It trains and educates wild wolves.B. It aims to rescue young abandoned wolves.C. It raises wolves for commercial purposes.D. It allows visitors to take a walk with wolves.5.What can be inferred from Shelley and Casey's explanation in Paragraph 2?______A. The walk can be potentially dangerous.B.

To attract attention.D. To seek companionship.7.Why do Casey and Shelley organize such an adventure______A. To advertise the center.B. To publicize wolf hunting.C. To promote environmental protection.D. To clarify some conventional views of wolves.CHave you ever heard of agritourism where you can experience farm life?If not,Dr.Cindy Ayers-Elliott will tell you the real story of Foot Print Farms.The original concept of building Foot Print Farms was simple.When Ayers-Elliott returned to her hometown after graduation,she didn' t have to look any further than her state' s alarming health statistics to find a mission.Everywhere she turned,there were reports of high blood pressure,diabetes,obesity and heart disease."The problem was already identified." explains Ayers-Elliott."Too many Mississippians were seriously unhealthy and it didn't take research to see that.And many of the state' s greatest health challenges could directly result from poor diet."These days,Foot Print Farms,which started with a few raised beds of herbs and vegetables,is making fresh,naturally grown food."When speaking of the key to my success,the co-op model works because we share the work and rewards," notes Ayers-Elliott." A perfect example is the Wingfield High School football team.To earn the money for equipment and other items,players committed to working five hours a week on the farm,and by the end of the summer they had produced 1,000 melons and the profits from their sales helped to buy weights,T-shirts,sweat suits and pregame meals.But the lessons they learned about the rewards of hard work and working together to accomplish something were even more valuable products of their efforts.""It' s a model that can easily be learned in other places and I' m looking forward to seeing some of our current partners do just that--to take what they have learned here and spin it off in other communities,"Ayers-Elliott remarks.She is now looking forward to developing an agritourism aspect to the farm,where visitors can experience farm life,learn new skills and take with them seeds of inspiration they can sow in their own communities when they return home.8.What made Ayers-Elliott set up Foot Print Farms______A. The problems faced by local farmers.B. Her further research into heart disease.C. The failure of her career after graduation.D. The health state of people in her hometown.9.Why does the author take the football team as an example______A. To advocate the concept of independence.B. To stress the importance of teamwork.C. To support the idea of co-op model.D. To explore the key to success.10.What is Ayers-Elliott' s attitude towards the future of Foot Print Farms______A. Optimistic.B. Skeptical.C. Cautious.D. Ambiguous.11.What is the main idea of the text______A. Naturally grown food benefits people's health.B. Food Print Farms is making a difference in Mississippi.C. Ayers-Elliott encourages people to experience farmD. Agritourism is becoming increasingly popular in America.DWe can video chat with astronauts aboard the International Space Station and watch live footage from the frozen heights of Everest.But communicating with a submarine (潜艇)or a diver is not so easy.The lack of practical methods for sharing data between underwater and airborne devices has long been a frustration for scientists.The difficulty stems from the fact that radio signals work perfectly in air travel but poorly in water.Sonar (声呐)signals used by underwater sensors reflect off the surface of the water rather than reaching the air.Now,researchers at MIT have developed a method with the potential to revolutionizeunderwater communication."What we've shown is that it's actually feasible to communicate from underwater to the air," says Fadel Adib,a professor at MJT's Media Lab,who led the research.The MIT researchers designed a system that uses an underwater machine to send sonar signals to the surface,making vibrations (震动)corresponding to the ls and Os of the data. A surface receiver then reads and decodes these tiny vibrations.The researchers call the system TARF.It has any number of potential real-world uses,Adib says.It could be used to find downed planes underwater by reading signals from sonar devices in a plane' s black box and it could allow submarines to communicate with the surface.Right now the technology is low-resolution.The initial study was conducted in the MIT swimming pool at maximum depths of around 11 or 12 feet.The next steps for the researchers are to see if TARF is workable at much greater depths and under varying conditions-high waves,storms,schools of fish.They also want to see if they can make the technology work in the other direction- air to water.If the technology proves successful in real-world conditions,expect "texting while diving" to be the latest underwater fashion.12.What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 1?______A. The future of video chat underwater and in air.B. The frustrations of developing underwater devices.C. The difficulty of communication from water to air.D. The current situation of communicating with a submarine.13.What does the underlined word "feasible" mean?______A. Achievable.B. Convenient.C. Changeable.D. Alternative.14.What do we know about TARF?______A. It is widely used to find downed planes.B. It can work well at great depths underwater.C. It is an underwater machine that sends signals.D. It can send,receive and read signals from underwater.15.What is the best title for the text?______A. The Real-world Uses of Sonar TechnologyB. Full Water-to-air Communication Closer to RealityC. A Breakthrough in the Application of Video ChatD. TARF Becoming a New Means of Communication二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Apologizing the Right Way to a Friend Why are apologies so difficult Saying you are sorry can be one of the most difficult things you do.But we all make mistakes,so you'll probably have an occasion when you need to apologize.Perhaps you had a big blow up and realized later you reacted poorly.(1) Whatever the reason,apologizing can help you both heal and move on from the situation.(2) First,you acknowledge that you did something wrong.With an apology,you take responsibility for your actions,which allows your friend to forgive you.Second,an apology gives you sincerity as a friend.(3) ,but that doesn' t mean you still shouldn't apologize.Now,what are elements of a proper apology?(4) ,depending on what the offense was,where it was done,and who you are apologizing to.In general, a good apology should include the following: a request for their attention,an acknowledgment of what happened,sincerity in admitting you did something wrong and the words."I'm sorry" or "I apologize." Here are things never to say when apologizing.Note that the art of apologizing involves taking responsibility.Never apologize as a way to "shut someone up" when they are sayingyou hurt their feelings and you don't think you did.(5) ,you should talk things through with your friend until you see why they are hurt or how you came across.You'll really need to self-reflect so you can see things from your friend' s point of view.A.When you make your apology in personB.If you really believe you did nothing wrongC.Apologies benefit friendships in a variety of waysD.The way you apologize is going to be slightly differentE.Or maybe you just didn't show support when you needed toF.Apologizing the right way,however,may take a little practiceG.Sometimes our pals forgive us easily for the minor things we do wrong16.

AThe weather might be freezing at home, but that doesn't mean you have to spend the winter trembling. Instead, grab your bathing suit and sunscreen and head to these sunny spots that offer the best warm-weather getaways.San Juan, Puerto RicoHead to the hot city nightlife of San Juan, where the streets of smart Condado back right onto the palm trees. Top chefs, stylish hotels, bars, clubs, and shops are all just steps away from the tropical beaches. Since Puerto Rico became a US commonwealth, it's one of the easiest islands in the Caribbean to visit since you won't need any passes, have to change money, or even worry about your cellphone working.Riviera Maya, MexicoWhat's better than diving into the salty sea? Going into the clear and salt-free waters of the natural limestone cenotes of the Riviera Maya and Yucatán Peninsula. Spend a sunny day exploring these natural cave pools filled with cool water that springs from the ground below and the thick palm forests that surround them. Then head back to Fairmont Mayakoba for comfortable rooms and modern Mexican cuisine.New OrleansNew Orleans's lively nightlife and live music scenes make the "Big Easy" a great girls' winter getaway.

Day in Chang'an has been one of the biggest pleasant surprises for fans of TV dramas this summer. Its intense story and well-designed costumes and scenery have captured the attention of viewers, earning it high marks on review platforms.The story takes place during the Lantern Festival in Chang'an, the capital of the Tang dynasty. The story follows Zhang Xiaojing, who has been sentenced to death. Before the execution (处决), he is appointed by Li Bi, the young chief of the intelligence department, to stop a group of suspected terrorists called the Wolf Squad and protect Chang'an.One of the main attractions of the drama has been its recreation and presentation of the ancient city of Chang'an. To give viewers the feeling that they are traveling in the city, the show's director Cao Dun has been making use of single shot scenes that show what the crowded market would have been like during the Lantern Festival in Chang'an. The cast has also been a major draw. They have been an irreplaceable part of the drama. These experienced actors are the foundation for the drama.The drama includes some impressive and important plot elements, such as watchtowers in the city that are manned by sharpshooters who can hit any target in their range. The production team even came up with a detailed secret communication system that these watchtowers use to communicate with each other. Another innovation is the use of screen notes to explain terms that audiences would be unfamiliar with, such as the term " bu liang ren", which audiences may mistakenly think refers to a villain(坏人)in the drama. An explanation appears on the screen to tell the audience that "bu liang ren" are specialists trained to catch evil guys. It's really helpful.According to Paragraph 2, what do we know about Zhang Xiaojing?A He ends up being killed by suspected terrorists.B He is appointed as the chief of the intelligence departmentby Li Bi.C He is still sentenced to life imprisonment though he isinnocent.D He is chosen to defeat the suspected terrorists though hefaces a death sentence.The drama's director employs the skill of single shot scenes in order to ______.A make viewers experience the feeling of traveling in the cityB let audiences have a good trip in Chang'anC have audiences understand the history wellD show what the Lantern Festival is likeWhat does the term "bu liang ren" refer to?A The people who are thought to have committed a crime.B The people who are expert at arresting bad men.C The people who have no family or possessions.D The people who are referred to as villains.What is the last paragraph mainly about?A The explanation for screen notes.B The introduction of the communication system.C The innovation elements of the drama.D The audience's assessments of the drama.3.Empathy(同理心)is one of those strange qualities—something almost everyone wants, but few know how to truly give or receive it. In a world where self-satisfaction is emphasized, it is in short supply but high demand. This is all the more reason to teach the next generation what it means to have empathy for those around them.What Is Empathy? Many people confuse sympathy and empathy, but they are two distinct values. Empathy is not just the ability to understand someone's feelings; criminals often take advantage of people by appearing to understand their feelings and subsequently gaining their trust. Empathy is more than that. Not only is it the ability to recognize how someone feels, but it also values and respects the feelings of another person. It means treating others with kindness, dignity, and understanding.Kids Need To See Adults Show Empathy—While some children are gifted with naturally kind hearts, in most cases kids need to see empathy modeled by the adults around them. It begins with the way parents relate to their children. Parents who show an interest in the things that matter to their kids and respond to emotions in a positive and caring way are teaching the skill of empathy.Meet Emotional Needs—When children have their emotional needs met, two things happen. They learn how to meet the emotional needs of others and they are anchored in what they are receiving, meaning that they are secure enough to give to others when the need arises but first they need to receive. An empty jug cannot fill a cup.It's a good idea to talk to kids about emotions and how other people experience them. Give their emotions tames (for example, jealousy, anger, and love) and teach them that these are normal. Talk to them about how to handle emotions in a positive way and point out situations where other people are experiencing emotions. Teach them about respecting the emotions of others and show them how to act in a situation where a response is required.(1)Why are the next generation taught to have empathy?A Everyone needs empathy.B Empathy is a strange quality.C It's better to give than to receive.D People tend to center themselves.(2)Which situation can empathy be used in?A When a teacher is comforting a student about his failure in exams.B When a criminal is cheating a victim.C When a dancer is dancing to music.D When a mathematician is calculating the area of a farmland.(3)What does the underlined sentence "An empty jug cannot fill a cup" mean?A It's a must to talk to kids about emotions.B Adults should set an example tokids. C Kids give empathy with their emotional needs met first. D An empty jug is too small to hold a cup.(4)What is the best title of the passage?A How to distinguish sympathy and empathy.B How to help kids finish empathy-related tasks.C Whether kids can be trained to be more empathetic.D How to train kids to have empathy.4.ls there a link between social media and depression? Do Facebook and Instagram have a negative impact on your mental health? It's complicated.Sometimes, looking through Instagram just makes you feel bad. You try not to envy your friends, but they always seem to be traveling somewhere cool, eating something fancy, or looking cute in perfect just-rolled-out-of-bed hair. On the other hand, there are times when you laugh at funny memes(表情包), catch up with old friends, and feel happy to belong to fun social media communities. Clearly, social media isn't all bad.People are increasingly suspect that there're the potential problems of social media. Things like cyberbullying, screen addiction, and being exposed to endless filtered images(美颜)that make it impossible not to make comparisons between yourself and others often make the news. In July, a big study came out in the journal JAMA titled "Association of Screen Time and Depression in Adolescence." This big headline seems to confirm what a lot of people have been saying—screen time is horrible for young people.The study followed over 3800 adolescents over four years as part of a drug and alcohol prevention program. Part of what the investigators measured was the teens' amount of screen time, including time spent on social media, as well as their levels of depression symptoms. One of their main findings was that higher amounts of social media use were associated with higher levels of depression. That was true both when the researches compared between people and compared each person against their own mental health over time.Case closed? Not so fast. Before we end the debate once and for all, let's take a closer look at this and other studies. Let's ask ourselves: what exactly is the relationship between social media use and depression? It turns out there are several warnings.(1)Why do people sometimes feel bad when looking through Instagram?A They feel unbalanced.B They can travel nowhere.C They don't lookperfect. D They lack contact with old friends.(2)Why is the article in journal JAMA mentioned?A To comment.B To suggest.C To prove.D To explore.(3)Which may agree with the findings of the study?A Teens' amount of screen time is limited.B Depression is related to social media use.C It is not easy to tell reasons for depression.D Social media use contributes to mental health.(4)What's the best title of the text?A How to reduce depression?B Shall people reduce screen time?C Does social media cause depression?D Why is it time to give up social media?二、七选五5.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。

A perfect example is the Wingfield High School football team.To earn the money for equipment and other items,players committed to working five hours a week on the farm,and by the end of the summer they had produced 1,000 melons and the profits from their sales helped to buy weights,T-shirts,sweat suits and pregame meals.But the lessons they learned about the rewards of hard work and working together to accomplish something were even more valuable products of their efforts.""It' s a model that can easily be learned in other places and I' m looking forward to seeing some of our current partners do just that--to take what they have learned here and spin it off in other communities,"Ayers-Elliott remarks.She is now looking forward to developing an agritourism aspect to the farm,where visitors can experience farm life,learn new skills and take with them seeds of inspiration they can sow in their own communities when they return home.8.What made Ayers-Elliott set up Foot Print Farms?______A. The problems faced by local farmers.B. Her further research into heart disease.C. The failure of her career after graduation.D. The health state of people in her hometown.9.Why does the author take the football team as an example?______A. To advocate the concept of independence.B. To stress the importance of teamwork.C. To support the idea of co-op model.D. To explore the key to success.10.What is Ayers-Elliott' s attitude towards the future of Foot Print Farms?______A. Optimistic.B. Skeptical.C. Cautious.D. Ambiguous.11.What is the main idea of the text?______A. Naturally grown food benefits people's health.B. Food Print Farms is making a difference in Mississippi.C. Ayers-Elliott encourages people to experience farmD. Agritourism is becoming increasingly popular in America.DWe can video chat with astronauts aboard the International Space Station and watch live footage from the frozen heights of Everest.But communicating with a submarine (潜艇)or a diver is not so easy.The lack of practical methods for sharing data between underwater and airborne devices has long been a frustration for scientists.The difficulty stems from the fact that radio signals work perfectly in air travel but poorly in water.Sonar (声呐)signals used by underwater sensors reflect off the surface of the water rather than reaching the air.Now,researchers at MIT have developed a method with the potential to revolutionize underwater communication."What we've shown is that it's actually feasible to communicate from underwater to the air," says Fadel Adib,a professor at MJT's Media Lab,who led the research.The MIT researchers designed a system that uses an underwater machine to send sonar signals to the surface,making vibrations (震动)corresponding to the ls and Os of the data.Asurface receiver then reads and decodes these tiny vibrations.The researchers call the system TARF.It has any number of potential real-world uses,Adib says.It could be used to find downed planes underwater by reading signals from sonar devices in a plane' s black box and it could allow submarines to communicate with the surface.Right now the technology is low-resolution.The initial study was conducted in the MIT swimming pool at maximum depths of around 11 or 12 feet.The next steps for the researchers are to see if TARF is workable at much greater depths and under varying conditions-high waves,storms,schools of fish.They also want to see if they can make the technology work in the other direction- air to water.If the technology proves successful in real-world conditions,expect "texting while diving" to be the latest underwater fashion.12.What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 1?______A. The future of video chat underwater and in air.B. The frustrations of developing underwater devices.C. The difficulty of communication from water to air.D. The current situation of communicating with a submarine.13.What does the underlined word "feasible" mean?______A. Achievable.B. Convenient.C. Changeable.D. Alternative.14.What do we know about TARF?______A. It is widely used to find downed planes.B. It can work well at great depths underwater.C. It is an underwater machine that sends signals.D. It can send,receive and read signals from underwater.15.What is the best title for the text?______A. The Real-world Uses of Sonar TechnologyB. Full Water-to-air Communication Closer to RealityC. A Breakthrough in the Application of Video ChatD. TARF Becoming a New Means of Communication二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Apologizing the Right Way to a Friend Why are apologies so difficult?Saying you are sorry can be one of the most difficult things you do.But we all make mistakes,so you'll probably have an occasion when you need to apologize.Perhaps you had a big blow up and realized later you reacted poorly.(1) Whatever the reason ,apologizing can help you both heal and move on from the situation.(2) First,you acknowledge that you did something wrong.With an apology,you take responsibility for your actions,which allows your friend to forgive you.Second,an apology gives you sincerity as a friend.(3) ,but that doesn' t mean you still shouldn't apologize.Now,what are elements of a proper apology?(4) ,depending on what the offense was,where it was done,and who you are apologizing to.In general,a good apology should include the following:a request for their attention,an acknowledgment of what happened,sincerity in admitting you did something wrong and the words."I'm sorry" or "I apologize."Here are things never to say when apologizing.Note that the art of apologizing involves taking responsibility.Never apologize as a way to "shut someone up" when they are saying you hurt their feelings and you don't think you did.(5) ,you should talk things through with your friend until you see why they are hurt or how you came across.You'll really need to self-reflect so you can see things from your friend' s point of view.A.When you make your apology in personB.If you really believe you did nothing wrongC.Apologies benefit friendships in a variety of waysD.The way you apologize is going to be slightly differentE.Or maybe you just didn't show support when you needed toF.Apologizing the right way,however,may take a little practiceG.Sometimes our pals forgive us easily for the minor things we do wrong16.

She decided not to buy any new clothes or footwear for a whole year after she returned home to Adelaide. in Southern Australia, and she managed to make it.But last year, as her wedding day approached, she faced a dilemma. She wanted to look good on the most important day of her life. but how could she spend a small fortune on the wedding dress she would only wear on that day?"In the end I decided that if I was going to get a wedding dress. I'd make sure I could get my money's worth, " Hall tells PA Real Life."The first time I wore it after the wedding was to vote in the Australian election inearly2019." the 43﹣year﹣old adds. "Since then. it's been to all sorts ofplaces. Wearing it on a crowded train was especially funny, but I've worn it to do housework. to football games and to the gym. "Hall says that she has gotten some strange looks from people, but no ________ comments. It may have something to do with the fact that the dress is not the fanciest, but she believes people are just too reserved to say anything.

Ants keep traffic flowing by changing their behavior to meet changingconditions, according to new research.For their experiment, researchers from the University of Toulouse and the University of Arizona focused on Argentine ants. which are only 2﹣3 millimeters long and frequently move from colony(栖息地) to colony depending on how far food is. Tapping into theants' talent for fast commutes (通勤) , the researchers constructed bridges between theircolonies. The bridges varied in width from a fifth to three﹣quarters of an inch.Then the researchers sat back and monitored the traffic. To their surprise, even when those narrower bridges were nearly overloaded. there were n0 20﹣ant pile﹣ups. And traffic remained steady regardless of how crowed the bridges were because ants could adjust to the flow of road conditions."When crowding on the path increased. ants assessed it locally and adjusted their speed accordingly to avoid any interruption of traffic flow." the researchers said. "Moreover. ants avoided entering a crowded path and made sure the bridge was never overloaded. "The lesson for humans? The traffic problem mostly lies in our loss of the quality that the ants have. You've probably noticed it on your own commute to work. Driving is fun when there're few cars on the road﹣a lane﹣change(车道变换) here. a little acceleration there. Then traffic slows down. But some impatient drivers still constantly move between lanes."Traffic jams are common in human society where some people are focusing on their own personal objectives, " the researchers said. "In contrast, ants share a common goal: the survival of the colony, thus they're expected to act cooperatively to get food. "The research also suggests that the ever﹣widening of highways may never free us from traffic jams. As long as we drive along with our own agendas, no matter how many other people are on the road, we'll always end up in a traffic jam. Indeed, less space may be a good thing. It leaves less room for personal choices and forces us to take a page from the driving handbook of ants.(1)What did the researchers do to the ants in the experiment?________A They fed them with much delicious food.B They trained them to avoid heavy traffic.C They built bridges linking their colonies.D They improved their colonies constantly..(2)How did the ants behave during the experiment?________A They worked together to remove the road blocks.B They sped up to get out of the traffic jam quickly.C They made their way carefully in the givendirection. D They adjusted themselves for the flow of the traffic..(3)What is the biggest cause of the traffic jam in human society?________A Poor road construction.B People's inability to adjust.C People's selfish driving.D Too many vehicles on roads..(4)What is the text mainly about?________A What ants help us do for driving safety.B What ants can teach us about traffic jams.C Why ants drive much better than humans.D Why ants are best at handling traffic jams.4. A new device(设备) works like a solar panel, except it doesn't harvest energy from the sun to produce electricity. Instead, it uses energy from the cold night sky.In the center of this device is a thermoelectric generator(热电发电机), which uses thetemperature difference between Earth and outer space to create electricity.As long as one side of it is cooler than the other, the generator can produce electricity.The cooler side faces the sky and is attached to an aluminum plate. That plate is sealed under a transparent cover and surrounded with materials that keep heat out. It stays cooler than the surrounding air by getting rid of any heat it absorbs as infrared(红外线) radiation. That radiation can zip up through the transparent cover and on toward outer space.The bottom of the generator is attached to an exposed aluminum plate, which is warmed by the local air. At night, the top plate can get several degrees centigrade cooler than the bottom of the generator.Researchers tested the device one clear December night in Stanford, Calif. The generator produced up to about 25 mill watts of power per square meter of the device. That was just enough power to light a small electric lamp. Further improvements might develop its production to at least 500 mill watts per square meter."It's a very clever idea, " says Yuan Yang, a materials scientist who works at Columbia University in New York City. "The device still needs improving, " he notes. "But this new device may be useful for backup power, " Yang says. "It might also provide a bit of energy to people living in areas that lack electricity."The device could help power remote weather stations or other environmental devices." says Aaswath Raman. a materials scientist who worked on the device at the University of California, Los Angeles. What's more, this may be useful in areas that don't see sunlight for months at a time. Raman adds.(1)How is the device designed?________A It includes two aluminum plates with different functions.B It is equipped with a heat﹣resistant generator in the center.C Its two aluminum plates are exposed to air to keep heat out.D Its generator is sealed by a transparent cover to remain cool..(2)What is the limitation with the tested device?________A It won't be expanded to be much larger.B It fails to produce electricity fast enough.C It is unable to power small electric lamps.D It produces a limited amount of electricity..(3)In paragraph 6. Yuan Yang mainly intends to________.A evaluate the device on a positive basisB point out the problems with thedevice C explain the research work for the device D comment on A swath Raman's prediction.(4)What can be a suitable title for the text?________A Lamps Are Powered by the Energy From the Cold Night SkyB A Generator Producing Electricity Has Been Applied in Many AreasC Scientists Have Made a Breakthrough in Harvesting Green EnergyD A Device Uses Energy From the Cold Night Sky to Produce Electricity.第二节(共1小题;每小题10分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.5. 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。

Anytime ' s marketing hadvworkeousehold namebefore it ' d even made a single sale.When the opening came, that day at noon, the Anytime website suddenly had a single field that read, “ What doyou want? 〞 All you had to do was type the words into that box, and then specify how quickly you wanted your item delivered: within one, ten, or twenty-four hours.Bloggers were the first to test the service.And their reviews were glowing.Within weeks, Anytime had become a part of daily life.Nobody used other delivery sites or the post anymore as Anytime was much cheaper and faster.Chris still wondered what exactly Anytime was.He tried to find out who owned the company, but it was registered in a small country that did not require such information to be made public.He did find some interesting facts, though.Anyone who challenged the company, it seemed, met with serious trouble.A government official critical of Anytime for avoiding tax was forced to leave his position after news stories suddenly appeared claiming he was dishonest.The head of another company taking Anytime to court died in a car accident just days before the case was to begin.Chris began making a list of all the people who had something terrible happen to them after opposing or criticising Anytime.By lunch, he had more than one hundred examples.Something was definitely wrong.Chris worked on his list the rest of the day, emailing people who could provide more information and looking through newspaper records.After working through the night, an exhausted Chris finally fell asleep at his desk at 4 a .m..When he woke a few hours later, there was a message flashing on his computer screen: " Stop making trouble.Chris smiled.He had no intention of stopping now that he knew he was on the right track.2 8.What was on the front of the card sent to Chris Lin?A.An invitation to a company opening. ।।B.The website address of a new company.C.The words “ Anytime: Starting tomorrow ".D.The words a Anything you want, anytime you need it ".2 9.Why did the company choose to send the cards to many news reporters?A.Because it didn ' t have enough money for traditional advertising.B.Because it wanted to attract the reporters as customers.C.So the reporters would write stories about the new company.D.So people would find the new company interesting.3 0.What did Chris ' s research suggest about Anytime ?A.It may be very dangerous.B.Its popularity would soon decrease.C.It was doing business all over the world.D.It was being widely criticised by journalists.3 1.How did Chris feel at the end of the story?A.Scared that he would get into trouble.B.Confident that he would find the truth.C.Nervous about what the company would do.D.Satisfied that he had discovered the company' s secret.DConnecting with people has become so much easier with advancing technology.Tasks that once required a postage stamp or carrier pigeon are now as simple as tapping a name or even a face on your screen, and you connected.But also easier is unconsciously getting caught up in a dilemma by violating certain new rules for communicating.

Sammy says."At first,I was a bit apprehensive about it…getting that close to some very big animals.But they were very chilled(温驯)once you had them controlled alongside the boat.They'd just sit there,you'd attached the tracking devices,you ‘d take the line off and they'd just swim off really calmly,it was pretty amazing to see.They're just absolutely beautiful animals."Why does Sammy do her research?______A.To find some scientific data.B.To develop others' interest in tiger sharks.C.To find out how tiger sharks move.D.To further understand tiger sharks' moving.What does Sammy think of studying?______A.It's of great benefit.B.It's a tiresome job.C.It's filled with challenges.D.It's simple and calls for little efforts.What does the underlined word "apprehensive" in the last paragraph mean?______ A.Curious.B.Doubtful.C.FearfulD.Enthusiastic.Which can be the best title for the text?______A.How do tiger sharks find food?B.Why do tiger sharks dive?C.What can we do to protect tiger sharks?D.What roles do tiger sharks play in the food chain?30.It started with a woman,who wasn't doing anything particularly awful,but I just feltunhappy when I looked at the photo.I couldn't even tell you what exactly the picture was,but I just remember the feeling that came over me:annoyance and unhappiness.It happened again a few weeks later with a photo of a college student that I remember as not being very nice.Suddenly,I decided that I'd had enough."I don't need to follow these people on social media.Why am I flooding my life with people that make meunhappy?" I unfollowed her.And then I began to rid my social media platforms of people who didn't make me happy.Working as a social media strategist,1 find it almost impossible to give up all social media platforms,but it also didn't need to make me unhappy whenever I was on itthroughout the day.Besides,I like social media when it's a healthy space for me.So instead of the extreme choice of giving it all up,I decided I'd fill my feed with thepeople and things that improved my mood.Being selective about the people you surround yourself with is important for your health and self-care.When I realized how much better I felt when I didn't see that blogger post video that made me roll my eyes or a picture that brought me to tears,I knew I had made the right decision.Now,my feed fills me with joy when I see my friends post about their photos and blogs from which I draw inspiration.Social media doesn't have to be the terrible placeeveryone says it is,but you have to be willing to make the first move to make it that way .How did the author feel when seeing a photo of college student?______ A.EmbarrassedB.ConfusedC.UpsetD.ConcernedHow did the author deal with people on social media?______A.She did her best to make friends with themB.She wiped out those who made her unhappy.C.She warned them of the danger on Social mediaD.She felt sorry for not staying in touch with them.What might be advised to do on social media according too the text?______A.Follow people who post happy things.B.Learn to enjoy your friends' posts.C.Make comments after your friends posts.D.Share happiness and sorrow with your friends.What's the main idea of the text?______A.Changing my attitude benefits me greatly.B.It's time to limit our time spent on social media.C.People always makes me unhappy on social media.D.Deleting people from social media changes my feeling.五、短文改错(本大题共1小题,共10.0分)31.文中共有10处语言错误,每句中最多有两处,每处错误涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改.增加:在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧),并在其下面写出该加的词.删除:把多余的词用斜线( \ )划掉.修改:在错的词下划一横线,并在该词下面写出修改后的词.注意:1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词;2.只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分.My friend Lilly and I were on the way back to home from school when we saw a boy f all off his bicycles.

英语_2020届安徽省名校高考模拟英语试题含答案

英语_2020届安徽省名校高考模拟英语试题含答案

2020届安徽省名校高考模拟英语试题一、阅读选择1. Great Activities for Nature LoversHikingOne of the easiest and most accessible ways to get close to nature is by setting out on a good old fashioned hike. Hiking generally doesn't require any fancy equipment or special skills, just a piece of map and a thirst for adventure. This activity can be as relaxing as you make it.Backcountry CampingWhy limit yourself to just a day hike when you can have a full weekend for a longer adventure? Backcountry camping involves packing your tent, sleeping gear ,food, and water on your back to set up camp in a remote location. I you’re an experienced hiker and camper ,this is an excellent way to test your survival skills and explore the wilderness.Mountain and Road BikingUnlike long hikes through the woods , biking allows you to cover more ground and travel farther in nature. Mountain biking typically involves riding up and down steep slopes , between trees , and over rocks. If this sounds too intense or your tires aren't suited for rugged terrain( 地形) , consider taking a road bike on paved trails through forest preserves or along country roads.GardeningContrary to popular belief, you don't have to travel beyond your own backyard to experience the beauty of nature every day. If your personality is less adventurous or your mobility restricted, consider planting a garden to grow your own vegetables , fruit , herbs, or flowers.

I'm not someone who has many secrets, because I'm a terrible liar. But there is one huge secret that I kept for years—I failed my driving test. I had never failed a test before, and had never even come close. Driving made me anxious, but my parents told me I had to. They signed me up for driving lessons. I had gotten a perfect score for my written permit exam, but getting behind the wheel was a different story.But when October 30th rolled around, my pride set in. I wanted to be like everyone else atmy school, showing off the brand new license they'd gotten. Looking back on that special day, I can't remember if I was nervous. What I do remember is starting the test, pausing at a stop sign after a few seconds, and being asked by the instructor to pull over. I had received an auto-fail since my pause was indeed a pause and not a real stop. I wasn't upset that I was leaving without a license, but I was scared everyone would know that I had failed. So when I got to class, I told everyone I didn't want to take the test on my birthday.One Friday a month later, I went to the test spot again and passed. Later that night I drove for the first time by myself, which brought to me an amazing feeling I've never experienced—but still, I couldn't imagine ever telling anyone the truth. So I didn't. It wasn't until midway through college that I came clean. It turned out plenty of my college friends had failed too! And I gathered enough courage to speak the fact out. Yes, I had also failed.Now I realize failure and imperfection are two things everyone has to experience, without which one couldn't make a true man.(1)What can we learn about Matthew?A He was a slow learner of driving.B He relied heavily on his parents.C He was afraid of taking exams.D He was bored with telling lies.(2)Why did the instructor ask Matthew to pull over?A To put an end to his test.B To check his parking skills.C To give him a second chance.D To show him a better way of driving.(3)What made Matthew feel extremely worried after his first attempt?A Failing to get a driving license.B Missing his birthday celebration.C Making his parents disappointed.D Losing face before his classmates.(4)What did Matthew learn from his own experience?A Honesty is the best policy.B Failure is a way to grow up.C Truth stands the test of time.D Imperfection is another form of perfection.3.Smoking in your own home in Thailand may now be considered a crime, if the smoke is considered harmful to other people in the house.The new law, Family Protection and Development Promotion Act, was initiated(启动)by the Ministry of Social Development and Human Security and was announced in the Royal Gazette on May 22, 2019.The law aims at curbing smoking at home which might be hazardous for others' health residing under the same roof. In that case, it will be considered as "domestic violence". The new law came into force on August 20.According to the center for research and knowledge management for tobacco control, at the Faculty of Medical Science of Mahidol University, there are about 4.9 million households where one or more family members smoke.An average of 10.3 million people have unwittingly(不知不觉地)become passive smokers because they've been breathing in smoke at home. Scientific studies show that passive smokers are at greater risk of being affected by cancer.Of 75 child patients from houses where smoking is practiced, 76% of them were found to have nicotine traces in their urine, with 43% of them having nicotine content exceeding permissible levels.Smoking at home also "may lead to physical or emotional violence" because of aggressiveness when there is a lack of smoking, and might as well ruin relationships between smokers and non-smoker family members.According to the new law, anyone who thinks they are affected by domestic smoking can report to officials concerned so that inspectors will be sent to investigate and take legal action against the smokers.Once convicted, the court may order a person to receive treatment to quit smoking in an attempt to protect the person's family.In February in 2019, Thailand had banned smoking at six of its airports along with a ban in public places.(1)What is the fact about the new law in Thailand?A It makes it clear that smoking at home is a crime.B It's a law on protecting the health of non-smokers.C It was drafted and adopted by the royal family.D It classifies smoking as a form of domestic violence.(2)Which of the following can replace the underlined word "curbing" in Paragraph 3?A Treating.B Changing.C Improving.D Controlling.(3)What is NOT the evil consequence of smoking at home?A It may increase the risk of cancer in passive smokers.B It will probably cause physical or emotional violence.C It will make the smokers become more aggressive.D It may lead to disharmony in family relations.(4)What conclusion can we draw from the passage?A Smoking is illegal anywhere in Thailand.B Smokers are less likely to develop cancer than non-smokers.C People who smoke at home in Thailand will be sent toprison. D Thailand is committed to creating a smoke-free environment.4.We know that reading is good for children. Now, a new study suggests that just being around books has its benefits. A team of researchers in Australia finds that growing up with a large library at home improves literacy(读写能力), number-sense, and even technological skills in later life. It appeared in the journal Social Science Research.The researchers were exploring the advantages of scholarly culture. They were interested in a curious observation that some call the "radiation effect". "Radiation effect is a situation where children grow up around books, but they don't read books. But somehow books benefit them, even though they don't read them as much as their parents wish them to," said Joanna Sikora, a sociologist in Australia. Joanna and her colleagues analyzed data collected between 2011 and 2015 by the Organization for Economic Development. The survey assessed the literacy, numeracy(计算能力), and technological competency of more than 160,000 adults from 31 countries. And it included a question about how many booksparticipants had in their homes during adolescence. "What we were able to make clear was that people growing up around books had better literacy, numeracy and digital problem-solving skills than people who had fewer books growing up but had similar education levels, similar jobs, and even similar adult habits in terms of reading or working at various numeracy-improving activities," she said.In fact, teens who only made it through high school but were raised in a bookish environment did as well in adulthood as college graduates who grew up in a house without books. Now, how might mere exposure lead to intellectual improvement? "If we grow up in a house, in a home where parents enjoy books, where books are given as birthday presents and valued, this is something that becomes a part of our identity and gives us this lifelong urge to always come close to books and read more than we would."So keep shelves piled with books. Your kids will not only be grateful, they'll be more likely to be able to spell "grateful" correctly as well.(1)What's "radiation effect" according to the text?A The terrible effect of radiation on the persons and things.B The good influence of the bookish environment on adolescents.C The beneficial effect of reading books on adolescents.D The bad effect of the environment without books on adolescents.(2)How does the exposure to books improve intellect?A Books bring a sense of identity and eagerness to read more.B Books help to provide a chance to come close to society.C Books are always given to adolescents as valuable presents.D Books will offer the teens an urge to make great achievements.(3)What's the author's attitude towards bookish environment?A Opposed.B Neutral.C Indifferent.D Supportive.(4)What's the best title for the text?A Reading More Helps Improve Children's AbilitiesB Reading at Home Brings Children Many AdvantagesC Growing Up Around Books Benefits Children a LotD Creating a Bookish Environment for Children Is of Much Importance二、七选五5. 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。

安徽省合肥市2020年高考英语一模试卷含答案

高考英语一模试卷题号I II III IV V总分得分一、阅读理解(本大题共15小题,共30.0分)AThe following 4 famous paintings-from Jan van Eyck's portrait to Pablo Picasso's masterpiece-have stood the test of time.The Amolfini PortraitJan van Eyck's Amolfini Portrait,an oil painting on wood produced in 1434,in which a man and a woman hold hands with a window behind him and a bed behind her,is undoubtedly one of the masterpieces in the National Gallery,London.This painting is as visually interesting as it is famed.It is also an informative document on fifteenth-century society,through van Eyck's heavy use of symbolism-while husbands went out to engage in business,wives concerned themselves with domestic duties.The Starry NightVincent van Gogh painted The Starry Night,oil on canvas (帆布),a moderately abstract landscape painting of an expressive night sky over a small hillside village,during his12-month stay at the mental hospital near Saint - Remy - de - Provence,France between 1889 and 1890.When the Museum of Modem Art in New York City purchased the painting from a private collector in 1941,it was not well known,but it has since become one of van Gogh's most famous works.The HarvestersThe Harvesters is an oil painting on wood completed by Pieter Bruegel the Elder in 1565.It depicts the harvest time which most commonly occurred within the months of August and September.Nicolaes Jonghelinck,a merchant banker and art collector from Antwerp,commissioned this painting.The painting has been at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City since 1919.GuernicaGuernica,a large black-and-white oil painting,was painted by the Cubist Spanish painter,Pablo Picasso in 1937.The title 'Guernica' refers to the city that was bombed by Nazi planes during the Spanish Civil War.The painting depicts the horrors of war and as a result,has come to be an anti-war symbol and a reminder of the tragedies of war.Today,the painting is housed at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia in Madrid.1.Which of the following paintings was produced earliest?______A. Guernica.B. The Harvesters.C. The Starry Night.D. The Amolfini Portrait.2.Who created the painting describing the harvest seasons?______A. Pieter Bruegelthe Elder.B. Vincent van Gogh.C. Jan van Eyck.D. Pablo Picasso.3.What do we know about the painting The Starry Night?______A. It was painted on wood in oils.B. It described the painter's life in hospital.C. It wasn't widely recognized before 1941.D. It was given away to the museum by a collector.BAdventure-seeker Emma broke her ankle when she fell awkwardly while climbing a rock and spent a week in hospital waiting for an operation on her foot.When she was sent home to recover under strict instructions not to bear any weight,she became so fearful of crutches (拐杖)that she didn't move for three weeks."I tried crutches but I kept falling over and injuring myself.So I literally just stayed on the sofa all day," says Emma.She was gutted at the thought of missing the Wolf Run-a quarterly event that she hasn't missed since 2014."If you complete four Wolf Runs in a year,one in each season,you get Alpha Wolf status," explains Emma."This year was going to be my fifth in a row as an Alpha Wolf and I was really upset that I'd lose my status." So she was willing to try anything to get through the course-even with her injured ankle."I was telling my friend that I was going to cancel,and he persuaded me to give it a go.Having something to aim for really kept me going." Emma completed the run wearing an iWALK2.0,which is a medically-approved device and it basically functions like a hi-tech artificial leg,allowing users to walk freely.I decided to get one and it completely changed my recovery.I could move around the house and start getting out and about again,which had a real impact on my mental well-being."On the day of the race,Emma was nervous but the sound of people cheering her on kept her motivated.Emma made it over the finish line in just under six hours and clocked up her 23 rd Wolf Run in five years." It was an incredible day and my determination to finish combined with the support I received along the way kept me going," says Emma.4.Why was Emma frightened to use a crutch?______A. She was afraid of recovering slowly.B. She was warned not to move around.C. She just had an operation on her foot.D.

Pretty cheerful.6.What actually made Emma take part in the race?______A. Her new hi-tech artificial leg.B. Her fear of letting her friend down.C. Her strong desire to achieve her ambition.D. Her complete recovery from the operation.7.Which of the following best describes Emma?______A. Strong-willed.B. Supportive.C. Creative.D. Humorous.CErik Kobayashi-Solomon spent a day with Dr.Paul Gauthier,a plant physiologist specializing in vertical farming research and came away with several important ideas about vertical farming.Humans have 12,000 years of experience growing food,but only a generation or so worth of experience growing crops indoors.We are still progressing up the technology learning curve (学习曲线).What's more,traditional farming techniques are based on conditions that are not applicable to vertical farming.Therefore,without taking time to understand the science,vertical farming is not likely to be able to live up to its implied promises.The cost of powering LED grow lights is one of the biggest problems a vertical farm must overcome.Dr.Louis Albright at Cornell has characterized vertical farms as " pie-in-the-sky" businesses.He famously calculates,for instance,that the cost of a loaf of bread would be $ 24 if farmed indoors-the cost is too high.Gauthier acknowledges that energy prices are high but points out that scientific work has shown that only about 6% of available sunlight is used in crop photosynthesis (光合作用),so there may be ways of growing the same plants with less light.Gauthier also points out that while energy costs are a bit high,vertical farming does create high efficiencies in other areas.Water usage may be significantly reduced because the same water can be recycled time and again.Fertilizer use can be greatly reduced and pesticides for pest control are unnecessary.It's clear that vertical farming offers real value to society.The future is probably mixed.In some environments--the Middle East,for instance--a move to vertical farming is a no-brainer.An indoor farm in Saudi Arabia,for instance,can use solar energy to power LEDs at low cost without shading out other farmland.In other geographies,though,the expense of establishing a facility places a high bar on growth and profitability.A large vertical fanning and equipment operation only started generating a small profit eight years into its nine - year life.8.What can we infer about vertical farming in Paragraph 2?______A. It will replace traditional farming one day.B. It relies on research of more basic science.C. It can be applicable on different conditions.D. It actually came into being 12,000 years ago.9.What does Dr.Albright think of vertical farms?______A. They use less light than traditional ones.B. They may seem very unlikely to succeed.C. They can overcome many problems in farming.D. They do not need any natural sunlight any longer.10.What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?______A. The ways of reducing costs of vertical fanning.B. The secrets of developing vertical farming.C. The recent trend of vertical farming.D. The benefits of vertical farming.11.Why is the example of "an indoor farm in Saudi Arabia" mentioned?______A. To show vertical fanning can work well in some places.B. To prove solar energy is vital for farming in Saudi Arabia.C. To confirm the expense of setting up a vertical farm is high.D. To argue vegetables do not need to be imported any longer.DResearchers discovered a hidden continent on Earth,but it's not Atlantis.They found it while reconstructing the evolution of Mediterranean region's complex geology,which rises with mountain ranges and dips with seas from Spain to Iran.The continent is called Greater Adria.It's the size of Greenland and it broke off from North Africa,only to be buried under Southern Europe about 140 million years ago.And chances are you've been there without even knowing it."Forget Atlantis,said Douwe,study author and professor at Utrecht University." Without realizing it,vast numbers of tourists spend their holiday each year on the lost continent of Greater Adria." This area is called Adria by geologists,so the researchers for this study refer to the previously undiscoveredcontinent as Greater Adria.Most of Greater Adria was underwater,covered by shallow seas,coral reefs and sediments (沉淀物).The sediments formed rocks and those rocks became mountain ranges in these areas:the Alps,the Apennines,the Balkans,Greece and Turkey.The researchers found that Greater Adria started to become its own continent about 240 million years ago.This isn't the first time a lost continent has been found.In January 2017,researchers announced the discovery of a lost continent left over from the supercontinent Gondwana,which began breaking apart 200 million years ago.The leftover piece,which was covered in lava (岩浆),is now under Mauritius,an island in the Indian Ocean.And in September 2017,a different research team found the lost continent of Zealandia through ocean drilling in the South Pacific.It's two-thirds of a mile beneath the sea.Greater Adria isn't the first lost continent to be found.But if research in past years shows anything,it likely won't be the last discovery.12.How did the researchers find Greater Adria?______A. They found it accidentally.B. They got inspired by the tales of Atlantis.C. They discovered it after years of seaching.D. They followed the steps of exploring mountain ranges.13.What do we know about Greater Adria?______A. It is hidden under the sea level.B. It is much smaller than Greenland.C. It has existed for about 240 million years.D. It has been known to many tourists before.14.Why are the discoveries mentioned in Paragraph 4?______A. To describe how the researchers explored continents.B. To show some other lost continents have been found.C. To prove they are closely related to Greater Adria.D. To explain the reason why Greater Adria got buried.15.What is the best title for the text?______A. Atlantis Discovered FinallyB. Undersea World ExploredC. A Hidden Mountain UndiscoveredD. A Lost Continent Found Under Europe二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Easy Ways to Give Yourself a Fresh Start It doesn't need to be complicated or challenging to turn a fresh page on each new day.Whenever we mark a new year-by turning the calendar,returning to school or celebrating a holiday-we are looking for a fresh start.(1) But how?Here are some easy ways to connect with that feeling of starting fresh,whether it's a new year or simply a new day in our life.(2) This means you have realized what serves your life now and what can stay in your past.Or invest in a new pen and a new notebook.Having fresh supplies can stimulate even the common task of creating your to-do list.Moreover,you can learn something new by opening a book you've been expecting to read,searching a question that's been on your mind,enrolling in a class that motivates your interest.Of course you can simply ask a friend for a fresh idea about an issue.(3)Take a break from technology-for an hour,a day,or a week.(4) You should be able to put some space between yourself and digital routines.One reason we sometimes struggle to start fresh is that you get stuck reflecting on worrisome thoughts about the past,the future or even the present.(5) Allow these thoughts into your day only at a brief (30 minutes or less),specific time.The rest of the time,focus on what you are doing that*s new and positive.How do you give yourself that " fresh start" feeling?A.Electronic Products might not be serving you best.B.Newness or the freshness can guide us on a positive path.C.Limit your daily " worry time" and make an appointment with yourself.D.All of us enjoy newness,but what is it that leads to a sense of freshness?E.Realizing your past mistakes,you should move forward with enthusiasm.F.Increasing your knowledge on any topic means taking your mind into a fresh area.G.First,even letting go of a single box or bag of items can give you a refreshing sense.16.

able to liveup to its implied promises.传统的耕作技术是建立在不适用于垂直耕作的条件之上的,因此,如果不花时间去理解科学,垂直耕作就不可能实现其隐含的承诺.可知,垂直耕作的实现要依赖更多的科学研究,结合选项,故选B.2.B.细节理解题.根据文章第三段,He famously calculates,for instance,that the cost of a loaf of bread would be $ 24 if farmed indoors-the cost is too high.Gauthier acknowledges that energy prices are high but points out that scientific work has shown that only about 6% of available sunlight is used in crop photosynthesis (光合作用),so there may be ways of growing the same plants with less light.例如,他有一个著名的计算,如果在室内种植,一条面包的成本将是24美元,成本太高.Gauthier承认能源价格很高,但他指出,科学研究表明,只有约6%的可用阳光用于作物光合作用,因此可能有办法在较少的光线下种植相同的植物.可知,Dr.Albright 认为垂直耕作成功的可能性不是很大,结合选项,故选B.3.D.段落大意题.根据文章第四段,Gauthier also points out that while energy costs are a bit high,vertical farming does create high efficiencies in other areas.Water usage may be significantly reduced because the same water can be recycled time and again.Fertilizer use can be greatly reduced and pesticides for pest control are unnecessary.It's clear that vertical farming offers real value to society.Gauthier还指出,虽然能源成本有点高,但垂直耕作确实在其他地区创造了高效率.由于相同的水可以一次又一次地循环利用,因此用水可能会大大减少.化肥的使用可能会大大减少,杀虫剂也不必用于害虫防治.很明显,垂直耕作农业为社会提供了真正的价值.可知,第四段讲述了垂直耕作的益处,结合选项,故选D.4.A.推理判断题.根据文章最后一段,The future is probably mixed.In some environments--the Middle East,for instance--a move to vertical farming is a no-brainer.An indoor farm in Saudi Arabia,for instance,can use solar energy to power LEDs at low cost without shading out other farmland.未来可能是喜忧参半的.在某些环境中,例如中东,转向垂直农业是不需要考虑的.例如,沙特阿拉伯的一个室内农场可以使用太阳能以低成本为LED供电,而不会遮住其他农田.可知,提到沙提阿拉伯的例子是为了证明,垂直农业在某些地方是可以很好的运作的,结合选项,故选A.本文章主要讲述了垂直耕作的必要条件,并说明了其特点和益处.阅读理解题测试考生在阅读基础上的逻辑推理能力,要求考生根据文章所述事件的逻辑关系,对未说明的趋势或结局作出合理的推断;或根据作者所阐述的观点理论,对文章未涉及的现象、事例给以解释.考生首先要仔细阅读短文,完整了解信息,准确把握作者观点.12.【答案】【小题1】A【小题2】C【小题3】B【小题4】D【解析】1.A.细节理解题.根据文章第一段They

AWith its snow-covered mountains and a variety of wildlife, Yellow Stone National Park is one of the scenic treasures of the United States. Located primarily in Wyoming, the park hosts millions of visitors every year. If you plan to travel within the park, keep in mind advice from the National Park Service.Seasonal TravelTravel varies vastly from season to season. Roads are generally open in the summer except for cases of rock or mud slides, wild fires, accidents or road construction. Early snows in the fall can cause some roads to close temporarily. In the winter almost all roads are closed to motor vehicles, but snowmobiles and other snow vehicles with tracks are allowed. Roads begin to open for the spring by the latter part of April but can close if snowfall continues.Driving TimeGrand Loop is the main road through Yellowstone National Park; it passes by most of the major attractions. These include Old Faithful, Yellowstone Lake and the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone. The maximum speed limit on the Grand Loop is 45 miles per hour, but the speed limit drops during some of the winding and twisting sections of this narrow road. Allow yourself at least two days to fully travel the loop due to the size of the park and being sometimes stuck in heavy traffic.Safety AwarenessBuffalo(水牛)often block the roads in the park as they move through the fields. If a group is travelingacross the road you are on,you can either wait for them to pass or find an alternative route. If you get out of your vehicle, the National Park Service says to stay at least 25 yards from any buffalo (and 100 yards or more away from bears and wolves). Buffalo are particularly unpredictable and charge people at speeds up to 30 mph.You can take your bicycle on any public roads and routes designed for bikes, but bicycles are not allowed on the park roads which are narrow with few shoulders. Altitudes range from 5, 300 to 8, 860 feet. The National Park Service recommends cyclists wear helmets and noticeable clothing.1. What do we know about travelling in the Yellowstone Park?A. Roads will stay open in case of emergency.B. Traffic jam happens from time to time.C. The driving speed on the road can be 50 mph.D. Motor vehicles are allowed in the winter.2. What does the National Park Service suggest people do about safety?A. Stay inside the car throughout the travel.B. Get out of their vehicles when coming across the Buffalo.C. Wear the easy-to-see clothes while bicycling.D. Avoid bicycling on the public roads.3. From which is the text probably taken?A. A guidebook.B. A commercial advertisement.C. A research paper.D. A geography textbook.BMost adults firmly believe that as kids reach their teens, they start to take crazy risks that get them in trouble. Do teenagers simply love taking all risks much more than adults? A recent study suggests otherwise.Scientists designed a simple experiment involving 33 teenagers and three other age groups. In the experiment, the researchers tried to distinguish between two very different kinds of risk-taking. The first they called a willingness to take known risks (when the probability of winning is clear) and the second they called a willingness to take unknown risks (when the possibility of success is uncertain).The study offered participants the opportunity to play two kinds of games. They had the chance to winmoney, with one game offering a known risk and the other offering an unknown risk. On each round of the game, each participant had to choose between taking a sure $5 and known or unknown risks of winning a lot more. If on one particular round they had picked the $5 for sure choice, then they got $ 5. But if on that round they had chosen to take a risk, the rules of the game will determine whether or not they had won. If they did win, they went home with between $8 and $125. And, of course, if they lost, they went home with nothing.What the scientists found was really quite surprising. It turned out that the average teenager was very hesitant when risks were known—more careful than college students or parents-aged adults, and about as careful as grandparent-aged adults. This means that when the risks were known, teenagers were not risky in their behavior at all. Only when the risks were unclear did teenagers choose them more often than other groups. Under those kinds of conditions, they were much more willing to take a risk than any other group.So, what does all of this mean? The research suggests that adults should probably focus more energy on trying to educate teenagers about risks than limiting them. Teenagers who understand the risks associated with a decision are more likely to be careful in their behavior.4. This experiment was carried out byA. dividing the teens into three groupsB. comparing the reactions to different risksC. giving equal amount of awards to the participantsD. observing the emotional changes of the teenager5. When facing known risks, teenagers tended to be ________.A. ambitsB. cautiousC. anxiousD. curious6. Which group in the study were more likely to take unknown risks?A. Teenagers.B. College students.C. Parent-aged adults.D. Grandparent-aged adults.7. According to the study, parents should focus on ________.A. guaranteeing children to be carefulB. setting age limits on dangerous activitiesC. respecting teens to make their own choicesD. guiding teens to learn more about the effect of risksCTrees, some of the tallest in the world, towered above Hannah Griffiths and her colleagues each morning as they walked deep into the rainforest in the Maliau Basin in Borneo, where they had set up a set of experiments to look at the ecological effects of small creatures: termites (白蚁).Termites get a bum rap. They make headlines for chewing up billions of dollars of property each year in the U. S. And they are responsible for something like two percent of global carbon emissions, simply as a result of their huge populations and preference for chewing through carbonrich materials. A whole industry is aiming at killing them.But they play a key role in many natural ecosystems. Scientists have known for years that in tropical (热带的) forests, termites chew up fallen leaves and dead wood, keeping the fallen material under control and letting nutrients from the dead material back into the system to be used by other plants, insects, and animals. But they didn’t know exactly how impor tant the insects were in keeping the forest healthy and functional, so they removed termites from a particular spot in the forest and saw how it responded.As luck would have it, Hannah Griffiths and her colleagues started their experiment when the forest was hit by an extreme drought (干旱). During the non-drought years, they saw there wasn’t much difference between the normal plots and the ones where they’d removed the termites. But during the drought, the effects were marked. What they found was unexpected: in the termite-rich areas, the soil stayed slightly wet, more tree seedlings sprouted (抽芽), and the system was full of activity despite the long, hard dry spell.For Griffiths, it was only because they happened to study the drought that they could pick out the real importance of termi tes to the system, she points out. “And that rings alarm bells in my head,” she says, “because it makes me think, well what else don’t we know? If we start damaging biological communities, we don’t know what that will do.”8. Which of the following best ex plains “a bum rap” underlined in Paragraph 2?A. Unfair blame.B. Wide popularity.C. Public attention.D. Special preference.9. What have scientists learned about termites?A. They do serious harm to tropical rainforests.B. They contribute a lot to the ecosystem they live in.C. They act as food for other plants, insects and animals.D. They speed up the loss of nutrition in the rainforest.10. What can we infer from the finding of Griffiths experiment?A. Termites help rainforests survive climate change.B. Termites prefer drought years to non-drought ones.C. Termites benefit more from the forest during the drought.D. Termites enjoy eating tree seedlings during the drought.11. What does Griffiths tell us in the last paragraph?A. Termites are now in danger of extinction.B. Termites damage biological communities.C. We should think twice before damaging a species.D. We should study the drought to improve the system.DIf humans pump enough carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere, the stratocumulus clouds(层积云) could disappear, and the earth's temperature could climb sharply to heights not predicted in current climate models. It would burn the planet. That's the conclusion of a paper published in the journal Nature Geoscience and described in detail by Natalie Wolchover for Quanta Magazine.As Wolchover explained, clouds have long been one of the great uncertainties of climate models. Computer models that easily capture the complexity and detail of most climate systems just aren't powerful enough to predict worldwide changes in cloud behavior. But clouds are important. They reflect sunlight away from the earth's surface. And stratocumulus clouds are those white blankets you might have seen as you looked out the window of arm airplane, rolling out below you and hiding the ground Researchers suspect that certain sudden, past jumps in temperature may have been caused by changes to clouds like these.For the new research, scientists modeled just a small patch of sky using a supercomputer. They found that if carbon dioxide levels reach about 1, 200 parts per million(ppm) in the atmosphere, stratocumulus clouds break up. That's a very high carbon dioxide concentration. Right now, levels have climbed past 410 ppm--a dangerous change from 280 ppm before the Industrial Revolution.But humans put more and more CO2 into the atmosphere every year. If current trends continue, the earth could reach 1, 200 ppm within 100 to 150 years. This could happen if our society doesn't follow through on any of its commitments to reduce emissions(排放), Wolchover reported. And even if it does, theresult would be another 8 degrees Celsius of heat added to the global average, on top of the dangerous changes already underway due to greenhouse gases.That’s an enormous change, and it goes beyond predict ions of worldwide ice melt and catastrophic sea level rise. And, once the stratocumulus clouds are gone, Wolchover reported, they likely wouldn't reappear until atmospheric carbon dioxide levels dropped below where they are currently.There's still some uncertainty in the data. The 1, 200 ppm figure could change as scientists look into the issue further.12. What can we learn from paragraph 2?A. Most climate systems are not complex.B. Cloud behavior is uncertain and hard to predict.C. Temperature changes affect the stratocumulus clouds.D. The stratocumulus clouds protect planes from sunlight.13. How did the scientists study clouds in the new research?A. By measuring the sea level.B. By experimenting in a natural state.C. By comparing climate models.D. By computer modeling and analyzing.14. What does "it" refer to in paragraph 4?A. The atmosphere.B. The earth.C. Our society.D. The result.15. Which of the following statements would Wolchover most probably agree with?A. The effects of CO2 emissions have been fully assessed.B. The stratocumulus clouds won't return if they are gone.C. The breakup of stratocumulus clouds could result in catastrophes.D. Once CO2 level reaches 1, 200 ppm, stratocumulus clouds will go extinct.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。

Stan Lee, co﹣founder of the Marvel Universe(漫威宇宙) and co﹣creator of many of its most popular superheroes, died at the age of 95.Lee was born Stanley Martin Lieber in New York in 1992. As a son of working﹣class Jewish immigrants from Romania, times were hard and he lived with his family in a shabby single﹣bedroom apartment. After graduating from high school at 16, Lieber landed a job as an assistant at Timely Comics. By the early 1940s, he was a temporary editor for the company. It was at this time that he began using his pen name﹣﹣Stan Lee. In 1947, two years after returning from serving for the U.S. Army, Lee married his wife, Joan. The two began their 70﹣year marriage and had two children.In the late 1950s, DC Comics breathed new life into its classic superhero and experienced a significant success with its updated version of the Flash, and later with super﹣team the Justice League(正义联盟) of America.To compete against DC Comics, Lee was given the task of creating their own group of superheroes. In 1961, Timely Comics changed its name into Marvel Comics after Atlas Comics, and that November saw the debut(首次亮相) of the Fantastic Four. Lee's later famous and lasting creations of comic﹣book superheroes included Spider﹣Man, the Hulk, Thor, Iron Man and the X﹣men.Over the course of his career, Lee was an ________ of Marvel Comics. As a writer and editor and, at various points, both the publisher and vice president of Marvel Comics, Lee not only introduced interesting characters to the industry, but changed the way that comic books came together. He also created a cooperative workflow between writers and artists, which became known as the "Marvel Method". Lee received a National Medal of Arts in 2008 for his innovations that revolutionized (=completely changed) American comic books.(1)What do we know about Lee from paragraph 2?________A He served for the U.S. Army for two years.B He suffered from an unfortunate marriage.C He had a tough and struggling childhood.D He adopted his pen name at the age of 16..(2)What was the company called when Spider﹣Man was created?________A Timely Comics.B Marvel Comics.C Atlas Comics.D DC Comics..(3)What does the underlined word "icon" in the last paragraph?________A Theme.B Character.C Assistant.D Symbol..(4)What can be the best title for the text?________A Stan Lee, the Godfather of Marvel Comics.B The Development of Marvel Comics.C Stan Lee, a Superhero in Comic Books.D The Popular Superheroes of Marvel Comics.3. From the moment you open your eyes in the morning, you can feel sweat running down your body, even if you're barely moving at all. That's what most people in China felt like this summer. In fact, the entire northern hemisphere(半球)saw high temperatures in July.The Arctic Circle was no exception(例外). Temperatures in the city of Norilsk, which is in the Arctic Circle, reached a record high of 32 ℃, the Atlantic reported. Temperatures there are usu ally just 10 ℃at this time of the year.The heat wave in the Arctic is mainly a long﹣term result of global warming, according to the Chinese Academy of Meteorological Sciences. In fact, while the whole world is getting warmer, the Arctic is warming twice as fast as the rest of the planet. ________ is called the polar amplification effect(极地放大效应).The most direct impact of Arctic warming is the melting of Arctic ice. According to NASA, Arctic sea ice is now disappearing at a rate of 13.2 percent every 10 years. NASA said that if this continues, the Arctic will have no ice by the year 2040.This has put some Arctic animals, like polar bears, in danger. The ice that the bears live on has shrunk(缩小), the Toronto Star reported.Melting ice can also cause sea levels to rise in the long term. Since 1993, sea levels have risen at a rate of 3.2cm every 10 years, the Guardian reported. Some countries, such as Tuvalu(图瓦鲁) in the South Pacific Ocean and Maldives(马尔代夫) in the Indian Ocean, are at risk of disappearing into the sea.(1)Which of the following is true?________A Some countries in the ocean will disappear in 10 years.B China is the hottest in the northern hemisphere this summer.C The world gets warmer because of the heat wave in the Arctic.D The temperatures in Norilsk used to be lower than this summer..(2)What does the underlined word "this" in the third paragraph refer to?________A The heat wave in the Arctic.B The Arctic getting warm faster.C Getting warmer in the world.D The result of global warming..(3)What may be the result of the melting of Arctic ice?________A Sea levels rise in the long term.B The polar will become dangerous.C There will be an end of water shortage.D There will be no ice in the world by 2040..(4)What is the main idea of this passage?________A Arctic animals are in danger.B Heat hits Arctic.C The world became hotterthan before. D Some countries may disappear into the sea.4. We know that our smartphones are expertly﹣designed distraction devices that weaken our efforts to resist. But, we also know that resistance is important if we're ever going to find a workable middle ground with our phones ﹣ and a recent has served up another reason to strengthen our resolve.Here it is: when you pick up your phone while doing anything mentallychallenging, you're ________ your brain's ability to recharge and performance predictably decreases.That's the conclusion of a study that put roughly 400 college students to task solving challenging word puzzles. When they were about halfway through, the researchers allowed most of the students to take a break either using their phones, using a computer or reading a print circular. Other students were told to just keep on working without any sort of break.The results showed that the students who took a break with their phones were the worst performers of all the groups. They took 19% longer to finish the tasks and they solved 22% fewer word﹣problems than all the other groups combined. In fact, the cell﹣phonegroup's efficiency and processing speed was about the same as the group that took no break. The reason offered by the researchers isn't merely because digital devices are inherently engaging(迷人的), but because our smartphones are attention gates into so many other attention﹣catching areas, each pulling our mental energy in different directions.This research stresses that we ignored the energy reduction from using our smartphones, and that we were over﹣confident about what our brains can handle. We also overlooked the emotional connection we'd developed with our phones. It's no longer just a device. It's a companion."It is important to know the costs associated with reaching for this device during every spare minute, " Kurtzberg added.

高考英语一模试卷题号I II III IV V 总分得分一、阅读理解(本大题共15小题,共30.0分)AThe following 4 famous paintings-from Jan van Eyck's portrait to Pablo Picasso'smasterpiece-have stood the test of time.The Amolfini PortraitJan van Eyck's Amolfini Portrait,an oil painting on wood produced in 1434,in which a man and a woman hold hands with a window behind him and a bed behind her,is undoubtedly one of the masterpieces in the National Gallery,London.This painting is as visually interesting as it is famed.It is also an informative document on fifteenth-century society,through van Eyck's heavy use of symbolism-while husbands went out to engage in business,wives concerned themselves with domestic duties.The Starry NightVincent van Gogh painted The Starry Night,oil on canvas (帆布), a moderately abstract landscape painting of an expressive night sky over a small hillside village,during his12-month stay at the mental hospital near Saint - Remy - de - Provence,France between 1889 and 1890.When the Museum of Modem Art in New York City purchased the painting from a private collector in 1941,it was not well known,but it has since become one of van Gogh's most famous works.The HarvestersThe Harvesters is an oil painting on wood completed by Pieter Bruegel the Elder in 1565.It depicts the harvest time which most commonly occurred within the months of August and September.Nicolaes Jonghelinck, a merchant banker and art collector from Antwerp,commissioned this painting.The painting has been at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City since 1919.GuernicaGuernica, a large black-and-white oil painting,was painted by the Cubist Spanish painter,Pablo Picasso in 1937.The title 'Guernica' refers to the city that was bombed by Nazi planes during the Spanish Civil War.The painting depicts the horrors of war and as a result,has come to be an anti-war symbol and a reminder of the tragedies of war.Today,the painting is housed at the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia in Madrid.1.Which of the following paintings was produced earliest______A. Guernica.B. The Harvesters.C. The Starry Night.D. The Amolfini Portrait.2.Who created the painting describing the harvest seasons?______A. Pieter Bruegelthe Elder.B. Vincent van Gogh.C. Jan van Eyck.D. Pablo Picasso.3.What do we know about the painting The Starry Night?______A. It was painted on wood in oils.B. It described the painter's life in hospital.C. It wasn't widely recognized before 1941.D. It was given away to the museum by a collector.BAdventure-seeker Emma broke her ankle when she fell awkwardly while climbing a rock and spent a week in hospital waiting for an operation on her foot.When she was sent home to recover under strict instructions not to bear any weight,she became so fearful of crutches (拐杖)that she didn't move for three weeks."I tried crutches but I kept falling over and injuring myself.So I literally just stayed on the sofa all day," says Emma.She was gutted at the thought of missing the Wolf Run-a quarterly event that she hasn't missed since 2014."If you complete four Wolf Runs in a year,one in each season,you get Alpha Wolf status," explains Emma."This year was going to be my fifth in a row as an Alpha Wolf and I was really upset that I'd lose my status." So she was willing to try anything to get through the course-even with her injured ankle."I was telling my friend that I was going to cancel,and he persuaded me to give it a go.Having something to aim for really kept me going." Emma completed the run wearing an iWALK2.0,which is a medically-approved device and it basically functions like a hi-tech artificial leg,allowing users to walk freely.I decided to get one and it completely changed my recovery.I could move around the house and start getting out and about again,which had a real impact on my mental well-being."On the day of the race,Emma was nervous but the sound of people cheering her on kept her motivated.Emma made it over the finish line in just under six hours and clocked up her 23 rd Wolf Run in five years." It was an incredible day and my determination to finish combined with the support I received along the way kept me going," says Emma.4.Why was Emma frightened to use a crutch______A. She was afraid of recovering slowly.B. She was warned not to move around.C. She just had an operation on her foot.D. She often got injured when using one.5.What does the underlined word "gutted" mean in Paragraph 2______A. Extremely sad.B. A bit relieved.C. Very surprised.D. Pretty cheerful.6.What actually made Emma take part in the race______A. Her new hi-tech artificial leg.B. Her fear of letting her friend down.C. Her strong desire to achieve her ambition.D. Her complete recovery from the operation.7.Which of the following best describes Emma______A. Strong-willed.B. Supportive.C. Creative.D. Humorous.CErik Kobayashi-Solomon spent a day with Dr.Paul Gauthier, a plant physiologist specializing in vertical farming research and came away with several important ideas about vertical farming.Humans have 12,000 years of experience growing food,but only a generation or so worth of experience growing crops indoors.We are still progressing up the technology learning curve (学习曲线).What's more,traditional farming techniques are based on conditions that are not applicable to vertical farming.Therefore,without taking time to understand the science,vertical farming is not likely to be able to live up to its implied promises.The cost of powering LED grow lights is one of the biggest problems a vertical farm must overcome.Dr.Louis Albright at Cornell has characterized vertical farms as " pie-in-the-sky" businesses.He famously calculates,for instance,that the cost of a loaf of bread would be $ 24 if farmed indoors-the cost is too high.Gauthier acknowledges that energy prices are high but points out that scientific work has shown that only about 6% of available sunlight is used in crop photosynthesis (光合作用),so there may be ways of growing the same plants with less light.Gauthier also points out that while energy costs are a bit high,vertical farming does create high efficiencies in other areas.Water usage may be significantly reduced because the same water can be recycled time and again.Fertilizer use can be greatly reduced and pesticides for pest control are unnecessary.It's clear that vertical farming offers real value to society.The future is probably mixed.In some environments--the Middle East,for instance--a move to vertical farming is a no-brainer.An indoor farm in Saudi Arabia,for instance,can use solar energy to power LEDs at low cost without shading out other farmland.In other geographies,though,the expense of establishing a facility places a high bar on growth and profitability.A large vertical fanning and equipment operation only started generating a small profit eight years into its nine - year life.8.What can we infer about vertical farming in Paragraph 2______A. It will replace traditional farming one day.B. It relies on research of more basic science.C. It can be applicable on different conditions.D. It actually came into being 12,000 years ago.9.What does Dr.Albright think of vertical farms?______A. They use less light than traditional ones.B. They may seem very unlikely to succeed.C. They can overcome many problems in farming.D. They do not need any natural sunlight any longer.10.What is the fourth paragraph mainly about______A. The ways of reducing costs of vertical fanning.B. The secrets of developing vertical farming.C. The recent trend of vertical farming.D. The benefits of vertical farming.11.Why is the example of "an indoor farm in Saudi Arabia" mentioned______A. To show vertical fanning can work well in some places.B. To prove solar energy is vital for farming in Saudi Arabia.C. To confirm the expense of setting up a vertical farm is high.D. To argue vegetables do not need to be imported any longer.DResearchers discovered a hidden continent on Earth,but it's not Atlantis.They found it while reconstructing the evolution of Mediterranean region's complex geology,which rises with mountain ranges and dips with seas from Spain to Iran.The continent is called Greater Adria.It's the size of Greenland and it broke off from North Africa,only to be buried under Southern Europe about 140 million years ago.And chances are you've been there without even knowing it."Forget Atlantis,said Douwe,study author and professor at Utrecht University." Without realizing it,vast numbers of tourists spend their holiday each year on the lost continent of Greater Adria." This area is called Adria by geologists,so the researchers for this study refer to the previously undiscovered continent asGreater Adria.Most of Greater Adria was underwater,covered by shallow seas,coral reefs and sediments (沉淀物).The sediments formed rocks and those rocks became mountain ranges in these areas:the Alps,the Apennines,the Balkans,Greece and Turkey.The researchers found that Greater Adria started to become its own continent about 240 million years ago.This isn't the first time a lost continent has been found.In January 2017,researchers announced the discovery of a lost continent left over from the supercontinent Gondwana,which began breaking apart 200 million years ago.The leftover piece,which was covered in lava (岩浆),is now under Mauritius,an island in the Indian Ocean.And in September 2017,a different research team found the lost continent of Zealandia through ocean drilling in the South Pacific.It's two-thirds of a mile beneath the sea.Greater Adria isn't the first lost continent to be found.But if research in past years shows anything,it likely won't be the last discovery.12.How did the researchers find Greater Adria?______A. They found it accidentally.B. They got inspired by the tales of Atlantis.C. They discovered it after years of seaching.D. They followed the steps of exploring mountain ranges.13.What do we know about Greater Adria?______A. It is hidden under the sea level.B. It is much smaller than Greenland.C. It has existed for about 240 million years.D. It has been known to many tourists before.14.Why are the discoveries mentioned in Paragraph 4?______A. To describe how the researchers explored continents.B. To show some other lost continents have been found.C. To prove they are closely related to Greater Adria.D. To explain the reason why Greater Adria got buried.15.What is the best title for the text?______A. Atlantis Discovered FinallyB. Undersea World ExploredC. A Hidden Mountain UndiscoveredD. A Lost Continent Found Under Europe二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Easy Ways to Give Yourself a Fresh Start It doesn't need to be complicated or challenging to turn a fresh page on each new day.Whenever we mark a new year-by turning the calendar,returning to school or celebrating a holiday-we are looking for a fresh start.(1) But how?Here are some easy ways to connect with that feeling of starting fresh,whether it's a new year or simply a new day in our life.(2) This means you have realized what serves your life now and what can stay in your past.Or invest in a new pen and a new notebook.Having fresh supplies can stimulate even the common task of creating your to-do list.Moreover,you can learn something new by opening a book you've been expecting to read,searching a question that's been on your mind,enrolling in a class that motivates your interest.Of course you can simply ask a friend for a fresh idea about an issue.(3)Take a break from technology-for an hour,a day,or a week.(4) You should be able to put some space between yourself and digital routines.One reason we sometimes struggle to start fresh is that you get stuck reflecting on worrisomethoughts about the past,the future or even the present.(5) Allow these thoughts into your day only at a brief (30 minutes or less),specific time.The rest of the time,focus on what you are doing that*s new and positive.How do you give yourself that " fresh start" feeling?A.Electronic Products might not be serving you best.B.Newness or the freshness can guide us on a positive path.C.Limit your daily " worry time" and make an appointment with yourself.D.All of us enjoy newness,but what is it that leads to a sense of freshness?E.Realizing your past mistakes,you should move forward with enthusiasm.F.Increasing your knowledge on any topic means taking your mind into a fresh area.G.First,even letting go of a single box or bag of items can give you a refreshing sense.16.

more,traditional farming techniques are based on conditions that are not applicable to vertical farming.Therefore,without takingtime to understand the science,vertical farming is not likely to be able to live up to its implied promises.传统的耕作技术是建立在不适用于垂直耕作的条件之上的,因此,如果不花时间去理解科学,垂直耕作就不可能实现其隐含的承诺.可知,垂直耕作的实现要依赖更多的科学研究,结合选项,故选B.2.B.细节理解题.根据文章第三段,He famously calculates,for instance,that the cost of a loaf of bread would be $ 24 if farmed indoors-the cost is too high.Gauthier acknowledges that energy prices are high but points out that scientific work has shown that only about 6% of available sunlight is used in crop photosynthesis (光合作用),so there may be ways of growing the same plants with less light.例如,他有一个著名的计算,如果在室内种植,一条面包的成本将是24美元,成本太高.Gauthier承认能源价格很高,但他指出,科学研究表明,只有约6%的可用阳光用于作物光合作用,因此可能有办法在较少的光线下种植相同的植物.可知,Dr.Albright 认为垂直耕作成功的可能性不是很大,结合选项,故选B.3.D.段落大意题.根据文章第四段,Gauthier also points out that while energy costs are a bit high,vertical farming does create high efficiencies in other areas.Water usage may be significantly reduced because the same water can be recycled time and again.Fertilizer use can be greatly reduced and pesticides for pest control are unnecessary.It's clear that vertical farming offers real value to society.Gauthier还指出,虽然能源成本有点高,但垂直耕作确实在其他地区创造了高效率.由于相同的水可以一次又一次地循环利用,因此用水可能会大大减少.化肥的使用可能会大大减少,杀虫剂也不必用于害虫防治.很明显,垂直耕作农业为社会提供了真正的价值.可知,第四段讲述了垂直耕作的益处,结合选项,故选D.4.A.推理判断题.根据文章最后一段,The future is probably mixed.In some environments--the Middle East,for instance--a move to vertical farming is a no-brainer.An indoor farm in Saudi Arabia,for instance,can use solar energy to power LEDs at low cost without shading out other farmland.未来可能是喜忧参半的.在某些环境中,例如中东,转向垂直农业是不需要考虑的.例如,沙特阿拉伯的一个室内农场可以使用太阳能以低成本为LED供电,而不会遮住其他农田.可知,提到沙提阿拉伯的例子是为了证明,垂直农业在某些地方是可以很好的运作的,结合选项,故选A.本文章主要讲述了垂直耕作的必要条件,并说明了其特点和益处.阅读理解题测试考生在阅读基础上的逻辑推理能力,要求考生根据文章所述事件的逻辑关系,对未说明的趋势或结局作出合理的推断;或根据作者所阐述的观点理论,对文章未涉及的现象、事例给以解释.考生首先要仔细阅读短文,完整了解信息,准确把握作者观点.12.【答案】【小题1】A

years ago.研究人员发现,大阿德里亚大约在2.4亿年前开始成为自己的大陆.可知大阿德里亚它已经存在了大约2亿4000万年;故选C.3.B.细节理解题.根据文章第四段This isn't the first time a lost continent has been found.这不是第一次找到失落的大陆.可知第4段提到了这些发现以显示其他一些失落的大陆已经被发现;故选B.4.D.推理判断题.根据文章第一段They found it while reconstructing the evolution of Mediterranean region's complex geology,which rises with mountain ranges and dips with seas from Spain to

英语_2020年安徽省某校高考英语三模试卷含答案

2020年安徽省某校高考英语三模试卷第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共4小题;每小题6分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将选项涂黑.1. When film was first invented in the late 1800s and early 1900s, movie﹣goers could actually see images of far﹣away places, like China, and that fueled interest in thearea. Throughout history, many Chinese Americans are devoted in this area. Now, the back room of the Formosa Cafe looks like a museum that honors the works of Chinese Americans and their contributions to Hollywood.Chinese stereotypes(刻板印象)Stereotypes of the Chinese in America were strengthened by the otherness ofU. S. China towns in the late 1800s and early 1900s. There was an idea that the Chinese was the "yellow peril" , who you couldn't trust. And that resulted in the character called Fu Manchu. Fu Manchu was an evil character who wanted to destroy the western world. He appeared in movies and in a television series.In 1926, Charlie Chan, a Chinese investigator from Hawaii, appeared for the first time in a movie. This created a different, yet still problematic Asian stereotype."Yellow face" actorsCharlie Chan and Fu Manchu may have been Chinese characters, but the actors were usually white men made up to look like Asian. Actors Sidney Toler, Roland Winters and Ross Martin all played Charlie Chan. Yellow face meant they actually yellowed up their skin. White actors just played the lead characters in The Good Earth, a 1937 film about Chinese farmers. Asian actors had parts in the film, but they needed bankableactors, however, there were no Asian American bankable actors.China factorsOver the years, Asian and Chinese Americans did find work in Hollywood, and a few earned a star on the Hollywood Walk for Fame. Hollywood is also changing the way it presents the Chinese culture. As the biggest market for movies outside theU. S, Hollywood has been making films that will not offend movie﹣goers in China or the country's government. The industry has been careful not to show the Chinese as evil. Co﹣productions between Hollywood and Chinese companies put Chinese characters and China in a favorable or satisfactory way.(1)Why is the back room of the Formosa Caf6 mentioned?________A To show appreciation for Chinese American filmmakers.B To display the richness of Chinese American films.C To attract more customers to enjoy coffee in the FormosaCaf6. D To recommend a place to mover﹣goers to learn Chinese American films..(2)What can be known about Charlie Chan?________A He could be found in a TV series.B He was an actor bearing evilreputation. C He represented investigators from Hawaii. D He wasn't much appreciated by movie﹣goers then..(3)What can be concluded about Chinese American films?________A Chinese actors were preferred in casting Chinese roles.B They focused on evil Chinese eager to ruin America.C China factors are positively viewed inthem. D They have been introducing Chinese stereotypes.2. This is the colourful waste created by a Swedish city with a unique recycling system. Like many cities in Sweden, Eskilstuna has an impressive recycling record. It met the EU 2020 target of recycling 50% of waste many years ago. But almost everyone who lives here follows a strict recycling policy at home. People are expected to sort their household waste into seven separate categories, including food, textiles, cartons(纸板箱)and metal. But what really makes the system stand out is the bright colour code.The reason for this becomes clear at the city's recycling plant. The bags arrive all ________ up because they're collected altogether in a rush, once a fortnight from outside people's houses. But thanks to those bright colors, scanners can select the bags and separate them efficiently. The food waste in green bags is processed on site into a certain thick liquid to make burnable gas, which powers the city's buses. One of the benefits of this method of recycling is that there is less crosspollution, so more of the recycled waste can actually be used to make new things. Like the rest of Sweden, Eskilstuna is committed to sending zero waste from its citizens to landfill. Waste that cannot be recycled is burnt at a local plant to generate electricity. This reduces reliance on fossil fuels, but does create greenhouse gases. As countries around the world try to improve their recycling rates, some may look to Eskilstuna as an example to follow as long as they think they can persuade their citizens toget busy sorting at home.(1)What can we learn about Eskilstuna?________A It is flooded with colorful waste.B It is best﹣known for waste﹣recycling. C Waste there is painted into seven colors. D Rubbish recycling is handled seriously there..(2)What does the underlined word "jumbled" in paragraph 2 mean?________A Mixed together.B Collected orderly.C Sealed cautiously.D Piled purposefully..(3)What may the new recycle﹣system bring about?________A The increase in the efficiency of waste recycling.B The convenience to the citizensin waste dropping. C The avoidance of rubbish related environmentalproblems. D The decrease of profit for waste plants..(4)Where is this text most likely from?________A Parents.B In style.C Fortune.D The New York Times.3. Chocolates, syrup(糖浆), cream on top, many of the hot drinks we consume even more at this time of year certainly sound sugary, but just how much sugar they containmight come as a shock.The health campaign group Action on Sugar has found that Starbucks hot chocolate made with milk has almost 94 grams of sugar. That equals 23 teaspoons. At Caffe Nero, thesalted hot chocolate packs in almost 60 grams of sugar, about 15 teaspoons. And Casta's cream latte(拿铁)has 32 grams of sugar, that's 8 teaspoons.The drink makers won't have those details listed next to the price. If known, it would be quite alarming. That's how capitalism works. The capitalists have to get people addictedto certain things to keep selling it more. If told the amount of sugar contained, many would take hot drinks just as a treat not on a daily basis. Some drinks have actually reduced in sugar over the past few years, but many more haven't. The most sugary seasonal drink was from Starbucks with more than 14 teaspoons of sugar. Other companies like breakfast cereal manufacturers and yogurt manufacturers are reducing sugar. And so is softdrinks, yet the milk based drinks, milk shakes, hot chocolates and lattes just don't seem to have changed in the same way.And while some companies are actually being really responsible reducing theirsugar, some have actually increased that in the last two years which just seems ridiculous. Coffee chains do offer low﹣ calorie alternatives. But Action on Sugar are still calling for more tax on hot coffee drinks. Not much of a Christmas present for the coffee chains, but maybe a gift in the long term for our health.(1)What does the first two paragraphs mainly talk about?________A Consumers favor sugar contained hot drinks.B The amount of sugar in some hot drinks is frightening.C Famous hot drink makers prefer hot chocolateseries. D Cream latte is the signature hot drink for Starbucks..(2)What can we learn about hot drink makers?________A Most of them are trying to reduce sugar in certain drinks.B Chocolate and syrup are irreplaceable part of their products.C They won't show the consumer how much sugar a drink contains.D Four of them have been investigated by the health campaign group..(3)What's the writer's attitude toward the hot drink makers?________A Supportive.B Doubtful.C Objective.D Reserved..(4)How can the sugar﹣originated hot drink problem be eased?________A Taxes can be raised on hot drink makers like coffee chains.B More official groupslike Action on Sugar could be founded. C Sugar content can be labeled in place of the price for hot drinks. D Warnings can be given to those enjoying weekly hot drinks.4. Do some kinds of video games cause violence? Scientific studies do not suggest a link. But the idea that there is a link between violent video games and violent acts reappeared following the mass shooting in El Paso, Texas, last weekend. An online statement thought to be written by the El Paso gunman mentioned the video game "Call of Duty".On Monday, President Donald Trump said that " terrifying video games" contribute to a "glorification of violence''. American politicians have long made similarstatements. Benjamin Burroughs is a professor of media at the University of Las Vegas. He said that there is no linkage to gun violence, when mentioning video games. Burroughs pointed out that some studies show a short﹣term increase inaggressive thoughts and feelings after playing video games, but nothing that rises to the level of violence. "Plenty of gamers get upset when they lose or feel the game was'cheating', but it doesn't lead to violent outputs, " Burroughs stressed.In 2006, a small study by researchers at Indiana University found that teenagers who played violent video games showed higher levels of emotional arousal(激发)﹣﹣﹣strong emotions like anger or fear. The teenagers also showed less activity in the parts of the brain associated with the ability to plan, control and direct thoughts and behavior.Patrick Markey, the psychology professor, found in his research that men who commit severe acts of violence actually play violent video games less than the averagemale. Another study by Markey and other researchers showed that violence tends to go down when a new violent movie or video game comes out. One possible explanation is that people are at home playing the game or in theaters watching the movie. Markey believes that video games might excite people, but they do not change who people are. "It is like going to see a sad movie, " Markey said of playing video games. "It might make you cry but it doesn't make you clinically depressed, " he said.(1)Why is the mass shooting in El Paso, Texas mentioned in the first paragraph?________A To show the necessity of scientific studies.B To support the writer's own viewpoint.C To show the seriousness of violent acts.D To serve as evidence for the assumption..(2)What are the similarities between Benjamin Burroughs and Patrick Markey?________ A B Both acknowledge video game aroused emotional change. C Both present their ideas through doing research. D Both worry about the potential dangers caused by video games..(3)What can be learned about the research in 2006?________A Teenagers tested in it become more emotional.B Its findings set alarm for young video game players.C Teenagers mentioned in it mainly come fromIndiana. D Its researchers are strongly for banning video games..(4)What is the best title for the text?________A Violence﹣a by﹣product of video games.B Video games﹣the cause of violence or not.C Video games﹣the promoter of the mass shoot.D Violence﹣a threat for game players or not.第二节(共1小题;每小题10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.5. Empathy(共情),the ability to understand other people, has dropped sharply among college students over the past 10 years.(1)_______Turn on the TV, and you're showed with news and reality shows full of people, fighting, competing, and generally treating one another with no respect. Human beings learn by example and most of the examples onTV are anything but empathetic.(2)_______Having relationships with other people is an important part of being human and having empathy is decisive to it. Researchers have also found that the empathetic teenagers are more likely to have high self﹣respect. Besides, empathy can be a cure for loneliness,sadness, anxiety and fear.(3)_______Many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things they expect from new managers.(4)_______Apparently, empathy is a kind of "emotional intelligence" that will help us achieve it.Then,(5)_______For starters, let down your guard and really listen to others. One doesn't develop empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of talking. To really develop empathy, you'd better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital join a club or a team that has a diverse membership, have a " sharing circle" with your family, or spend time caring for pets at an animal shelter.A.How can we take advantage of empathy?B.Empathy is even an indication of a good leader.C.What's the best way to improve empathy?D.There are good reasons not to follow those bad examples.E.Today, people spend more time alone rather than join clubs.F.That might be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time.G.Academics are vital but without emotional intelligence, you won't be successful in life.第三部分英语知识运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节完形填空(共20题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.6.

On a recent trip to the island of Newfoundland, Canada, my husband asked our talkative cab driver what made him most proud to be a native."Our generosity and hospitality(好客), " he replied in a strong local accent. "If your car breaks down in the middle of nowhere, someone will stop to help. People here are kind like that." His answer rang in my mind during that ride with my husband and teenage kids, as we headed out to explore on the first day of our vacation.Little did I know we were about to experience some of that remarkable Newfoundland kindness for ourselves. We met Alma that same morning at the start of a long hike. Ourteenagers hurried ahead, and as we walked behind, admiring the scenery, two women in sunglasses and summer hiking equipment stopped. They'd heard us discussing different routes, and then asked if we'd like suggestions. They looked to be in their 40s, and were both enthusiastic to share their local expertise.We listened eagerly, taking mental notes, until one of the women asked, "You have a car, right? " I explained that there were no cars available during our week on the island, so we had to rely on cabs instead."Oh no, " she said, "you need a car." And then, as casually as if offering a piece of chewing gum(口香糖), she said, "Take mine!" My husband and I just smiled in disbelief, ________."Why not? " she insisted. "You need a car to get to know all these places.""But you don't even know us, " I said."That doesn't matter, " she continued with absolute determination.Surprised, I looked over at her friend, who shrugged and said, "That's Alma."Forty minutes of talking later, my family climbed into Alma's car. We spent the rest of our vacation discovering different areas of this beautiful island. But it wasn't the groups of whales we saw, or the vast areas of woodland, that made this place somemorable. Instead, it was the act of kindness from a complete stranger that made us realize how special Newfoundland really was.Next year, there's no doubt where we'll be taking our summer vacation. Who knows what act of kindness we'll meet then?(1)What did the cab driver take pride in as a native?________A Their kindness and enthusiasm.B Their cheap service andfriendliness. C Their selflessness and determination. D Their rich experience and local knowledge..(2)What does the underlined word "dumbfounded" in Paragraph 5 probably mean?________A Annoyed.B Satisfied.C Shocked.D Embarrassed..(3)What impressed the author most during her stay in Newfoundland?________A The local culture of the island.B The answer from the cab driver.C The beautiful scenery of the island.D The help from an enthusiastic stranger..(4)What can we infer about the author from the last paragraph?________A She expects to visit Newfoundland again.B She hasn't decided where to go next year yet.C She is looking forward to meeting Alma once more.D She also wants to be kind to others during the vacation.3. The majority of people on this planet live through ego(自我意识). They feel that they are themselves special, apart from the crowd in some way. Also, they aren't willing to acknowledge other people's special﹣ness, and feel that they are threatened by the people who are different from them.Besides, there are many different 'exclusive clubs' which people join under certainconditions, like Colour of skin clubs, Sports clubs, and so on. What many people fail to acknowledge, however, is that there is in fact only one club The Human Being club.Our diversity is what makes life interesting. I love watching people who dance or create music beautifully, draw out emotions through their acting skills, or are accomplished athletes. I also understand myself well enough to know that I don't have enough passionfor any of these things to make the sacrifices necessary to come close to their level of excellence.I believe that it is human nature to communicate and cooperate with people who are like us, but what a lot of people see as 'like us' is narrowed down to very superficial(表面)characteristics. I remember my Jamaican friend's sister being most put out. She had been the only black woman in her company and then another black woman was employed. They were automatically put to work together because they were both black and obviously had alot in common ﹣ so thought the employer! The truth was that they had nothing in common, didn't come from the same country and actively disliked each other. It's always a mistake to assume anything on a purely superficial basis.I have many friends who are members of a variety of the above mentioned clubs and each one of them has taught me so much about different cultures and life styles, and has enriched my life in the process. I encourage anyone to strike up a conversation with someone who doesn't look like them ﹣ you might be surprised at exactly how much you have in common.(1)According to the first two paragraphs people tend to________.A feel they are specialB feel they are lack of egoC admit others arespecial D admit only one club exist.(2)How is the Paragraph 3 mainly developed?________A By analyzing causes.B By setting an example.C By giving adescription. D By making comparisons..(3)The author mentioned his Jamaican friend's sister to show________.A black women have a lot in common indeedB it is human nature to cooperate with peopleC people understand "like us" in a narrow wayD people often make mistakes in judging others.(4)What does the author advise people to do in the last paragraph?________A To enrich their own life.B To join an exclusive club.C To talk to different people.D To experience different life.4. A new keyboard can tell whether you are its owner. The keyboard records information about the typing pattern and sends it to a computer program. The program then checks to see if the typing pattern and sends it to a computer program. The program then checks to see if the pattern matches the right user, If not, an alarm sounds, and the computer locksthe typist out. It locks out anyone else, even if than person knows password. What's more, this device needs no batteries. It harvests all the person knows your password. What's more, this device needs no batteries. It harvests all the energy it needs from the action of your typing. Besides, the keyboard is also self﹣cleaning and the keysare free of damage from water, oil and dirt.The keys of the new keyboard are made of the same inexpensive plastic that might be found on any other standard keyboard. But instead of being smooth, the keys have millions of tiny plastic nanowires(纳米线)on their surface area to every key, increasing the gffective contact area between the plastics and fingers. This ensures that there's enough power to run the keyboard as someone types.Liming Dai, a scientist, did not work on the new keyboard, but he thinks the design could be important in getting better performance from a variety of devices. "It could also be applied to a touch screen, for instance, " Dai says. "Then smartphones and notepads could harvest energy from the action of someone typing or drawing.""Future work might make the keyboard even more useful, " Dai adds. "A later design might build tiny capacitors(电容器)onto the nanowires, " he suggests. Capacitors are little devices that temporarily store electric charges. Those might then LEDs to light a Keyboard in the dark.Zhonglin Wang is a co﹣designer of the new keyboard. His team has build a working model of the keyboard. "If a company decides to fund(投资)its production, this keyboard could be in stores in as little as two years, " says Wang.(1)How does the new keyboard tell whether you are its owner?________A By matching the typing pattern to the right user.B By sending alarms to a computer program.C By checking the right user's passwords.D By recording information about the typing pattern..(2)Why are there many nanowires on the surface of the keys?________A Toincrease the effective contact area.B To improve the speed of typing.C To make the keys smooth.D To help produce power..(3)What's Dai's attitude to the new keyboard?________A UnconcernedB DoubtfulC PositiveD Critical..(4)What is the best title for the text?________A A New Keyboard Made of NanowiresB A New Keyboard Entirely Owned byyou C A New Keyboard's Future. D A New Keyboard Powered by Typing.二、七选五根据短文内容,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.5.Simple ways to improve your written EnglishLots of people think it is really difficult to improve their written English.

At Caddo Lake State ParkB. At Lake PlacidC. At Olympic National ParkD. At the Twin Lakes2.If three people share one room in Lake Placid Lodge,how much will they pay?A. ﹩60B. ﹩120C. ﹩140D. ﹩3603.Which of the following is difficult to reserve?A. Cottages at Lafitte's Landing Guest QuartersB. Cabins at Lake Placid LodgeC. Deluxe CabinsD. Roosevelt Fireplace CabinsBGrowing up,I thought math class was something to be endured,not enjoyed.I disliked memorizing formulas(公式)and taking tests,all for the dull goal of getting a good grade.One of my teachers told my mother that I was "slow".But my problem wasn't with math itself.In fact,when a topic seemed particularly interesting,I would go to the library and read more about it.By high school,no one told me that I could become a professional mathematician.What I wanted to do then was to play college football.My ambition was to get an athletic scholarship to attend a Big Ten school.The chances of that happening were very low.But that didn't stop my coaches from encouraging me to believe I could reach my goal,and preparing and pushing me to work for it.They made video tapes of my performances and sent them to college coaches around the country.In the end, a Big Ten school,Penn State,did offer me a scholarship.I wish math teachers were more like football coaches.Students are affected by more than just the quality of a lesson plan.They also respond to the passion of their teachers and the engagement of their peers,and they seek a sense of purpose.They benefit from specific instructions and constant feedback(反馈).Until I got to college,I didn't really know what mathematics was.I still thought of it as laborious (耗时费力的)calculations.Then my professor handed me a book and suggested that I think about a particular problem.It wasn't easy,but it was fascinating.My professor kept giving me problems,and I kept pursuing them,even though I couldn't always solve them immediately.The mathematical research I was doing had little in common with what I did in my high school classrooms.Instead,it was closer to the math and logic puzzles I did on my own as a boy.It gave me that same sense of wonder and curiosity,and it rewarded creativity.I am now a Ph.D candidate in mathematics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.4.Why did the writer think math class in school was "something to be endured" before enteringcollege?A. Because he wasn't interested in math.B. Because his math teachers didn't care to push him.C. Because he was too smart and talented for math class.D.

Interest is the best teacherB. Be the best-you can make itC. Math,taught like footballD. Once your teacher,always your teacherCYou have probably read about robots replacing human labor as a new era of automation takes root in one industry after another.But a new report suggests humans are not the only ones who might lose their jobs.In New Zealand,farmers are using drones(无人机)to herd and monitor cows and sheep,taking up a position that highly intelligent dogs have held for more than a century.The robots have not replaced the dogs entirely,Radio New Zealand reports,but they have appropriated(盗用)oneof the animal's most powerful tools:barking.The DJI Mavic Enterprise,a ﹩3,500 drone favoredby farmers,has a feature that lets the machine record sounds and play them over a loudspeaker,giving the machine the ability to act as the dogs.Corey Lambeth,a shepherd on a farm,told RNZ the machines are surprisingly effective."That's the one thing I've noticed when you're moving cows that the old cows stand up to the dogs,but with the drones,they've never done that," he said,noting the drones move cows faster,with less stress,than the dogs do.The drones come in handy for more than just herding(放牧)cows and sheep.The robots allow farmers to monitor their land from afar,monitoring water and feed levels and checking on the animals' health without disturbing them.Jason Rentoul told RNZ that a two-hour herding job that used to require two people and two teams of dogs could be accomplished in 45 minutes using a single drone."Being a hilly farm where a lot of stuff is done on foot,the drones really saved a lot of man hours," he said.For now,farmers say,there is still a need for herding dogs,primarily because they have a longer life span than drones,can work in bad weather and do not require an electrical socket every few hours to recharge.8.What is the main advantage of the drones over herding dogs?______A. The drones can take up a job that the dogs hardly do well any longer.B. The drones can frighten the old cows which are not afraid of the dogs.C. The drones can finish a herding job more efficiently than the dogs.D. The drones can work on a hilly farm and extreme weather while the dogs can't.9.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?______A. Herding dogs will gradually lose their position on the farmland.B. The drones can only copy the dogs' barking with the current technology.C. The drones are multi-functional and leave the animals undisturbed.D. The market for the DJI Mavic Enterprise is pretty small because of its high price.10.According to the passage,why can't the drones replace the dogs entirely?______A. Because the drones can't bark as loudly as the dogs do.B. Because cows are not used to seeing the drones.C. Because the drones are much more expensive than the animal.D. Because the drones' power is limited and they need charging from time to time.11.Whatistheauthor'sattitudetowards the drones in the passage?______A. supportiveB. objectiveC. criticalD. doubtfulDRecently I rolled into a local restaurant to try an Impossible Burger,an all-plant patty(人造肉饼)invented by Impossible Foods.It's well known for having an strangely chewy(有咀嚼感),even bloody,meat-like quality,a surprising verisimilitude(逼真)that has made it "perhaps the country's most famous burger," as New York magazine wrote.One bite into its wonderful,smoky taste and,damn,I was convinced.This is good news,because the time has come to consume fake meat.In the fight against climate change,meat replacement is something we can try.A University of Oxford study recently found that,to keep global warming below 2 degrees this century,we need to be eating 75 percent less beef and 90 percent less pork.However,diets are culturally enshrined,so changing them will be hard.It isn't easy to replace 75 to 90 percent of beef and pork with fake meat.The first taste of an Impossible Burger-a moment when low expectations work a powerful magic in the product's favor-is one thing.But how do you keep meat-eaters asking for more after their sixth,and their 26th?To get to true mass adoption,fake meat will need to compete favorably with the real thing on multiple fronts.Impossible Foods' goal is to drive the price of its product below that of Safeway's 80/20 hamburger meat,at which point people will simply vote with their wallets.The new industry also wants to improve on animal flesh in various ways.Fake meat has an advantage over traditional meat because "you won't need to refrigerate it" cofounder Niko Koffeman says.Plus,custom(定制的)production could improve choice."You could have very soft and tender meat for elderly people," Koffeman adds."You could have a tailored meat for whatever you need." You can tell the world is shifting this way,because the ranchers(牧场主)are nervous.Last year,the US Cattlemen's Association asked the government to define "meat" as a product "coming directly from animals." That anxiety-and the power of the science driving it-goes to show that this grand shift isn't impossible.12.According to passage,the author was convinced by the Impossible Burger because ______ .A. it has a special taste that is different from normal ones.B. it contains all non-meat materials that taste like meat.C. more vegetables are used as main materials for the burger.D. one bite of this burger can provide people with the energy needed for a whole day.13.What does the author mean by saying "Diets are culturally enshrined"?A. That people think their diet is the best in the world.B. That people are unwilling to go against their culture by changing their diets.C. That people's preference for food is linked to the food choice available to them.D. That people's eating habits are consistently observed and closely connected with theirculture.14.Which of the following statements is true about the advantages that fake meat will have to beatover traditional meat?A. Fake meat will not be necessarily stored in a refrigerator.B. The price of fake meat will be just one-fourth of traditional meat's.C. Fake meat will win over older people thanks to its tender and soft taste.D. Fake meat will own a taste that is not found in traditional meat.15.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Meat must come from animals.B. The world will probably embrace the idea of fake meat.C. The ranchers are suffering economic loss due to fake meat.D. The definition of meat has been changed because of fake meat.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Do you think studying in a different country is something that sounds very exciting?Certainly,it is a new experience,which brings the opportunity of discovering fascinating things and a feeling of freedom.(1) You will experience culture shock.Evidently,at least four essential stages of culture-shock adjustment occur.The first stage is called "the honeymoon".In this stage,you feel excitement about living in a different place,and everything seems to be marvelous.(2)Eventually,however,the second stage of culture shock appears.This is the "hostility stage".(3) You become tired of many things about the new culture.Moreover,people don't treat you like a guest anymore.Everything that seemed to be so wonderful at first is now awful,and everything makes you feel distressed and tired.Then you come to the third stage called "recovery".You start feeling more positive,and you try to develop comprehension of everything you don't understand.The whole situation starts to become more favorable.(4)The last stage of culture shock is called "adjustment".(5) The things that initially made you feel uncomfortable or strange are now things that you understand.Now you feel comfortable;you have adjusted to the new culture.A.Actually,culture shock is something you cannot avoid when studying in a foreign country.B.You have reached a point where you feel good because you have learned enough to understand the new culture.C.You like everything,and everybody seems to be so nice to you.D.You recover from the symptoms of the first two stages.E.In spite of these advantages,however,there are also some challenges you will encounter.F.However,when you have completely adjusted to a new culture you can more fully enjoy it.G.You begin to notice that not everything is as good as you had originally thought it was.16.

英语_安徽省某校2020届高考仿真模拟(一)英语试题含答案

安徽省某校2020届高考仿真模拟(一)英语试题一、阅读选择1.People living in sub﹣Saharan countries are now able to test whether they may have contracted the novel coronavirus using a new mobile application service.The self﹣assessment service, rolled out on Star Times ON app by Chinese digital TV provider Star Times Group, offers African users practical tips on how to protect themselves fr om COVID﹣19 in multiple languages﹣French, English, Portuguese, and Swahili.It is available in 45 countries in the region.The service, co﹣developed by the Institute for Artificial Intelligence and School of Clinical Medicine of Tsinghua University, aims to help the public know more about the virus.It has been tested by top Chinese health experts.Users can access the self﹣assessment service on the front page of Star Times On.After answering several questions, such as on health conditions and recent travel history, users will get an evaluation result indicating the risk level of infection, as well as corresponding health suggestions.The service, initially rolled out in China on Feb 1, has been used on trial by more than 10 million users in 19 countries.People in other regions can download the Star Times On app by scanning the QR code and then clicking on the section of the "COVID﹣19 Self﹣Assessment System"on the page.(1)What is the new app service aimed at?________A Evaluating the risks of infecting COVID﹣19.B Confirming whether one has infected the virus.C Warning people of potential risks of traveling.D Informing people of increased death number..(2)How can the app users get the assessment results?________A By scanning the QR code.B By completing a questionaire.C By giving health suggestions.D By consulting top health experts.2. People as far away as South Africa have called Melody Pugh in Washington D. C. to help them find a beloved family member. The country’s only licensed and bonded “pet detective”, this 58- year-old former police officer is an expert on thinking like a dog or cat.It all started in April 1998 when her beloved kitty, Norman, was stolen from the car after arriving at the vet’s office. Pugh searched for Norman for 95 days, quitting her job because the search became all-consuming, and during that time she found 27 other lost pets. That's when she discovered she had a nose for finding clues --- a paw print here, a broken spider web there.While there are other pet finders, Pugh is the only person in the U. S. registered as a licensed pet detective 一 and there's a big difference. "Pet finders may make posters and phone calls, but they won't actively track your pet or get personally involved because theyaren’t bonded and can’t afford to get sued(起诉),” says Pugh, who has never been sued. She was able to obtain a Private investigator's license from the State of Washington in 2001 because of her background in law enforcement.Pugh has returned more than 1,000 dogs and cats to their homes in almost every state nationwide. Nearly two million companion animals are stolen each year, often right from their owner's yard, and then sold to research laboratories, dog-fighting rings, or puppy mills. (1)What do we know about Melody Pugh from paragraph 1?A She is a caring vet.B She is good at finding pets.C She comes from South Africa.D She works as a police officer.(2)When did Pugh find her gift for finding clues?A After she lost 27 pets.B The time she arrived at the vets.C 95 days before she found Norman.D When she was searching for her cat.(3)What's the difference between Pugh and other pet finders?A She tracks the lost pets.B She makes posters and phone calls.C She has never been accused.D She is a licensed pet investigator.(4)Which of the following best describes Pugh?A Demanding.B Devoted.C Stubborn.D Tough.3. Recent findings have shown that our appetite and food intake are influenced by a large number of factors besides our biological need for energy, including our eating environment and our perception (感知) of the food in front of us. A new study suggested that our short﹣term memory may also play a role in appetite. Several hours after a meal, people's hunger levels were predicted not by how much they'd eaten but rather by how much food they'd seen in front of them ﹣ in other words, how much they remembered eating.This difference suggests the memory of our previous meal may have a bigger influence on our appetite than the actual size of the meal, says Jeffrey M. Brunstrom, a professor of experimental psychology at the University of Bristol."Hunger isn't controlled merely by the physical characteristics of a recent meal. We have identified an independent role for memory for that meal, " Brunstrom says. "This shows that the relationship between hunger and food intake is more complex than we thought." These findings ________ earlier research that suggests our perceptions of food can sometimes trick our body's response to the food itself. In a 2016 study, forinstance, people who drank the same 380﹣calorie milkshake on two separate occasions produced different levels of hunger﹣related hormones (荷尔蒙), depending on whether the shake's label said it contained 620 or 140 calories. Moreover, the participants reported feeling more full when they thought they'd consumed a higher﹣calorie shake.(1)What affects our appetite according to the new study?________A How much we remember eating.B What time we eat our last meal.C How much we eat our last meal.D What ingredients the food contains..(2)The underlined word "echo" in the last paragraph means________ in Chinese.A 暗示B 反映C 印证D 改善.(3)What is the main idea of the text?________A Good eating habits contribute to our health.B Eating speed often affects our food digestion.C Psychological factors influence our hunger levels.D Our biological need for energy determines our food intake.4. Almost every community has some form of rules and some way of enforcing them.So why do we have rules, and what makes people follow them?Studies have suggested that the reason we don't like rule﹣breaking is because fairness is programmed into our brains.Scientists have found that the brain reacts in a particular way when we feel we are being treated unfairly.A fair situation makes us feel comfortable and even happy, but unfairness causes our brains to respond with negative feelings.The study found that ________ a so happened when subjects saw others being treated unfairly.They concluded that fairness is one of basic human needs.Arriving at a feeling of fairness means considering different, often conflicting, points of view.Regardless of the disagreement, people almost always need to compromise.But it can be dificult to arrive at a compromise when there are conflicting interests.This is why communities have rules that everyone must follow.Social controls are an important factor in set tng and following rules.They influence the way we be have, and can be internal(内在的) or external.Internal controls come from within and are based on our values and fears.Most of us don't steal, for example, because we believe that theft is unfair and wrong.We also don't want to disappoint our family and friends.In other words, our internal controls keep us from behaving in ways that cause conflict.External controls include rewards and punishments.Rewards, such as job promotions and praise, are designed to encourage people to be have and actin the interest of the whole community.Punishments, such as public embarrassment, fines, and even imprisonment can prevent people from acting against the community's best interests.People need their communities to function smoothly.If there were no rules, most people would probably still be have positively.However, there would always be a minority who would not.This is why a society without rules is unlikely to exist.(1)What does the underlined word "this" in paragraph 2 refer to?________A A program in human brains.B A comfortable situation.C The response with bad feelings.D The requirement off fairness..(2)Why do communities have rules?________A To punish illegal activities.B To prevent disagreement.C To promote fairness.D To meet various demands..(3)Which of the following is an example of internal control?________A Take exams honestly because cheating is shamefulB Park in the right place so as not to get a parking ticket.C Pay the electricity bill on time in order not to get a late fee.D Cooperate with your classmates to win a prize for your class..(4)What is the best title for this passage?________A Living by the rulesB Why communities need rulesC Reaching acompromise D How fairness functions.二、七选五5. When you underline and add notes to a text, when you ask yourself questions about its contents, you are establishing your understanding of what you are reading.(1)_______. A summary is a record or account of main points of a text. It forces a reader to understand the general idea of a piece rather than to just scan through each word and sentence written.To summarize is to condense (压缩)a text to its main points and to do so in your own words. To include every detail is neither necessary nor desirable.(2)_______﹣ the main idea and its necessary supporting points, which in the original passage may have been mixed with less important material.(3)_______. They are not the same thing. An analysis is a discussion of ideas,techniques, and/or meaning in a text. A summary, on the other hand, does not require you to respond to the ideas in a text.If a text is organized in a linear (线性的)fashion, you may be able to write a summary simply by writing the major points in your words from the beginning of the text to the end. However, you should not assume that this will always be the case.(4)_______. They may not state the thesis or main idea immediately at the beginning, but rather build up to it slowly, and they may introduce a point of development in one place and then return to it later in the text.(5)_______.A.They are not shortened textsB.Different writers give different ideasC.Not all writers use such a straightforward structureD.Instead, you should only cover the most important infomationE.In these cases, you should reconstruct the text in an organized wayF.Many students make the mistake of confusing summary with analysisG.When you write a summary, you are showing your understanding of it三、完形填空6.

A joke? Something illegal? Anytime’s marketing had worked – it was a household name before it’d even made a single sale.When the opening came, that day at noon, the Anytime website suddenly had a single field that read, “What do you want?” All you had to do was type the words into that box, and then specify how quickly you wanted your item delivered: within one, ten, or twenty-four hours.Bloggers were the first to test the service.And their reviews were glowing.Within weeks, Anytime had become a part of daily life.Nobody used other delivery sites or the post anymore as Anytime was much cheaper and faster.Chris still wondered what exactly Anytime was.He tried to find out who owned the company, but it was registered in a small country that did not require such information to be made public.He did find some interesting facts, though.Anyone who challenged the company, it seemed, met with serious trouble.A government official critical of Anytime for avoiding tax was forced to leave his position after news stories suddenly appeared claiming he was dishonest.The head of another company taking Anytime to court died in a car accident just days before the case was to begin.Chris began making a list of all the people who had something terrible happen to them after opposing or criticising Anytime.By lunch, he had more than one hundred examples.Something was definitely wrong.Chris worked on his list the rest of the day, emailing people who could provide more information and looking through newspaper records.After working through the night, an exhausted Chris finally fell asleep at his desk at 4 a .m..When he woke a few hours later, there was a message flashing on his computer screen: “Stop making trouble.” Chris smiled.He had no intention of stopping now that he knew he was on the right track.2 8.What was on the front of the card sent to Chris Lin?A.An invitation to a company opening.B.The website address of a new company.C.The words “ Anytime: Starting tomorrow”.D.The words “Anything you want, anytime you need it”.2 9.Why did the company choose to send the cards to many news reporters?A.Because it didn’t have enough money for traditional advertising.B.Because it wanted

the story?A.Scared that he would get into trouble.B.Confident that he would find the truth.C.Nervous about what the company would do.D.Satisfied that he had discovered the company’s secret.DConnecting with people has become so much easier with advancing technology.Tasks that once required a postage stamp or carrier pigeon are now as simple as tapping a name or even a face on your screen, and you’re connected.But also easier is unconsciously getting caught up in a dilemma by violating certain new rules for communicating.A big one for some: Don’t call until you’ve texted to confirm it’s OK to call.But that’s just the beginning.“I’m usually pretty mild and not much bothers me,” said Mark Angielle, a 29-year-old office manager from White Plains, New York.But the one thing that he hates more than anything else in life is the terrible one-word message —“K.” “At the very least reply with, Got it.” he said “At least give me a few words here.You’re not that busy.”There are hundreds, perhaps even thousands, of others who have taken Lo social media to express their distaste for people who don’t follow the unwritten rules of digital communication.“These rules are simply a new display of a phenomenon we’ve seen in the past,” said James Ivory, professor of communication a Virginia Tech.In the same way that generations and small groups of friends have their own slang and customs, internet culture has given birth to technology-dependent beings that have their own unique set of routine.But not everyone gets the point.Unlike language, digital communication can be filled with ambiguous clues(线索、迹象) that the person on the other end of the call, text or email may or may not easily understand.“As soon as people aren’t talking face to face, the first thing that gets lost is some of the richness of the body language,” Ivory said, “People immediately fill that gap by using emoji(表情符号) to sum up a feeling in seconds.“There's great potential for danger,” Ivory warned.“What's considered polite in one form might be inappropriate or rude in another occasion.”3 2.What can you infer about Mark from Paragraph 2?A.He is a businessman with a bad temper.B.He complains about social manners.C.He can’t bear one- word messages.D.He dislike a busy business life.3 3.According to the text, which of the following breaks the rules for communicating?A.John says “I got it.” to his boss face to face.B.Jim calls Bill without confirming in advance.C.Mary texts Lily to make sure if she can call her.D.Jack sends “Thanks a lot” to his business friends.3 4.Why may people misunderstand each other during digital communication?A.Emoji cannot sum up feelings.B.People use their own slang and customs.C.There are large quantities of written rules.D.People gets wrong messages without clear clues.3 5.What are people expected to do after reading tie passage?A.To obey their own digital communication rules.B.To be aware of rules during digital communication.C.To use advancing technology even with disadvantages.D.To keep pace with digital communication development.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。
