewer in fact-to-face contact or telephone contact with another person.G.You will be using these clues to make informed guesses about what the interviewees might really mean.三、完形填空Afel was only a very small boy when he first saw snow in a picture book.

But Andersen, a 46-year-old father of four, wasn′t expecting any trouble on the road last New Year′s Eve, when he set off for a ski trip to the Bear River Mountains with nine-year-old daughter Mia, four-old son Baylor, and nine-year-old neighbor Kenya. Andersen had driven through the Canyon hundreds of times over the years.The weather was fine-but the higher they drove, the more slippery the roads became. Rounding a sharp U-turn at mile marker473, Andersen saw a truck that had skated off the road and immediately tapped his brakes. In an instant, the car was sliding at 25 miles per hour toward the shoulder of the highway, then rolling down a steep ten-foot dam toward the extremely cold Logan River. As it hit the water, the car tipped toward the passenger side, hesitated, and then rolled onto its roof and sank into the river.There was no time to tell the kids what to do. The crash had broken a few windows, and within seconds, the upside-down car was filled with water. “It was frightening how fast we were completely underwater,〞remembers Andersen, a soft-spoken product development manager.“You′re thinking, is this how it′s all going to end?〞Having lost all sense of direction, Andersen began to search the freezing water for the kids. Mia had been right next to him in the front seat; now, in the blackness, he couldn′t find her.“I thought, if I don′t get out, maybe none of us are going to get out.〞 Andersen got out of his seat belt, swam through a broken window, and, deeply and quickly, breathed air at the surface. That′s when he saw a group of men, about ten in all, appear at the top of the dam. One after another, they raced down into the water.

Mystery of the Bear River MountainsBMore than 700 business leaders, government officials and investors gathered in Mountain View, California in December, to attend the Social Innovation〔创新〕Summit. It is an invitation-only conference aimed at finding new ways to deal with old problems.Traffic jam is a problem that Bruggemann hopes to solve.“Traffic is really bad in most countries and we thought there must be some way of doing something about it.〞Last week, his team, winning the prize for its“nunav〞traffic management system, received a Microsoft Imagine Cup Grant of $100,000.“Everyone that′s using our system sends his present position as well as the destination to our servers every 30 seconds. And with that information our central system can reroute〔调整路线〕all of the cars in a way that everyone gets his individual best possible route.〞Bruggemann says early research with the system has been promising.“We found out that it could be possible to save up to 20 percent of the fuel consumption. Even more interesting, it can save up to 50 percent of the time you spend in traffic so you could get to your destination twice as fast.〞Team Cypher256 from Uganda also was invited to the Social Innovation Summit. They developed a device〔仪器〕,called WinSenga, aimed at improving health care for pregnant women in Africa. It measures the early baby′s heart sounds to help test the heart rate, age and position of the baby in the mother. The device is similar in operation to an ultrasound〔超声波〕test, but is far less costly and very practical in Africa.This is the third year for the Social Innovation Summit.

To tell us the importance of social innovations.D. To introduce a conference about social innovations.CApart from psychological illness, we are all largely responsible for our own emotional health. What we say to ourselves over and over for days, weeks, months, and sometimes years, has a great effect on how we see ourselves. This also contributes to many mental health disorders.Many of us have problems with negative〔消极的〕thoughts playing on the channel of our minds, bust if you′re buried in it and believe it, it could be wearing your sense of self-esteem〔自尊〕.Here are a few beliefs that indicate you may need to switch the channel: I′m not good enough?/I don′t deserve…?/No one likes me?/I′m a failure.Negative thoughts remind you of your bad feelings and they bring your focus on your failures, and that gets you nowhere.What can you do?Here are some suggestions:Switch the channel when negative thoughts appear. Self-talk〔自我暗示〕is not so obvious that we often don′t notice its effect on our mood and belief systems. Key things to notice are“if only〞or“what if〞statements:the former keeps you stuck in the past with regret, while the latter keeps you fearful of the future. There is nothing you can do about the past, and the future isn′t here yet,so stay in the present moment.Recognize that actions always follow beliefs.You′ll find yourself behaving in ways that are consistent to your beliefs.So,start believing the best about yourself:act as if you believe that you′re a valuable and worthy person.Develop positive self-talk rather than negative self-talk.Instead of always looking down upon yourself in your head,think of some things you actually like about yourself.What a re your strengths? What are you good at? Instead of saying “I′ m a loser〞,try saying,“I am capable./I′m good at…/I accept myself the way I am.〞Thinking poorly about ourselves gets us nowhere and is extremely self-limiting. Decide today to turn off the negative self-talk channel in your mind and develop your true potential.66.From the first two paragraphs we learn that____________________.A.lots of people have no sense of self-esteemB.focusing on negative thoughts can lead to failureC.negative thoughts will strengthen our sense of self-esteemD.few people have negative thoughts and mental problems67.The underlined word“wearing〞in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to_________________.A.strengthening B.protecting C.weakening D.replacing68.What do the suggestions in the text tell us?A.Our beliefs always come after actions.B.Positive self-talk does good to our mental health.C.Looking down upon ourselves is a sign of modesty.D.“What if〞keeps you stuck in the past with regret.69.The text encourages us to___________________.A.get rid of negative thoughts B.get anywhere we likeC.think highly of others D.turn off self-talk TV channel70.This text is most likely to appear in____________________.A.a recreation guide B.a medical journalC.a science textbook D.a travel brochureDI′m not so sure I like my friends any more.I used to like them—to be honest.We′d have lunch, talk on the phone or exchange e—mails,and they all seemed normal enough.

AIf you’re looking to buy a gift for your children, why not keep up with the trend and get the best hoverboard?What is a Hoverboard?A hoverboard is a two-wheeled personal transportation device. It’s electrical, portable and became highly popular in 2015 in reference to a popular 1980’s movie. Typically, this self-balancing device operates like a powered skateboard.How Does a Hoverboard Work?The device may have many designs, but the mechanism itself isn’t complicated. Basically, a standard hoverboard contains:•Battery: stores the electrical power. Almost all hoverboards use a high-watt lithium-ion battery.•Gyroscope (one for each wheel): allows riders to tilt (倾斜) the hoverboard while maintaining balance and adjusting their direction.•Motor (one in each wheel): provides the power to the wheels to keep the rider balanced and upright.•Logic board: functions as the hoverboard brain. It processes data — your speed tilt, etc. — and sends information to the motors. This unit controls the power of the board so riders can adjust their speed.All the above components work together to control the power and tilt of the hoverboards so the rider is balanced, upright and moving at a controlled speed.Why Buy a Hoverboard?Undoubtedly, hoverboards are cool. You’ve probably seen kids riding one around the house. They’re a phenomenon and everybody wants in. So, why deny your kids and prevent them from being part of this trend?Where is a hoverboard legal?Despite their wild popularity, hoverboards have yet to become “street-legal”. Currently, some places prohibit anyone under 16 from using these devices, and hoverboards are banned in academic institutions and public places, like campus buildings, parks, shopping malls and subway stations. Some places have also put speed limits on the devices and restricted their use to bike paths. However, open areas — including your yard — are free of these restrictions.1. The logic board of a hoverboard can ______.A. store electricityB. power the wheelsC. send information to the ridersD. receive data and give command2. According to the passage, a hoverboard can be used ______.A. on campusB. in parksC. on bike pathsD. in shopping malls3. What is the main purpose of this passage?A. To evaluate a gift’s quality.B. To recommend a gift choice.C. To compare new hoverboard models.D. To clarify functions of the latest hoverboards.【答案】1. D 2. C 3. B【解析】【分析】这是一则推荐类的广告。

BGrowing up, Deka Ismail says she let labels define what she could be. “I was a black girl, from a refugee (难民) family,” Deka said. “It was as if I was only a llowed to explore in this predetermined box.”After a high school chemistry class inspired her to think about a career in science and gave her confidence in the field, Deka learned to live outside labels and began making big plans for her future. Now she is about to begin her freshman year at the University of California, planning to become a professor.Born and raised in San Diego’s City Heights neighbourhood, Deka is the daughter of a Somali refugee couple. While some might say Deka’s success happened in spite of her background, she would say differently, that her experiences shaped her and inspired her to be the driven, young scientist that she is today.When Deka was eight years old, her mother got a job by studying hard back in school in order tosuppor t the whole family. That made Deka realize that education could make a difference to one’s life. She spent a lot of time in the library reading books, and didn’t do many of the things her peers did, like partying or having romantic relationships.“I always felt like I had to be the perfect girl for my family,” Deka said. “You have to not even do your best but two times better than everyone else. I felt like the whole world was waiting for me to mess up.”Deka’s efforts paid off. The summer before her senior year of high school, she was accepted to the American Chemical Society Project SEED Programme. “She brought both enthusiasm and focus,” Botham, a researcher at this research institute, recalled. “She arrived every day ready to work, ready to learn and rea dy to tackle new challenges regardless of whether or not she had done anything similar.”When asked what advice she would give to others like her, Deka warned them not to underestimate themselves. “Don’t tell yourself that scholarship is too big or this pr ogramme is too competitive or I’ll never get into this school, ” she said. “I was not sure whether I could make it until I started seeing the acceptance letters rolling in.”4. From the passage, we can learn that ______.A. Deka was adopted by a refugee familyB. Deka spent a lot of time going to partiesC. Deka became a professor after graduationD. Deka’s experiences drove her to work hard5. Deka realized the importance of education ______.A. from her mother’s experienceB. after her chemistry classC. by reading books in the libraryD. through working at the institute6.

Practice makes perfect.C. Well begun is half done.D. Hard work leads to success.【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. D【解析】这是一篇记叙文。
