AUnbelievable Stories of Animals Acting Just Like Humans◆Horses are picky eatersHorses have an even better sense of smell than humans do. When horses raise their noses and open their nostrils(鼻孔) , their nervous system allows them to sense smells we can’t sense. This might explain why they refuse dirty water and carefully move around meadows, eating only the tastiest grasses, experts say.◆Whale says thanksIn 2011, a whale expert spotted a humpback whale trapped in a fishing net and spent an hour freeing it. Afterward, in an hour-long display of thanks, the whale swam near their boat and leaped into the air about 40 times.◆Pandas like to be naughtyIs there anything more lovely than a baby panda, except maybe a human baby? In fact, baby pandas sometimes behave like human babies. They sleep in the same positions and value their thumbs. Pandas are shy by nature for its shy behaviors such as covering its face with a paw of ducking its head when confronted by a stranger.◆A cat honors its ownerPaper towels, and a plastic cup are just a few of the gifts that Toldo, a devoted three-year-old gray-and-white cat, has placed on his former owner Iozzelli Renzo’s grave every day since the man died in September 2011. Renzo adopted Toldo from a shelter when the cat was three months old, and the two formed an inseparable bond. After Renzo passed away,Toldo followed the coffin to the cemetery, and now "stands guard" at the grave for hours ata time.21. What can horses do to pick delicious grasses?A. Feel them.B. Taste them.C. Smell them.D. Observe them.22. What do the whale and the cat have in common according to the passage?A. They are clever.B. They have a grateful heart.C. They are active and lovely.D. They have a good sense of smell.23. Which of the following acts like a human baby according to the passage?A. The whale.B. The cat.C. The horse.D. The panda.BEdward Latter, five, thought his dog Morse was gone for ever after cruel thieves took him away when the dog escaped from his home.The 10-month-old dog had been missing since December and the broken-hearted boy even wrote a heartbreaking letter to Santa and posted it to Lapland asking for his pal back for Christmas.A £10,000 reward was offered by millionaire Simon Cowell after he read about the horrific theft. Cowell said: “It’s heartbreaking to see a little boy’s Christmas ruined. Dogs are so important to many of us. We just hope it helps lead to the safe return of Morse.”His parents, Amanda Hopkins and Richard Latter, had given up hope of ever seeing their pet again, until they got a call on Friday night. A couple 20 miles away from their home in Marden, Kent, had found a muddy dog walking through their street and thought it could be missing Morse. They brought the Morse in, washed him, and then called Mr Latter who was unsure until he was sent a photo, and then drove the family to the village of Meopham.The theatre carpenter, 40, said: “Amanda and I were still quite sceptical, but Edward saw him and recognised him straight away. He was absolutely over the moon. He said: ‘I can’t believe it, I have my best friend back. It’s too late for Christmas but this is the best presentever.’We were still unsure if it was him though—as he wasn’t responding to his name or coming to us.”“We spent about an hour and half over there and we still were not sure, so we took him home to get his chip scanned. It was only when we took him to the vets on Saturday morning and got his chip scanned that we found out for sure. We instantly broke down in tears. We were just hugging each other, hugging Edward and hugging the dog.”Added Richard.The family who found missing Morse said they hadn’t yet heard from Simon Cowell about the £10,000 reward but were happy to get him home.24. Why did Edward Latter write to Santa?A. He wanted Santa to punish the cruel thieves.B. He wished Santa could bring Morse back for Christmas.C. He hoped Santa would reward the person finding his dog.D. He wished he could reunite with his parents for Christmas.25. What does the underlined phrase “over the moon”in Paragraph 5 mean?A. On the move.B. Outer space.C. In high spirits.D. Beyond description.26. Why did Richard Latter have the dog’s chip scanned?A. To identify the dog.B. To ensure the dog’s health.C. To remind Edward Latter to hug the dog.D. To get the reward millionaire Cowell had promised.27. What can we learn from the text?A. Edward Latter has got his lost Morse back.B. Simon Cowell was accused of breaking his promise.C. Santa brought Morse back for Edward Latter after Christmas.D. The couple has received a reward of £10,000 from Mr Latter.CFor students, college is a series of disconnected experiences: the classroom, the dorm, the athletic field, and the internship(实习岗位). Yet the employers tell me what gets college students hired is the ability to translate what they learned in one place (the classroom, for example) to another that is far different from where they originally learned a concept (aproject on an internship).Educators call this “transfer learning”—the ability to summarize key principles and apply them in many different places, which becomes more important as the skills needed to keep up in any job and occupation continue to change in the future. Our ability to drive almost any car on the market without reading its manual(手册) is an example of knowledge transfer.The concept sounds simple enough. But today’s students, faced with the constant pressure to prepare for standardized tests, rarely have the chance to learn through problem-solving or to be involved in projects that improve skills that can be used in various settings.In response to demands from students, parents and employers, colleges and universities are adding hands-on experiences to the undergraduate curriculum.Arizona State University, where I’m a professor of practice, is testing a curriculum across a dozen majors in which students learn nearly half of the subject matter through group projects. Engineering students might build a robot and learn the key principles of mechanics and electronics during the project. The hope is that students will be more involved if theories from the classroom are immediately applied in the outside world instead of years after students graduate.What’s the problem with the hands-on learning experiences being added by colleges to the undergraduate curriculum? They’re often not accompanied by the guidance that students need to help them transfer what they learn. So students become adepts skilled in job interviews at describing what they did during a project, but they have difficulty talking about what they learned and how they can apply that to where they want to work.28. Why is the ability to drive mentioned in Paragraph 2?A. To show that everything is changing.B. To prove that driving ability is important.C. To stress the importance of practical skills.D. To explain the meaning of transfer learning.29. What prevents students from getting the ability to transfer knowledge?A. Various school projects.B. Too much stress from tests.C. Their lack of theory knowledge.D. Their unwillingness to solve problems.30. Which may arouse students’interest in school learning according to the author?A. Seeing what they have learned is applied.B. Teachers changing the way lectures are given.C. Focusing on the key principles of every subject.D. Teachers explaining theories in an interesting way.31. What does the author think of the hands-on learning experiences in colleges?A. They are effective.B. They are unnecessary.C. They should be improved.D. They cost a lot of time.DAnecdotal evidence has long held that creativity in artists and writers can be associated with living in foreign parts. Rudyard Kipling, Pablo Picasso, Ernest Hemingway, Paul Gauguin, Samuel Beckett and others spent years living abroad. Now a pair of psychologist has proven that there is indeed a link.As they report in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, William Maddux of INSEAD, a business school in Fontainebleau, France, and Adam Galinsky, of the Kellogg School of Management in Chicago, presented 155 American business students and 55 foreign ones studying in America with a test used by psychologists as a measure of creativity. Given a candle, some matches and a box of drawing pins, the students were asked to attach the candle to a cardboard wall so that no wax would drip on the floor when the candle was lit. (The solution is to use the box as a candleholder and fix it to the wall with the pin.) They found 60% of the students who were either living abroad or had spent some time doing so, solved the problem, whereas only 42% of those who had not lived abroad did so.A follow-up study with 72 Americans and 36 foreigners explored their creative negotiating skills. Pairs of students were asked to play the role of seller of a petrol station who then needed to get a job and a buyer who would need to hire staff to run the business. The two were likely to reach a deadlock because the buyer had been told he could not afford what the seller was told was his minimum price. Nevertheless, when both negotiators had lived abroad 70% struck a deal in which the seller was offered a management job at the petrol station in return for a lower asking price. When neither of the negotiators had lived abroad, none was able to reach a deal.Merely travelling abroad, however, was not enough. You do have to live there. Packingyour beach towel and suntan lotion will not, by itself make you Hemingway.32. What is the purpose of mentioning the famous names in the opening paragraph?A. To show the relationship between creativity and living abroad.B. To indicate the link between artistic creation and life experience.C. To emphasize how great these artists are.D. To impress the importance of creativity.33. What can be inferred from the text?A. William Maddux and Adam Galinsky have carefully designed the test.B. Negotiators who had lived abroad are more flexible in negotiating.C. American business students are less creative than those oversea students.D. One’s creativity is associated with the length one has spent abroad.34. What does the author mean in the last sentence of paragraph 4?A. There exist sharp differences between travelling and living abroad.B. You shouldn’t lie on the beach when travelling.C. Only real experience of living abroad can help drive creativity.D. Living abroad is more meaningful than just travelling abroad.35. Where is the text most likely from?A. A diary.B. A magazine.C. A novel. A. guidebook.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AMaster painter Zhang Daqian (1899-1983) was well known for having a large number of friends and students. Among them, painter Li Qiujun was special.They got to know each other through Li's elder brother, who was one of Zhang's best friends.They admired each other's artistic talent and became confidants, which resulted in a romantic relationship.In 1948, Zhang produced Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape, a mountain-and-water ink painting featuring gongbi (meticulous brushwork), as a gift for Li's 50th birthday.A year later, Zhang permanently departed from the mainl and, and traveled and exhibited around the world before settling down in Taipei in 1976.After leaving the mainland, he often said that he missed Li, who died in Shanghai in 1973.Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape will be auctioned in Hong Kong on Oct 4.The painting not only marks a friendship between the two painters, but it deserves special attention because it shows Zhang at the top of his game as he sought to master the mountain-and-water style, according to C.K. Cheung, head of Sotheby's Chinese painting department.Sotheby's will auction the work at its major autumn sale, which runs from Oct 1 to 5.Cheung says the painting's composition and Zhang's attention todetails reflect his incorporation of traditional touches, especially from Song Dynasty (960-1279) paintings, while also developing his own style.21. Th e underlined word “confidants” in paragraph 3 probably means ____.A. enemiesB. collegesC. friendsD. painters22. How old was Li Qiujun when she died?A. 50B. 75C. 78D. 8423. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape was originally a gift for Li's 50th birthday.B. Zhang Daqian permanently departed from the mainland in 1949.C. Sotheby's will auction Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape in Hong Kong.D. Li Qiujun's elder brother was also one of ZhangDaqian's students. BA new international study shows that some people's biological clock plays a powerful role for their life expectancy, regardless of lifestyle choices.Published in the latest issue of Aging on Wednesday, the study has found the most definitive evidence to explain why some people keep healthy lifestyle but die younger than others.Geneticist Steve Horvath from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), led a team of 65 scientists around the world to record age-related changes to human DNA, analyse blood samples collected from 13,000 people and estimate their lifespan.A higher biological age, regardless of actual age, consistently predicts an earlier death, the study says."You get people who are vegan, sleep 10 hours a day, have a low-stress job, and still end up dying young," Horvath said in a statement. "We have shown some people have a faster innate aging rate."The findings discovered that 5 percent of the population ages at a faster biological rate, which translated to a roughly 50 percent higher than average risk of death at any age."The great hope is that we find anti-aging interventions that would slow your innate aging rate," Horvath said, adding that "this is an important milestone to realizing this dream."24.Some people keep healthy lifestyle but die younger than others because ______.A. their biological clock is not powerful enoughB. the most definitive evidence has been foundC. they have a higher actual age than othersD. they ages at a relatively faster biological rate25.How was the study conducted?A. By collecting and analyzing dataB. By interviewing lots of peopleC. By researching previous studiesD. By studying different lifestyles26.According to the study, it can be inferred that ______.A. people who keep healthy lifestyle tend to live longerB. people’s lifespan can be predicted by their ageC. 5 percent of people are believed to have a faster innate aging rateD. anti-aging interventions have proved to slow the innate aging rate27.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. We all should keep healthy lifestyleB. Geneticist finds anti-aging interventionsC. Biological clock predicts life expectancyD. Horvath builds an important milestoneCAs a Chinese saying goes, “Taste is actually a memory of childhood”. Local specialty food may not be popular among all people, but it offers outsiders a glimpse of local culture and history.Gongcheng “oil tea” is such a kind of food that would be considered “weird” by many first-time visitors to the remote county in the north of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Many people dislike its bitter and astringent(涩的) flavor when they take a sip.“It felt like drinking Chinese herbal medicine. I never expected that I would gradually accept it afterwards, and even become addicted to it,” said a traveler surnamed Zhang who comes from Shijiazhuang in northern China’s Hebei province.Langshan village is said to be the birthplace of Gongcheng “oil tea” whose ideal ingredients are green tea and fermented tea. The village has preserved well its buildings and roads dating back to late Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), as well as its traditional way of making the special tea.Lin Fengyou, 60, introduced the cooking process. She looks younger than her age, and attributes this to the benefits of drinking “oil tea” throughout the year.The first procedure is to use a wooden hammer to pound the tea while heating it in an iron pot, and then add edible oil and boiled water afterwards. She filters off the solid residues(余渣), and pours the glue-like green tea soup into bowls. Then, she adds salt, caraway seed, green onion, dried rice, fried groundnuts, sliced taro and fried beans.The taste of the “oil tea” is a mixture of the distinctive flavors of all its ingredients. Local people usually eat it together withglutinous rice(糯米) balls, rice dumplings and glutinous rice cake.The villagers consume “oil tea” three times a day. The tea soup is a healthy and refreshing food. “The tea soup to us is coffee to Westerners”, said Lin. “But it is tastier.”28.Many first-time visitors may find “oil tea” ______ when taking a sip.A. popularB. strangeC. addictedD. beneficial29.What can we learn about Lin Fengyou according to the passage?A. She never expected that she would gradually accept “oil tea”.B. She is one of the reasons why the special tea has been preserved.C. She thinks drinking “oil tea” throughout the year makes her look younger.D. She drinks “oil tea” three times every day and considers coffee tastier.30.Which is the correct order of cooking “oil tea” according to Lin Fengyou?a. pour the glue-like green tea soup into bowlsb. heat the tea in an iron pot and pound the teac. add salt, caraway seed, green onion, dried rice, etcd. add edible oil and boiled watere. filter off the solid residues A. bdeac B. dbace C. acebdD. beadc31.Which column is this passage probably taken from?A. Culture & EducationB. EntertainmentC. HealthD. TravelDChina's largest search engine Baidu has said it will make its latest artificial intelligence (AI) technology accessible to developers and businesses as part of the company's latest move into AI, big data and cloud computing.AI solution "Tianzhi" was launched at a cloud-computing summit held in Beijing Wednesday. It includes services in three fields: sensing technology, such as image and voice processing, machine learning, and deep learning, an advanced form of machine learning, said Zhang Yaqin, CEO of the Nasdaq-listed company, at the summit.Developers can access facial or voice recognition, algorithms(演算法) for data analysis and projections, and deep learning applications, Zhang said, adding that the technology could help users innovate in their sectors."With more devices connected to the cloud, enterprises will use cloud computing and AI more frequently," said Wu Hequan, an academician at the Chinese Academy of Engineering, "Open AI technology can play abigger role."The company also revealed a plan to invest 10 billion yuan (1.45 billion U.S. dollars) in cloud computing in the next five years and establish an innovation center, which will serve 10 million enterprises.32.What is the main idea of paragraph one?A.Baidu will further develop its latest AI technology.B.Baidu has attracted developers’ and businesses’ attention.ers will be able to access Baidu’s latest AI technology.D.A company will move to AI, big data and cloud computing.33.“Tianzhi” includes services in the following fields EXCEPT_____.A.sensing technologyB.voice processingC.machine learningD.deep learning34.What does the underlined sentence in paragraph four probably mean?A.It’s important for AI technology to be open.B.AI technology is more important than the cloud.C.People aren’t aware of the importance of AI technology.D.Enterprises will hardly benefit from open AI technology.35.What is Baidu’s next move according to the last paragraph?A.Reveal a plan to invest in cloud computing.B.Invest 10 billion yuan to serve enterprises.C.Get invested from enterprises in the next five years.D.Invest in computing and build an innovation center.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

高三英语模拟试题二 试题(共21页)

2021届高三英语模拟(mónǐ)试题二〔试卷满分是:120分〕第一局部阅读理解〔一共两节,满分是50分〕第一节〔一共15小题;每一小题2.5分,满分是37.5分〕阅读以下短文,从每一小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项里面选出最正确选项。

AMany college students want to look for seasonal, short-term orpart-time jobs to get extra cash, to stay busy or to get working experience.LifeguardThe job is a great opportunity to build your fitness, keep people safe and be outdoors to enjoy some fun on the beach in the sun. The average hourly wage for lifeguards is $ 9.31, but those with certifications or previous experience may be able to earn a bit more. Nanny (保姆)Students can find plenty of positions as parents scramble (争抢) to arrange activities and find care for their children. Students whoenjoy spending time with kids, staying active and being outdoors can spend their leisure time making money without even feeling likethey’re working. Nannies make $ 14.56 per hour.Camp ConsultantStudents who enjoy spending their time with children, being a leader and monitoring fun outdoor activities are perfect for camp consultant positions. The average hourly wage for camp consultants is $9.28, but those with many years’ experience or specific academic backgrounds may be able to earn more.Food ServerAlthough it may not seem like the most attractive way to spend a weekend, working as wait staff allows students to build up their social skills, stay active, enjoy free meals at work and posily educate themselves about different cuisines. However, food servers need to be on their feet for hours at a time and must be able tomulti-task like professionals, so take this into account before submitting an application. The average salary is $ 9.00 hourly, but trips can raise that number.1. Who are the two jobs nanny and camp consultant most fit for?A. Students who want to develop their social skills.B. Students who love staying with children.C. Students who love traveling.D. Students who love camping.2. What should you take into consideration before applying to be a food server?A. The way of cooking.B. The food you can enjoy.C. Long standing time at work.D. Skill in getting tips from customers.3. What job can you do if you’re good at swimming?A. A lifeguard.B. A nanny.C. A camp consultant.D. A food server.BConnie Monroe clicks a button, flicks her wrist and watches as her neighborhood floods. The shorelines are first to go. Then, the baseball fields at Fleming Park. By the time seawater reaches the senior center, it has flooded streets and over a dozen brick homes. Monroe moves her head up and down, side to side, taking in the simulated (仿真(fǎnɡ zhēn)的) view. This is what could happen to Turner Station, a historic African American community southeast of Baltimore, as sea levels rise.Climate change presents many challenges to coastal communities and to those trying to prepare for its impacts, but one of the most basic is also one of the most vexing: How do you show people and convince them of a possible future?Communicating the realness and immediacy of the climate threat is hugely important to climate researchers and those aiming to lessen its causes. But it's also the most important to communities faced with coming changes that are already unavoidable. These projects needpublic support and input. That's why Monroe and other residents (居民(jūmín)) are being dire cted to sit in metal chairs, put on virtual reality headsets and watch their homes flood.Turner Station, a community which gets flooded easily, is trying to prepare. It has partnered with the Port of Baltimore, a few nonprofits and a local landscape architecture firm to adopt a range of tools and ways to communicate climate change to the public, because every person is different and every place is different.The virtual reality program is only the most recent, and perhaps the most effective step. Virtual reality is an immersive experience that can trick the human brain into thinking it's real. But tricking people is not the goal of the sea level rise simulation being used at Turner Station, says Juiano Calil, one of the program's developers. “The goal,〞 he says, “is to start a conversation and help folks visualize the impacts of climate change and the solutions, and also discuss the trade-offs between them.〞4. Who is Monroe?A. A coastal community citizen.B. A climate researcher.C. An architect.D. AVR program developer.5. What does the underlined word “vexing〞 mean in paragraph 2?A. Bothersome.B. Dramatic.C. Original.D. Convincing.6. Why is VR technology employed here?A. It can cut down the risks of climate change.B. It can show severe results of climate change.C. It can introduce technology to the residents.D. It can predict the climate change accurately.7. What is the purpose of the program?A. To trick more people to believe.B. To win the residents’cooperation.C. To advocate the application of VR.D. To inform the residents of the solutions.CBefore the end of the year, employees at Ubiquitous Energy, a company in Redwood City, Calif, will gather in a window-lined conference room to stare toward the future. That’s becau se their new glass windows will offer more than an amazing view of the North California landscape. They will also be able to power the company’s lights, computers and air conditioners.Several years in the making, Ubiquitous’ energy-producing glass is a remarkable technological achievement. Its power lies in the layersof organic polymers (聚合物) between sheets of glass. As light enters the window,the flow of electrons between the polymer layers creates an electric current, which is then collected by tiny wires in the glass.“It’s sort of like a transparent computer display run in reverse (反过来),〞 says Veeral Hardev, director of business development at Ubiquitous Energy. “Instead of electricity being shuttled todifferent points in a display to light them up, light is producing electricity to be shuttled out of different points in the window.〞Right now the windows produce about a third as much electricity from a given amount of sunlight as the typical solar cells used inroof panels (板).These windows, about half as transparent as ordinary glass, don’t work as well as transparent ones. Hardev says the company is likely to improve the transparency significantly. As forthe lower output of electricity, he notes that windows can cover a much greater surface area than a roof, so numerous windows will produce a surprisingly larger amount of electricity than the production from a rooftop full of higher-efficiency solar panels. “You could do both.〞says Hardev. “But you’ll get more from the windows. The biggest challenge, he adds, is increasing the windows from less than two square feet currently to about 50 square feet.〞8. What makes the new glass windows special?A. They can offer an amazing view.B. They are controlled by computers.C. They can power the conference room.D. They can help stare toward the future.9. What is Hardev trying to explain in Paragraph 3?A. The source of light.B. The significance of different points.C. The similarity of computer and glass.D. The working principle of energy-producing glass.10. What can affect power production according to the passage?A. The transparency of the glass.B. The quality of the rooftop.C. The height of the solar panels.D. The thickness of the glass.11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Windows: A New Challenge of TechnologyB. Windows: No Longer Just for Letting in the LightC. Power: A Pressing Problem in the Near FutureD. Power: Not Enough from Rooftop Solar PanelsDIf you’ve spent any amount of time boati ng, fishing, or bird-watching at lakes and rivers, you have most likely seen fishes jumping out of the water. I have seen it many times. Certainly, fishes will exit water in desperate attempts to escape enemies. Dolphins take advantage of the behavior, forming a circle and catching the frightened fishes in midair. But just as we may run fast from fun or from fear, different emotions might motivate fishes to jump.Mobula rays〔蝸鲼〕aren’t motivated by fear when they throw their impressive bodies—up to a seventeen-foot wingspan (the distance from the end of one wing to the end of the other) and a ton in weight—skyward in leap〔跳跃(tiàoyuè)〕of up to ten feet. They do it in schools〔鱼群〕of hundreds. They usually land on their bellies, but sometimes they land on their backs. Some scientists think it might be a way of removing parasites〔寄生虫〕. But I think that the rays are enjoying themselves.In the clear waters of Florida’s Chassahowitzka National Wildlife Refuge, I watched several schools of fifty or more mullets〔鲻鱼〕moving in beautiful formation. Their well-built bodies were most evident when they leaped from the water. Most of the time I saw one or two leaps by a fish, but one made a series of seven. They usually landon their sides. Each jump was about a foot clear of the water and two to three feet in length.Nobody knows for sure why the fish leaps. One idea is that they do it to take in oxygen. The idea is supported by the fact that mullets leap more when the water is lower in oxygen, but is challenged by the likelihood that jumping costs more energy than is gained by breathing air. It is hard to imagine they will feel any fresher when back in water.Might these fishes also be leaping for fun? There is some new evidence. Gordon M. Burghardt recently published accounts of a dozen types of fishes leaping repeatedly, sometimes over floating objects—sticks, plants, sunning turtle—for no clear reason other than entertainment.12. What can we say about the dolphins in Paragraph 1?A. They have great escaping skills.B. They are easily frightened.C. They are very clever.D. They love jumping.13. What do the ray and the mullet have in common when jumping?A. Both do it in groups.B. Both land on their bellies.C. Both jump many feet out of water.D. Both make leaps one after the other.14. How does the author feel about the idea mentioned in Paragraph 4?A. It is valuable.B. It is interesting.C. It is imaginative.D. It is questionable.15. Which may be the reason for fish leaps according to the author?A. To remove parasites.B. To amuse themselves.C. To take in more oxygen.D. To express positive emotions.第二节 (一共(yīgòng)5小题;每一小题2.5分,满分是1分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项里面选出能填入空白处的最正确选项。

Making any kind of progress can make us healthy and happy in life. By setting and actively working towards our goals, we can make progress in our life. To make more progress in life, start looking at problems in a different way. Whatever happens, if we think positively, it can be useful and helpful. We need to know that problems are part of our life. After we solve problems one after another, we can make more progress and become stronger. Having confidence (信心) is helpful for us to make progress. Confidence comes from different places, such as proper education, training or having good relationships. We should also stay with people who believe in our success and actively support us. These people can help push us towards progress. Slow progress is still progress. Just as the old saying goes, "It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop." Progress usually comes a lot more slowly than we expect. Even if progress is slow, try not to be worried. One important thing is that we keep taking steps towards our goals, and another is that we clearly remember what our goals are all the time. The actual speed isn't important. The road to progress is not always smooth. Most progress often comes with setbacks along the way. Sometimes, maybe it feels like we're taking one step forward and three steps back, but it won't always be like that. Keep going towards our goals and we can much more easily make the progress we want. Progress doesn't always happen in a straight line. As long as we keep working, we will achieve higher levels.(1) What does progress make us do?A. Set lifelong goalsB. Go forward easily.C. Live healthily and happily.D. Think about new things.(2) What does Paragraph 3 tell us?A. We should support different people.B. Some people can push us to failure.C. Confidence helps us make progress.D. Different schools expect the same progress.(3) What does the writer say about slow progress?A. It often goes smoothly.B. It still means progress.C. It sometimes stops progress.D. It always gives us a clear mind.(4) Which word is close to the underlined word "setbacks"?A. prizesB. advantagesC. excusesD. difficulties(5) Which can be a proper title for the text?A. Ideas about Making ProgressB. Keys to Speeding up ProgressC. Meanings of Having ConfidenceD. Suggestions on Relationships19、C What will travel be like in 2070? Maybe travel will become smarter and easier by that time. Here are some amazing predictions about traveling that might happen in 2070.At the airport You will use "heartbeat passport(护照)" at the airport. And passport checks will not be used any more. Because everyone's heartbeat is different and it can tell you who you are and where you will go.

AVisiting Joshua Tree National Park, CaliforniaJoshua Tree National Park is nearly 800,000 acres large and surrounds parts of the Mojave and Colorado Deserts in South-central California. Although barren at first glance, the park is full of wildlife and provides a variety of entertainment activities from hiking to climbing. Within a 3-hour drive, Joshua Tree National Park takes at least a full day to visit.Things to do●Hiking opportunities within the park include several choices,from 12 self-guided nature trails to all-day back-country hikes.●Joshua Tree National Park has nine camping grounds, andback-country camping is also allowed.●Rock-climbing is a popular activity in the park, which has 10mountains greater than 5,000 feet in height.When to visitJoshua Tree National Park is open 365 days a year, although the best time to visit is October through April, when temperature is milder. The peak season is when the wild flowers bloom, and summer months are the least crowded.What to bringIn addition to your camera and telescope, be sure to carry lots of water. Park and trail maps can be picked up at any of the three visitor centres.Fees●Parking fees: You can buy a 7-day vehicle permit for $15, a singleentry permit for $5, or Joshua Tree National Park annual pass for $60.●Camping fees: They vary by camping ground.1.The underlined word “barren” in the first paragraph can be replacedby _______.A. thinB. beautifulC. desertedD. large2. When is the best time to visit Joshua Tree National Park?A. MarchB. MayC. JuneD. September3. If one goes to Joshua Tree National Park by car and stay there for9 days, how much at least he should pay for the parking fees?A. $60B. $15C. $25D. $30BMy teacher, Mr. August J. Bachmann, was the most influential teacher I ever had.I had gotten into trouble in his class: Another student had pushed me for fun, and I became angry and began to hit him. Mr. Bachmann stopped the fight, but instead of sending me to the office, he sat me down and asked a simple question: "Penna, why are you wasting your life? Why aren't you going to college?"I didn't know anything about colleges or scholarships. No one had ever considered that a fatherless boy from the poorest neighborhood had a future. That day, instead of rushing off for lunch, he stayed and explained possible education options to me. At the end of our talk, he sent me to see a secretary who had a child at a state college. This was in 1962 at Emerson High School in Union City, New Jersey.Well, 53 years have passed, and what have I done with the knowledge he gave me? I gained a PhD from Fordham University when I was only 29.I taught English and social studies and then moved up the chain of command from teacher to principal.I've sat on the board for Magnet Schools of America and represented that organization at the United Nations. I've won a number of great educational awards. But where would I be if a truly caring teacher had not taken the time out of his lunch period to speak to me? It was without question only his confidence in me that helped me forward.I have repaid his kindness hundreds of times by encouraging misguided youngsters to aim higher. If I have saved any children, it is because of him. If I have been a successful educator, it is becauseI had a great role model in Mr. Bachmann.4. The writer ________ before Mr. Bachmann talked to him.A. was an active boyB. liked making troubles in classC. was an aimless boyD. would get punished by his teachers5. Which of the following best describes Mr. Bachmann?A. Fair.B. Confident.C. Inspiring.D. Humorous.6. How did Mr. Bachmann influence the writer?A. He set the writer on the right path.B. He tried to set a good example to the writer.C. He was strict with the writer.D. He helped the writer with his study.7. What does the writer think of his achievement?A. He is very proud of himself.B. He feels his effort gets paid off at last.C. He owes his achievement to Mr. Bachmann.D. He thinks it an honor to be a successful educator.CSee a cellphone cover that you like on Taobao? Forget about placing an order, paying the bill online and waiting for days for it to be delivered to you. In the near future, you'll be able to get it in minutes just by hitting “print” on your computer.You might find it hard to believe that you could actually “print” an object like you would a picture. But it is not that hard to understand how it would work. Just as a traditional printer sprays ink onto paper line by line, modern 3D printers spread material onto a surface layer by layer, from the bottom to the top, gradually building up a shape.Instead of ink, the materials the 3D printer uses are mainly plastic, resin and certain metals. The thinner each layer is—from a millimetre to less than the width of a hair—the smoother and finer the object will be.This may sound like a completely new technology, but the truth is that 3D printing has been around since the late 1980s. Back then, it was barely affordable for most people, so few knew about it.Last year, though, saw a big change in the 3D printing industry—printers became much cheaper. For example, 10 years ago a desktop 3D printer might have cost £20,000, while now they cost only about £1,000, according to the BBC.Taken out of the factory and introduced to more diverse and common uses, 3D printing can create just about anything you can think of—flutes , bikinis, jewelry, aircraft parts and even human organs. In fact, scientists from Cornell University in New York have just made an artificial ear using a 3D printer, according to Science Daily. The fake ear looks and acts exactly like a natural one.However, as 3D printing becomes more common, it may bring about certain problems—such as piracy. “Once you can download a coffee maker, or print out a new set of kitchen utensils on your personal 3D printer, who will visit a retail store again?” an expert in 3D printing told Forbes News. Even more frightening, what if anyone in the world could use a 3D printer to print out a fully functioning gun?8.According to the article, in the future, the 3D printing technology will _______.A. enable people to make better purchases onlineB. change the way we make many productsC. be applied as widely in our daily life as computersD. shorten the time it takes for people to get what they buy online9. What happened in the 3D printing industry last year?A. The 3D printing technology was taken out of the factory.B. The 3D printing technology began to be used in various fields.C. The 3D printer was used for medical treatment for the first time.D. The 3D printer became more affordable for consumers.10. How is the last paragraph developed?A. By giving examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By analyzing the cause and effect.D. By presenting research findings.11. What is the best title of the passage?A. Great Demand for 3D PrintersB. Technology in the FutureC. Online Shopping DisappearingD. Printing out EverythingDWhether or not to go to university will probably be the biggest educational decision you ever make. After battling with student finance, deciding whether or not to take a year out can be as terrifying as deciding where to move to for the three years. Some students will have planned their year out for months, but, for others, slipped grades may force a gap year(间隔年), either to retake exams or to apply to different universities. Others might just need time to think. Thankfully, for U.K. students, taking a gap year remains a good option and it can be one of the most productive and fulfilling years of their life.Whether you’ve planned and budgeted for a year abr oad, or have made a last-minute decision to delay your first year, the options are endless. Traveling, volunteering and so on are all there for the talking. With so many things on offer, it’s important to remember that 12 months won’t be enough time to do all of them, so decide early and work towards making whatever you want to do a reality.Researching a gap year is exciting, and often the place to start is at home. Family and friends can be a great source of inspiration. Your school or college might be fully equipped to advise you on what to do when further education is on hold. Don’t under estimate(低估)the power of the Internet, either. Typing a “gap year” into a search engine might seem too obvious, but planning to travel around the world for months on your own is not appropriate.To stay at home or go abroad is likely to be the first question you consider, but in this era of budget flights, doing both is practicable.A European inter-rail ticket(火车票)can be as little as £ 159. Forthose loving traveling, they must be on the special watchfulness for tricks in the process. Agencies can organize your year abroad for you, and often, it is more effective to make the bookings through the agencies. But flights and other forms of transport within Asia and America are much cheaper when bought in the countries rather than bought in advance. 12. According to Paragraph 2, why do some students have to take a gap year?A. Because they are faced with financial problems.B. Because they dislike what they are learning .C. Because they haven’t got satisfying grades.D. Because they intend to hang out for a year.13. The underline words “on hold” in Paragra p h 4 mean “________”.A. taken inB. put offC. given upD. turned out14. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Few students can afford to go abroad.B. Traveling around Europe costs nothing.C. It’s better to go to Asia and south America.D. Travellers should make sure they aren’t cheated.15. The auther’s attitude towards a gap year may best describedas__________A. supportiveB. negativeC. defensiveD. sensitive 第二节(共5小题, 每小题2分, 满分10分)根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项, 选项中有两项为多余选项,并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。

Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Painting has been continuously practiced by humans for some 20,000 years. It was one of the earliest ways in which man __41__ to express his own personality and his emerging understanding of an existence beyond the material world. Unlike music and dance, however, examples of early forms of painting have __42__ to the present day. Painting, like other arts, __43__ universal qualities that make it easy for viewers of all nations and civilizations to understand and appreciate.The major __44__ examples of early painting anywhere in the world are found in Western Europe and the Russia. But some 5, 000 years ago, the areas in which important paintings were created __45__ to the eastern Mediterranean Sea and neighboring regions. Therefore, Western shared a European cultural tradition—the Middle East and Mediterranean Basin and, later, the countries of the New World.Western painting is in general distinguished by its __46__ on the representation of the human figure. The Renaissance(文艺) extended this tradition through a close examination of the natural world and an investigation of balance, harmony, and perspective in the visible world. The first real __47__ from figurative painting came with the growth of landscape painting in the 17th and 18th centuries. The landscape and figurative traditions developed together in the 19th century in an atmosphere that was __48__ concerned with “painterly” qualities of the interaction of light and color and the expressive qualities of paint handling. In the 20th century these interests contributed to the development of a third __49__ tradition in Western painting, abstract painting.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Why do people go to university? There is a popular notion that a college education is something to be endured in order to become __50__ to obtain certain kinds of jobs or to go to graduate school. This is not what we are trying to do at Harvard, nor would we wish to have many students here who took such a(n) __51__ view of a college career.There are several goals we aim to reach in our undergraduate program.The most obvious one is to give knowledge—fairly __52__ knowledge in one field and a more general knowledge of a variety of other subject areas which you may choose according to your interest. But if acquiring knowledge is a self-evident part of a college education, it is __53__ the most important. Remarkably few of the facts you learn here will remain in your __54__ for many years, and some of those that do will even be proved __55__ by new knowledge.__56__, we can instill(灌输) certain attitudes of mind—a willingness to accept uncertainty, and the lack of definite truths; independence of mind, and a respect for facts and for the uncomfortable conclusions which facts sometimes lead to.In addition to these __57__ qualities, a college education should try to lay a foundation for the creative use of __58__ time. Some of this capacity can be stimulated in the classroom—in courses in the humanities and the arts. Yet, at least as much __59__ will occur outside the lecture hall—on athletic fields, in music rooms, student theaters, concert halls, and so forth.These are some of the __60__ of a liberal college education as I see them.I cannot resist concluding with a few private thoughts about our new careers at Harvard.To begin with, I hope that we will think __61__ about what we want to accomplish here. It would be __62__ for you to set your sights on some limited goal, such as getting good grades or merely getting into one or another graduate school.Second, I hope that you will give some thought to what you can do for others during your stay here. There are many problems waiting for your help, and many people who could __63__ your efforts.My final bit of advice. Whatever else we do, let us remember not to take ourselves too seriously. However great our problems may seem, however urgent our complaints, they are overshadowed(黯然失色) by the __64__ of countless other people on our planet.50. A. fascinated B. qualified C. determined D. required51. A. optimistic B. strong C. narrow D. sensitive52. A. concentrated B. expanded C. informed D. illustrated53. A. by far B. far from C. free from D. without doubt54. A. memory B. position C. evaluation D. foundation55. A. useful B. essential C. false D. common56. A. Besides B. However C. Therefore D. Somehow57. A. physical B. inborn C. emotional D. intellectual58. A. business B. study C. experiment D. leisure59. A. appreciation B. stimulation C. participation D. exposure60. A. benefits B. aims C. problems D. achievements61. A. broadly B. honestly C. freely D. continually62. A. fantastic B. magic C. tragic D. basic63. A. suffer from B. profit from C. reflect onD. complain about64. A. inspiration B. difference C. ambitions D. difficultiesSection BDirections: Read the following four passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, and C. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)A friend of mine, in response to a conversation we were having about the injustices of life, asked me the question: “Who said life was going to be fair, or that it was even meant to be fair?” Her question was a good one. It reminded me of something I was taught as a youngster-life isn’t fair. One of the mistakes many of us make is that we feel sorry for ourselves or for others, thinking that life should be fair or that someday it will be. It’s not and it won’t.One of the nice things about accepting the fact that life isn’t fair is that it keeps us from feeling sorry for ourselves by encouraging us to do the very best we can with what we have. Accepting this fact also keeps us from feeling sorry for others because we are reminded that everyone is dealt a different hand; everyone has unique strengths and problems in the process of growing up, facing the reality and making decisions, and everyone has those times that they feel wounded or unfairly treated.The fact that life isn’t fair doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do everything in our power to improve our own lives or the world as a whole. On the contrary, it suggests that we should. When we don’t recognize or admit life isn’t fair, we tend to feel pity for others and for ourselves, a self-defeating emotion that does nothing except make everyone feel worse. When we do recognize life isn’t fair, however, we feel sympathy for others and for ourselves. And sympathy is a heartfelt emotion that delivers loving kindness to everyone it touches. The next time you find yourself thinking about the injustices of the world, try reminding yourself of this very basic fact. You may be surprised that it can push you out of self-pity and into helpful action.65. The author thought of his friend’s question as a good onebecause ________.A. he also wanted to know who held such an opinionB. like his friend, he also thought life was unfairC. it made him regret something during his childhoodD. he learned something from the question as a youngster66. Accepting the injustices of life will ______.A. stop us making everything perfectB. let us deal with others differentlyC. get us to feel sorry for othersD. inspire us to make every effort67. In the last paragraph, “this very basic fact” refers to the fact that ______.A. life is not and will not be fairB. you should not pity for othersC. pity is a self-defeating emotionD. sympathy is a heartfelt emotion68. From the pas sage, we can learn that the author’s attitude to life is ______.A. indifferentB. self-pityC. negativeD. positive(B)69. If the use of a new word is known to only a restricted group of people, it will ________.A. stand the test of time B. have a decent history of use C. be included in the dictionary D. be rejected temporarily70. Which of the following is not a necessary step of the new word inclusion process?A. Researching the word.B. Consulting users.C. Crafting the entry.D. Sourcing new words.71. What is the purpose of presenting this graph?A. To encourage people to use the online database.B. To promote the new version of dictionary.C. To respond to people’s request about the word inclusion process.D. To inform people of the new words to be included in the dictionary. CWhat are feelings for? Most nonscientists will find it a strange question. Feelings justify themselves. Emotions give meaning and depth to life. They exist without serving any other purposes. On the other hand, many evolutionary biologists acknowledge some emotions primarily for their survival function. For both animals and humans, fear motivates the avoidance of danger, love is necessary to care for the young, and anger prepares one to hold ground. But the fact that a behavior functions to serve survival need not mean that. Other scientists have regarded the same behavior as conditioning and learned responses. Certainlyreflexes(反射) and fixed action patterns can occur without feeling or conscious thought. A baby seagull pecks(啄) at a red spot on the bill(喙) of its parent. The seagull parent feeds its baby when pecked on the bill and the baby gets fed. The interaction need have no emotional content. At the same time, there is no reason why such actions cannot have emotional content. In mammals that have given birth including humans, milk is often released automatically when a new baby cries. This is not under intended control but it is reflex. Yet this does not mean that feeding a new baby is exclusively reflex and expresses no feeling like love. Humans have feelings about their behavior even if it is conditioned or reflexive. Yet since reflexes exist and conditioned behavior is widespread, measurable, and observable, most scientists try to explain animal behavior by using only these concepts. It is simpler. Preferring to explain behavior in ways that fit science's methods most easily, scientists have refused to consider any causes for animal behavior other than reflexive and conditioned ones. Scientific orthodoxy (正统) holds that what cannot be readily measured or tested cannot exist, or is unworthy of serious attention. But emotional explanations for animal behavior need not be impossibly complex or unstable. They are just more difficult for the scientific method to check on in the usual ways, so cleverer and more skillful approaches are called for. Most branches of science are more willing to make successive evaluation of what may prove ultimately unknowable, rather than ignoring it altogether.72. The example of the baby seagull pecking the parent’s bill is used to support that ______.A. it is an inborn ability for adults to look after the youngB. behaviors can be learned and involve no emotionsC. emotions are of great importance for survivalD. it takes time for animals to be conditioned73. Which of the following can be learned from the passage?A. Breast-feeding a baby is conditioned or reflective but have no emotional connection.B. Reflexes and conditioning will lead to a better understanding of animal emotions.C. Scientists usually apply reflexes and conditioning in explaining animal behaviors.D. Many evolutionary biologists believe that emotions are to some degree for survival.74. To study animal emotions, scientists should ______.A. analyze human emotionsB. distinguish what is emotionalC. set up improved experimentsD. learn from animal behaviorists75. What is the author’s main purpose of writing this passage?A. To illustrate that emotions are worth our attention.B. To compare human emotions with animal emotions.C. To discuss the importance and usefulness of emotions.D. To explain what reflexive and conditioned behaviors are.Section CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for eachparagraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.Saving money and being more economical is neither a science nor an art; rather it is somewhere in between and requires your commitment and hard work. Saving money takes time to develop, needs to be learnt, and brings benefits that will endure for the rest of your life.76. ______Review what you spend and look at ways you can save money. Consider making telephone calls for instance only at off-peak times. Do you really need to have newspapers and magazines delivered? Can you do without those coffees you buy at break time everyday-would a flask of coffee taken to work save you money? What about using the public lending library instead of buying books or music CDs?77. ______This is essential for families and individuals and can be the fastest way to save money. You will instantly see your incomings and outgoings once you figure out the amount of money available to spend. You will not be able to save money unless you know how much money you have coming in, and how much money you have going out.78. ______Do your price research before you make an expensive purchase in a retailers promotion. You have to be sure the promotion really is not a creative marketing strategy of the store to encourage you to spend your money without thinking. Once you have researched the true price of a product (any product) you are in a good position to take advantage ofa promotion, special offer or discount and really save money.79. ______Consider markets, superstores, farmer’s markets, local shops and stores. Anywhere is worth checking out to see if you can save money. Farmer’s Markets can be particularly good places to save money. Typically you are buying direct from the producer of the product so the savings are passed on to you. Use your bulk buying strategy here-farmer’s markets often offer opportunities to save money by buying larger quantities of staples, for instance potatoes, rice or corn.80. ______We live in a consumer society where waste is a huge problem. If we could all use and consume less, there would be less waste and power consumption. Consider using less shampoo when you wash your hair, this may not mean washing your hair less effectively but it means not flushing the excess shampoo and your money down the drain. Turn off lights, the TV and the computer when they are not in use. Each little saving you make will build up and enable you to save money.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.The internal greenhouse effect of a daffodil(水仙花)shui10Early pollinators (授粉昆虫) struggle with cold weather, so it's no wonder that late-winter flowers such asdaffodil tend to have extended blooming times and long-lasting flowers, some of which remain open for more than two weeks. When the sun is out, they can offer a warmmicroenvironment for bees.Although they usually start showing off in the Washington area by late February,blooming times for daffodil are highly variable, depending on variety, weather and planting location. Moisture, tree cover and mineral availability all affect flowering time, but soil temperature tends to have the greatest influence on early-blooming flowers. The microclimate of a south-facing slope will display blooms well before flowers appear in the shadow of a building that gets only a half-day of sun.Once open, the flower can create a microclimate within itself. When sunlight hits a daffodilflower, its tube-shaped corolla acts as a tiny greenhouse, raising temperatures inside a flower as much as 15 degrees higher than the surrounding air.That's good news for small bees, which in late winter have trouble getting warm enough to fly.Bumblebees and honeybees prepare to fly on cold days by exercising their flight muscles to generate heat. But mining bees, which nest in the ground, are less able to do that and are more dependent on surrounding temperatures to warm them up for takeoff.Spanish ecologist Carlos M. Herrera studied the relationship between mining bees and native daffodil flowers. The bees he studied could fly only if their internal body temperatures approached 72 degrees, yet they were able to forage(觅食) in 54-degree weather. Basking(取暖) in sunlight on the outside of a warm daffodil bloom was enough to get a bee airborne. Heat from flight muscles could then help keep bees in the air, but they still relied on blossom-basking to supplement their heat needs. Although a bee inside a flower has access to warmth and food, abee basking atop a flower can more effectively raise its temperature by absorbing heat both from direct sunlight and from the flower below. On those cooler days, bees spent most of their foraging time basking, but "flights between flowers were sometimes interrupted by sudden falls to the ground," Herrera wrote in his 1995 paper. "Fallen bees crawled into some nearby flower and basked before resuming normal foraging." (Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in No MORE THAN 12 WORDS.)81. According to the passage, what can help early pollinators to survive cold weather?82. Flowers on a south-facing slope usually open earlier because of ________________.83. What does the “good news for small bees” in paragraph 4 refer to?84. A bee can raise its temperature better at the top of a flower because both ________________ are its sources of warmth.第II卷(45分)I.
