Though this procedure (程序) has only been successfully performed on animals so far, doctors are still hopingto perform this procedure on humans. However, in my opinion, brain transplants should not be performed at all, especially not on humans because of the large number of problems and side effects that could come along with. Hopefully these dangerous side effects will convince doctors not to perform this procedure on humans.Despite many benefits technology brings. I do not think this medical technology of brain transplants will help. We were all born with one brain and through childhood to adults our mind developed into who we are, so if with a different brain we would no longer be unique. A person with a different brain would seem to be a total stranger and in many ways they would be. No one should steal our identity from us, even if we are seriously injured, and change it to a completely new one. Also for the people who have died with healthy brains, that was their identity and it should not be given to anyone else.Another problem with brain transplants is how doctors can choose what are “healthy” or “normal” brains. An elderly person who has died would have an aged brain that would not be as efficient as younger person’s brain. Then would doctors have to find healthy brains of the same age as the person who needs it? This could also bring up other factors such as intelligence, sex, or physical problems that a person might have had before death. Also another problem might be how long a brain can be kept “alive” after death and how it can be kept “alive” without damage.Overall. my feelings about this operation are that it should not be done on humans until doctors have overcome all the problems and challenges that stand in their way of making human brain transplants successful.4. Why does the author think brain transplants should not be performed at all?A. The cost of the operation is extremely high.B. Doctors are not able to perform brain transplants.C. A good many problems and side effects may arise.D. This procedure has only been successful on animals5. What is the second paragraph mainly about?A. People shouldn’t give their healthy brains to others.B. Having a brain transplant means losing one’s identity.C. Transplanting brains is changing old brains into new ones.D. Having brain transplants indicates stealing identity from others.6. What is the writers’ attitude towards brain transplants an humans?A. indifferentB. favorableC. disapprovingD. objective7. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A. To encourage brain donation.B. To stress the importance of brain operation.C. Toargue against brain transplants on humans.D. To introduce the technology of brain transplants.CEarthquake can disrupt whales’ hunting for food for up to a year,according to a new study.On November 14, 2016, the Kaikoura earthquake struck New Zealand’s South Island, causing a destructive tsunami. Under the surface, the earthquake caused strong currents that swept away and mostly killed off diverse ecosystems of creatures living along the Kaikoura underwater canyon.As a result, whales had to dive deeper and longer to find food—“a major shift” in their behavior, says co-author Liz Slooten, a marine biologist at the University of Otago in New Zealand.The impact earthquakes have on land animals has been well documented, but scientists know ly little about what happens underwater. Such research is important for government agencies, which may need to take recent earthquakes into consideration when considering fishing quotas(限额), notes Rochelle Constantine, a marinemammal ecologist at the University of Auckland.The canyon’s upper reaches are rich in creatures, supplying food for the fish that make up the whales’ diet. So when these smaller life forms were washed away, it had “severe consequences for the community around there”, says study co-author Will Rayment. “That effect flowed all the way through the food chain.”As part of their ongoing study, the scientists were tracking 42 individual whales. After the earthquake, in all, the team managed to record data on 40 whales, showing that the abundance of whales in the general area didn’t change after the earthquake. However, the whales changed how they used their habitat.A year after the earthquake, the researchers observed the whales returning to their previous surface-breathing intervals. This could have been because the communities of animals that make up the whales’ food began to recover. “It gives you an idea of how resilient(有复原力的)these deep-sea communities are,” says Rayment.But he and his colleagues will continue long-term monitoring to see if there are effects they missed. Whale activity in the area had already been declining, though it’s unknown whether it is due to natural changes in food abundance, whale-watching tourism, fishing, or warming ocean temperatures. “There is something going on in Kaikoura,” says Rayment.8. What happened after the Kaikoura earthquake in the Kaikoura canyon?A. Several destructive tsunamis struck the area.B. Whales had to swim to other oceans to find food.C. Nearly all marine creatures in Kaikoura were killed off.D. Strong currents washed away many smaller creatures.9. Which is one of the findings of the study?A. Earthquakes can make it easier for whales to find food.B. The whales changed their habitat after the earthquake.C. It usually takes whales a year to adapt to their new diet.D. The number of whales in the area dropped sharply after the quake.10. What does Rochelle Constantine think of the study?A. It can help government agencies to make some decisions about fishing.B. It can help government agencies to solve problems in the fishing industry.C. It is a breakthrough in research on what happens underwater after an earthquake.D. It offers a detailed description of the impact earthquake have on marine mammals.11. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Something is affecting the whale activity in Kaikoura.B. Fishing quotas have been increasing in recent years.C. The team missed some effects in the research process.D. The scientists will continue studying earthquakes.DAmerica---that glorious symbol of multiculturalism, the great melting pot---qualifies as part of the developed world, right? Not quite, if we consider the state of second language learning in schools across the country. According to a 2018 study, Europe often tops the U.S. in foreign language education in school. 92% of European students are learning a foreign language in school. In America it’s only 20%. In more than 20 European countries, studying a foreign language for at least one year is compulsory. In comparison, only 10 states and D.C. require learning a foreign language for graduation.I went to a public school in Pennsylvania that ranked onNewsweek’s list of America’s top high schools in 2015. Foreign language learning was not a graduation requirement. A common response to such stories and statistics is: So what? Why should Americans care about learning another language when English has recently seemed to dominate as the official language of the world?The world is globalizing faster than we can imagine. More than half of the world’s population speaks more than one language. It is also increasingly becoming the need for success in this globalizing world. Having the ability to speak a second language opens up the possibility of travelling and immersing yourself in another part of the world. This means people can feel other cultures, and traditions in places you were previously kept away because you could not communicate in the language.The teaching of foreign languages can be instrumental in bringing about peace and unity in the country we live in. Learning a second language can be an efficient vehicle to help to bridge communities. To speak another language means having access to a universe of different experiences and world views of another community of people.12. Why does the writer mention Europe?A. America makes studying a foreign language compulsory.B. America is the glorious symbol of multiculturalism.C. America isn’t really qualified as the developed world.D. America doesn’t focus on foreign language education13. What is American’s attitude towards education of foreign languages?A. Less concerned.B. More worried.C. Quite doubtful.D. Very supportive.14. What can visiting people do if they can speak the language where they visit?A. Make the world globalizing.B. Achieve success in business.C. Experience people’s real life there.D. Keep away their own culture.15. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. Using a second language can bring harmony.B. Communities of people enjoy the great views.C. Speaking another language is reallynecessary.D. Learning a second language can be difficult.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。
2020年上饶市第一中学高三英语模拟试卷及答案
2020年上饶市第一中学高三英语模拟试卷及答案第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AIn Sweden, McDonald’s is building “bee hotels” on the back of its roadside billboards (广告牌) to help save the country’s decreasing bee population. It launched the campaign together with outdoor advertising giant JCDecaux. Six large wooden bee hotels, with drilled holes on the front, first appeared on the back of a north-facing billboard in Jarfalla in September.“Without pollination (授粉) from bees, a thirdof the food we eat would be threatened.” McDonald’s said. But it turns out that at least 30 percent of the country’s wild bee population is endangered, according to the fast-food chain. A big problem is that they lack places to live. Based on data released by Chalmers University of Technology, we know Sweden owns 274 species of bees, of which 37 species are bumblebees, and more than a third are decreasing or face the risk of decreasing. Their natural habitats have been damaged by factors including the changes of agricultural activities and fast urbanization (城市化). Fortunately, most bees are able to survive in urban habitats, like the bee hotels.Every McDonald’s authorized restaurant in Sweden will be allowed to order their own bee hotel billboards and design the messages by themselves, as the fast-food chain says. It is their hope that the number of hotels could grow to a greater extent in the near future. Great efforts in addition to that have been made by the company. On World Bee Day, May 20, it introduced “the world’s smallest McDonald’s”. McHive, which could function as an actual beehive (蜂箱). Designed by set designer Nilsson himself, the creation was sold for $10,000 at a charity fundraiser held for Ronald McDonald House Charities.Beehives can be found on the rooftops of some McDonald’s restaurants in Sweden, too. This took place in certain areas but is now followed by an increasing number of participants. More McDonald’s restaurants are making an effort to improve the living conditions of wild bees by removing the grass round their restaurants to grow flowers and plants instead.1. According to the passage, the challenge that wild bees are facing is ________A. the fast process of industry.B. the world's Large amount of trash.C. the rapid development of urbanization.D. the sharp growth of population.2. How does McDonald's help wild bees in Sweden?A. By providing shelters for bees.B. By offering food to bees.C. By advertising rescue activities.D. By putting up more billboards.3. What is the best title for the text?A. Wild bees in dangerB. The loss of bees’ habitatsC McDonald’s bee hotelsD. The protection of wild beesBBeing an Olympian (奥运会选手) demands focus, determination, and a competitive spirit. Plus, representing your country is a lot of pressure. However, two athletes recently showed the world another quality that is definitely worth championing.Qatar's Mutaz Essa Barshim and Italy's Gianmarco Tamberi were competing in the high jump on Sunday when they reached a stalemate (僵局). Both men had managed to jump over a surprising 2.37 meters with no faults along the way. However, after three attempts neither managed the next level of 2.39 meters.An Olympic official suggested ajump-offbetween the two friends and rivals (竞争对手) to determine who would get the gold medal. But Barshim had another plan to reward their efforts.“Can we have two golds?” he asked the official.The official agreed and the two men jumped for joy. This was the first time a gold medal had been shared since 1912. “He is one of my best friends, not only on the track, but outside the track. We work together. This is a dream come true.” shared Barshim.The decision to share the medal was particularly meaningful to Tamberi. The Italian had suffered an ankle injury that prevented him from competing in the Rio Olympics in 2016, and it nearly put an end to his career altogether. So this year he brought along his cast to this year's Olympics with “Road to Tokyo 2021” to inspire him along the way.For Barshim, the gold has topped off his already impressive medal collection, having received a bronze and a silver medal in 2012 and 2016 respectively.Despite all the glory of receiving a gold medal for their countries, their achievement means so much more. These two individuals, trying to do their very best for their countries, have provided a wonderful example to all those competing in sports. They've summed up exactly what it means to take part in a global event with a generous and compassionate (有同情心的) spirit.4. What happened to Barshim and Tamberi in the competition?A. They ended in a tie.B. They quit the competition.C. They set a new record.D. They ran out of strength.5. What does the underlined word “jump-off” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Debate.B. Vote.C. Celebration.D. Extra round.6. Why was the gold medal particularly meaningful to Tamberi?A. It could bring him a lot of money.B. It may make up for his regret in 2016.C. It was a glory for his country.D. It could complete his medal collection.7. What does the author mainly want to convey in the text?A. The importance of sharing.B. The glory of winning gold medals.C. The valuable and special team spirit.D. The considerate and sharing Olympic spirit.CTaking an afternoon nap could keep your brain sharp, a new study has said. Adults ages 60 and older who took afternoon naps showed signs of better mental ability compared to those who didn’t nap, according to a study published in General Psychiatry earlier this week.Researchers analyzed napping habits in 2, 214 older Chinese people and measured their cognitive abilities using several cognitive tests. Participants took the Mini-Mental State Examination and theBeijingversion of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, both of which test for memory, language and other cognitive abilities. In every category listed in the study, nappers tested statistically higher on average compared to their non-napping counterparts.Researchers did not gather data from people under 60, so a correlation cannot be drawn between napping and younger generations. The study also noted that there are conflicting studies about the benefits and risks of napping.Sleeping behaviors can be affected by a multitude of factors, said Dr. David Neubauer, associate professor atJohnsHopkinsUniversity. “Daily routines, medication use and sleep disorders can all play a role in how frequently someone takes a nap.” he said.Neubauer recommended taking a shorter “power nap” of up to 20 minutes to decrease the chances of transitioning into slow-wave sleep, which makes people feel groggy when they wake up. “Napping can be a healthy part of an older adult’s day”, Neubauer acknowledged, but make sure “sleepiness isn’t due to a treatable nighttime sleep disorder.” Older individuals who want to do all they can to preserve their cognitive functioning should put nighttime sleep first.8. What is the best way to keep a better cognitive ability for the old?A. Take a nap every day.B. Take sleep disorder seriously.C. Have a good sleep at night.D. Do exercise regularly.9. How did the researchers reach the conclusion?A. By taking the examinations and assessment.B. By analyzing napping habits and giving tests.C. By measuring nappers’ ability and analyzing them.D. By doing an experiment.10. Which has NO effect on one’s sleeping behaviors?A. Taking a nap.B. Medicine treatmentC. Sleep problemsD. Everyday activities.11. What can we know about “slow-wave sleep”?A. It appears in short nap up to 20 minutes.B. People should avoid it in their naps.C. It is a healthy part of an elder’s day.D. It was recommended by Neubauer.DIt’s become an accepted part of keeping up to date with extended family and friends, but if schoolchildrenwere in their parents’ shoes, the majority wouldn’t share posts of their sons and daughters online. Over 55% said they would not upload news about, or images of, their children to their social media feeds, according to survey of over 16,000 pupils by Votes for Schools.While some were concerned about being embarrassed or the longevity of content which could remain online indefinitely, others expressed concern about their personal data beingcompromised. One of the pupils surveyed said, “Although our parents mean well, sometimes theconsequenceof a post can be disastrous.”In response to thesurvey, children’s mental health charity Place2Be and law firm Mishcon de Reya have produced three films ahead of the Christmas holidays – the best period for parental oversharing.In one video, about safety online, 10-year-old Adavan said, “If you share anything with your family, you know who’s going to see it. But if you share it publicly, there are millions of people who can see your picture.”Joe Hancock, a security lead at Mishcon de Reya, encouraged parents to share wisely. “Simple steps, such as checking your privacy settings and asking others not to share content of your children on their accounts if they have not updated their privacy settings, are a good start. And, as we found out from the children during filming, having their permission is key,” he said.The study marks a shift away from the usual debate about teaching children to use the Internet safely. Sandra Davis, head of the law firm’s family department, said, “Children are the experts on the real and immediate impact of sharenting(晒娃)– the full extent of which we cannot know yet. We must ensure we listen to children and take their views into consideration now in order to avoid any unintendedconsequences further down the line.”12.What’s most pupils’ attitude towards sharing posts about children?A. Skeptical.B. Unconcerned.C. Tolerant.D. Unwilling.13.What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?A. Summarize the previous paragraph.B. Provide some advice for parents.C. Predict the consequence of sharing posts.D. Give reasons for the result of the survey.14.What should parents first pay attention to according to Joe Hancock?A. Safety.B. Consequence.C. Wisdom.D. Health.15.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Parents should take children’s opinions into account.B. Parents should teach children to use the Internet safely.C. Children must make sure to listen to their parents.D. Children should avoid unintended consequences of sharenting.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。

Taking after his father, Picasso shared apassion(热爱)for painting and art. Even though he wasn't the best student in school, Picasso excelled at drawing. Noticing his amazing talent, Picasso's father, an artist, taught him everything he knew. Before long, Picasso could paint and draw much better than his father. With this rich talent, Picasso paid less and less attention to his schoolwork and spent the majority of his day sketching and drawing in notepads and sketchbooks.When he was a little bit older, Picasso moved twice and was accepted into two fine art programs. However, he didn't care very much for the special techniques they taught and often wandered the streets by himself drawing the scenes around him. After moving to these two places, Picasso moved back home toBarcelonaand decided that he would develop new techniques of art and painting based on what he saw.Later, Picasso decided to move toParis,France, where he began perfecting his own techniques of painting, drawing and other forms of art.

Growing up inAustralia, I had the good fortune of having the sea at my side. The first time I went toHalfmoonBay,I suddenly had the feeling of not being able to feel the ground with my feet anymore.For my 10th birthday, my sister and I were taken out to theGreat Barrier Reef. There were fish in different color1 s, caves and layers of coral. They made such an impression on me. When I learned that only one percent ofAustralia’sCoral Seawas protected, I was shocked. Australian marine (海洋的) life is particularly important because the reefs have more marine species than any other country on earth. But sadly, only 45% of the world’s reefs are considered healthy.This statistic is depressing, so it’s important for usto do everything to protect them. The hope that theCoral Searemains a complete ecosystem has led me to take action. I’ve become involved with the Protect Our Coral Sea activity, which aims to create the largest marine park in the world. It would serve as a place where the ocean’s species will all have a safe place forever.Together, Angus and I created a little video and we hope it will inspire people to be part of the movement.Angus also shares many beautiful childhood memories of the ocean as a young boy, who grew up sailing, admiring the beauty of the ocean, and trying to find the secrets of ocean species.8. What can we learn about the author from the underlined sentence inPara. 1?A. He seldom went surfing at the sea.B. He forgot his experiences about the ocean.C. He never went back to his hometown.D. He had a wonderful impression ofHalfmoonBay.9. What is Australian marine life like according to the second paragraph?A. It is escaping from theCoral Seagradually.B. It depends on reefs for living greatly.C. It may be faced with danger.D. It is protected better than that in other oceans.10. What’s the purpose of The Protect Our Coral Sea activity?A. It is intended to contribute to a complete ecosystem.B. It is intended to prevent more marine species being endangered.C. It is intended to set up a large nature reserve for reefs.D. It is intended to raise more teenagers’ environmental awareness.11. Why do Angus and the author create a little video?A. To urge more people to take action toprotect the marine species.B. To inspire more people to explore the secret of the ocean.C. To share their childhood experiences about the ocean.D. To bring back to people their memory of ocean species.DI am a part of the Windward Robotics team known as the Omnicats, one of the many clubs offered at my school. My eight teammates and I started out by watching the robotics qualifiers and finals of Chinese teams. We used these robotics videos for inspiration and drew up mind maps of what our team wanted to do.We meet every day for two hours after school in order to build our robots. Typically, adultsoverseewhat students are building, but my school lets teens take control. It leaves room for more errors, but we're prouder of our final product.Before our first real match, a practice was offered at the actual site. My sub-team had been further alongthan other teams but quickly fell behind. When we arrived on that big day, I immediately felt my teammates' nervousness. Our first match was in three minutes. All of us glanced around at each other since we were not prepared at all. Our robot was still sitting in a box. Two of our teammates rushed to take the robot for an official examination as the rest of us discussed our strategy (策略).Our team captain explained that we all should try driving the robot now, while it was early in the season. She gave me the remote. I had only driven for a limited amount of time in practice so I was extremely nervous. Our autonomous code (自动代码) beganto run almost immediately after our short discussion. Despite all the drama, we ended up winning the match.Not too bad for the first match! I was so proud. I did not enjoy the pressure of driving but liked building the robot behind the scenes instead.We have transferred to a different type of robotics at the end of the semester, which involves the whole team designing one giant robot with large tools. I am a part of the electrical team now, so I make sure the motherboard (母板) can supply the robot's energy needs. We have all enjoyed the rest of the season and learned that robotics it never dull!12. What does the underlined word in paragraph 2 probably mean?A. InspectB. AdmireC. OverlookD. Assume13. Why did her teammatesfed so nervous before first match?A. Because it was really too difficult for them.B. Because they didn't prepare for it at all.C. Because they didn't know what the match would be like.D. Because they didn't make full preparations before the match.14. How did the author feel about their first robotics match?A. It was tiring but exciting.B. It was stressful but wonderful.C. It was terrible but powerful.D. It was boring but professional15. What is the best title for the text?A. A Girl Who Loves RobotsB. My First Robotics MatchC. Teamwork for RobotsD.

But rarely does a young person get to meet or talk to their idol. Yet for one young tennis player - Coco Gauff - her chance to do just that happened in an amazing way!Coco was born on March 13, 2004. At the age of 4, she developed an interest in tennis after watching Venus Williams win the Australian Open on TV. Coco began playing at 7 and showed a real talent for the sport. When young Coco turned 10, she began training at a tennis centre run by Venus's coach, Patrick Mouratoglou. He still remembers the first time he met Coco. He says, “She impressed me with her determination and fighting spirit. ” Convinced of her talent, Mouratoglou sponsored(资助)Coco to attend his academy in France. While she was preparing to go to the academy in 2019, she received a call that would change her plans and her life!Wimbledon(温布尔顿网球比赛)organizers called and offered Gauff entry to the tournament(联赛)as a wildcard(外卡选手).This madeher one of the youngest players to ever qualify. Before she knew it she was on her way to London. After arriving, she received another surprise. For her Wimbledon debut(首次登场),she would be playing her lifelong hero, Venus Williams! The tennis legend is 24years older than Gauff.The world watched with amazement as young Gauff beat Venus in two straight sets! Afterwards, Gauff shook Venus's hand, thanked her and said, “I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you. " After the match, Venus said of Gauff, “I think the sky is the limit;it really is. " Venus said, “I feel honored that I was on her wall [as a poster] at some point in her life. Soon she will be on other girls' walls. It's nice because it will keep going from the next generation to the next generation. "4. What can we learn about Coco from the text?A. She took up tennis as career at the age of 4.B. She went to academy at the age of 7.C. She had played against William before 10.D. She beat William at the age of 155. Which of the following can best describe Coco?A. Talented and modest.B. Lucky and responsible.C. Proud and hard-working.D. Respectful and cheerful.6. What can we infer from Venus's words?A. Coco had reached her limits.B. Coco would rise to fame after the match.C. Coco's poster would be passed on.D. Coco had once visited her home.7. What can be a suitable title for the text ?A. Coco Gauff:Tennis's Next Superstar.B. Coco Gauff:A Poster on the Wall.C. What Posters Mean to a Young Girl.D. The Significance of Admiring an Idol.CTeens who have good, supportive relationships with their teachers enjoy better healthas adults, according to research published by an American research center.“This research suggests that improving students' relationships with teachers could have positive and long-lasting effects beyond just academic success," said Jinho Kim, a professor atKoreaUniversityand author of the study."Itcould also bring about healthimplicationsin the long run.”Previous research has suggested that teens' social relationships might be linked to health outcomes in adulthood. However, it is not clear whether the link between teen relationships and lifetime health is causal(因果的)-it could be that other factors, such as different family backgrounds, might contribute to both relationship problems in adolescence and to poor health in adulthood. Also, most research has focused on teens' relationships with their peers(同龄人), rather than on their relationships with teachers.To explore those questions further, Kim analyzed data on nearly 20,000 participants from the Add Health study, a national study in theU.S.that followed participants from seventh grade into early adulthood. The participant pool included more than 3,400 pairs of siblings(兄弟姐妹). As teens, participants answered questions, like “How often have you had trouble getting along with other students and your teachers?" As adults, participants were asked about their physical and mental health.Kim found that participants who had reported better relationships with both their peers and teachers in middle and high school also reported better physical and mental health in their mid-20s. However, when hecontrolled for family background by looking at pairs of siblings together, only the link between good teacher relationships and adult health remained significant.The results suggest teacher relationships are more important than previously realized and that schools should invest in training teachers on how to build warm and supportive relationships with their students. "This is not something that most teachers receive much training in," Kim said, “but it should be.”8. What does the underlined word “implications" in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Recipes.B. Habits.C. Benefits.D. Risks.9. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A. Poor health in adolescence.B. Limitations of the previous research.C. Teens' relationships with their peers.D. Factors affecting health in adulthood.10. What does Kim's research show?A. Good adult health depends on teens' good teachers.B. Good family background promises long-term adult health.C. Healthy peer relationships leads to students' academic success.D. Positive student-teacher relationship helps students' adult health.11. Where does this text probably come from?A. A health magazine.B. A medical report.C. A term paper.D. A family survey.DScientists have recently discovered thatAndean condors (秀鹫)— some of the world’s largest birds——barely flap their wings at all while flying. Instead, they use rising air currents to remain in the air for hours.The Andean condor is the world’s largest soaring bird. They can weigh up to 15 kilograms. Their wings, when spread out, measure up to three meters. Their main food source is the meat of large animals which have died. Soaring high in the sky allows condors to easily spot possible meals on the ground.Scientists worked together to study the flight patterns of these huge birds and how much effort the birds use when flying. To study the birds while they were in the sky, the researchers attached special devices which could record every beat of their wings.The scientists learned that most of the condors’ flapping— over 75%— came when the birds were taking off.Once in the sky, the birds flew for very long periods of time without flapping at all. In fact, they only flapped their wings for 1% of the time they were in the air. One bird flew for over five hours without flapping, covering nearly 117miles.Soaring without flapping is important because birds bum energy every time they flap their wings.The birds’ soaring isn’t magic. They use the fact that hot air rises to keep themselves up. As hot air rises, it often creates “thermals”— currents of warm air moving upward. The condors soar by making use of these thermals. The tricky part is finding thermals and moving between them.When birds are forced to land and take off again often, it costs them a lot of energy. The researchers learned that to avoid having to land, the condors did most of their non-take-off flapping when they were closer to the ground and looking for a new thermal.The scientists reported that even though all of the condors they studied were young, they knew well how to take advantage of the air currents.12. What can we learn about the Andean condor from the text?A. They live mairly on small animals.B. Their wingspan is at least three meters.C. They rely on hot air to remain high in the sky.D. They are the birds with the strongest flying ability.13. Why was the equipment tied to the birds?A. To measure how far they could fly without flapping.B. To keep track of how often they flapped while flying.C. To calculate the energy required for their flight.D. To confirm their flight patterns.14. Which of the following acts consumes the most energy for a condor?A. Hunting for food.B. Flying in the sky.C. Getting off the ground.D. Landing on the ground.15. What can we infer from the text?A. Condors flap the most when looking for a new thermal.B. No condor can fly for more than five hours without flapping.C. Condors don’t need to look for thermals when soaring in the sky.D. Soaring by using thermals is probably a natural ability of condors.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。

She can write in English and some Chinese. When she learned to write in cursive this year, Sara said,she thought it was "kind of easy". This is all despite the fact that Sara was born without hands.To write, Sara holds her pencil between her arms and then focuses on the shapes of letters,each point and curve."Writing in cursive feels like creating artwork," Sara said. "I like the way the letters are formed. It's kind of art."Sara has never worn a prosthesis (artificial arms),and when she isoffered help or a tool that might ease some tasks﹣﹣such as cutting paper with scissors﹣﹣she rejects it, said her mother, Cathryn Hinesley. "She has this independent trend where she just knows that she can do it and she'll figure out her own way. She is beautiful and strong and mighty just the way she is, and she just lives that way. She really does. She moves through life in this way that you never really see her as having a disability because she has "I﹣can﹣do, I﹣can﹣solve﹣anything attitude"."Sara is an evidence to strong will and the human spirit." Cathryn said. "Every day I am amazed at things she is capable to do and that she chooses to do. She doesn't attempt to find her way to avoid a difficulty. She finds a way to finish the task."Sara will receive her national award﹣﹣a medal﹣﹣at an award ceremony on June 13, where she will also be given a $500 prize.

She is concerned about Sara's future.(4)In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A. Health.B. Education.C. Science.D. Entertainment.13.(8分)When salmon (大马哈鱼) and steel head don't get the cold water they need,it costs them more energy to survive. Their reproductive success can be reduced and they become more vulnerable to disease."And in the worst case, when water temperatures get too high, it can lead to death," says Joseph Bogaard, executive director of the Seattle﹣based nonprofit Save Our wild Salmon Coalition.That's what happened in the hot summer of 2015, when temperatures all over the Northwest rose quickly and about 250,000 adult sockeye salmon died in the Columbia River Basin. Many scientists refer to that year as a dress rehearsal for climate change. The clear trend is rising water temperatures and falling returns of endangered salmon. Bogaard says the water temperatures routinely rise above 68 degrees.Bogaard says that 2015 dress rehearsal scientists refer to will only get worse."Those kinds of conditions are unusual,but they're becoming more common and they're going to become more frequent as we move forward."He says the Environmental Protection Agency has a model showing dam removal and restoration of the rivers would bring the temperatures down on all but a few days a year. But after20 years of planning, no federal agencies have taken that advice. Conservation groups appealed and last October, a judge ordered the EPA to take action, mentioning the hot water as violation of the Clean Water Act.Advocates say dam removal is the only real option to keep endangered fish from going extinct.Many communities near the dams disagree and are concerned about economic impacts if they're taken down.Save Our Wild Salmon is pressing the governors and members of congressfrom Washington, Oregon and Idaho to find ways to take action.(1)Which of the following statement is true according to the passage?A. Lack of enough cold water will make salmon less energetic.B. High temperature can be beneficial to salmon's productive success.C. High temperature will result in salmon's immediate death.D. Lack of cold water will make salmon easier to fall ill.(2)What does the underlined expression "a dress rehearsal" mean?A. The sign indicating more fish will die due to high water temperatures.B. The final practice of a show that will be in the performance soon.C. The trend that water temperatures will rise above 68 degree.D. The condition that increasing water temperatures are unusual.(3)The obstacle to getting the dams removed is .A. that it will influence the economy near many communities.B. that there are other better ways to save the endangered fish.C. that many people near the dams refuse to accept the option.D. that the governors and congress members oppose the solution.(4)What is the best title for the passage?A. Water temperatures are increasing.B. The urge to save fish from hot water.C. Dam removal can surely save fish.D. Fish are dying out in Columbia.14.(8分)On July 1,Shanghai began a garbage﹣sorting program by law. Under the new regulations, households and companies must classify their wastes into four categories and dump them in appointed places at certain times. Those who won't obey them can lead to fines. Companies and communities that don't obey risk having their credit rating lowered.The strict practice became the talk of the city's more than 24 million residents,who criticized the program's inflexibility and confusing waste categorization. Gratefully, China's tech companies are here to help.For instance, China's biggest internet companies responded with new search features that help people identify which wastes are "wet"(used as fertilizer),"dry", "toxic", or "recyclable". Not even the most environmentally conscious person can get all the answers right. Like,which bin does the newspaper you just used to pick up dog waste belong to? Simply open up a mini app on WeChat,Baidu or Alipay and enter the keyword. The tech firms will give you the answer and why.Alipay,Alibaba's electronics payment platform,claims its garbage﹣sorting mini app added one million users in just three days. The app has so far classified more than 4,000 types of rubbish.Its database is still growing, and soon it will save people from typing by using image recognition to classify trash when they snap a photo of it. Tmall Genie can already answer the question "What kind of trash is a wet wipe?" and more.If people are too busy or lazy to hit the collection schedule, well,companies are offering valet trash service at the doorstep. A third﹣party developer helped Alipay build a recycling mini app and is now collecting garbage from 8,000 apartment complexes (小区) across 11 cities. Till now,two million people have sold recyclable material through its platform.Some residential complexes in Shanghai began using QR codes to trace the origin of garbage,Xinhua reported.Each household is asked to attach a unique QR code to their trash bags, which will be scanned for sources and classification when they arrive at the waste management station. This way,regulators in the region know exactly which family has produced the trash ﹣although the city's current garbage regulations do not require real﹣name tracking ﹣ and those who correctly categorized receive a small reward.(1)If a company doesn't dump rubbish in the appointed places, itA.will receive a heavy fine.B. will not receive are ward.C. it may face a lower evaluation.D. it may be demanded to shut down.(2)What can we learn from the passage?A. We can use image recognition to sort rubbish on Alipay very easily.B. Residents in Shanghai are required to carry on rubbish sorting properly.C. Tmall Genie is trying to develop an app to classify rubbish properly.D.An environmentally conscious person can sort his wastes very easily.(3)How canregulators know the source of the the trash?A. By scanning a unique QR code on the trash bags.B. By using real﹣name tracking the specific household.C. By offeringvalet trash service at the doorstep.D. By asking a third﹣party developer for help.(4)What is the main idea of the passage?A.China's tech companies help classify and trace rubbish.B.China's war on rubbish is widely criticized by residents.C.Alibaba helps residents classify rubbish on its platform.D.Some complexes use QR codes to trace the origin of rubbish.第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.15.(10分)Use and Improve Your AbilitiesEach of us has special skills and abilities to contribute to the world.(1)Whether you are a number whiz(奇才),or you do embroidery (刺绣) or other things, there are ways to put your skills to use and improve them along the way!Recognize your skills.

2019-2020学年江西上饶中学高三英语模拟试卷及答案
2019-2020学年江西上饶中学高三英语模拟试卷及答案第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AWhen it comes to the greatest inventions of the world, China’s name is sure to be mentioned several times. There are hundreds of things which were invented by the Chinese.AlcoholShocked? I was because when they said alcohol I thought about either the US or the UK. China had never crossed my mind. In China, alcohol was made by two legendary persons named Yi Di and Du Kang who belonged to the Xia Dynasty. This period was about 2000 BC - 1600 BC. Research says that in ancient China, beer with 4% alcoholic content was widely consumed by people.TeaChina is the proud inventor of tea which was first drunk by Shen Nong, a Chinese emperor around 2737 BC. Tea production was rapidly developed, making tea a popular drink during the Tang and Song Dynasties.The Mechanical ClockHave you ever wondered what on earth we would be doing without any idea of time? A clock really is an invention without which things were incomplete. The credit of making the first mechanical clock goes to ancient China. The first mechanical clock was invented by Yi Xing in the Tang Dynasty. This was during 618 and 907.Silk FabricSilk, the favorite fabric of many girls out there, is also a Chinese invention. Although we all know that silk is made by silkworms, it was Chinese people who first invented a way to harvest the silk and then use it to make clothes. The oldest silk which has been found so far is in Henan Province and dates back to 3630 BC.1.We can learn from Paragraph 2 that ________.A.people in the US like alcoholB.beer was popular in the Xia DynastyC.Yi Di and Du Kang invented alcohol by accidentD.the author didn’t know alcohol is a Chinese invention2.The author asks the question in Paragraph 4 to show ________.A.ancient Chinese inventors were wiserB.many things in our lives are incompleteC.ancient Chinese people never wasted timeD.the invention of the mechanical clock is important3.Which of the following invention has a longer history?A.Tea.B.Alcohol.C.Silk fabric.D.The mechanical clock.BScientists have long sought to prevent sharp memories from dulling with age, but the problem remains unsettled. Now research published in Scientific Reports suggests virtual reality might help older people recall facts and events based on specific details.The study involved 42 healthy older adults from the San Francisco Bay Area. Half spent a dozen hours over four weeks playing a virtual-reality game called Labyrinth; they wore headsets and walked in place, walking virtual neighborhoods while completing small tasks. The other half, in the control group, used electronic tablets to play games that did not require recalling details. After 15 sessions (期), the latter performed roughly the same as before on a long-term memory test. But the Labyrinth players gain an improvement in memory through the VR game. A scientist Peter Wais of the University of California said the improvements brought them up to the level of another group of younger adults taking the same memory tests.Meredith Thompson, an education researcher, studies learning through VR games but was not involved in the new study. It would be great to actually follow people over time and see what this type of game does for long-term memory. She says, adding VR can provide greater involvement than other games. Wais's team is now investigating how long the observed effects last and which elements of the training have the most impact.A cognitive (认知)psychologist, Daniel Simons, who was also not involved in the study, notes experiments with other games that claim to train the brain have often failed to evaluate this. And it remains unclear how test performance in a laboratorysetting might translate to real-world situations. The outcome, Simons notes, “needs to be repeated, ideally with a much larger group, before it’s treated as a strong finding.”For now, Wais says, the team hopes its studies with similar-sized groups will help draw funding to test the game in a larger pool of participants.4. What is the passage mainly about?A. People's memory gradually fails as they age.B. People of different ages should play VR games.C. Virtual reality changes people's memory.D. Virtual reality improves older adults' memory.5. What is Meredith Thompson's attitude toward the research?A. satisfied.B. enthusiastic.C. cautious.D. concerned.6. According to the scientists, the research needs to be improved due to ________.A. the lack of financial support.B. the limited pool of participants.C. the unsatisfying test performance.D. the impractical application in real world.7. Where may the passage come from?A. A novel.B. A review.C. A magazine.D. A guidebook.CYou must have read "The Tortoise and the Hare(《龟兔赛跑》)" when you were younger. So which animal are you? The tortoise or the hare? Do you rush around trying to do things as quickly as possible? Or do you deal your work at a slow , but steady(稳定的)pace? Whether you approach life like the tortoise or the hare can make a difference in the results you'll see.Some will say that you should avoid being like the hare. After all. he was overconfident and finally lost the race. You mayalso have heard teachers say from time to time that "haste makes waste”. But what does that mean? Most people think it meant that the faster you do something,the more likely it is that you'll make mistakes. Many teaches wantyouto approach your schoolwork thoughtfully and carefully.But does haste always make waste? Not necessarily ! Some people are able to work quickly while also maintaining(保持)a high level of quality in all that they do. Recent research, however, is making the idea of haste making waste seem more believableResearchers found that the brain changes into a special mode(模式)when forced to make rapid decisions. Overall, there appears to be a trade-off between speed and correctness. As the brain makes decisions more quickly, those decisions are usually built on less information, which often leads to a greater likelihood of mistakes.When you approach things like the tortoise. you methodically and steadily work towards your goal. You might not arrive there first, but then again you might! In any case, you're likely to make fewer mistakes and you might just enjoy the journey more than the bare.Goals are great to work towards, but often the achievements aren't what we remember. In the end, the mostmeaningful and important parts of our lives are the journeys we went on , not the destination we reached. So be the hare when you have to, but always remember that the slow and steady journey is what you’ll remember and treasure the most.8. Why does the author mention the story in the first paragraph?A. To introduce the topic.B. To show its popularity.C. To suggest its importance.D. To advise readers to read it.9. For what purpose do teachers often say “haste makes waste to students?A. To ask them not to waste their time.B. To tell them it is OK to make mistakes.C. To ask them to avoid making silly mistakes.D. To tell them they should check their schoolwork.10. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A. How the brain collects the information it needs.B. When the decision made by the brain is correct.C. Why the quickly-made decision is often unwise.D. What the relationship between lime and results is.11. Which of the following may the author agree with?A. Finishing the race is often a victory for everyone.B. Joy is found not in finishing an activity but in doing it.C. The journey to every destination starts with a small step.D. A destination is important because it guides us on the journey.DThe United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) included on December 17, 2020 China's Tai Chi on the RepresentativeList of the Intangible(无形的)Cultural Heritage of Humanity. The decision was announced during the online meeting of the UNESCO Intergovernmental Committee for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage held from December 14 to19 inKingston, capital ofJamaica.“Born in the mid-17th century in a small village named Chenjiagou located in Central China's Henan province, Tai Chi is not only a kind of traditional Wushu integrated with slow movements and deep breathing, but is also deeply rooted in many areas of Chinese culture, such as medicine and philosophy,”Zhu Xianghua says, who is the son of the famous Tai Chi master Zhu Tiancai.Although it has spread to more than 150 countries and regions, attracting more than 100 million people to practice, the idea that Tai Chi is for the elderly has stopped many young people practicing the ancient Wushu. They think of it as a slow exercise, which is specially made and better suited for their grandparents. Instead, many young people are turning to the Indian practice of yoga(瑜伽)to relieve stress, which was placed on the UNESCO's List in 2019.In order to promote Tai Chi, joint efforts have been made from individuals and the Chinese government in the last decades. Xi'an Jiaotong University requires students to learn Tai Chi. Wang Yunbing, a professor in the university's sports center, stressed that Tai Chi is not only good physical exercise-researchers from the American College of Rheumatology find that it can help manage several diseases but is also conned ted to ancient Chinese eivilization. Since 2014, the World Tai Chi Championships have been held every two years by the International Wushu Federation. It provides a platform for communication and learning between the Tai Chi masters and Tai Chi lovers around the globe. In January 2020, Tai Chi became an official event in the 2026 Dakar Youth Olympic Games.12. What does Zhu Xianghua say about Tai Chi in paragraph 2?A. It originated from fast Kung Fu action.B. It was born around the 1750s in a village.C. It is related to other cultural fields ofChina.D. It integrates Chinese medicine and western philosophy.13. Why do some young people choose to practice yoga instead of Tai Chi?A. They think it easier to practice yoga to keep fit.B. The elderly stop young people practicing Tai Chi.C. They consider Tai Chi is custom-built for old people.D. Yoga was included in the world culture earlier than Tai Chi.14. What is the main purpose of the last paragraph?A. To promote contemporary Chinese civilization.B. To show many efforts made to popularize Tai Chi.C. To stress the importance of Chinese Tai Chi masters.D. To advise people to practise Tai Chi to cure diseases.15.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Tai Chi Steps on the UNESCO's List.B. Tai Chi is Competing against Yoga.C. Tai Chi Has Regained populate Globally.D. Opinions Greatly Differ on Tai Chi and Yoga.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。

p.m.,but do check in advance on their site for the hours on the day you plan to go.It's worth bearing in mind that it closes for around two weeks every January,for annual maintenance (维护).Buy Tickets

discount and the bonus of skipping the ticket office line).It's an extra cost,but will grant you fast track entry through a dedicated entrance.Travel By TrainWaterloo station (served by the tube and

handwriting competition.Sara,a third﹣grade student at St.John Regional Catholic School in Frederick,Maryland,won the 2019 Nicholas Maxim award for her cursive (草书的)handwriting.She paints and draws,and sculpts clay.She can write in English and some Chinese.When she learned to write in cursive this year,Sara said,she thought it was "kind of easy".This is all despite the fact that Sara was born without hands.To write,Sara holds her pencil between her arms and then focuses on the shapes of letters,each point and curve."Writing in cursive feels like creating artwork," Sara said."I like the way the letters are formed.It's kind of art."Sara has never worn a prosthesis (artificial arms),and when she is offered help or a tool that might ease some tasks﹣﹣such as cutting paper with scissors﹣﹣she rejects it,said her mother,Cathryn Hinesley."She has this independent trend where she just knows that she can do it and she'll figure out her own way.She is beautiful and strong and mighty just the way she is,and she just lives that way.She really does.She moves through life in this way that you never really see her as having a disability because she has "I﹣can﹣do,I﹣can﹣solve﹣anything attitude"."Sara is an evidence to strong will and the human spirit." Cathryn said."Every day I am amazed at things she is capable to do and that she chooses to do.She doesn't attempt to findher way to avoid a difficulty.She finds a way to finish the task."Sara will receive her national award﹣﹣a medal﹣﹣at an award ceremony on June 13,where she will also be given a $500 prize.She is the first student from St.John's to ever receive the Nicholas Maxim award.(1)We

award.(2)Which word can be used to describe Sara?A.Brave.B.Intelligent.C.Generous.D.Strong﹣minded.(3)What is implied in Cathryn's words?A.She expects Sara to be independent.B.She is greatly proud of Sara Hinesley.C.She doesn't think Sara with disability.D.She is concerned about Sara's future.(4)In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A.Health.B.Education.C.Science.D.Entertainment.13.(8分)When salmon (大马哈鱼)and steel head don't get the cold water they need,it costs them more energy to survive.Their reproductive success can be reduced and they become more vulnerable to disease."And in the worst case,when water temperatures get too high,it can lead to death," says Joseph Bogaard,executive director of the Seattle﹣based nonprofit Save Our wild Salmon Coalition.That's what happened in the hot summer of 2015,when temperatures all over the Northwest rose quickly and about 250,000 adult sockeye salmon died in the Columbia River Basin.Many scientists refer to that year as a dress rehearsal for climate change.The clear trend is rising water temperatures and falling returns of endangered salmon.Bogaard says the water temperatures routinely rise above 68 degrees.Bogaard says that 2015 dress rehearsal scientists refer to will only get worse."Those kinds of conditions are unusual,but they're becoming more common and they're going to become more frequent as we move forward."He says the Environmental Protection Agency has a model showing dam removal and restoration of the rivers would bring the temperatures down on all but a few days a year.But after20 years of planning,no federal agencies have taken that advice.Conservation groups appealed and last October,a judge ordered the EPA to take action,mentioning the hot water as violation of the Clean Water Act.Advocates say dam removal is the only real option to keep endangered fish from going extinct.Many communities near the dams disagree and are concerned about economic impacts if they're taken down.Save Our Wild Salmon is pressing the governors and members of congress from Washington,Oregon and Idaho to find ways to take action.(1)Which of the following statement is true according to the passage?A.Lack of enough cold water will make salmon less energetic.B.High temperature can be beneficial to salmon's productive success.C.High temperature will result in salmon's immediate death.D.Lack of cold water will make salmon easier to fall ill.(2)What does the underlined expression "a dress rehearsal" mean?A.The sign indicating more fish will die due to high water temperatures.B.The final practice of a show that will be in the performance soon.C.The trend that water temperatures will rise above 68 degree.D.The condition that increasing water temperatures are unusual.(3)The obstacle to getting the dams removed is.A.that it will influence the economy near many communities.B.that there are other better ways to save the endangered fish.C.that many people near the dams refuse to accept the option.D.that the governors and congress members oppose the solution.(4)What is the best title for the passage?A.Water temperatures are increasing.B.The urge to save fish from hot water.C.Dam removal can surely save fish.D.Fish are dying out in Columbia.14.(8分)On July 1,Shanghai began a garbage﹣sorting program by law.Under the new regulations,households and companies must classify their wastes into four categories and dump them in appointed places at certain times.Those who won't obey them can lead to fines.Companies and communities that don't obey risk having their credit rating lowered.The strict practice became the talk of the city's more than 24 million residents,who criticized the program's inflexibility and confusing waste categorization.Gratefully,China's tech companies are here to help.For instance,China's biggest internet companies responded with new search features that help people identify which wastes are "wet"(used as fertilizer),"dry","toxic",or "recyclable".Not even the most environmentally conscious person can get all the answers right.Like,which bin does the newspaper you just used to pick up dog waste belong to?Simply open up a mini app on WeChat,Baidu or Alipay and enter the keyword.The tech firms will give you the answer and why.Alipay,Alibaba's electronics payment platform,claims its garbage﹣sorting mini app added one million users in just three days.The app has so far classified more than 4,000 types of rubbish.Its database is still growing,and soon it will save people from typing by using image recognition to classify trash when they snap a photo of it.Tmall Genie can already answer the question "What kind of trash is a wet wipe?" and more.If people are too busy or lazy to hit the collection schedule,well,companies are offering valet trash service at the doorstep.A third﹣party developer helped Alipay build a recycling mini app and is now collecting garbage from 8,000 apartment complexes (小区)across 11 cities.Till now,two million people have sold recyclable material through itsSome residential complexes in Shanghai began using QR codes to trace the origin of garbage,Xinhua reported.Each household is asked to attach a unique QR code to their trash bags,which will be scanned for sources and classification when they arrive at the waste

高考英语模拟试卷题号I II III IV V VI总分得分一、阅读理解(本大题共15小题,共30.0分)AGet Involved! Make a Donation!So what is rewilding?Imagine our natural homes growing instead of shrinking.Imagine species(物种)diversifying instead of declining.That's rewilding.Rewildingis ecological restoration.Rewilding offers hope for wildlife,humansand the planet.Why is rewilding important and necessary?● Our natural ecology is broken.The places where you would expect wildlife to exist have been reduced to wet deserts.The seabed has been destroyed and there have been no living creatures any more.● Our wildlife is disappearing.Many wonderful species have declined over the past century.We've lost more of our large animals than any European country.● We need keystone species.These vital species,including top predators (食肉动物),drive ecological processes.Their loss has worsened our living systems.● Nature looks after us.Good natural ecology can provide us with clean air and water,prevent flooding and store carbon.Rewilding can leave the world in a better state than it is today.What are challenges?As a long-term project,our "rewilding britain" has its challenges.Many people are not interested,because we have got used to the lack of native forests.Many farmers oppose the idea.They thought it a crazy idea to bring back predators because they would start killing farm animals.It takes time to educate them.Above all,we need money! So we need your help!Make a donation.Help us bring back living systems and restore wild nature!With your help we can…● Open up new chances for rewilding and push for change.● Develop tools to educate,influence and spread the word.Thanks for your support.1.Which of the following is the result of rewilding?______A. Species become various.B. A lot of animals disappear.C. Environments are destroyed.D. Natural disasters happen regularly.2.According to the passage,one of the challenges at present is ______ .A. people's doubtsB. a lack of volunteersC. a shortage of timeD. farmers' disagreement3.What is the main purpose of the passage?______A. To introduce a new project.B. To call on people to give money.C. To warn people of the natural ecology.D. To convince people to change their mind.BAccording to a recent study,a new genetically modified rice can prevent infections of HIV,the virus responsible for the disease AIDS.The study reports the newly-developed rice produces proteins that attach directly to the HIV virus.This process prevents the virus from mixing with human cells.The scientists say it can remove the effect of the virus and block its spreading.The Joint United Nations Program on HIV/AIDS reports that worldwide,nearly 37 million people were living with HIV in 2017.The organization says the largest number of those is in developing countries.Nearly two-thirds of HIV cases are in Africa.Now there is no cure for HIV/AIDS though there have been developments in oral drug treatments to slow the progression of the disease.The new study predicts the rice-based method will lead to long-term use of the anti-HIV treatment across the developing world.Researchers said the "groundbreaking" discovery is "realistically the only way" that anti-HIV combination treatments can be produced at a cost low enough for the developing world.They say the easiest and most cost-effective way to use the rice will be to make it into a cream to be put on the skin.The HIV-fighting proteins can then enter the body through the skin.People all over the world could grow the rice and make the cream themselves.This would prevent the cost and travel required for many patients to receive treatments and medicine.The process of changing the genetic structure of food crops has been debated for some time.Critics of genetically engineered crops believe they can harm people.The scientific team says further testing is needed to ensure that the genetic engineering process does not produce any additional chemicals that could be dangerous to people.4.What does the author intend to do in paragraph 3?______A. Stress the urgency of HIV treatments.B. Provide some data about HIV.C. Remind readers of HIV prevention.D. Introduce HIV to the public.5.In which way will the rice be used at the lowest cost?______A. By transforming it into proteins.B. By processing it into a cream.C. By adding it to an oral drug.D. By attaching it to the HIV virus.6.What can we infer about the genetic engineering process?______A. It can prevent infections of HIV.B. It still requires perfecting.C. It can produce dangerous chemicals.D. It applies to the developing world.7.From which is the text probably taken?______A. A biology textbook.B. A first aid brochure.C. A social web page.D. A health magazine.CThere is an old Chinese proverb that states "One generation plants the trees;another gets the shade," and this is how it should be with mothers and daughters.The relationship betweena mother and a daughter is sometimes confusing.The relationship can be similar to friendship.However,the mother and daughter relationship has unique characteristics that distinguish it from a friendship.These characteristics include a hierarchy (等级)of responsibilities and unconditional love,which preclude mothers and daughters from being best friends.Marina,27 years old,said,"I love spending time with my mom,but I wouldn't consider her my best friend.Best friends don't pay for your wedding.Best friends don't remind you how they carried you in their body and gave you life! Best friend:don't tell you how wise they are because they have been alive at least 20 years longer than you." This doesn't mean that the mother and daughter relationship can't be very close and satisfying.While some adult relationships are still troubled,many find them to be extremely rewarding .This generation of mothers and adult daughters has a lot in common,which increases the likelihood of shared companionship.Mothers and daughters have always shared the common experience of being homemakers,responsible for maintaining and passing on family values and traditions.Today contemporary mothers and daughters also share the experience of the workforce and technology,which may bring them even closer together.Best friends may or may not continue to be best friends,but for better or worse,the mother and daughter relationship is permanent,even if for some unfortunate reason they aren't speaking.The mother and child relationship is closer than any other.There is not an equal relationship.Daughters should not feel responsible for their mother's emotionalwell-being.It isn't that they don't care deeply about their mothers.It's just that they shouldn't be burdened with their mother's well-being.The mother and daughter relationship is a relationship that is not replaceable by any other.Mothers never stop being mothers,which includes frequently wanting to protect their daughters and often feeling responsible for their happiness.Mothers always "trump (胜过)" friends.8.What does the underlined word "preclude" in paragraph 1 probably mean?______A. differ.B. benefit.C. prevent.D. change.9.What do we know from the text?______A. The mother and daughter relationship can be replaced by a best friend.B. A mother's love brings her and her daughter a close friendship.C. .Marina has a troubled relationship with her mother.D. The mother and daughter relationship goes beyond best friends' friendship10.How does the author mainly prove his statements?______A. By listing data.B. By quoting sayings.C. By giving explanations.D. By making comparisons.11.What is the best title for the text?______A. How to Be a Good Mother and Daughter?B. Can a Mother Be a Daughter's Best Friend?C. Mothers Want to Be Daughters' FriendD. Who Is a Mother's Best Friend?DBritain faces social problems as lots of people are set to lose their jobs in technological revolution,Bank of England's chief economist warned.Andy Haldane said the so-called Fourth Industrial Revolution will make the machine replace humans to do thinking things.The dark side of the change could be a much bigger breakdown of employment than in Victorian times,with professions such as accountancy (会计)among those at risk.A report by the accountancy firm PwC last month warned that more than 7 million jobs in Britain had been lost over the next 20 years as technological change sweeps through workplaces.The majority of these are in jobs in the retail,transport and manufacturing industries.However,other traditional professional sectors could also be at serious risk.Economists treat the arrival of increasingly intelligent computers and robots as the fourth industrial revolution.The first was the shift from agricultural to urban societies;the second saw the widespread use of electricity and steel,and the third was the digital revolution when computers,the Internet and mobile phones were developed.Mr.Haldane said the hollowing-out (空洞化)experienced in the past years could be on a greater scale in the future so it is important to learn the lessons of history and ensure that people are given training to take advantage of new opportunities."Jobs were effectively taken by machines of various types,there was a hollowing-out of the jobs market,which left many people for a long period out of work and struggling to make a living," Haldane added,"That heightened social and financial tensions,and led to a rise in inequality.This is the dark side of technological revolution.""That hollowing-out is going to be potentially on a much greater scale in the future,when we have machines thinking and doing the cognitive and technical skills of humans." Mr.Haldane said professions like accountancy could be among those hardest hit by the rise of AI.But he suggested economists could escape.12.What is the dark side mentioned in the text?______A. The hollowing-out has become a major social problem.B. The technological revolution causes people to lose jobs.C. Intelligent computers and robots decrease good workers.D. Less and less people have the desire to learn accountancy13.Why are economists the lucky dog in the new technological revolution?______A. The study about economy is at a low level.B. Economists work on a traditional professional job.C. Economists have the chance to avoid technological revolution.D. There is no machine that can work as an economist.14.What should be done to deal with the serious situation?______A. To call for people to devote more to studying history.B. To warn people not to work on transport and manufacturing industries.C. To teach people to grasp the chances technological revolution brings about.D. To ask workers to develop and think as the intelligent computers and robots do.15.What attitude did Haldane have towards the future employment?______A. Worried.B. Aggressive.C. Critical.D. Positive.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Children who have developed leadership skills are sure to have a bright future.(1) Not only will they gain more self-esteem and interact more easily with their peers,they can also make an impact on their community.These qualities will continue to develop as children grow up.Here are simple techniques to develop children's leadership qualities.Discuss peer pressure.Children are often exposed to peer pressure,and worry about how others view them (2) Leadership requires being socially involved,but still honoring personal morals and standards.Discuss hypothetical(假设的)peer pressure situations and ask kids to consider how they'd behave in different situations,(3) When they're able to clearly show their thoughts,they feel more self-confident to dealwith complex problems,You can help by encouraging children to speak out and by listening seriously to their thoughts.Although many children go through rebellious stages,don't enforce silence.Instead,suggest self-expression.Teach by example.(4) Even if they don't express it aloud,children may see you as a role model.Model leadership behavior by helping others,volunteering in leadership positions and taking action in everyday life.Develop children's individual talents and encourage participation.Every child has potential for leadership skills,but not every child develops skills in the same way.(5) A child might be a talented athlete or skilled at painting and drawing.Find ways for kids to develop these skills in a group setting,which promotes teamwork and social skills.A.Encourage children to express themselves.B.Pay attention to specific interests and abilities.C.Find volunteer and community service opportunities.D.Children start benefiting from leadership skills at any ageE.Children with self-awareness have a greater ability to lead.F.Children observe the adults in their lives,and value what they see.G.Talk with your children about the importance of avoiding peer pressure.16.

Set in ruralEnglandin the early 19th century, this tale centers around the Bennet family, a family of five daughters and their two parents who are desperate to find at least one of the daughters a wealthy match. Austen’s story focuses on the tension between marrying for love instead of just for power and fame, and also the unique pressure on women to find financial security by way of marriage at the time.“Women in Science: 50 Fearless Pioneers Who Changed the WorldWomen in Science: 50 Fearless Pioneers Who Changed the World”by Rachel IgnotofskyIt is a sweetly illustrated and educational book that highlights the contributions of 50 women in the fields of technology, science, engineering and mathematics, from present day all the way back to 360 AD.“Good Night Stories for Rebel GirlsGood Night Stories for Rebel Girls”by Elena FavilliIt tells the stories of female heroes from years ago and present day.

To make their daughters financially independent.2. Whose book will attract a teen interested in science?A.

There are many different customs related to Minor Cold inChina.Eating hotpotDuringMinor Cold people should eat some hot food to benefit the body and defend against the cold weather. Winter is the best time to have hotpot and braised mutton with soy sauce. But it is important to notice that too much spicy food may cause health problems.Eating huangyacaiInTianjin, there is a custom to have huangyacai, a kind of Chinese cabbage, during Minor Cold. There are large amounts of vitamins A and B in huangyacai. As huangyacai is fresh and tender, it is fit for frying, roasting and braising.Eating glutinous rice (糯米饭)According to tradition, the Cantonese eat glutinous rice in the morning during Minor Cold. Cantonese people add some fried preserved pork, sausages and peanuts and mix them into the rice.Eating vegetable riceIn ancient times, people inNanjingtook Minor Cold quite seriously, but as time went by, the celebration of Minor Cold gradually disappeared. However, the custom of eating vegetable rice is still followed today. The rice is steamed and is unspeakably delicious. Among the ingredients (原料), aijiaohuang (a kind of green vegetable), sausages and salted duck are the specialties in Nanjing.4. What do we know about Minor Cold?A. It refers to the Winter Solstice.B.

They mix it with many other things.D. They steam it with soy sauce.7. This text may be taken from the ________ column (栏目) of a newspaper.A. travelB. cultureC. fashionD. scienceCWho is a genius? This question has greatly interested humankind for centuries.Let's state clearly: Einstein was a genius. His face is almost the international symbol for genius. But we want to go beyond one man and explore the nature of genius itself. Why is it that some people are so much more intelligent or creative than the rest of us? And who are they?In the sciences and arts, those praised as geniuses were most often white men, of European origin. Perhaps this is not a surprise. It's said that history is written by the victors, and those victors set the standards for admission to the genius club. When contributions were made by geniuses outside the club—women, or people of a different color1 or belief—they were unacknowledged and rejected by others.A study recently published bySciencefound that as young as age six, girls are less likely than boys to say that members of their gender(性别)are “really, really smart.” Even worse, the study found that girls act on that belief: Around age six they start to avoid activities said to be for children who are “really, really smart.” Can our planet afford to have any great thinkers become discouraged and give up? It doesn't take a genius to know the answer: ly not.Here's the good news. In a wired world with constant global communication, we're all positioned to see flashes of genius wherever they appear. And the more we look, the more we will see that social factors(因素)like gender, race, and class do not determine the appearance of genius. As a writer says, future geniuses come from those with “intelligence, creativity, perseverance(毅力), and simple good fortune, who are able to change the world.”8. Whatdoes the author think of victors' standards for joining the genius club?A. They're unfair.B. They're conservative.C. They're objective.D. They're strict.9. What can we infer about girls from the study inScience?A. They think themselves smart.B. They look up to great thinkers.C. They see gender differences earlier than boys.D. They are likely to be influenced by social beliefs10. Why are more geniuses known to the public?A. Improved global communication.B. Less discrimination against women.C.Acceptance of victors' concepts.D. Changes in people's social positions.11. What is the best title for the text?A. Geniuses Think AlikeB. Genius Takes Many FormsC. Genius and IntelligenceD. Genius and LuckDSimply being quiet is a growing appeal. Lots of business have appeared to meet a rising demand for quiet time, from silent weekend getaways to silent dining, silent reading parties and even silent dating. Silence can mean different things to different people. We are usually silent only with those closest to us. So there is something almost radical(不同凡响的)about the recent trend towards enjoying silence with strangers.Mariel started a regular silent reading party inDundeejust under a year ago. Readers bring their books and meet in a bar, where they read together in silence for an hour or sometimes two and then put their books away to chat and have a drink. “When the reading party starts, everything goes quiet,” says Mariel, “ It’s a little bit surreal (超现实的), especially in what is usually a noisy bar. However, there is something special about sharing the silence with others. It offers a chance to escape from reality; everyone is so busy with work and with technology being ever present. An event like thisgives people the opportunity to escape these things for a while.”Honi Ryan is an artist based inBerlinwho began hosting silent dinner back in 2006. The rules of the dinner are: no talking, no using your voice, no reading or writing, trying to make as little noise as possible, not connecting with technology, and staying for at least two hours. So far she has taken her silent dinner project toMexico,theUS,AustraliaandChina. “It’s evident that the age-old connections we make over food do not depend on the words around it. Silence creates the space for the people and places involved to fill with whatever is needed;itis quite different from our usual social behaviors.”12. Why have lots of silent businesses appeared?A. To satisfy people’s demand for silence.B. To make people get close to each other.C. To appeal to young people.D. To change people’s old way of life.13. What can we learn about Mariel’s silent reading parties?A. Readers can use their voice while reading.B. Readers can be busy with their work.C. Readers can connect with technology.D. Readers can chat and drink after reading.14. The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to .A. noiseB. spaceC. silenceD. food15. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Escape from Reality.B. Enjoying Being Quiet.C. Silent Reading Parties.D. Silent Dining Projects.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。

And now he hopes to use it for more than just his sons hope after seeing the childrens reaction to the Batmobile.Based on the number of failures he had seen in car groups, he estimated that only about one in 50 attempted constructions was actually finished and he realized what an incredible opportunity he had.Mr. Blackburn started the project at the beginning of 2018 after hearing a friend in the US was doing the same thing. It started with importing an outer shell overseas, before picking brains of a friend who had a background as a worker in a car factory to gain knowledge of how to build the car. With the help of his friend, Mr. Blackburn built the Batmobile in 18 months with the cost reaching six figures.Mr.Blackburn hoped to add a flamethrower(喷火器)onto the back of the vehicle and said he had thought about building the more recent Batman Tumbler from the series film Dark Knight. Though Mr. Blackburn encountered plenty of difficulties to get over during the construction, in September 2019, the carmade its first show at the Carnival of Flowers in Toowoomba, before being used by Blackburn’s son for his hope.“It was great. It was so good to see the kids’ and adults’ excitement at seeing the Batmobile.” Mr. Blackburn said. As a result, the car lovers hope to make the car work on the roads as soon as possible, so he can visit sick children and take them out with his son.4.

By making an outer shell for him.B. By offering him financial support.C. By sharing the knowledge of building cars.D. By telling him the background of the car factory.7. What is the car lovers’ expectation of the Batmobile?A. It will be driven soon on the roads.B. It can be displayed around the world.C. It can change the lives of sick children.D. It will appear in the next film about Batman.CThe outbreak of the novel corona virus pneumonia (NCP) has disrupted the lives and work of nearly every Chinese person. However, a new trend has been on the rise: many have turned themselves into livestreaming users orfollowers.According to Questmobile, a professional big data intelligence services provider in China, the audience for Douyin, Kuaishou and other livestreaming platforms surged to 574 million during the Spring Festival holiday, up 35 percent from 2019.Confined at home, away from their friends and loved ones, people turn to livestreaming to reach out to the world. For them livestreaming can help them share their lives and interest with a global audience, which will give them the sense of being “in the moment”. Even as viewers, they can also engage immediately with livestreamers by commenting and making suggestions.“When I comment on the livestreaming videos, I’m not simply an audience member, but also an active part of the program. That gives me a sense of engagement,” an Internet user named Wang Hao told People’s Daily.Livestreaming is not only for fun, but also a new tool for many businesses. Affected by the pandemic, many businesses had to stop their sales in physical stores. To meet their business goals and survive during these trying times, many chose to livestream to revive their businesses.Joyoung, a leading maker of small kitchen appliances, is a good example. The company not only added a number of broadcasts each day to advertise their products, but also shared the menus that were beneficial to health. “The responses to our livestreaming shows have been well beyond expectations,” Kang Li, who oversees the company’s livestreaming unit, told China daily. “It’s a natural opportunity to truly bond with our followers.”Like it or not, livestreaming is likely to go mainstream in China for both entertainment and business.8. What is the purpose of writing the second paragraph?A. To introduce some popular livestreaming platforms in China.B. To report data on the development of livestreaming in 2019.C. To show that Chinese people spend too much time on livestreaming apps.D. To prove that livestreaming are becoming increasingly popular in China.9. What does Wang Hao think of commenting on livestreaming?A. It is boring to make comments.B. It is the only way to share viewers’ lives.C. It makes people feel involved in the stream.D. It helps livestreamers improve themselves.10. What do paragraphs 5&6 mainly talk about?A. Livestreaming replaced physical stores in many areas.B. Many businesses turned to livestreaming platform for marketing.C. Livestreaming platforms faced challenges during the pandemic.D. Livestreaming platforms made changes to their services.11. How does the author feel about thefuture of livestreaming?A. Positive.B. Uncertain.C. Disappointed.D. Confused.DAs summer approaches, many kids and teenagers may find that they have more time in hand. One great way to make use of the extra time is to go on an adventure and travel. Clearly, I am not a naturally adventurous person, but I have found that takingthe risk and challenging myself to explore and travel to unfamiliar places can be a very rewarding experience.Because I am usually quite busy during the school year, most of my travels take place during the summer. Over the past few summers, I have hiked in the Grand Canyon, explored Niagara Falls, and camped out in upstateNew York. Although these experiences are varied, they are similar in that they instill (灌输) a sense of appreciation for nature and a more balanced view on life. When I hiked in the Grand Canyon, for example, I was in awe(敬畏) of the geological influences that shaped the canyon.Adventures, of course, are not limited to hiking. There are many other choices, such as camping, volunteering in a foreign environment and travelling to different countries. In my opinion, adventures are more enjoyable with family or a few friends. There is a sense of bonding that one only gets through spending time together in outdoor adventures. For example, when I was in Boy Scouts, I often went on weekend camping trips with my friends. When I came back from a Boy Scouts camping trip, I often was eager to go outside more and explore the parks and nature around me.Next fall, I will attend college. In the meantime though, I hope to make the most of my summer to explore and travel. Now, I am planning on hiking and camping out in Maine.When I visited Maine last fall, I was amazed by how beautiful it was and the tall trees and coasts that exist, and I really hope to enjoy the beauty of nature there this summer.12. We can learn from the first paragraph about the author?A. He is an adventurous person by natureB. He likes challenging himself by travellingC. He enjoys travelling with other adventurersD He needs others’ help when going on an adventure13. Which of the following can make people’s adventure more enjoyable according to the author?A. Going to different countries.B. Going to unfamiliar places.C. Travelling withtheir family or friends.D. Travelling to distant places by themselves.14. What will the author do this summer?A. Explore Niagara Falls.B. Hike in the Grand Canyons.C. Camp out in upstate New York.D. Hike and camp out in Maine.15. Who is probably the author?A. A high school student.B. A college student.C. A friendly guide.D. A warm-hearted teacher.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

It's worth bearing in mind that it closes for around two weeks every January, for annual maintenance (维护).Buy Tickets OnlineBuying tickets online will allow you to skip the initial ticket office line and also save you 10%, if you book more than 24 hours in advance. You will, however, be tying yourself into a time slot, unless you choose an Any Time Flexi ticket. If you want to avoid waiting as much as possible, your best bet is buying a Fast Track ticket, which can be bought on the day or online (again,with a 10% discount and the bonus of skipping the ticket office line). It's an extra cost, but will grant you fast track entry througha dedicated entrance.Travel By TrainWaterloo station (served by the tube and overland trains) is the closest to the London Eye, at just a five﹣minute walk away. Both Embankment and Charing Cross are fairly close, at around a 10﹣minute walk.Westminster station is a short and picturesque walk over the river where you'll also find the Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey and Big Ben.(1)If you want to visit London Eye in January, what do you have to do?A.

She can write in English and some Chinese. When she learned to write in cursive this year, Sara said,she thought it was "kind of easy". This is all despite the fact that Sara was born without hands.To write, Sara holds her pencil between her arms and then focuses on the shapes of letters,each point and curve."Writing in cursive feels like creating artwork," Sara said. "I like the way the letters are formed. It's kind of art."Sara has never worn a prosthesis (artificial arms),and when she isoffered help or a tool that might ease some tasks﹣﹣such as cutting paper with scissors﹣﹣she rejects it, said her mother, Cathryn Hinesley. "She has this independent trend where she just knows that she can do it and she'll figure out her own way. She is beautiful and strong and mighty just the way she is, and she just lives that way. She really does. She moves through life in this way that you never really see her as having a disability because she has "I﹣can﹣do, I﹣can﹣solve﹣anything attitude"."Sara is an evidence to strong will and the human spirit." Cathryn said. "Every day I am amazed at things she is capable to do and that she chooses to do. She doesn't attempt to find her way to avoid a difficulty. She finds a way to finish the task."Sara will receive her national award﹣﹣a medal﹣﹣at an award ceremony on June 13, where she will also be given a $500 prize. She is the first student from St. John's to ever receive the Nicholas Maxim award.(1)We can infer from the first sentence thatA. Sara makes every effort to win the award.B. Sara considers it easy to win the award.C.Sara doesn't take the award seriously.D. Sara is excited at winning the award.(2)Which word can be used to describe Sara?A.Brave.B. Intelligent.C. Generous.D. Strong﹣minded.(3)What is implied in Cathryn's words?A. She expects Sara to be independent.B. She is greatly proud of Sara Hinesley.C. She doesn't think Sara with disability.D. She is concerned about Sara's future.(4)In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?A. Health.B. Education.C. Science.D. Entertainment.13.(8分)When salmon (大马哈鱼) and steel head don't get the cold water they need,it costs them more energy to survive. Their reproductive success can be reduced and they become more vulnerable to disease."And in the worst case, when water temperatures get too high, it can lead to death," says Joseph Bogaard, executive director of the Seattle﹣based nonprofit Save Our wild Salmon Coalition.That's what happened in the hot summer of 2015, when temperatures all over the Northwest rose quickly and about 250,000 adult sockeye salmon died in the Columbia River Basin. Many scientists refer to that year as a dress rehearsal for climate change. The clear trend is rising water temperatures and falling returns of endangered salmon. Bogaard says the water temperatures routinely rise above 68 degrees.Bogaard says that 2015 dress rehearsal scientists refer to will only get worse."Those kinds of conditions are unusual,but they're becoming more common and they're going to become more frequent as we move forward."He says the Environmental Protection Agency has a model showing dam removal and restoration of the rivers would bring the temperatures down on all but a few days a year. But after20 years of planning, no federal agencies have taken that advice. Conservation groups appealed and last October, a judge ordered the EPA to take action, mentioning the hot water as violation of the Clean Water Act.Advocates say dam removal is the only real option to keep endangered fish from going extinct.Many communities near the dams disagree and are concerned about economic impacts if they're taken down.Save Our Wild Salmon is pressing the governors and members of congressfrom Washington, Oregon and Idaho to find ways to take action.(1)Which of the following statement is true according to the passage?A. Lack of enough cold water will make salmon less energetic.B. High temperature can be beneficial to salmon's productive success.C. High temperature will result in salmon's immediate death.D. Lack of cold water will make salmon easier to fall ill.(2)What does the underlined expression "a dress rehearsal" mean?A. The sign indicating more fish will die due to high water temperatures.B. The final practice of a show that will be in the performance soon.C. The trend that water temperatures will rise above 68 degree.D. The condition that increasing water temperatures are unusual.(3)The obstacle to getting the dams removed is .A. that it will influence the economy near many communities.B. that there are other better ways to save the endangered fish.C. that many people near the dams refuse to accept the option.D. that the governors and congress members oppose the solution.(4)What is the best title for the passage?A. Water temperatures are increasing.B. The urge to save fish from hot water.C. Dam removal can surely save fish.D. Fish are dying out in Columbia.14.(8分)On July 1,Shanghai began a garbage﹣sorting program by law. Under the new regulations, households and companies must classify their wastes into four categories and dump them in appointed places at certain times. Those who won't obey them can lead to fines. Companies and communities that don't obey risk having their credit rating lowered.The strict practice became the talk of the city's more than 24 million residents,who criticized the program's inflexibility and confusing waste categorization. Gratefully, China's tech companies are here to help.For instance, China's biggest internet companies responded with new search features that help people identify which wastes are "wet"(used as fertilizer),"dry", "toxic", or "recyclable". Not even the most environmentally conscious person can get all the answers right. Like,which bin does the newspaper you just used to pick up dog waste belong to? Simply open up a mini app on WeChat,Baidu or Alipay and enter the keyword. The tech firms will give you the answer and why.Alipay,Alibaba's electronics payment platform,claims its garbage﹣sorting mini app added one million users in just three days. The app has so far classified more than 4,000 types of rubbish.Its database is still growing, and soon it will save people from typing by using image recognition to classify trash when they snap a photo of it. Tmall Genie can already answer the question "What kind of trash is a wet wipe?" and more.If people are too busy or lazy to hit the collection schedule, well,companies are offering valet trash service at the doorstep. A third﹣party developer helped Alipay build a recycling mini app and is now collecting garbage from 8,000 apartment complexes (小区) across 11 cities. Till now,two million people have sold recyclable material through its platform.Some residential complexes in Shanghai began using QR codes to trace the origin of garbage,Xinhua reported.Each household is asked to attach a unique QR code to their trash bags, which will be scanned for sources and classification when they arrive at the waste management station. This way,regulators in the region know exactly which family has produced the trash ﹣although the city's current garbage regulations do not require real﹣name tracking ﹣ and those who correctly categorized receive a small reward.(1)If a company doesn't dump rubbish in the appointed places, itA.will receive a heavy fine.B. will not receive are ward.C. it may face a lower evaluation.D. it may be demanded to shut down.(2)What can we learn from the passage?A. We can use image recognition to sort rubbish on Alipay very easily.B. Residents in Shanghai are required to carry on rubbish sorting properly.C. Tmall Genie is trying to develop an app to classify rubbish properly.D.An environmentally conscious person can sort his wastes very easily.(3)How canregulators know the source of the the trash?A. By scanning a unique QR code on the trash bags.B. By using real﹣name tracking the specific household.C. By offeringvalet trash service at the doorstep.D. By asking a third﹣party developer for help.(4)What is the main idea of the passage?A.China's tech companies help classify and trace rubbish.B.China's war on rubbish is widely criticized by residents.C.Alibaba helps residents classify rubbish on its platform.D.Some complexes use QR codes to trace the origin of rubbish.第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 2 分,满分 10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.15.(10分)Use and Improve Your AbilitiesEach of us has special skills and abilities to contribute to the world.(1)Whether you are a number whiz(奇才),or you do embroidery (刺绣) or other things, there are ways to put your skills to use and improve them along the way!Recognize your skills.

Even though the science has been around for a while,Browne explains that he's had a difficult time getting companies to listen.When he asked well-known clothing companies to support Benign by Design-his research project that seeks to get clothes that have a bad effect on humans and the environment out of the market,Browne didn't get a satisfying answer.Only one women's clothing company,Eileen Fisher,offered Browne funding.8.What has happened during the past five years?______A. Fabric has become much stronger.B. Plastic pollution has been less serious.C. Many plastic bottles have been reused.D. Microfibers have been greatly improved.9.What does Browne think of washing synthetic clothes?______A. It is adding microfibers to the clothes.B. It is worsening environmental problems.C. It is making synthetic clothes last longer.D. It is doing great damage to washing machines.10.What can be inferred about Browne's Benign by Design research project?______A. It has achieved great success.B. It hasn't got anything done.C. It is known to very few people.D. It is facing some difficulties.11.What's the best title for the text?______A. It's important to learn to recycleB. It's never easy to solve pollution problemsC. Recycled plastic clothing:solution or pollution?D. Are human beings moving forward or backward?DChina plans to launch 156 small satellites by 2025 to provide Internet services in low signal areas and places with adverse natural environment,according to China Aerospace Science and Industry Corporation (CASIC).Due to environmental conditions of deserts,mountains and seas,half of the world's population has no access to the Internet,and the information deficiency hampers local development.It will be China's first broadband Internet access system with small satellites hovering in low orbit,which will also help meet the needs of commercial space development.The project,named Hongyun,plans to send the first satellite by 2019,and launch four more by 2020.By the end of 2025,CASIC plans to have all of the 156 satellites in operation.The Hongyun Proiect,which focuses on communication,remote sensing and navigation,can offer communication and Internet services for China and less-developed 3 countries with reduced latency.Meanwhile,the project can also benefit emergency communication,sensor data collection and remote control of unmanned equipment.Currently,international maritime satellites are widely used in communications in mountainous areas and airplanes,but those satellites,36,000 kilometers above the Earth,have time and signal delay as well as high cost for providing services.The small satellites sent by the Hongyun Project will hover in low orbits only hundreds of kilometers to 1,000 kilometers above the Earth,and thus could improve the Internet access.However,the low orbit satellites may face challenges in power supply,as they need more energy to reduce the influence of air-resistance compared to high orbit satellites.Experiments are needed to determine whether solar energy alone is enough.12.According to the passage,______ .A. 156satellites will be launched by the Hongyun Project by 2020B. international maritime satellites can cause signal delayC. The Hongyun Project may not encourage commercial space developmentD. low orbit satellites are currently used widely in communications in mountainous areas13.The underlined word "hampers" in Paragraph 2 probably refers to ______ .A. acceleratesB. determinesC. preventsD. promotes14.Which of the following is not included in the Hongyun Project?______A. Communication and Navigation.B. Remote sensing.C. Data collection.D. Solar energy.15.Low orbit satellites need more energy in order to ______ .A. provide more accurate dataB. improve the Internet accessC. reduce the effect of air-resistanceD. face more challenges二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Many people believe that there is some truth in the saying Laughter is the best medicine. (1) Laughter helps relieve pain, strengthen the immune system and reduce stress. Laughter stimulates (激发) hormones which make us feel happy. Laughter also increases the flow of blood throughout the body and has benefits which are similar to the ones you get by doing exercise.(2) Children exposed to funny films and cartoons before major medical procedures are able to cope better with pain and anxiety. (3) . These are professional clowns who are sent to hospitals and wards to entertain and distract sick children.Laughter therapy has become very popular in recent years and as a result, more and more laughter clubs are starting to open up in cities and towns all over the world. At a laughter session, a trained therapist instructs the group to perform a series of exercises which are designed to produce laughter. (4) And it takes them some time to get rid of their inhibitions (心理抑制). They might even start off with fake laughter, but this doesn't matter because our bodies can't tell the difference, and the results are the same. Moreover, laughter is contagious(传染的). (5)So next time you feel ill, stressed out or depressed, try watching a funny film or try remembering an amusing incident in your life. You will soon feel better.A. If one person starts giggling, it is unavoidable that everyone else will be drawn in.B. Laughter helps you focus.C. This finding has led to so-called clown doctors.D. In fact, research done by scientists has shown that laughter has a lot of health benefits.E. Laughter makes the world a better and more colorful place.F. Some people may find the idea embarrassing at first.G. Using laughter therapy in children's hospitals has proven to be invaluable.16. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G17. A. A B. B C. C D.

2020-2021学年江西上饶中学高三英语模拟试题及答案解析
2020-2021学年江西上饶中学高三英语模拟试题及答案解析第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项ATheatre reflects the values of the civilization out of which it grows. The following are the types of theatre performances an ancient Roman might have witnessed then.Fescennine VerseFescennine Verse was a pioneer of Roman comedy. Ironic and improvisational(即兴的), it was used mainly at festivals or weddings, and as invective. With early native Italian funny dialogues in Latin verse, it was thought to have combined with a tradition of performances by masked dancers and musicians from Etruria.Fabula AtellanaFabula Atellana relied on common characters, masks, direct humor, and simple plots. They were performed by actors improvising. Fabula Atellana came from the Oscan city of Atella. There were 4 main types of characters: the braggart, the greedy blockhead, the clever hunchback and the stupid old man, like modern Punch and Judy shows.Fabula TogataNamed for the clothing symbolic of the Roman people Fabula Togata had various subtypes. One was the Fabula Tabernaria, named for the tavern(酒馆)where the comedy’s preferred characters, lowlifes, might be found. One describing more middle-class types, and continuing the Roman clothing theme, was the Fabula Trabeata.Fabula PraetextaFabula Praetexta is the name for Roman tragedies on Roman themes, Roman history or current politics. Fabula Praetexta was less popular than tragedies on Greek themes. During the Golden Age of drama in the Middle Republic, there were four great Roman writers of tragedy, Naevius, Ennius, Pacuvius, and Accius. Of their surviving tragedies, 90 titles remain.All the performances above began as a translation of Greek forms, even to the extent of their being performed in Greek costume.1.Where might an ancient Roman witness Fescennine Verse?A.At a party.B.At a funeral.C.At a wedding.D.At a concert.2.Which type of performance describes the middle-class life?A.Fabula Atellana.B.Fabula Tabernaria.C.Fabula Trabeata.D.Fabula Praetexta.3.What do the listed types of performances have in common?A.They copy Latin dramas.B.They take on Greek forms.C.They reflect Roman themes.D.They refer to Italian stories.BMedha Gupta sometimes felt worried about making the 20-minute walk from the corner where the school bus dropped her off to her home in Herndon -especially during the colder months in winter.Her mother, Divya Gupta had a suggestion: write an app. Shewas half-kidding,but Medha didn't take the challenge lightly. So she set out to work.The result was Safe Travel, an app designed by Medha to help walkers feel more secure when travelling alone. Using the iPhone, a person can program it to send a warning to someone he or she trusts if he or she fails to arrive at a destination within a certain time.It was the first iOS app that Medha had created. While she didn't think much would come from the project, her effort caught the eye of judges for the annual Congressional App. Challenge, who selected her as the winner for Virginia's 10th District.The App Challenge is designed to encourage students to consider careers in science, technology, engineering, and math by experimenting with coding and computer science. Winning students are invited lo attend a reception on Capitol Hill in April and also received $250 in Amazon Web Service credits.Medha said it took her about 40 hours to design, program and test the app. As for her next app? Medha's not certain. She temporarily has her app-development ambitionson holdbecause she's busy teaching herself artificial intelligence to help deal with improper words on Facebook. Yes,she knows that there are teams of engineers probably doing the same thing. But she figures it can't hurt her own part, too.“If we see something wrong with the world, we should do something about it,” she said. “After all, the only one stopping us from doing something is ourselves. ”4. Why did Medha Gupta feel worried?A. It took a long time to walk home.B. It was difficult to write an app.C. It was colder than ever in winter.D. It was unsafe to walk home alone.5. What is Medha's attitude to her mother's challenge?A. Serious.B. Casual.C. Uncertain.D. Indifferent.6. What does the underlined phrase “on hold” in Paragraph 6 mean?A. Developed.B. Delayed.C. Achieved.D. Satisfied.7. What's the main idea of the text?A. Medha signed up for the App Challenge.B. Medha designed Safe Travel successfully.C. An app Safe Travel guides walkers home.D. The App Challenge directs students to choose careers.CIf you have ever tried to catch a resting butterfly, you know it is surprisingly difficult. A new study helps explain why.Previous research had suggested that a butterfly's overhead wing clap forces the insect forward. Researchers thought the wing clap likely formed a pocket of air that shoots out like a jet, but no one had tested that until now.To understand their flight, they placed six butterflies one at a time inside a wind tunnel which was filled with smoke and then used a laser to light up the smoke just behind the butterfly. Four high-speed cameras were placed in the tunnel to take photos of the movement of the butterfly and the-smoke as the butterfly was taking off. This let the researchers create a 3D picture of that air movement as the insect flapped its wings.They observed a total of 25 takeoffs by six butterflies. Each included up to three wing beats after takeoff.The butterflies proved more likely to clap their wings together during the first few wing beats than later in flight.The photos show that forces created by the wings give rise to a flight path. The butterflies rise as their wings move down and shoot forward as their wings move up. A wing clap on takeoff, paired with a quick tum, allowed the butterflies to fly away quickly. They also noticed the wings formed an air pocket just before clapping and that the wings' flexibility and this pocket improved the jet force created by the clap.“The study is exciting,” says Ayodeji Bode-Oke, a mechanical engineer in Charlottesville. That means “we have solved the longtime puzzle about how butterflies fly, and it proves nothing is impossible on the road of scientific research. I can't wait to learn about how the study might inform designs for small aerial vehicles.”8. Why was laser used in the experiment?A. To frighten the butterflies into lying.B. To help researchers observe the butterflies.C. To help take clear photos of air movement.D. To guide the butterflies through the smoke.9.

In the above quote, William suggests that the process of gardening mirrors human life. Depending on what we “plant” in our lives, we bloom (生长茂盛) or don’t. Before you start to work in your garden, it’s necessary to have a vision for it. Thinking of what youwant to grow in your garden and how to lay it out is a good first step in making your vision a fruitful reality. In life, you should consider what you want to create and what you want to achieve, because your mind-garden is like the white paper and the possibilities are endless. Regardless of what you choose to plant, poor soil isn’t suitable for growth. This is why gardeners take the time and energy to upgrade the soil before planting. So, creating the right soil is important to the realization of your goals and dreams. Fortunately, there are countless ways to make your personal bedrock better. Getting an education is one of the most effective ways, which can help you enrich your life’s soil.You don’t have to be an enthusiastic gardener to understand the meaning of “You reap(收获) what you sow.” When a gardener wants tomatoes, they just need to plant tomato seeds. It’s a very clear act that produces an expected result. Each of us has the power to decide which “life seeds” to plant. For example, if you plant ill seeds, it's likely that you’ll experience pain in return. Contrarily, if you plant seeds of kindness and understanding, yourlife will bloom with happiness and love.A gardener’s trulyarduouswork begins after the seeds are in the ground because a garden requires a lot of care and attention. Regular watering and weeding are required for a healthy garden. So, to ensure your dreams take root, you should be devoted, aware, and present. After countless hours and energy spent, the crops have grown well and are finally ready to be harvested.12. What is important before gardeners break ground in their gardens?A.

This passage is most probably from ______________.A. a travel magazineB. a geography textbookC. an education reportD. an agency's websiteBKyle Cassidy and three other members of the Annenberg Running Group were stretching on the grounds of the University of Pennsylvania, waiting for a few slow members to start. The Penn colleagues and other community members meet three days a week for a roughly 30-minute jog and an occasional lecture. It’s not your normal exercise chatter—during some runs, one of them delivers a talk; the topics range from the brain to Bitcoin(比特币).But on this day last January, it would not be their normal run. The first sign was the man who ran past them very fast. “Probably running a 7:15 pace (per mile),” Cassidy thought admiringly.Cassidy discovered why the man was so fast at running when another man ran by, yelling,“Help! He took my phone!”Hearing that, the group did what running clubs do: They ran, chasing the suspect down the streets until he quickly hid in a construction site. The runners split up. Cassidy ran around to the far side of the site to cut the thief off while the others wandered the neighborhood hoping he had abandoned the stolen phone in a backyard.No luck. Then they asked the residents whether they'd seen the guy. When they knocked on the door of one house, they were in for a surprise. They didn’t know the thief had already come out of the construction site and was hiding behind a bush by that very house. As the owner opened the door, the suspect suddenly rushed out from behind the bush and right into the arms of the campus police, who had joined the chase shortly behind the runners.The members of this running group are not passionate(狂热的) runners. But they do understand the benefit of a little exercise. “Running is typically a useless sport where you turn fat cells into heat,” Cassidy said. “But occasionally it can be useful, and here was one of those opportunities.”24. What does the running group do at times while exercising?A. Share ideas.B. Talk nonsense.C. Help search for lost things.D. Play with their smartphones.25. How did Cassidy feel right after the thief ran past him?A Confused B. Frightened C Motivated D. Impressed26. What does the underlined phrase “split up” refer to?A. gave up.B. stayed up.C. got separated.D. ran away.27. What message can we get from the story?A. It's very important to keep fit.B. Exercising can be socially beneficial.C. Whatever you do, you should do your best.D. Teamwork is more important than individual skills.CImagine that you walk down the street and are suddenly hit by an object coming from a high-rise building. Who should be held responsible if you are injured? Have you ever received calls or texts from businesses after accessing certain apps? How can you protect your personalinformation? These issues will be addressed in the civil code(民法典).This year, China's first draft civil code was under review at the annual session of the National People's Congress(NPC).The civil code is a collection of laws designed to cover individual rights. Through the code, China hopes to “establish a country under the rule of law with better protection for civil rights", reported Xinhua.Considered “an encyclopedia(百科全书) on social life”, the civil code, with 1, 260 articles (条), consists of general provisions(总则) and six sections on property, contracts, personality rights, marriage and family, inheritance, and torts(侵权责任). As China Daily noted, the adoption of China's civil code is essential to comprehensive advancement of the rule of law and will offer stronger protection of people's fundamental interests and public well-being.The compilation(编写) of personality rights in a separate volume is “a major development and innovation in the civil code”, Shi Jiayou, professor at Renmin University, said in an interview with CGTN. “It will help deepen the legal protection of personal dignity and individual rights.”The personality rights section covers general provisions, as well as the rights to life, body, health, name, image, reputation and honor. In addition, it provides data protection provisions relating to data leaks from digital platforms.China's first civil code came after years of hard work. In 1954, 1962, 1979 and 2001, China made separate attempts to draft a civil code. Since 2015 China has been working on the current draft. There are two steps needed to codify(编写)the laws. The first is to compile the general provisions of civil law, and the second is to integrate(融合) separate, existing civil laws into the code.The adoption of the civil code represents a milestone for both the protection of human rights and the promotion of rule of law in China, noted CGTN.28. Why does the author ask questions in the first paragraph?A. To test readers' knowledge of the civil code.B. To remind readers to protect themselvesC. To get readers interested in the topic.D. To offer solutions to readers in these situations.29. What does the article tell us about the civil code?A. It consists of over 2,000 articles.B. It is like an encyclopedia of Chinese law.C. It covers eight sections related to social life.D. It aims to better protect public interests and well-being.30. According to Shi Jiayou, “a major development” in the civil code is particularly shown in the compilation of ____________.A. personality rightsB. marriage and familyC. inheritanceD. torts31. What is the best tittle for the text?A. A milestone for human rights in China.B. China's difficulty in drafting a civil code.C. Lessons gained from codifying civil laws.D. The history and process of codifying civil code.DEvery year around this time, Girl Scouts(女童军) wear their uniforms and set up tables at supermarkets and on sidewalks to sell boxes of cookies in the US. According to the Girl Scouts of America, approximately 200 million boxes of cookies are sold each year. Girl Scouts depend on the cookie program to fund life-changing, girl-led programs and educational opportunities.However, during the outbreak of COVID-19, millions of dollars worth of cookies are going unsold. Amanda Kopelman, 16, came up with an idea and discussed it with the members of her Plantation Troop 10442. They are donating unsold cookies to medical professionals and first responders(急救员)."Having been a Girl Scout for the past 12 years and the top cookie seller for the past seven years, it truly breaks my heart when I hear that the cookie sales of my Girl Scout sisters across the nation have been cut short.” Kopelman said. She said knowing everyone is going through similar things, and having an international group of girls to talk to have made her time spent at home productive and pleasant. “The best thing about staying home under these conditions is that I've truly become more tech-savvy (精通技术的) and have more time to connect with many of my Girl Scout friends,”she said.Not only are they studying and working on virtual patches(电子贴布) and earning badges(徽章), but they are also staying connected. Madelyn Streisfeld, 15, said that while she misses thehands-on activities and face-to-face communication scouting provides, she recognizes that having to stay home has its benefits. “We’ve been able to spend a lot more time with each other online.” she said. They also participate in a fitness program and game nights together "Having group video chats helps keep us connected during this scary time, this(donation) project especially has been the highlight of my time at home.”she said.“Troop 10442 is a wonderful example of true Girl Scout sisterhood,” said Girl Scouts of Southeast Florida CEO Lisa Johnson. “Their think-outside-the-(cookie)-box donation is taking the leadership skills they have learned throughout their many years of Girl Scouts and putting them into action to make a difference during this difficult time.”32. What do we know about Girl Scouts from the first two paragraphs?A. They are asked to wear uniforms to school.B. They have raised about 200 million dollars.C. They have been unable to sell their cookies due to COVID-19.D. They have stopped funding many educational programs.33. What is Plantation Troop 10442 doing in this special situation?A. They are donating unsold cookies to some people.B. They are sending people to help medical workers.C. They are trying to sell their cookies online.D. They are cutting down on production of cookies.34. What does Streisfeld consider a benefit of staying home?A. Becoming better at using technology.B. Earning badges through working onlineC. Playing games via group video chats at night.D. Spending more social time online with her friends35. What did Johnson think of Plantation Troop 10442's action?A. They show leadership shortcomings of Girl Scouts.B. They put too much effort into the cookie program.C. They need to be more realistic when doing things.D.
