Not only because of her flawless performance, but also for the innocence she displayed while speaking with the media. Quan said her dream is to save enough money to treat her sick mother, buy snacks, and go to an entertainment park and a zoo.Were it not for the postponement of the Tokyo Olympics due to the COVID- 19 pandemic, Quan would not have participated in the Games as she only joined the national team last year. Quan is the third child of her parents who live in a village in Zhanjiang, Guangdong province. The city of Zhanjiang has been a cradle of elite Chinese divers through the years, producing the likes of Lao Lishi, who won gold at the 2004 Athens Games, and He Chong, who ranked first at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.During a visit to Maihe Primary School, Chen Huaming, the diving coach at Zhanjiang Sports School, noticed Quan was more agile (敏捷的) and jumped much higher than other kids. After giving her a try on a diving board, he instantly knew he had discovered a true talent. Quan was not the only youngster to impress Chen, but he admitted she was the one that always practiced the hardest.Now Quan has become a sporting sensation. Her previously quiet rural home has become a must-see place for not only locals, but also livestreaming hosts and business people, who come for various purposes, all of which are aimed at trying to capitalize on the national attention her success story has attracted.These uninvited guests have seriously disturbed the Quan family's daily life, and their worldly-wise sophistication (精明) is in stark contrast with the innocence of Quan. The government is duty-bound to extend a helping hand to protect the family from being disturbed, so that the young diving genius can focus more on her training and studies.4.What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A.Quan didn’t join the national team until this year.B.Quan, Lao Lishi and He Chong are all Olympic champions.C.Quan’s parents have 3 children who live in a village in Zhanjiang.D.Quan could have taken part in Tokyo’s Olympic Games if it had been held last year. 5.Why do livestreaming hosts and business people visit Quan’s home?A.Her quiet rural home has become a sporting sensation.B.They want to extend a helping hand to her poor family.C.It is a must-see tourist attraction in the city of Zhanjiang.D.They want to take advantage of the national attention she received.6.The author thinks the government should ________.A.help her poor family financially B.send her abroad to study diving C.help her family live a quiet life D.focus more on her training and studies 7.Which of the following words can best describe Quan?A.Hardworking and innocent.B.Honest and strong-willed.C.Smart and reliable.D.Easy-going and brave.At some point in our lives, we all snore. A cold or allergy can block nasal passages, a few drinks too close to bed will automatically relax tongue, palate and throat muscles—and therefore we know that we’re unconsciously forcing air past those soft tissues, causing vibrations that escape as a snore.“Snoring can be normal and not something to worry about,” said sleep specialist Rebecca Robbins, an instructor in the division of sleep medicine for Harvard Medical School. But snoring can also be a key sign of obstructive sleep apnea (阻塞性睡眠呼吸暂停), a serious sleep disorder in which people actually stop breathing for 10 seconds or more at a time. “When it’s loud snoring, or it’s interrupted by pauses in breathing, that’s where we start to get concerned,” Robbins said.It’s estimated that at least 25 million Americans and 936 people worldwide may sufferfrom obstructive sleep apnea, with many more undiagnosed. It’s called “obstructive sleep apnea” because unlike central sleep apnea —in which the brain occasionally skips telling the body to breathe — obstructive sleep apnea is due to a closure of the airways by weak, heavy or relaxed soft tissues.“You’re making the effort with your belly and your chest to try to get the air in and out, but because of the block in the upper airway, you can’t. Often you aren’t aware of this struggle, but it can be very, very scary for anyone watching,” said sleep specialist Dr. Raj Dasgupta, an associate professor of clinical medicine at the Keck School of Medicine at the University of Southern California. If left untreated, obstructive sleep apnea puts you at a high risk for hypertension, heart disease, type 2 diabetes or depression, even an early death, according to the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.8.What’s Rebecca Robbins’s attitude towards snoring?A.Indifferent.B.Objective.C.Negative.D.Positive. 9.According to the passage, what’s the reason for obstructive sleep apnea?A.Bad sleeping habits.B.Blocked breathing organs. C.Infection from family members.D.Unhealthy eating habits.10.What can we infer from the passage?A.Most people who have obstructive sleep apnea have been diagnosed.B.Most people who have obstructive sleep apnea realize their breathing difficulties. C.There is no need to worry about any type of snoring.D.Obstructive sleep apnea may lead to a variety of diseases.11.What will the author write about in the following paragraph of the passage?A.The dangers of obstructive sleep apnea.B.The history of American Academy of Sleep Medicine.C.The importance for people to realize the existence of obstructive sleep apnea.D.The scientific methods for treating obstructive sleep apnea.Back in 1933, a man called George Spicer and his wife were driving along a road near Loch Ness. Suddenly, a weird animal with a long neck crossed in front of the car...or so the Spicers claimed. Ever since then, the Loch Ness monster has been a household name, although myths of a terrifying creature in the Loch date back to the Dark Ages.Since the Spicers’ experience, scientists have been wondering whether such an animalmight really exist in the Loch’s murky depths. Research teams have patiently watched Loch Ness’s surface for weeks at a time, submarines have explored its deep, dark waters, and underwater cameras and sonar have searched for it. Most of this work happened from the 1960s to 1980s, during a ‘golden age’ of Nessie hunting.Yet no monster has been found. Nevertheless, there have been more than 1,000 reported sightings in total, and every year tourists visit the Loch in the hope of catching a glimpse of a monster. But there is no reason to think that anyone has really seen Nessie. Instead, they have seen seals, birds, swimming deer and unusual waves.Despite this, the idea that Nessie might be real is still popular. So earlier this year, Professor Neil Gemmell from the University of Otage in New Zealand led a trip to Loch Ness, using a new scientific technique to find Nessie and solve the mystery once and for all. He set out to search for something called ‘environmental DNA’, or eDNA for short.EDNA has helped us find all kinds of rare, shy and even extinct animals and plants, so Gemmell wondered if eDNA could be collected from samples of water taken from different points of Loch Ness. He put together a research team, raised the money needed to complete the project , and set to work. Right now, we are still waiting for the results from Gemmell’s project. But even if eDNA for Nessie is not discovered, the project is still useful, because it could help provide a complete list of every plant and animal species living in Loch Ness. 12.What’s the meaning of the underlined word?A.Uneasy.B.Dark.C.Dizzy.D.Untrue. 13.Which method was not used during the 1960s and 1980s to prove the existence of the Loch Ness monster?A.Observation over the Loch Ness surface.B.Submarine exploration.C.Fishing activities.D.Underwater technical devices. 14.What can we infer from the passage?A.The Loch Ness monster has been witnessed many times.B.People who claim to have seen the Loch Ness monster may have been mistaken. C.EDNA was used for the first time in the search for the Loch Ness monster.D.The project of Gemmell will be considered a failure if evidence of Nessie is not found. 15.What’s the best title for this passage?A.Will We Ever Find Nessie?B.Are the Sightings of Nessie Real?C.Return of the ‘Golden Age’ for Hunting the Sea Monster.D.New Evidence of Nessie Found by New Zealand Scientists.二、七选五A research paper is a long essay in which writers present their perspective on a topic using independent sources. It is a proven fact that finding reliable and valid sources for research papers is your first and primary task. ____16____ Here’s how to gather the information from sources before you start writing.Is the author a respected authority in the field?The credibility of an author is very important in determining the quality of sources.____17____ But such claims must be confirmed. Look for the author’s academic background, and professional associations. You can search the web for the author or search DISCOVERY to see what also the author has written.Is the publisher reputable?University and academic presses publish high-quality material that has beenpeer-reviewed. Experts assess the merits of the paper before it is published, which ensures its quality. ____18____ Government or educational sites — ones that have names with gov or edu — are usually reliable.Does the source contain any bias?Bias is not necessarily disqualifying, but you need to determine whether the source favors a certain side of an issue. For example, if an article says that petrol companies do not represent a danger to the environment, check what other sources are cited. If most of the sources are from oil companies, there is probably bias.____19____In general, sources should be within the past 10 years for subjects in which information changes quickly (science, technology, medicine). Consider whether the age of a source adversely affects its usefulness to your research. No matter what the date of publication is, it is your responsibility to be sure that all of your sources contain information that is relevant and accurate.Now that you have your notes from your sources, it is time to write your first draft, and you must include specific information from your source to support your ideas. ____20____— but if you can collect the right resources from the start, you’re halfway there!A.How current is the information?B.Does the author agree or disagree with my ideas?C.If you are using a website, make sure it is reputable.D.Putting together a top-grade essay is a demanding task.E.Many people on the Internet describe themselves as experts.F.Although it is not a simple or quick process, it is possible to do it on your own. G.When using a computer for searching sources, make sure to respect the library’s policies.三、完形填空When Jacob Kohut finally had some time off during his 12-hour shift standing guard outside the U. S. Capitol, he sat in the back of a Humvee (悍马), ____21____ in hand, teaching students via his laptop how to play Beethoven’s “Ode to Joy.” ( 《欢乐颂》)“I’m a soldier for the Guard, but I'm as much a soldier for music ____22____ , ” he says. Kohut used to be in the ____23____ for ten years, and now when security support is needed at the US Capitol, he is one of the 25,000 troops supporting Joe Biden’s inauguration (就职典礼).When he was called up for ____24____ , “My first thought was, what about my kids?” says Kohut. “The ____25____ thing these students need is a disturbance in their teaching.”The school principal Diane Leipzig assured Kohut she would find a substitute teacher to ____26____ his classes, but he ____27____ continuing to teach. “He teaches our kids the importance of ____28____ and dedication.” Leipzig said.____29____ has always been a driving force in Kohut’s life.

“I don’t want to see that cat in our yard again,” my husband said as he drove the beautiful cat back into the neighbor’s yard. “Cats aren’t like dogs, honey. They are very ind ependent and tend to move around wherever they please, especially if they are mousing,” I said. “Well, text our neighbor and let her know I don’ I appreciate her cat in our yard,” he insisted. Sighing, I sent off a quick text to our sweet neighbor, Cheryl, informing her of my husband’s dislike of cats. “I’ll do my best,” she replied sometime later, “but it’s kind of hard controlling where she goes when I let her outside.” The following morning, John stood at the picture window in our bedroom. He’d installed it so that I could watch the birds visiting our feeders.“You aren’t going to believe this,” he said. “Come look!” Slowly, I approached the window, praying Cheryl’s cat wasn’t in our yard. “Oh, my God!” I cried. Seated side by side, right in the center of our yard, were two enormous groundhogs (土拨鼠). We’d observed groundhogs before, especially since our back yard backs, up to a wooded area, but never, had they been as brave as these two. John raised the window, and the two raced into the woods. That evening, I happened to glance out the picture window. Then something caught my eye in. the flowerbed beyond. “John, come quick!” Hurriedly, he entered the bedroom just in time to see one of the groundhogs chewing on the flowers we’d planted around the water foun tain. “Why, it’ s eating every single blossom!”Again, John lifted the window, and the groundhog fled into the woods. “Hmmm, I better look up groundhogs on the computer and see just how destructive they can be.” Before he left the room, however, he saw something again. A groundhog was chewing our vegetables in the center of the garden. Across the yard, we’d planted a vegetable garden. We’d taken great pains to enclose the rows and rows of plants in chicken wire.注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

Do we need to make swimming compulsory in schools? Forum readers share their opinions.White Bear (Poland)In Poland swimming lessons are not compulsory, but most of the schools have them. I think that when it is only possible—there should be the swimming lessons for kids. It is a lifesaving skill.Mister Panda (France)I come from France where swimming lessons in school are compulsory. I even got my lifesaving certificate in school.Jet Feng (China)As a boy born in a rural area, I learnt swimming in a river near my home when I was 7 or 8 years old. I used to play in the river with boys my same age every summer, which was also the only entertainment we could make at that time, but we enjoyed it so much! I just learnt how to dog paddle because no one taught us. Until I entered university, I got a chance to enhance my swimming skills in PE lessons. Compared with my classmates, I felt lucky because most of them couldn't swim.I think it's a good idea for schools to teach students to swim. But as a matter of fact, not every school in China has the conditions to do that. In some less-developed areas, there is not even a swimming pool.Boilermaker21 (Expat in China)There are swimming lessons in my city, but I was very disappointed in how they were taught. The kids spent 45 minutes of the one-hour lesson practicing strokes ON DRY LAND.They only spent 15 minutes in the water. All of the children panicked and sank immediately to the bottom. Then all of the parents berated the children, telling them that they weren't paying attention to the teacher and that they were failures.Cecilia Zhang (China)It is a pity that many Chinese athletes won world championships in swimming while most schools don't have the swimming facilities. Swimming is an essential lifesaving skill that everyone should access to. The earlier, the better. The government needs to put moneyinto the popularity of the sport.36.What can be concluded from White Bear's opinion?A.In Poland, swimming lessons must be given at school.B.In Poland, the swimming sport is very popular.C.Most of the schools have swimming pools in Poland.D.In Poland, students are required to swim every day.37.What do we know about Jet Feng when he was a child?A.He didn't know how to swim.B.He was brought up .1n a city.C.He lived a colorful life in his childhood.D.He didn't receive formal swimming training.38.How did Boilermaker21 feel about the swimming lessons in his city? A.Disappointed.B.Satisfied.C.Excited.D.Bored. 39.What can be indicated from Cecilia Zhang's words?A.Chinese athletes won world championship in swimming events.B.Chinese schools have not paid any attention to the swimming lessons.C.The government hasn’t spent enough money on the popularity of the sport.D.It is a pity that few Chinese athletes won world championships in swimming.40.In which section of the newspaper can you find the passage?A.Entertainment.B.Advertisement.C.Education.D.Technology.Pandas are not only a national treasure, but are loved around the world.Recently, a giant panda cub born in August at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo, US, was given the name Xiao Qi Ji, which is translated into English as “little miracle”. The choice was the result of a five-day online vote that drew nearly 135,000 voters in the US. Interestingly, National Public Radio said that in a nod to Chinese tradition, the name was not chosen until 100 days after the birth.This cub’s birth proved to be quite inspiring - and at a time when inspiration was truly needed.“Xiao Qi Ji’s birth is a true miracle that has been so uplifting to all of us during the pandemic (疫情),” Chinese Ambassador to the US Cui Tiankai said in a video congratulatory message. “ We are connected again in the growth of our little ambassador, and in our shared joy and friendship.”The furry black-and-white animals have played an important role in the country’s diplomacy, known as “ panda diplomacy (外交)”.According to the Japanese Royal Annual, the practice dates back to the Tang Dynasty, when Empress Wu Zetian sent a pair of pandas to the Japanese emperor.China revived panda diplomacy in the 1950s when China sent two pandas to the Moscow Zoo. By 1982, China had given 23 pandas to nine different countries. However, most of them have died. China stopped giving away pandas in the early 1980s. Instead, the animals are loaned to other countries. In general, they are to be returned to China after 10 years.But why do these cute “diplomats” find it hard to survive in other countries? According to Xinhua, their dietary habit is one significant reason. Their nutrition mostly comes from bamboo shoots. Adult giant pandas consume about 40 kilograms of bamboo daily. Pandas can also be quite picky. They refuse to eat bamboo shoots after they have blossomed.It takes 10 years for a new crop of bamboo to mature, and many countries do not have an environment suitable for bamboo growth. This means that food has to be imported In August, Calgary Zoo in Canada announced that due to pandemic-related changes in its import laws and quarantine methods, they couldn’t provide enough fresh bamboo for pandas. This meant that they had to send two giant pandas back to China.But countries are still trying their best to facilitate this special type of diplomacy. “We don’t own the pandas, but the whole world wants to help save the panda, and we do that through our knowledge exchange.” Steven Monfort, director of the Smithsonian’s National Zoo, told China Daily.41.The expression “in a nod to” in Para. 2 is closest in meaning to________.A.in praise for B.in response to C.in favor of D.in order to observe42.Why China decided that pandas are only loaned to other countries?A.Because the pandas’ dietary habit was significantly changed abroad.B.Because the pandas couldn’t have bamboo to eat in other countries.C.Because most of pandas could not be adapted to the climate abroad.D.Because most of the pandas sent to other countries couldn’t survive.43.What can we learn from the text?A.It was the first time that China had sent a panda to Japan.B.The practice “panda diplomacy” dales from the Tang Dynasty.C.China began panda diplomacy, sending two pandas to Moscow Zoo.D.Two giant pandas had to be returned because they were sick in Canada.44.What Steven Monfort’s attitude towards the special type of diplomacy? A.Favorable.B.Uncaring.C.Disapproving.D.Doubtful. 45.What is the purpose of the passage?A.To tell us how to feed pandas properly.B.To call on people to love pandas in the world.C.To introduce the furry black and white ambassador.D.To explain why “panda diplomacy” is stopped.A serious problem for today’s society is who should be responsible for our elderly and how to improve their lives. It is not only a financial problem but also a quashing of the system we want for our society. I would like to suggest several possible solutions to this problem.First, employers should take the responsibility for their retired employees. To make this possible, a percentage of profits should be set aside for this purpose. But when a company must take life-long responsibility for its employees, it may softer from a commercial disadvantage due to higher employee costs.Another way of solving the problem is to return the responsibility to the individual. This means each person must save during his working years to pay for his years of retirement. This does not seem a very fair model since some people have enough trouble paying for their daily life without trying to earn extra to cover their retirement years. This means the government might have to step in to care for the poor.In addition, the government could take responsibility for the care of the elderly. This could be financed through government taxes to increase the level of pensions. Furthermore, some institution should be created for senior daises, which can help provide a comfortable life for them. Unfortunately, as the present situation in our country shows, this is not a truly viable answer. The government can seldom afford to care for the elderly, particularly when it is busy trying to care for the young.One further solution is that the government or social organizations establish some working places especially for the elderly where they are independent.To sum up, all these options have advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, it is reasonable to expect that some combination of these options may be needed to provide the care we hope to give to our elderly generations.46.What is the passage mainly about?A.The problems faced by the old in society.B.Why we should take responsibility for the old.C.How we can improve the lives of the old.D.Where the old can go to get their pensions.47.According to the passage, how can the government help to improve the lives of retired people?A.Set aside some profits to help people with problems after they retire.B.Increase savings levels of people during their working years.C.Increase the discounts for food and transport for the old.D.Make available pensions for those who have retired.48.The underlined word “viable” most probably means “ ”.A.impossible B.practicalC.useful D.successful49.What can be concluded from the passage?A.Taking care of the old is mainly an issue of money.B.Employers should allow their workers to retire at a later age.C.Becoming independent should be the goal of most old people.D.There is no single solution to the problems of the old.50.What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this article?A.To point out the need for government supped for old people.B.To make general readers aware of the problems of retired people.C.To discuss some possible solutions to an important social problem.D.To instruct retired people on how they can have a happier life.Most of us still have lots of photographs sitting around from the days when we used cameras, not telephones, to take pictures. There are probably many photos that we do not look at and may never see again. But these images, representing memories from our past, do not have to be lost. Google has create a tool to help bring these forgotten pictures back to life invery high quality.The PhotoScan app works the same as an image scanner. But this software program uses the camera on your phone to capture images as digital copies, which is a quick and easy way to save old photos without having to spend money on new equipment. The PhotoScan app uses new technology to improve the capturing process, which makes it possible to take a picture of a photo with a camera phone, without glare, a common problem.After opening the app, the user first puts the desired photo within the camera’s frame. When this is done, four small circles appear in different places over the photo. The user then moves the phone over each of the circles, which change color after the process completes. That’s it! The app finds the edges of the photo, straightens the image, and puts it in the right position while removing glare. From this point, the pictures can easily be saved to the Google Photos app or somewhere else. If you do have Google Photos, images are organized by face or place and can easily be found.The release of PhotoScan came at the same time as some changes to the Google Photos app. One change is an improved auto tool that Google says creates high-quality effects in just one step. Another tool lets users choose from 12 different looks to improve overall photo quality. The third provides high-level controls for changing light and colors.Anil Sabharwal, the Vice President of Google Photos, explained why he created PhotoScan. In 1947, his parents lived under British colonial rule in India and were ordered to leave their home with only a few belongings. They decided to leave behind jewelry and other valuables, but gathered up as many photos as they could take.51.What can we know about the PhotoScan app?A.It is new equipment used to scan images.B.It can adjust the angle of cameras by moving four small circles.C.Users can use it to take digital photos.D.Using it to photograph pictures won’t have glare.52.In the third paragraph, the author mentions ____________.A.how to use the PhotoScan app B.where to find Google Photos. C.what the benefits of the app are D.why the new app can benefit us 53.What is the advantage of Google Photo according to the passage?A.It provides various styles that users can select from to improve the appsB.Users can easily find the desired picture through the photographing place.C.The changed storage space is bigger than before.D.It stores most pictures captured by PhotoScan.54.What can we infer about Anil Sabharwal from the last paragraph?A.He got the idea for PhotoScan from his family’s experiences.B.His parents helped him a lot while in India.C.British colonial rule forced him to make PhotoScan.D.His family’s poverty promotes him to create PhotoScan55.The purpose of the passage is to__________.A.persuade us to use the PhotoScan app.B.tell us a new Google app brings old photographs back to life.C.remind us of the pictures representing memories from our past.D.offer some suggestions for Google to improve its new app.四、阅读表达阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题。

重庆市第一中学2020-2021学年高一下学期第一次月考英语试题
重庆市第一中学2020-2021学年高一下学期第一次月考英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读选择Jackie Chan is arguably the biggest non-Hollywood movie star in the world. Chan has been very helpful in creating the film type of kung-fu comedy, which transformed the Hong Kong film industry. Inspired by legendary film clowns such as Buster Keaton and Harold Lloyd, Chan has invented his own unique film style, combining humor and stunt (特技).Jackie Chan was born on April 7, 1954 in Hong Kong. He was the only child of Charles and Lee-Lee Chan. Though the family lived in a flat in the Victoria Peak district, they didn’t own it — Charles worked as a cook for the French ambassador, while Lee-Lee was the housekeeper.Chan attended Nah-Hwa Primary School on Hong Kong Island, often spending his money on food, fighting on the way to school with other children. He was not academically bright, failing to pass Primary 1 as his peers moved on to Primary 3. Charles decided to send the seven-year-old boy to the Peking Opera School. Walking in with his father, Chan saw children somersaulting and playing with swords and sticks. He recalls that he felt like entering Disneyland. He would never return to an academic education. Though he speaks seven languages, he still cannot read or write with great —proficiency and has someone else write his scripts for him.As an amazing artist, Chan experienced strict training at the Peking Opera School, where he studied acting, singing, dance and martial arts for 19 hours a day for a period of 10 years. Being something of a miracle, he was introduced to public performance early. At eight he was cast in Big and Little Wong Tin Bar, with the great Taiwanese star, Li Lihua, as his mother. Chan’s extraordinary athleticism and unique stunt-work quickly brought him a lead role in Master with Crocked Fingers.After several attempts to break into American cinema from the Hong Kong market, Chan finally met with success, widening his heroic characters and making them more international. 1.What led to Jackie Chan’s success?A.His unique kung-fu film style.B.Receiving training for legendary film clowns.C.His acting in Hollywood.D.Being born into a kung-fu family.2.Why did Jackie Chan’s father send him to the Peking Opera School?A.Because his father was very fond of Peking Opera.B.Because his father didn’t have enough money to support him.C.Because Jackie Chan wasn’t doing well at the primary school.D.Because Jackie Chan show great interest in public performance.3.What is the main idea of the last two paragraph?A.How Jackie Chan became an international star.B.The main films of Jackie Chan.C.The development of the Hong Kong film market.D.The different roles that Jackie Chan has played.Who doesn’t want to live life in style? Life is like a road on which you never get a chance to return, and is not a very long road either. So we should try to live life to the fullest and enjoy every bit of it.Every individual has unique likings and preferences, and all of us try to live the lives that suit us best. The world is like a painting cloth on which different people with different races, different languages, and different cultural backgrounds interact. But among these, the arts provide an easy and natural way for people to connect.People with a knack for the arts usually discover it in childhood. But art isn’t only for the talented; it can help everyone grow. Those with a strong artistic background are often more energetic, and more successful in all fields of life. Art widens the range of a person’s life.Painting is one of the most popular art forms. Those who are interested in taking it up as a career need to go through extensive training to get familiar with the various styles. Professional painters often host art exhibitions, with art lovers from all over the world coming to see and buy their creations. Sometimes the paintings are sold at high prices.Performing arts are equally popular and admired. Dance, instrumental music, drama and so on require unusual artistic talent as well as a long period of education and training before audiences start to applaud the performances. But anyone with some artistic sense can make art part of his/ her life, and benefit from it.4.People should make the most of life because .A.life is difficult but enjoyable timeB.life is valuable and ordinaryC.life is too short to be wastedD.life is like a road full of tomorrows5.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 2?A.Different people have different lifestyles.B.Different peoples have different cultures.C.Art can make people happier.D.Art can connect people together6.The underlined word “knack” in Paragraph 3 possibly means “”.A.character B.abilityC.power D.favour7.What is the passage mainly about?A.How great artists make a living by selling their works.B.How to live a unique and colorful life.C.How the arts contribute to people’s lives.D.How much performing arts have to do with talent and education.German artist HA Schult is an unusual artist who uses trash (废物) to make sculptures. “We are living in the time of garbage,” says Schult. “I created a thousand sculptures of garbage. They are a mirror of ourselves.” Here, Schult was talking about his 1,000 trash sculptures in the form of humans. He first exhibited them in 1996 in the western German state of North Rhine-Westphalia.“They are social sculptures,” he explains. “They are not only sculptures for the eyes. They are sculptures to spread the idea that we live in a time of garbage.” So far, Schult’s social sculptures have been on show in Par is, in Moscow’s Red Square, on the Great Wall of China, and in the desert next to the Pyramids of Giza near Cairo.HA Schulfs work is unforgettable. Although his work has had a big influence on the art world, Schult remains modest (谦虚的) about his creations: “Artists have to learn every time. We are not important. All that counts is the time in which we are living.”Trash art has been around for years. But it seems that only the popular artists are regarded as true artists when working with trash. W hy can’t common people be considered artists whenthey use the same things and change them into some form of personal art? Maybe it’s because we all have our own preset ideas of what art is and isn’t, or whom artists are or should be.You can be an artist like Schult if you try. Look at used metal cans. What might be done with them? Imagine them in any number of new uses, or imagine them simply as an art form. What about boxes or clothing? Boxes can usually serve as new storage containers and houses for pets. And clothing? Imagine taking old clothes and turning them into hats or hanging organizers.8.What do we know about Schult’s sculptures?A.They served as garbage containers.B.They reflected environmental problems.C.They were first shown in Paris, France.D.They were to raise economic awareness.9.HA Schult’s artistic works also get the message across that an artist must .A.be socially responsibleB.be as modest as possibleC.make garbage recyclableD.take different kinds of artistic forms10.Which of the following is the best title for the text?A.Could You Be a Trash Artist?B.What Are Social Sculptures?C.Do You Know about Trash Art?D.How Can We Deal with Used Cans?二、七选五Ways to Strengthen Your BrainpowerWant a healthier, sharper brain? It’s easier than you think to achieve improved cognition (认知) and memory. Try these simple tips to power up your brain!1. Play ping-pong.11.Researchers have found that in players older than 50, ping-pong improves brain health by activating specific neurons (神经元), and shows promise in preventing dementia (an illness that affects the brain and memory, and makes you gradually lose the ability to think and behave normally).2. Close your eyes.Research has found that closing your eyes while recalling an event could help you remember details 23 percent more accurately.12.It’s thought that once visual distractions are removed, your brain focuses more efficiently.3. Shake your body.Anew study has found that regular aerobic (有氧的) exercise can actually increase the size of your hippocampus — the part of your brain that helps you learn and remember.13.4. Find your sleep sweet spot.Getting a good nig ht’s sleep is the best thing you can do for your brain long term.14.The National Sleep Foundation recommends seven to nine hours of shut-eye per night for adults ages 18 to 64, and seven to eight hours for adults 65 and older.5.15.Make a point to regula rly ask yourself, “What if everything went right instead of wrong?” Positive thinking can actually activate your brain’s physical ability to adapt and change. Former President Jimmy Carter, 91, who responded to his recent cancer diagnosis with “optimism an d determination,” is a great example of this.A.How does it work?B.Look on the bright side.C.Hang out with friends and family.D.It improves your mood and clears out your mind.E.So whether it’s dancing, jumping or running, it’s good for your brain.F.If you want to sharpen your brain, you have to focus your attention on yourself.G.Table tennis has long been praised for its ability to improve attention and concentration.三、完形填空I love old people. Two of my best Mends are eighty-nine. I never understood it, 16 for some reason I’ve always been 17 to older people much more than children. I have such fond 18 of sitting with my grandfather before he died. We used to 19 him once a week, talk to each other for an hour or so, and then I leave. At the 20 of a very good friend, I started going to see him 21 my own. I value that I was able to hear his stories and 22 mine. When I announced that I made a decision against our custom and my family was giving me a 23 time, the words of my grandfather helped to 24me through. He said, “I don’t know why you’re doing this, but I 25 you.” That’s really all I needed to hear.Later on, I 26 in a hospital and in a number of retirement communities. I have seen it all.

Niesha could not forget the way she had frozen in front of the class today.Mr. Roberts had divided the class into groups to do presentations. Today had been Niesha’s turn. However, her hands had shaken so badly that she couldn’t read her notes. Her voice had become softer even to silence. Mr. Roberts had kindly ended Niesha’s part of the presentation even though she had clearly not finished. He had also asked Niesha to stay after class for a moment.“Niesha, I know you’re shy, but you worked hard on this project. I’d hate to see you give up on yourself.” Mr. Roberts had hesitated,“If I give you until tomorrow, do you think you can find your co urage?”Niesha had nodded, grateful for the chance. She had gone as quickly as she could to her next class. She had kept her head down and hoped the school day would end soon.When she reached her back steps that afternoon, she could see an inviting light coming from the kitchen windows. Momma was baking. Momma studied Niesha’s face as she came into the kitchen. “What’s wrong, Niesha?”Tears shone in Niesha’s brown eyes. She told her the whole story. Momma was silent for a moment, her hands still busy with t he cake. “Why is it that you can talk to me about anything and everything, but you can’t talk to your class?” Momma asked. She set the timer and then said, “Let me show you something.”Niesha followed Momma to her bedroom. There Momma showed her a book filled with newspaper clippings and pictures. In it there was a blue ribbon(丝带)that said “First Place” and a picture of herself when she was very young, standing with her parents.“I won it for public speaking. I started the school year as the shyest girl on the speech team, but I ended the year as the blue ribbon winner. It wasn’t easy at first—not sure of myself at all. I worked hard, and mostly I faced my fears. You just need to find your courage.”注意:1.续写词数应为150 左右:2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

1. What will Lily do on Monday?A. Deliver some paper.B. Make a speech.C. Borrow some books.【答案】B【解析】审题,明确定位点为Lily Monday,明确答案和女性相关。
分析选项,合理推测对话内容及答案。
A项意为“送一些纸”,B项意为“做一个演讲”,C项意为“借一些书”。
由“纸”,“书”,“演讲”等词汇可推知:对话地点为图书馆,对话内容为周一演讲的准备,对话时间很有可能是在周末。
所以我们推测AC两个选项不太可能会作为答案,因为两个选项适合在图书馆内发生,女性在进行周一演讲前的准备工作,很有可能为干扰项,因此我们可以进行排除;而B项“做一个演讲”与定位点Monday可构成最佳搭配,故提前锁定答案为B项。
【原文】Text 1M: Lily, I couldn't find you anywhere in the morning. Where were you?W: I went to the library to find some information about Chinese festivals.【干扰项出题点】I'll deliver a speech next Monday.2. What can we say about the man?A. He's enthusiastic.B. He's generous.C. He's thankful.【答案】C【解析】审题,明确定位点为the man,选项为性格特征,类似于阅读理解中的推断题。

2021届重庆市杨家坪中学高三英语一模试题及答案解析
2021届重庆市杨家坪中学高三英语一模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AWhen the sun shines brightly, it provides a great chance to get outdoor things done. Like making hay! At least, that is what farmers from the past would say. ―Make hay while the sun shines.This idiom is very old, dating back to Medieval times. Rain would often ruin the process of making hay. So, farmers had no choice but to make hay when the sun was shining.Today, we all use this expression, not just farmers. When conditions are perfect to get something done, we can say, ―It’s a good idea to make hay while the sun shines.In other words, you are taking advantage of a good situation or of good conditions. You are making the most of your opportunities. These all mean ―making hay while the sun shines.And sometimes we use this expression to mean we beat someone to the punch, or we got ahead of someone else. And other times you make hay while the sun shines to make good use of the chance to do something while it lasts. You are being opportunistic – taking advantage of a good opportunity. For example, my friend Ozzy was sick for a week and could not go to work. So, his co-worker Sarah -- who doesn’t like him -- took advantage of his illness and stole his project! Talk about making hay while the sun shines.Sometimes when you make hay while the sun shines you are staying ahead of a problem – like in this example:Hey, do you want to go hiking with me and my friends this weekend? The weather is going to be beautiful! I wish I could. But I have to finish my taxes. It’s the last weekend before they’re due.Oh, that’s too bad.Wait. What about your taxes?My taxes are done. I was off from work a couple of weeks ago and made hay while the sun shined. I got all of it done!I wish I would have taken advantage of my time off last week___1___All I did was lay around thehouse.And that’s all the time we have for these Words and Their Stories. But join us again next week. You can listen while you’re making dinner or riding to work. Yeah, make hay while the sun shines.1.Which of the following best matches ―make hay whilethe sun shines in paragraph 2?A.Sow nothing, reap nothing.B.Sharp tools make good work.C.Strike while the iron is hot.D.One swallow doesn’t make a summer.2.According to the underlined sentence, what feeling does the speaker express?A.AdmirableB.RegretfulC.AnnoyedD.Indifferent3.Where is the passage probably taken from?A.A radio programB.A magazineC.A brochureD.A novelBTexas has been one of the most restrictive gun-rights states in America.Thanks to a new law,however,the state will be one of the most relaxed,to the degree that police are discouraged from even asking about someone's guns. And if they do, they may not have much power to do anything if the person refuses to show a license.To be sure, the law is strict in its own way,offering a model for regulation. Under the law, open-carry citizens have to be licensed, a process that includes safety and shooting tests. They also have to show no prior psychological problems, and they have to be at least 21 years old.It is true that gun violence dropped sharply after restrictive laws were put in place in countries like Great Britain and Australia. However,the US public seems more interested than ever in weapons and the power they convey,despite gun control groups' concern over the increase of violence. Most states in America have steadily expanded gun rights since the end of a 10-year assault(攻击)weapons ban in 2004. Black Friday this year saw the biggest gun cache(贮存)ever purchased in one day.Considering those trends,there's a heated debate about whether the new Texas law is a model piece of legislation(立法)for a changing America,or a walking disaster just begging for trouble. As the law doesn't provide any punishment for those who refuse to show a license to a police officer, critics fear that officers may find it tough to handle potentially deadly situations. After all, armed citizens will no longer be considered suspicious, even though a lot of people might be alarmed by the sight. Most police in Texas have been told to not engage gun carriers unless they are doing something questionable or appear drunk.For sure,New Year's Day will be an exciting one for Texas gun owners. What's not yet known is how the rest of Texas will respond.4. All of the following are required in the new Texas law for open carry EXCEPTA. age limitB. mental conditionC. online registrationD. gun-operating skills5. What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 3?A. The reason for putting forward the new Texas law.B. The present situation of gun possession in America.C. The impact of the assault weapons ban in 2004.D. The inaction of the US government as to gun control.6. What do critics think the new Texas law will probably lead to?A. Heavier workload for policemen.B. Disrespect for officers.C. Lack of trust among citizens.D. Difficulty in crime prevention.7. What is the author's attitude towards the new Texas law?A. Negative.B. Cautious.C. Indifferent.D. Approving.CThere are many useful things we can do each day to feel better. It may take some efforts and time to make a habit of drinking 8 glasses of water daily or thinking more positively, but it is well worth it. What things do you do every day to feel better?Probably the healthiest thing you can do to feel better each day is to exercise early in the morning. You don't have to run the whole morning or spend a few hours in the gym. Even doing some easy exercise like walking, sit-ups or jumping the rope will help you feel better in no time!Again, due to our busy schedules, we don't get enough sleep each night. If you have trouble falling asleep, avoid watching TV or surfing the Internet right before bed. Also, try to make healthy bedtime snack choices and don't drink tea or coffee too late in the day.If you drink 3 glasses of water, 4 glasses of coffee or tea and a glass of soda each day and think that you drink enough water, think again. Your body needs water (not coffee or soda!) to function properly. Aiming to drink 7-8glasses of water each day can make you feel better.Being positive is the key to a longer life. Positive thoughts can help improve your overall heath. Life is full of stressful situations and it's hard to stay cheerful when everything goes wrong, but your positive attitude can help you solve any problem and fight any stress faster and easier. Your positive attitude is especially good for your heart health. Smile, stay positive and live a longer life!8. In the author's opinion which can benefit us most in order that we feel better?A. Sleeping enough.B. Drinking enough water.C. Thinking more positively.D. Taking morning exercise.9. Which of the following agrees with what is said in Paragraph 3?A. Drinking tea or coffee makes us sleep less.B. Drinking tea before bed makes it harder to fall asleep.C. Watching TV or surfing the Internet leads to less sleep.D. Our busy schedules cause more difficulty in falling asleep.10. Why is water necessary to our body?A. Because it can make us feel better.B. Because it can have our body work smoothly.C. Because in can do more good to our body thancoffee.D. Because it can hep avoid feeling thirsty.11. What do we need most when everything goes wrong?A. Thinking positively.B. Thinking out wise ways.C. Having a right attitude.D. Staying cheerful.DMark Twain,the famous American writer,was once traveling in France.He went by trainto Dijon.He was very tired and wanted to sleep.He therefore asked the conductor to wake him up when the train came to Dijon.But first he explained he was a very heavy sleeper,“I may possibly protest(抗议)loudly when you try to wake me up,” he said to the conductor.“But don’t take any notice of what I say.Just put me off the train anyway.”Then Mark Twain went to ter,when he woke up it was night time and the train had reached Paris already.He realized at once that the conductor had forgotten to wake him up at Dijon.He was so angry that he ran to the conductor and began to shout at him.“I have never been so angry in my life,” Mark Twain said.The conductor looked at him calmly(平静地).“You are not half so angry as the American whom I put off the train atDijon,” he said.12. Mark Twain knew that he was a heavy sleeper,so ________.A. he protested loudly to the conductorB. he did not sleep before he arrived inDijonC. he told the conductor to wake him up no matter how loudly he might protestD. he slept lightly that time13.

Which of the following is TRUE?A. The conductor didn’t take Mark Twain’s words seriously.B. The conductor did take Mark Twain’s words seriously.C. The conductor was a heavy sleeper.D. Mark Twain must get off atParis.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。

ADoha,QatarQatar is currently involved in a major conflict with many other countries in the Middle Eastern region,but visitors to its capital,Doha,will still find themselves in the safest city in the world.It's home to the Museum of Islamic Art,designed by I.M.Pei with inspiration from traditional Islamic architecture,which houses Islamic art from three different continents that have a history of over 1,400 years.Abu Dhabi,United Arab EmiratesDropping down from the top spot last year is Abu Dhabi,the capital of the United Arab Emirates,with a safety index of 88.03.While it has a population of just over 1 million,only 420,000 are actually citizens—whose average net worth is $17 million dollars.It is also home to the Sheikh Zayed Mosque,the country's largest,as well as many camel races.Quebec City,CanadaQuebec City is one of the few cities in North America that still has its original city walls.One of the most romantic cities on the planet,its Old Town was named a UNESCO World Heritage Site,and as a city with just over 700,000 residents,it's got a safety index of 85.36,landing it inthe top three.Osaka,JapanOsaka is the best city in Japan for food,drinks,and nightlife,and it's safer than ever.Make sure you visit Osaka Castle while you're here,which has a park attached,or the nearby Momofuku Ando Instant Ramen Museum,where you can even customize(定制) your own Cup Noodles to take home.21.In which city can you watch a special sports event?A.Doha. B.Abu Dhabi.C.Quebec City.D.Osaka.22.What can you do in Quebec City,Canada?A.Appreciate Islamic art.B.Go to see castles.C.Visit ancient city walls.D.Make the noodles you like.23.What do the cities have in common?A.They have museums.B.They are romantic.C.They have wealthy citizens.D.They are very safe.BThe world can be a scary place when you're young.It can be even scarier when you're a young little blue penguin(企鹅),the tiniest of the penguin species.Luckily,there are some humans willing to help.They stepped in to protect Billy,a blue penguin that appeared on a beach in Christchurch,New Zealand.Spotted on November 29 at the slipway at Moncks Bay,near Sumner,in Christchurch,thelittle penguin immediately attracted a small crowd.Jeff Mein Smith saw the crowd while he was bicycling that afternoon,and he biked home to get his camera.When he returned to the scene,he found that the penguin had received a little sign,one that read“Hi,I'm waiting for my mum to come back.DOC(Department of Conservation) knows I'm here.Please leave me alone.Keep your dog away.Thanks,Billy the baby blue penguin.”Billy didn't move away from the sign.The DOC arrived later that afternoon to pick up Billy,though they were surprised to see it on the beach.“It's unusual for a blue penguin to be out in the open on the beach during the day,”Anita Spencer,a DOC senior ranger,told Stuff.Billy was taken to the Christchurch Penguin Rehabilitation Center after being retrieved from the beach.Volunteers believe the bird may actually be a female penguin,and is around 2 months old.The chick weighs a mere 550 grams,less than a standard basketball.A blue penguin should weigh around 900 grams at this age.Most little penguins grow up to weigh 1 kilogram.The center will help the little penguin gain some weight by feeding it fish juice,before it's set free into the ocean.24.Why can the world be frightening to a young penguin?A.It is a rare species.B.It faces potential danger.C.It is surrounded by the crowd.D.It is threatened by dogs.25.It can be inferred from the text that Billy .A.is a male penguinB.has expressed its thanksC.weighs less for its ageD.prefers living on the beach26.Which of the

be visited by the locals.C.It will be taken good care of.D.It will be fed with fruit juice.CNot only does the use of plastic water bottles hurt your wallet,it also increases pollution and wastes energy and water.Only 23% of all plastic in America ends up in a recycling bin,meaning over $1 billion worth of plastic is treated as rubbish a year.Recently,Skipping Rocks Lab has invented a kind of water bottle called Ooho.It is a convenient,clear water bottle that can either be drunk or eaten.To drink it,you can either peel off the membrane(薄膜) or tear a hole in the membrane with your teeth to pour the water into your mouth.To eat it,you simply put the whole bottle in your mouth.One problem the scientists have run into is how to ship lots of Ooho bubbles without arriving with a very wet truck.However,they have attempted to package units of individual bubbles together inside a larger and thicker membrane.It is targeting large outdoor events such as marathons,music festivals,and sporting events,where tons of plastic bottles are used,and frequently left behind as litter.And too much plastic is sure to do harm to the environment,which could account for their purpose of such a new invention.The team has been working for the past two years to develop the technology and materials needed to produce Ooho;they have recently applied for a patent for their new advancement.The price for an individual bubble or a unit of bubbles has not been set yet,but they cost about two cents to create a unit,which is cheaper than plastic bottles.It has appeared at events in London,San Francisco,Boston,at conferences,festivals,and so on.Ooho is catching many people's attention and has raised over $1 million and gained 1,000 investors in only three days.It is mostly being sold at events at the moment to keep the consumer's interest when the production machine is running.It is quickly making a rise,so keep an eye out this year for these bottles of the future.28.How is most plastic dealt with in America?A.It's sold.B.It's recycled.C.It's buried.D.It's wasted.29.Why did the team invent Ooho?A.To make a profit for a company.B.To protect the environment.C.To make people eat as they drink.D.To reduce the cost of the plastic bottle.30.What can we infer about Ooho from the text?A.It is easy and safe to ship it in large amounts.B.It has become popular since it began to be sold.C.It might be sold at a lower price than plastic bottles.D.It cost the team a lot of money to develop the technology.31.What does the author really want to say in the last paragraph?A.Ooho is to be a success in the future.B.Ooho is being supported by smart people.C.Ooho is taking the place of plastic bottles now.D.Ooho is being produced to attract more investors.DIt's not easy to feel like you're always under the spotlight being judged for each little mistake you make.Your mind is in an endless circle playing what you said and did over and over again.And you wish you had a time capsule to go back and make things change if you find mistakes.You fear what others will think about you and that they will reject and dislike you.You seek to be socially perfect.Academically,you work long endless hours just to make those excellent marks.Althoughmost would say“it's good to have high standards”,they have no idea about the internal hell you put yourself through to achieve perfection.If you come up to less than your desired goal,you will feel as though you have failed,but you're far from failing;you just don't see it that way.So instead you are telling yourself that you're stupid,and not smart.The pressure you place on yourself weighs you down and you wear the“not good enough”label each and every day.You not only have high standards for yourself but you also have them for others.If people don't perform up to your expectations then you will think them incompetent.This causes a lot of frustration because you can't trust anyone to get things right.So instead of being a team player you fly solo and try to do two or three jobs at once. Your unrealistic expectations cause you to criticize and judge others and that leads to problems in other aspects of your life.The attempt to be perfect is called perfectionism and it's damaging our emotional and mental health.We strive for perfection of our body,our performance,and our relationships.In a society that overstates mistakes,is it any wonder that so many young people attempt the impossible task of being perfect?We all have flaws,fears,and make mistakes,and that's perfectly OK.It's our imperfections that makes life interesting and they help us grow into a stronger and more adaptable person. We don't have to strive to achieve the impossible.We are designed to be perfectly imperfect.32.Where is the text most likely from?A.A diary. B.A novel.C.A magazine.D.A guidebook.33.Which of the following is a perfectionist most likely to agree?A.Nobody is perfect.B.Be generous with praise.C.There is no best, only better.D.A contented mind is an everlasting feast.34.What can we infer from Paragraph 4?A.The society is partly to blame for perfectionism.B.More and more people are tolerating mistakes.C.Many young people find it impossible to be perfect.D.It's unusual for a society to seek perfectionism nowadays.35.What does the author think of the imperfection?A.It's unbearable.B.It's part of our life.C.It deserves to be overcome.D.It does harm to our mental health.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.How to Form a Positive Reading HabitBooks are a source of joy, learnings insight and imagination. How we choose what to read says a lot about our preferences and passions. 31●Give old favorites a re-readThere is a particular kind of pleasure that comes with easing open a well-worn book, flipping through pages you have thumbed before, maybe multiple times. 32 It can bring you back to the time in your life when you last met those characters — You’re left with a rich reflection on who you were, who you are and where you turn for meaning and inspiration.●Learning something newIf you are a lover of novels, think about what your favourites have in common. 33 That can send you down a glorious rabbit hole of no-fiction books that will brighten your understanding of times, places and people who already live in your imagination.●34Book clubs are positive on so many levels, not least of which is that they open your mind to books you might not otherwise have considered. If you don’t belong to one — and even if you do— try to think about your reading choices in a public way. Ask your friends what they are reading and go with any recommendations that interest you.Give yourself permission to move onSometimes you just can’t get through a book — and that’s okay. Just like living positively means acknowledging when it’s time to let go of something that isn’t serving you well, reading positively means giving yourself permission to close a book that isn’t keeping you interested or inspired. 35 The positive pleasure of reading is indeed unending.A. Get social.B. Set up a book club.C. There are unlimited choices to turn to instead, after all.D. Here are some tips for making reading a positive habit in your life.E. Reading books that you enjoy helps maintain your habit and become a life-long reader.F. Re-reading favorite books can do more than bring you back into beloved worlds and stories.G. A particular time in history, region of the world or type of character may become a new theme.第三部分语言运用(共两节,满分30分)第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。
