2021年高三英语模拟试卷及答案
2021年高三英语模拟试卷及答案第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项ANo one knows when the first printing press was invented or who invented it. but the oldest known printed text originated in China during the first millennium (千年) AD.The Diamond Sutra (《金刚经》), a Buddhist book from Dunhuang, China during the Tang Dynasty, is said to be the oldest known printed book.The Diamond Sutrawas created with a method known as block printing (雕版印刷), which used boards of hand-carved wood blocks in reverse.It was said that the moveable type was developed by Bi Sheng. He was fromYingshan,Hubei,China, living from 970 to 1051 AD. His method replaced panels of printing blocks with moveable individual Chinese characters that could be reused. The first moveable Chinese Characters were carved into clay and baked into hard blocks that were then arranged onto an iron frame that was pressed against an iron plate.The earliest mention of Bi Sheng’s printing press is in the bookDream Pool Essays, written in 1086 by Shen Kuo, who noted that his nephews came into possession of Bi Sheng’s typefaces (字体) after his death. Shen Kuo explained that Bi Sheng did not use wood because the texture is inconsistent (不一致的) and absorbs wetness too easily.By the time of the Southern Song Dynasty, which ruled from 1127 to 1279 AD, books had become popular in society and helped create a scholarly class of citizens who had the capabilities to become civil servants. Large printed book collections also became a status symbol for the wealthy class.1.When was Bi Sheng’s printing press first introduced in history?A.After Bi Sheng died and his nephews owned his typefaces.B.When books became popular in the Southern Song Dynasty.C.After the block printing was replaced by the moveable type printing.D.WhenThe Diamond Sutrawas printed into a book.2.What can we infer from the passage?A.Shen Kuo made great contributions to printing.B.The moveable type printing was invented earlier than block printing.C.Printed books were hard to get in the Song Dynasty.D.By the Southern Song Dynasty, books had helped people get to higher social positions.3.Why does the author write this passage?A.To show that Buddhism was popular in the Tang Dynasty.B.To introduce the early history of printing.C.To memorize Bi Sheng, developing the moveable type printing.D.To indicate the advantages of moveable type printing.BYou’re in a crowd of people who are all asking for the same thing. How do you make your voice heard above the rest? Be different. Don’t shout. Lisa, 25, was waiting to board a plane flying fromLondontoAustriafor Christmaswhen the flight was cancelled.“There were about a hundred of us unable to leave,” she says. “Everyone else was shouting at the airport staff. Instead of joining in, I walked up to the man beh ind the ticket desk very quietly and said, ‘This must be so awful for you! I don’t know how you deal with these situations—it’s not even your fault. I could never handle it as well as you are.’ Without my even asking, he found me a seat on another airline with an upgrade to first class. He was happy to do a favor forsomeone who was appreciative instead of unfriendliness.”Flattery (恭维) is an essential element of the sweet-talk strategy. “It’s human psychology that stroking a person’s ego (自我) with a few well-directed praises makes them want to prove you right,” says apsychologist. “Tell someone they’re pretty and they’ll instantly fix their hair; praise their sense of humor and they’ll tell a joke.”You need help and there’s ly no reason that the person w ill want to lend a hand. Allison, 26. a lawyer, realized she’d made a huge mistake on a batch of documents. “The only way I could fix the problem was to get the help of a colleague who I knew didn’t like me,” she said.Allison then went to the woman’s office and explained her problem. “As I was saying to the boss the other day you’re the only person who would know how to handle a situation like this, what would you suggest I do?” “Feeling pumped up (鼓励), she set about helping me and we finished the job on t ime, and she was happy to help.” Allison said.4.Whatwould have happened at the airport according to paragraph 1?A.The departure hall was filled with noise.B.Someone screamed just lo be different.C.The passengers waited on board patiently.D.The airport stuff were rude to the passengers.5.Why did the man put Lisa on another airline?A. He admired Lisa’s beauty.B. He appreciated her attitude.C. He was ready to help others.D. He was blamed for the cancellation.6.What is the third paragraph mainly about?A. The potential benefits of ego.B. The strategy to start small talk.C. The great importance of flattery.D. The value of humor in daily life.7.What can we learn about Allison’s colleague?A.She was a popular lawyer.B.She was always ready to help others.C.She always got praise from Allison.D.She did a great favor for Allison eventually.CWhen I was trying to find a place where to spend my December holidays, I met by chance some cheap flights to Iceland. After checking just a few winter pictures of Iceland, I realized that the country, known as the land of fire and ice, during the cold months of the year could offer me experiences I had never had before.For sure you can’t miss the chance to go to Iceland in winter if your traveling wish list includes at least one of the crazy experiences Iceland can offer. Iceland in the North Atlantic Ocean is a paradise (乐园) for all those who want to see the northern lights, experience cold weather conditions and put themselves in geothermal (地热的) baths while the snow is falling on their head.The best way to move around Iceland is with a rental car. Distances are huge and public transport in winter is not really common out of the major towns. As we wanted to be even more convenient we decided to rent a small camper (野营车). Sleeping and cooking in a camper saved us a lot of driving, money and gave us the chance tobe always in the right place at the right time.There were also no locals and in many cases no tourist facilities (设备). For us, as we slept in a camper, it was easier. But for tourists traveling by normal cars it is necessary to check the opening times ofhotels and restaurants as many of them run just from June to September.It is amazing to experience how the weather is changing in Iceland. However, Icelanders prefer to stay inside their houses. They have even no time to complain about the weather in December. All they care about is Christmas. They love to decorate their houses, sing Christmas songs and eat typical Christmas food.8.Why is Iceland famous as the land of fire and ice?A.Because tourists would like to play with fire on the ice.B.Because it is too dry to easily cause fire to happen.C.Because it is hot inside a house and cold outside.D.Because there exist hot springs and freezing ice.9.What did the author think of the rented camper?A.It was not only practical but also economical.B.It was convenient but cost them more money.C.It provided the best chance to see the new country.D.It was much faster than other public transport.10.What does the last paragraph imply?A.The Icelanders prefer to live with their family.B.The joy of Christmas drives the freezing weather away.C.December is the coldest month of the year.D.The Icelanders are always positive and stay outside.11.What does this passage most probably come from?A. A textbookB. A scientific reportC. A travel magazineD. A news reportDNaomi Cooke was walking with a friend and their dogs through her local park in Burnside, on Tuesday when she heard someone shout to watch out. Cooke turned and hardly had time to react before a flying disc hit her in the face with a "big bang”, leaving her right cheek swollen almost to the size of a golfball.Two men playing disc golf at the course in Jellie Park were about 20 metres fromthe pairwhen one of them threw the disc hard, aiming for a nearby goal.After being hit Cooke immediately went to the emergency department, where two CT scans on her face and cheek found she had escaped any broken bones. "I'm lucky it didn't hit my eye because I think I would have lost it." Cooke said.Cooke often walks her dog at the park and said it was always busy with people playing disc golf, but it was not until after Tuesday that she became concerned about public safety there.There were no signs about the disc golf course in the park, she said, and the area is shared with children and people walking their dogs.“If it had hit one of the kids in the head, it could have killed them.” Cooke did not think she was the only person who had been hit before, and said there would be others who share her concerns.Cooke planned to go to the council, saying it needed to realise how dangerous it was for the space to be shared by everyone and to provide disc golfers with a space where they can play safely. "There should be rules about howit's done, making it safe for everyone.”12.What happened to Cooke on Tuesday?A. She was struck by a golf ball.B. She was hit by a flying disc.C. She was beaten by two men.D. She was frightened by a mad dog.13.What do the underlined words "the pair" in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Cooke and her friend.B. Cooke and her dog.C. The two disc golfers.D. The two CT scans.14.How did Cooke feel about people playing disc golf in the park?A. Acceptable.B. Shocked.C. Angry.D. Worried.15.Why did Cooke plan to go to the council?A. To get the two men in trouble.B. To call for a ban on disc golf.C. To ask for personal protection.D. To call for safer places for disc golf.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。

AWho says inventions are only made by grown-ups and professionals? Over the years, children have also succeeded in making their useful contributions to the world. Here area few inventions that came to life from the minds of young children.Hero HelmetSeven-year-old Samuel Meyer's invention is aimed at stopping people from riding their bikes or skateboards without using a helmet. The Hero Helmet features an inbuilt remote that controls a lock on the wheels which unlocks when the Helmet is being worn by the rider. Samuel says: no helmet, no bike.Robotic EarthwormThe first thought that comes to mind is,why a robotic earthworm? Well,ten-year-old David Cohen had some useful applications in mind. He believed it could be used to find victims after a flood, earthquake or fire.The robot could get into small and dangerous placeswhere search dogs and humans could not go.B.g.A.C.O.N.Fifteen-year-old HannahHerbst's invention, which standsfor Bringing Electricity Access to Countries through Ocean Energy,was inspired by her pen pal wholives in Ethiopia and did not have access to lights.So she came up with B.E.A.C.O.N,which absorbs energy directly from ocean waves. Her invention won the“Discovery Education 3M Young Scientist Challenge”in 2015 and other numerous awards.Portable Wheelchair ControllerAt only eight years old, Amelia Fox created the invention to help lift people in and out of their wheelchair.

Portable Wheelchair Controller.3. Why did Amelia Fox create the invention?A. To give her brother assistance.B. To benefit the earthquake victims.C. To generate electricity effectively.D. To protect bike riders from injuries.BThe only thing better than receiving a book is getting one delivered by a horse. Caitlin Gooch,the founder of Saddle Up and Read(SUAR),literally saddles(跨上马鞍)up ontoone of her family's horses and visits primary schools,libraries and youth groups to encouragestudents to read. The nonprofit in Wendell,North Carolina,also organizes book drives andschool-wide reading competitions.Along-with her.five brothers and sisters,Gooch grew.up on a family farm owned by herfather. Although he worked as a used car salesman,he built a race track on their 87-acrefarm,where he hosted races. Gooch said she grew up around 80 horses and felt blessed tohave grown up with them.In 2017,Gooch,who had been working at daycare centers and youth groups,noticedthat some of the younger children struggled to read. She decided to work with a local library:Any student who checked out more than three books would be entered into a prize draw. Fivenames would be selected out of the.draw and each received a trip to visit the horses on theGooch family farm.It was a hit. Gooch expanded her services by creating her nonprofit,SUAR. WhenGooch shared her organization's story on Twitter,it reached over 70,000 likes in a week, Sheeven got a shout out from Oprah Winfrey,a famous talk show hostess. She's raised over$ 20,000 from supporters across the world.“Now that it's sort of,all eyes on me,there'sdefinitely an opportunity to do something more,”Gooch said.Gooch isn't just encouraging children to read more.She's also showing them thathorseback riders can look like her.Online,she's often referred to as the“Black Cowgirl”.“It feels amazing to be that kind of representation,”Gooch said.4.

What did Gooch do to help kids with reading difficulty?A. Hold reading competitions.B. Work with the youth groups.C. Donate books to a local library.D. Organize visits to the family farm.6.What can be learned about SUAR from Paragraph 4?A. It is well received.B. It has made a big profit.C. It needs further expansion.D. It was criticized by Oprah.7. What can best describe Gooch?A.Honest.B. Inspiring.C. Brave.D. PatientCNot so long ago therapy(治疗)was limited to an hour-long advising session on asofa;now you can access free advice on TikTok in under aminute.Perhaps this new trend is growing because it offers easy bite-size answers to big complex questions.The problem with TikTok,however,is that the videos have to be under 60 seconds, which are about serious mental health illnesses being reduced to brief sentences with quick fixes from sometimes unqualified non-professionals. And with the average age ofTikTokusers between 18 and 24,how helpful is TikTok therapy?“When I first started creating mental health content,I didn't expect anyone to listen,”explains Jane Smith,who runs a private practice in Hampshire.“But it turns out people are hungry for this sort of information.”Although there is a concern about the videos'increasing the risk of self-diagnosis(自诊),Jane thinks otherwise.She compares self-diagnosing a mental health problem to self-diagnosing a common cold,“If you want to find out about the symptoms of a cold, you can look it up online. That's not a risk because you can't do much with that information until you get to the doctor anyway.”Yet despite concerns,the comments on TikTok therapy videos are filled with praises.Rachel,23,says she finds them very relatable:“If yousee a video discussing anxiety,it can you help you acknowledge and discuss topics you might not feel sate to do in other places. It makes me feel less alone.”We've seen some great mental health content on Tik1ok. However,it s important to ask remember that not all the information you find online will be reliable and it can be useful toask yourself some questions including who is sharing it and why.8. Why is TikTok therapy getting popular?A. It sells at a low price.B.It aims at younger users.C. It provides brief solutions.D. It is offered by professionals.9.What does Janethink of TikTok videos?A.They may cause some potential risks.B.They are better than going to doctors.C. They are of much help to people in need.D. They show symptoms of disease in detail.10.What does the underlined word"them"in Paragraph 4 probably refer to?A. Concerns.B. Videos.C. CommentsD. Praises.11. What may the author agree?A. TikTok will replace hospitals in the future.B.It is quite easy to find reliable medical advice.C. Everyone can create his own TikTok videos.D. We should be careful about online information.DFace masks and protective suits can save lives. But what happens after people are done using them? Binish Desai,the founder of Eco-Eclectic Technologies from Western India,saw the impact brought by the rising use and demand for single-use masks and kits due to the coronations pandemic (冠状病毒流行病),so he created Brick 2.0 to prevent tons of single-use Personal Protective Equipment(PPE)from being waste and ending up in landfills or water streams.Although PPE is essential for medical use,it is extremely necessary to assess new alternativesand to raise awareness regarding its proper use and disposal(处理).A study published by the American Chemical Society suggests that 129 billion face masks are used monthly during the coronations pandemic,which causes great environmental pollution.In India alone,over 18,000 British tons of coronations-related biomedical waste was generated in just four months between June and September. The waste would take hundreds of years break down,according to the magazine Waste Advantage.Brick 2.0 is a new version of the brick made from industrial waste,now also including used face masks and protective suits. The process starts with the collection of PPE waste through garbage cans placed in small shops and apartment buildings,with easy access for people to throw away their used items.Once in the factory,the collections are kept for 72 hours for safety reasons.Then they are cleaned and torn into pieces before being mixed with other waste.Finally,the material is shaped,and once dry,each brick is ready to use.It is three times stronger than conventional bricks at twice the size and half the price.In a complex circumstance like the one we are living in these days,this solution is not only relatively easy to operate,but also very achievable in the short term,which can really help overcome today's global environmental challenges.12.Why did Desai create Brick 2.0?A. To recycle the PPE waste.B. To reduce production cost.C. To protect water recourse.D. To prevent serious disease.13.What do the figures in Paragraph 2 indicate?A. The study lacks sufficient evidence.B. The pandemic is difficult to control.C. The demand for face masks is in decline.D. The environment is facing severe challenges.14.What is mainly discussed about Brick2.0in Paragraph3?A. Its function.B. Its advantage.C. Its main characteristic.D. Its production process.15. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Innovation never endsB. Environmental issues countC. Transform waste into treasureD. Defend your life with face masks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。

Just ask Dana Richardson, who is a professional mermaid in Hawaii!“As a child, I always felt very connected to the ocean and played mermaids in the water,” says Dana.“ My love of the ocean took me to different types of work such as a lifeguard, swiminstructor, boat crew member, underwater photographer, boat captain and surfer. I just decidedto take it to the next level and grow a tail.”Dana doesn’t mean literally(照字面地). In 2008 she began making mermaid tails frommaterials including shiny fabric(织物)that she wears while free-diving in the waters around Kona, Hawaii. Free-diving means diving without any protective equipment. It requires you to hold yourbreath while swimming deep underwater. As she dives in, Dana not only like a mermaid; sheexperiences what it is like to swim like one too.The waters around Dana’s home in Kona are filled with wildlife, including dolphins andwhales. Kona is by a sheltered sea where the waters are calm for swimming. For ten years Danahas been swimming with the creatures of Kona. Some of them have even learned to recognizeher.Dana knows how to swim with sea life because she is a trained marine(海洋的)naturalist.She understands the behavior of sea life and knows how to safely interact with it. Every morningwhen she swims with sea life she gets to experience her other “home”.“Th e ocean beneath thedepths really is another world. Watching how the world works so gracefully in the circle of lifeunderwater is a beautiful thing.”For Dana Richardson being a mermaid just makes sense.“I always felt more comfortableunderwater than on land,” she says.Would you like to follow your dream, even if it seems impossible? Dana Richardson remindseveryone, “One person can truly make a difference. By following your heart and offering theworld your unique gifts, you will inspire others to do so. The world needs you!”4. What has been influencing Dana’s work experience most?A.Her hobby B.Her family C.Her science teacher D.Her swim instructor5. Why does Dana make mermaid tails?A.She needs them to protect her. B.She wants to swim like a mermaid.C.She needs to make money with them. D.She wants to take photos of mermaids.6. Being a marine naturalist helps Dana______.A.get along well with sea life B.discover her outstanding giftsC.appreciate the beauty of other people D.feel comfortable both underwater and on land7. Dana encourages people to__________.A.help those in need B.love marine animalsC.try to realize their dreams D.protect the marine environmentCHow words came into being is unknown. All we assume(推测) is that some early men invented certain sounds, in one way or another, to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things,so that they could talk with each other. Later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be put together to show those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, are called words.The power of words, then, lies in their associations — the things they bring up to our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words bring back to us the happy and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which have powerful effects on our minds and feelings. This clever use of words is what we call literary style(文体). Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can express his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men to tears.We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them correctly, or they will make our speech silly and common.8.We learn from the text that language might have begun with .A.expressions B.actions C.signs D.sounds9.What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2?A.The learning of new words.B.The importance of old words.C.The relation of human experience with words.D.The gradual change and development of words.10.In the last paragraph,what does the author suggest that we should do?A.Use words skillfully.B.Make musical speeches.C.Learn poems by heart.D.Associate with listeners.DWhether in the home or the workplace, social robots are going to become a lot more common in the next few years. Social robots are about to bring technology to the everyday world in a more humanized way, said Cynthia Breazeal, chief scientist at the robot company Jibo.While household robots today do the normal housework, social robots will be much more like companions(同伴) than mere tools. For example, these robots will be able to distinguish when someone is happy or sad. This allows them to respond more appropriately to the user.The Jibo robot, arranged to ship later this year, is designed to be a personalized assistant. You can talk to the robot, ask it questions, and make requests for it to perform different tasks. The robot doesn’t just deliver gen eral answers to questions; it responds based on what it learns about each individual in the household. It can do things such as reminding an elderly family member to take medicine or taking family photos.Social robots are not just finding their way into the home. They have potential applications in everything from education to health care and are already finding their way into some of these spaces.Fellow Robots is one company bringing social robots to the market. The company’s “Oshbot” robot is built to a ssist customers in a store, which can help the customers find items and help guide them to the product’s location in the store. It can also speak different languages and make recommendations for different items based on what the customer is shopping for.The more interaction the robot has with humans, the more it learns. But Oshbot, like other social robots, is not intended to replace workers, but to work alongside other employees. “We have technologies to train social robots to do things not for us, but wi th us,” said Breazeal.11. How are social robots different from household robots?A. They are more like humans.B. They can control their emotions.C. They do the normal housework.D. They respond to users more slowly.12. What can a Jibo robot do according to Paragraph 3?A. Communicate with you and perform operations.B. Obey your orders and remind you to take medicine.C. Answer your questions and make requests.D. Take your family pictures and deliver milk.13. What can Oshbot work as?A. A language teacher.B. A tour guide.C. A private nurse.D. A shop assistant.14. We can learn from the last paragraph that social robots will ________.A. improve technologiesB. train employeesC. be our workmatesD. take the place of workers15.What does the passage mainly present?A. An introduction to social robots.B. Marketing strategies for social robots.C. A new design idea of household robots.D. Information on household robots.七选五(共5小题:每小题2分,满分10分)Money MattersParents should help their children understand money.16So you may start talking about money when your child shows an interest in buying things,candy or toys,for example.1.The basic function of moneyBegin explaining the basic function of money by showing how people trade money for goods or services.It is important to show your child how money is traded for the things he wants to have.If he wants to have a toy,give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier(收银员).17 When your child grows a bit older and understands the basic function of money,you can start explaining more complex ways of using money.2.Money lessonsApproach money lessons with openness and honesty.18 If you must say no to a child’s request to spend money,explain,"You have enough toy trucks for now."

student,Caroline Crouchley,13,of Garden City is a finalist in the20193M Young Scientist Challenge.The annual competition tasks students in grades fifth to eighth with making a video tracing a unique solution to an everyday problem.Crouchley is one of10finalists chosen out of thousandsof students this year.After watching her brother enter the competition several years ago,Crouchley,who has always loved science, couldn’twait for her turn.In May,she submitted a two-minute video about her idea to the organizer to createbelieve it. growing methods of public transportation.When she found out she was afinalist in June,she couldn’tproject was inspired by the construction she seesevery day outside her window in Garden City,as Crouchley’swell as the Long Island Railroad’srecent expansion.She noticed transportation causespollution in her community, and she was determined to find a way to stop it.Crouchley said.In “Maybe o ne day,we can have better technology and find a way to help the environment,”her video,Crouchley explains that the use of fossil fuels let out by public transportation is a major cause of environmental problems.She believes technology that reducesthe need for a diesel(柴油)engine or an electric motor is the solution.To show her idea in action,she designed a new type of train.Crouchley created a computerized system design model for her train using an engineering program called Autodesk Inventor.She brought the train to life using a3D printer,magnets(磁铁)and a solar-powered air compressor(压缩机).Crouchley said it took a long time to develop her ideas

victims from a burning building,a chemical spill,or any disaster that is inaccessible to human responders could one day be a task for adaptable robots.Imagine,for instance,rescue-robots rising up on two legs can bound through rubble(碎石),push aside aheavy obstacle,or break through a locked door.Engineers are improving the design of four-legged robots and their ability to run,jump and even do back leaps. But getting two-legged,human-like robots to use force or push against something without falling has been a lion in the way.Now engineers at MIT and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have developed a method to controlessential step toward enabling a human-like to carry out high-balance in a two-legged,tele-operated robot—anrobot,physically resembling a machined body and two legs,is impact tasks in challenging environments.The team’scontrolled remotely by a human operator wearing a vest that sendsinformation about the human’smotion and ground reaction forces to the robot.Through the vest,the human operator can direct and experience the robot’smovements.If the robot is starting to tip over,the human feels the same pull on the vest and can adjust in a way to rebalance both himself and the robot.In experiments with the robot to test this new“balance feedback”approach,the researcherswere able tobalance as it jumped and walked in sync(同步)with its human operator.remotely maintain the robot’scan feel how the dynamics(力)of the backpack move around like running with a heavy backpack—you“It’ssays Joao Ramos,who developed the approach as an MIT Postdoctor.“Now if you,and you can make up properly,”you want to open a heavy door,the human can command the robot to throw its body at the door and push it open, without losing balance.”the function of the first paragraph?12.What’sA.Advertise a new robot.B.Show the appearanceof the robot.C.Tell the principle of the two-legged robot.D.Introduce the purpose of the two-legged robot.13.What is the trouble with human-like robots?hard for them to do back leaps.A.It’shard for them to keep their balance.B.It’spush against anything hard.C.They can’tD.They often fall down when meeting the lions.14.What is special about the robot researchat MIT?actions can be felt by the human operator.A.The tested robot’sB.The robot is tested in challenging environments.C.The data on the tested robot is sent by phones.D.The tested robot has a voice-control system.15.Which is the best title for the text?A.The Strength of Two-legged RobotB.The Development History of RobotC.A New Four-legged Rescuing RobotD.New Research on Two-legged Robot第二节(共5小题;每小题 2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
