AMama and I spend mornings cleaning up the dirt that blows into our house. Mama says all the dust is due to the drought. The dirt sifts into everything. It covers our clothes. We have to wash the dishes before each meal. We rarely drive the truck because Papa fears the dust from the road will ruin the motor.When my sister, Faye, and I walk to school, we wear kerchiefs over our mouths so we don’t breathe in the dirt. On days when the air is so bad that they close the school, we stay home and help Mama put wet sheets over the windows. But the dirt always finds a way in.Last Sunday, there was no dirt in the air， only bright spring sunshine and a clear blue sky. After lunch， Papa headed out to the field to check on the cattle while I played with Faye in the yard. The temperature suddenly dropped. I looked to the west and saw a huge black cloud of dust.All the birds flew away. “I must warn Papa，” I thought to myself. To avoid her panicking， I gently told Faye to go back inside where she would be safe， and then headed off to the field.The storm hit so fast， and in an instant the day turned into night. By the time I entered the cow field the fine sand was whipping across my face. I screamed for Papa， hoping my voice would lead him back.The dirt and sand stung my skin like a thousand bees. Although I was terrified， I refused to turn back. My dad was stranded and needed my help. Covering my face with one hand， I groped my way toward the truck and opened the door. First I tried turning the truck’s lights on and off， hoping that Papa would see them flashing， but the sandstorm let no light escape. Then I pushed the horn again and again， so Papa would hear it. I pushed until I had no more strength in my arms.Suddenly，Papa’s face appeared at the window. My heart leaped with surprise and relief. He opened the door and climbed onto the seat next to me. He then pulled me into his arms and said，“Oh， Iris，you saved me!”Finally， the wind subsided and the dust began to settle. Dirt was piled up to the window on one side of the truck and halfway up the door on the other. Papa kicked against the door， opening it far enough to let us out.Sand and soil drifts were everywhere， but we were safe.。

2020届烟台第二中学高中部高三英语模拟试题及答案解析

2020届烟台第二中学高中部高三英语模拟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AThe “laugh out loud” face is officially the world’s most popular emoji, according to researchers from Adobe (ADBE) who surveyed 7,000 users across the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Japan, Australia, and South Korea.The “thumbs up” emoji came in second, followed by the “red heart” emoji. The flirtatious “wink and kiss” and “sad face with a tear” emojis respectively rounded out the top five.The software maker on Thursday released the findings from its 2021 Global Emoji Trend Report ahead of World Emoji Day on Saturday.Adobe’s latest Emoji Trend report also examined the three most misunderstood emojis in the world. The “eggplant” symbol edged out the “peach” and the “clown” emojis respectively as the most confusing for users.The vast majority of emoji users (90%) believe the modern —day hieroglyphs make it easier for them to express themselves. Eighty — nine percent of respondents said emojis simplify communicating across language barriers. And 67% said they think people who use emojis are friendlier, funnier and cooler than those who don’t. A slight majority of respondents said they are more comfortable expressing emotions through emojis than talking on the phone or in —person. More than half of global emoji users (55%) said using emojis in communications has positively impacted their mental health. Seventy — six percent of those surveyed said emojis are an important communication tool for creating unity, respect and understanding. And 88% said they feel more empathetic toward people who use emojis.1.What are the three most popular emojis according to the passage?A.clown thumbs up laugh out loudugh out loud thumbs up wink and kissugh out loud thumbs up red heartD.thumbs up red heart sad face with a tear2.Which emoji is the most confusing one for users?A.Peach.B.Eggplant.C.Clown.D.Wink and kiss.3.Which of the following best describes the attitude of most people surveyed to emojis?A.Favorable.B.Passive.C.Indifferent.D.Doubtful.BRain is vital to life on Earth. However, rain isn’t just made of water anymore—it’s partly made of plastic.Millions of tiny pieces of plastic, called microplastics, are wandering around Earth’s atmosphere and traveling across entire continents according to a study published in one journal on April 12.Microplastics are plastic particles less than 5 millimeters in diameter and come from a number of sources. Plastic bags and bottles released into the environment break down into smaller and smaller bits. Some microplastics are produced deliberately to provide abrasion(研磨)in products, such as toothpaste and cleansers. Another major source is your washing machine. When you wash clothing, tiny microfibers get washed away with the wastewater. Even though the water is treated by a wastewater plant, the microplastics remain,and they are released into the sea.Plastic rain may remind people of acid rain, but the former is far more widespread and harder to deal with. The tiny particles, too small to be seen with the naked eye, are collected by the wind from the ground. They are so light that they stay in the air to be blown around the globe. As they climb into the atmosphere, they are thought to act as nuclei (核心) around which water vapor (水蒸气) combines to form clouds. Some of the dust falls back to land in dry conditions, while the rest comes down as rain.Microplastics have been found everywhere you can imagine. From fish and frogs to mice and mosquitoes, their bodies have been found on average to contain 40 pieces of microplastic. As the top of the food chain, humans are exposed to microplastics, too. “We live on a ball inside a bubble,” microplastic researcher Steve Allen said. “There are no borders, there are no edges. It rains on the land and then gets blown back up into the air again to move somewhere else. There’s no stopping it once it’s out.”4. What do we know about microplastics?A. They have a diameter of over 5 millimeters.B. They have become a threat to humans.C. They are light and can be easily dealt with.D. They cause acid rain and plastic rain.5. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A. Waysto deal with microplastics.B. The wide use of microplastics.C. Where microplastics come from.D. How microplastics pollute water.6. What does Steve Allen want to tell us in the last paragraph?A. No place can be safe from microplastic pollution.B. The atmosphere possesses the ability to self-cleanse.C. Countries should work together to fight pollution.D. Wind causes microplastics to move somewhere else.7. The main purpose of the article is to________.A. call on people to use fewer plastic productsB. warn people of the danger of microplasticsC. introduce the sources and effects of microplasticsD. make a comparison between acid rain and plastic rainCChimps use loud calls and gestures to make their feelings known but until now, the exact meaning for individual movements has remained a mystery. Now researchers believe they have translated the key gestures used in the chimp community and identified their intentions for the first time.From 4,351 gestures, experts were able to identify 66 that are used for 19 specific message meanings, including showing a foot to tell a child they can climb on their back. The researchers were able to narrow down these 66 gestures to 36 that are used intentionally to achieve 15 purposes. The translations were made by Dr Catherine Hobaiter and her colleagues at St Andrews University in Scotland.Dr Hobaiter used behavior sampling and filmed all recorded cases of gestural communication. Other gestures include stomping their feet to ask another chimp to stop what they are doing, and slapping objects together to ask another to follow them. Of the 19 meanings,17 encouraged interactions to start, or to develop, such as “move closer,” and “change play”. Some of the gestures were found to have more than one meaning. and only 10 of the 66 gestures were used for only a single meaning.Researchers collected a total of 471 video clips from two social groups of chimps at a shelter near Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo. As well as identifying what the gesture means, they also discovered the technique needed to increase the chances of success.“Human children use gestures to communicate before they produce their first words, and their earliest gestures typically appear around 10 months of age,” explained the researchers. “In great apes, there is good evidence that language-trained individuals are capable of acquiring and understanding signals, but this is far less clear in their natural communication. ”8. Chimps slap the objects to____________.A. tell others to stop what they are doingB. ask others chimps to join themC. gather other chimps to move closerD. encourage interactions to start9. What did researchers find after studying 471 video clips?A. Chimps trained in language are good at understanding signals.B. Two social groups of chimps live at a shelter near Kinshasa.C. Language-trained individuals do well in natural communication.D. Chimps’earliest gestures appear around 10 months of age.10. How is the last paragraph developed?A. By analyzing causes.B. By examining differences.C By making comparisons. D. By following time order.11. What can be a suitable title for the text?A A New Research on Chimps B. Human Children and ChimpsC. Getting the Chimps Trained for LanguageD. Translating the Sign Language of ChimpsDEveryone can be angry. But if you take the time to actually examine your anger instead of just “feeling” angry, you’ll have a better understanding of yourself. Knowing why you feel so angry can provide you with some surprising answers. These answers can enable you to suddenly grow spiritually and mentally.I can give you a personal example. I went to a meeting once and I was verbally attacked over an application I supported at my workplace. Various people went on and on about how terrible this system was and that it never worked. That didn’t bother me that much. I was used to that but one of the comments that was said was, “Your job is pointless.” This really upset meand at the time, I was ly furious(发怒地) with that comment.I was so angry and upset that they would treat me that way. Once I took the time to think about what was really making me so mad. I learned a lot. I realized that the comment was more truethan I wanted to admit. In the big scheme of things, my job was pointless. It wasn’t what I really wanted to be doing with my life and this was what frustrated me the most. Here I was pouring part of my heart and soul into a job I didn’t even really want to do. I was using it as a crutch(拐杖) because I didn’t have the confidence in myself to take the scary road towards what I really wanted to do. As soon as I realized that, a lot of my anger just melted away. I also realized that I needed to start focusing on what I really wanted to do.I now consider this incident as a great gift It got me back on track to moving in the direction I wanted to go with my life. I probably wouldn’t be where I am today if I hadn’t taken the time to figure out why I was really soangry.12. What made the author angry at the meeting?A. The system of the company was terrible.B. Someone said his job is insignificant.C. The policy of the company didn’t work.D. The application he supported was of no effect.13. What brought down the anger of the author?A. The apology someone made at the meeting.B. The crutch he used to take the scary road.C. His awareness of the fact that the comment was true.D. The courage he had to overcome the challenges.14. Why did the author consider the incident as a gift?A. It brought him back on track to the goal.B. It helped him get promoted to a higher position.C. It helped him change his character since then.D. It provided him with confidence in his career.15. What can be the best title of the passage?A. How to Cope with Verbal Attack in a CompanyB. Avoid Being Pointless at WorkC. Anger Is Harmful to HealthD. Understanding Yourself Better Through Anger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。

牛津译林版(2020)高中英语必修第三册Unit 3 单元组合练习(含答案解析)

高中英语必修第三册Unit 3 单元组合练习“阅读理解＋完形填空”组合练Ⅰ.阅读理解It’s summer，and school-aged kids are finding all kinds of ways to have fun，from a trip to the pool or playground to playing games with smartphones.As a result，they are also forgetting some of what they learned in school，a phenomenon called “summer slide”．Fortunately，summer slide can be prevented with just a little regular practice of fun.Encourage reading every day.Make a special event out of a trip to the public library，and let your kids pick out whatever interests them.Give your kids a special treat for every book they finish.Help them set up a reading corner in their room that’s quiet，comfortable and free of various electronic distractions.Best of all，give them the gift of your own example as an enthusiastic reader.Another way to make reading fun is to share a poem together.Poems by writers like Dr.Seuss，Shel Silverstein and Maurice Sendak are fun to read aloud，and often have a strong sense of humor that attracts children.Take turns reading them aloud to each other，talk about what they mean，and see if you can memorize your favorites.Then have a contest to see who can write the best poem.Summer is a great time to visit a learning place together.Children’s museums are specially designed to make learning fun and enjoyable for kids and let them practice essential skills.Or just take a walk together on one of our many nature paths，where your children can use their reading skills to learn about the plants，animals and geology around them.And of course，don’t forget the special programs offered by many local public libraries，along with many other learning materials for kids of all ages.语篇解读本文是一篇说明文，介绍了防止“夏季滑坡”的有趣方法。

2020年宁波市中考模拟测试英语试卷(含答案)

2020年宁波市普通高中保送生模拟测试英语试卷一、完形填空（每小题1分，满分15分）I was sitting in the surgical waiting area at the hospital waiting for word of my wife's operation. The small room was filled with other families and friends who were 1 waiting to hear how their loved ones were doing.There was a young boy sitting quietly in the 2 . He held a small box of crayons in one hand and a tablet (写字板) in the other. Every so often he'd place the tablet on his lap and draw something. As the hours passed I began to see the room almost 3 . And there was a strange silence.“Daddy, when is Mommy going home?” asked the young boy. “Tomorrow,” his father replied.I 4 him as he moved his feet back and forth, looking up at the ceiling and then toward the sunshine-filled window. “When's 5 , Daddy?” he asked. His father 6 him over to sit by him. __7 his things, the little boy walked slowly to his father's side from the corner.The man 8 out and held his son by his shoulders. “There are three days in life. Yesterday, today and tomorrow. One is over and done, one we live in, the other we 9 .We can't live in yesterday, but if we are happy enough today, we will be even happier tomorrow,” he said in an attempt to 10 the boy.The little boy looked at him for a moment and said, “If Mommy is going home tomorrow, I'll be __11 . So, I want it to be tomorrow already, Daddy.”Now hanging on every word of this conversation, I leaned forward to hear his response. It was 12 .“Son, the one great thing about today is once it 13 , it is already almost tomorrow.”I thought about how 14 it was. Even in my adult life, I still live waiting for what tomorrowmay 15 . Now I know that it is already “almost tomorrow”.1.A. patiently B. happily C. peacefully D. eagerly2.A. chair B. distance C. corner D. shadow3.A. dark B. empty C. full D. clean4.A. followed B. found C. caught D. watched5.A. today B. yesterday C. tomorrow D. future6.A. knocked B. ordered C. pulled D. called7.A. saving B. forgetting C. gathering D. choosing8.A. reached B. took C. set D. got9.A. spend B. waste C. expect D. kill10.A. frighten B. warn C. persuade D. satisfy11.A. better B. calmer C. smarter D. happier12.A. perfect B. silly C. active D. humorous13.A. ends B. passes C. starts D. lasts14.A. sincere B. important C. interesting D. meaningful15.A. happen B. come C. need D. bring二、阅读理解（每小题2分，满分30分）(A)Whenever my dog, Barney, comes into the house after having been for a ride in the car, he runs to the pen (围栏) we have set up for him by the back door. It's not something we intentionally trained him to do. The habit came simply because my husband tended to put him in his pen whenever they came in. After doing it a few times, Barney just figures that's what you do when you come inside after a car ride.It's the same with your thinking. You get into the habit of thinking a certain way and then you'll rarely question it after that.This is especially true when you were growing up. You developed habits that just made things easier for you. You probably didn’t even think about them. That's just the way it was and that's what you did. Just like Barney thinks he has to go into his pen, you do things automatically as well.For example, when you were a kid, you may have been told not to “talk back” and to just keep quiet about things that were bothering you. These are habits that might have worked to keep you safe and out of trouble when you were young.Now that you're grown up, you may be finding that these previous strategies are actually causing you problems. In a relationship, not communicating isn't going to work as your partner can't read your mind. What works when you're a child may not work when you become an adult.When you decide you need to change your thoughts, your brain may at first feel that it's not asafe thing to do. Lots of practice and years of experience says it's not. Also, you don't know to question the thought. It’s a truth for you. The trick is to look at your results and see if your thoughts are the cause. Be willing to question your thinking and ask yourself if there are thoughts that are hindering (妨碍) you. As you are now in a different phase of your life, different strategies may be needed.16. The writer gives the example of her dog in Paragraph1 in order to ________________?A. introduce the following passageB. show us her dog is cleverC. realize the importance of habitsD. tell us how to train a dog17. As with the dog Barney, people ________________________.A. think in a habitual wayB. enjoy having a car rideC. usually behave in a friendly wayD. have a good memory18. According to the passage, as a child, one may _________________.A. behave in a friendly wayB. have a very good memoryC. enjoy having a car rideD. follow what was told to do19. In the writer’s opinion, adults should _____________________.A. be able to express themselvesB. be afraid to make mistakesC. treasure their habits in childhoodD. avoid causing any problems20. We can conclude from the passage that _________________________.A. the writer’s husband must be good at training dogsB. childhood is the best time for developing good habitsC. one can change his/her life by changing his/her thoughtsD. we should change all our childhood habits when we grow up(B)If you're in a hard time, a tiny thing may be the greatest help for you. That’s touch. Touch is one of the most important of our five senses. It is one of the first senses we develop. One of the most commonly accepted forms of touch among people is also one of the first experiences we have in the world---A hug!There is no better way to understand the importance of hugs than to lose them. For those who have experienced the loss of hugs, you will know how important they are to share.A recent research has shown that when people hug, the brain releases the chemical which increases our willingness to trust and reduces fear. It has also shown that hugs are great for your heart.In 1995, a pair of newly born twins was being cared for in hospital. While one of the twins seemed quite healthy, her sister was not. After trying different medical treatments, the nurse on duty, Gayle Kasparian, placed the twins in bed together. The twins immediately snuggled (依偎)up to each other. As one placed her arm around the other, the weak baby became better gradually. How great the power of a hug is!The need for hugs doesn’t disappear as we grow older, though it seems we are less willing to give them. Research on people of all ages has proven that a hug is necessary for physical and emotional health.Without hugs we can become sad. A hug provides safety and gentleness. A hug provides us with social contact, a sense of health and a feeling of importance and belonging.21.The writer believe that ______________________.A. touch is the most important senseB. hug is one of human’s five senseC. touch is the first developed senseD. hug is one of the forms of touch22.A recent research has shown that __________________________.A. hug can release a kind of chemicalB. hug is good for people’s heartC. hug increases people’s fearD. hug reduces the feeling of trust23.The story of the twins tells us _________________________.A. twins should be placed in bed togetherB. the power of a hug is greatC. the twins should be looked after togetherD. medical treatments are important24.Which of the statements is TRUE according of the passage?A. A hug is the only form of touch among people.B. The loss of hugs can make them more important.C. Hugs can get people to trust each other moreD. We don’t need hugs when we grow older.25.The best title of the passage can be __________.A. The Great Importance of HugsB. The Different Ways of HugsC. The Traditional Cultures of HugsD. The Interesting Stories of Hugs(C)We desire to believe that we can get fit without effort. We invent chocolate-chip cookie diets to make us thin while eating fat. We wish to get fit from doing absolutely nothing. We wish to lie in bed, think about going to the gym and then, get the body a Greek god.A new study from Brian Clark at Ohio University shows that sitting still, while just thinking about exercise, might make us stronger. Clark and colleagues recruited 29 volunteers and wrapped their wrists in surgical casts for an entire month. During this month, half of the volunteers thought about exercising their immobilized wrists. For 11 minutes a day, 5 days a week, they sat completely still and focused their entire mental effort on pretending to flex their muscles. When the casts were removed, the volunteers that did mental exercises had wrist muscles that were two times stronger than those who had done nothing at all.The idea behind the research is not a new concept—just a concept that’s often neglected in the field of neuroscience our bodies and our brains develop together. Even though we treat our mind and bodies as two separate things, they are finally and closely connected.Indeed, even before Brian Clark published his study, other researched had explained links between the brain and the muscles. The years ago, Buang Yue at the Cleveland Clinic reported that imaginary exercise increases the strength of finger muscles by up to 35%. Just five years ago, Kai Miller at the University of Washington, showed that imaginary exercise activates the same brain areas that are activated during real exercise. Brain Clark’s research adds to this body of knowledge and provides compelling evidence about the role of neuromuscular pathways in strength training.26.What’s the purpose of chocolate-chip cookie diets?A. To keep strong.B. To grow thinner.C. To keep fat.D. To have muscles.27.The experiment proves that ___________________.A. wrapping their wrists may be quickB. showing their muscles needs effortsC. sitting still might make us strongerD. thinking about exercise is so useful28.Which of the following concepts is often neglected according to the passage?A.

that‟s nothing,” Mayor Pam Fogarty said of the punishments．“But it‟s the most we could do．People are saying to me, …Let‟s go burn down their house．‟”51．________ is the real person contributing to the girl‟s death．A．Josh Evans B．Ron Meier C．Lori Drew D．Craig McGuire52．Why was the woman NOT punished by the authority?A．Because she wasn‟t very rude and was only regarded as immature．B．Because she had nothing to do with the girl‟s death．C．Because all people agreed not to put her into prison．D．Because what she had done didn‟t go against the law．53．From the passage, we can know that ______．A．Megan Meier had her own page on MySpace．comB．the girl believed Josh Evans was an imaginary boyC．after the girl died, her parents found the murderer at onceD．it was the police who found the death of Megan Meier54．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _______．A．the mayor was tired and wanted to have a breakB．the measure to punish the criminals wasn‟t severeC．Pam Fogarty hadn‟t tried his best to solve the problemD．burning down such bad men‟s house is the best solutionBThe holiday shopping season is once again upon us．The super malls and smaller shopping centers will all be packed as hurried Americans search for the perfect gift．The crooks and thieves that prey upon innocent shoppers are well aware of this fact．Even if you don‟t in volve yourself with holiday gift buying, you could end up a victim of theft．Thieves do not distinguish the holiday shopper from the everyday shopper．Thieves only know that there are more potential targets of opportunity this time of year．They also know that many people are complacent (不以为然的) about personal safety issues year round．They‟ll factor in the belief that many people take on added stress this time of year while running from store to store with so much to do and so little time to do it．Shoppers who might normally consider personal safety an afterthought push it back even further as they try to negotiate their way through the month of December．College students are not an exception to the rule!As a member of our university community, you‟re also easi ly influenced by the dangers of mall shopping this time of year．Take a minute and picture any of the local area malls．Close your eyes and think about the overflowing parking lots and the crowds moving around．The sights, sounds and distractions all can lull you into a state of personal safety complacency．Aside from the shoplifters who steal merchandise from store shelves are the thieves who perpetrate (犯) snatch and grab crimes．And this is the sort of crime that you‟re most vulnerable to, especially when yo u find yourself carrying a large number of shopping bags and packages．However, as is the case with most other types of criminal behavior, there are a number of crime prevention measures you can take to lessen or stop your chances of becoming a victim．So take the time to read and then put into practice the following holiday shopping tips．55．The author is most probably _______．A．a newspaper reporter B．a novelistC．a member of university community D．a police spokesman56．What d oes the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A．Shoppers．B．Thieves．C．Personal safety issues．D．College students．57．Why is a person more likely to become a victim of theft during holiday shopping?A．Because he often has much to buy．B．Because he often does shopping in a hurry．C．Because there are crowds of shoppers．D．All of the above．58．What is the writer‟s purpose in writing this passage?A．To tell readers different kinds of crimes．B．To make readers aware of holiday shopping dangers．C．To give advice on selecting the perfect gift．D．To introduce American public security situation．59．Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?A．Holiday shopping safety．B．Suitable shopping places．C．Personal safety during holidays．D．How to identify a thief．CBEIJING — The rescue operations at a coal mine accident have ended with 105 miners dead．The StateCouncil has organized an investigation team to probe (调查) into what caused the disaster in the city of Linfen, North China‟s Shanxi Province．Preliminary investigations show the illegal mining of an unauthorized seam, and the number of miners who had been sent down the shaft far exceeded its capacity．This mine was found to have long disregarded the rules to steal state coal, and did not have a list of miners employed to check the number of miners missing after the accident．How did such a coal mine get all the necessary licenses for production? How did it pass the three safety inspections the local government organized last month?In response to this disaster, the Shanxi governor promised to set up hotlines for people to report illegal coal mines and rewards as high as 100,000 yuan for tip-offs．We appreciate the action this governor has taken to solving the coal mining problems, and we believe that the reporting scheme will help to stop the existence of illegal coal mines．But at the same time we have reason to question how governments at various levels supervise these mines．The sad fact that such a mine with serious safety problems could pass three consecutive local government safety inspections in a month is enough to tell us how ineffective the safety inspections were．What if these inspections were just a formality? What if the inspectors were bribed by the mine owners to turn a blind eye to the safety dangers? We can well imagine what would happen if reports about mine problems were handled by such officials．So a thorough probe must find out who are responsible for the death of so many miners．A real safety inspection and management system must be established to guarantee that safety dangers will be removed．60．What is NOT one of the causes of this coal mine accident?A．The workers didn‟t operate properly．B．The mine didn‟t obey t he rules to mine for coal．C．A lot more miners than allowed were working under the mine．D．The safety inspections were ineffective．61．According to the writer, who should be further investigated?A．Mine owners and miners．B．Miners‟ familie s and mine staff．C．Government officials and safety inspectors．D．The Shanxi governor and miners．62．What can we infer from the passage?A．More than 105 miners died in the disaster．B．Some other coal mines like this one exist in Shanxi province．C．Safety inspectors just turned a blind eye to hidden dangers．D．The three inspections were only a formality．63．What does the underlined word “tip-offs” probably mean in Paragraph 4?A．Some warnings．B．Some money for one‟s service．C．Some secret information．D．Some pieces of advice．DMany people are tired of their jobs and know they want to give something back to the environment, but have no idea where to look for a green-collar job．That‟s where consultants such as Marie Kerpan can help out．Tired of her own job as a career adviser at a New Y ork firm, and expecting the looming trend of green career changers, Kerpan in 2000, positioned herself as an environmental career consultant — the first, she claims, of her kind．Since then, her company, Green Careers, has helped thousands of people assess what cause their skills and interests are best suited to — which could be anything from renewable energy to water conservation — and has helped them get hired．Most of her clients come from middle management or higher, and are seeking what she calls a path-of-least-resistance move —“doing something you already know how to do and putting it in the context of the green agenda,” she explains．One former human resources manager at General Electric, for exa mple, had “a whole bag of tools, and justhad to figure out how to use them” in a green job．The solution was simple enough — she landed a post as human resources manager at an organic foods company．But if someone prefers his green career to be a completel y new experience, that‟s okay too．“This is a new frontier, and there‟s also a lot more freedom to make a greater change,” says Kerpan．Such was the case with architect-turned-activist Horowitz．As partner in San Francisco‟s KMD Architects, he seemed to have all: a central role in successful commercial projects, frequent travels to exciting destinations, and enough downtime to mind his own Sonoma V alley vineyard．But through his involvement with Equator Environmental, a for-profit group he co-founded with his nephew Gerrity Lansing, Horowitz awakened an inner passion for the environment．The creation and sale of carbon credits (碳排放信用), he realized, could make more profit by conserving rainforests than destroying them．64．According to the passage, what is a green-collar job?A．A job about human resources management．B．A job to deal with water conservation．C．A job about protecting the Earth．D．A job engaged in doing physical labor．65．What kinds of people tend to take on green-collar jobs?A．People from the countryside．B．Those who are good at growing green vegetables．C．Anyone who is tired of his present job．D．Those who have been successful in their well-paid jobs．66．Why do people change their present jobs for green-collar ones?A．Because they can breathe fresh air and enjoy natural scenery．B．Because they can live an easy life in green．C．Because they are tired of their present jobs and want to do something good to the environment．D．Because they can make more profit．67．What is the main topic of this passage?A．tching to green-collar jobs．B．What green-collar jobs are．C．The way to get green-collar jobs．D．Advantages of green-collar jobs．EBBC Complaints Code of PracticeHow to complainThere are

AI began working in journalism(新闻工作)when I was eight. It was my mother's idea. She wanted me to “make something” of myself, and decided I had better start young if I was to have any chance of keeping up with the competition.With my load of magazines I headed toward Belleville Avenue. The crowds were there. There were two gas stations on the corner of Belleville and Union. For several hours I made myself highly visible, making sure everyone could see me and the heavy black letters on the bag that said THE SATURDAY EVENING POST. When it was supper time, I walked back home.“ How many did you sell, my boy?” my mother asked.“ None.”“ Where did you go?”“ The corner of Belleville and Union Avenues.”“ What did you do?”“ Stood on the corner waiting for somebody to buy a Saturday Evening Post.”“ You just stood there?”“ Didn't sell a single one.”“ My God, Russell!”Uncle Allen put in, “ Well, I've decided to take the Post.” I handed him a copy and he paid me a nickle(五分镍币). It was the first nickle I earned.Afterwards my mother taught me how to be a salesman. I would have to ring doorbells, address adults with self-confidence(自信), and persuade them by saying that no one, no matter how poor, could afford to be without the Saturday Evening Post in the home.One day, I told my mother I'd changed my mind. I didn't want to make a success in the magazine business.“ If you think you can change your mind like this,” she replied, “ you'll become a good-for-nothing.” She insisted that, as soon as school was over, I should start ringing doorbells, selling magazines. Whenever I said no, she would scold me.My mother and I had fought this battle almost as long as I could remember. My mother, dissatisfied with my father's plain workman's life, determined that I would not grow up like him and his people. But never did she expect that, forty years later, such a successful journalist as me would go back to her husband's people for true life and love.21.Why did the boy start his job young?A.He wanted to be famous in the futureB.The job was quite easy for himC.His mother had high hopes for himD.The competition for the job was fierce22.From the dialogue between the boy and his mother, we learn that the mother was _____.A.excitedB.interestedC.ashamedD.disappointed23.What did the mother do when the boy wanted to give up?。

From then on, this elegant building has been characterized by its high-quality products and well-known guests: here, noblemen, politicians and intellectuals (知识分子）would meet. Today, the caf6 is an important cultural center where exhibitions are organized. But it remains an ideal place for tourists who simply want to enjoy an espresso sitting at a little table in the heart of Venice, a few steps from the Grand Canal.Gran Caffe QuadriAlso in St. Mark’s Square, there is another historic cafe thatsince 1775 has earned an important place among the many. Gran Caffe Quadri represents the memory of centuries in the late period of the Republic of Venice, and the birth of the modem age, and the secrets of the famous people who sat in its halls. Even today, Gran Caffe Quadri is a favorite of actors and directors attending the Venice Film Festival.H arry's BarMore recent, but equally absorbing, is the story of Harry's Bar, opened in 1931 and declared a national monument in 2001. Built from an old warehouse (仓库)close to Piazza San Marco, Harry’s Bar owes its name and existence to the American student Harry Pickering. This is not strictly a coffee bar, but inside intellectuals, artists, writers such as Arturo Toscanini, Guglielmo Marconi, Charlie Chaplin, all spent time.Caffe La CalcinaMoving to the southern limit of the city, in the ancient neighborhood called Le Zattere, we will find Caff6 La Calcina, another important spot that was a meeting place for artists and writers in the early 1900s. The place is now a bar and restaurant called La Piscina, in memory of the bathhouse with a pool that used to be there.1. Where would you go if you are interested in cultural events?A.

They are located in St. Mark’s Square.BEarthworms (虫丘虫引）were the beginning of a childhood dream for Jane Goodall. Her mother told a story of going to Goodall’s room when she was one and a half years old.‘‘ She ’ d found I ’ d taken a whole handful of earthworms to •bed with me，，’Goodall said, u and instead of getting mad, she said very quietly, ‘ They ’11die if you leave them here, they need dirt. “So together we took them back into the garden.”“I never went to university after school because we couldn’t afford it，” she said. Since college was impossible, she got a secretarial job with Louis Leakey, the famous biologist.It was in the Serengeti plains that Leakey realized Goodall was capable of much more than a secretary. “He just saw that I was very passionate about being out in the wilderness and animals and that I was a good observer,” Goodall said.Leakey sent Goodall to Tanzania to observe chimpanzees (黑60广东教育•高中2021年第6期GUANG DONG JIAO YU GAO ZHONG獲獲）in the wild in hopes that their behavior could help explain his research on early humans.Goodall was surprised by the chimps’love for one another and the bonds between families.She also was surprised when she witnessed one chimpanzee removing the leaves from a small branch and using it as a tool to catch ants.4<At that time,we were defined as the only tool-making creature on the planet/*Goodall said.Goodall sent a telegram to Leakey,who replied,“Scientists are faced with tw o alternatives:Either accept chimpanzees as man,by definition,or else re-define man.”There is no sharp line dividing us from the rest of the animal kingdom，”Goodall said.“It’s a very indistinct line，and it teaches us so clearly that we are not separate from the rest of the animal kingdom,but part of it.”At 86 years old,Goodall still is educating,discovering and working to bridge the gap between man and chimpanzee.4.What do we know about Goodall’s mother?A.She was strict.B.She was bad-temperedC.She was wise.D.She was well-educated.5.What did Louis Leakey find in Goodall?A.Her interest in living in the wilderness.B.Her patience to look after animals.C.Her ability to do secretarial work.D.Her talent for observing animals.6.Why does Goodall suggest either accepting chimpanzees as man or redefine man?A.She witnessed chimpanzees can catch ants.B.She found chimpanzees can make tools.C.She watched the chimps*love for man.D.She accepted chimpanzees as man.7.What is the main idea of the passage?A.Goodall found interest in observing chimps.B.Goodall devoted her life to studying chimps.C.Goodall was inspired by her mother to study chimps.D.Goodall gave up college to observe animals in the wild.cWhen you go to a grocery store(食品杂货店），you expect to pay for your goods with money.But students at a high school in Texas,US,opened a store that runs on good deeds.In November,students from Linda Tutt High School in the city of Sanger opened a grocery store that enables students to buy necessities using a point system.The store aims to support families in need.M In our school district,a good many students are considered economically disadvantaged,”explained Anthony Love,principal of Linda Tutt.M About 3.6 percent of our students are considered homeless.We thought it important to support them and their families and make sure they had food on the table/*Students earn points by contributing positively to the school. For those students from poor families,the point system has provided a way for them to shop for their families.44They can earn points for doing chores (杂活）around the building or helping to clean，”Love said.The number of points for each item was actually decided by the students.M So we walked through here and decided that a can of green beans was one point，”said Paul Juarez,the director of First Refuge Ministries.Juarez said that he hopes the idea gets implemented (实施）in other areas.“It gives us a picture of what can be.So if we can do this inside other schools,it will do a whole lot to help other small towns.”In addition to the financial benefits,students also learn about supply management and customer service,and such lessons could prepare them for future jobs.The grocery store1s student manager, Hunter Weertman,said he has already learned important life skills from his experience at the store.The store practice was also welcomed by Thomas Muir, Sanger’s mayor.“We all had our first jobs and it taught us how to work，and what you got for your work，”he said.“I think this will do that for them too,and also meet an immediate need/*8.Why did the students open the grocery store?A.To support poor families.B.To learn to manage money.C.To finish their research project.D.To provide students with necessities.9.How could the students earn points?A.By doing chores at home.B.By shopping for their families.C.By doing good deeds at school.D.By volunteering in the community.10.

What does the author intend to tell us in the last two paragraphs?A.The benefits from the store practice.B.The future jobs the students can get.C.The methods of doing a job well.D.The measures to meet an immediate need.DThere’s loads of research that shows that spending time in广东教育•高中2021年第6期 61n傲考场娜操练nature is good for your health and well-being.But not everyone lives near a park.And not everyone can easily get outdoors.So, what happens when you bring nature into your home via TV?A new study finds that a virtual nature experience can have some of the same effects.For the study,researchers from the University of Exeter in the U.K.brought 96 adults into a lab and created boredom by having them watch a four-minute video of a man discussing his work at an office supply company.Then,the study participants experienced scenes of an under-water coral reef (珊湖瞧）scene from the BBC’s“Blue nanet II，’series.They watched it on TV,with a virtual reality headset using 360-degree video,or with a virtual reality headset using computer-generated interactive graphics (交互式图形)•Researchers found that all three methods greatly reduced negative feelings like sadness and significantly lowered boredom. The interactive virtual reality experience actually increased positive feelings,such as happiness,and strengthened the connections people said they had to nature.4<I think we were m ost surprised that just watching nature on TV led to positive changes across each of our measures,suggesting that even short,five-minute bursts of watching natural history programming can have an effect on well-being，”study co-author Alex Smalley says.Originally,the motivation behind the study was to research benefits for people who were stuck indoors,such as those in nursing homes or people recovering from illness.But there are entirely new positive results in today*s world due to COVID-19.“We never imagined a pandemic (流行病）would mean the results might apply to such a big part of the global population，’’Smalley says. “We’d always recommend trying to get out into nature wherever possible but for those who can’t,our findings suggest that digital experiences of nature could provide a short-term fix/*12.What’s the new study about?A.The significance of living a green life.B.The effects of watching nature on TV.C.The necessity of going out into nature.D.The methods of increasing positive feelings.13. Why did researchers ask the participants to watch a four- minute video?A.To observe their different reactions.B.To let them know more about life.C.To attract their attention.D.To make them feel bored.14. What can we learn about the researchers from Alex Smalley’s words?A.They will carry out the study across the world.B.They found m ost people surprised at their study.C.They had some unexpected findings in the study.D.They suggested people watch TV for a short while.15.Who would probably be m ost interested in the study?A.People who are kept indoors.B.People who work in hospitals.C.People who enjoy watching TV.D.People who travel on business.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分115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。
