But that first moon landing might not have been such a(n) __31__ moment if it weren’t for NASA’s clever PR (Public Relations) team.Richard Jurek is a marketing __32__ and co-author of the book marketing the Moon: The Selling of the Apollo Lunar Program. He says NASA’s move to real-time, open communication made the 1969 Apollo 11 landing “the first positive viral event that __33__ the world’s attention.”Before NASA was established in 1958, rockets were the military’s territory; that secretiveness carried over into the space agency’s early days. At first, NASA followed a “fire in the tail” rule, only ___34___ a rocket’s launch when it was successfully in the air. But as the agency evolved, it started announcing more details about the Apollo program. It ___35___its astronauts, talked openly about mission goals and challenges, and shared launch times so people could watch. “If it had been run like it was under the military,” Jurek says, “we would not have had that sense of drama, that sense of involvement, that sense of wonder, that ___36___.” Instead, all the PR and press promotion in the years ahead of Apollo 11 brought the human spaceflight program into people’s living rooms and imaginations.As the drama neared its peak, NASA’s PR officials pushed for live TV broadcasts of the first humans to walk on the moon. Not everyone thought it was a good idea. The technology for live lunar broadcasts, and cameras small enough to keep the cargo ___37___, didn’t exist at the point. Some engineers worried that developing that equipment would ___38___ from efforts to achieve the landing itself. But NASA’s communications team argued that telling the story was as vital as the ___39___ itself. Live TV would bring the American people -- and international viewers -- along for the ride.Come landing day, which ___40___ fell on a Sunday, more than half a billion people worldwide crowded around TVs and radios for the historic moment. “We were able to come together and do something that was exciting and interesting and brought the world together,” says David Meerman Scott, marketing strategist and co-author of Marketing the Moon. “I don’t know that we’ve done anything like that since.”Ⅱ. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Ancient creatures likely evolved the stress response to better escape from hunters.

According to a 2018 American Psychological Association survey of more than 3,000 people, the top ___41___ are work, money, the economy and health.Although everyone faces stress, people react to it ___42___. “There’s the situation, how we ___43___ the situation, and then our skills at handling the situation,” says psychologist William Lovallo of the University of Oklahoma. ____44____ experiences help us assess appropriate responses, so most people improve with age. “A high school student or a college student might not have those ___45___ skills and might let a situation get out of hand,” he adds.Most ___46___have normal stress responses, regulated to give the right burst of hormones（激素）and bodily changes for a particular stressor. But others always over-or under-react, which may be a warning sign for physical or mental ___47___. To study this, scientists often monitor cortisol（皮质醇）or heart rate variations throughout the day and during trying tasks.____48___, the intensity of these responses seems to be set from a young age. Studies have shown that people who experienced childhood hardships -- including physical punishment and a(n) ___49___ home -- are more likely to have quiet stress reactions as adults. For example, as part of a study published in 2012, Lovallo exposed 354 participants to moderate stress. People who self-reported early-life ___50___ actually had lower heart rates and cortisol levels than other participants. While the study tasks were not important, the individuals’ under-reactions suggest their stress response may also have trouble ___51___ when it really matters. It can be just as ___52___ as an extreme response. Other research has found links between childhood conflict, abnormally low adult stress and substance misuse. Though the biology is not fully understood, it’s suggested that early - life neglect or suffering ___53___ the body’s stress pathways.Even before birth, a child can ___54___ parental stress.

House and tree have been here, side by side, for well over a century. No one really knows how old the tree is, but it was already there when builders started on the house at the beginning of the 1900s.It was still rather young and flexible back then, so it easily welcomed the new structure into its path. it bent and adjusted itself to make room, and to find the space to grow big and strong and wise. Which means that some hundred years later, the solid, strong branches of the tree reach around two full sides of my home. It’s covered in mass（苔藓）, which is, in turn, crawling with all sorts of inseets. I have never seen the insects, by the way, I just know that they’re there because of all the birds trying to pick them out. They are always hopping around, looking for this and that and singing songs.I feel like I have become part of the ecosystem. When I’m eating breakfast or making dinner in the kitchen, I can look out and see a bird hopping around skillfully, gathering its own meal while I tend to mine. When I’m sitting in the living room, reading or drinking tea, I can suddenly find myself face to face with another bird. We’ll be staring at each other and, after some time, decide we can both carry on with our business. Living side by side. Even as I writethis -- the large windows open to a lovely, soft evening -- a white feather comes floating down by my side. Probably from one of the resident pigeons.As I don’t have the luxury of a garden, this tree makes me fell connected to the outdoors. Such an ancient tree, a tree that is itself home to many other creatures -- that feels different. It is as if it has adopted me and made me a part of its world, without ever asking for something in return.

Like infectious diseases, ideas in the academic world are spreadable. But way some travel far and wide while equally good ones remain in relative insignificance has been a mystery. Now a team of computer scientists has used an epidemiological model to imitate how ideas move from one academic institution to another. The model showed that ideas originating at famous institutions caused bigger “ epidemicstha”n equally good ideas from less well -known places, explains Allison Morgan, a computer scientist at the University of Colorado Boulder and lead author of the new study. “ This implies that where an idea is born shapes how far it spreads, holding the quality of the idea constant. says senior author Aaron Clauset, also at Boulder.Not only is this unfair -- “ it reveals a big weakness in how we ' re dosianygs sSciimenocne ,DeDeo, a professor of social and decision sciences at Carnegie Mellon University, who was not involved in the study. There are many highly trained people with good ideas who do not end up at top institutions. “ They are producing good ideas, and we know those ideas are getting lost, D”eDeo says. “ Our science, our scholarship, is not as good because of this.The Colorado researchers analyzed an existing data set of computer science department hires in North America, as well as a database of publications by these hires. First they looked at how five big ideas in computer science spread to new institutions. They found that hiring a new member accounted for this movement a little more than a third of the time -- and in 81 percent of those cases, transfers took place from higher- to lower -status universities. Then the team imitated the broadcasting of ideas using an infectious disease model and found that the size of an idea “ epidemic (a”s measured by the number of institutions that published studies on an idea after it originated) depended on the status of the originating institution. The findings were published online last October in EPJ Data Science.The researchers mo'del suggests that there “ may be a number of quite good ideas thatoriginate in the middle of the pack, in terms of universities, Clauset says. DeDeo a”grees. There is a lot of good work coming out of less famous places, he says: “ You can learn a huge amount from it, and you can learn things that other people don ' t know because they ' re not even paying attention. ”63.The word “ this in” paragraph 2 refers to the fact that ________ .A. the time when good ideas were born decides how far they may spreadB.the quality of the original ideas tends to be not easy to maintainC.good ideas from less important institutions lack influenceD.scholars in insignificant institutions consider their ideas valueless64.The case of some hires in paragraph 3 is used to indicate _________ .A. the statistics the epidemological model provides for the researchersB.why the originating institutions transfer their new findingsC.how they carry the ideas from lower - to higher - status institutionsD. the way the movements of some new ideas happen and their effects65.Researchers such as Clauset are very much concerned about __________ .A. losing quite a number of great and creative thoughtsB.missing the opportunities of getting more well -knownC.misusing the epidemiological model in scientific research areasD.having difficulty in finding more proper science department hires66.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Infectious DiseasesB. Original IdeasC. Idea EpidemicD. Epidemiological ModelSection CDirections: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need. A. So we try to push back the tide and keep up by multi - tasking.B.No wonder people say they ' re too busy to see friends, exercise or sleep.C.Would it surprise you to hear that we have more leisure time today than ever?D. How can we learn to spend time in a way that ' s more likely to lead to happiness andsuccess?E.It ' s something that economist have been puzzling over and they ' ve identified several reasons.F.Then you will have fewer empty experiences and far ore that are worthy of your precious time.The Fullness of TimeMost of us think we have very little time, but the truth is we actually have a lot - on average, five hours 49 minutes each day, which means we typically have somewhere between 36 and 40 hours available to be spent every week however we want. So why don - ric'h? t we feel time________ 67 _______One is that we earn more, so time feels more expensive. Then there ' s the way we ' ve com see busyness as a status symbol: important people are busy, so we want to be busy, too. Add to that the flood of incoming emails and texts, along with the endless ocean of possibilities, and it to see where time goes.A second factor is the comparison we make between what we can do and what others aredoing, making us anxious. ______ 68 _______ This fools us into thinking we ' re being more productive with our work time, so we try to do it with our leisure time, too. When we ' re p with out kids, we check Facebook. When we ' re hanging out with one group of friends, we postpictures to show another. This is something sociologists call ‘ polluted time '.We' re also addicted to our devices. In 2007, the amount of leisure time we spent on devices like smart -phones could be measured in minutes. Now, we spend on average 3.5 hours a day online. 69You might be wondering why you need help deciding how to spend your free time -- after all you know the sort of things you enjoy, so what could be so difficult? Psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi has a surprising opinion on it. “ The popular assumption is that no skills are involved in enjoying free time, anybody can do it. Yet the evidence suggests the opposite; free time is more difficult to enjoy than work. Worryingly, sc”ientists have found that people are often no happier after a holiday than if they ' d never taken one. ________ 70 _______ The question stillremains unsettled.Ⅱ.Summary Writing Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Cryptocurrency (加密货币)Making payments online is very easy these days if you have a credit card or a bank card that used a payment network. Sending money online to a friend, you have to use a payment service like Google Pay or PayPal, or make a bank transfer. However, there is usually a significant delay before the receiver can use the money, and transfers can have sizeable fees.In 2008, a group of people published a paper describing a process that would use crypto -graph (密码学) to create a secure electronic cash system, known as a cryptocurrency. Person - to - person payments could be made online using a shared network of computers instead of a bank or other financial organization. Each transaction could happen very quickly. The shared network of computers would also serve as the means to confirm those transactions safely. Getting rid of the need for a centralized banking system would open up the possibility for anyone to become part of the digital economy.Today, there are over a thousand different cryptocurrencies. Most are still trying to be valid global payment systems like Bitcoin. They are held back by problems affecting the entire cryptocurrency industry. One issue is weak security on cryptocurrency websites where users either store their electronic cash. The websites are struggling to protect their users from such thefts.Another problem is the large number of false cryptocurrencies advertised on the Internet. The advertisements invite Internet users to visit websites offering new cryptocurrencies. Many visitors are persuaded to buy their cryptocurrencies using actual money. Later, the websites disappear along with the victims money'. In response to this problem, companies like Facebook and Google are limiting cryptocurrency advertising on their websites.Ⅱ. Translation Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.72.我真的应该为自己失礼的行为向你道歉。

" Well, all that fun stuff that satellites help beam down to us﹣mobile games, Instagram, cat videos﹣could be shut down by space waste． Lots of old junk floating around upthere, plus new satellites added each year, means more and more high﹣speed collisions （碰撞）． And when chunks of junk crash into one another, they break apart into millions of pieces, quickly building up speed and turning into fast﹣moving objects, which are dangerous to operational satellites as well as astronauts working on the International Space Station．________ Think about that for a minute． When the last satellites finally become disused, GPS, cell phones, and the Internet will no longer function．________ Here's the best part﹣while reentering Earth's atmosphere, the pieces of junk would burn up all at once, creating a light show similar to hundreds of shooting stars falling in the night sky． A spectacle indeed!To get ready for such an amazing effort, Space Waste Lab has been traveling to major cities across Europe and enlightening the public on the problem of the junk in space． ________ In October 2018, his team launched Space Waste Lab Performance, an outdoor art exhibition that shows the location of each piece of space trash using large lasers that make each debris look a bit like a star wandering slowly and silently over the sky, allowing viewers to wave and say, "Hallo, space trash!"（1）The word "obsolete" （paragraph 2）is closest in meaning to "________"．A accessibleB profitableC floatingD outdated．（2）According to the passage， which sentence best replaces the question mark in thediagram？________A Working satellites can be damaged and astronauts can be hurt．B Satellites can help people track the weather and find new locations．C There is more junk floating in space each year as new satellites are added．D The Space Waste Lab Performance can show people where satellites are located．．（3）Which of the following best supports the idea that space waste should be dealt with very soon？________A Sentences ①B Sentence ②C Sentence ③D Sentence ④．（4）Which of the following might be the best title of the passage？________A Space Junk Harms Digital SystemsB Artists' Proposal to Save SpaceC A New Glimpse into Outer SpaceD Test of Waste Collection Nets．Section CDirections： Read the passage carefully.

A． If the intellectual worth of a college degree can be accurately measured， more people will seek higher education﹣and come out better thinkers．B． Two years before， a nationwide study of college graduates had shown that more than a third had made no significant gains in such mental abilities during their school years．C． Despite the success of the experiment， the actual results are frustrating， and mostly confirm earlier studies．D． Many can't reason clearly or perform competently in analyzing complex， non﹣technical problems．E． Yet like many college teachers in the U．S．， the professors remain doubtful that their work as educators can be measured by a "learning outcome" such as a graduate's ability to investigate and reason．F． It is important to identify the common goals of general higher education and translate them into the design of the learning outcomes assessment．How Colleges Can Measure Up in Teaching "Critical Thinking"After becoming president of Purdue University in 2013， Mitch Daniels asked the teachingstaff to prove that their students have actually achieved one of higher education's most important goals： critical thinking skills．（1）________ Mr． Daniels needed to justify the high cost of attending Purdue to its students and their families． After all， the percentage of Americans who say a college degree is "very important" has fallen dramatically in the last 5﹣6 years．Purdue now has a pilot test to assess students' critical thinking skills．（2）________ However， they need not worry so much． The results of a recent experiment showed that professors could use standard grading scale to measure how well students did in three key areas： critical thinking， written communication and language literacy．（3）________ The organizers of the experiment concluded that far fewer students were achieving at high levels on critical thinking than they were doing for written communication or language literacy． And that conclusion is based only on students nearing graduation．American universities， despite their global reputation for excellence in teaching， have only begun to demonstrate what they can produce in real﹣world learning． Knowledge﹣based degrees are still important， but employers are demanding advanced thinking skills from college graduates．（4）________IV. Summary Writing8. Directions： Read the following passage． Summarize the main idea and the main point （s） of the passage in no more than 60 words． Use your own words as far as possible．New Research on Kids' Poor Math AchievementIf the thought of a math test makes you break out in a cold sweat， Mom or Dad may be partly to blame， according to the new research published in Psychological Science．A team of researchers found that children of math﹣anxious parents learned less math over the school year and were more likely to be math﹣anxious themselves﹣but only when these parents provided frequent help on the child's math homework．Previous research from this group has established that when teachers are anxious about math， their students learn less math during the school year． The current study is novel in that it establishes a link between parents' and children's math anxiety． These findings suggest that adults' attitudes toward math can play an important role in children's math achievement．"We often don't think about how important parents' own attitudes are in determining their children's academic achievement． But our work suggests that if a parent is walking around saying 'Oh， I don't like math' or 'this stuff makes me nervous，' kids pick up on this messaging and it affects their success，" explained Beilock， professor in psychology．"Math﹣anxious parents may be less effective in explaining math concepts to children， and may not respond well when children make a mistake or solve a problem in a novel way，" added Levine， Beilock's colleague．438 first﹣ and second﹣grade students and their primary caregivers participated in the study． Children were assessed in math achievement and math anxiety at both the beginning and end of the school year． As a control， the team also assessed reading achievement， which they found was not related to parents' math anxiety． Parents completed a questionnaire about their own nervousness and anxiety around math and howoften they helped their children with math homework．The researchers believe the link between parents' math anxiety and children's math performance stems more from math attitudes than genetics．V. TranslationDirections： Translate the following sentences into English， using the words given in the brackets.9. 后悔虚度光阴有意义吗？（point）________10. 科学家们已证明，"吸猫撸狗"是一种减轻压力的有效方式．（prove）________11. 可能你既不是霸凌者也不是受害人，但如果你知道有人正遭受霸凌，不要袖手旁观任其发生．（bully）________________12. 何先生买下这座铜像并捐赠给了国家，不仅彰显其令人钦佩的家国情怀，而且还提升了大众保护文物（relics）的意识．（patriotism）________VI. Guided Writing13. Directions： Write an English composition in 120﹣150 words according to the instructions given below in Chinese．如今，许多家长焦虑地守在孩子身边、密切关注孩子一举一动，被称之为"直升机父母（Helicopter parents）"，还有"扫雪机父母（Snowplow parents）"，轰隆隆地扫除孩子通往成功路上的所有障碍，让孩子免遭失败、挫折．对此，学校校刊特辟专栏对此进行讨论，请以李华为名投稿，用身边的例子描述这两类家长，并谈谈对此的看法．2020年上海市普陀区高考英语一模试卷答案1. because/since/as,that/ which,what,（had been） expected,must,to,was wiped,to migrate,Though/Although/While,rarest2.

Different from previous research on the relationship between teachers' anxiety and their students， a new research reveals parents' math anxiety undermines their children's math performance．（高分句型一）（一份新研究发现父母的数学担忧削弱了孩子的数学成绩）When the anxious parents help their children with math， their negative attitudes toward math will be passed on to their children， which indicates that not genetics but attitudes account for the kids' math performance．（高分句型二）（父母辅导孩子时的消极态度会传递给孩子）9. Is there any point regretting wasting/ having wasted time？10. Scientists have proved that petting/ raising/ playing with cats and dogs is an effective way to reduce/ relieve stress/pressure．11.

Mr． He bought the bronze statue and donated it to the country， which not only demonstrated/showed his admirable patriotism，but also promoted public awareness of the preservation of cultural relics．13. Nowadays， many parents are anxious to stay by their children's side and pay close attention to their children's every move． They are called "helicopter parents"， such as my parents． They accompany me to do homework every day． After I finish my homework，they will check it to find any mistakes for me， which leads me to depend on them too much．【高分句型一】（直升机父母）There are also "snowplow parents"， who are devoted to removing all obstacles on the way to success for children， so that children can avoid failure and setbacks． Most of my students have such parents． They do everything for their children to make sure they succeed．（扫雪机父母）Both of these parents raise children who are independent and lacking in these problem﹣solving skills．【高分句型二】 In the long term， it is not good for the development of their children．（总结）。
