AParis is the most wooded city in Europe, and around one quarter of its area is taken up by parks, gardens and other green spaces.Jardin des Plantes: over 28 hectaresThis impressive botanical garden is home to four museums, including the Natural History Museum, which houses a variety of African animals. The gardens themselves boast thousands of species of plants. This is a lovely place to relax and explore the beautiful surroundings.Parc des Buttes-Chaumont: over 24 hectaresIf you want to get off the tourist trail and hang out with true Parisians, this park is the perfect spot for a relaxing picnic or a leisurely wander. It is in the 19th district and is one of the largest parks in Paris. Cross its lake on the suspension bridge, or admire the waterfalls and attractive temples.Jardin du Luxembourg: over 25 hectaresThese beautiful gardens were first laid out in 1612 as the gardens of the Luxembourg Palace. They include a geometric forest, French and English style gardens, as well as a large pond. There is so much to see and do with activities especially for children, such as slides, rides and puppet shows, as well as leisure and sporting activities foradults. The gardens are home to more than one hundred sculptures.Le Parc de la Villette: 55 hectaresThis urban cultural park is so much more than just a park as it is home to numerous music venues, exhibition spaces and cafes. It is also home to no less than 12 gardens, which all follow different themes. The Passenger Gardens, for example, which are built on what was once the sheep market, support a variety of ecosystems, demonstrating the importance of biodiversity.1. Which green space probably suits students who are interested in botany?A. Jardin des Plantes.B. Parc des Buttes-Chaumont.C. Jardin du Luxembourg.D. Le Parc de la Villette.2. Which is special about Jardin du Luxembourg?A. They used to be royal gardens.B. They are Parisian favourite gardens.C. They feature American style gardens.D. They house a variely of African animals.3. What can visitors do in Le Parc de la Villette?A. Visiting museums.B. Attending concerts.C. Admiring waterfalls.D. Watching puppet shows.BI became aware of my stutter(结巴)when I was around 9, in the fourth grade. I began to see how other people viewed me. When the teacher asked the whole class questions, I never raised my hand though I knew the answer, because I knew I would stutter. Some kids would tell me that I talked funny, ask why I didn't talk normally, or laugh at me. As soon as that started to happen, I became more introverted(内向的).It wasn't until the summer of 2015, before freshman year at high school. All my friends and my parents encouraged me to join the high school football team. I owed much to them, especially Coach Lane who taught me how to play football. He took the time-and had the patience-to actually teach me what to do, how to do it and how to understand the concepts of play.In junior year, I started my first game for the high school team. I had a very good season and in January 2018, I signed the University of North Carolina. The older we get, the more of an understanding we have about the world and other people. So the first time my teammates in college heard me talk and heard that I stuttered, they did not say a thing. That was a big deal to me because I was so used to people making comments. My teammates actually tell me to slow down because talking faster causes me to stutter more. It's really helped me develop confidence.Whenever I go back home to Georgia, I volunteer with children at my church, including those who have learning disabilities. I like to do that to inspire them with confidence. I had confidence issues when I was a kid because of mystutter, so I just don't want them to have to go through what I did. In the future, I would like to start a foundation to give back to people who stutter and create a program where kids all across the world who have a stutter can have a safe space.4. Why did NOT the author raise his hand in class?A. He didn't know the answer.B. He was too shy to speak in public.C. He was upset about kids' comments.D. He showed no interest in the question.5. What was one cause of the author's decision to play football?A. Guidance from coaches.B. Great interest in football.C. Expectations from parents.D. Encouragement from friends.6. Which of the following best describes the author?A. Grateful and caring.B. Helpful and talkative.C. Athletic and generous.D. Confident and patient.7. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. An Unconfident ChildB. An Introverted V olunteerC. An Admirable CoachD. An Inspiring FootballerCA paper published on November 15 in Current Biology suggests that a patch(小块)of cells developed for identifying human faces, the fusiform face area(FFA), is up and running in infants(婴儿)as young as two months old.Rebecca Saxe, a professor of brain and cognitive sciences at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and her colleagues scanned 42 infants ranging in age from two to nine months using a special functional magnetic resonance (磁共振)imaging(fMRI)helmet designed specifically for babies. Data from 16 of the infants had to be thrown out because it is extremely difficult to keep them happy, still and awake for long. For the 26 remaining infants, the scientists compared activity in visual areas of the brain while they watched 2.7-second video clips that described faces, body parts, landscapes, and other objects. Results showed more activity in the areas of the brain's visual system that are specialized for recognizing faces, bodies and scenes than areas for other observed objects."There's every reason to think that babies are born expecting and looking for their most important social partners, Saxe says." Something in their brain makes them interested in faces actually before they've had any experience with faces at all. Babies look toward face-like images from hours after birth."Other researchers are not convinced by Saxe's conclusions. "I don't believe that there are face patches present at birth," Livingstone says. He views experience and learning are essential for the development of the FFA.To Kalanit Grill-Spector, a psychology professor at Stanford University, the most exciting part of the new paper is not about this question of learned versus inborn development. "I think the study is kind of attempting to address this question, but it doesn't really provide a perfect answer one way or another. What impressed me is the amount of babies that they've scanned and with a lot of new innovations in baby fMRI," she says. "That's going to push the field forward."8. Why were the data from the 16 infants abandoned?A. Because the infants didn't watch the video clips.B. Because the infants made no response to the objects.C. Because the infants couldn't focus on objects for some time.D. Because the infants were unwilling to wear helmets for long.9. How did the researchers get the results?A. By listing figures.B. By asking questions.C. By analyzing reasons.D. By making comparisons.10. Which statement would Rebecca Saxe probably agree with?A. Infants can process facial patterns and give them meaning.B. Specialized areas for recognizing faces are present at birth.C. Some abilities of the visual system are gradually developed.D. Experience and learning are essential for the development of the FFA.11. Which word best describes Grill-Spector's attitude to the way of the research?A. Objective.B. Skeptical.C. Favorable.D. Disapproving.DThe Amazon rainforest, is as undisturbed a place as most people can imagine, but even there, the effects of a changing climate are playing out. Now, research suggests that many of the region's most sensitive bird species are starting to evolve in response to warming.Birds are often considered sentinel(哨兵)species-meaning that they indicate the overall health of an ecosystem-so scientists are particularly interested in how they're responding to climate change. In general, the news has not been good. For instance, a 2019 report by the National Audubon Society found that more than two-thirds of North America's bird species will be in danger of extinction by 2100 if warming trends continue on their current course.For the new study, researchers collected the biggest dataset so far on the Amazon's resident birds, representing 77 non-migratory species and lasting the 40 years from 1979 to 2019. During the study period, the average temperature inthe region rose, while the amount of rainfall declined, making for a hotter, dryer climate overall. According to the report on November 12 in the journal Science Advances, 36 species have lost substantial weight, as much as 2 percent of their body weight per decade since 1980. Meanwhile, all the species showed some decrease in average body mass, while a third grew longer wings.Because of the study's long time series and large sample sizes, the authors were able to show the morphological (形态学的)effects of climate change on resident birds. However, the researchers themselves are unsure and wonder what advantage the wing length changes give the birds, but suppose smaller birds may have an easier time keeping cool. In general, smaller animals have a larger rate of surface area to body size, so they dissipate more heat faster thana bigger animal. Less available food, such as fruit or insects, in dryer weather might lead to smaller body size.12. Why are scientists fond of doing research on birds?A. They have small body sizes.B. They are sensitive to hot weather.C. They live in an undisturbed rainforest.D. They are ecological balance indicators.13. What can we learn from the new study?A. A third of species have been extinct for a decade.B. 36 species lost 2%of their body weight every year.C. Two-thirds of species showed a considerable decrease in weight.D. About 26 species responded to climate change with longer wings.14. What does the underlined word "dissipate" in the last paragraph mean?A. Put off.B. Give off.C. Put away.D. Give away.15. What would probably the researchers further study?A. Why it is easier for smaller animals to keep cool.B. What effects the wing length changes have on birds.C. Why the Amazonian birds have lost substantial weight.D. Whether bird species in North America will be extinct in 2100.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

His first post explored the use of English font (字体) on Hong Kong's road signs. “That post surprisingly received many likes and shares, so it got me thinking abo ut expanding my audience,” he recalled.In 2016, the enthusiast collected 50 Chinese characters from Hong Kong's road signs and outlined and uploaded the image to his Facebook account. A friend suggested turning this collection into a font. Yau saw it as a means to preserve a cherished aspect of Hong Kong's history. About twenty years ago, many of the city's signs featured handcrafted characters made by prisoners. However, as design technology adsances, these tradi tional signs are gradually being replaced,Following. yisits the remaining traditional road signs in the city, Yau's team had outliried approximatel y 500 characters. Yet, this fell short of the 7,000 Chinese characters required for practical use by those who us e Chinese daily. Faced with this limitation, the team began ercating new characters by mixing and matching existing components, adjusting line thickness, and modifying radicals (部首). For instance, when they couldn' t locate the Chinese character for“prison” on any existing signs, they designed one from scratch. This process英语测试题第2页 (共10页)involved extensive trial and error.After six years of dedicated effort, Yau found motivation in the constant enthusiasm of his follower s. “They’ ve been cagerly anticipating this project for as long as l' ve been working on it,” he remarked. “O ne even expressed that he had been waiting for this font since his first year of secondary school. Now, as a sixth grader, his wait is finally over.Yau is thrilled to witness how his followers will use this digital font.“I cannot own a road sign. but what I can do is digitize it,” Yau said. “I did not want to just document it but develop it into something we can use in daily life. This is a way to preserve Hong Kong's visual cultural memory.”4. What inspired Yau to design a font?A. His interest in road signs.B. His popularity with his fans.C. His desire to restore history.D. His passion for city planning.5. Why did Yau's team create new characters?A. To combine the components.B. To meet the need of daily use.C. To set limitation to the characters.D. To replace the traditional road signs.6. Why did the writer mention Yau's followers?A. To highlight their dedicated cfYort.B. To show their support to the project.C. To explain their role in digitizing the font.D. To indicate their passion to share his posts.7. Which of the following can best describe Yau?A. Practical and efficient.B. Confident and resourceful.C. Determined and innovative.D. Ambitious and competitive.CThe field of anti-ageing medicine has exploded in recent years due to discoveries about the fundamen tal biology of ageing which are translated into experimental therapies (疗法). The latest fountain of youth to pour from the lab comes in the form of vaccines (疫苗) against age-related conditions—— cancer, heart dise ase, dementia and more. The first of these could be available by the end of the decade. All-purpose anti-agei ng injections are also in development.The upsides of such vaccines are clear. Anything that limits the impact of age-related conditions on people who live into old age— not to mention on the loved ones who often end up caring for them— has to be welcomed. They also promise to lessen effect on the increasingly societal and economic costs of these dis eases.英语测试题第3页 (共10页)But as with all anti-ageing interventions, there are potential downsides too. If millions of people livesignificantly longer, we risk a population explosion on a planet whose resources are already overstretched. If t he vaccines merely delay the beginning of age-related conditions, they will only postpone the burden on peopl e and society. And as Nobcl prizewinner Venki Ramakrishnan told us carlier this year. a long-lived society islikely to be an unmoving one. These are familiar fears. The common answer is that the goal is increased healt hspan. That means people living for longer. free from the diseases of old age, then suddenly declining anddying.We wońt know the-outcome until : the therapies have been widely used, at which point it will be too late to put the genie back in the bottle. But there is really no turning back anyway. If vaccines and other anti-ageing therapies work and are affordable, they will be used. Besides, nɔbody would argue that innovation s like antibiotics, vaccines and advanced diagnostics were a bad idea even though they marked the beginning of our era of age-related diseases. Similarly, we shouldn't fear life-saving medical advances on the basis of un intended consequences. If we can make lives longer and less painful, the downsides are a price worth paying.8. Why is the field of anti-ageing medicine growing rapidly?A. The biology of ageing is better applied.B. The trend of healthy lifestyle is rising.C. The demand for longer life is increasing.D. The number of elderly is rising globally.9. How do anti-ageing vaccines benefit society?A. By increasing the workforce.B. By curing people of diseases.C. By boosting economic growth.D. By reducing healthcare expense.10. What does the underlined phrase“put the genie back in the bottle” mean?A. To stop the process of ageing.B. To erase the impact of the therapics.C.

He had instructed his friend Max Brod to burn his unpublished works. Brod did not: he believed Kafka to be a literary genius and publishe d his late friend's writing. In other words, Brod decided that Kafka's stories belonged not to the late author, but to the public.Brod's dilemma echoes today. People generate' more data than ever, which, unlike physical bodies, does not disappear. According to Carl Ohman, a Swedish political scientist. this condition makes the modern world“post-mortal”(死后的).“Living in the post-mortał condition is to constantly find oneself in the shoes of Max Brod", he observes.The digital era has reshaped humans’ relationship with the dead—— as seen in social media reminders for birthdays of dead individuals. Such reminders are to grow more common: Mr. Ohman's research has foun d that on Facebook the dead may well outnumber the living within 40 years. Advanced technology enables a continued relationship with the dead, such as Amazon's development of a feature for Alexa, virtual assistant, to speak in the voice of a lost relative. Startups have used data to make chatbots of the dead-to strengthen use rs’ commercial relationship, Mr. Ohman points out.At the root of Ohman's book The Aftorlife of Data is various complex philosophical questions. To whom do the dead's data belong? Are data something people create, or a digital analogue (类比) to a physical body? If data are a digital form of the body, what responsibilities does the living have? These are not merel y questions for individuals but for society. After all, historians often study the diaries of the dead. Their write rs may have preferred to keep them private, but the light that such documents can shine on humanity's past outweighs the late owner's wishes. Mr. Ohman: notes that data constitute“the biggest database of human behavioùr in the history of our species”. And he urges that the social media firms should think twice in terms of how they handle digital remains.12. What is the function of paragraph 1?A. To emphasize Kafka's literary talent.B. To lead to the discussion on data handling.C. To praise the act to publish Kafka's works.D. To write an introduction for Ohman's book.13. Why do people buy Alexa, the virtual assistant?A. To create a digital database.B. To control devices by voice.C. To access information quickly.D. To communicate with the dead.14. What problem will people face in post-mortal world according to the passage?A. How to manage the dead's data.B. How to realize the dead's wishes.C. How to protect the dead's privacy.D. How to restore the dead's. belongings.15. Which of the following will Mr. Ohman probably agree with?A. Data should be in the possession of individuals.B. Historians should control access to digital remains.C. Data's historical value is more important than the dead's will.D. Social media firms should be fined for misuse of digital remains.第二节 (共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)在后面的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

广东省华南师范大学附属中学2022-2023学年高三上学期综合测试英语试题一学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解Do you remember the first stop-motion movie, with a galloping(飞奔)horse? Eadweard Muybridge made it in 1872, and the funny thing is—the first stop-motion movie was made because of a bet. The question was: do all four of the horse’s hooves (蹄)leave the ground at the same time at any point of the gallop? And Leland Stanford, the founder of the Stanford University, hired Muybridge to help him settle the bet.Stanford claimed that, at some point of the gallop, all four of the horse’s hooves are in the air. Some of his colleagues took a common stand that one foot is always on the ground. It was a popularly debated question of the time, and it was Muybridge’s task to provide the answer using his photographic knowledge.Now, you can imagine that cameras in 1872 couldn’t really capture the things moving quickly. Movie cameras still didn’t exist, so it was out of the question. So, Muybridge had to get creative. He experimented with a set of 12 cameras. He used them to photograph a galloping horse in a series of shots. His initial efforts seemed to prove that Stanford was right, but he still didn’t have the process perfected.In 1878, Muybridge raised his creativity and skill on a new level. He set twelve wired triggers (触发器) connected to shutters (快门) for cameras. He placed them evenly along the race track to capture the galloping horse. As the horse galloped the race track, it set off the triggers and made every camera take a photo with less than half a second difference.The photos showed that Leland Stanford was right, and obviously, he won the bet. But this invention was a winning situation for all of us. Muybridge later invented a zoopraxiscope, which was a bit like the GIFs that people now post on social media and is considered an early device for displaying motion pictures. Thanks to photography and his invention, the cinema was born.1.Which of the following words best describes the invention of the first stop-motion movie? A.Difficult.B.Unexpected.C.Serious.D.Interesting.2.Why did Muybridge have to be creative?A.Because he was lacking in devices.B.Because he was afraid of failure.C.Because he was short of experience.D.Because he was interested in experiment.3.What can we know about Muybridge’s experiment?A.Twelve horses galloped at the same time.B.Muybridge invented GIF in the experiment.C.One camera was used to take photos in the first attempt.D.The triggers were set off by the horse in the second attempt.4.What is the best title for the article?A.A special history of cinema.B.A popular study about horses.C.A bet inspired the birth of cinema.D.A question led to great experiments.A character in one of Shakespeare’s plays once said, “Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.” Any of these could apply to the modern-day sportsmen. Many still argue about the nature of talent. Some claim that people are born to be sportsmen, while others say it is only through devotion and hard work that they achieve their abilities. Arguably though, it is not until their talents are acknowledged (认可) by the public that they truly have greatness fallen upon them.With this acknowledgement of their “greatness” come all the trappings of modern-day celebrity: money, power, influence and responsibility. For better or for worse, like it or hate it, modern sportsmen are the role models of children everywhere. These children will grow up admiring their heroes, devoting their lives to copying their every move, and wanting above all to be like them. Due to this fascination, particularly with the massive influence of the media, it is more important than ever for these sportsmen to acknowledge their responsibility.In the past few months alone, there have been many examples of questionable behaviors from sports stars of the present day. They are often mirroring the very worst aspects of society, a fact that the self-righteous (自以为是的) anger of the modern press has been quick to point out. It would be wrong for us to expect sportsmen to be perfect. It would also be wrong for us to think that their behavior is markedly different from the sportsmen they grew up watching, but with the all-seeing eye of modern media it is a different world, and different standards must be expected.Of course, there is no duty for sportsmen to be good role models. There are no prison sentences, no fines, no community service—unless their behaviors are illegal. Unless they break the law, it is entirely up to them as to whether or not they think their behavior is appropriate. Furthermore, measuring the true influence their decisions have on their followers is absolutely impossible. Some will rise against their idols, seeing them in a new light and criticizing their actions. Others may copy their heroes’ actions, using them as a shield when accused of the same crimes.It is without doubt that the actions of sportsmen will influence the lives of those who worship them. Modern day sportsmen are almost ideals of today’s world, and their actions are watched carefully by millions over the world. Some may complain against it, denying their influence on these children’s lives. Others may be aware of it but not respect it, while many may both be aware of it and respect it. In a word, you do not choose whether you are a role model. All you can do is to decide how to act when greatness is thrust upon you.5.In Paragraph 1, the author tries to emphasize ______.A.sportsmen become great when their gifts are recognized by peopleB.sportsmen achieve greatness through their devotion and effortsC.different ways for sportsmen to achieve success and greatnessD.the core characteristic to become great sportsmen nowadays6.According to Paragraph 4, we can learn that ______.A.role models usually have positive influence on their fansB.sportsmen have the right to behave freely within the lawC.all the fans will follow their heroes’ actionsD.no duty is given to sportsmen7.The underlined phrase thrust upon in paragraph 1 most probably means ______.A.put off B.removed from C.related to D.forced on 8.What is the main purpose of the passage?A.To advise the media to choose proper events to report.B.To inform the public that sportsmen are no role models.C.To remind the sportsmen of their social responsibilities.D.To argue that sportsmen should not be expected as heroes.Washing clothes by hand sounds like a simple task, but for many women around theworld it can do harm to their well-being and living. What would you do with your time if you could spend less time washing your clothes? “Paid work,” replied Aleas, a 49-year-old woman from a family of 10 with no access to an electric washing machine. She spent 8-12 hours every week washing everyone’s clothes by hand and described how the required body position of sitting on her feet caused her back pain.Washing Machine Project provides low-income communities with an accessible washing solution. Its task is to help women save the time to take charge of their lives. “A mother or a child doesn’t have to spend 20 hours a week washing clothes by hand,” said Nav Sawhney, an engineering student at University of Bath in the UK.Sawhney has created a movable washing machine that is operated by hand. He came up with the idea when Divya, a woman he met in southern India, explained the struggle of washing clothes without a machine. This burden is often shouldered by women and girls in many developing countries. Now, Sawhney’s washing machines, which he named Divya after the woman, could greatly reduce the time of washing clothes and allow women and young girls to receive education and have paid work.After research in Iraq, Lebanon, the Philippines and Jordan, as well as India, Sawhney came up with a machine that uses only 10 liters of water every time, compared with 30 by a typical electric machine, extremely important in places where water is short. It’s also made out of things that are easy to get and replace, which means it doesn’t need much money to make it. Sawhney and his volunteers won the support of University of Bath, and already received orders from Kenya, Nigeria and Uganda.9.What does washing clothes by hand mean to Aleas?A.A hard way of making a living.B.A simple method of killing time.C.The tiring housework she has to do.D.The family duty she volunteers to do.10.Why was the washing machine named after Divya?A.She inspired the invention.B.She helped with the design.C.She was the first to order it.D.She thought up the idea first. 11.What can we learn about the washing machine “Divya”?A.It is cheap and water-saving.B.It is mainly promoted in India.C.It is shared by a community.D.It is free to use.12.What is the main purpose of Sawhney’s washing machines?A.To develop the market in developing countries.B.To reduce women’s burden in low-income areas.C.To take the place of traditional washing machines.D.To wash clothes in an environmentally-friendly way.Quantum (量子) computers have been on my mind a lot lately. A friend has been sending me articles on how quantum computers might help solve some of the biggest challenges we face as humans. I’ve also had exchanges with two quantum-computing experts. One is computer scientist Chris Johnson who I see as someone who helps keep the field honest. The other is physicist Philip Taylor.For decades, quantum computing has been little more than a laboratory curiosity. Now, big tech companies have invested in quantum computing, as have many smaller ones. According to Business Weekly, quantum machines could help us “cure cancer, and even take steps to tun climate change in the opposite direction.” This is the sort of hype (炒作) that annoys Johnson. He worries that researchers are making promises they can’t keep." What’s new,” Johnson wrote, “is that millions of dollars are now potentially available to quantum computing researchers.”As quantum computing attracts more attention and funding, researchers may mislead investors, journalists, the public and, worst of all, themselves about their work’s potential. If researchers can’t keep their promises, excitement might give way to doubt, disappointment and anger, Johnson warns. Lots of other technologies have gone through stages of excitement. But something about quantum computing makes it especially prone to hype, Johnson suggests, perhaps because “quantum” stands for something cool you shouldn’t be able to understand. And that brings me back to Taylor, who suggested that I read his book Q for Quantum.After I read the book, Taylor patiently answered my questions about it. He also answered my questions about PyQuantum, the firm he co-founded in 2016.Taylor shares Johnson’s concerns about hype. but he says those concerns do not apply to PyQuantum.The company, he says, is closer than any other firm “by a very large margin (幅度)”to building a “useful” quantum computer, one that “solves an impactful problem that we would not have been able to solve otherwise.” He adds, “People will naturally discount my opinions,but I have spent a lot of time quantitatively comparing what we are doing with others.”Could PyQuantum really be leading all the competition“ by a wide margin”, as Taylor claims? I don’t know. I’m certainly not going to advise my friend or anyone else to invest in quantum computers. But I trust Taylor, just as I trust Johnson.13.How does the author feels about Tobnson’s concerns?A.Approving.B.Unconcerned C.Doubtful.D.Excited. 14.What leads to Taylor’s optimism about quantum computing?A.His dominance in physics.B.The competition in the field.C.His confidence in PyQuantum.D.The investment of tech companies. 15.What does the underlined word “prone” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A.Open.B.Cool.C.Useful.D.Resistant. 16.Which would be the best tide for the passage?A.Is Johnson More Competent Than Taylor?B.Is Quantum Computing Redefining Technology?C.Will Quantum Computers Ever Come into Being?D.Will Quantun Computing Ever Live Up to Its Hype?二、七选五Your house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. ____17____ Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.____18____ Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious when they’re in poorly lit places — and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.Mind the colors. ____19____ In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.____20____ People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to makedinner last at least 30 minutes. And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.Downsize the dishes. ____21____ We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tail, skinny glass.A.Slow down while cooking.B.Don’t forget the clock or the radio.C.Open the curtains and turn up the lights.D.Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites.E.Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat.F.They depend on how much time you spend designing.G.You can make your environment work for you instead of against you.三、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

AiPhone 12OutlookFeaturing the same 6.1-inch display size as the iPhone 11 and iPhone XR before it,iPhone 12 is making the transition from an I,CD screen to OLED. With flat aluminum(铝)sides for an overall look, it more closely matches the iPad Pro and iPad Air. Aside from the flat sides, iPhone 12 still largely resembles the iPhone 11. Around back, it has two cameras housed in a glass circle, which makes for a nice contrast with the rest of the smooth back panel. To avoid being broken or cracked when dropped,iPhone12 is covered with what Apple describes as a”ceramic(陶瓷) shield”.CameraThe iPhone 12 has a 12-megapixel f/1.6 main camera the fastest aperture(光圈)in any iPhone yet. The low-light performance has improved, and its advancements in computational photography to maximize detail and dynamic range has also been achieved. The front camera on the iPhone 12 is gaining Night Mode, as well. ProcessoriPhone 12 is powered by the company's new A14 Bionic processor, which is the first smartphone chip built on a 5nm process, leading to improved performance and efficiency. It's claimed that the processor is up to 50 percent faster than the leading chips in Android smartphones.Wireless chargingTo improve wireless charging on the iPhone 12, it contains a"Magsafe "system with built-in magnets to guarantee that the iPhone 12 properly lines up with the Magsafe accessories(配件).1. What is the size of iPhone 12?A. About 6.1-inch as that of iPhone MaxB. The same size as iPad ProC Bigger than that of iPhone 11D. As big as iPhone XR.2. What's the function of the"Magsafe "system?A. To carry out the wired charging of iPhone 12.B. To perfectly match the iPad Pro and iPad Air.C. To make sure the iPhone 12 is right for the MagSafe accessoriesD. To process the information in a more rapid way.3. Which of the followings is TRUE about iPhone 12?A. There are only two cameras placed separately in front and back.B. It is powered by A14 Bionic processor used in Android smartphonesC. All cameras of iPhone 12 have the Night Mode.D. A ceramic shield helps protect against breaking and crackingBMost of us have spent more time at home recently than we ever imagined possible. Maybe you took the opportunity to clean, or maybe you plan to do it tomorrow. These tips can help make your house better for your body and your mind.Think about keeping your home clean the minute you walk in. Take off your shoes at your door. A University of Arizona study found that the average shoe harbors nearly 421, 000 different bacteria, including Escherichia colil and strep. Pesticides, tar,lead,mold, and cleaning chemicals can also get tracked into your home via your shoes.Leave a pair of slippers by the front door.Even if you think you’ve disinfected everything, you might have overlooked some germ magnets(磁铁) One notorious offender the toothbrush holder. Rinse it daily and run it through the dishwasher regularly. Another germ magnet: kitchen sponges. They’re so unhealthful they’ve been banned from restaurant kitchens.Portable ultraviolet(紫外线)lights are a highly boasted germ killer. Hospitals use powerful UVC light to disinfect rooms, as it can kill viruses(possibly even the new coronavirus ). But beware: not all home disinfecting systems use UVC, and some UV lights can quickly burn your skin.Don't forget to clean the air in your home too. The gold standard is a high-efficiency particulate air(HEPA ) filter(过滤器) The Department of Energy requires that they remove 99. 97 percent of pollutants and particles(颗粒)in the air.Portable HEPA filters can clean a single room or the entire house. There are cheaper ways to clean the air-start by cracking a window. Indoor air can have two to five times more pollutants than outdoor air.Many viruses don’ t spread as well in moist air as they do in the cold, dry months.One easy solution for the winter: using a humidifier. The CDC advises against cool-mist humidifiers, which can contain bacteria if they aren’t cleaned regularly.Old-fashioned steam humidifiers are best. But too much humidity can worsen respiratory(呼吸的) problems and encourage the growth of dust mites.4. What should you do before you walk into your house?A. Take off your coatB. Change your shoesC. Clean up the bacteriaD. Dust off the shoe5. What does the CDC think of the cool-mist humidifiers?A. It is a must in winterB. It can worsen respiratory problemsC. It is not as good as the old-fashioned steam humidifiersD. It is an easy solution for dry seasons6. Which is NOT the way introduced in the passage to make the house cleaner?A. Freshen your sheets.B. Wash toothbrush holdersC. Disinfect rooms by UVC lightD. Clean the air with HEPA filters7. Which of the following is probably the best title for the text?A. How to Do CleaningB. Keep Yourself HealthyC. Make Your Mind BoosterD. Get a Healthy HomeCCurtis Whitson knew the water fall was coming. He’d rafted down the Arroyo Seco, a river in central California, before. But this year was different. Heavy snow and spring rains had turned the usually manageable falls into something fierce. And this year, instead of his friends, Whitson's companions were his wife, Krystal Ramirez,and his 13-year-old son, Hunter. As the three of them approached the falls late in the afternoon of the third day of their camping trip, Whitson could tell from the increasing roar of water in the narrow canyon that they were in serious trouble, There was no way they' d be able to rappel down(绕绳下降) the rocks as planned.“The water was just gushing through there with tremendous force, " recalls Whitson.They could wade to the shore, but would anyone find them there? They had no mobile phone service, and they hadn't seen a single person in the past three days.As he considered what to do, Whitson hit on a bit of luck--he heard voice scoming from the other side of the falls. He yelled, but the sound of the rushing water drowned him out.We have to get these people a message, Whitson thought.Then he spotted his gree n Nalgene water bottle. Whitson grabbed it and carved“Help! "on it. Ramirez also reminded him that he had a pen and paper, which she’d brought to play games with, in his backpack. Whitson knew it was a long shot. But he scrawled"We are stuck here at the waterfall. Get help please! "and pushed the note into the bottle, throwing it over the waterfall perfectly.“All right, that's all we can do, "Whitson told Hunter.It took 30 minutes to navigate back upstream to the beach where they made a fire.With no reasonable expectation that their message in a bottle would find its way to anyone, they spelled out SOS in white rocks. As the evening wore on, they placed ahead lamp with a flashing light on a ledge(岩石突出部).Then, just after midnight,they heard a helicopter hovering above them. Whitson ran over to the headlamp and started flashing it at the helicopter. He, Ramirez, and Hunter were waving and hollering when they heard the magic words: "This is Search and Rescue. You have been found.”It was a moment of pure happiness as the three chatted with the officers who had rescued them. Together, they marveled at the unlikelihood of it all. Two men had seen the water bottle in the water. When they picked it up, they noticed the writing on it--“Help!”.A few days after news of the rescue broke, one of the hikers contacted Whitson.That's when he learned the story. There were actually two little girls hiking with the men that day. It was the girls who first spotted the bottle and swam to get it. Whitsonis planning on having a big barbecue to meet the hikers---and thank them.8. Which was NOT the trouble the Whitsons faced?A. The water falls were fierceB. There was no mobile phone serviceC. All of them were not experienced in raftingD. They had to rappel down the rocks9. Which is the order that the Whitsons helped themselves out?①They spelled out SOS on the rocks②Whitson squeezed the note"Get help please"into the bottle③Whitson yelled to the other side of the falls.④Whitson carved"help "on his green bottleA.③④②①B.②③④①C.①④③②D.④③②①10. What does the underlined part in paragraph 7 mean?A. It is a fantastic ideaB. It's a big challengeC. It's a wild attemptD. It's a long explorationI1. Whitson is planning to have a big barbecue__________.A. to celebrate their survivalB. to show gratitude to the hikersC. to have a family unionD. to meet and thank the rescue officersDIf you have spent any time reading papers on teaching strategies in the past few years, you have probably noticed a strong backlash against drill & practice, in favor of“constructivist activities "and"project-based learning”.Memorizing facts, many people argue, is an outdated educational practice, since anyone could just Google a fact on demand or look it up on Wikipedia nowadays. They consider that we should focus all school activities on the acquisition of skills asopposed to knowledge.However, learning by rote (memorization by repetition)is more important than you think. There are many cases in which having knowledge immediately on the tip of your tongue can have great social and professional value. For example, last night ata networking event, when I casually asked a Nigerian entrepreneur how much of his business was conducted in English versus in his native Yoruba, he immediately became more engaged in our conversation. It was as if the simple fact that I knew that Yorubawas spoken in Nigeria won his trust, and therefore built up our relationship.The same goes for professional settings. If I am a pharmaceutical salesman talking to a doctor about a specific digestion drug, and he asks if it has any effect on the process of peristalsis, it will look quite unprofessional if I have to pull out my medical dictionary to look up the word. I need to memorize those facts so that I can access them immediately.Of course, most constructivist educators will argue that on-the-job training and project-based learning are more effective at learning new concepts than rote memorization. The problem is that no single cost-effective constructivist activity will guarantee that you will be exposed to all the concepts you need, or that you will fully remember the facts that you are exposed to. If you actually want to acquire a full range of knowledge about a given topic, the most guaranteed and efficient way Is to study deliberately using the time-honored practice of repetition -specifically confidence-based repetition.12. Which of the following is the most popular teaching method now?A. Drill &c practice.B. Memorizing factsC. Constructivist activitiesD. Confidence-based repetition13. What does the underlined word"backlash"in paragraph I refer to?A. Outdated ideaB Negative reactionC. Educational standardD. Official support.14. Why is the authors communication with a Nigerian entrepreneur mentioned?A. To show the value of knowing about YorubaB. To support his argument for learning by rot eC. To introduce effective communication skills.D. To prove the power of having a wide range of knowledge15. What does the author think about project-based learning?A. It is of limited value in learning new concepts.B. It is an efficient way to learn a new concept.C. It should be combined with a full range of knowledgeD. It will be replaced by the time-honored practice of repetition其次节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最住选项。

We see him making speeches on television and hear him on the radio. We read about him in newspapers, and thousands of us write him letters every day.At one time, Americans did not know so much about their President. Before radio and television, people rarely had a chance to see or hear him. When our first Presidents were elected, few people saw them take office. In fact, many people did not vote at all.Andrew Jackson became our seventh President in 1828. He came from a poor family and worked at many trades. He was a soldier and war hero, a farmer, and a lawyer.Most Americans liked Andrew Jackson very much. They thought he was lively and spirited, and he became their hero. They called him “Old Hickory (北美山胡桃)”.Three times as many people voted in 1828 as had voted four years before. Thousands of people came to Washington to see Old Hickory become President. Men, women and children crowded the muddy streets.56. The people gave Andrew Jackson the name “Old Hickory” because _____.A. they wanted to make fun of himB. his face looked like a hickoryC. he enjoyed eating old hickoriesD. they loved him57. At Andrew Jackson’s time, _____.A. people couldn’t see their President on television.B. people were not able to find out anything about their PresidentC. only a few people could see the President.D. not many people had the right to vote.58. Why was Jackson a hero to many people?A. He had done many things that pleased people.B. The speeches he made were very good.C. In those days people liked hickory wood.D. He killed many enemies in many important battles.59. From the last paragraph we can see that _____.A. Andrew Jackson was a President loved by the American people.B. it was raining hard the day when Jackson took office in Washington.C. Andrew Jackson had been President for twelve years.D. Jackson became President of the United States in 1828 for the second time.BA long time ago, when airplanes were not very big or strong yet, all passengers had to be weighed with their luggage, because planes could not carry more than it was safe to carry. Then when planes became bigger and stronger, only the luggage had to be weighed; and now often, the luggage has to be measured instead of being weighed, because size is more important to airlines than weight. Airplanes are so big and strong now that they can carry almost any weight.But before a passenger can travel by Hawaiian Airlines, he or she still has to be weighed. Once when one fat man was asked by the airlines’ clerk how much weight, he thought for a few seconds and then said to her,“With or without my clothes?”“Well,sir,” the girl answered, “how are you planning to travel?”60. A long time ago the passengers who wanted to take a plane had to be weighed because ____.A. the planes could not carry anything heavy at that time.B. the planes then could not carry both the passengers and their luggageC. the planes then could not carry any weight.D. the planes then were not big or strong enough.61. Later, when the planes became bigger and stronger ____.A. only the passengers had to be measuredB. only the passengers had to be weighed.C. only the luggage had to be measured.D. only the luggage had to be weighed.62. At present, planes are so big and strong that _____.A. neither the passengers nor their luggage has to be weighedB. either the passengers or their luggage has to be measuredC. only the passengers must be measuredD. only the luggage must be weighed.63. Now to take the planes to Hawaii, the passengers still have to be weighed because ____.A. the planes to Hawaii are too heavy.B. the passengers to Hawaii would bring more luggageC. the passengers to Hawaii are often very fat.D. Hawaii is too far and across the sea.CMalls are popular places for Americans to go . Some people spend so much time at malls that they are called “mall rats”. Mall rats shop until they drop in the hundreds of stores under one roof.People like malls for many reasons. They feel safe because malls have police station or private security (安全)guards. Parking is usually free, and the weather inside is always fine. The newest malls have beautiful rest areas with waterfalls and large green trees.The largest mall in the United States is the Mall of America in Minnesota. It covers 4.2 million square feet. It has 350 stores, eight night clubs, and a seven-acre (顷)park! There are parking spaces for 12,750 cars. About 750,000 people shop there every week.The first indoor mall in the United States was built in 1965 in Edina, Minnesota. People loved doing all their shopping in one place. More malls were built all over the country. Now, malls are like town centres where people come to do many things. They shop, of course. They also eat in food courts that have food from all over the world. They see movies at theatres. Some people even get their daily exercise by doing the new sport of “mall walking.” Others go to malls to meet friends.In some malls, people can see a doctor or a dentist (牙医)and even attend church.. In other words, people can do just about everything in malls. Now residents (居民)can actually live in their favourite shopping centre.64. Malls are ____.A. large shopping centres which also act as town centresB. large parks with shops.C. the most popular places Americans go toD. town centres65. Why have malls become so popular?A. Because people can do everything there.B. Because people can do many other things besides shopping for all they need.C. Because people feel safe in malls with police stations around.D.

Malls have to be large places because ____.A. many people drive their cars to go to malls.B. there have to be some restaurants, clinics and theatres.C. many people hope to do sports in the malls.D. they have to meet different needs from so many people.67. Those ___ are called “mall rats”.A. who are busy stealing in the mallB. who have visited the biggest malls.C. who are often found busy shopping in malls.D. who live under the roof of the mall.DThis writer feels that most people have a reason to grumble (抱怨)about their work. Do you agree with him?Although there may be thousands of different kinds of jobs, as I see it there are basically only two kinds of work. One is the sort that in the main is done for its own sake (原因). It has little to do with bosses, or clocks or wages. The othersort is normally done in return for a weekly wage in factories, on building sites or down mines.A research scientist may find his income quite a lot for doing what he would do anyway even if he were rich. Others grumble. But who doesn’t grumble at times?The worst thing of all is having a job where there is little comfort whatever.A factory worker says, “For eight hours a day, five days a week. I’m the exception (例外)to the rule that life can’t exist in a vacuum (真空). Work to me is a great loss, and I cons ider every minute of my time that it takes to be precious” Another man may say, “I have little other interest in the job than getting my money on Friday and getting out of the building as fast as I can.”An office clerk may say, “An office clerk produces nothing and seems completely pointless. How can there be anything but boredom (令人厌烦)in it for him?”An advertising copy-writer, ashamed of earning so much just for writing the ads. says, “Every time I’m asked to write the label for a tin of beans I feel ashamed. And every time my cheque arrives I’m glad I’m not earning as little as the girl who worked the machine that put the beans in the tin.”What are we working for anyway?The short answer is money.Work is a bore!68. Work done for its own sake is ____.A. work that has nothing to do with any other workB. done in return for wages-weekly, daily or hourlyC. unconnected with paymentD. what has to be done.69.
