河北省正定县第三中学2020学年高一英语4月月考试题
2020年高一第二学期4月考试英语试卷第Ⅰ卷第一部分阅读理解第一节(共10小题;每题2分,满分20分)AA crow (乌鸦) lived in the woods and was satisfied with his life. But his life changed when he saw a swan (天鹅). “He is so white,” he thought, “but I am so black. He must be the happiest bird in the world.”He expressed his thoughts to the swan. “Actually,” the swan replied, “I thought that I was the happiest bird until I saw a parrot (鹦鹉), who has two colors.”The crow then went to the parrot. The parrot said, “I lived a very happy life until I saw a peacock (孔雀), who has many colors. I now think the peacock is the happiest bird.”The crow then visited a peacock in the zoo. “Dear peacock,” the crow said, “you are so beautiful. Every day lots of people come to see you. You must be the happiest bird on the planet.”The peacock replied, “I always thought that I was the most beautiful and happiest bird on the planet. But because of my beauty, I am kept here.I examined the zoo very carefully and found that the crow is the only bird not kept in a cage. I hope that I could become a crow, so I could fly around freely.”That’s our problem, too. We make unnecessary comparison (对比) with others and become sad. We don’t value what we have. This leads to unhappiness. Learn to be happy with what you have instead of looking at what you don’t have. There will always be someone who has more or less than you have. Those people who are satisfied with what they have are the happiest in the world. 1.After seeing the swan, the crow ______.A.wanted to become beautifulB.decided to leave the woodsC.became less satisfied with his own lifeD.considered black as the ugliest color2.The swan thinks the parrot is the happiest bird because the parrot ________.A.has many colorsB.can fly around freelyC.attracts lots of peopleD.has one more color than him 3.What does the underlined part “our problem” in the passage refer to?paring ourselves with others.B.Feeling unhappy all the time.C.Having less than others.D.Having no freedom.4.By writing the passage, the author wants to tell us that _____.A.there are more unhappy people around usB.we should be happy with what we haveC.nothing is better than having freedomD.beauty doesn’t mean happinessB5.What are the four people in the text trying to do?A. Introduce themselves to each other.B. Look for language partners.C. Collect information online.D. Search for travel partners.6. Nissa is different from the other three people in _________.A. her learning experiencesB. her native languageC. her practicing language levelD. her purpose in learning7.If a Chinese who is in America wants to improve his English, he can get in touch with _________.A. NissaB. ChristinaC. DavidD. DanCMy only daughter, Sindu, looked frightened. Tears filled her eyes. In front of her was a bowl filled with curd rice (米糊).I asked, “Darling, why don’t you take it? It’s good for your health.”Sindu wiped her tears and said, “OK, I will eat. But Dad, if I eat this entire curd rice, will you give me whatever I want?”“Promise,” I nodded.Slowly and painfully, she finished. “I want to have my head shaved off,”she said.Neither my wife nor I could believe our ears. Immediately we said, “Impossible!”“Dad, you saw how difficult it was for me to eat that curd rice. Was it not you who told me the story of King Harishchandra?” Sindu said in tears. “Now, you are breaking your promise.”It was time for me to make a decision.“Our promise must be kept,” I said.“You are out of your mind!” shouted my wife.“If we break our promises, she will never learn to keep her own,” I said.On Monday morning, I dropped Sindu at her school. Just then, a boy ranto her. What struck me was the hairless head of that boy.“Maybe that’s the new campus fashion,” I thought.Then a lady came to me and said, “That boy is my son, Harish. He is suffering from leukemia (白血病). He lost all his hair because of the side effects of the treatment . He refused to come back to school, fearing that his classmates would make fun of him. Sindu visited him last week and promised him that she would take care of the issue. Sir, you are lucky to have such a great girl.”8.The story of King Harishchandra probably tells that _____.A.kids should eat healthy foodB.people should keep their promisesC.children should listen to their parentsD.parents should satisfy all of their kids’ needs9.Why did Sindu want to have her head shaved off?A.To show she was angry with her parents.B.To call on her classmates to help Harish.C.To follow the new campus fashion.D.To make Harish feel easy.10.Which words can be used to best describe Sindu?A.Intelligent and caring.B.Humorous and brave.C.Honest and determined.D.Patient and kind-hearted.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。
河北正定中学高二4月月考英语试卷
2020-2021学年河北正定中学高二4月月考英语试卷学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读选择“It was all his own idea, ” says Pat Peters, the 38-year-old wife of Palo Alto, California high school football coach Bob Peters, 39. Bob had just drawn up a “motherhood contract” --a document stating that for 70 days this summer he would take over the care and feeding of the couple’s four children, plus all household chores. Although he didn’t even know how to make coffee when he signed, he was quite confident. (He thought the experience would make a nice book.)After 40 of the 70 days, he was ready to give up. “I was beaten down, completely humbled (挫败的),” admits Peters. Three weeks later he spoke to the local press, stating, “Not only is motherhood a difficult task, not only is it never-ending, it is an impossible job for any normal human being.”Bob and Pat were high school sweethearts. After they were married in 1960, she worked as a secretary to help put him through university. Since then Bob has been the football and wrestling coach at Palo Alto’s Cubberley High while Pat raised the kids. Then two years ago Pat went back to work as a secretary at Cubberley. “I had been around children so much,” she sighs, “I couldn’t talk to a grown-up.” She continued to ru n the household, however----until Bob signed the contract, therefore, she decided to relax and enjoy it.Although Peters had consulted with his school’s home economics teachers and the head of the cafeteria, his meals were sometimes a disaster. “I tried to slip the butter I’d forgotten under the eggs after they were frying, ” he says. For the last three weeks, the family ate out a lot—sometimes having Macdonald’s hamburgers for lunch and dinner.As for housekeeping, a home economics teacher had told Bob that a room always looks clean if the bed is made. “I found an easier way-I shut the doors, ” he says. Soon the kids were wearing the same clothes for a week. “I made them wear their shirts inside out, and when we went to pick up Pat at work they turned them right side out so they would look clean.”Now that Bob has publicly admitted he was wrong, he is routinely sharing the child-raising and household tasks with Pat. The tentative(暂时的)title of his book about the summer is taken from something he shouted at the kids one day.1.The couple signed the contract because _______.A.Pat complained a lot about her doing the housework all by herselfB.Bob loved taking care of children and wanted his wife to have a good restC.they agreed that husband and wife should share household tasksD.Bob thought it easy to take care of the family and wanted the experience for a book 2.It was agreed that if Bob failed to keep to the contract, he would have to _______. A.pay a certain amount of moneyB.admit publicly he was wrong about motherhoodC.say sorry to his wife Now that Bob has publicly admitted he was wrong, he is routinely sharing the child-raising and household tasks with Pat.D.do all the housework for years3.What can we learn about Pat Peters?A.She was hard-working and selfless.B.She was pretty and kind-hearted.C.She was tired of the child-raising and household tasks.D.She did not love Bob any longer.4.Which of the following can best end the news story?A.“Wait till your mother gets home!”B.“My experience of being a mother.”C.“I’m proud of you all, my dear!”D.“Motherhood: an impossible job for anyone.”Should parents ever hit their children?Research suggests many of us are likely to respond “no”, and public support for spanking(打屁股)has been falling over the years.But surveys also show that 75 percent to nearly 90 percent of parents admit to spanking their child at least once.I was raised in a zero-tolerance home for disrespect, and my parents often turned to physical punishment.And, no, I don' t feel I was damaged by it.Nothing is more annoying than watching ill-mannered behavior from children.But there is data to suggest that a return to old-school spanking isn't the answer.Two years ago, Newsweek reported that it had found data suggesting that teens whose parents used physical punishment were more likely to become aggressive.Murray Straus, professor at the University of New Hampshire in America, has studied thetopic of children and spanking for decades.He said that children who were physically punished have lower IQs than their peers.It may be that children with lower IQs were more likely to get spanked, but the punishment may have been counterproductive (反作用的)to their mental development, as well.Some researchers make the argument that occasional open-handed smacks (用巴掌打)on the bottom are not only harmless but can have some benefit.Last year, Marjorie Gunnoe, a psychologist at Calvin College, studied teens who have never spanked.There are a greater number of children growing up without ever having been physically punished.Gunnoe’s research suggests they don' t turn out any better than those who were sometimes spanked.There are some parents who simply cannot control their tempers (脾气).But I still believe that the best parents are the ones who are able to offer fair and firm discipline without ever turning to physical punishment.5.According to the first three paragraphs, the author was probably hit by her parentswhen .A.they were dissatisfied with her gradeB.she showed no respect for the elderC.they cannot control their temperD.their discipline turns out to be not strict enough6.According to Murray Straus, children who are physically punished ____ __.A.are less aggressive toward others when they get olderB.have slower physical developmentC.benefit from occasional spankingD.may develop lower IQs than their peer7.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?A.40 percent of children grow up without ever being spankedB.Children who suffer less physical punishment are better studentsC.Occasional open-handed spanking on the bottom are mentally harmful D.Researchers disagree over whether smacking is mentally harmful to childrenAmong various programmes, TV talk shows have covered every inch of space on daytime television. And anyone who watches them regularly knows that each one is different in style.But no two shows are more opposite in content, while at the same time standing out above the rest, than the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey shows.Jerry Springer c ould easily be considered the king of “rubbish talk”. The contents on his show are as surprising as they can be. For example, the show takes the ever-common talk show titles of love, sex, cheating, and hate, to a different level. Clearly, the Jerry Springer show is about the dark side of society, yet people are willing to eat up the troubles of other people’s lives.Like Jerry Springer, Oprah Winfrey takes TV talk show to its top. But Oprah goes in the opposite direction. The show is mainly about the improvement of society and different quality of life. Contents are from teaching your children lessons, managing your work week, to getting to know your neighbors.Compared to Oprah, the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being poured into society. J erry ends every show with a “final word”. He makes a small speech about the entire idea of the show. Hopefully, this is the part where most people will learn something very valuable.Clean as it is, the Oprah show is not for everyone. The show’s main viewe rs are middleclass Americans. Most of these people have the time, money, and ability to deal with life’s tough problems. Jerry Springer, on the other hand, has more of a connection with the young adultsof society. These are 18-to-21-year-olds whose main troubles in life include love, relationship, sex, money and drug. They are the ones who see some value and lessons to be learned through the show’s exploitation.8.Compared with other TV talk shows, both the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey are____.A.more interesting B.more formalC.more detailed D.unusually popular9.Which of the following is likely to be a topic of the Oprah Winfrey show?A.Family income planning. B.Nation hatred.C.A new type of robot. D.Street accident.10.We can learn from the passage that the two talk shows_____.A.have become the only ones of its kindB.attract different peopleC.appear at different times of the dayD.exploit the weaknesses in human nature11.Which statement about the passage is Not true? ______A.Jerry Springer show is like poisonous waste, so nothing can be learnt from it.B.The two kinds of talk shows are opposite in content.C.Opera Winfrey show is helpful for those middleclass AmericansD.Jerry Springer show attracts those who are young and in trouble.The government of Norway is planning to build an unusual storage center on an island in the Arctic Ocean. The place would be large enough to hold about two million seeds. The goal is to present all crops known to scientists. The British magazine New Scientist published details of the plan last month. The structure will be designed to protect the world’s food supply against nuclear war, climate change and other possible threats. It will be built in a mountain on the Norwegian island of Spitsbergen. The mountain is less than one thousand kilometers from the North Pole, the northernmost position on earth.An international group called the Global Crop Diversity Trust is working on the project. The director of the group, Cary Fowler, spoke to New Scientist. He said the project would let the world rebuild agriculture if, in his word, “the worst came to the worst”. Norway is expected to start work next year. The project is expected to cost three million dollars. Workers will drill (钻孔)deep in the side of a sandstone mountain. Temperatures in the area never rise above 0ºC.The seeds will be protected behind walls a meter thick and high-security door.The magazine report says the collection will represent the products of ten thousand years of farming. Most of the seeds at first will e from collections at seed banks in Africa, Asia and Latin America. To last a long time, seeds need to be kept in very low temperatures. Workers will not be present all the time. But they plan to replace the air inside the storage space each winter. Winter temperatures on the island are about eighteen degrees below 0ºC.The cold weather would protect the seeds even if the air could not be replaced.Mr. Fowler says the proposed structure will be the world’s safest gene bank. He says the plant seeds would only be used when all other seeds are gone for some reason. Norway first put forward the idea in the 1980s. But safety concerns delayed the plan. At that time, the Soviet Union was meeting in Rome of the Food and Agriculture Organization.12.The project is meant to ______.A.increase the world’s food output in the futureB.carry out some scientific experiments on plant genesC.build an exhibition centre of the world’s plant seedsD.protect crop seeds from dying out in case of possible disasters13.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the above passage?A.The government of Norway will perform the project alone.B.Seeds to be collected there were produced ten thousands years ago.C.Spitsbergen is chosen because it is free of the nuclear war forever.D.Temperature is a major consideration when choosing the storage place.14.We can infer from the text that _______.A.Norway had meant to build the storage centre about 20 years before.B.The storage center will greatly promote world agricultureC.People will get newly-developed seeds from the center every year.D.There haven’t been any seed storage centres in the world before.15.What is probably the best title of the passage?A.The Best Place to Store SeedsB.Noah’s Ark(诺亚方舟)of Plant Seeds in PlanC.Concerns of World Food SupplyD.A New Way to Feed the World二、七选五16.Being angry doesn’t really solve much, but what people do when they feel angry is important. The goal is to calm down and try to solve what is bothering you. This is hard for some kids and adults, too. instead of calming down, some kids might keep getting more and more upset until they explode like volcano(火山)!17.Their anger might be so strong that they lose control of their temper. They may act in ways unacceptable and hurtful. People may say that someone has trouble controlling their temper. 18.Some kids might get so angry that they scream at their parents, break. something, or even worse, hit their brothers or sisters.19.However, it’s not for a kid to do any of thos e things. Kids don’t want to act in this way, but sometimes angry feelings can be hard to manage. So what to do?Well, the good news is that kids don’t just have to keep making the same mistakes over and over again. 20.Imagine your temper as a puppy inside you that needs some training. Thepuppy is not bad —— it will probably turn out to be a great dog. It just needs to learn some rules because, right now, that puppy is causing some problems to you.A.Everybody gets angry sometimes.B.You don’t want to cau se trouble.C.Kids should be allowed to express their feelings,even angry ones.D.You can train you temper.E.In fact,they usually mean that a kid behaves badly when feeling angry.F.Instead of thinking of the person you’re angry with,think of something el se.G.Some kids get angry more often or more easily than some other kids.三、完形填空Nick was not the kind of boy I had expected to spend my summer with.

But with patience and support, Nick took one step up the slide each day.

James Dean, who died at the age of 25 in September 1955, starred in just three movies before he died in a car accident. They are Rebel Without a Cause, East of Eden and Giant. Yet, he will star in a new movie about the Vietnam War thanks to digital technology, which generates(产生) images of James Dean by computer.The idea that one of the movies' most beloved former stars would be recreateddigitally for a new film has been met with criticism(批评). Captain America actor Chris Evanscalled the plansto use Dean’s image in the film disrespectful.However, Mark Roesler, the chairman of CMG said, “Dean has more than 183,000 followers on Instagram, and that he is still important today. He was known as Hollywood’s ‘rebel( 叛逆)’who famously said ‘if a man can bridge the gap(沟壑) between life and death, if he can live after he’s dead, then maybe he is a great man.” Roesler added, “What was considered rebellious in the 50's is very different from what is rebellious today, and we feel confident that he would support this modern day act of rebellion.”Anton Ernst, the film’s director, said, “I respect Dean’s life and history. The movie is one of hope and love. There are still a lot of James Dean's fans worldwide and there would always be critics. All we can do is to tell a great story.”Ernst added, “The Dean family views this as his fourth movie, a movie he never got to make. We do not want to let his fans down.”4.Which film did Chris Evans star in?A.Rebel Without a Cause. B.Captain America.C.East of Eden.

B.Doubtful. C.Careful. D.Uninterested.CCould the device, smartphone or PC, which you are using affect the moral(道德的) decisions you make when using it? To test it, researchers presented multiple dilemmas to a sample set of 1,010 people. The participants were assigned a device at random.One case of the questions participants were asked is the classic “trolley(有轨电车) problem”: A runaway trolley is headed towards five people tied up on a set of train tracks. You can do nothing, resulting in the deaths of five people, or push a man off a bridge, which will stop the trolley. The practical response is to kill one man to save five lives, which 33.5 percent of smartphone users chose, compared to 22.3 percent of PC users.“What we round in our study is that when people used a smartphone to viewclassic moral problems, they were more likely to make more unemotional, reasonable decisions when presented with a highly emotional dilemma, “Dr Albert Barque-Duran, the lead author of the study, told City, University of London. “This could be due to the increased time pressure often present with smartphones and also the increased psychological distance which can occur when we use such devices compared to PCs.”As for why the researchers started this study, Dr Barque-Duran noted, “Due to the fact that our social lives, work and even shopping take place online, it is important to think about how the contexts where we typically face moral decisions and are asked to engage in moral behavior have changed, and the impact this could have on the hundreds of millions of people who use such devices daily. “It’s clear that we need more research on how our devices affect our moral decision-making because we’re using screens at an everincreasing rate. 8.Why did the author mentionthe trolley problem?A.To introduce a difficult problem to readers.B.To introduce the aim of carrying out the study.C.To show an example of the questions in the study.D.To show the difficulty in dealing with dilemmas.9.How do the smartphone users of the study behave in dealing withemotional dilemmas? A.Calmly. B.Cruelly.C.Carelessly. D.Enthusiastically.10.Dr Albert believes that compared with PCs,smartphones .A.help people bear more pressureB.help people make decisions quicklyC.make people feel more mentally distantD.make people stay happier to solve problems11.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?A.The importance of smartphones.B. The significance of the study.C. How to make moral decisions.D. What affects people’s daily life.DOne way to prevent anxiety from getting out of control is to recognize its benefits. It is a mistake to think that we'd make better decisions if only we keep our feelings under control. Instead, a mix of feelings like anxiety and logical( 合逻辑的) thinking leads to sound decision- making. It's true that there is plenty of research showing that higher levels of anxiety can make us more likely to avoid risks in our decision-making. There is also evidence that anxiety can increase the attention you pay to relevant information.Recent studies have shown that people who are anxious about their relationship (for example, they fear to be abandoned) tend to be better at recognizing people who tell lies and are more likely to raise the alarm when danger is present.In the real world though, it's worth realizing that feeling anxious once in a while is extremely common. It communicates to others that you care, and what's more, it's probably a sign that you are intelligent. At least two published studies have identified that people who score higher on measures of anxiety also tend to perform better on intelligence tests. This seems reasonable: if you're a thinker, you are sure to be always thinking about the future and imagine possible plots, including bad ones.The important thing, if you are a worrywart ( 杞人忧天者) , is not to let your fear destroy your dreams. And don’t bury your head in the sand. Instead,act on your fears —do the research as well as preparation, so rather than walking blindly into what you fear, you meet the challenge in full readiness.When anxiety beats you, or casts a shadow over your life, this is a serious problem. No one is denying that. But like everyday anxiety of this kind that you feel before a presentation or interview, you needn't see it as your enemy. Anxiety is an important feeling, developed through evolution. As for people who are fairly anxious by nature, there is reason for cheer, too. Your nerves (神经紧张) are a sign of your watchfulness. Listen to them and act on them. Then you can turn your nervousness into your advantage.12.What can we infer from the first paragraph about anxiety?A.It can enable us to be more focused.B.It can stop us from thinking logically.C.It can make us more willing to take risks.D.It can be the only reason for all baddecisions. 13.What can we learn fromthe passage?A.Anxious people are less sensitive to danger.B.Anxious people have difficulty discovering liars.C.Feeling anxious is more likely to put people at risk.D.Feeling anxious occasionally is a sign ofintelligence. 14.How should we deal with anxietyin the author's opinion?A.Regard it as our enemy. B.Take action to control it.C.Avoid being defeated by it. D.Treat it as a minorfeeling. 15.What is the theme of the passage?A.Effective ways to prevent anxiety. B.Unexpected benefits of anxiety. C.Tips on how to keep a good mood. D.Common misunderstandings about anxiety.EMany Beijing residents go to great lengths to avoid breathing the city’s smoggy air, especially when it reaches critical pollution levels, but one local firm decided that canning(灌装) and selling this poor quality air as a souvenir(纪念品) would be a great idea. Believe it or not, he was right.After seeing a number of companies achieve commercial success by canning fresh air from countries like France, Canada or Australia and selling it in China, Dominic Johnson-Hill, a British-born citizen of Beijing and owner of the Plastered 8 souvenir shop, decided to turn the idea on its head and sell canned Beijing air throughout China and abroad.“I’d seen people going crazy to buy canned air from Canada and Australia, so I thought it was time to push business the other way,” the entrepreneur said. “They’re perfect gifts! What else are you going to take home when you go home from Beijing? A roast duck? A Plastered T-shirt? These cans are light, portable, you can just imagine someone’s face when they unwrap (打开) it for Christmas.”The few mouth-fulls of Beijing air come in standard tin cans featuring a couple of city landmarks as well as a bitter description of the contents: “a unique mix of nitrogen, oxygen and some other stuff”. The ironic ( 讽刺的) souvenirs cost 28 RMB (US $4) and are available at the Plastered 8 shop, as well as on its online shop. But if you’re actually considering buying some, you'd better ask shop in advance, as they are virtually flying off the shelves. Johnson-Hill said that his shop is selling hundreds of Beijing air cans every day.Personally, the well-sold can probably is an awakening for the public to be concerned about the living conditions. Yet one thing that’s not particularly clear is whether the air is really collected from Beijing, as the cans are labeled as “Made in Shenzhen”. There’s a big chance that’s just a kind of Plastered 8 humor, as they also list “Choking Hazard”and “May have unidentified objects inside.” as warnings.Anyway, it is probably a unique way to make people realize the importance of protecting the environment.16.What contributes to Dominic’s idea of canning and selling the poor qualityair?A.Try to get used to it. B.Sell it all over the world.C.Can it as a souvenir. D.Try to push business theother way. 17.How may one feel when receiving canned Beijing air for Christmas?A.Satisfied. B.Surprised.C.Frightened. D.Refreshed.18.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “stuff”in Paragraph 4? A.Liquids B.ObjectsC.Minerals D.Risks19.What do the underlined words in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Do something opposite.B. Give others a surprise.C. Make a big profit.D. Put forward astrange idea. 20.What can we infer from the passage?A.The canned Beijing air may harm people who buy it.B.The Plastered 8 souvenir shop is famous for its humour.C.People should make efforts to protect the environment.D.Dominic Johnson-Hill likes the poor quality air in Beijing.第二部分语言知识运用(共 20 小题;每小题 1.5 分,满分 30 分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
2020届河北正定中学高三英语月考试卷及参考答案
2020届河北正定中学高三英语月考试卷及参考答案第一部分阅读(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AYou have to praise the smoothness(顺畅)of ants on the move. No matter how many of them are going toward a place, there's never a hold-up. A new research paper shows how ants keep traffic flowing by changing their behavior to meet changing conditions.For their experiments, researchers from the University of Toulouse focused on Argentine ants, animals that often move from colony(群落)to colony depending on where the food is. Making use of Argentine ants' talent for fast travel, the researchers built bridges connecting their colonies. The bridges were different in width from a fifth to three-quarters of an inch. The colonies, too, were of different sizes, ranging from 400 to more than 25,000 ants.Then the researchers sat back andmonitoredthe traffic. To their surprise, even when those narrower bridges were full of ants, there were no "traffic accidents". "When the number of ants on the bridge increased, ants seemed to be able to understand the situation and adjusted(调整)their speed accordingly to avoid making the traffic flow stop. "the authors note. "Moreover, ants avoided entering a busy road and made sure that the bridge was never too packed to cross.”The lesson for humans? The traffic problem may lie in our inability to adjust our driving habits for the good of the whole. Driving is fun when there are few cars on the road. Then the traffic moves very slowly. And yet, some impatient driver still acts like he's alone on the road.The research suggests that projects, like the ever-widening of highways, may never free us from traffic jams. As long as we drive along with our own habits, no matter how many other people are on the road, we'll always end up in a traffic jam. Indeed, less space may actually be a good thing. It leaves less room for individual choice and forces us to take a page from the driving book of ants.1. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A. The results of the experiments.B. The purpose of the experimentsC. The preparation of the experiments.D. The requirements of the experiments2. What does the underlined word "monitor" in paragraph 3 probably mean?A. watch and check.B. seek and improveC. design and planD. discuss and practise3. What is the best title for the text?A. Is widening highways a solution?B. Why don't ants need traffic lights?C. Can we learn safe driving from ants?D. What can ants teach us about traffic jams?BYour best friend that follows you around when the sun comes out - your shadow - doesn’t serve an important function like your heart or brain, but what if you could use shadows to create electricity? When using solar panels (电池板) that are powered by light, shadows can be boring because it means electricity can’t be created. However, researchers from the National University of Singapore have engineered a way to create power from the shadows present everywhere.A team of the university created a machine that can collect energy from shadows. It is created by placing a thin coating of gold onto silicon (硅). Like in a normal solar panel, when put in light, the silicon electrons (电子) become energized and the energized electrons then jump from the silicon to the gold. The voltage (电压) of the part of the machine that is placed in the light increases to the dark part and the electrons in the machine flow from high to low voltage. They are sent through an external circuit (外电路) creating a current that can be used to power another machine. The greater the contrast between light and dark, more energy is provided by the machine.The team isworking on improving the performance of the machine, borrowing approaches from solar panels to gather light. Increasing the amount of light the machines can receive allows them to better make use of shadows, as well as developing shadow energy collecting panels that can successfully gather from indoor lighting. The team is also researching the use of other materials other than gold to drop the price of the machine, meaning they would be more cost effective and easier to apply in society.Shadows are present everywhere and perhaps one day in the future we will be able to collect energy from them by placing the shadow-effect energy machine around the world in places that have been considered unfit for solar panels to work, or indoors. “A lot of people think that shadows are useless,” Tan says, but “anything can be useful, even shadows.”4. What is Paragraph 1 mainly about?A. Your best friend always stays with you after the sunrise.B. The shadow has the same function as the heart and brain.C. Shadows can stop solar panels from creating electricity.D. Researchers have found a way to create power from shadows.5. What is the key working principle of the machine mentioned in the text?A. The silicon produces electricity when it is in the light.B. The gold produces power with the help of the silicon.C. The energized electrons flow from high to low voltage.D. An external circuit creates current using another machine.6. How does the team improve the performance of the machine?A. Using solar panels in the machine.B. Increasing the amount of light received.C. Developing light energy collecting panels.D. Bringing down the price of gold.7. Which of the following is the best place to apply the machine?A. A gym.B. A park.C. A farm.D. A playground.CSome years ago I was offered a writing assignment that would require three months of travel through Europe.I had been abroad a couple of times, but I could hardly claim to know my way around the continent. Moreover, my knowledge of foreign languages was limited to a little college French.I hesitated. How would I, unable to speak the language, totally unfamiliar with local geography or transportation system?It seemed impossible, and with considerable regret. Suddenly a thought ran through my mind: you can't learn if you don't try. So I accepted the assignment.There were some bad moments. But by the time I had finished the trip I was an experienced traveler. And ever since, I have never hesitated to head for even the most remote of places, without guides or even advanced bookings, confident that somehow I will manage.The point is that the new, along with the different, is almost scary by definition. But each time you try something, you learn, and as the learning piles up, the world opens to you.I've learned to ski at 40, and flown up the Rhine River in a balloon. And I know I'll go on doing such things. It's not because I'm braver or more daring than others. I'm not. But I'll accept anxiety as another name for challenge and I believe I can accomplish wonders.8. The author accepted the assignment because_________.A. he had never travelled abroad beforeB. he hardly knew any foreign languagesC. he was familiar with any other country in EuropeD. he would learn something new and different by trying9. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The author had been abroad only twice.B. The author thought the trip was hard but worthwhile.C. The author admitted that anything different was terrible.D. The author must be good at doing research and making interviews.10. We can infer from the text that the author is_______.A. awkwardB. generousC. stubbornD. brave11. What's the best title of the text?A. An Interesting Trip AbroadB. My First Writing AssignmentC. Ready to Try and ChallengeD. How to Be Daring and Brave.DNina Wygant, 11, sits in front of a long table in a classroom that looks more like a trendy coffee shop than an elementary school classroom. Some of her fifth-grade classmates at Hopewell Memorial Junior High School sit on high-top chairs at counters. Others choose to sit in club chairs or soft bean bags in comfortable. "I like it because it gives us an environment we like or need to settle down and read a book that we would like to concentrate on instead of having desks and being all quiet," said Vivian Garcia, 10. “You can just space out and have your own little area. I find it very amazing that you can pick your own books instead of being told what to read.”That’s the end goal, said teacher Heather Shadish. Reading has always been a passion for this English language arts and science teacher, a passion she instills(灌输)in her pupils. Back then, in her literature class in graduate school at Chatham University, a professor read aloud the first chapter ofBecause of Winn-Dixieby Kate DiCamillo, a Newbery Medalist. "That was the moment I knew I wanted to some day teach reading. There was a spark there. I just felt these are the kind of books I need to share with kids ---the books that are going to make them feel something and make them fall in love with reading instead of reading being achore.”But information in children's workbooks is limited, so they open tablets and connect to Epic - a digital library that's free to educators and librarians, but $7.99 a month for parents — giving kids unlimited access to approximately 35,000 books(both print and audio), quizzes and videos to enhance learning.“Epic gives students access to information not found in a textbook and presents it in a more interesting way," she said.12. What does Vivian think of the reading experience?A. She favors club chairs and free discussion.B. She feels comfortable to be told what to read.C. She enjoys the environment and reading choice.D. She finds it easy to pick a book in a crowded area.13. What does the underlined word “chore" in paragraph 2 mean?A. Task.B. Process.C. Habit.D. Skill.14. What can children get from Epic?A. Free audio books.B. Tasks on reading levels.C. Advice from educators.D. Useful learning resources.15. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. A Teacher's New Reading MethodB. Pupils' love of Reading RoomC. Options of Teaching ReadingD. Easy Access to Digital Reading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。

In the classic TV production, one scene in particular impressed me: when Mrs. Darling puts her children into bed. As she turns off the last of the night light, she takes one last look at the bedroom and says, “Dear night lights, protect my sleeping children.” As a mother, I know how much she loves her children.It has been several weeks since we took our daughter to college and she seems to be adjusting well after a short period of homesickness. For us, though, it’s another story. Like most parents, I love checking in on my children at night. But now she’s gone, and I find nighttimes the hardest. I miss her most at night.For us moms, seeing Toy Story 3 only made the sadness worse as we watched the character Andy, who is the same age as our kids, say goodbye to his childhood as he prepares to leave for college. And it’s not just “first-time” parents like me. Two moms who have kids already well into college said the separation didn’t get any easier. “You feel likesomething ha s been taken away from inside you” said one of them.I imagine things will get easier with time, especially as I see my daughter adjust to college life. Meanwhile, as I keep my cell phone close to me in bed and text my daughter goodnight and sweet dreams every night, I like to think that messages serve as a night light that keeps her safe.24. The writer was deeply impressed by the scene in Peter Pan because ________.A. she watched the scene with her daughterB. the scene was very exciting and interestingC. the scene taught her and her daughter a good lessonD. the scene showed a mother’s deep love for her children25.

To waitfor her daughter’s calls.C.To wait for her daughter’s messages.D. To call her daughter any time.CA machine that takes sweat-laden (浸满汗水的) clothes and turns the sweat into drinking water is in use in Sweden. The machine makes the clothes turn round quickly, heats them to remove the sweat, and then passes the steam through a kind of special material to make purified water.Since it has been brought into use, its creators say more than 1000 people have drunk others’ “sweat” in Gothenburg. They add the liquid is cleaner than local tap water.The device was built for the United Nations’ child-focused charity UNICEF to promote a campaign highlighting the fact that 780 million people in the world lack access to clean water.“It uses a technique called membrane distillation (膜蒸馏),” he told the BBC. “We use a special kind of material that only lets steam through but keeps bacteria, salts, clothing fibers and other things out. They have somethingsimilar to the International Space Station, but our machine is cheaper to build. The amount of water it produces depends on how sweaty the person is, but one person’s T-shirt typically produces 10ml, about a mouthful.”The device has been put on show at the Gothia Cup-the world’s largest international youth football tournament. Mattias Ronge, chief executive of Stockholm-basedadvertising agency Deportivo, said the machine had helped raise awareness for UNICEF, but in reality had its limitations.“People haven’t produced as much sweat as we hoped –right now the weather in Gothenburg is lousy,” Mattias Ronge said. “So we’ve equipped the machine with exercise bikes and volunteers are cycling like crazy. Even so, the demand for sweat is greater than the supply. And the machine will never be produced in large numbers, since there are better solutions out there su ch as water purifying pills.”28. Which of the following is the disadvantage of the sweat machine?A.The amount of water the machine produces is rather limited.B. It takes too long for the machine to produce water.C. It costs a large amount of money to build the machine.D. The water processed by the machine is not clean enough.29. UNICEF is mentioned in the text to ________.A. show how the sweat machine worksB. show the importance of the United NationsC. explain why the sweat machine was inventedD. tell us who invented the sweat machine30. What did Mattias Ronge think of the sweat machine?A. It could only be used in summer.B. It was not worth popularizing.C. It did not work at all.D. The water it produced tasted sweet.31. The text is written mainly to tell us that______________.A. 780 million people in the world lack access to clean waterB. a machine which turns sweat into drinking water is inventedC. a better solution to purifying dirty water is discoveredD. the pill which turns dirty water into clean water is producedDYesterday night, over a dinner with my elder brother’s family, a topic of happiness came up. My wife, Marla, a psychologist, was sharing Csikszentmihalyi’s concept of “flow” with us. Marla explained that according to the research on flow, people are happiest when they are absorbed in a task that is just challenging enough for them to experience a sense of mastery(熟练).A few moments later my brother, Yuri, offered the following opinion: “The first and only, necessary and sufficient factor for happiness is to stop associating happiness with pleasure. The two — happiness and pleasure —have nothing to do with each other.” This morning, with my cup of coffee, I searched through a pile of books on my bedside table and—at the bottom—found a book by Bertrand Russell, I started reading but didn’t finish. In it, I found the following thought:“The human animal, like others, is adapted to acertain amount of struggle for life, and when 【…】his whims (突发奇想) 【are satisfied】 without effort, the mere absence of effort from his life removes an essential ingredient of happiness.”The conversation came full circle: people are happiest when they are in a state of flow( C sikszentmihalyi’s language )…which is the effortful devotion in a moment…which has nothing to do with pleasure.Indeed, as Yuri insisted : happiness–as–pleasure is a myth; the association between happiness and pleasure is nothing but a semantic(语义的) habit; psychologically, the two—happiness and pleasure—are arguably different; and breaking up this association between pleasure and happiness might, in fact, be a powerfully first step in pursuit of happiness.32. The author wrote this text mainly to_______.A. look back on the happy nightB. advise readers to read Bertrand RussellC. tell readers how to be happiestD. show different opinions on family gathering33. According to Marla, people feel happiest whenthey______.A. get what they want without effortB. master the happiness around themC. involve themselves in a challenging taskD. experience things that can bring pleasure34. What writing style is used by the author to explain happiness?35. The best title of the text may probably be______.A. The struggle for lifeB. Happiness as pleasureC. A topic over the dinnerD.

I was in physical recovery from the accident and suddenly all of my old hurts started coming up. I found myself crying on the floor of my apartment.I don't want you to bleed with me or to pity me. But I also don't want to gloss my reality. And the truth is, beneath the shiny photos you see on the Internet, I'm still a work in progress. I'm not perfect. Like all of us, I'm doing the best I can. Making the best choices I can. Back to the evening when I found myself lying on the floor.What happened next? I started writing.There was a TV show I absolutely loved. I started writing fan fiction. It provided a beautiful place of escape from the thoughts swimming in my head. The depression started to lift. I started to feel like myself again.After completing a four-part fan fiction totaling around 12,000 words, I had an idea. I should write a novel to give a hand to those like me.I continued writing, having no idea where it would lead. I didn't know I would publish it but, after much resistance on my part I finally made the decision to publish the book under my own name. No pen name. No hiding on the deep bowels of the internet.And so here we are. The day before the release of the book. Sure, readers will enjoy the twists and turns. And I can see myself in the character. But that's not my real motivation. I wrote it to help people. To give them a place to belong to. A place to talk about this fictional world. The very same thing that saved me last year.If the story provides this to just one person, I've done my job.4. What does the underlined word “gloss” in Paragraph 3 mean?A. Cover.B. Expose.C. Realize.D. Face.5. What really motivated the author to write a novel?A. To earn a living.B. To follow his dream.C. To help people with depression.D. To find a place to belong to.6. What do you think of the writer?A. Perfect.B. Cautious.C. Shy.D. Honest.7. What can be the best title for the passage?A. My HobbyB. Writing Can HelpC. A Moving StoryD. My New BookCWith a flock of birds, a group member can often be seen high in the tree acting as a lookout while the rest feed on the ground below. When a predator approaches, the lookout sounds the alarm.To the casual observer, it may appear that the lookout is acting for the good of the greater group, but a new study suggests that the lookout – called a sentinel(哨兵) – may actually be working for itself.While sentinel behavior among groups of birds has been observed, Dr. Roni Ostreiher and Professor Aviad Heifetz recently began researching the sentinel behavior of floaters –birds that have either been cast out or for other reasons decide to go it alone. What they found was that floaters also have similar lookout activities and will sound an alarm call if an enemy approaches.This suggests that while the group benefits from having a lookout, the instinct to act as the lookout is motivated not by the group but by self-preservation. The sentinel may simply be trying to scare away its enemy instead of warning other birds down below.It might be easy to understand that when a floater displays sentinel behavior, the bird is acting for itself. However, birds in groups may have less selfish motives since the birds appear to alternate as lookouts. “There are some adult group members who act as sentinels more often than others. As far as we understand, acting as a sentinel is not a duty. Those who sentinel less often are not punished,” Ostreiher said.He also noted that the sentinel's primary purpose is to gather information about its surroundings –the presence of a neighboring group, changes in food sources and even weather –not keeping lookout for approaching enemies.“We do not know what motivates them to stop eating and climb up to a tree branch and start to sentinel,” Ostreiher added. He and Heifetz are now focused on understanding what happens after an alarm call is sounded.8. What is the finding of the study?A. Birds look out just for their own safety.B. Sentinel behavior is unique to birds.C. Birds have a strong sense of danger.D. Birds react quickly when hearing an alarm.9. What can we infer about a floater?A. It is often a selfish bird.B. It benefits from other birds.C. It lives and feeds on its own.D. Its duty is to protect other birds.10. What is Ostreiher's opinion on birds' sentinel behavior?A. It is unnecessary for a floater.B. It is every bird's responsibility.C. Birds seem to watch out in turn.D. It is completely selfless behavior.11. In which part of a newspaper can you find this passage?A. Life.B. Health.C. Technology.D. Nature.DIn New York, students at 18 schools participate in a program called We Future Cycle. Started by Anna Giordano in 2020, it teaches kids to recycle, compost(堆肥), and reduce food waste.Lunch areas at the participating schools are equipped with three clearly marked bins – compost, recycle and share. While the first two are common in schools, the third is rare, where kids can put their unwanted drinks, fruits, and even untouched sandwiches. Items in the container are available for any student that wants them. Whatever remainsat the end of the day is donated to the food bank. Giordano says the three bins have helped reduce the number of trash bags from an average of 22 to just 2!To ensure kids adopt similar habits at home, the non-profit has created extensive curriculum to educate families about the importance of sorting waste into the proper streams of recycling, composting, trash and food to donate They also urge parents to have open conversations with their kids about food choices.But, as we’re all aware, kids aren’t the only ones that waste food - Adults are equally bad, if not worse! To prevent that, Josh Treuhaft founded Salvage Supper club in 2020. The occasionally organized dinners promise people a tasty multi-course meal for a mere $50 USD per person. It is also a plan to save waste because the delicious food is made from vegetables that are past their prime and, therefore, headed for the trash bin.The other catch? Customers have to eat their meals inside a dumpster (大型垃圾装卸车)! The place, of course, is totally clean. It is just a symbolic gesture. In addition to helping people rethink their actions, Treuhaft also helps them do good by donating part of the profits to non-profits devoted to fighting against food waste.12. What is the aim of We Future Cycle?A. To collect money and food for poor children.B. To educate children to treasure and save food.C. To encourage children to share food with others.D. To inspire children to learn agriculture knowledge.13. Which word can be used to describe We Future Cycle?A. Successful.B. Official.C. Impractical.D. World-famous.14. What do we know about Salvage Supper club?A. It is mainly aimed for adults.B. It is founded by Anna Giordano.C. It provides free supper for people.D. It has enjoyed great success in many schools.15. What is the reason for people eating in a dumpster?A. It is money- saving.B. People like to be unique.C. It can remind people of food waste problem.D. A dumpster is much cleaner than a restaurant.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。
