D．Grant W.BWith pet ownership becoming more popular, being saddened by the loss of a beloved pet is becoming a terrible headache. Li Peng, a woolen felt （织物）craftswoman, has found a unique way to preserve the memory of dead pets by creating realistic woolen images.Li’s journey i nto this craft is accidental. During her college years, she majored in e-commerce and worked part time at a pet store. One day, while visiting a website, she came upon a small fox made entirely of wool. Astonished at its delicacy, she set off on a self-taught journey inthis art form. In late 2019, Li Peng made the firm decision to start her own business and pursue wool felting as a full-time profession.While a video showcasing the work may only take a few minutes to watch, the actual process is far more intricate. The three-dimensional creations feature genuine fur, lifelike glass eyes and tiny whiskers （胡须）, each one individually secured by hand. To achieve a vivid effect, she repeatedly sticks layers of wool with a needle, winding the loose fibers together to create solid felted shapes. The key is massive patience.The handcrafted creations satisfy her desire to convey love. The majority of her customers are pet owners who have experienced the loss of their beloved companions. They send Li photographs and even their pets’ hair, hoping to freeze the appearance of their furry friends through her wool felting models. Fascinated by the deep bond between people and their pets, she is committed to grabbing and investing these emotions in her artworks. And it turns out that the career is a success. Orders are often scheduled for one year later, and she has gained substantial attention through social media.Reflecting on her work, Li expresses her desire to create meaningful pieces using the warm material, offering a heartfelt gift of warmth to the beautiful souls of this world.（）4．What inspired Li Peng to take up wool felting as a careerA．A temporary job at a pet shop. B．Her self-study art course.C．A discovery of an alternative to fiber. D．A woolen creation online. （）5．What does the underlined word “intricate” mean in paragraph 3 A．Confusing. B．Efficient. C．Complicated. D．Effortless.（）6．Who are Li Peng’s primary clientsA．Conservationists of animal rights. B．Individuals fond of furry toys. C．Distributors providing personalized service. D．People suffering from pet loss.（）7．What’s the crucial factor behind Li Peng’s successA．Fair product pricing. B．Human-pet attachment.C．Smart network marketing. D．Hunger for a fine reputation.CThink you have a good grasp of English Good. Read the six sentences below, then.Sentence 1: The old man the boat.Sentence 2: The cotton clothing is made of grows in Mississippi. Sentence 3: Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana.Sentence 4: Fat people eat collects.Sentence 5: The man who hunts ducks out on weekends.Sentence 6: The complex houses married and single soldiers and their families.Linguists （语言学家）call these “garden path sentences”, which take you by the hand and lead you down a winding path to a dead end.Despite this, they’re all grammatically correct. Let’s see why.Sentence 1: The old man the boat.Besides sounding like a rejected Hemingway title, this sentence is indeed grammatically correct thanks to some well-placed homonyms —words that share the same spellings but have different meanings. Homonym 1 here is “old”, used as a noun, meaning “old people”; homonym 2 is “man”, used as a verb, meaning “to serve in/on”. With that in mind, the sentence means “The old people serve on the boat”.Sentence 2: The cotton clothing is made of grows in Mississippi.At first read, you’d think “is made of” is the main verb of this sentence. But it’s not. The simplest form of this sentence is “The cotton grows in Mississippi”; confusingly, “clothing is made of” is used to tell us what cotton we’re talking about. This sentence would make way more sense if written “The cotton that clothing is made of grows in Mississippi”, but English allows us to remove certain conjunctions like “that”, with its meaning maintained.Sentence 3: Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana.The first half of this sentence is easy to catch. So when dealing with the other half, people usually follow the structure of the first half, and it’d be understood as “fruits fly like bananas”. This is obviously unreasonable. Only when people rethink can they recognize the true meaning of the sentence. Therefore, such sentences manage to make people ignore thestructure of the sentence itself, thus departing from its original meaning. Come on! Take a walk down the garden path with the rest of the sentences.（）8．What’s the characteristic of “garden path sentences” according to linguistsA．Misleading but error-free. B．Accurate and plain.C．Improperly-worded and meaningless. D．Ungrammatical but comprehensible.（）9．Which word is an example similar to the homonym of “man” in sentence 1A．“grows” in sentence 2 . B．“eat” in sentence 4.C．“hunts” in sentence 5. D．“houses” in sentence 6.（）10．Which of the following correctly interprets “fruit flies like a ba nana” in sentence 3A．“fruit flies” refers to a sort of insect.B．“flies” serves as the verb of the sentence.C．“flies like” explains what fruit is talked about.D．“like” has the same meaning as the “like” before it.（）11．What can be the troublemaker in sentence 4A．The ill-placed verbs. B．The removal of “that”.C．The grammar mistakes. D．The lack of noun behind “collects”.DSocial media provides materialists with ideal opportunities to compare themselves with others, which makes them subject to passive and addictive user behavior. This stresses them out and, ultimately, leads to low life satisfaction, according to a new study.The researchers headed by Dr. Phillip Ozimek from Germany employed 1,230 people for their online survey. In order to participate, respondents had to visit at least one social media channel at least once a week. On average, the participants stated they spent just over two hours a day on social media.The team used six different questionnaires to determine the extent to which the participants had a materialistic attitude and tended to compare themselves with others, whether they used social media more actively or passively, whether they were addicted to social media, how stressed and how satisfied they were with their lives.“The data sh owed a stronger materialistic approach goes hand in hand with a tendency to compare oneself with others,” points out Ozimek. This comparison is easy to make on social media, primarily through passive use — by looking at the content posted by other users. Materialism and passive use were also linked to addictive use of social media.“Users are constantly thinking about the respective channels and fear they’re missing out on something if they aren’t online,” explains Ozimek.“This in turn leads to poorer ment al health like stress. The final link in the chain is reduced life satisfaction.”“Overall, the study provides further evidence that the use of social media is associated with risks, especially for people with a highly materialistic mindset,” says the psychologist. “This is particularly worrying, because social media can stimulate and increase materialistic values through influence r marketing. Meanwhile, the platforms attract materialists anyway, as they’re a perfect way to satisfy materialistic needs.”“It’s definitely a good idea to be aware of the amount of time you spend on social media and to reduce it,” recommends Ozimek, who advises against giving up social media completely. “If you did, you’re likely to over-correct.”He also suggests recording mater ialism and social media use in patients undergoing treatment for mental health disorders. “While these factors are often irrelevant, they can be a starting point for additional interventions patients can try out at home.”（）12．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text A．The Virtual World, the Real DangerB．Showing Superiority Causes Heavy Media UseC．More Social Media Materialism, Less HappinessD．Materialistic Values: A Stepping Stone to Discontent（）13．To qualify for the survey, a participant must ______.A．be a big spender B．specialize in data analysisC．be a regular social media user D．upload web surfing history（）14．What kind of feeling is expressed by Ozimek in paragraph 6 A．Pessimism. B．Sympathy. C．Shock. D．Concern.（）15．What does Ozimek propose concerning using social media A．Restricting the duration. B．Logging onto well-rated websites. C．Abandoning it for good. D．Prohibiting patients from using it.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
2023届四川省广安市高三上学期第一次诊断性考试英语试题(含答案解析)
2023届四川省广安市高三上学期第一次诊断性考试英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解With globally famous literary festivals,specialty bookshops and a rich cultural well to draw from,Toronto is a literature lover’s dream.Here are two festivals.When Word on the Street was first held in Toronto in1990,it was designed to celebrate Canada’s rich literary culture.Now it’s become the largest festival in the country devoted to books and magazines.It’s free for attendees.Of course,you have to pay if you buy books here.Then,the contemporary-literature-focused Toronto International Festival of Authors(TIFA)will come next month-each October.TIFA Kids takes place at the same time,making for a literary escape for the whole family.How about specialty bookshops?Flying Books is a bookstore,book publisher and writing school founded by book editor Martha Sharpe.You can find Sharpe’s selection of titles at The Good Neighbor Espresso Bar and the Gladstone House.Extend your literature experience from home with its virtual classes on criticism,journalism,memoir and more,taught by experienced Canadian authors.Ben McNally Books(possibly the city’s most beautiful bookstore)is in the east of the Financial District,whose owner is regularly on-site to assist you with recommendations.Type Books across from green Trinity Bellwoods Park which is the perfect spot to read under the trees is co-owned by a former literature professor and best for general interest.West end’s Monkey’s Paw,where you can find rare books,and unique finds,specializes in secondhand and ancient books.Queen Books in Leslieville has an excellent kids’section where you can buy the latest children’s books.1．What do we know about Word on the Street?A．It has grown gradually.B．It is held each October.C．It charges participants.D．It is of TIFA origin.2．What can Flying Books help you do?A．Become a book editor faster.B．Build up a personal library.C．Get the free books from authors.D．Improve your literary skills online. 3．Which bookstore will you go to find a good place to read after buying books?A．Queen Books.B．Ben McNally Books.C．Type Books.D．Monkey’s Paw.Ouarzazate is a desert town at the foot of the Atlas Mountains in Morocco,Africa,which attracts Hollywood and European film makers for its varied scenery and picture-perfect locations.Its Kasbah,with its red and brown mud houses and narrow streets,is one of these locations.It’s been chosen by many US and British movie makers as a location for big-budget films such as Gladiators and Kingdom of Heaven.The cinema has brought a lot to Ouarzazate,whose people may work as technicians, sound engineers or decorators,but they are mainly given unimportant roles as extras.Mbarka, her husband,and their five children have all appeared in Western films as extras.Mbarka has been in so many Hollywood films over the past20years that she cannot remember most of them.She doesn’t even know the name of the last one she appeared in.“I was in the film for15days.My son,Azzedine,knows its name,”said Mbarka.It’s unnecessary to remember that.After all,it’s not that she likes the industry,but that she makes a living from it.Kingdom of Heaven,a$180million US production,provided eight months of work for 2800Ouarzazate people.“When the cinema comes here,people are happy,”said Azzedine who has appeared in movies since he was seven.When there’s no movie in town,his mother sells sandwiches in the local market,but he doesn’t seek any other job or go to school to improve his skills,not wanting to miss a film opportunity though he’s not well paid.In fact, inexperienced Moroccan extras get as little as$15per day.Still,the money isn’t bad considering the average salary in Ouarzazate is about$6a day.Those with experience earn more;they get about$24per day or as much as$60.Inexperienced European extras,on the other hand,get about$40per day.This has led to complaints of discrimination by some Ouarzazate people.4．What can be learnt about Mbarka?A．She is a senior extra.B．She loves making films. C．She’s left show business.D．She has been forgetful.5．What does Azzedine do when there’s no movie work?A．He learns hard to be a real actor.B．He always goes out to work.C．He deliberately remains jobless.D．He helps his mother in a market.6．What’s Ouarzazate people’s attitude to the arrival of the foreign film industry? A．Tolerant.B．Favorable.C．Unwilling.D．Carefree. 7．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A．To promote two big-budget films.B．To introduce the extras’situations. C．To recommend an African Hollywood.D．To call for an end to pay discrimination.Bus stops across the United Kingdom(UK)and Europe are getting living roofs.They are called bee bus stops.Bees and other pollinators(传粉者)like butterflies help grow plants,such as flowers, trees,and crops.When these insects visit flowers,they collect pollen—a yellow powder in the center of most flowers.Without bees or other insects bringing pollen from one flower to another,many plants couldn’t produce seeds or grow fruits or vegetables.But as humans have taken over more and more land for cities,roads,and farms,more natural areas have disappeared.The Wildlife Trusts,a group which works to protect wildlife in the UK,says that insect numbers there have dropped by50%since1970.Then bee bus stops are born.The advertising company Clear Channel is working with the Wildlife Trusts and city governments to set up bee bus stops in cities across the UK.They are like ordinary bus shelters,but small gardens have been added to the roofs.The gardens are filled with flowers and plants chosen to attract bees and butterflies.Even though the gardens are small,together they add up to a much1larger area.Because the soil for the rooftop garden is heavy,especially when it rains,the bus shelters need to be sturdy.The rooftop gardens need to be cleaned about twice a year.But other than that,not much is needed to keep the gardens going.This summer was a little different, because of the extreme heat.Clear Channel that already has similar bee bus stop programs in several countries in Europe is working with local governments to build at least1,000bee bus stops in the UK. Research shows that these bus stops,along with many other steps taken to support pollinators, are helping.After decades of dropping numbers,bee populations in Europe have become more stable over the last few years.8．What is paragraph2mainly about concerning pollinators?A．Their ways of life.B．Their importance.C．Their daily behavior.D．Their living environment.9．What are bee bus stops intended for?A．Beautifying the crowded cities.B．Offering insects islands of nature.C．Introducing eco-friendly products.D．Drawing attention to climate change.10．What does the underlined word“sturdy”in paragraph4mean?A．Strong.B．Large.C．Clean.D．Attractive.11．Which of the following best describes the bee bus stop program?A．Costly.B．Controversial.C．Demanding.D．Successful.For years,doctors have given blood to patients who need it to survive.These transfusions usually include giving red blood cells to patients.Blood transfusions aren’t as simple as taking blood from one person and giving it to someone else.There’re several different blood types that don’t all mix well.If someone gets a transfusion of the wrong kind of blood,their body will reject the blood cells,causing problems.For the first time ever,scientists from the University of Bristol,Britain,are carrying out a new trail:testing red blood cells grown in a laboratory on human volunteers. The scientists have used stem cells(干细胞)from a blood sample to grow billions of brand new red blood cells.This could be even better than a regular blood transfusion.For one thing,they can be adjusted for people with different blood types.That’ll be extremely helpful for people with rare blood types.Also,a normal transfusion has red blood cells of all different ages,which means only a small part of them are brand new.The red blood cells grown in the lab are brand new,and this means they last longer and that patients will need fewer transfusions.To test its safety,researchers have given a couple of teaspoons of the blood to two healthy people,both of whom seem to be doing just fine after the transfusions.In all,they’ll be tested on10people,and compared to normal transfusions.The new process doesn’t indicate that normal blood transfusions will disappear.Meanwhile,growing red blood cells in a lab is extremely expensive.And a lot of work and testing still need to be done.But if it’s successful,the process could make life much easier for patients who often need transfusions-even those with rare blood types.12．What is special about the red blood cells in1the experiment?A．They’re given by those with rare blood types.B．They’re collected from seriously ill patients.C．They’re specifically for a single blood type.D．They’ve never existed in any human bodies.13．What is the disadvantage of normal blood transfusion?A．Blood reserves are often inadequate.B．It often takes the patient a lot of time.C．Most normal blood cells don’t live long.D．It’s unfit for those with rare blood types.14．What can be inferred about the new process of red blood cells?A．It will have a long way to go.B．It’ll replace normal transfusions.C．It will separate rare blood types.D．It’ll reduce blood research costs.15．Which can be a suitable title for the text?A．Blood Transfusions Get EasierB．Rare Blood Types Are Not RareC．Rare Blood Cells Need DonatingD．Scientists Test Lab-created Blood二、七选五A microscope is a scientific instrument that reveals objects which are normally too small for the human eyes to see.Microscopes use several lenses(镜片)to provide a large image of atiny object and they have been important in the study of biology.__16__.People noticed that single lenses could make objects larger and also that they could focus the sun’s rays to start a fire.These early lenses were called burning glasses.This led to the development of eye-glasses or spectacles in the early1300s.In the late1500s,two Dutch spectacle makers,Hans and Zaccharias Janssen,invented the first true microscope.__17__,and they were surprised to discover that they could make objects look many times bigger.Galileo,an Italian scientist,improved the quality of the lenses to produce better quality microscopes and telescopes.Anthony Leeuwenhoek(1632-1723)and Robert Hooke(1635-1703)were two early users of the microscope.__18__.Leeuwenhoek discovered bacteria and showed how a drop of water is full of living creatures.Robert Hooke wrote a book Micrographia which described this new world of micro-organisms with drawings that amazed the world.For two hundred years,there was little development of the microscope until new industrial techniques produced accurate and powerful lenses.__19__,so they were often inaccurate.In the early twentieth century,the USA and Germany produced powerful microscopes in large numbers for export around the world.Nowadays,scientists still use microscopes that use light to see small objects such as cells and micro-organisms.__20__.These electron microscopes have a magnification(放大) of a million times and now we can see molecules(分子)and atoms.A．They used several lenses together in a tubeB．Microscopes were expensive in their early daysC．Before this time,people made the lenses by handD．They made many important discoveries for mankind by using itE．The word microscope comes from the New Latin word microscopiumF．But they also have so powerful microscopes that use a different technologyG．The discovery of glass over2000years ago led to early experiments with lenses三、完形填空Fritz Sam was driving his Uber car when he picked up Jemimah Wei,who was on her way to LaGuardia Airport.__21__Brooklyn’s Bed-Stuy neighborhood,Fritz saw a building on fire.He asked Jemimah if she’d mind him pulling over to check it out.With Jemimah’s__22__,he went out to help.Outside of the building a crowd had__23__,and Fritz joined them in calling for the people inside to come out.And when someone said two people were__24__inside,he was faced with the__25__of staying safe out on the sidewalk or running into the__26__ building to help those that remained.Fritz chose the latter.He__27__entered the smoke-filled building and went up the stairs.

2024届四川省绵阳市高三上学期第一次诊断性考试英语试题
2024届四川省绵阳市高三上学期第一次诊断性考试英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解The upcoming China-Central Asia Summit is to be held in Xi’an, which has a history of over 3,000 years and enjoys a reputation as a “Living History Museum”. If you are among the participants, just enjoy the following.The Terracotta ArmyIt is one of the greatest discoveries of the 20th century. Discovered in 1974, the army of Terracotta Warriors was constructed by China’s First Emperor Qinshihuang of the Qin Dynasty (221 BC-207 BC) with a collection of thousands of life-size terracotta soldiers and horses differing in facial features and expressions, clothing, hairstyle and also body position.Ancient City WallIt was built in the 14th century by Zhu Yuanzhang, the first Emperor of the Ming dynasty (1368–1644). Now it is one of the oldest and best-preserved Chinese city walls. The wall is now a landmark, where you can enjoy a good view of the city.Giant Wild Goose PagodaOne of China’s most famous Buddhist pagodas, the Giant Wild Goose Pagoda, was built in the Tang Dynasty (618-907) for the study of Buddhist scriptures (经典). One of its main functions was to store scriptures brought to China from India by the famous monk and traveler Xuan Zang.Shaanxi History MuseumIt is home to over 370,000 precious treasures unearthed in Shaanxi. Its collections range from bronze wares to pottery (陶) figures, gold and paintings from the Tang Dynasty tombs. Among its precious collections, some pieces have been listed as national treasures. 1．Where can you go if you’re into ancient China’s troops?A．The Terracotta Army.B．Ancient City Wall.C．Giant Wild Goose Pagoda.D．Shaanxi History Museum.2．What do the four attractions have in common?A．They date back to 1, 000 years ago.B．They have wonderful tall buildings.C．They show the great historical charm of Xi’an.D．They have a wide range of precious collections.3．Who is the passage mainly intended for?A．The travelers to Xi’an.B．The history-lovers to Xi’an.C．The participants to a summit in Xi’an.D．The visitors to a famous museum in Xi’an.My wife, Hannah, and I didn’t usually keep houseplants. Anything in pots got either over-watered or under-watered and was finally thrown away. But after my diagnosis (诊断) with glioblastoma, a terminal brain cancer, I loved the idea of having something new and green around.My friend Mitch gave me a lucky bamboo plant in a deep-green pottery bowl. We placed the plant beside the living room window.I told Hannah I wanted to care for the plant myself. When it didn’t turn yellow or brown or lose all its leaves a fortnight later, I was kind of pleased. Tending to the plant gave me a sense of accomplishment.Glioblastoma limited my ability to walk, making it hard for me to accomplish everyday tasks. As a family physician, I was used to being the one who provided care instead of the one who received it. My diagnosis made me rely on help from other people. The great change left me unsettled. Watering the plant, small act though it was, taught me I could still be a caregiver.Later, after I recovered from surgery and completed chemotherapy (化疗), I continued to care for the plant. Soon, it even doubled in height and its leaves were shiny. Both the tree and I were thriving (生机勃勃).Whenever I look at the bamboo, I make a point to think of those who have cared for and supported me. Even if my cancer returns and the plant outlives me, I hope it will comfort Hannah and remind her that our large community will continue to care for her after I am gone.4．What usually happened to the couple’s houseplants?A．They were given away.B．They hardly survived.C．They grew quite well.D．They were properly cared for.5．How did the author react when the plant remained healthy after two weeks?A．He had a sense of achievement.B．He suffered a sense of loss.C．He felt completely useless.D．He got encouraged.6．Why did the author want to care for the bamboo himself?A．His wife was too busy.B．He had much time to kill.C．He hated to lose his old identity.D．He had gained better gardening skills. 7．What message does the author seem to convey in the last paragraph?A．Pride comes before a fall.B．It’s family that matters most.C．Kindness is the key to a happy life.D．The world never lacks care and support.The fireworks that you see are most likely made in China. The country that makes90% of the world’s fireworks is also where they were invented. Most historians believe that the Chinese used firecrackers as early as the second century B．C．Many countries hold grand fireworks show at their important celebrations. Canadians, for example, put on fireworks show every July 1 to celebrate their own national birthday, as the French do on July 14 to mark the anniversary of their revolution. But the United States of America imports most of the world’s fireworks, spending more than $650 million on them per year. The Walt Disney Co. alone buys about $50 million worth.A mixture of gunpowder and other flammable compounds(混合物) causes fireworks to explode across the sky in all those pretty colors and fun shapes. Copper, for instance, burns bright blue while strontium(锶) creates deep red. Together, they produce purple. But the outlines fireworks form depend on the placement of these compounds inside their casing (known as the shell), as well as the shape of the shell itself.For centuries the only way to set off fireworks was by hand, but computer controlled equipment came out in the 1980s. Automation means more precisely timed explosions, making the displays more satisfying, not to mention safer.As you might imagine, setting off fireworks can release harmful substances into the air. For example, a chemical that has been linked to thyroid(甲状腺) problems. “Environmentally friendly”fireworks were developed at the request of the Walt Disney Co. after it received smoke complaints from neighbors of Disneyland. Nowadays, an even more eco-friendly alternative to traditional fireworks is being increasingly adopted: using small aircrafts withoutpilots to trace flashy patterns in the sky. With them, there’s also a much smaller risk of causing wildfires. The eco-friendly fireworks industry is expected to grow almost 20% between now and 2027.8．Which country has the greatest demand for fireworks every year?A．Canada.B．China.C．France.D．The USA．9．What does the color of fireworks mainly depend on?A．The shape of the shell.B．The amount of gunpowder.C．The type of added metals.D．The placement of compounds. 10．What can be inferred about fireworks industry from the text?A．It’s disappearing gradually.B．It’s trying to keep up with times.C．It’s becoming a major pollution source.D．It’s losing popularity among the young.11．Where can the text be found?A．A science fiction.B．A popular magazine.C．An academic paper.D．An official document.More than half of the world’s largest lakes have lost significant amounts of water over the last three decades, and roughly one-quarter of the world’s population lives in the basin of a drying lake, according to a new study by a team of international scientists, which pins the blame largely on climate change and excessive(过度的)water use.While lakes cover only around 3% of the planet, they hold nearly 90% of its liquid surface freshwater and are primary sources of drinking water, irrigation and power, and they provide vital habitats(栖息地) for animals and plants.Across the world, the most significant lakes are seeing sharp declines. The Colorado River’s Lake Mead in Southwest US has shrunk dramatically due to a megadrought(大干旱) and decades of overuse. The Caspian Sea, between Asia and Europe the world’s largest inland body of water has long been declining.The shrinking of many lakes has been well documented by environmental groups, but the reasons behind it have been hardly examined, said Fangfang Yao, the study’s lead author and a visiting scholar at the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences at the University of Colorado Boulder.The researchers used satellite measurements of nearly 2,000 of the world’s largest lakes, which together represent 95% of Earth’s total lake water storage. Examining more than 250,000 satellite images spanning from 1992 to 2020, along with climate models, they were able to reconstruct the history of the lakes going back decades.“The results were staggering,” Yao said. “It’s a little scary to see how many freshwater systems are unable to store as much water as they used to.”“As many parts of the world become hotter and drier, lakes must be managed properly. Otherwise climate change and human activities can lead to drying sooner than we think,” Yao added.12．What might be the author’s purpose in writing the second paragraph?A．To broaden readers’ horizons.B．To encourage readers to protect wildlife.C．To lighten readers’ worries over water shortage.D．To show shrinkage of lakes should be taken seriously.13．What has environmental groups ignored?A．The recording of shrinking lakes.B．The influence of water shortage.C．Causes of the shrinkage of many lakes.D．Measures to stop the shrinkage of lakes.14．What can we learn about the new study from Paragraph 5?A．It’s scientifically-grounded.B．It’s much-debated.C．It’s commercially-successful.D．It’s partially-acceptable.15．Which does the underlined word “staggering”probably mean in Paragraph 6?A．Puzzling.B．Shocking.C．Inspiring.D．Amazing.二、七选五The Eyes Are the PrizeWe watch our salt and fat intake to protect our hearts. We exercise and take calcium to protect our bones. 16 . But what can we do to protect our eyes? We asked experts what lifestyle steps people should be taking to protect their vision and eye health.●Spring for some quality shades“It is very important to protect the eyes from UV(紫外线的) light, which has been shown to have a harmful effect on the eyes. ”says Esen Akpek, an ophthalmology(眼科)professor at Johns Hopkins University.“ 17 . In fact, if the glasses are simply dark but not UV-protected, that’s worse for your eyes. Do buy sunglasses that can block out 99% to 100% UV light.”●Take a break from screensWhile there’s no scientific evidence that the light from electronic screens damages eyes, staring at a screen can leave eyes extremely tired. One of the reasons is that people tend to blink(眨眼) less during screen use. 18 . The National Institutes of Health recommends taking a break every 20 minutes to look at something about 20 feet away for 20 seconds.● 19First, smoking is terrible. It isn’t just bad for your lungs; it can harm eyes too. “Smoking causes dry eyes, harms optic(视觉) nerve and makes eye disease worse,” says Dr. Akpek.20 .“The more you rub, the more uncomfortable your eyes will get. It can lead to infections. Instead, take medication or use drops for allergies or dry eyes.”A．Stop smokingB．This leads to eye drynessC．Get rid of those bad habitsD．Also, try not to rub your eyesE．We apply sun-screen to protect our skinF．Our eyes are far more important than themG．Dark glasses aren’t necessarily the most protective三、完形填空One summer evening, after a shopping trip back home with my six kids, I suddenlyagain and again.

2023届四川省成都市高三上学期第一次诊断性考试英语试题(含答案解析)
2023届四川省成都市高三上学期第一次诊断性考试英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Here are some places you won’t miss when you travel to West Ireland.The Cliffs of MoherIn Ireland,the Cliffs of Moher are certainly one of those places.Original andheart-stoppingly sheer(陡峭的)-a walk along these natural wonders can only leave you in amazement.Extensive paths along the edge offer endless photo opportunities as well as a wonderful way to walk off your beer and Irish dishes.Spend the day walking along the sheer cliffs and taking in the beauty as you enjoy a picnic lunch in the green grass.GalwayGalway is one of the towns that you’ll still hear Gaelic spoken in the pubs and shops. The busy center of town,Eyre Square is the perfect place to spend a sunny afternoon and enjoy sports and picnics in the grassy area.With colorful signature pubs,narrow cobblestone(鹅卵石)streets and live music from street performers as well as in nearly every restaurant and pub,this small city really has the power to interest people.Keem BayOne of Ireland’s best kept secret beaches,found on the western shores of Achill Island in County Mayo.Framed by such delightful scenery,many visitors will find the journey here just as rewarding as the day out itself.A truly impressive location.Downpatrick HeadLocated just north of the village of Ballycastle in County Mayo,Downpatrick Head is a historical site that gives visitors a unique view of the Atlantic Ocean.Also found on Downpatrick Head are the ruins of a church founded by Ireland’s saint Patrick,a holy well,a stone circle and nesting sea birds.Let us help make your plans of traveling to West Ireland as memorable as ours!Email us to set up an appointment to experience the best of it!1．Where should visitors go if they are interested in photography?A．Galway.B．Keem Bay.C．The Cliffs of Moher.D．Downpatrick Head.2．What do Keem Bay and Downpatrick Head have in common?A．Live music.B．Beautiful scenery.C．Remote islands.D．Historical remains.3．Where can the text be found?A．In a travel brochure.B．In an adventure novel.C．In a geography textbook.D．In an academic magazine.Steph Clemence always intended to go to college.But life tends to throw barriers in the way.Her mother remarried several times.By the time she was a senior in high school,Steph had lived in25places.Her stepfather died in a car accident,leaving her mother to support three daughters on a modest income.Paying for college became out of the question.One afternoon,Dorothy Clarks,her English teacher,walked into the classroom,handing out a paper sheet titled“Mrs.Clark’s Book List”,and said,“Some of you might not go on to higher education,but you can continue to learn.”She created a list of153fiction and nonfiction books,covering science,history,economics,politics,and literature.It would,she believed,form the equivalent(等同)of two years at a liberal arts college.So she began in1970.Starting at the top,Steph would read every book in the order they appeared.Each of those books fueled her passion to learn more about the person,subject matter,or time in history.Unlike many people who open a book in bed before it’s time to sleep,Steph prefers to read while sitting in a chair with a cup of coffee by her side.She doesn’t race through a book,as she wants to savor the experience.Now Steph is70and she never did get to college.But she has only four books left to read from the list.She expects to complete them sometime in2023.In Madame Curie,the author,Eve Curie,writes,“Each of us must work for his own improvement,and at the same time share a general responsibility for all humanity,our particular duty being to aid those to whom we think we can be most useful.”The way Steph sees it,Mrs.Clark felt it was her particular duty to help young students.She wishes she couldthank Mrs.Clarks and share with her how reading the works on her list has changed her life.“It was never just a list I got from some teacher in school.It’s always been Mrs.Clark’s Book List,”says Steph.4．What made a barrier to Steph going to college?A．Her family’s frequent move.B．Her stepfather’s death.C．Her family’s financial conditions.D．Her mother’s remarriage.5．What does the underlined word“savor”in Paragraph3probably mean?A．Learn from.B．Slow down.C．Keep in mind.D．Take pleasure in.6．What can we know about the book list given by Mrs.Clarks?A．It is about humanity.B．It was praised by Eve Curie.C．It reflects her sense of social responsibility.D．It benefits Steph’s academic performances.7．Which of the following best describes Steph?A．Modest.B．Self-motivated.C．Intelligent.D．Easy-going.Is it amazing to generate electricity by getting moisture(水汽)from the air surrounding you?Such devices,called MEG,have already been created with some regular items such as a piece of fabric.However,the researchers found it quite challenging with balancing and maintaining moisture content between where it shouldn’t be and where it is required to be.To fix this problem,the team led by Tan Swee Ching from National University of Singapore created a new MEG.One part of the fabric in their device is coated with a special gel(凝胶).This is what they called the wet region.The special water-absorbing gel is able to take in more than six times its original weight.This is the very thing used to harvest moisture coming from the air around. The other end of this device is the dry region,which doesn’t have the gel.They specificallydesigned the fabric this way to make sure that the area stays dry and that the water is trapped only in the wet region.The wet-dry regions ensure water is maintained just in the wet area,even if this device is left in an open damp environment fora month.This demonstrates how effective the device is when it comes to maintaining its stable electrical output.The MEG device also has immediate potential applications,one of which is to make a portable power source.“With this unique structure,the electric performance of our MEG device is significantly improved in comparison with the previous ones,thus making it possible to power many common electronic devices,such as health monitors and wearable electronics,”Tan said.“The invention can be massively produced because it’s easy for factories to get their hands on commercially available raw materials.When it is perfected,many people can finally get their hands on this small,yet powerful tool that they can easily and readily apply in the devices used for their daily use,”Tan added.8．What is the main idea of Paragraph3?A．The structure of the device.B．The functions of the device.C．The operation of the device.D．The advantages of the device.9．What plays the major role in solving the problem of the previous MEG?A．The water-absorbing gel.B．The stable electrical output.C．The wet-dry region design.D．The specially-designed fabric.10．Which statement will Tan probably agree with about the device?A．It has been widely applied.B．It has a promising future.C．It is a pioneering invention.D．It will succeed immediately.11．Why did the author write this passage?A．To present a recent study on saving energy.B．To compare the new MEG with previous ones.C．To advocate a new way of generating electricity.D．To introduce a better device of producing power.Can you imagine someone hunting you down with a gun?Most of us would be terrified. So,it’s no surprise that that’s how animals respond,too.Orcas,a species that have been systematically hunted-even with machineguns-dramatically decreased in number in the twentieth century.These so-called“killer whales”hunted the same fish that fishermen prized and were therefore seen as competition. Consequently,killer whales began avoiding certain locations and routes.But while North America largely banned their killing in the1970s,they continue to be hunted in Greenland to this day.Elephants also have to deal with human hunters.Ivory poachers(象牙偷猎者)have greatly reduced the African elephant population,which used to cover the entire continent.The ivory trade was banned in1990,but animal habitats and food supplies have still declined.In Kenya,the human population has increased four times over the last40years while the elephant population declined by four-fifths.This has caused the elephants to adopt unique responses to people.For instance, elephants are terrified of the spear-waving Maasai,an ethnic group of Kenya and Tanzania who have often hurt elephants when trying to protect their own cattle.So once in an experiment by a group of zoologists,when elephants living close to the Maasai were presented with three different T-shirts,one belonging to a Maasai,another to a different local and one to a researcher,they only reacted with fear to the Maasai shirt,literally smelling the danger.However,neither elephants nor killer whales commonly show anger and hate for people. In fact,elephants are generally friendly to humans.And the only instances of killer whales harming a person occurred when the whales were kept in a water cage.Orcas have even been reported to aid humans in need,protecting them from other animals.12．Why are killer whales often hunted?A．They are hugely profitable.B．They harm people’s interests.C．They threaten fishermen’s safety.D．They compete with other wildlife for food.13．What does the underlined word“This”in Paragraph4refer to?A．Less illegal ivory trade.B．The decline of food supplies.C．Elephants’traveling to other continents.D．The population change of humans and elephants.14．Why is the experiment mentioned?A．To prove humans’influence on animals.B．To show the defensive nature of the Maasai.C．To illustrate the cleverness of the wild animals.D．To highlight the urgency of animal conservation.15．What’s the best title of this text?A．Fierce Animals Can Feel Frightened TooB．Animal Kingdoms Are Sounding an AlarmC．Animals Are Trying to Fit in Human WorldD．Human Actions Have Shaped Animal Consciousness二、七选五The job searching process can be exciting and challenging.____16____This includes increasing your understanding of how to do well in the application process,including during interviews.Here are some tips for you.Customize your application materials.You are likely to stand out if you tailor each resume to the job you apply for.You can have a basic resume and adjust it to fit the job description by using any obvious keywords from the job listing.____17____ Research potential employers.Research companies in the industry you want to work in and know what they offer agrees with what you want.____18____Therefore,you can limit it based on location or other factors.Then you can use that list to look into individual employers to see what job openings they might have,what past and current employees think about working there and what the corporate culture is like.____19____This is often a big help to job seekers and is a skill many people need for their careers.Whether you’re looking for a new opportunity in your current field or you’re hoping to start a career in a new field,you will probably find value in meeting otherprofessionals in that industry.You can do this at industry-specific events,conferences,online platforms or through other people you know.Send a thank-you note.After an interview,you are recommended to send a thank-you note to the person who interviewed you.____20____For instance,if your networking helped you get an interview,show appreciation to those who helped you,or if you received help from an assistant or another professional,you could also thank them for their help as well.

四川省绵阳市2024届高三上学期第一次诊断性模拟测试英语试卷(含答案)
四川省绵阳市2024届高三上学期第一次诊断性模拟测试英语试卷学校：___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Women are equally responsible for the growth of a free, modern society. Here’s a look at some outstanding women who made great contributions to world history.Maria Sibylla MerianToday, children can explain how a caterpillar (毛毛虫) turns into a butterfly (蝴蝶). But there was a time when no one knew this --not even scientists. Thanks to Maria Sibylla Merian, we know the truth about these beautiful winged insects. Merian was fascinated by insects, and she began collecting, studying, and drawing them when she was as young as 13. It was through her study of caterpillars that she discovered the truth about their life cycles.Beryl MarkhamBeryl Markham was quite incredible in not just aviation (航空) but several other industries, including horse racing. In 1936, at age 33, Markham became the first woman to fly across the Atlantic alone from the east to the west, nonstop. The pilot played a role in the classic best-selling novel and film, Out of Africa, and had many biographies penned about her talents and life.Madam C. J. WalkerMadam C J. Walker developed a condition that caused her to lose her hair, and with it, an interest in hair care. She began working for black hair care entrepreneur ( 企业家) Annie Turnbo Malone. Eventually, Walker began making and marketing her own hair care products designed for African-American women. Her company developed into the successful Madam C. J. Walker Manufacturing Company. She is widely recognized as America’s first black female self-made millionaire.Hedy LamarrYou might know Hedy Lamarr from the silver screen; she starred in many films. But her film career is far from her only achievement; she was also a brilliant inventor. In 1942, she received a patent for an invention that could change radio signal frequencies. It paved the way for much of the wireless technology we use today.1、Who had a lot of enthusiasm for the study of insects?A. Hedy LamarrB. Beryl MarkhamC. Madam C. J. WalkerD. Maria Sibylla Merian2、What made Madam C. J. Walker begin to focus on the hair care?A. Her losing her hair.B. A type of hair care product.C. Annie Turnbo Malone’s success.D. Her wish to help African Americans.3、What is special about Hedy Lamar?A. She was the first woman to fly across the Atlantic alone.B. She was both a film star and an inventor.C. She was a successful businesswoman.D. She was a best-selling writer.When Virginia Norwood was in high school in the 1940s, her guidance teacher advised her to become a librarian instead of a physicist. Luckily, she ignored him. “I was always enthusiastic about mathematical problems and physics,” said Norwood. Also, her father, an electrical engineer, was very important to her. By 1972, Norwood, a Massachusetts Institute of Technology graduate and engineer at Hughes Aircraft Company, had designed a vital component of Landsat 1, the first satellite launched into space to monitor Earth’s surface. Satellites in the Landsat series still provide valuable data to scientists worldwide and Landsat 9 was successfully launched on 27 September, 2021, almost 50 years after the first one.Norwood’s contribution was the multispectral scanner (多光谱扫描仪) 一a sensor thatenergy reflected from Earth and could transmit (传输) data digitally to researchers on the ground. The scanner enabled scientists to track forest loss, crop productivity, and the spread of deserts, and to map inaccessible features of Earth’s physical structures such as glaciers and ice sheets. “She cleared the way for an entire generation of... Earth observation instruments,”says NASA’s Jeffrey Masek, a Landsat proje ct scientist.Norwood’s device was included in the first several satellites launched through the Landsat program, a joint effort by NASA and the US Geological Survey. Other satellites have since surpassed the Landsat series in resolution and scanning abilities, but the continuity of the Landsat database over the decades makes it a gold standard in Earth imaging.4、What inspired Norwood to pursue physics?A. Her interest in the subject.B. Her father’s job as a physicist.C. Her guidance teacher’s advice.D. Her enthusiasm about the Landsat program.5、What does the underlined word “calibrated” in paragraph 2 mean?A. Detected.B. Described.C. Adjusted.D. Reflected.6、What is the author’s attitude towards the Landsat series?A. Appreciative.B. Contradictory.C. Doubtful.D. Unclear.7、Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. A Joint Effort to Monitor Earth’s SurfaceB. Meet the Landsat Pioneer-Virginia NorwoodC. A Great Contribution-the Multispectral ScannerD. Satellites Launched Through the Landsat ProgramLondon Mayor Sadiq Khan’s announcement that all primary school pupils in the city will receive free school meals from September is a welcome move amid rising food and energy prices. The £130 million plan rejects means-testing (经济状况调查) in favor of a universal scheme, which many see as a smart political move and a good policy. Universal public services such as this create shared understanding and gain political legitimacy, as they enable individuals to live at a reasonable standard.The current tax and benefit system in the UK leaves millions of children in poverty and hunger, and means-testing is neither fair nor efficient. Parents claiming universal credit in England must have a household income of less than £7,400 to qualify for free school meals. An estimated 800,000 children living in poverty do not get free school meals due to the eligibility criteria being so restrictive. Another 200,000 are eligible but have not accessed them because enrolment is not automatic.The initiative has been welcomed by many for its potential to reduce child obesity rates and improve pupil attainment. The Impact on Urban Health thinktank estimates that making free school meals universal will generate £1.71 in economic and social benefits for every £1 invested.Unfortunately, the government seems more interested in rationing access to welfare than helping people get the support they need. Means-testing is often justified on the grounds that it diverts resources to the most needy, but this argument falls apart when thousands of children are going hungry and struggling to learn at school.The move towards universal free school meals in London is a step in the right direction and shows an appetite for experimentation necessary to flesh out the future of the post-Covid welfare state. While some parents on higher salaries may benefit, focusing on this would be missing the point: universal services pay for themselves. By investing in our children’swellbeing and education, we create a healthier, more prosperous soc iety for everyone. It’s time to reject the divisive politics of means-testing and embrace universal public services that benefit us all.8、What is the aim of London Mayor Sadiq Khan’s plan?A. To reduce child obesity rates.B. To improve pupils’ achievement in primary schools.C. To help pupils from poor families handle hunger.D. To ensure means-testing an access to free school meals.9、Why do many people view the universal scheme as a good policy?A. It creates more jobs.B. It benefits individuals.C. It is a divisive politics of means-testing.D. It generates economic and social benefits.10、Why is means-testing an inefficient means to address children’s hunger?A. It runs without political legitimacy.B. The qualification criteria are too restrictive.C. The argument about means-testing falls apart.D. It doesn’t include the current tax and benefit system.11、Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. Obstacles to Universal Free School Meals in LondonB. The Pros and Cons of Means-Testing for Free School MealsC. A Plan to Provide Free School Meals to Pupils in LondonD. The Impact of Universal Public Services on Poverty and HungerAncient Fish Returns to Illinois WatersThe Illinois Department of Natural Resources is returning a fish called the alligator gar to the state’s rivers. Some people call the fish a “living fossil.” Experts believe the fish first appeared during the Early Cretaceous period more than 100 million years ago.Randy Sauer is an Illinois state fisheries biologist. He says the fish disappeared from the state’s rivers in the 1990s, although they have continued to do well in southern states. Sauer says biologists want to bring the fish back to northern rivers “because it is important to have top predators to balance the species below them,” he said.Sport fishermen like to try to catch the alligator gar. Alligator gar are the second-largest freshwater fish in North America. They can grow as large as 2.7 meters and weigh more than136 kilograms. Sauer says their large size is one reason they disappeared in the 1990s. Experts say alligator gars are “opportunistic feeders.” This means they will eat almost anything --including small turtles or ducks. They also eat invasive species such as Asian and silver carp.Sauer hopes the re-introduction of the alligator gar will help the state’s efforts to control the carp. Because gar can live up to 60 years, the program will continue to increase for many years.Sauer notes that female alligator gars do “not sexually matu re until 11 years, and the male not till 6 or 7 years.” That means the biologists will try to raise and release a lot of fish early in the program to re-introduce them.Small devices have been placed in 7,000 of the fish so they can be observed after they are released into the waterways of Illinois. As it rains and floods, biologists expect some of the fish will follow the rivers into the states of Louisiana and Texas.12、Why people call the alligator gar “living fossil”?A. They can grow up to 2.7 meters.B. They can grow up to 136 kilograms.C. Their fossil can be found on earth.D. They have existed for over 100 million years.13、Biologists will bring the alligator gar back to northern rivers in order to _______.A. keep the species balance.B. help people make more money.C. help to protect the environment.D. increase the number of the alligar gar.14、According to Randy Sauer, alligar gar died out in northern rivers probably because _______.A. they ate almost anything.B. they were caught by sport fishermen.C. they were very huge in size.D. the rivers were polluted then.15、What can we learn from the underlined statement?A. It will be decades before these fish produce young.B. There is a long way to go before the fish find each other.C. 10 or 20 years will be needed to find these fish.D. These fish can find each other themselves along the waterways.二、七选五16、EmpathyLast year, researchers from the University of Michigan reported that empathy, the ability to understand other people, among college students had dropped sharply over the past 10 years. ①______ Today, people spend more time alone and are less likely to join groups and clubs.Jennifer Freed, a co-director of a teen program, has another explanation. Turn on the TV, and you’re showered with news and reality shows full of people fighting, competing, and generally treating one another with no respect. ②______There are good reasons not to follow those bad examples. Humans are socially related by nature. ③______ Researchers have also found that empathetic teenagers are more likely to have high self-respect. Besides, empathy can be a cure for loneliness, sadness, anxiety, and fear.Empathy is also an indication of a good leader. In fact, Freed says, many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things they look for in new managers. ④______ “Academics are important. But if you don’t have emotional intelligence, you won’t be as successful in work or in your love life,” she says.What’s the best way to up your EQ? For starters, let down your guard and really listen to others. ⑤______ To really develop empathy, you’d better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital, join a club or a team that has a diverse membership, have a “sharing circle” with your family, or spend time caring for pets at an animal shelter.A. Everyone is different, and levels of empathy differ from person to person.B. That could be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time, the researchers said.C. “One doesn’t develop empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of talking,”Freed says.D. Humans learn by example—and most of the examples on it are anything but empathetic.E. Empathy is a matter of learning how to understand someone else—both what they think and how they feel.F. Good social skills—including empathy—are a kind of “emotional intelligence” that will help you succeed in many areas of life.G. Having relationships with other people is an important part of being human—and having empathy is decisive to those relationships.三、完形填空（20空）I love roller coasters.

From 2019 to 2021, China’s pet market grew by almost 18% and hit 348.8billion yuan in value in 2021, according to a report by Research Consulting Group.As the pet economy develops, animal lovers’ various needs have boosted the emergence and development of related businesses such as bathing, pet food, pet beauty and healthcare.In addition to basic services, pet owners are increasingly paying for many new services, such as training, pet funerals, insurance, photography and entertainment. The growing pet market has also given birth to a large number of new pet-related jobs, noted CCTV News.Liu Wei, 33, is a famous pet detective in Shanghai. He and his team work on finding families’ lost pets. “We have successfully helped find more than 1,000 pets. Besides cats and dogs, there are other pets like birds, lizards and hamsters,” Liu said. “In many big cit ies, cats and dogs have become an important part of many families and are taken good care of. So what we look for are not just pets, but family members.”Apart from pet undertakers and detectives, some people work as pet food testers, pet sitters and pet trainers. According to Tu Di, secretary—general of the Hunan Pet Industry Association, the booming pet market shows people’s improved living standards.However, there are also problems with the industry, for example, the high fees of taking pets to the vet (兽医). Many pet owners have called for stricter pricing regulations for pet medical services, reported Global Times.4．Why is Liao’s story mentioned in the first paragraph?A．To introduce the topic.

To mark the occasion, the UN Office at Geneva, Switzerland, organized the first Chinese Language Video Festival (CLVF).Participants from 27 countries, including the US, the UK, France, Germany, Italy and Japan, took part in the one-hour special event, sharing their passion for the Chinese language and culture through short videos. Over 340 video submissions (提交) told touching stories about a civilized, modern and youthful China through participants’ personal experiences in the country.Though some people find the language difficult to learn, most find it to be rewarding.For M. Yousaf from Pakistan, learning Chinese gave him a better perspective (视角) and insight into the culture. “Learning Chinese is not just learning a language. It’s a language of one of the biggest populations in the world,” Yousaf said. “If you know this language, you kno w the civilization and mind of the people.”Of course the language itself is unique, particularly considering it’s tonal (音调的) foundation. “Tones are important because a lot of Chinese syllables (音节) sound similar or even the same — the tone changes their meaning,” said Mike Fuksman, an American living in Beijing.To remember Chinese characters, you can connect them with pictures and make some short stories. Many people find it is important to use imagination when learning Chinese. For example, the Chinese character for “tea” has some lines of grass, the roof of a house andpeople drinking tea.Learning any language comes with benefits, particularly for those who are always looking to learn more. Since some languages have “loanwords (外来词)” from Chinese, itm ay be easier for one to pick up Korean or Japanese after studying Chinese. “It helped me so much when I started learning Japanese,” said Yerdana.8．What is the function of Paragraph 3?A．To tell the purpose of the festival. B．To summarize the above paragraphs. C．To introduce the following paragraphs. D．To explain the events of the celebration. 9．How can learners remember Chinese characters according to the passage?A．Making notes. B．Practicing writing. C．Living in China. D．Using imagination.10．What is the benefit of learning Chinese according to Yerdana?A．Great help in learning Japanese. B．Good development of learning ability. C．A good understanding of the people. D．A better insight into the Chinese culture. 11．What is the text mainly about?A．The method of learning Chinese.B．How to write Chinese characters well.C．The benefits of learning foreign cultures.D．A new festival and some stories about learning Chinese.Each year on October 15, Global Handwashing Day is observed to strengthen the health awareness and prevent the spread of infectious diseases. And a hand—shaped robot called “Pepe”, which encourages kids to wash their hands, has helped pupils at a remote Indian primary school to develop habits of personal hygiene (卫生).Pepe was fixed on the wall above a hand—washing station at Wayanad Government Primary School in Kerala, which has about 100 pupils aged 5 and 10. A small video screen behind the green plastic Pepe acted as a “mouth”, allowing researchers to tele—operate the robot to speak to the pupils and draw their attention to the poster outlining the steps of effective hand—washing. A set of moving “eyes” helped Pepe pay attention to the children’s actions.The robot helped pupils wash their hands more effectively, increasing their rates of hand—w ashing by 40 percent. Pupils spent twice as long washing their hands after Pepe’sarrival. And more than 95% of the students could correctly determine when hand—washing with soap has to be done—before a meal and after a visit to the toilet.Hand—washing is one of the most effective ways against the spread of diarrhea and respiratory infections. Dr. Amol Deshmukh, from the University of Glasgow’s School of Computing Science, led the project in partnership with colleagues from Amrita University. He said, “We were delighted by the success of Pepe’s visit to this primary school. The children were excited to interact with this relatively simple machine, which was clearly good for keeping their hands clean. Dr. Bhavani from Amrita University said,” AMMACHI (Amrita Multi Modal Application and Computer Human Interaction) Labs have taken multi plans to address common challenges facing low—income rural communities in India and worldwide using technology.”12．Why was “Pepe” fixed at the Primary School?A．To watch on pupil’ actions.B．To wash children’s hands.C．To freshen the environment. D．To develop children’s health habits. 13．How did the robot bring changes to the pupils?A．By playing with pupils. B．By providing knowledge.C．By offering pupils soap. D．By washing p upils’ hands.14．What can you learn about Pepe’s visit to the primary school?A．It was a failure. B．It had no effect.C．It was a success. D．It was a waste of time.15．What does the underlined word “address” in the last paragraph mean?A．deal with. B．write a place on. C．make a speech to. D．speak to.二、七选五Many people desire to return to school to increase earning potential, realize dreams, or finish something they started long ago.

2023届四川省自贡市高三上学期第一次诊断性考试英语试题
2023届四川省自贡市高三上学期第一次诊断性考试英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Few things offer a much-needed change of scenery like hitting the great outdoors—sharing the experience in a family tent can make it ever more special. Whether you’re going away for a casual weekend or packing light for a hard hike, here are a few of the best family tents.Tahoe Gear Ozark TentIf you’re looking for the best family tent to accommodate upwards of a dozen people, there are few better options than this three-season tent from Tahoe Gear. The interior boasts a height clearance of seven feet, consists of two separate rooms.MSR Habituate TentThe Habituate from MSR is one of the best family tents for packing light, weighing just over 13 pounds and packing down to an incredibly small 23×10×10 inches. Despite its unassuming weight, this lightweight family tent includes durable aluminum poles, guidelines, and storage bags.Coleman Cabin TentTraveling with family often means juggling (尽力同时应付) a lot of responsibilities，and this easy-to-assemble cabin tent from Coleman can offload some of the efforts. This family tent features per-assembled (提前安装好的) poles and an integrated rain fly, so the setup is as simple as unpacking, flexing the poles, and staking the tent into the ground.White-duck Alpha Canvas Wall TentIf you’re traveling with family or a large group that wants the absolute most out of a camping experience, this canvas tent from White-duck will do. It boasts a generous 320 square feet of floor space. Wind and wet weather don’t stand a chance against it, either. While this is certainly not a lightweight or portable tent by any means, its high-quality construction and durability make it a great investment.1．Which one is the best choice for a family preferring light package?A．Tahoe Gear Ozark Tent.B．MSR Habituate Tent.C．Coleman Cabin Tent.D．White-duck Alpha Canvas Wall Tent. 2．What is special about White-duck Alpha Canvas Wall Tent?A．It has two separate rooms.B．It is easy to set up.C．It has portable storage bags.D．It is wind-resistant.3．What is the purpose of this text?A．To promote the sales of tents.B．To argue against risky trips.C．To list safety rules on travelling.D．To offer advice on putting up a tent.Ranked as one of the poorest states in America, Louisiana is often struck by coastal storms and hurricanes. The sky-high poverty and crime rates are destructive for residents—especially for young people. Despite the unfavorable situation, there is a spirit of survival and hope for people living in Baton Rouge. “We choose to live by joy and community more than look at horrible issues and challenges that sometimes feel too big for us to take on,” said Dustin La Font, whose nonprofit, Front Yard Bikes, supports hundreds of students in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, every year as they pedal towards a brighter future.At Front Yard Bikes, students work to build their own bicycle, learning skills like mechanics, welding and cycling safety, while receiving mentoring, academic support, and job training opportunities.“We had to put a ton of energy and love into it,’’ La Font said. “Students learned to saw, drill, measure, cut. They learned to paint, design, and plan. And they built their own program from scratch. Our mission is to create safe spaces that empower our kids to learn about their intrinsic worth as they learn, grow, and build.”Many kids now gather after school in this safe place to ride, play, and help out in the garden. “Pretty much any kid can find a place here to belong,” La Font said. “For the fact that they built their park, there’s ownership over it. They take care of their park.”Front Yard Bikes serves nearly 400 young people a year. To date, 50 students have been certified in mechanics, and 2,000 kids have benefited from the program.“People say to me, ‘Thank you for keeping kids busy and out of the streets’,” La Font said. “I don’t like that because it says kids are the problems to be solved. But they are our greatest resource for our community challenges; they are problem solvers, not trouble makers. My constant fight is trying to get people to see who our kids really are ... and to see that they have something to offer right now.”4．How do people in Baton Rouge feel about their life?A．Desperate.B．Hopeful.C．Over-stressed.D．Satisfied.5．What do we learn about Front Yard Bikes from paragraph 4?A．It is energy-consuming.B．It brings money for kids.C．It builds a sense of competition.D．It frees kids from worries about school-life.6．Why do kids find a sense of belonging in the garden?A．They created the garden themselves.B．They are well protected in the garden.C．They find the garden similar to their home.D．They receive good education in the garden.7．What role do kids play in the community according to La Font?A．They serve as part-time workers.B．They bring about many problems.C．They fall victim to violence and poverty.D．They are helpful in the face of challenges.Research has found that storing crucial pieces of information on an electronic device does not rot your memory skills and can actually increase your ability to remember things you would otherwise forget. Storing important information or smartphones may free up our own memory to store a larger amount of less crucial information, allowing us to keep more in total across our internal and electronic memory banks.Researchers took 158 participants aged between 18 and 71 and showed them up to 12 numbered circles on a screen. Some of the circles would briefly appear pink or blue before all fading to a yellow colour, indicating that they had to be dragged to either the pink side or the blue side of the screen at a later point.Some of the circles were classed as “high value”, some as “low value” and some as zero value. Users had to remember which side of the screen to drag the circles to in order to earn points. In some of the experiments they had to rely on their own memories. In others, they could set an electronic reminder on a device.Researchers found subjects tended to use digital devices to store information about which were the highest-value circles. This led to an 1896 increase in accuracy when placing these circles. They also found, to their surprise, using electronic reminders for high-valuecircles led to a 27% increase in accuracy when differentiating from memory between the low and zero-value circles, even when no electronic reminders had been set for these.The study said that when people store important information on an external device, their brains tend to delete it from their “internal memory”, reallocating (再分配) that space for “low-value content”.“The results show that external memory tools work. Far from causing digital dementia, using an external memory device can even improve our memory for information that we never saved. But we need to be careful that we back up the most important information. Otherwise, if a memory tool fails, we could be left with nothing but lower-importance information in our own memory.”8．What do the underlined words “electronic memory banks” probably refer to? A．People’s brains.B．To-do lists.C．Self-service banks.D．Cellphones.9．How do volunteers earn points in the research?A．By changing the color of the circles.B．By moving the circles to the right side.C．By remembering the number of the circles.D．By classing the circles according to their values.10．What will happen to important information after it is stored in digital devices?A．It will be regarded as low-value content.B．It will be removed from people’s brains.C．It will be grouped automatically based on importance.D．It will be well-preserved despite the failure of digital devices.11．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．Information Age: Phones Are EverywhereB．Promising Future: Phones Shape the WorldC．Note to Self: Phones Don’t Rot MemoryD．Controversial Issue: Phones Act as a Double-edged SwordClimate change has increased average temperatures by1degree Celsius over the past century, making heat waves like this one more frequent and intense than those from any other point in recorded history. As the heat soars, so does the death toll. A worldwide studypublished last month in the journal Nature Climate Change found global warming was responsible for 37% of heat-related deaths between 1991 and 2018. As temperatures tick ever higher, that figure may well rise.“There’s still a lot we don’t know about heatstroke and who’s most likely to be affected by it,” Kenney said.“That’s because we can’t morally study it in humans in the laboratory. A lot of what we know comes from studies on animal models, like mice and rats, or from examinations of people who have died of heat stroke.”We are also learning more, about how to avoid overheating. A 2019 study by University of Sydney researcher Ollie Jay found that electric fans cooled body temperatures and reduced cardiovascular (心血管的) strain in hot, humid weather. But in dry heat, fans actually increase body temperature—meaning access to air conditioning is crucial.But the most likely assurance against dying of extreme heat is preventing the rise of global temperatures. Last year tied 2016 for the hottest ever recorded worldwide. Despite a brief drop in planet-heating emissions as the COVID-19 pandemic shuttered factories and idled cars, we’re on track to see global temperatures increase this century by about 3 degrees Celsius. Changing that trend requires rapidly and greatly reducing fossil fuel use and finding ways to remove more carbon from the atmosphere than we release. Efforts so far have not been enough. Global oil demand, the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries predicted last month, will jump by 5 million barrels per day in the second half of 2022 compared with the first six months.12．What can we know about temperature rise from paragraph 1?A．It didn’t happen until the 21st century.B．It is brought about by the progress of history.C．It will lead to more deaths if it isn’t stopped.D．It contributes to 37% of deaths between 1991 and 2018.13．Why does some knowledge about heat stroke remain unknown to humans? A．Humans are too complex to study.B．Animal models are hard to deal with.C．Heat stroke happens to humans randomly.D．Using humans as subjects for lab experiments is immoral.14．How to stop the rise of global temperatures?A．By banning fossil fuel use.B．By using more air conditioners.C．By reducing carbon in the atmosphere.D．By containing the COVID-19 pandemic.15．What does the writer think of the current efforts in handling climate change? A．Fruitless.B．Improper.C．Inadequate.D．Unexpected.二、七选五You’re out on a hike, snacking on an apple,a banana, or a handful of nuts. When you’re finished, all that’s left is a core, a peel, perhaps a shell.“It’s natural,”you tell yourself, throwing it away carelessly. After all，food waste is biodegradable(可生物降解的).___16___It could take years to biodegrade, endanger animals, or even put other people at risk.Food waste doesn’t decompose as fast as you think___17___.But fewer people are aware that food waste like orange and banana peels can take up to two years to break down in the wild. And even if those food waste finally biodegrade, they can lead to many serious problems.Animals are attracted to food waste“Animals have a super advanced sense of smell compared to us,”says Jeff Marion, a biologist. All human food can attract animals. This can cause“attraction behavior”, which refers to human actions that cause animals to overcome their natural caution of people.___18___Human food can make animals sickAnimals becoming attracted to and subsequently used to human food can lead tofar-reaching health issues in animals. Food waste by the roadside may cause animals deaths because wildlife attracted to that food can be hit by a vehicle. ___19___.Most food waste is never animals’ normal diet, which can be deadly.___20___To prevent any of these unwelcome effects, the best thing to do is to store and deal with food waste well. Don’t throw it about. Don’t burn it,as it is more difficult to burn. And if you pass other food waste on the trail or in the park, pick it up, even if it’s not yours.A．Most people know food waste is biodegradableB．Play your part by keeping your food to yourselfC．Make sure you won’t throw food waste randomlyD．The food itself can also make animals sick and even kill themE．Animals can’t get to know the harm that human food containsF．This sort of attraction behavior can quickly become dangerousG．But food waste can cause a lot more damage than you may think三、完形填空Ten minutes to go and I could close up the shop. There were still a few ___21___who couldn’t decide what to buy，who___22___this perfume and then that one. I had a fake(假的)smile___23___on my face as I waited for them to make up their minds.They___24___without buying anything.It was ten minutes past 5:00.They had___25___my time.Sometimes I wondered if this was really what___26___was about. ___27___ from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.,I caught just a glimpse of the sunrise on my way to work.

Some foreign athletes have commented on the passion of Chinese spectators(观众).Not all the spectators, however, came outlooking e_actly good. Girls holding umbrellas on beach volleyball stands. Spectators crying sharply during the hockey matches. These can be unintendeddisturb. To avoid them, we’d keep in mind some special manners:Beach volleyball1. Dress down for beachvolleyball. It’s also a good time to show off your colorful top and se_y shorts.2. Use protective creamfor your skin. Wear sunglasses and bring something to drink. But don’t carrysomething that blocks others’ view.3. Look all you want atthe body shapes around you, but save some attention for the players’skills.Archery _amp; shooting1. Sit at the back oron either side of the field. For safety’s sake, do not risk out of there.2. Above all, keepquiet during the match. Put your cellphone on vibrate or turn it off.3. Do not use the flashon your camera, because it can disturb the athletes.4. When the athletesare aiming at the target, keep your voice down.Baseball, basketball _amp; football1. Drinks in glassbottles or cans are not allowed.2. Don’t bring awhistle. Referees use them and you can puzzle the players.3. Players can be tensewhen taking a shot. Keep the cheering down at critical moments. Do not use thecamera flash.4. If you easily getnervous, bring some snacks. Keep your mouth moving to calm you down. Cycling _amp; marathon1. Spectators shouldkeep off the track. Control your pets.2.Cyclists or runners might look tired, sweaty and thirsty, but, do not hand thema bottle of water, a cool towel or anything else. Any help from spectators candisqualify(剥夺资格)an athlete.3. Again, if a cyclistor runner falls, do not rush over to help. The best thing to do is to contact medical personnel.51. When watching beachvolleyball matches, you should not __________.A. bring anything todrink B.use an umbrella on standsC. wear sunglassesD.look at the body shapes52. You’d better not_________.A. eat anything whenwatching matches B. usecamera flash when watching cyclingC. shout loudly whenwatching archery D.stay where you sit when watching shooting53. If you go to watchmarathon, you can not ________.A. bring your petsB. give athletes something to drinkC. cry sharplyD. ask medical personnel to help athletes54. The passage mainlytells us ___________.A. how spectatorsdisturb athletes B.how spectators help athletesC. dos and don’ts whilewatching matches D. some rulesfor sports eventsBWearing ties was originally the mark ofBritain’s most powerful classes, which made the tie itself a symbol of powerand respect. And that led it to be adopted by a much larger tribe——the business tribe.You cannot wear a tie if you work withmachinery. So wearing a tie became a sign that you were a man who used your brain to make a living, rather than your hands. It showed you were serious. Itshowed you were a professional. It meant that everyone who wanted a job inbusiness had to wear one. It was just impossible to take seriously a man whodidn’t wear a piece of colored silk around his neck.This is how millions of people came to bewearing ties across the world. They are part of the uniform of business.;Ties offer a point of indifference,;says John Milne, head of the British Guide of Tie Makers.; They give a chance to say something about their own personality.;So if you happen to meet a man with a verybrightly colored tie, there is a good chance that he is the office joker. Thereis also a good chance that he will be wearing brightly colored socks.Is there a future forties? The signs are not promising. Tie wearing seems to rare amongst the newbread of entrepreneurs (创业者) in the Internet and new technology industries.Many political leaders, including British Prime Minister Tony Blair, now gowithout ties. This shows they are men of the people——butnot the people wearing ties.Up until around 1960, it was common for menacross the Western world to wear hats as part of their business uniform. Thatchanged with the election of John F. Kennedy to the presidency of the United States. Kennedy never wore a hat——in fact his nickname was ;hatless Jack;. Seeing that the most powerful man in the world did not have to wear a hat, millions of other men decided that they did not have to, either. Hatssimply vanished across the Western world. Perhaps ;tielessTony; (UK Prime Minister Tony Blair) will have the same effect as;hatless Jack;.55. In Britain, tieswere first used as a sign to show a person’s ________.A. personalityB. socialposition C.wearing style D.favorite hobby56. In the businessworld, wearing a tie was necessary because ________.A. it showed you used your brainB. it showed you got agood salaryC. it showed you were an employerD. it showed you were well-trained57. The writer may holdthe opinion that ________.A. Blair is the best leader in the worldB. Kennedy is the best leader in the worldC. millions of people will go to work without atie D. people will wear hatsinstead of ties58. The underlined word;vanished; in this passage may mean ________.A. soldB.washedC. appearedD. disappearedCPeople often talk as if shyness is a disease ormental condition that can be cured. I prefer to think of it as an emotional disability. It’s something we are born with and something we carry with us inour entire lives. There are too many people, however, who seem to be determinedto find some way of doing away with their shyness. In my opinion, it’s a wasteof time. I don’t mean that we should do nothing about it; quite the contrary, Ithink we need to separate the basic fact of our shyness from our ability totake part in a social environment.Look at one of the most famous shy people ofthem all, Johnny Carson. This man is painfully shy, yet for decades he made aliving talking and associating(交往) with different people every night, in front ofa national audience. Carson has never done away with his shyness, but he hassuccessfully found a way to deal with it to the e_tent that he could be, notjust a talk show host, but a legend (传奇) among talk showhosts. Look also at Sally Fields, who has recently admitted her problem withshyness. This is a woman who has appeared in many films, TV shows and interviews,yet in her early years she was so shy that she turned down a lunch invitation fromJane Fonda because she was terribly afraid of meeting her.I guess that our shyness is there because eachof us is born with some insecurity(不安全感)and thisinsecurity prevents us from reaching out to others the way people with a moreopen personality do. As we grow up and become adults, we allow our social skills to grow and develop. But we are still stuck in kindergarten or elementary school or wherever it was when our shyness took root in our soul.59. In the author’sview, shyness can be e_plained as ________.A. a disease that can be easily curedB. a not very normal mental conditionC. an emotional disabilityD. something we pick up after birth60. Which of thefollowing is TRUE of Johnny Carson?A. He has delt with shyness very successfully.B. He has done away with his shyness carefully.C. He is described as a hero in some legendbooks.D. He failed to become a good talk show host.61. The passage tellsus that Sally Fields was ________.A. proud all the timeB. impolite when youngC. shy in her early yearsD. close to Jane Fonda62. The author thinksthat our shyness is there because ________.A. we are not open enoughB. we don’t feel secure at heartC. we try to reach out to others all the timeD. we lack some social skillsDThe Italian island of Sardinia recently lost itsoldest citizen. Family members say Antonio Todde died in his sleep early thismonth. Mr Todde was 112 years old. He was less than three weeks away from his113th birthday. Record-keeping e_perts say he was the world’s oldest man.His long life and that of other very old Sardiniansare the subjects of a scientific project called Akea. Luca Deiana of Sassari University is directing the study. He says the name Akea comes from a traditionalgreeting on Sardinia. It means 〝health and life for 100 years.; Professor Deiana and his team started to collect information for the study in 1997, Theyidentified(确定) more than 220 Sardinians who were centenarians——100 years old or older. His team required three uments to confirm a person’sage. They were a government birth record, a church record and a statement by a closefamily member.The Akea study has produced two major findings.The first is Sardinia’s e_tremely high number of centenarians. The island hasabout 135 centenarians for every one million people. In other Western countries, the average is about seventy-five centenarians for every onemillionpeople. The second major finding was an unusual rate of female to male centenarians. Sardinia has two women centenarians for every male centenarian.In central Sardinia there are equal numbers of female and male centenarians.Studies in other parts of the world have shown amuch higher percentage of female centenarians. The Akea study collected information about the health and diet of about 140 of the centenarians. Aboutninety percent of those in the study also agreed to provide blood for scientific testing. The study team hopes to identify genetic material in the bloodthat can be linked to successful aging. Study leaders say there is no single reason why people on Sardinia live so long. They believe the answer is a combinationof genetic and environmental conditions.63. Centenarians arepeople who are ________ years old.A. 200B. 100C. 300D. 40064. Which of thefollowing is the main idea of the passage?A. Why people on Sardinia live so long.B. The world’s oldest woman.C. The world’s oldest man.D. A scientific study on centenarians.65. Which of thefollowing statements is true according to the passage?A. Other parts of the world have a higher rate offemale centenarians than Sardinia.B. There are equal numbers of female and male centenarians on Sardinia.C. Sardinia has an unusual rate of male to female centenarians.D. There are about seventy-five centenarians forevery one million people on Sardinia.第Ⅱ卷 ( 四部分,共40分 )第四部分:写作(共四节,满分40分)第一节:阅读表达(共5小题;每题2分,满分10分)阅读下面的短文,根据要求完成 66-70小题.Chat rooms and messaging can be great fun, butremember, you never really know who you are talking to online．It could be someone trying to trick you,some kind of weirdo(古怪的人),or someone really dangerous．Here are some tips tohelp you keep safe:● Never use your real name in chat rooms—pick a specialonline nickname．● Never tell anyone personal thin gs about yourself or yourfamily—like your address ortelephone number,orthe school or clubs you go to．That goes for sending them photos as well (thatway if you don’t want to hear from them again,you only have to log off.)

Are you always checking your smartphone to see how many‘likes’you’ve received for your latest post?Maybe you feel comforted by the notification sound that someone has sent you a message?
