AFive of the most beautiful villagesSidi Bou Said in TunisiaThis village seems to disappear into the sky. All the houses are painted white and the skies are clear. It's not surprising that the life here is very relaxing, and it is also home to plenty of cafes and art galleries.Wengen in SwitzerlandDo you ever wonder how the world was before cars were invented? The village called Wengen might just help you realize your dreams. Cars have been banned from this area for close to 100 years, and everything looks like it was taken right out of Heidi. The locals have kept their Swiss culture undamaged.Shirakawa-go in JapanThis village is certainly known for its unusual houses with triangular roofs which seem to resemble hands joined in prayer. It's designed to keep snow from piling up on top of houses. These houses are the symbol of the area but there aren't many of them left anymore.Eze in FranceFrance in itself is pretty, but its most attractive village is Eze. This community seems to be frozen in time. This village is the perfect melting pot of cultures because of its closeness to Nice. During the Middle Ages, it was desired by invaders(侵略者),and while this was a cause of sadness for the local people in thepast, today the village enjoys its rich heritage(遗产).The architecture here is so diverse.Bibury in EnglandLocated on the River Coln in the West of England, Bibury was described as "the most beautiful village in England”.Honey-colored 17th-century stone cottages, the Church of St.Mary and a still-working 1902 farm are some of the ancient village’s must-sees. The most photographed spot is Arlington Row, which is a collection of 14th-century stone buildings.21.Where can visitors enjoy paintings?A.In Sidi Bou Said.B.In Shirakawa-go.C.In Wengen.D.In Eze.22. What's the similarity between Wengen and Bibury?A. They both sit by a long river.B. They both have an ancient view.C. They are home to many inventions.D. They are located in the same country.23. What do we know about Eze?A. Its people look sad.B. It forbids cars to enter.C. Its architecture is modern.D. It was attacked in the past.BIt is curious that Stephen Koziatek feels almost as though he has to explain about his efforts to give his students a better future.Mr Koziatek is part of something pioneering. He is a teacher at a New Hampshire high school where learning is not about books and tests and rote memorization(死记硬背),but something practical. As Koziatek knows, there is learning in just about everything. Nothing is necessarily gained by forcing students to learn geometry at a desk. They can also learn geometry by putting together a bicycle.But he's also found a kind of prejudice. Working with your hands is seen as almost a mark of inferiority(低等).Schools in the family of vocational(职业的) education “have that opinion...that it's for kids who can't make it academically,”he says.On one hand, that viewpoint is a logical product of America's evolution. Manufacturing(制造业)is not the economic engine that it once was. The job security that the US economy once offered to high school graduates has largely disappeared. More education is the new way. We want more for our kids, and rightfully so.But the headlong push into bachelor's degrees for all—and the devaluing of anything less—misses an important point: That's not the only thing the American economy needs. Yes, a bachelor’s degree opens more doors.But even now, 54 percent of the jobs in the country are middle-skill jobs, such as construction and high-skill manufacturing, according to the National Skills Coalition. But only 44 percent of workers are adequately trained. There is a gap in working-class jobs, but the workers who need those jobs most aren't equipped to do them. Koziatek's Manchester School of Technology (High School) is trying to fill that gap.Koziatek's school is a wake-up call. When education becomes one-size-fits-all, it risks overlooking a nation's diversity of gifts.24. What's the characteristic of Mr. Koziatek’s school?A. Paying attention to practical learning.B. Letting students do many tests.C. Encouraging students to read books.D. Forcing students to learn by rote.25. What does the underlined phrase "that viewpoint” in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. Vocational education is for academically challenged students.B. Vocational education is undoubtedly a good choice.C. Not all students can be admitted to college.D. Not all students can do physical work.26. How are people reacting to the disappearance of manufacturing?A. They lower their expectations.B. They try to improve their skills.C. They turn to the government.D. They continue their education.27. What does the author think of the school's goal?A. It needs lots of effort.B. It is worth achieving.C. It is unpractical.D. It is adventurous.CWhen I was eleven, my parents gave me the first book I ever owned—“The Tales of Edgar Allan Poe”.I distinctly remember opening it, reading the first lines of "The Cask of Amontillado,”and remarking to myself, "So this is what reading is!”My delight was unbounded. Little did I know at the time that I was at the beginning of a lifelong journey.So, if I read my first real book at the advanced age of 11, what was I reading before then? In a word, readers: relatively plotless, repetitive if well-intentioned attempts to teach children to recognize letters and their sounds and to build their vocabularies. Being a dutiful boy, I went through the motions and I learned what words were. But I had no idea what writing was. Until Poe. In Poe's stories, the sentences were more complex and stylish than anything I had ever read before.Poe, in short, was a start. My parents gave me that first book, but then I went off on my own. I liked science, which led me to discover Jules Verne and H.G. Wells. Other writers followed quickly one after another: Isaac Asimov, Ray Bradbury, Arthur C. Clarke. But I didn't limit myself to science fiction. Other titles that deeply impressed me early on, and which I have carried on my life's journey, include: “The Yearling," “Shane”“Ivanhoe,"“Of Mice and Men," "To Kill a Mocking bird," and “The Good Earth”.It went on from there. I became that kid who, long after his parents told him to turn the lights off, hid under the covers with a flashlight and a book, his greatest fear of being discovered and having his flashlight taken away. I realize that myparents must have known I was defying (违背) them. But in their wisdom they pretended to be ignorant of it. And so I owe my start as a reader to my parents.28. What does the first paragraph mainly talk about?A. The author's good memories.B. The author's childhood before 11.C. The author's parents' reading habits.D. The author's affection for his first book.29. What was the influence of plotless reading on the author?A.He didn't accumulate enough vocabularies.B. He didn't know what real writing was.C. He couldn't read complex sentences.D. He couldn't write a good article.30. What is the attitude of the author's parents to his reading under the covers?A.Indifferent.B. Tolerant.C. Anxious.D. Objective.31. What is the best title for the text?A. How I wrote a good bookB. How I found my favorite booksC. How I learned from my parentsD. How I became a reader of booksDAt one recently-opened restaurant in Japan, diners are warned that they very well might not get what they ordered—but surprisingly, it seems few customers are complaining.That's because waiters at the restaurant, which is called“The Restaurant of Order Mistakes, all have dementia and Alzheimer's(痴呆和阿尔茨海默症). The founders of the unique dining spot hope that eating there will help change opinions about dementia and teach customers to be more patient with those who suffer from it.Yahoo! Japan first reported that the restaurant opened in Tokyo's Toyosu district on June 2 and closed after June 4, but will re-open around World Alzheimer's Day in September. The restaurant’s name is a twist on the title of a 1924 story by Kenji Miyazawa called The Restaurant of Many Orders.The restaurant idea was originally thought of by a few like-minded people, including the owners of Maggie's Tokyo. The founders hope to spread a message about inclusivity(包容), and teach people to be more understanding toward elders with dementia. The restaurant also serves to point out that dementia and Alzheimer's sufferers can still be functioning members of society. It's also a fun way to celebrate human mistakes.It doesn't all run smoothly, though. The restaurant readily warns that waiters may bring customers the wrong order. They also may forget to bring drinks or other items.Mizuho Kudo, a Japanese food editor, tweeted(发推特) about her stop at the restaurant. She ordered a hamburger steak but was given gyoza dumplings instead, but everything turned out to be unexpectedly delicious and she said she "laughed a lot”during the meal. She also noted that the waiter were full of smiles and seemed to be having a lot of fun, laughing and excitedly attending to their customers with delicious food. Her tweet about the experience has been liked over 160,000 times, and many commenters seemed impressed by the idea.32. In what way is the restaurant special?A. Its waiters all suffer from a brain disease.B. It only provides traditional foods.C. Its service is the best in Japan.D. It opens only in September.33. What’s one purpose of the restaurant?A. To show dementia sufferers can still contribute to society.B. To raise money for people suffering from mental illness.C. To educate the young to understand the elders.D. To show people a new type of restaurant.34. What did Mizuho Kudo do after having a meal in the restaurant?A. She brought her friends to the restaurant.B. She opened a similar restaurant.C. She volunteered to work in the restaurant.D. She shared her experience with others.35. How did Mizuho Kudo feel about her experience in the restaurant?A．Surprising. B. Unusual.C．Pleasant. D. Necessary.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。

Ask someone else what they think.20You can ask two or three or four more people if two isn't enough.21If you mislead or lie to people about your opinions,then it's not surprising that you have a hard time trusting that people's compliments are genuine.Be more honest with people around you,and you'll find it much easier to believe what people say about you.A．They will be the tie breaker.B．You can check with someone else instead.C．The causes are complicated but the path to accepting compliments is simpler.D．How honest are you with your friends and family when they ask for your opinion? E．When someone is trying to pay you a compliment,they are speaking subjectively. F．When someone pays you a compliment,they are speaking about something that is observable. G．Similarly,when I call you smart or funny,I'm commenting based on my definition of smart or funny,that's how I see you.Have you considered contributing your skills and expertise virtually towards achieving sustainable human development efforts?Through the Online Volunteering service of the United Nations Volunteers(UNV)programme,you can connect with UN agencies,governments,public institutions and civil society organizations—from any device,anywhere in the world.While extending your network,you can also get first-hand practical experience.Requirements:·To sign up on the Unified Volunteering Platform and apply for Online Volunteer assignments,you must be at least18years of age.·There is no particular background required to become an Online Volunteer.Each Online Volunteer assignment is different and has its own requirements,set by the host organization.·As an Online Volunteer,you can only support organizations remotely in assignments up to20 hours per week for a maximum of12weeks for each assignment.Criteria and service rules:·Online Volunteers are not under contract with the UNV programme or the engaging organization.·Online Volunteers do not receive any kind of financial benefits.·For each Online Volunteering assignment,a maximum of25Online Volunteers can be engaged.

E．Simply walking more or doing household chores positively impacts health,F．It can work to break up sitting time and add steps hourly throughout the day. G．Spending four to six waking hours sitting or lying down is considered sedentary.TikTok has many clever tips and tricks to make life a little easier.From creative advice to practical skills,there is something for everyone on the video sharing App.Many of these methods have left viewers open-mouthed at their simplicity or scratching their heads as why they hadn’t thought of them first.But to save you some boring scrolling(滚屏),we have made a list of the best TikTok life tips in2021.Ready to be impressed?Chop onionsChopping onions is an emotional experience or,at least,it looks it.The vegetable can make us tear up,and salty liquid flowing down your cheeks is never a stylish look.However,a woman created a makeshift protective gear out of a hooded sweatshirt(连帽运动衫)and a pan cover. Next step,New York Fashion Week.Clean car headlightsIt is vital that your cars headlights stay in good working order so as to keep you safe.If yours are fogged up,just use a lemon and some baking soda.Many netizens have claimed that this method can save them some serious cash.Bathe your dogIf your dog hates having a bath,why not try peanut butter?While this one may seem ridiculous,one TikTok video has shown it is effective.In the clip the pet can be seen licking it off the side of the tub,as the owner cleans his fur.“I don’t even know I am having a bath.All I know is peanut butter,”the caption(字幕)reads.30．What can we infer from the first TikTok life tip?A．Chopping onions can make you upset.B．You can find the protective gear in New York.C．The makeshift protective gear is creative.D．It’s stylish to have tears flowing down your cheeks.31．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A．The tips and tricks sound easy but are difficult to apply.B．You can use a lemon and some baking soda to bathe your dog.C．Cleaning car headlights with a lemon and some baking soda is economical.D．The author finds bathing a dog with the help of peanut butter ridiculous. 32．What’s the author’s purpose in writing this passage?A．To analyze the reasons why people like TikTok.B．To share some clever tips and tricks found on TikTok.C．To come up with some practical suggestions on TikTok.D．To call on people to share more tips and tricks on TikTok.What motivates you to work or study harder?Is it the thought of success and all the amazing things that you can achieve,or is it the fear of failure and worry about all the things that can go wrong for you?Leaders,managers,and teachers have often used one of these ideas to inspire people to work harder and achieve more.33A recent study looked at the effect of fear-based strategies on British secondary school students.They found that if a test is seen as important,and students are optimistic that they can succeed,then the fear of failure can be used successfully by teachers to motivate these learners. However,if students are not confident,fear-based approaches could cause feelings of anxiety. 34The study also found that if students don’t care about the test,then,unsurprisingly,the fear of failure is not likely to motivate them.35It’s a fact that most new companies will fail.But does this motivate or prevent business people?Again,it’s not straightforward.The personal consequences of failure can be significant,and so founders may be motivated to work harder to avoid them.A study carried out on British and Canadian businessmen found that fear of failure can improve problem solving,as people are motivated to anticipate and resolve potential issues.36So it will help their business in the long run.37It can drive confident people to do better,but it can also increase our doubtsand turn them into barriers.A．It may motivate them more.B．But is one better than the other?C．Fear-based motivation is complicated.D．Then it can in turn lead them to do worse.E．Businessmen often run the risk of failure.F．They may also be inspired to learn new things.G．Is this idea beneficial for you to succeed?四、语法填空38．Beijing Olympic Park,also(know)as the Olympic Green,is located in Chaoyang District,Beijing,with a total land area of11.59square kilometers.（所给词的适当形式填空）五、书信写作39．假设你是红星中学高三学生李华，你和你校交换生Jim准备联合参加学校组织的校园文创设计大赛(Campus Cultural and Creative Design Competition),请给Jim发邮件，内容包括：1.分享你的创意;2.询问Jim的建议。

(A)A Film For Children: Frozenare supposed to have. The first is wonderful music. The second is a bit of danger and darkness in the songs. The third is a conservative message wrapped up in a traditional happy ending.

I never saw my dad drinking or taking a night out. All he did after work was taking care of his family.I grew up and left home for college and since then, my dad had been calling me every Sunday morning. And when I bought a house several years later, my dad painted it by himself in the fierce summer heat. All he asked was to talk to him, but I was too busy in those days.Four years ago, my dad visited me. He spent many hours putting together a swing for my daughter. He asked me to have a talk with him, but I had to prepare for a trip that weekend.One Sunday morning we had a telephone talk as usual. I noticed that my dad had forgotten some things that we discussed lately. I was in a hurry, so our conversation was short. Several hours later that day I received a call. My father was in the hospital. Immediately I bought a plane ticket and on my way I was thinking about all the occasions I missed to have a talk with my dad. By the time I arrived at the hospital, my father had passed away. Now it was he who did not have time for a conversation with me. I realized how little I knew about my dad, his deepest thoughts and his dreams.After his death I learned much more about him and even more about myself. All he ever wanted was my time.

The path to knighthood began at the age of seven, when a vassal(封臣）sent his son to the lord’s house to become a page as part of his training. For seven years, a page was cared for by the women of the house, who taught him many important things. At the age of fourteen, the page became a squire, a personal attendant(随从）to a knight. From the knight he learned riding and all the skills of war, as well as hunting, hawking, and other sports. In theory, the squire could be knighted on the battlefield for exceptional bravery, but this event was much rarer than Hollywood would have made us believe.When he was judged ready(generally between the ages of 18 and 21), the squire was knighted. He had to promise seriously to the knightly code which asked him to “protect the weak, defenseless, and helpless, and fight for the general welfare of all”. This code was rarely lived up to, but it remained the standard for proper behaviour among the noble people for centuries.Battles were usually small affairs, fought between the knights of different lords. The object in a fight wasn’t necessarily to kill a competitor, but to catch him and ask his lord to pay for him.Introduced from France in the 12th century, tournaments were an important part of military and social life. These “war games” contained individual contests, and group fights. Lances and swords were not sharp, but tournaments were where fame was made, so the fighting was hard and dangerous. Prizes were given to the winners, and some knights, such as famous William Marshall, made money in the tournaments. By the 14th century, tournaments became exciting fairs complete with singing, dancing, and feasting which might last for several days.9.What was required to become a knight in England in the Middle Ages?A.Learning many important things in a school.B.Being born by the women of the house.C.Being sent to the lord’s house at 14.D.Being the son of a noble man.10.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 mean?A.A squire had to be exceptionally brave.B.A squire didn’t really go to a battlefield.C.A squire was rarely knighted on the battlefield.D.Hollywood makes people know well about a squire.11.What can we learn about the knightly code?A.It aimed to build a better society.B.Knights never behaved according to it.C.Knights were asked to fight for their own benefits.D.It was the standard for British people’s behavior for long.12.Why would knights fight fiercely in tournaments?A.Because it was a great way to please the lord.B.Because winning would bring great honor.C.Because lords paid a lot of money for it.D.Because they must fight for their lives.(D)Robots that can chat, find misplaced glasses, draw aeroplanes and play with your children are attracting thousands of visitors during an exposition in Tokyo as Japanadapts to changes in society. Robots, such as the sound-sensitive Chapit, answer simple questions and even joke with people to help them fight loneliness and stay alert at an old age.Japan has one of the world’s fastest-ageing societies and the government predicts that by 2050 the proportion of people over 65 will reach 40 percent. “Many older people in Japan live alone and have no one to talk to,” said Kazuya Kitamura, a representative of the exposition organizer. “Communication robots accompany people that don’t mind listening to the same stories over and over again.”“Personal Mobility Robot”, equipped with four cameras and a sensor to recognize the user’s center of gravity, is designed to help the elderly move around without pressing buttons, using joysticks(操纵杆）or rotating wheels as in traditional wheelchairs.The robot can also help find misplaced glasses by identifying them with a sensor.Other robots, such as the award-winning “DiGRO” can support busy parents who have little time to play with their children. The robot can use the Internet to find a simple image and then draw pictures, keeping children company while parents are working.While Chapit, a relatively simple robot, managed to attract a corporate partner, many researchers, such as Kiyoshi Matsumoto, a professor at the University of Tokyo, struggle to attract sponsors for more expensive projects.“We have developed a robot that can assist many people, but we still haven’t found a sponsor,” said Matsumoto, who added that the cost of the machine, if mass-produced, would be comparable to that of a car. “In the current economic environment there are few companies willing to invest in such a costly project.” he said.13.It can be inferred from the text that ______.A.many children lack love from parentsB.robots helpful to the old will be in great demandC.robots are the most useful to childrenD.robots do better than people in health care14.It is difficult to find sponsors for robots because ______.A.Japan is suffering economy depressionB.the robots are of poor designC.the production of robots costs a lotD.the future market is worrying15.What is the author’s attitude towards the robots referred to?A.UnsatisfiedB.DoubtfulC.FavorableD.Regretful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。

Dickens is probably my favorite novelist of all time, although my favorite book has to be Les Misérables by Victor Hugo.

Is it because they are lazy? Of course not. In fact, the difference in spelling was started by Noah Webster(1758 — 1843). He was a teacher who reformed (改革) English to make American identity (特征) stronger. Linguists (语言学家) celebrate his birthday on October 16 every year.After the Revolutionary War (1775 — 1783), Webster believed that Americans should have their own dictionary, rather than rely on British dictionaries. He dropped the British “u” in some words. And he changed “centre” into “center” for children to learn English by spelling words more like what they sounded. He used “subway” instead of British word “underground”. Some other examples are “soccer” and “football”, “fall” and “autumn”.Webster wasn’t shy about expressing his opinions. In defining (定义) preposterous(unreasonable), he wrote: “A republican government in the hands of female is preposterous.” Webster spent 28 years on the project before completing the 70,000-word dictionary with his American-style spelling in 1828. He also added local words.His dictionary was widely used in schools. Linguists believed it helped a new country achieve unity (统一) and cultural independence at a time when most people cared about political freedom.“He was the creator of our language and the creator of American identity,” said Joshua Kendall, who is working on a book about Webster. “He at last brought us together through our language.”4．Which is NOT true about Webster’s dictionary?A．It has local words in it.B．It is a 70,000-word dictionary.C．All the words are spelled without “u”.D．Its words are in American-style spelling.5．What does the underlined phrase “rely on” in Paragraph 2 mean?A．Depend on.B．Trust in.C．Put up with.D．Give up. 6．What do people think of Webster’s dictionary?A．It is the only dictionary that Americans still use today.B．It helped to bring Americans together besides its cultural influence.C．It has no influence on the development of American English.D．It helped to make American English more useful than British English.7．What’s the main idea of the passage?A．The development of the British English.B．American English is better than British English.C．Noah Webster added local words to the dictionary.D．Noah Webster wrote an American English dictionary and reformed English.COne August afternoon, Richard Allen dropped off his last passenger, Mrs. Carey. Lifting two grocery bags, he followed her across the yard and stood on the step of her house. Glancing up, he saw a large wasp (黄蜂) nest under the roof. Allen had heard that wasps can become more likely to sting (蜇) in summer. He mentioned this to Mrs. Carey, who had opened the door.“Oh, they don’t bother me,” she said lightly. “I go in and out all the time.”Anxiously, Allen looked at the nest again—— to see the wasps flying straight at him. “Hurry!” he shouted to Mrs. Carey. “Get in!”She stepped quickly inside. Allen ran for his mini-bus. Too late; they were upon him. Just as he jumped aboard, half a dozen red spots showed on his arm, and he felt more on his back and shoulders.As he was driving down the road, Allen felt as if something was burning at the back of his neck, and the “fire” was spreading forward toward his face. And immediate anxiety took hold of him.Allen knew that stings could cause some persons to die. But he had been stung the previous summer and the after-effects soon passed. However, what he didn’t know what that the first sting had turned his body into a time bomb waiting for the next to set off an explosion.Miles from the nearest medical assistance, Allen began to feel his tongue thick and heavy and his heartbeat louder. Most frightening, he felt his breathing more and more difficult. He reached for the radio mike (话筒), trying to call the mini-bus center, but his words were hardly understandable. Signals were also poor that far out. He knew a rescue team was on 24-hour duty at the Amherst Fire Department’s north station. So his best chance was to make a run for it.Rushing down the mountain, Allen tried not to panic, focusing his mind on each sharp turn. He was almost through the last of them when he felt sure he was going into shock (休克). Just then he reached for the radio mike again.“Call fire station,” he shouted, concentrating to form the words. “Emergency. Bee sting. Emergency. There in ten minutes.”“Five-ten,” the center replied.Hold on, Allen thought. Keep your eyes open. Breathe. Keep awake.At last he reached the station. Two firemen ran out. Allen felt their hands grasp him before he hit the ground. You made it, he thought.8．It is mentioned in the passage that wasps are more likely to attack when _______.A．there are huge noisesB．strangers are approachingC．the air is filled with food smellD．the hottest season comes around9．Allen didn’t know that if stung by wasps again, he would _______.A．have no after-effectsB．suffer from sharper painC．surely lose his lifeD．become more sensitive10．Allen failed at his first attempt to send his message to the mini-bus center because _______.A．he was unable to speak clearlyB．his radio equipment was poorC．he was in a state of shockD．no one was on duty11．Which would be the best title for the passage?A．Allen, A Helpless DriverB．Wasps, Bloody KillersC．A Race Against DeathD．War Against WaspsDArmy ants are mainly distributed in South America and Africa and mostly live in the Amazon River basin. They like to live in groups and generally one or two million in a group. They are migratory, have no fixed on the move. When encountering obstacles such as gaps, army ants are able to connect their bodies to each other and build a bridge for large groups of ants to pass through, saving crawling distance. The bridge can be built and removed very quickly, in seconds.Christopher Reid of the University of Sydney’s Insect Behaviour and Ecology Laboratory, said that when studying the ant bridge, he initially assumed that once the ant bridge was built the two end positions of the bridge would be fixed, and the bridge itself would be relatively stationary (不动的).However, after observation, it was found that the ant bridge would constantly change according to the army ants’ knowledge of the outside world. The ant bridge can move slowly from the original position, increasing the number of ants in the bridge, extending the length of the bridge, so that other ants may save a lot of efforts by using the ant bridge instead of taking other routes. In this way, it can continuously compress the distance to the target area.Meanwhile, the researchers have also found that the changing ant bridge does not always achieve the shortest distance. When the bridge is extended to a certain extent, the number of ants involved in the construction of the ant bridge will not continue to increase, and the length of the bridge will stop growing.Researchers believe that army ants use the best methods in the construction of bridges. Since the ants involved in building the bridge are unable to participate in other work, the colony stops putting in more ants as soon as it finds that the number of ants put into extending the bridge is out of balance with the number of ants needed for other jobs.12．What is mainly introduced about army ants in paragraph 1?A．Their migration.B．Their distribution.C．Their living habits.D．Their hunting targets.13．What did the research find about the bridge built by army ants ?A．It becomes longer constantly.B．It keeps unchanged once built.C．It achieves the shortest distance.D．It is adjusted according to the needs.14．What does the underlined word “compress” mean in paragraph 3?A．Reduce.B．Calculate.C．Neglect.D．Judge.15．What is the writing purpose of the text ?A．To stress the importance of cooperation.B．To explain army ants’ incredible strength.C．To show army ants’ collective intelligence.D．To indicate the harmony between nature and human.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)根据下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Some community activists held a(n) 7 meeting with parents and the principal. A group of the fathers 8 decided it was time to make their 9 known on campus.That’s how Dads on Duty was born with its goal — make sure the kids are safe. Around 40 men organized into six-person shifts, with two shifts on campus every day. They 10 the day after the meeting. These people 11 their own schedules and commitments without complaint. Some of them are fathers of kids at the school, while others are not but expect the youth in their community to know they have an entire village behind them.Now, anyone who wants to enter the school with 12 will have to avoid energetic papa bears, big smiles and many dad jokes. It’s hard to be a tough guy when somebody’s uncle has just 13 you into checking your shoelaces for countless times, only to find that they are not, in fact, untied.Since Dads on Duty arrived on campus, gang battles have dramatically declined. “The school has been happy, you can feel it,” said one student. Another told the Washington Post, “They 14 all the kids like we’re their own children.”The dads aren’t meant to 15 security guards. If they do see a fight may occur, they get security on the scene as soon as possible.

But you know that's easier said than done.There are many reasons why you have a hard time accepting compliments. 17 It's a three step process. First, believe what people tell you. If you're still having a hard time taking the compliment, double check. And if it's still hard to accept then you'll have to check yourself.18 For example, if you're six feet tall and I say, “Wow, you're tall! ” I'm being honest. I'm five foot nine, so plenty of people are tall compared to me. I'm expressing that subjectively, from my shorter vantage point, you are tall. I'm not saying everyone would agree with me. Just like if I say City of God is a great movie, I'm not saying you have to think it's a great movie.You have to listen carefully to compliments. It's not always obvious if you're being complimented for something only others can observe. If you are five foot six inches tall, and weigh seventy pounds, I would say you are slim. But if you are comparing yourself to someone who is shorter, and weighs five pounds less than you, you might call yourself plump. In this extreme example, the outside perspective is more accurate than the internal one.19If you're still struggling to accept a compliment, you don't just have to take someone at their word. It can be hard to accept an opinion when it's the opposite of yours, so call in reinforcements. Ask someone else what they think. 20 You can ask two or three or four more people if two isn't enough.21 If you mislead or lie to people about your opinions, then it's not surprising that you have a hard time trusting that people's compliments are genuine. Be more honest with people around you, and you'll find it much easier to believe what people say about you.A．They will be the tie breaker.B．You can check with someone else instead.C．The causes are complicated but the path to accepting compliments is simpler.D．How honest are you with your friends and family when they ask for your opinion? E．When someone is trying to pay you a compliment, they are speaking subjectively.F．When someone pays you a compliment, they are speaking about something that is observable. G．Similarly, when I call you smart or funny, I'm commenting based on my definition of smart or funny, that's how I see you.Have you considered contributing your skills and expertise virtually towards achieving sustainable human development efforts? Through the Online Volunteering service of the United Nations Volunteers (UNV) programme, you can connect with UN agencies, governments, public institutions and civil society organizations — from any device, anywhere in the world. While extending your network, you can also get first-hand practical experience.Requirements:·To sign up on the Unified Volunteering Platform and apply for Online Volunteer assignments, you must be at least 18 years of age.·There is no particular background required to become an Online Volunteer.

But there’s something you should know. Being physically inactive or sedentary (久坐不动的) can increase health risks.25 What counts as being physically inactive?While there is no strict definition of what can be considered a sedentary lifestyle, researchers have a few different measures to assess what a sedentary lifestyle is. One measure is the time an individual spends seated or reclining (向后倚靠) during waking hours. 26 Some other researchers label people inactive or sedentary if they take fewer than 5,000 pedometer (计步器) steps per day. 27In the short term, being inactive can increase depression or anxiety. It can also affect the way the body processes fats and sugars in the diet and lead to some weight gain if you aren’t burning enough calories. Over the long term, sedentary lifestyles increase the risk of death from cardiovascular (心血管的) disease, diabetes, and cancer. How can you prevent being inactive?Health authorities recommend exercise at a medium level for either 30 minutes a day for five days a week or a total of 2 hours and 30 minutes per week. Walking is an easy activity to add to your day. 28 A pedometer or fitness band can show you whether you are getting enough steps. Many people aim to take 10,000 steps per day, which indicates that you have met your daily physical activity goal. 29 but the value of being more physically active is worth it for itsmany benefits.A．How harmful is it?B．What’s the drawback of sedentary lifestyle?C．Fixing a sedentary lifestyle takes some conscious effort at first,D．Now let’s learn about whether you might be classified as inactive or sedentary.E．Simply walking more or doing household chores positively impacts health,F．It can work to break up sitting time and add steps hourly throughout the day.G．Spending four to six waking hours sitting or lying down is considered sedentary.TikTok has many clever tips and tricks to make life a little easier. From creative advice to practical skills, there is something for everyone on the video sharing App. Many of these methods have left viewers open-mouthed at their simplicity or scratching their heads as why they hadn’t thought of them first. But to save you some boring scrolling (滚屏), we have made a list of the best TikTok life tips in 2021. Ready to be impressed?Chop onionsChopping onions is an emotional experience or, at least, it looks it. The vegetable can make us tear up, and salty liquid flowing down your cheeks is never a stylish look. However, a woman created a makeshift protective gear out of a hooded sweatshirt (连帽运动衫) and a pan cover. Next step, New York Fashion Week.Clean car headlightsIt is vital that your cars headlights stay in good working order so as to keep you safe. If yours are fogged up, just use a lemon and some baking soda. Many netizens have claimed that this method can save them some serious cash.Bathe your dogIf your dog hates having a bath, why not try peanut butter? While this one may seem ridiculous, one TikTok video has shown it is effective. In the clip the pet can be seen licking it off the side of the tub, as the owner cleans his fur. “I don’t even know I am having a bath. All I know is peanut butter,” the caption (字幕) reads.30．What can we infer from the first TikTok life tip?A．Chopping onions can make you upset.B．You can find the protective gear in New York.C．The makeshift protective gear is creative.D．It’s stylish to have tears flowing down your cheeks.31．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A．The tips and tricks sound easy but are difficult to apply.B．You can use a lemon and some baking soda to bathe your dog.C．Cleaning car headlights with a lemon and some baking soda is economical.D．The author finds bathing a dog with the help of peanut butter ridiculous.32．What’s the author’s purpose in writing this passage?A．To analyze the reasons why people like TikTok.B．To share some clever tips and tricks found on TikTok.C．To come up with some practical suggestions on TikTok.D．To call on people to share more tips and tricks on TikTok.What motivates you to work or study harder? Is it the thought of success and all the amazing things that you can achieve, or is it the fear of failure and worry about all the things that can go wrong for you? Leaders, managers, and teachers have often used one of these ideas to inspire people to work harder and achieve more. 33A recent study looked at the effect of fear-based strategies on British secondary school students. They found that if a test is seen as important, and students are optimistic that they can succeed, then the fear of failure can be used successfully by teachers to motivate these learners. However, if students are not confident, fear-based approaches could cause feelings of anxiety.34 The study also found that if students don’t care about the test, then, unsurprisingly, the fear of failure is not likely to motivate them.35 It’s a fact that most new companies will fail. But does this motivate or prevent business people? Again, it’s not straightforward. The personal consequences of failure can be significant, and so founders may be motivated to work harder to avoid them. A study carried out on British and Canadian businessmen found that fear of failure can improve problem solving, as people are motivated to anticipate and resolve potential issues. 36 So it will help their business in the long run.37 It can drive confident people to do better, but it can also increase our doubts and turn them into barriers.A．It may motivate them more.B．But is one better than the other?C．Fear-based motivation is complicated.D．Then it can in turn lead them to do worse.E．Businessmen often run the risk of failure.F．They may also be inspired to learn new things.G．Is this idea beneficial for you to succeed?四、语法填空38．Beijing Olympic Park, also (know) as the Olympic Green, is located in Chaoyang District, Beijing, with a total land area of 11.59 square kilometers. （所给词的适当形式填空）五、书信写作39．假设你是红星中学高三学生李华，你和你校交换生Jim准备联合参加学校组织的校园文创设计大赛(Campus Cultural and Creative Design Competition), 请给Jim发邮件，内容包括：1. 分享你的创意;2. 询问Jim的建议。

2022年(有答案)江苏省扬州市某校高三年级(上)期中考试英语试卷

2022年（有答案）江苏省扬州市某校高三年级（上）期中考试英语试卷一、阅读理解1.（1）If you are interested in reading real stories of a person's life, you are likely to choose ________.A.Fade to BlackB.The Rising SeaC.The Flight AttendantD.Pi casso and the Painting That Shocked the World（2）Nighthaswk is the ________ edition in the NUMA adventure series.A.14thB.15thC.16thD.17th（3）According to the passage, Fade to Black is a ________.A.romanceB.thrillerC.news reportD.history book2.When Jennifer Doudna was in sixth grade, she came home one day to find that her dad had left a book titled The Double Helix on her bed. She put it aside, thinking it was one of those detective tales she loved.On a rainy Saturday, she picked up the book. As she sped through the pages, she became fascinated by the drama, which encouraged her to explore nature's wonders. Even though her high school teacher told her that girls didn't become scientists, she decided she would.She worked with a biologist, Charpentier, to turn a curiosity of nature into an invention—an easy-to-use tool that can edit DNA. Known as Crispr, the tool will transform the human race. James Watson, the author of The Double Helix, later told her it was the most important biological advance since he and Francis Crick discovered the structure of DNA.For this achievement, Doudna and Charpentier were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistryin 2020. Until now, only five women, beginning with Marie Curie in 1911, had won or shared the Nobel for Chemistry out of 184 award winners. When this year's prize was announced, Dr. Charpentier said it would provide a message specifically to young girls who would like to follow the path of science and to show them that women can also be awarded prizes.A few decades from now, if it becomes possible and safe to edit DNA, should we allow parents to improve the IQ and physical strength of their kids? Should we let them decide eye color? Skin color? Height? After helping to discover Crispr, Dr. Doudna has become a leader in considering these moral issues. That's the main message we should take from this Nobel: New technologies can be a huge benefit to the human race, but in order to make sure they are used wisely, it's important for people to understand them.（1）Jennifer Doudna decided to become a scientist because, ________.A.her father pushed herB.a book inspired herC.her teacher encouraged herD.James Watson motivated her（2）Dr. Doudna was awarded the Nobel Prize because, ________.A.she wrote the book "The Double Helix"B.she discovered the structure of DNAC.she is a hardworking woman scientistD.she helped invent a tool for editing DNA（3）According to passage, which of the following is NOT true?A.The two women's success will inspire more girls to be devoted to science.B.Since 1911, there have been 184 people who won the Nobel for chemistry.C.If girls follow the path of science, they will surely achieve their goals.D.Crispr will make a big difference to the human race.（4）Which words can best describe Jennifer Doudna?A.Determined and responsible.B.Ambitious and humorous.C.Cruel and indifferent.D.Fearless and stubborn.3.We're accustomed to thinking of environmental change, and its effects on our health, as being measured in years. But researchers are now discovering how quickly and dramatically air quality can improve—and how big an impact those improvements can make.For instance, when Atlanta hosted the 1996 Olympic Games, parts of the city were closed to cars for 17 days. In the following four weeks, kids' medical visits for lung diseases decreased bymore than 40 percent. In 1990, when Hong Kong passed stricter regulations for the content of fuel oil used by power plants and cars, SO2 levels immediately fell by 45 percent on average and as much as 80 percent in the most polluted areas. Within six months, there was a significant decrease in the number of deaths from air-related diseases.In March 2020, when businesses shut down because of the coronavirus pandemic, NO2 levels were about 30 percent lower on average in the north eastern United States than they were in the same month for the years 2015 to 2019. Also, during the month that China was under quarantine（隔离）from February to April because of the pandemic, one study estimated that improved air quality helped to impede more than 12,000 pollution-related deaths. With a recent study showing that the higher PM2.5 is, the more people will die from the COVID-19, measures to improve air quality maybe more important than ever before.（1）The examples in Paragraph 2 are given in order to prove that ________.A.kids often see doctorsB.people love the OlympicsC.air quality can improveD.cars should be prohibited（2）What does the underlined word "impede" mean in Paragraph 3?A.Increase.B.Recover.C.Witness.D.Prevent.（3）What might be the best title?A.The surprisingly fast-acting benefits of cleaner airB.The influence of COVID-19 on the environmentC.The cause and effect of the widespread diseaseD.The significance of fighting against COVID-19（4）What will the article probably talk about in the following part?A.The causes of COVID-19.B.The solutions to air problems.C.The examples of air pollution.D.The results of the air research.4.Any C.E.O. book ought to do two things. First, it should be a tale of how the author did it. In Bee Fearless, the 10-year-old C.E.O. Mikaila Ulmer's book, the origin story of Ulmer's compan begins with bee stings（蜇）, after which her parents encourage her to learn about the insects rather than fear them. She does some research and finds out that bees are in danger, which raised her concern.So the 4-year-old sets up a lemonade stand（柠檬汽水摊）outside her house in Austin, Texas. She sweetens her lemonade with honey, since bees make it and it's healthy. She sells it with an information card about bees. Her lemonade is awful at first, but a series of experiments produces something better. Best of all she donates money to bee-related organizations.People around Austin notice it. The owner of a pizza shop offers to sell the drinks if she bottles it. Then she is invited to the TV series "Shark Tank" and later goes to Hollywood. She leaves Hollywood with $60,000 and expands her lemonade business.So we have our good story. The second task is harder—for anyone, let alone a teenagerselling her story to other kids: How do you make people believe that they too could accomplishsomething like this?In Ulmer's book, she delivers the key to keeping in contact with customers like writing thank-you notes. She also writes about connecting with the strangers over a brief trade. Many grown-ups never learn the art of selling. Near the book's end, UImer describes telling a group of girls in South Africa to "imagine what it would feel like" to buy things they want without having to ask others for help.（1）What first inspired Ulmer to start her business?A.Her parents' blame.B.Her concern about bees.C.Her hatred for businesses.D.Her desire to help other girls.（2）What does the underlined word "this" in Paragraph 4 refer to?A.Writing a book of bee protection.B.Selling bees successfully.C.Succeeding in achieving one's goal.D.Saving bees in their own ways.（3）From Ulmer's story, we can infer that ________.A.after bee stings, she became afraid of beesB.her attempt on lemonade was a total failureC.her book only teaches girls how to help themselvesD.she develops a good relationship with customers（4）What is the purpose of this text?A.To introduce a book.B.To explain how to start a business.C.To advertise a drink.D.To recommend a famous company.二、七选五阅读阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
