2021届黑龙江省实验中学高三下学期2月月考英语试卷及答案
2020-2021学年辽宁省实验中学高三英语月考试卷及答案
2020-2021学年辽宁省实验中学高三英语月考试卷及答案第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AIt was a weeknight and one of my twin daughters marched into the room, waving a book she'd finished. “Dad, why are books with science in them always about boys?” she asked.I told her that simply wasn't true; there were loads of great science fictions with girls in them. She agreed, but argued that in those stories it was the boys who were doing science, and the girls were justalong for the ride. My other daughter took her sister's side and challenged me to give an example.This left me in a difficult position. I could either go through our library to point out some wonderful examples of female-led science fictions, or just admit they were right and remain in my comfortable chair.I've been asked several times how I came up with the idea forA Problematic Paradoxand my answer is always the same: it came to me in a moment of inspiration. I like that answer because it's simple and makes me seem very creative. The fact that this explanation is not true bothers me from time to time. Here's the truth: the story wasn't my idea. It was my daughters who suggested I write something for them that had a girl doing science.My daughters were at an age when many young women turn away from STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math), believing those areas of study unfriendly or out-of-the-norm for girls. I also read about how important role models can be to young people. It's one thing to tell a person they can do something, but seeing someone like them doing that thing can be more powerful.So, I kept two guidelines for the book in mind: First, the story had to be fun for anyone, because it's as important for boys to understand that science is for everyone. Second, I wanted the main character, Nikola, to be imperfect. She should be someone with shortcomings as we all have. I think this not only makes a story more interesting to read, but also helps make it clear that the most extraordinary things can be done by ordinary people.1. What does the underlined phrase “along for the ride” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Entering a bike race.B. Offering vital help.C. Doing unimportant things.D. Playing the leading role.2. What do we know about the bookA Problematic Paradox1?A. Its main character is perfect.B. It is a female-led science fiction.C. It is intended to appeal to girls only.D. Its idea comes from the author's inspiration.3. Which of the following best describes the author's book?A. Serious and abstract.B. Simple and practical.C. Creative and well-organized.D. Inspiring and interesting.BA year ago I received a full scholarship to attend the University of San Francisco. All of my hard work paid off. My mom had spent a lot on my attending a private high school, so I made sure to push myself: I volunteered, took part in various clubs, and graduated with honors. I was so excited to start a new part of my life.Soon enough, the big day came, but it wasn't like what I had thought. The first two weeks were the most difficult days of my entire life. Every night I would cry myself to sleep. I was missing my family, my home and everything in my hometown so much and I didn’t know how to deal with my broken heart.To distract myself, I threw myself into my studies. I also found a ton of jobs. In any free time, I started forcing myself to go to the gym. I wanted to keep every part of my day busy so I wouldn’t think about how lonely I felt. Soon after, I began to control my eating, considering it another solution to my homesickness. But soon there was something wrong with me.Finally, I went to see a doctor. When the doctor told me I had no choice but to take time away from school, I started to fear. How could I stop? School was what I was best at. “I’m not so bad,” I thought in my head. But the result was that I was taken to hospital again a month later and my mother camewoefully. I had to take a semester off from school, and go to the treatment center near my home.If there are girls who are suffering similarly, I hope you know that there is hope and that you should have a positive attitude towards life. Though you may feel alone, there are so many people who can understand your struggle. That’s why I want to share my story.4. Why did the author push herself during high school?A. She wanted to attend the University of San Francisco.B. It cost too much to study in a private school.C. Her parents controlled much of her life.D. Her family put her under pressure,5. What can we know about the author in the first two weeks?A. She couldn't fall asleep because of pressure.B. She couldn't pay attention to her study.C. She couldn't deal with her homesickness.D. She couldn't catch up with others.6. What does the underlined word “woefully” in paragraph 4 mean?A. Sadly.B. Surprisingly.C. Curiously.D. Happily.7. What is the author's purpose in writing this text?A. To look back on her past life.B. To increase her own confidence.C. To express appreciation to her mother.D. To encourage other girls like her to be positive.CIf you’ve ever had a dog, you know just how deep a connection you can develop with “man’s best friend”. But a dog has a much shorter life span — about 12 to 15 years long — than humans, which means every dog owner has to go through the heartbreaking moment when their loving pet passes away.Why not make a clone of that dog then? This is the solution offered by a South Korean company, Sooam Biotech Research Foundation. The company has successfully cloned at least 400 dogs, mostly for US customers, ever since it pioneered the technique in 2005. Now, Sooam Biotech is planning to introduce their business toUKdog owners, offering them dogs that look just like their lost ones.Meanwhile, another dog is selected to supply an egg.Researchers then replace the DNA in the egg with that from the skin cell and implant the egg into the womb (子宫) of a female dog. The egg grows into a puppy over the following two months. To clone a dog, researchers first need to take a skin cell from a living dog or one that has just died.The whole process takes less than a day, but it comes at a shockingly high price — around £63,000 (614,000 yuan). But if you can’t afford it now, you can also save the cells in a laboratory and access them at a later date. Just like identical twins of humans, they share the exact same DNA but there will still be small differences between them. “The spots on a Dalmatian clone will be different, for example,” Insung Hwang, head of Sooam Biotech, toldThe Guardian. However, as magical as cloning might sound, there is no guarantee that the cloned dog will be a perfect replica of the original one.Dog owners will also have to accept the fact that personality is not “clone-able”. Apart from genes, personality is also determined by upbringing and environment, which are both “random elements [that] cloning technologies simply cannot overcome”, Professor Tom Kirkwood atNewcastle University,UK, toldThe Telegraph.Perhaps bringing our dogs back with cloning is not the best way to remember them after all.Kirkwood, a dog owner himself, pointed out: “An important aspect of our relationship with them is coming to terms with the pain of letting go.”8. According to the article, Sooam Biotech Research Foundation is ______.A. working on plans to help dog owners enjoy their pets longerB. offering a way to help dogs give birth to more puppiesC. providing a service that will make copies of pet dogsD. introducing a completely new technique to clone dogs9. Which of the following statements about dog cloning is TRUE according to the article?A. Dog cloning technology hadn’t been put into practice until recently.B. Dog cloning is very expensive and usually takes several months to complete.C. Dog cloning is very popular among US andUKpet owners.D. Cloned dogs might develop different habits and characteristics even though they look very similar.10. Which of the following shows the correct order of the dog cloning process?a. an egg is taken from another dogb. a skin cell is taken from the pet dog and saved in a laboratoryc. the egg is placed in the womb of a female dogd. the DNA of the egg is replaced by the DNA from the skin celle. the egg grows into a puppy in two monthsA. acbde.B. adbce.C. bacde.D. badce.11. We can learn from the article thatKirkwood______ dog cloning.A. disapproves ofB. supportsC. is afraid ofD. is curious aboutDIvrea is a town in the Piedmont province of northern Italy. It is known for its localcarnival(狂欢节)organized in February.The main part of the carnival is the famous Battle of the Oranges (La battaglia delle arance). The Battle includes nine teams who throw oranges at each other during three carnival days – Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.Oranges were not always used in the battle. In the middle ages people used beans. Twice a year the local feudal lord gave a pot of beans to the poor families who, as sign of rebellion, threw them out of their homes. Later beans became part of carnival as sort of “ammunition” for throwing at people passing by.It is still not known why exactly people started using oranges. It is believed that the origin for this tradition is in the mid 19th century. The legend says that local girls, standing on balconies, started to throw some oranges, together with confetti,lupins(白羽扇豆)and flowers, onto the parade carriages. The girls actually wanted to drawattention of boysin the carriages. Boys “answered” by throwing some objects back at girls. Little battle started that way.Battle of the Oranges got strict rules after the World War II. The battles are organized on town's squares. The battles are fought between teams in carriages (symbolizing local the guards of localtyrant(恶霸)) and the teams walking beside those carriages (symbolizing rebellious people of Ivrea).Oranges for the event are brought from the island of Sicily. The oranges used are of low quality, not suitable for humans. About 270,000 kilograms of oranges are used each year.The carnival ends with a silent march on the night of “Fat Tuesday”. The Carnival "general" says goodbye to everyone with the phrase "See you next Fat Thursday at 1 p.m."Special prizes are awarded to three best foot teams, three carriages drawn by two horses and three carriages drawn by four horses. Different elements are judged like for example throwing ability, fair play or decoration of carriages.12. The word "ammunition" (paragraph 3) is closest in meaning to________.A. decorationB. bulletsC. advertisementD. presents13. In Battle of the Oranges, the teams walking beside carriages act as ________.A. the Carnival generalB. the local feudal lordC. the rebellious people of IvreaD. the guards of local tyrant(暴君)14. Which of the following statements about Battle of the Oranges is NOT true?A. In the middle ages, people threw beans out of homes as a sign of rebellion.B. Girls throw oranges towards carriages in the parade to attract the attention of boys inside.C. Tons of oranges are used every year to hold the festival.D. People started to throw oranges because they are of low quality and not suitable to eat.15. What is this passage mainly about?A. A traditional activity in an Italian carnivalB. The origin of Battle of the OrangeC. How people enjoy themselves in the Orange CarnivalD. The rules of activities in carnivals in Italy第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

It is considered the cultural center of Bali, where you will discover the art and spirit ofBaliand learn about Balinese religion through paintings, dance, and other art forms. You could drink a beer while watching a local band perform, but most people come here for the cultural appreciation.Nusa LembonganThis tiny island off the coast of Bali is where many people miss their journey plans, but it is a must-see, It is the perfect place to stay for a couple of nights, The roads are not good, but the island itself is so beautiful and quiet.SanurSanur is an especially relaxing beach town. It's close to the airport and Kuta. It's also the starting place to explore Nusa Lembongan.KutaThebeachofKutais great for surfing. It is crowded and you won't get far without someone trying to get you to rent a surfboard or buy something. The main town is a mixture of market stands and shopping malls containing the biggest brands, from Zara to Ralph Lauren. The familiarity of the western style shops and restaurants won't give anyone too much of a culture shock.1. Which place are you probably advised to experience Balinese culture?A. Nusa Lembongan.B. Sanur.C. Ubud.D. Kuta.2. What is special about Kuta?A. It is a beach town near the airport.B. It has a convenient transportation means on it.C. It is a shopping center and famous for surfing.D. It is a place where you can learn Balinese history.3. Where is the text probably taken from?A. An official document.B. A travel magazine.C. A science report.D. A history book.BHidden beneath the surface in the roots of Earths astonishing and diverse plant life, there exists a biological superhighway linking together the members of the plant kingdom in what researchers call the "wood wide web".The network is comprised of thin threads of fungus (真菌) that grow outwards underground up to a few meters from its partnering plant, meaning that all of the plant life within a region likely connected to one another. The partnership is beneficial for both parties involved, plants provide carbohydrates (碳水化合物) to the funguses and in exchange, the funguses aid in gathering water and providing nutrients to its partnering plant.A study conducted by Rensen Zeng of theSouthChinaAgriculturalUniversityfound that this also allowed for plants to warn one another of potential harm. The study showed Broad Beans used the fungal network to spy on one another for upcoming danger.Like our Internet, this fungal connectivity is also full of crime. Some plants, such as Golden Marigolds have been found to release poisons into the network to slow down the growth of surrounding plants in the fight for water and light. Other plants, such as the Phantom Orchid, do not have the chlorophyll (叶绿素) and must get the necessary nutrients from surrounding plants.Research suggests that animals such as insects and worms may be able to detect slight exchanges of nutrients through the network, allowing them to more easily find delicious roots to feed on; however, this has not been conclusively made clear in experimentation. The more we learn about this phenomenon, the more our understanding of the plant life of our planet will continue to change. Perhaps one day, we may be able to map out these complex networks entirely.4. What is the function of the first paragraph?A.To explain the aim of the web.B. To introduce the main topic.C. To give definition of diverse life.D. To show the importance of plants.5. The criminal behavior of plants can be seen as a way to________.A. compete for survivalB. gather more waterC. take in sunlightD. break natural rules6. What does the last paragraph suggest?A. Animals can also feed on the fungus.B. Nutrient exchanges are too slight to detect.C. No experiment can prove the phenomenon.D. More needs to be done to work out the network.7. Which can be the best title for the text?A. The Partnership between PlantsB. The Unknown Roots of the EarthC. The Superhighway Linking the PlantsD. The Mysterious Map Changing the WorldCWe have most friends at the age of 26 afterhaving spent the first quarter of our lives building up our friendship circle, new research has claimed.The research into friendship shows that our social circle peaks at 26 years and 7 months, at which we typically have five close friends. Women are most popular at 25 years and 10 months, with men hitting the highest friendship point a little later at 27 years and 3 months.The research, by Forever Friends, shows that about a third of adults meet their closest friends while at school, with about a fifth saying they meet them at work.Social networks such as Facebook and Twitter now also play a major role in building new friendship. The research points out that 25 to 34-year-olds make 22 friends via Facebook, compared to 18 to 24-year-olds who make 12, and 35 to 44-year-olds who make just four.Forever Friends' relationship coach Sam Owen says, “It is no coincidence that over a third of us meet our best friends at school. It is a key time in our lives when friendship is growing through sharing notes, giving gifts, seeing each other regularly and laughing a lot. As adults we can often forget how powerful these small things are and how the little things can make a difference."Later in life we find ourselves losing friends. Over half of us lose friendship through moving, while 36% say that over time they grow apart from close pals. Having children also causes 19% todrift away fromchildhood friends.With growing pressure being put on friendship these days, it's important to make time for our friendship.8. How many friends can a 20-year-old college student make via Facebook?A. 22.B. 18.C. 12.D. 4.9. In Paragraph 5, the author is trying to tell the readers ________.A. how important making friends isB. school time is an important period to develop friendshipC. how much has been done to keep friendshipD. that friendship is not easy to keep10. The underlined phrase "drift away from" in Paragraph 6 means ________.A. make sense ofB. make up withC. feel sorry forD. lose touch with11. This passage is mostprobably taken from ________.A. a newspaperB. an advertisementC. a textbookD. Facebook or TwitterDA world in which extinct creatures could be brought back to life came a step closer yesterday. Australian scientists have managed to extract a gene from a preserved sample of a Tasmanian tiger and make it active. Thebreakthroughhas left them dreaming that one day they will be able to recreate the animal, which died out more than 70 years ago. And if it can be done with the Tasmanian tiger, it may also be possible to resurrect (复活) creatures that have been extinct for far longer.“There used to be a time when extinction meant forever, but no more, ” said Professor Mike Archer. “We are now able to seriously challenge whether those animals that have gone for ever. What has been achieved is a very important step in bringing back those animals that are extinct. And while I think that technically it is still pretty difficult at the moment, we can now see the possibilities. I’m personally convinced that the Tasmanian tiger will be brought back to life in my lifetime.”The breakthrough came after nine years of experiments by scientists at the University of Melbourne, who extracted a gene from one of several tigers preserved in alcohol in a Melbourne museum. They removed the equivalent gene from a mouse embryo implanted the tiger gene and then watched as the mouse continued to grow normally, suggesting the tiger gene had been activated.Team leader Dr. Andrew Pask said it was the first time DNA from an extinct species had been used to “induce (引起) a functional response in another living organism”.However, the animal’s entire gene structure would have to be revived in the same way to even begin the possibility of bringing the Tasmanian tiger back from the dead.Mick Mooney, a wildlife officer ofthe Tasmanian Government, was worried that such developments could encourage people’s indifference to the protection of endangered species.“If people think that we can bring animals back to life after they’ve gone, they will start saying that there is nothing to worry about because we can fix it up later.”12. What does the underlined word “breakthrough” in the l paragraph refer to?A. Scientists have recreated new animals.B. Scientists have resurrected endangered animal.C. It has turned out that some creatures would not go extinct.D. A tiger gene has been extracted successfully and activated.13. Scientists are carrying out the experiments in order to ________.A. bring extinct animals back to lifeB. transplant the genes of tigers into other animalsC. find out what factors lead to the animals’ extinctionD. find a new way to extract animals’ DNA14. Mike Archer thinks that ________.A. scientists now have no technological difficulty reconnecting extinct animalsB. it’ll be a century or so before a Tasmanian tiger walks on the earth againC. humans have come closer in reconnecting extinct animalsD. reconnecting extinct animals is impossible15. We can learn from Mick Mooncy’s words that_________.A. he thought it unnecessary to worry about endangered animalsB. his opinion is in contrast with that of the Tasmanian GovernmentC. he thought people should be encouraged to protect endangered animalsD. he is concerned that bringing extinct animals back to life may have a negative effect第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

A key section of the Silk Roads is the Chang’an-Tianshan corridor(走廊), whichstretchesover a distance of around 5,000 kilometres through China, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, covering a total of 8,700 kilometres of trade routes. The three countries jointly pursued an application for UNESCO World Heritage (遗产) status which contained detailed research on the 33 sites along the corridor. This made history as the first successful multinational World Heritage application.The starting point of the corridor and the entire Silk Roads network isXi’an, inShanxiProvince. Further west on the Silk Roads, the geography gradually changes from wild deserts to high, snow-capped mountains to vast grasslands as the routes pass through theTianshanMountainsand emerge in the valleys ofCentral Asia. Although the Chang’an-Tianshan corridor of the Silk Roads ends here, the network continues westwards until it reaches theMediterranean.The corridor began to develop in the 2nd century. Assigned by the emperor, the ambassador Zhang Qian journeyed from Chang’an toCentral Asia, seeking to build bridges between the Han Dynasty and the Western Regions. Following Zhang’s efforts, trade routes took shape and relationships were strengthened between the major powers of the time, with the routes network reaching as far as theRoman Empire.Economic activities along the routes network were not limited to trade in silk. They contributed many other items to the marketplace of goods. The routes were busy with camels carrying loads of goods and businessmen selling everything imaginable.China’s exports included silk, porcelain, ironware and tea, while horses, jewellery, spices and grapes were all imported over vast distances from the West.In addition to trade exchange, the network served as a bridge for cultural exchange which shaped the evolution of science, art, technology and many other areas in societies along the network. Astronomy and mathematics were introduced toChinafromIndiaandArabia; important Chinese inventions such as papermaking and printing were brought to the West.All of these activities contributed to a great age of expansion as trade and cultural exchanges gave people access to new goods,knowledge and ideas. These routes connected Eastern and Western civilizations, which achieved a shared development. The addition of the Chang’an-Tianshan corridor to the UNESCO World Heritage List is a milestone in recognition of the Silk Roads as a crucial part of humanity’s common heritage.4. The key section of the Silk Roads is________.A. the MediterraneanB. Xi’an, inShanxiProvinceC.KazakhstanandKyrgyzstanD. the Chang’an-Tianshan corridor5.

It speeded up the development of the countries involved.D. It started a trade competition between countries along the way.CThe American poet Louise Gluck, author of 12 collections of poetry, has been awarded the 2020 Nobel Prize in Literature. Born inNew Yorkin 1943, Gluck published her first volume of poetry, “Firstborn”, in 1968, quickly gaining her reputation as a poet. In the decades since, she has become one of the country's most celebrated literary figures. Her work uses the power of myth to deal with some of our darkest human concerns. Her straightforward language always gets at the heart of deep-seated anxieties: loneliness, rejection, death ...Stephanie Burt,an English professor atHarvardUniversity, said, “She's someone who's been able to make emotion states vivid on the page... Few poets have tried as hard as she has not to repeat herself. And her strongest books are really different from one another”. “She offers poetry lovers a lot of inspiration, but she's also on a lot of bookshelves," said Chiasson, a poet, who added she is a generous reader of her fellow writers’work.At Yale, where Gluck is a professor of English, she served for years as judge of the Yale Series of Younger Poets Prize and worked closely with poets she chose for the prize and those she did not, helping them shape their work. “In that very practical way she's had an enormous influence on a great many figures,” said Langdon Hammer, a professor of English at Yale. “She's someone who has been a 'guiding spirit’ for generations of students, writers, and readers.”Gluck described teaching and writing as symbiotic. “I teach not out of selflessness or generosity: I do it because it feeds me,” she said. “It feeds them, too, so it's a happy relationship. I'm sure not all my students feel that way, but some do. I never feel that it takes me from my work: I think it gives me my work.”8. Which of the following topics might Gluck tend to explore in her work?A. Victory.B. Divorce.C. Romance.D. Achievement.9. What quality does Gluck have according to the passage?A. Humorous and intelligent.B. Ambitious and helpful.C. Considerate and optimistic.D. Inspiring and creative.10. What does teaching mean to Gluck?A. A source of wealth.B. A barrier to writing.C. A fountain of creation.D. A stepping stone to fame.11. What is the best title for the text?A. A Guiding SpiritB. A Successful PioneerC. An Adventurous CreatorD. A Hardworking WriterDA Singaporean company will feed airport food waste to mealworms before turning them into fish feed, aiming to cut the country's use of imported feed and offer a continuous alternative.Blue Aqua Internationalwill partner with Dnata, an air and travel services provider, to change organic waste at Singapore's Changi Airport into insect protein for aquacultural use, according to a statement Tuesday.The project looks to replace traditional fish and soybean meal as the main sources of protein for aquafeed. The insects will eat the food waste and change it into part of the body containing about 60 per cent protein. The dried baby worms will then be made into feed.These mealworms can be a continuous solution to several problems. Using a small land and giving out less carbon, they turn food waste into feed and offer an alternative source of protein. Ynsect SAS, a small French business that keeps mealworms to feed fish and pets, attracted money from investors includingIron Manmovie actor Robert Downey Jr. in a round of fund-raising last year.The deal will give Singapore's farmers access to domestically produced animal feed, which is traditionally bought from abroad. The Southeast Asian nation imports more than 90 percent of its food and has set a goal to produce a third of its food locally by 2030. It also aims to achieve a general recycling rate of 70 per cent by then. Presently, less than 20 per cent of Singapore's food waste is recycled.As part of the partnership, Dubai-based Dnata will add Blue Aqua to its list of suppliers to buy locally farmed seafood for its catering service.12. What is the function of mealworms?A. To cut the use of imported fish feed.B. To eat food waste and make fish feed.C. To domestically produce animal feed.D. To replace traditional fish and soybean meal.13. What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about?A. The producers of the feed.B. The purpose of the projectC. The advantages of the project.D. The composition of the feed.14. What can we infer about Singapore from Paragraph 5?A. It is a rich country.B. It is short of self-produced food.C. Its recycling rate is very high now.D. Its farmers don't support the deal.15. What is the text mainly about?A. A new way to produce fish feed.B.An introduction to a company.C. A plan to reduce food waste.D. A deal to protect farmers.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
高考英语_山东省实验中学2021届高三下学期2月份模拟考试英语试卷
山东省实验中学2021届高三下学期2月份模拟考试英语试卷第Ⅰ卷第二部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分35分)第一节:(共10个小题;每小题2.5分,满分25分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AWhen it comes to judgment of their bodies,women can’t win.People often make“fat jokes”,but fat-shaming is no laughing matter;neither is fit-shaming.I spoke to two women who were shamed for being fat,and then,after losing weight,shamed for being fit.Sarah Moore is a29-year-old mother of three from Indiana,US.She became a personal trainer after losing more than45kg.She remembers the fat-shaming she bore before her weight loss.When waiting to get on a roller coaster once,people behind her were complaining about the wait,and the attendant(服务人员)told them,“Don’t worry.She’s not going to fit on here,and you’ll be next.”But after losing weight,Moore said people commented on her body even more.“Now I get comments like,‘Are you sure you can eat that?’because they’re worried I’ll regain the weight,”she said.How does it make her feel?“Fat-shaming made me feel sad and helpless,and fit-shaming makes me angry,”she said.Changes in body weight can also influence relationships.It can upset the balance because others can get jealous.People who lose weight can experience personality changes,such as an increase in confidence,which also influences relationships.Fit-shaming has been harder to handle for Andrea Sereda,a38-year-old social worker in Canada.She said judgment of her body is something she’s faced for years.Sereda said that when she was9,her grandfather told her at a birthday party,“I don’t think you should eat cake,”and made comments about how many calories each bite contained as she ate it.She also experienced similar things in college.The judgment of Sereda’s body increased after she lost57kg.“It’s worse with people who knew me from before,”Sereda said.“People constantly say,‘You’re so skinny now you’re going to disappear.’”It was mostly friends making such comments.Closer friends seemed to compare their own bodies negatively to Sereda’s new physique(体型).“I was afraid of going out and having to field all these comments,”Sereda said.“I had to learn how to handle it.”Let us try to understand that just because someone has lost weight,it doesn’t make them fair game for commentary on their new shape.Everyone deserves to live free of being body shamed,regardless of how they look.21.Sarah Moore is shamed for being fit after losing weight mainly because________.A.people still judge her new body shapeB.she lost too much weight after her dietC.her personality changed for the betterD.people are all jealous of her new look22.The example of Andrea Sereda is used to________.A.explain what pushes women to lose weightB.show the negative effects of fit shamingC.suggest what can be done to handle fat shamingD.show the difficulties overweight women face23.What would be a proper way to treat those who have lost weight?A.To appreciate their new body shape.B.To stop commenting on their physique.C.To encourage them to maintain their shape.D.To remind them to be careful with their diet.BI’m Jeff Logan,president of Logan Luxury Theaters Corporation.I’m very sorry to tell you many cinemas are at risk of closing permanently(永久).That’s something we would hate to see happen.Watching the newest box office movie and eating a big bucket of popcorn is an experience that many of us have enjoyed for a very long time.We all have fond memories of going to a theater of our first dates or the first movie we saw with our children.A movie theater is so important to the fabric of the local community.It’s a place where we all gather,no matter what our interests,and no matter what ages,young and old,rich and poor.But how much longer will classic theaters remain open?Just like other industries,movie theaters have been hit hard by the pandemic(流行病)and are going dark.The entire industry is being controlled by the pandemic,because the studios don’t want to release their new movies until all the theaters can be open.As we all know,the theaters can’t do well and can’t get back to full7-day a week at full speed operation without new movies to play.Recently,the Logan Luxury5Cinema in Mitchell reopened for the weekends.However,like manytheaters,it is only operating at about10percent capacity.Since opening,several new safety measures have been put in place.Block off every other row.People are asked to leave three seats between them and the next group.Staff spray the theater with disinfectant(消毒剂)after every show.And sanitizer stations can be found throughout the theater.Even so,some people still aren’t comfortable going to a movie theater yet.I fully understand that.Anyhow, Ijust hope we must do something else to help out our local theaters,like taking part in a new national proposal called“Save Your Cinema.”1.What does the underlined word"fabric"in paragraph4refer to?A.Typical feature.B.Basic structure.C.Public support.mon vision.2.Why are the film studios unwilling to release the new movies?A.Cinemas don’toperate normally.B.New movies aren’t welcomed.C.People don’t like goingto cinema.D.Many cinemas go out of business.3.What can we infer about the Logan Luxury5Cinema after its reopening?A.It makes a lot of money.B.It does well in disease prevention.C.It receives a large audience every day.D.It offers more enjoyable experience.4.What is the purpose of this text?A.To share the good old days.B.To explain a social problem.C.To ask for people’s help.D.To recommend a theater.CTo move visual technology into the future,sometimes it helps to make a little noise.Researchers have used sound waves to produce floating3-D images,create a sense of touch and even supply a soundtrack.Since the1940s,scientists have toyed with the concept of acoustic levitation(声悬浮),the use of soundwave vibrations to trap tiny things in midair.The technology has gained greater capabilities in the past decade.Some researchers believe this improvement could lead to applications such as contributing to novel 3-D printing methods,or creating displays that would be visible from any angle without requiring a screen.Other researchers have also worked on visual displays that use acoustic levitation.In addition to visuals, the system can also produce audible noise to give the display a soundtrack.And the ultrasound speakers canalso concentrate vibrations in one spot so that a finger might feel a sense pushing back—a little like the object shown by the floating image is really there.Soundwaves create a3-D display!Display without a screen is remarkably useful.It means that everybody in the room can see the image—any angle,location—and that’s extremely helpful.As a communications system,such a display might one day allow users to chat with a3-D projection(投影)of a person who can turn his or her head to follow as they move around a room.The display will require a lot more work before you can install it in your living room,however.So far, this has been done in the research laboratory.We need to push it a little bit harder.We need to do more analysis to see if it would make sense to create a real display that people would have at home.The current system can only show simple graphics,such as a smiley face or figure eight,in real time.Still,we are optimistic about the potential for this type of technology.If the system had only one speaker-covered surface instead of two,it could generate images that are bigger than the device itself.We can’t make a TV image that’s bigger than the TV—even a projector has to have a projection screen that’s bigger than the image itself.But with a volumetric(容积的)display,a small,portable device might produce a much larger picture.We can imagine,in the future,having volumetric displays in watches,for example,that create large images that just project out of your watch.5.From the first two paragraphs soundwave vibrations can be used to_.A.catch very small objectsin midairB.develop3-D printer’s capabilitiesC.replace a creative display screenpose soundtracks by making no noise6.What do we know about display without a screen?A.It has resulted in visual technology.B.It is possible to see the image from any direction.C.It is already ripe to create a real one at home.D.It has yet to be tested in the research laboratory.7.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?A.Outlooks for thenew technology.B.Situations of the modern technology.C.Praise for the cutting-edge technology.D.Room for the technicalimprovement.8.What can be a suitable title for the passage?A.Hearing Is Seeing—Sound Waves Create a3-D DisplayB.Seeing is Believing—3-D Printing MethodsArriveC.Advancing Sense of Touch—3-D Images Float in theAirD.Promoting TV Technology—Chat with3-D ProjectionsDOne morning,when Gregor Samsa woke from troubled dreams,he found himself transformed in his bed into a horrible insect.He lay on his armor-like back,and if he lifted his head a little he could see his brown belly,slightly domed and divided by arches into stiff sections.The bedding was hardly able to cover it and seemed ready to slide off any moment.His many legs,pitifully thin compared with the size of the rest of him, waved about helplessly as he looked.“What’s happened to me?”he thought.It wasn’t a dream.His room,a proper human room although a little too small,lay peacefully between its four familiar walls.A collection of textile samples lay spread out on the table—Samsa was a travelling salesman—and above it there hung a picture that he had recently cut out of an illustrated magazine and housed in a nice,gilded frame.It showed a lady fitted out with a fur hat and fur scarf who sat upright,raising a heavy fur muff(暖手筒)that covered the whole of her lower arm towards the viewer.Gregor then turned to look out the window at the dull weather.Drops of rain could be heard hitting the window,which made him feel quite sad.“How about if I sleep a little bit longer and forget all this nonsense,”he thought,but that was something he was unable to do because he was used to sleeping on his right,and in his present state couldn’t get into that position.However hard he threw himself onto his right,he always rolled back to where he was.He must have tried it a hundred times,shut his eyes so that he wouldn’t have to look at the floundering legs,and only stopped when he began to feel a mild,dull pain there that he had never felt before.He thought,“What a heavy career it is that I’ve chosen!Travelling day in and day out.Doing business like this takes much more effort than doing your own business at home,and on top of that there's the curse of travelling,worries about making train connections,bad and irregular food,contact with different people all the time so that you can never get to know anyone or become friendly with them.”He felt a slight itch up on his belly;pushed himself slowly up on his back towards the headboard so that he could lift his head better; found where the itch was,and saw that it was covered with lots of little white spots which he didn’t know what to make of;and when he tried to feel the place with one of his legs he drew it quickly back because assoon as he touched it he was overcome by a cold tremble.He slid back into his former position.“Getting up early all the time,”he thought,“it makes you stupid. You’ve got to get enough sleep.Other travelling salesmen live a life of luxury.For instance,whenever I go back to the guest house during the morning to copy out the contract,these gentlemen are always still sitting there eating their breakfasts.I ought to just try that with my boss;I’d get kicked out on the spot.But who knows,maybe that would be the best thing for me.If I didn’t have my parents to think about I’d have given in my notice a long time ago,I’d have gone up to the boss and told him just what I think,tell him everything I would,let him know just what I feel.He’d fall right off his desk!And it’s a funny sort of business to be sitting up there at your desk,talking down at your inferiors from up there,especially when you have to go right up close because the boss is hard of hearing.Well,there’s still some hope;once I’ve got the money together to pay off my parents’debt to him—another five or six years I suppose—that’s definitely what I’ll do.That’s when I’ll make the big change.First of all though,I’ve got to get up,my train leaves at five.”9.According to the passage,Gregor initially believes his transformation is a.A.curseB.diseaseC.nightmareD.fraud10.The author most likely includes a description of Gregor’s itch in paragraph4to.A.remind the reader that Gregor has already turned into an insectB.stress the disconnection between Gregors’thoughts and his actual situationC.present important details about what Gregor’s new body lookslikeD.show that Gregor’s thoughts are focused on the changes tohis body11.The passage most strongly suggests which of the following about Gregor’s attitude toward his profession?A.He is angry.B.He is eager to please.C.He is depressed.D.He is diligent.12.The main rhetorical(修辞的)effect of the final sentence of the excerpt(“First of all though,I've got to get up, my train leaves at five”)is to.A.provide a solution to the conflict Gregor facesB.foretell the conflict between Gregor and his bossB.illustrate Gregor’s flexibility and ability to move on D.emphasize Gregor’s extreme sense of duty第二节:(共5个小题;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。

The explosion of technology has made teaching outside the traditional classroom possible for teachers and has provided learners with easy access to course materials. Its attractiveness, benefits, and challenges are addressed.In April, 2005, I was approached by a student who was interested in our doctoral program. However, the first question out of her mouth was, “Do you offer any online courses?” Later that day, as I was reading the conference program guide trying for interesting presentations, I noticed many workshops on web-based learning and online education. I later attended two of those workshops and met several professors from different universities who had either taught online courses for quite some time or who were discovering the best practice for teaching online. These experiences helped me realize at least to some extent the degree of growth in online education.My responsibilities for the term included gaining more understanding of online education. Consequently, I made several attempts to enrich my knowledge of distance learning and online teaching. I consulted with my colleagues who were teaching online courses. This helped me recognize the importance of getting materials prepared even before the start of a term. I also learned that online courses may consume more time than regular classroom teaching. And I attended several workshops regarding online education and established a network with those who were involved in online programs at other universities. I will consider these people as my consultants as I begin to design my own online course. Also, I conducted a brief survey with 15 students and two faculty members who had taken or taught an online course before to understand their experience. Eventually I completed a literature review which gave me the foundation and the background of understanding the need for online education.4. What benefits the development of online education?A. Teachers’ good teaching ability.B. Lack of traditional classrooms.C. Learners’ access to free courses.D. The rapid advance of technology.5. Why did the author take a student for example?A. To show students’ love for the doctoral program.B. To persuade learners of traditional education.C. To explain the growing trend of online education.D. To predict the future of the teaching career.6. What caused the author to know more about online education?A. The appetite for knowledge.B. The professional responsibilities.C. The requirement of research.D. The colleagues’ encouragement.7. What is the author’s attitude to online education?A. Carefree.B. Doubtful.C. Supportive.D. Unwilling.CSome of the oldest art in human history is being damaged, scientists say. And climate change may be speeding up its loss. Newresearch reports that ancient rock art in Indonesian caves is degrading over time, as bits of rock slowly break off from the walls. It's a huge loss for human history.Salt crystals(结晶)building up on the walls are a key part of the problem, the study suggests. These salt crystals go into the cave walls, changing sizes as temperatures rise and fall. This process causes the rock to slowly break down.Salt crystals may become larger when exposed to repeated changes between wet conditions and periods of drought. These kinds of changes are expected to become more obvious as the climate continues to warm.In particular, the researchers say, climate change may cause more intense El Nino(厄尔尼诺)events in the future. These events can strengthen the kinds of conditions that help salt crystals form Scientists are still debating the exact influence of climate change on El Nino, a natural climate cycle that drives changing patterns of warming and cooling in thePacific Ocean.The new study, led by Jillian Huntley, examined 11 ancient cave art sites in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. The researchers found evidence of salt formation at all 11 sites. It's merely a small part There are more than 300 known eave art sites around the region. The researchers note that salt crystals may indeed be part of the problem, adding that climate change is a growing threat, one that deserves more attention.8. What is the main cause of the rocks breaking off from the wall?A. Weather patterns.B. Salt crystals.C. Wet conditions.D. Drought Periods.9. Which of the following may researchers agree with?A. El Nino events prevent salt crystals forming.B. Climate change makes little difference to El Nino.C.Salt crystals may become much larger in wet conditions.D. Constant warm weather may cause salt crystals to change size.10. Which word best describes Huntley's attitude to climate change?A. Worried.B. Curious.C. Doubtful.D. Positive.11. What can we learn from thelast paragraph?A. The formation and patterns of salt crystals.B. The impact of climate change on ancient rock arts.C. The historical value of ancient rock art in cave sites.D. The threats of human activities to ancient eave art sites.DI’ve long believedthat positive living isn’t about being optimistic every minute of every day. That kind of permanently happy state can’t be the goal, because it’s impossible to achieve.It turns out that psychological research finds true happiness comes from authentic positivity, and authentic positivity comes from emotional flexibility.Being flexible emotionally means being open to the full range of emotional experiences, including the challenging ones like anger, disappointment and sadness. Emotional flexibility means being able to shift behaviors and mindsets to meet different situational needs, and adapting when circumstances change.However, emotionally flexible people are not chameleons (变色龙) whose outlook changes based on which way the wind is blowing. Instead, emotional flexibility is a skill that helps people judge the complexities of daily life, and stick to their deeply held values.I’ve learned a new word that I’d like to share with you: Eudaimonia (幸福感). Eudaimonia is the opposite of hedonism (享乐主义), the idea that happiness comes from the constant pursuit of pleasure and avoidance of pain. Eudaimonia, by contrast, encourages us to pursue meaning and authenticity, growth and honest joy. Both are philosophical approaches to happiness, and recent psychological thought is leaning toward eudaimonia as a moresustainable, satisfying model.Eudaimonia was first mentioned by Aristotle, who got the term from the Greek word “daimon,” which means “true nature.” Tome, walking a positive path means accepting that we each have positive true nature and permanent goodness. What we learn from the concept of eudaimonia is that we are best equipped to realize this nature when we are emotionally honest and flexible.12. What is the author’s belief?A. People should live alone.B. People can’t always be happy.C. People can’t always achieve their goals.D. People should pursue true achievements.13. What do enmotionally flexible people commit themselves to?A. Their strongly believed values.B. Their different needs.C. Permanent happiness.D. The pursuit of hedonism.14. How can people gain eudaimonia according to the author?A. By being honest to others.B. By changing true nature.C. By keeping realstically optimistic.D. By pursuing pleasure constantly.15. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. What is the meaning of eudaimonia?B. What should we do to keep positive?C. How can we keep happy forever?D. Why can’t people be happy all the time?第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

subjectAbility The student has a natural talent for a particular subjectarea.The student thinks that it will be an easyoption.Interest The student enjoys studying the subject,which will helpkeep them motivated when things get tough.The student’s friends are doing it so theythink it will be fun.Future It relates to the student’s career plan and will help themdevelop relevant skills for their future.The student did not have time to researchtheir options properly.Advice The student has discussed their options with their teachersand parents and they have agreed it is a good idea.The student is only doing the subjectbecause someone else told them to do it.University entrance requirements are set by the British university admissions and will differ depending on theuniversity and courses selected.It is important to thoroughly research courses before choosing A-Level subjects and staff are available to guide students and parents in this area.Careers and future optionsStudents are given an opportunity to broaden their knowledge and understanding of the nature and demands of a variety of careers.They will receive career talks and presentations from a variety of employers and have the opportunity to visit universities.Further researchAs part of the option process.students are encouraged to carry out additional research to help them with their selection.1.What should a student consider for choosing a subject?A.Friends’preferences.B.Difficulty of subjects.C.Teachers’expectations.D.Relation to occupations.2.What is included in the subject-selecting process?A.Engaging students in college tours.B.Offering lectures on A-Level subjects.C.Guaranteeing a suitable future job.D.Conducting various scientific research.3.Where is the text probably taken from?A.An exam paper.B.A teaching plan.C.A school brochure.D.An academic article.BDo you know how much India struggles to gather the waste plastic water bottles?According to a Central Pollution Control Board(CPCB)report from2012,India generates15,000tonnes of plastics a day,of which the gathered ones only achieve60%.The trashed-but-not-gathered plastic waste leads to land and water pollution. posing serious threat to the environment.After seeing that,Ankur Chawla,a drink expert,undertook research to find a solution,after which he realised the biggest problem the country faced was disposing of plastic waste.To address it,he wanted to come up with a solution where they do not add to the problem of waste.Fortunately,Ankur was not alone.He met Bhrigu Seth who was into green farming.Both of them found that they shared a common goal and it didn’t take long for them to draft a plan of action.It is estimated that over90percent of aluminium(铝)drink cans in India are recycled.Instead,70percent of the cans are manufactured through recycled waste.After going through challenges at hand,the pair made up their minds.Before taking the next step.both co-founders visited five-star hotels and took samples of water in aluminium cans,asking them whether they would give it a shot if something like that comes in the market.The pair received an overwhelmingly positive response.They then determined to launch Responsible Whatr,natural spring water drink packed in an aluminium can to solve the problem of waste plastic water bottles.As one of India’s first natural spring water drink,Responsible Whatr offered an environmentally friendly and endlessly recyclable aluminium can.It’s a non-alcoholic drink that was launched with a vision for an eco-friendly future and an agenda to reduce single-use plastic pollution.Going forward,Ankur and Bhrigu aim to cooperate with airports and ecommerce gates which would help them in directly reaching the homes of high networth individuals(HNIs).They also plan to tie up with corporate firms and cinema halls and join hands with NGOs that are fighting for the conservation of beaches and oceans.4.What inspired Ankur to conduct his research?A.Plastics remained the major bottle material.B.Uncollected plastics caused severe pollution.C.Plastics accounted for most of the daily waste.D.The amount of plastic waste was beyond control.5.What was Ankur and Bhrigu’s solution to the problem?A.Creating a new packaging design.B.Developing an alternative to plastics.unching a rubbish sorting program.D.Increasing the recycling of plastic cans.6.What was Responsible Whatr aimed at?A.Removing plastic pollution.B.Promoting aluminium cans.C.Advertising non-alcoholic drinks.D.Advocating a sustainable approach.7.How do Ankur and Bhrigu plan to expand their market?A.By cooperating with NHIs.B.By introducing new products.C.By targeting profitable NGOs.D.By establishing diverse channels.CA new finding from Cambridge scientists has shown that an artificial intelligent(AI)system can acquire features of the brains of humans in order to solve tasks.“Not only is the brain great at solving complex problems,but it does so while using very little energy.In ournew work we show that considering the brains’problem-solving abilities alongside its goal of spending as few resources as possible can help us understand why brains look like they do,”said Jascha Achterberg,a scholar at the University of Cambridge.In a study published in Nature Machine Intelligence,Achterberg and his colleagues created an artificial system intended to model a simplified version of the brain.Instead of real neurons(神经元)in brains,the system used computational nodes(节点).The researchers gave the system a simple task to complete,where it had to combine multiple pieces of information to decide upon the shortest route to get to the destination.One of the reasons the team chose this particular task is that to complete it,the system needs to maintain a number of elements-start location,end location and intermediate steps-and once it has learned to do the task reliably,it is possible to observe,at different moments in a trial,which nodes are important.Initially,the system does not know how to complete the task and makes mistakes.But when it is given feedback it gradually learns to get better at the task.The system then repeats the task until eventually it learns to perform it correctly.Co-author Professor Duncan Astle said,“This simple task forces artificial systems to produce some quite complicated characteristics.Interestingly,they are characteristics shared by biological systems.I think that tells us something fundamental about why our brains are organised the way they are.”The team also believes their findings are likely to be of interest to the AI community,too,where they could allow for the development of more efficient systems.8.Which best describes the brains of humans according to the text?A.Intelligent.B.Efficient.C.Adaptive.D.Imaginative.9.Why did researchers assign the route-finding task?A.To require decision-making process.B.To complete it without any effort.C.To result in various node sizes.D.To involve specific procedures.10.What can we infer about the system from the last two paragraphs?A.It shows limits of artificial intelligence.B.It needs human instructions to progress.C.It performs complicated tasks by learning.D.It has much in common with human brains.11.What is the research team’s attitude toward the finding?A.Cautious.B.Enthusiastic.C.Hopeful.D.Skeptical.DMost people would be terrified of entering waters with crocodiles(鳄鱼),but not Sao Chan.Like others living in a jungle village,the73-year-old farmer says the Siamese crocodiles found in the waterways may look ferocious,but they should not be treated with prejudice.“If we come close to them,they just run away,”Chan says.He’s right.There have been extremely few reported attacks by Siamese crocodiles on humans in the world, and reportedly none anywhere in Cambodia.Instead,it’s the crocodiles that have every reason to fear people.Once common throughout Southeast Asia,the particularly shy Siamese crocodile,which can grow up to10feet long,was for decades hunted for its skin and meat to such an extent that,in the early1990s,the species was thought to be extinct in the wild.Some of them survived in the Cardamoms,however,where populations of the reptiles,likely numbering fewer than200individuals in total,were rediscovered in2000.Since then,local people have conducted regular patrols (巡逻)to protect them from threats.While the patrols and other conservation efforts have helped prevent the extinction of the Siamese crocodiles,concerns about the species’long-term survival have remained because population numbers have stayed largely flat since their rediscovery.In2022,conservationists have introduced more Siamese crocodiles into the wild than ever before,not just in the Cardamoms but for the first time into a wildlife reserve in the northern part of the country,where the crocodiles historically were found.Advances in genetic testing have identified crocodiles suitable for release,and satellite tracking of reintroduced crocodiles has improved protection efforts.“We have a long way to go,but the potential comeback of the Siamese crocodile could be Cambodia’s most successful conservation story,”says Pablo Sinovas,who leads a nonprofit reintroducing the animals.“Its survival isn’t just an ecological necessity,but a symbolic matter of urgency if we have any hope of preserving nature on Earth.”12.What does the underlined word“ferocious”in Paragraph1mean?A.Violent.B.Friendly.C.Ugly.D.Abnormal.13.What put Siamese crocodiles on the edge of extinction?A.Habitat loss.B.Water pollution.C.Human activities.D.Poor adaptability.14.Why are protectors worried about Siamese crocodiles?A.They are regularly disturbed by touristsB.Their quantity isn’t increased as expected.C.The locals lack awareness of protecting themD.They fail to adjust to unfamiliar surroundings15.What plays a great role in crocodiles’reintroduction?A.Frequent patrols.B.Modern technology.C.Economic advances.D.Genetic transformation.第二节(共5小题:每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

哈三中2021—2022学年度高三学年第二次验收考试英语试卷(时间:120分钟满分150分)第一部分:阅读理解(共两小节,满分50分)第一节(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
AThe Best Books of2020On Monday,the American Library Association announced the top children’s books of 2020.Here are the winners.DevotionAuthor Clare Vanderpool took home the John Newbery Medal for outstanding contribution to children’s literature for Moon over Manifest.The book is about a young girl’s magical adventures in a small Kansas town,in1936.Vanderpool said that she was shocked to learn that she had won.“You grow up reading legendary authors like Madeleine L’Engle,but I never expected to be put in a category with her,”Vanderpool told TFK.“It’s fabulous.”Picture ThisThe picture book A Sick Day for Amos McGee won the Randolph Caldecott Medal.The book was illustrated by Erin E.Stead and written by her husband,Philip C.Stead.It tells the story of an elderly zookeeper and the animals that visit him when he’s not well enough to go to work.“I love drawing animals and I love drawing people and I love drawing the emotional connection between animals and people,”said Stead.More Honored BooksThe Coretta Scott King award,given to an African-American author and illustrator of “outstanding books for children and young adults,”went to Rita Williams-Garcia for One Crazy Summer.Set in1968,the novel follows three sisters from Brooklyn,New York,who visit their mother,a poet who ran away years ago and lives in California.The king prize for best-illustrated work went to Dave the Potter:Artist,Poet,Slave.The book,which was written by Laban Carrick Hill and illustrated by Bryan Collier,tells the story of a skilled potter who engraved his poems on the clay pots and jars that he made.The enslaved potter,known only as Dave,lived in South Carolina in the1800s.1.How did Vanderpool feel when she heard the news that she won the medal?A.Astonished.B.Disappointed.C.Embarrassed.D.Depressed.2.One Crazy Summer is a_________.A.collection of poemsic bookC.fictionD.picture book3.Who illustrated the book Dave the Potter:Artist,Poet,Slave?A.Bryan Collier.B.Erin E.Stead.ban Carrick Hill.D.Madeleine L’Engle.4.What can we infer from the passage?A.The book Moon over Manifest tells a story of a zookeeper and his animals.B.A Sick Day for Amos McGee shows us that animals can interact with humans.C.The book A Sick Day for Amos McGee is written by Erin,a famous woman writer.D.One Crazy Summer is about a mother with her three children having a holiday inCalifornia.BReading minds may not be simple,but it might be possible actually.What if a brain scan could reveal your memories?A team of British scientists recently just did that—they used brain scans to look at spatial(空间的)memory in four people.Spatial memory is the kind of memory you use to remember where you are.You use spatial memory to remember how to get from your house to school.People build spatial memory as they explore a new city or a new building and take in information about their surroundings.The scientists asked each participant to sit down at a computer and wander through3D rooms.These virtual rooms contained images of objects,like clocks and doors,so that the people could know where they were.Each person was encouraged to explore the virtual space.As the people became familiar with these rooms,their brains were taking notes of where things were,and how to get from one point to another.After observing these rooms,the participants were instructed to go to a specific location within the rooms.At this point,the scientists took pictures of the people’s brains using an instrument called FMRI(核磁共振成像).As participants stared at the floor,the scientists took FMRI scans to measure brain activity. They repeated this process many times.After a few repetitions,the scientists recognized the patterns in the participants’brains.By looking at patterns on the brain scans,the scientists were able to read the spatial memory of the test subjects.This experiment shows that it is possible to use FMRI to gather some kinds of memories from people.However,your secret thoughts and personal memories are safe—for now.“It is not the case that we can put someone in a brain scanner and simply read his private thoughts,”said one of the scientists who worked on the project.5.What can we learn about spatial memory from the first paragraph?A.It contributes to exploring a new subject.B.It lets you remember what has been done.C.It helps you memorize places where you are.D.It takes in information about new knowledge.6.Which of the following is the right order of the study?a.The scientists took photos of the brains with the FMRI.b.The scientists read the spatial memory of the participants.c.The participants were asked to explore virtual rooms.d.The scientists repeated the process a few times.A.a,b,c,dB.c,a,d,bC.b,c,d,aD.c,d,a,b7.Why are our secret mind and private memories safe?A.Because FMRIs can’t gather any memory from people.B.Because scientists can’t understand all pictures taken by FMRIs.C.Because FMRIs can’t be completely reliable now.D.Because scientists can’t read people’s thoughts directly.8.What does the passage mainly talk about?A.Spatial memory and FMRIs.B.A very important research.C.How scientists can read people’s memories.D.A new kind of camera—FMRIs.CGrasslands need time to rest when cattle and other animals feed on them.Moving animals from one area of pasture(牧场)to another can provide the time needed for new growth.This is called rotational grazing(循环放牧).Rotational grazing is good for the land and the animals,and it can save money.This form of grazing can reduce the need for pesticide(农药)treatments by reducing the growth of weeds. And it can limit the need for chemical fertilizers by letting natural fertilizer,animal droppings, do the job.Rotational grazing can even help prevent wildfires by keeping grasslands in good condition.Letting animals feed continually and intensively(集中地)in the same grazing areas can require costly replanting.Animals eat the most appropriate growth first.When that keeps happening,the roots do not have enough time to recover.As a result,less desirable plants may replace them.Intensively used grasslands are also harmed as the soil is continually crushed under the weight of heavy animals.And the animals usually avoid their own waste,so that reduces the amount of good grazing space even more.While rotational grazing can save money over time,it also requires planning.And that starts with a good map to mark fences,water supplies and grazing areas.Changing methods of grazing also requires time.Farmers may want to put up electric fences to enclose grazing areas,called paddocks.The paddocks will need water.Some farmers design a path for animals from different paddocks to drink from a common watering place. Farmers can start rotational grazing by removing animals from a pasture when the grass iseaten to less than five centimeters.The pasture is then kept empty until the grass grows to more than fifteen centimeters high.Sheep and goats may require special preparations.They may need stronger fences than other animals.And while they eat the grass,they may need guard animals like camels to protect them from animals that would like to eat them.9.If you want to carry out rotational grazing,you must do many things EXCEPT________.A.reducing the amount of the animalsB.making a plan about the electricity and water supplyC.building fencesD.making a design in advance10.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A.Sheep and goats are fierce and special animals.B.Sheep and goats aren’t suitable for rotational grazing.C.Sheep and goats need more management in rotational grazing.D.Sheep and goats are difficult to raise.11.Which statement of the following is NOT true according to the text?A.The heavy animals can damage the grasslands.B.Rotational grazing can provide the grass enough time to grow again.C.The grass over five centimeters in a pasture can be used to feed animals.D.During rotational grazing,more pesticidal chemicals are needed.12.Which of the following is the best title?A.How to Keep Grasslands in Good ConditionB.Giving Grasslands a RestC.The Hidden Meaning of Rotational GrazingD.The Drawbacks of Rotational GrazingDThe Annual Conference of the FEWThe first annual conference of the FEW,the Forum for World Education,was launched at OECD headquarters in Paris,centered on the theme“The Future of Education:Where Do We Go from Here”.There were over300international business leaders,education policymakers,and renowned scholars from more than10countries and regions participating in the two-day event. They exchanged ambitious and profound ideas about the future of global education.The forum started with keynote speeches by Princess Laurentien of the Netherlands and a Chinese business leader,both of whom shared opinions about the challenges of education in the 21st century.The business leader said that to keep up with today’s ever changing world,it was essential to develop innovation education.“In the current digital era,two things are increasinglyimportant:Not only should we give everyone the chance to receive an education but,first and foremost,it’s about offering students the right type of education and skillset that can prepare them to cope with the challenges that future poses.”He continued by stressing the importance of recognizing school employees including teachers and headmasters.“Education is about the future.We should give teachers the best recognition,and equip headmasters with the proper training and resources to identify and retain the most capable educators.A good teacher can help200students in their lifetime at least.”Princess Laurentien of the Netherlands acknowledged children’s creative ideas and the necessity of including them in the design of the education system.She explained that a good teaching method should not only help kids but also support adults.The forum has caught attention from the education,economy,culture and arts sectors, along with international organizations such as the UNESCO,policymakers,a number of universities,and non-profit organizations from all over the world.Launched in2013,FEW is a non-profit organization based in the U.S.It’s dedicated to promoting the growth of global economy through educational innovation and supporting disadvantaged communities in gaining access and equality.13.What is the main idea of the first two paragraphs?A.People think highly of the FWE.B.People could exchange their ideas about the FWE.C.People pay much attention to the future of education.D.People from around the world attended the annual conference of FWE.14.Who plays a key role in the future of education,according to the business leader?A.Students.cators.C.Business leaders.cation policymakers.15.What did the business leaders and Princess Laurentien of the Netherlands advocate about education?A.Developing creative education.B.Designing an education system.C.Offering students as much education as possible.D.Giving teachers proper resources.16.What do we know about the FWE?A.It is held every other year.B.It attracts global attention.C.It stresses advanced education.D.It aims to gain profits through education.E“Is it art?”Tyka,an artist and software engineer,asked the audience at Christie’s2019Art +Tech Summit in New York in June2019.The event’s theme was“The A.I.Revolution”,and Tyka was referring to artwork created using artificial intelligence.He flashed an image of urinal(小便池)on two large screens at either side of the stage—Marcel Duchamp’s famous and controversial sculpture Fountain.The audience laughed.“Obviously,it can be,”he said.However,many in the art community are wrestling with several unanswered questions after an algorithm-produced(演算法)print that resembled19th century European portraits was sold for$432,500.For example:when artwork is accomplished by means of the algorithm,who is the artist—the programmer or the computer?Because many works of AI art are digital, how do you value a creation that’s designed to live natively on the Internet and be widely shared?There are few clear answers.Claire Marmion,the founder and CEO of Haven Art Group,says collectors are still trying to figure out where the market for AI art is heading,and that it may not be the disruptive(破坏性的)force that some think it will be.Or,at least,the industry will adapt to it.Mario Klingemann,whose work was sold by Sotheby’s,prefers the term“generative art”, which includes all works created using algorithms,and believes the current buzz will eventually die down,otherwise AI art isn’t going anywhere.Instead,he thinks it will one day be viewed as simply another tool of the artist.“Just like photography never goes away,or making movies doesn’t,I’m pretty sure it will establish itself as a new media format,”he says.“Right now,of course,it’s all this mystery about AI,but I expect this to become really just a normal thing,where people will focus on what artists are actually saying with their art.”17.What’s the function of the first paragraph?A.To show what art is.B.To entertain readers.C.To explain the event’s theme.D.To lead to the topic of the passage.18.What makes people in the art industry feel confused?A.Who is the real creator of a piece of AI artwork.B.Where people can by AI artwork.C.How to sell AI artwork at a high price.D.How to share AI artwork.19.Which can best explain the underlined word“buzz”in the fourth paragraph?A.Excitement.B.Objection.C.Revolution.D.Argument.20.What does Klingermann think about AI art?A.Its future is unclear.B.It will disturb the traditional art industry.C.It will be as common as photography and movies.D.It will be applied to photography and film industry.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。

2021届哈尔滨市松雷中学高三英语月考试题及答案解析
2021届哈尔滨市松雷中学高三英语月考试题及答案解析第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AMy wife Hilary andI were on the beach, with three of our children, taking pictures of shore birds near our home in Alaska when we saw a bear. The bear was thin and small, moving aimlessly.Just a few minutes later, I heard my daughter shouting, “Dad! The bear is right behind us!" An aggressive bear will usually rush forward to frighten away its enemy but would suddenly stop at the last minute. This one was silent and its ears pinned back the sign of an animal that is going in for the kill. And it was a cold April day. Thebear behaved abnormally, probably because of hunger.I held my camera tripod(三脚架)in both hands to form a barrier as the bear rushed into me. Its huge head was level with my chest and shoulders, and the tripod stuck across its mouth. It bit down and I found myself supporting its weight. I knew 1 would not be able to hold it for long.Even so, this was a fight I had to win: I was all that stood between the bear and my family, who would stand little chance of running faster than a brown bear.The bear hit at the camera, cutting it off the tripod. I raised my left arm to protect my face; the beast held tightly on the tripod and pressed it into my side. My arm could not move, and I sensed that my bones were going to break.Drawing back my free hand, I struck the bear as hard as I could for five to six times. The bear opened its mouth and I grasped its fur, trying to push it away. I was actually wrestling with the bear at this point. Then, as suddenly as it had begun, the fight ended. The bear moved back towards-the forest,before returning for another attack the first time I felt panic.Obviously satisfied that we caused no further threat, the bear moved off, destroying a fence as it went. My arm was injured, but the outcome for us could hardly have been better. I'm proud that my family remained clear-headed when panic could have led to a very different outcome.1. How did the writer feel when faced with the brown bear?A. Fearful but confident.B. Nervous but brave.C. Upset but determined.D. Awful but hopeful.2. The bear finally went away after itA. got injuredB. felt safeC. found some foodD. took away the camera3. What does the author want to tell us?A. We should keep calm when troubles comeB. We should rise to the challenge when faced with difficulties.C. We should not risk ourselves in some dangerous areas.D. We should learn to take advantage of anything at hand when in trouble.BA lot of us lose life’s tough battles by starting a frontal attack—when a touch of humor might well enable us to win.Consider the case of a young friend of mine,who hita traffic jam on his way to work shortly after receiving an ultimatum about beinglate on the job.Although there was a good reason for Sam’s a being late—serious illness at home—he decided that this by-now-familiar excuse wouldn’t work any longer.His supervisor was probably already pacing up and down preparing a dismissal speech.Yes,the boss was.Sam entered the office at 9:35.The place was as quiet as a locker room;everyone was hard at work.Sam’s supervisor came up to him.Suddenly,Sam forced a grin and stretched out his hand.“How do you do!” he said.“I’m Sam Maynard.I’m applying for a job,which,I understand,became available just 35 minutes ago.Does the early bird get the worm?”The room exploded in laughter.The supervisor“clamped off”a smile and walked back to his office.Sam Maynard had saved his job—with the only tool that could win,a laugh.Humor is a most effective,yet frequently neglected,means of handling the difficult situations in our lives.It can be used for patching up differences,apologizing,saying “no”,criticizing,getting the other fellow to do what you want without his losingface.For some jobs,it’s the only tool that can succeed.It is a way to discuss subjects so sensitive that serious dialog may start a quarrel.For example,many believe that comedians on television are doing more today for racial and religious tolerancethan people in any other forum.4. Why was Sam late for his job?A. Because he was ill.B. Because he got up late.C. Because he was caught in a traffic jam.D. He was busy applying for a new job.5. The main idea of this passage is ________.A. Sam Maynard saved his job with humorB. humor is important in our livesC. early bird gets the wormD. humor can solve racial discriminations6. The phrase “clamped off” in Paragraph 3 means ________.A tried to hold back B. tried to setC. chargedD. gave out7. Which of the following statements can we infer from the passage?A. Many lose life’s battles for they are lacking in a sense of humor.B. It wasn’t the first time that Sam came late for his work.C. Sam was supposed to come to his office at 8:30.D. Humor is the most effective way of solving problems.CEvery racehorse has different abilities.Like humans,some are short- distance runners,while others are marathoners.Figuring out which is which and how to pace them can be the difference between failure in the finish and taking the award home.Jockeys(赛马骑师)and trainers have traditionally relied on centuries of experience and data from previous races to plan their races.Amandine Aftalion,a mathematician in Paris,thought she could add to that.Since 2013,she has been analyzing the performances of world champion runners like Usain Bolt.She has found that short-distance runners tend to win when they start strong and gradually slow down toward the finish line.Butin medium-distance races,runners perform better when they start strong,settle down,and finish with a burst of speed.Her model shows how those winning strategies maximize the energy output of muscles reliant on two different pathways:powerful aerobic(有氧的)ones that require oxygen,which can be in limited supply during a race,and anaerobic ones,which don't need oxygen but build up waste products that lead to tiredness.Aftalion wondered which strategy would be best for horses.So she and Quentin Mercier,anothermathematician,took advantage of a new GPS tracking tool inserted in French racing saddles(马鞍).The two studied patterns in many races at the Chantilly racetracks north of Paris and developed a model that accounted for winning strategies for three different races:a short one(1,300 meters),a medium one (1,900 meters),and a slightly longer one (2,100 meters),all with different starting points on the same track.The model takes into account not just different race distances,but also the size or friction fromthe track surface.The results might surprise jockeys who hold horses back early for bursts of energy in the last finish.Instead,a strong start leads to a better finish,the team found.“That doesn't mean those jockeys are wrong,though.If the start is too strong,it can bedevastatingas well,leaving the horse tired by the end,” Aftalion says.8. What should a runner do to get an award according to the text?A. Make a good start.B. Plan for the race early.C. Run slowly on the starting line.D. Try runningquickly all the time.9. What formed the basis for Aftalion's studying horse race?A The experience and data from previous horse races.B. The benefit of knowing horses' different abilities.C. The success in studying runners' winning strategies.D. The performance of horses on different race distances.10. What does the underlined word“devastating”in the last paragraph mean?A. Boring.B. Damaging.C. Astonishing.D. Puzling.11. What can we infer from the text?A. Runners have the same energy output of muscles.B. Aftalion's findings may help horses to win the race.C. What Jockeys and trainers do makes no sense to horses.D. World champion runners made a contribution to the study.DWhether for a special holiday, as a way of showing gratitude or just a way of letting someone know you care, gift giving is a universal custom Though the purpose may be similar from place to place, traditions vary widely from one country to the next. A behavior that shows respect in one place might be consideredoffensivesomewhere else. Take a look at unique gifting traditions from around the world.Here in theUS, a set of kitchen knives seems like the perfect gift idea for a wedding. However, in certain European countries likeGermany, people believe that a knife presented as a gift will cut off your friendship. There is a way to break it: Tie a coin to the knife or gift box. The receiver then returns the coin to you as a “payment”to remove the bad luck.There's a well-known Italian wedding tradition where the groom's (新郎) tie is cut into a number of tiny pieces. Wedding guests can then "buy” these tie pieces in exchange for cash. It's a fun way to give money to the new couple thatleaves guests with a wedding souvenir.As left hands are considered unclean in Indian culture, behaviors such as touching, passing money, or giving gifts are to be done with the right hand. Different from some other cultures , an odd number (奇数) of thingsor currency represents good luck. For example, £11 should be given rather than £10.InZimbabwe, it is common to directly ask for a gift. When you receive a gift without asking for it, even if the giver's family is poor, it's the worst way to reject the offering. Also, expressing thanks with actions is better than giving thanks orally (口头地).These may include jumping up and down, dancing, or whistling.12. What does the underlined word “offensive“ in paragraph 1 refer to?A. Rude.B. Creative.C. Suitable.D. Caring.13. How do people prevent friendship breaking down when giving gifts like knives?A. The guests cut the groom's tie into pieces.B. The receiver returns the coin to the giver.C. The giver gives gifts with the right hand.D. The receiver expresses thanks by dancing.14. What can we learn about the gift giving inZimbabwe?A. It is not proper to ask for a gift directly.B. It's better to reject a gift from a poor family.C. One can express thanks by writing letters.D. Showing gratitude with actions is better than words.15. Which can be a suitable title for the text?A. The Wayof Showing GratitudeB. A Fun Behavior to Respect PeopleC. Various Gift Giving TraditionsD. A Special Custom of Gift Giving第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Lucky loved to find ways to leave the confines(束缚)of her indoor living routine, which made her a masterful escape artist. Lil Bit, on the other hand, did exactly as she was told, never straying, always staying close to home…except when she came under the influence of Lucky.Whenever the two got out together, they could be seen out of sights often staying away for hours. More often than not, they'd arrive home near suppertime, covered in mud and leaves and smelling to high heaven from their afternoon outing in the woods.I remember one such occasion when they'd once again mysteriously escaped, except this time,they returned clean and no worse for wear. It wasn't until a few days later that we learned why. My wife ran into our neighbor Carl who lived a few houses down from us."I saw your two dogs the other day," Carl said with a smile."Oh, yes? I'm so sorry. They'd been so good lately, so it was such a surprise when they got out. I sure hope they didn't cause any trouble." my wife replied."Oh, no, no trouble at all. Did you have any idea where they went?""No," my wife answered."They attended my dog's funeral(葬礼)Carl said sadly."What?" Ann exclaimed, "Oh, no. I didn't know Toby had died."Yep, it died a couple days ago. I was burying him in the back lot when your two dogs came running up. They sat down not far from me while. I finished burying him, then they left. " "Wow that's amazing!" my wife replied. "Toby was Lil' Bitt father, you know.""No, I didn't know that," Carl replied, "but I guess that explains why she felt like she needed to be there. She had to say her final goodbye. "4.What words can best explain the meaning of the word "straying" underlined in Para. 1? ______A. Wandering away.B. Staying still.C. Shouting loudly.D. Disobeying impolitely.5.What difference between Lucky and Lily Bit ls suggested in the first paragraph? ______A. Their abilities were different.B. Their hobbies were different.C. Their personalities were different.D. Their physical features were different.6.What would generally happen to the two dogs after they got home from outside? ______A. They got more united.B. They looked in a mess.C. They smelled nice as usual.D. They got willing to do as told to.7.What is the author's purpose of writing the text? ______A. To show his respect for dogs.B. To be in memory of his dogs.C. To suggest learning from dogs.D. To think highly of his two dogs.【答案】【小题1】A 【小题2】C 【小题3】B 【小题4】D【解析】1.A.词义猜测题.根据文章第一段Lil Bit,on the other hand,did exactly as she was told,never straying,always staying close to home…except when she came under the influence of Lucky .另一方面,就像她被告知的那样,从不迷路,总是呆在家附近…除非她受到幸运的影响.可知意为走失;故选A.2.C.细节理解题.根据文章第一段Lucky loved to find ways to leave the confines(束缚)of her indoor living routine,which made her a masterful escape artist.Lil B it,on the other hand,did exactly as she was told,never straying,always staying close to home…except when she came under the influence of Lucky幸运的是,她喜欢设法摆脱室内生活的束缚束缚,这使她成为一个出色的逃避现实的艺术家;可知Lucky和Lily Bit ls的区别是他们的性格不同;故选C.3.A.细节理解题.根据文章第二段More often than not, they'd arrive home near suppertime, covered in mud and leaves and smelling to high heaven from their afternoon outing in the woods.更多的时候,他们会在晚饭时间到家,浑身是泥,树叶,下午在树林里郊游时闻到天堂的味道.可知这两只狗从外面回家后通常会看起来一团糟;故选A.4.D.细节理解题.根据文章最后一段"No,I didn't know that," Carl replied,"but I guess that explains why she felt like she needed to b e there.She had to say her final goodbye."不,我不知道,卡尔回答说,但我想这解释了为什么她觉得她需要去那儿.可知作者写文是为表示对自己两条狗的高度评价;故选D本文属于说明文阅读,作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了作者养的两条狗 Lucky and Lil' Bit,他们有情有义为隔壁死去的狗祭奠.考察学生的推理判断能力和联系上下文的的能力,在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实,要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断.此类的填空题一定要联系上下文,根据上下文的内容加上自己的理解,再作出正确的判断CTwo years ago, Kiirsat Ceylan was in New York to give a talk about disability rights at the U. N. Blind since birth, the Turkish man was struggling to find his hotel, holding a cane in one hand and pulling his luggage with the other."Not surprisingly, suddenly I bumped into a pole/*he says*"It was a bit bloody."The problem with a cane is that, while it can tell you what's on the grounds it doesn't help with objects at the body or head level. It wasn't the first time Ceylan had run into something,injuring himself."" I have no problem with my scars, which make me more handsome I guess," Ceylan says,laughing. "But I don't need hew ones."With WeWalk, a new smart cane, Ceylan hopes to help other blind people navigate their environments more easily*The cane uses an ultrasonic(超声波)sensor which detects objects at body or head level and gives a warning vibration. WeWalk users pair the cane with their smartphones and then use the cane's touchpad to access features like voice assistant or navigation*Before leaving home,they can plug their destination into Google Maps and get spoken directions as they walk In the future, Ceylan hopes to connect WeWalk with public transportation and ridesharing services.Assistive technology is often expensive for blind people, says Eelke Folmer, a computer science professor at the University of Nevada! Reno. "But developers fail to realize their devices are out of reach for many blind people, To Folmer, the price point-﹩ 500-- sets the WeWalk cane apart from other technologies.Ceylan sees WeWalk as part of an attempt to help blind people achieve greater freedom of movement,which he believes will give them greater access to education and jobs. The canes are already having an impact on users, Ceylan says. He recently received an email from a teacher in Ireland who had become blind as an adult. He'd been depressed and housebound. But since getting a WeWalk cane, your device forced me to go out. It became my anti- depressant. " he wrote.8.Why is a story about Kursat Ceylan given at the beginning of the text? ______A. To stress the difficulty caused by blindness.B. To show his reason for developing his cane.C. To indicate the problems with present canes.D. To show his positive and humorous character.9.What can WeWalk do at present according to the text? ______A. Provide fast Internet access.B. Start conversations with users.C. Tell users what is around them.D. Connect with ridesharing services.10.What does Folmer think is the advantage of WeWalk over other assistive technologies? ______A. It is easily affordable,B. It is easily controllable.C. It works better for users,D. It looks more attractive.11.What is the text mainly about? ______A. The increasing demand for smart canes.B. A blind man s devotion to smart canes.C. A smart cane's effects on blind people,D. An assistive technology for the blind.【答案】【小题1】B 【小题2】C 【小题3】A 【小题4】B【解析】1.B.细节理解题.根据第五段的With WeWalk, a new smart cane,Ceylan hopes to help other blind people naviga te their environments more easily.有了新的智能拐杖WeWalk,Ceylan希望能帮助其他盲人更容易地驾驭他们的环境.可知,文章提到Kursat Ceylan 的故事是想说明他研发这种拐杖的原因.故选B.2.C.细节理解题.根据第五段的With WeWalk, a new smart cane,Ceylan hopes to help other blind people naviga te their environments more easily.有了新的智能拐杖WeWalk,Ceylan希望能帮助其他盲人更容易地驾驭他们的环境.可知,WeWalk可以告诉使用者周围的情况.故选C.3.A.细节理解题,根据文章倒数第二段的句子To Folmer,the price point-﹩500-- sets the WeWalk cane apart from other technologies.对Folmer来说,500英镑的价格使WeWalk手杖有别于其他技术.可知,Folmer 认为这种拐杖和其他的拐杖比起来是使用者能负担得起.故选A.4.B.主旨大意题,根据文章的内容可知,文章介绍盲人Kursat Ceylan 一直致力于研发一直智能拐杖,帮助盲人到处自由行走.故选B.文章介绍盲人Kursat Ceylan 一直致力于研发一直智能拐杖,帮助盲人到处自由行走.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.DWhen you think of a national park, you generally picture fresh air and wild animals, right?Well, now you're going to have to add tea shops and something called "the Tube" to your definition,because London, England has signed up to be the first "National Park City."London was established by the Romans around 2,000 years ago and has been continually inhabited (居住于)since then*In all that time, however, nobody had the idea to replace all the parks with big box stores or high buildings^ which means London already has a much lower urban density (密度)than most of the worlds cities. Nowadays about a third of the city is green space,In July 2021, London announced its willingness to become the world's first National Park City,Now the city is moving toward the goal of achieving 50% green space by the year 2050 by connecting and expanding public parks, greening up unused parking lots and the private yards of existing and new houses, fixing some green roofs on existing buildings and even cutting holes in fences for wildlife to pass through."Inspired by the aims and values of our precious rural national parks, the London National Park City is basically about making life better in the capital through both small everyday things and long-term strategic thinking," Daniel Raven-Ellison, who began the campaign to make London a National Park City six years ago said in a press release. "We've been doing that in London for centuries, which is why London is so green and diverse,>fLondon will have a much easier job achieving this type of green transformation than more densely-urbanized cities like Paris and New York, which have 10% and 27% greenspace,respectively. But that doesn't mean it's not possible--the National Park City Foundation hopes to employ 25 more cities in addition to London by the year 2025. Glasgow, Scotland and Newcastle upon Tyne in northeast England are both currently considering becoming National Park Cities.12.What makes London more likely to become a national park city than other cities? ______A. Its smaller population.B. The government's efforts.C. Its less dense urbanization,D. Its citizens' great support.13.Where can we find the data on London's measures to achieve its goal? ______A. In Paragraph 1.B. In Paragraph 2.C. In Paragraph 3.D. In Paragraph 4.14.What is Daniel Raven-Ellison trying to talk about in the fourth paragraph? ______A. London's long-term strategic thinking.B.

G【答案】【小题1】B 【小题2】E 【小题3】D 【小题4】G 【小题5】F【解析】BEDGF1. B.考查细节理解和上下文之间的衔接.根据第一段中的First of all可推知,接下来描述的是第二个方面,结合后面的句子This can help if for some reason you lose your job and need to find other wo rk.可知,这是描述的当你失去工作或者需要找另一份工作时的帮助,所有B项Besides,learning can prepare us for the unexpected.具有承上启下的作用,能给你带来意料之外的结果;故选B.2. E.考查细节理解和上下文之间的衔接.根据前面一句First of all it builds your attitude towards change可知,第一点主要介绍的是建立你应对变化的态度,Being excited about change can affect others around you positively.正是介绍的积极应对变化会对周围的人产生好的影响;故选E.3. D.考查细节理解和上下文之间的衔接.后面的句子They are always looking for new experiences and do different things.说的是他们总是在寻找新的经历,做着不同的事情,与之相对应的就是D.Excellent continuous learners behave in a specific manner(优秀的持续的学习者总是行事特殊),后面的句子就是举例说明这一点.故选D.4. G.考查细节理解和上下文之间的衔接.该空的前面you have to begin with setting a clear and specific goal是说要从设定一个清晰明确的目标开始,后面又说一旦设定了目标就要怎么做,那么Knowing what you want to achieve can encourage you to keep learnings(知道自己想要实现的目标能够鼓舞你继续学习)能够和上下文相衔接.故选G.5. F.考查细节理解和上下文之间的衔接.前面do use tools to help improve your learning system是说要一定使用不同的工具来提高你的学习系统,后面又列举了几个不工具的名称,所以F项There're various tools to help you present information and learning(有各种各样的工具可以帮助你们展现信息和学习进程)符合;故选F.本文属于议论文的短文阅读.主要介绍的是不断的学习给我们在很多方面带来益处.并从几个方面进行了详细的分析和解读.七选五阅读是完成性阅读,和完形填空很类似,不同的是一个选词,一个选句子.解题时,要注意上下文语境,充分考虑信息词(选项中和空格前后句子中相同或相近七的词),选出最符合语境的句子三、完形填空(本大题共20小题,共30.0分)When I was growing up, there was a pizza shop right down the street from me, The pizza shop was(21) by a Chinese woman who opened the place around 11 :00 a. m. and closed it around midnight every day.
