高三英语最新时文阅读(A)China in flu fightAS China faces up to a battle against bird flu, the government announced a range of control measures it believes will bring the disease under control.H5N1 avian influenza, known commonly as bird flu, has killed at least 16 people across Asia and was confirmed (确定) in China on January 27. No human cases have been found in the mainland but, as of Friday, 13 of the country's 31 provinces, autonomous regions (自治区), and municipalities (直辖市) had reported the disease in poultry."It remains a difficult task for China to prevent and control the disease but the government is confident in the fight,"said Vice-Minister of Agriculture Liu Jian.He gave details of a range of measures designed to stop the disease spreading. Poultry within 3km of infected farms is to be killed and those within 5km vaccinated. Meanwhile, there will be constant monitoring (监控) and daily reports on the disease across the country, and increased production of bird flu vaccines.Among the 11 Asian countries and regions affected by bird flu in animals, only Viet Nam and Thailand have reported human cases. The people infected were reported to have caught the disease from poultry.While the World Health Organization (WHO) has said there is "no proof of human-to-human transmission"of bird flu, it admitted that two sisters who died of bird flu in Viet Nam may have caught it from their brother.The big fear is that the disease could combine with a human influenza virus (病毒) to create a deadly new disease that kills millions of people across the globe.Peter Cordingley, spokesman of the WHO Western Pacific Regional Office based in Manila, the Philippines, said that Asian countries affected by bird flu should introduce a more healthy way of raising and selling chickens.Many Asian farmers live closely with their animals and sell live chickens on the market. This greatly increases the possibility of humans being infected with bird flu."They have to completely change their lifestyle and attitude towards animals,"he said.How to stay healthy* Keep fit and well through regular exercise;* Avoid infected poultry and infected people;* Avoid eating raw (生的) or under-done poultry and eggs;* Make sure there is good ventilation (通风) in your home;* Cover your mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing;* Wash your hands frequently.1. Pre-reading: (Brainstorming)When you hear "bird flu", what words come to your mind?2. Translate the following expressions:1) 中国面临一场防控禽流感的大战。

WEEK 3 社会生活（2）一、阅读理解（共12小题；共24分）AA two-year-old boy accidentally shot and killed his mother after he reached into her purse at a northern Idaho Wal-Mart and her concealed(隐藏的) gun fired.Veronica J. Rutledge, 29, was staying with her son and three other children at that time. Rutledge was from Blackfoot in southeastern Idaho, and her family had come to the area to visit relatives.Rutledge had a concealed weapons permit. The young boy was left in a shopping cart, reached into his mother's purse and grabbed a small handgun, which discharged one time.Rutledge's husband was not in the store, when the shooting happened at about 10:20 a.m. The man arrived shortly after the shooting. All the children were taken to a relative's house.The shooting occurred in the Wal-Mart in Hayden, Idaho, a town about 40 miles northeast of Spokane, Washington State. The store closed and was not expected to reopen until Wednesday morning. Brooke Buchanan, a spokeswoman for Wal-Mart, said in a statement the shooting was a "very sad and tragic accident". "We are working closely with the local police department while they investigate what happened," Buchanan said.There do not appear to be reliable national statistics about the number of accidental fatalities involving children handling guns. In neighboring Washington State, a 3-year-old boy was seriously injured in November when he accidentally shot himself in the face in a home in Lake Stevens, about 30 miles (50 kilometers) north of Seattle. In April, a 2-year-old boy shot and killed his 11-year-old sister while the siblings played with a gun inside a Philadelphia home. Authorities said the gun was believed to have been brought into the home by the mother's boyfriend.Idaho lawmakers passed legislation earlier this year allowing concealed weapons on the state's public college and university campuses.Despite facing opposition from all eight of the state's university presidents, lawmakers sided with gun rights advocates who said the law would better uphold the Constitution.Under the law, gun holders are barred from bringing their weapons into dormitories or buildings that hold more than 1,000 people, such as stadiums or concert halls.1. The two-year-old boy shot and killed his mother .A. by chanceB. on purposeC. in angerD. for fun2. What was Veronica J. Rutledge doing when the shooting happened?A. She was visiting a relative.B. She was visiting a doctor.C. She was doing some shopping.D. She was driving a car.3. What do you know about Spokane?A. It is a small town in Idaho State.B. It lies to the southwest of Hayden.C. It lies to the northeast of Hayden.D. The killed mother lived there.4. According to the law of Idaho, bringing the weapons into concert halls is .A. legalB. illegalC. necessaryD. commonBDenmark is a small nation of about 5.5 million people. The United States is a melting pot of more than 315 million people. There is no doubt that Denmark and the United States are very different countries. Nonetheless, are there lessons that we can learn from Denmark?Today in the United States there is a massive amount of economic anxiety. Unemployment is too high and wages and income are too low. The gap between the very rich and everyone else is growing wider. However, in Denmark, social policies ensure that almost no one falls into economic despair. While it is difficult to become very rich in Denmark, no one is allowed to be poor.While millions of Americans are struggling to find affordable health care, health care in Denmark is universal and free of charge. Everybody is covered. The Danish health care system is popular, with patient satisfaction much higher than in our country.Danes understand that the first few years of a person's life are the most important in terms of intellectual and emotional development. In order to give strong support to expecting parents, mothers get four weeks of paid leave before giving birth. They get another 14 weeks of paid leave afterward. In the USA, working mothers enjoy no paid leave before and after giving birth and young working families search desperately for affordable child care.At a time when college education in the United States is increasingly unaffordable and the average college graduate leaves school more than $25,000 in debt, virtually all higher education in Denmark is free.In Denmark, adequate leisure and family time are considered an important part of having a good life. Every worker in Denmark is entitled to five weeks of paid vacation plus eleven paid holidays. And the United States is the only major country that does not guarantee its workers paid vacation time. Recently the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) has found that the Danish people rank among the happiest in the world among some 40 countries. However, America did not crack the top 10.The United States, in size, culture, and the diversity of our population, is a very different country from Denmark. Can we, however, learn some important lessons from them? You bet we can.5. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. How Can the US Catch up with Denmark?B. What Lessons Can the US Learn from Denmark?C. Where Does the US Differ from Denmark?D. How Did the US Become a Melting Pot?6. Which of the following is NOT true of the USA?A. Free health care.B. High unemployment.C. Low wages and income.D. Lower patient satisfaction.7. Before and after giving birth, a mother in Denmark can get .A. 10 weeks of unpaid leaveB. 10 weeks of paid leaveC. 18 weeks of unpaid leaveD. 18 weeks of paid leave8. We can learn that the passage is developed mainly by .A. quoting proverbsB. making comparisonsC. analyzing factsD. providing examplesCSometimes people simply decide to disappear for their own reasons. In police terms, they are referred to as the "maliciously(恶意地) missing". It's not uncommon for people to choose to vanish if they are facing a criminal trial or jail time. But people choose to disappear for many other reasons.Some disappear for insurance fraud(诈骗). A man named Raymond Roth disappeared while at a Long Island beach in July 2012; his son called 911 to report that his father had gotten lost in the waves.A search by the police found no sign of Roth, who was presumed drowned—until he was stopped for speeding about a week later in South Carolina. Roth was charged with fraud for trying to fake his own death for $400,000 in life insurance and sentenced to prison in April of this year.Some people vanish because they don't want to face their responsibilities. For example, in 2006 a Marine named Lance Hering disappeared during a hike in Colorado's Eldorado Canyon. Hering's disappearance led to one of the most extensive and expensive searches in Boulder County, eventually costing over $33,000. Hering reappeared two years later in Washington. He told police that he faked his disappearance to avoid returning to military duty in Iraq.Others simply decide that they want a change of their lifestyle. Pennsylvania woman Brenda Heist disappeared suddenly, last seen dropping her two children off at school. Heist reappeared in April 2013 in the Florida Keys, 11 years after she vanished. She told police that after she left her kids at school she had met a group of homeless people in a park. She decided to join them because she was tired of her family life. She claimed that she'd spent the previous decade living in a camper with a man she'd met, occasionally homeless, and doing odd jobs to earn money.These maliciously missing persons cases are especially difficult for the police because simply disappearing is not illegal; anyone can quit their job, move overnight, cut off ties with friends and family, and so on. Unless police can prove that a crime was committed, there's little they can do to hold people responsible for their actions.9. Raymond Roth was stopped when he was .A. swimmingB. shoppingC. drivingD. hiking10. Lance Hering disappeared on purpose to .A. escape a criminal trialB. avoid serving in the armyC. cheat life insuranceD. change his dull lifestyle11. Brenda Heist disappeared in .A. 2002B. 2003C. 2005D. 200812. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Where can maliciously missing persons be found?B. How can police cope with the maliciously missing?C. Why do people decide to disappear intentionally?D. What can people do to find the maliciously missing?二、完形填空（共20小题；共30分）Rafael stares at the math problem in front of him: 11x7.

Finns have a sauna at least once a week. Saunas can be found all over Finland: in offices, factories, sports centres and hotel; and 2/3 of the people have one in their house.Some of the basic rules for using the sauna include not eating or drinking. Also, you can't wear any clothes or swimsuits in the sauna. 34. Men and women visit the sauna separately, unless they're members of the same family.Saunas have existed for hundreds of years in Finland. In the past, Finns dug holes in the ground and put heated stones in them. When water was thrown on the hot stones, they gave off a vapour.35. The traditional type is the smoke sauna. We find smoke saunas mostly in rural areas. They're heated with burning wood. Once the room is hot enough, the fire is allowed to die and the room is ventilated(使通风) by letting the smoke out through a hole in the ceiling. 36. With these, you simply turn on an electric stove an hour before you want to go in. This is seen as the safest and easiest way to heat the room.37.

Still a livelihood for 1.5bn people, forests maintain local and regional ecosystems and, for the other 6.2bn, provide a—fragile and creaking—barrier against climate change. Now droughts, wildfires and other human-induced changes are compounding the damage from chainsaws. In the tropics, which contain half of the world’s forest biomass, tree-cover loss has accelerated by two-thirds since 2015; if it were a country, the shrinkage would make the tropical rainforest the world’s third-biggest carbon-dioxide emitter, after China and America.②Nowhere are the stakes higher than in the Amazon basin—and not just because it contains 40% of Earth’s rainforests and harbours 10-15% of the world’s terrestrial species. South America’s naturalwonder may be perilously close to the tipping-point beyond which its gradual transformation into something closer to steppe（没有树的草原）cannot be stopped or reversed, even if people lay down their axes. Brazil’s president, Jair Bolsonaro, is hastening the process—in the name, he claims, of development. The ecological collapse his policies may precipitate would be felt most acutely within his country’s borders, which encircle 80% of the basin—but would go far beyond them, too. It must be averted.③Humans have been chipping away at the Amazon rainforest since they settled there well over ten millennia ago. Since the 1970s they have done so on an industrial scale. In the past 50 years Brazil has given up17% of the forest’s original extent, more than the area of France, to road- and dam-building, logging, mining, soybean farming and cattle ranching. After a seven-year government effort to slow the destruction, it picked up in 2013 because of weakened enforcement and an amnesty(特赦) for past deforestation. Recession and political crisis further pared back the government’s ability to enforce the rules. Now Mr Bolsonaro has happily taken a buzz saw to them. Although congress and the courts have blocked some of his efforts to rob parts of the Amazon of their protected status, he has made it clear that rule-breakers have nothing to fear, despite the fact that he was elected to restore law and order. Because 70-80% of logging in the Amazon is illegal, the destruction has soared to record levels. Since he took office in January, trees have been disappearing at a rate of over two Manhattans a week.④The Amazon is unusual in that it recycles much of its own water. As the forest decreases, less recycling takes place. At a certain point, that causes more of the forest to wither so that, over a matter of decades, the process feeds on itself. Climate change is bringing the point closer every year as the forest heats up. Mr Bolsonaro is pushing it towards the edge. Pessimists fear that the cycle of runaway degradation may kick in when another 3-8% of the forest vanishes—which, under Mr Bolsonaro, could happen soon. There are hints the pessimists may be correct. In the past 15 years the Amazon has suffered three severe droughts. Fires are on the rise.⑤Brazil’s president dismisses such findings, as he does science more broadly. He accuses outsiders of hypocrisy—did rich countries not fell their own forests?—and, sometimes, of using environmental dogma as an excuse to keep Brazil poor. “The Amazon is ours,” the president thundered recently. What happens in the Brazilian Amazon, he thinks, is Brazil’s business.⑥Except it isn’t. A “dieback” would directly hurt the seven other countries with which Brazil shares the river basin. It would reduce the moisture channeled along the Andes as far south as Buenos Aires. If Brazil were damming a real river, not choking off an aerial one, downstream nations could consider it an act of war. As the vast Amazonian store of carbon burned and rotted, the world could heat up by as much as 0.1°C by 2100—not a lot, you may think, but the preferred target of the Paris climate agreement allows further warming of only 0.5°C or so.⑦Mr Bolsonaro’s other arguments are also flawed. Yes, the rich world has razed its forests. Brazil should not copy its mistakes, but learn from them instead as, say, France has, by reforesting while it still can. Paranoia about Western scheming is just that. The knowledge economy values the genetic information sequestered in the forest more highly than land or dead trees. Even if it did not, deforestation is not a necessary price of development. Brazil’s output of soybeans and beef rose between 2004 and 2012, when forest-clearing slowed by 80%. In fact, aside from the Amazon itself, Brazilian agriculture may be deforestation’s biggest victim. The drought of 2015 caused maize farmers in the central Brazilian state of Mato Grosso to lose a third of their harvest.⑧For all these reasons, the world ought to make clear to Mr Bolsonaro that it will not tolerate his vandalism（肆意破坏）. Food companies, pressed by consumers, should abandon soybeans and beefproduced on illegally logged Amazonian land, as they did in the mid-2000s. Brazil’s trading partners should make deals contingent on its good behavior. The agreement reached in June by the EU and Mercosur, a South American trading bloc of which Brazil is the biggest member, already includes provisions to protect the rainforest. It is overwhelmingly in the parties’ interest to enforce them. So too for China, which is anxious about global warming and needs Brazilian agriculture to feed its livestock. Rich signatories(签约国) of the Paris agreement, who pledged to pay developing ones to plant carbon-consuming trees, ought to do so. Deforestation accounts for 8% of global greenhouse-gas emissions but attracts only 3% of the aid earmarked for combating climate change.⑨If there is a green shoot in Mr Bolsonaro’s scorched-earth tactics towards the rainforest, it is that they have made the Amazon’s plight harder to ignore—and not just for outsiders. Brazil’s agriculture minister urged Mr Bolsonaro to stay in the Paris agreement. Unchecked deforestation could end up hurting Brazilian farmers if it leads to foreign boycotts of Brazilian farm goods. Ordinary Brazilians should press their president to reverse course. They have been blessed with a unique planetary heritage, whose value is life-sustaining as much as it is commercial. Letting it perish would be a needless catastrophe.While-class activities:Activity 1: Structure analysis （matching）Para 1 current situationPara 2-7 what to do nextPara 8-9 the importance of forestsActivity 2: Reading comprehension1.What does ‘hastening’ mean in paragraph 2?A.holding backB. slowing downC. speeding upD. taking off2.What can we infer from paragraphs 3 and 4?A.The congress of Brazil didn’t try its best to stop the president’s plan.B.It is the recession and political crisis that helped the rainforest get better protected.C.The future of the Amazon is likely to be bright if another president is elected.D.The Brazil’s president should largely be to blame for the serious situation of the Amazon.3.

Several brands sponsored the project.His goal, he told the local press, was to ascend升高more than 1,500 meters (nearly one mile) to prove that the Earth is not round but shaped like a Frisbee.His spokesman Darren Shuster told the Los Angeles Times, however, that the flat Earth claim was merely to drum up publicity for the launch."I don't think he believed it," Shuster said. "He did have some governmental conspiracy theories. But don't confuse it with that flat Earth thing. That was a PR stunt we dreamed up."Images of the launch, carried out in the desert in front of a crowd of horrified witnesses, circulated on social media.A parachute can be seen tearing away from the rocket moments after the launch, as the spacecraft loops downward and crashes several hundred meters from the launch site near Barstow, 110 miles (180 kilometers) northeast of Los Angeles."It was always his dream to do this launch and Science Channel was there to chronicle记录his journey," said the channel, which filmed the launch for a new series called Homemade Astronauts.Dressed in a red-and-black space suit and posing in front of the rocket, Hughes had announced plans for the launch on the Discovery Channel.Explaining why he would do it, he said, "Just to convince people that they can do things extraordinary with their lives... Maybe it will inspire someone else."5. What is the purpose of Hughes’s launch ?A. To prove that people can do things extraordinary with their livesB. To prove some governmental conspiracy theoriesC.

Hughes finished the project all by himself.C (字数：284)Growing up as the son of a charcutier食品商人, Michel Roux had learned whether it was Monday or Tuesday from the smell of boudin or andouillettes on the stairs; and his earliest memory was of beating up egg yolks which, as if by magic, thickened in the hot stock into sauce酱for his mother's blanquette of veal小牛肉.To run just one restaurant with Albert would have been good enough. And it was hard work: so hard that he was hardly ever at home, and his first wife divorced him. Though he knew almost no English, he still had to take his turn at front-of-house while Albert was manning the stove.They cooked and played host in alternate weeks, knowing well that if they tried to share service there might beblood. Both of them came up with ideas, but his strength lay in details. Precision and patience were a pastrycook's skills. It mattered to him, for instance, that commis waiters should not talk to the customers and that diners should wear ties (he almost refused entry to the Rolling Stones when they turned up without them). Every ingredient原料had its right place, too, and as each arrived he would taste it, unseasoned, to judge exactly where it might sit within a dish.When he and Albert produced cookery books, spreading the revolution to ordinary British kitchens, he, being a perfectionist, wrote the words, just as on their cookery shows he was the suave文雅的and particular main presenter. And in 1986 it made sense to split their interests, so that while his brother went bustling喧闹的after new business he departed for Bray, to run the whitewashed美化former pub on the Thames they had opened a decade before.8. From the passage we can learn that____ .A. Michel Roux beat up egg yolks by magic,B. Michel Roux didn’t like the Rolling StonesC. Michel Roux disagreed with Albert in details.D. Michel Roux had a really acute sense of smell and was a perfectionist.9. What would be the most appropriate title of the passage?A. The Perfectionist: Michel RouxB. The Economist: Michel RouxC. Son of a charcutierD. Run a restaurant with Albert10. When did Albert leave Michel Roux?A. In 1986B. When his first wife divorced him.C. A decade beforeD. When he and Albert produced cookery books七选五D（字数:385 ）Lixia, the Beginning of SummerLixia, also called the Beginning of Summer, is the 7th out of the 24 solar terms in China, which happens usually on May 5,6 or 7. _____ 11_____.

People use black tea leaves or walnut shells to boil eggs till they turn dark red. _____ 12_____, therefore, eating red eggs on this day symbolizes a kind of protection of heart and also provides people with enough strength to survive the coming hot summer days. Children usually hang nettings over their neck and put eggs in the netting. They strike the eggs head (rounded end) with head, tail (pointed end) with tail to see whose egg breaks first. Playing with eggs can help children stay away from summer fever._____ 13_____, which was very popular in the old days. People use red, yellow, black, green beans and peas, together with sticky rice to make a bowl of five-color rice. This color-rich rice will bring people good harvests in the summer.Weighing people is a traditional custom which dates from the Three Kingdoms Period. _____ 14_____. If the child was heavier than the previous year, it meant the child was becoming healthier and parents wouldn’t have any worries for the hot summer.After Lixia, the temperature is gradually rising and hot weather can be a strain on your heart. As a result, people may easily feel tired during summer days. Having good rests becomes very important. Do not take up violent sports but do some slow activities. _____ 15_____. Besides, eating more fruits and vegetables and less hot and dry food can help tonify滋补your liver and kidneys.A. People used to weigh their children on this dayB.

阅读短文并回答问题A solar tree is a structure resembling a tree that generates solar energy using photovoltaic panels（太阳能光伏板）. It helps solve an urgent global challenge: Replacing greenhouse gas-emitting energy sources like oil and gas with renewable energy. But the power generation potential of solar trees is relatively limited, and their primary purpose is to raise public awareness about renewable energy by getting people to notice and interact（互动）with solar energy in new ways.Solar trees generally have a firm metal, plastic, or stone base that extends up and out into “branches” on which solar panels are mounted. Beyond this basic structure, there is great diversity in the design of solar tree units. The solar tree’s photovoltaic “leaves”absorb sunlight, converting it into electricity that is conducted down through the trunk-like central pillar of the structure to an inside battery. Many designs feature rotating（旋转的）panels that can move throughout the day in order to obtain the greatest amount of sunlight.Solar trees help power homes, businesses, and public services. They can create shade to help reduce the urban heat island effect and provide shelter in severe weather such as rainstorms and heatwaves, creating greater urban resilience in the face of climate change. They also enhance public spaces, providing charging stations, and powering streetlights.In comparison to other kinds of ground-mounted solar panel devices, solar trees don’t require much land. They make solar energy generation possible in land-scarce areasthat can’t support vast solar arrays, as well as places that lack sufficient rooftop space for panels. However, solar panels are much cheaper than solar trees at present and have far greater energy generation capacity. Therefore, present solar tree designs often serve as a supplemental source rather than as a primary energy source.At present, solar trees aren’t designed as large-scale solar projects, which limits their ability to contribute to the low-carbon energy transition. Still, their varied designs are appealing. This makes solar trees effective at displaying and thereby educating people about solar energy, and promoting a business or organization’s commitment to renewable energy.1. What is the main purpose of building solar trees?A. To beautify the urban environment.B. To draw public attention to solar energy.C. To replace non-renewable energy resources.D. To provide charging services in emergencies.2. What do we know about a solar tree?A. It stores energy in its own battery.B. It can adjust its height automatically.C. It is made of environmentally friendly materials.D. It transforms sunlight into electricity by its metal base.3. What does the third paragraph mainly talk about?A. The design features of solar trees.B. The ways of saving energy in cities.C. The benefits of solar trees to humans.D. The difficulties of promoting solar trees.4. What advantage do solar trees have over other ground-mounted solar panel devices?A. They occupy much less land.B. They are cheaper to manufacture.C. They are more effective in generating energy.D. They can work in various weather conditions.答案：BACA生词1. gas-emitting adj. 排放气体的2. pillar n. 柱子，桥墩（尤指兼作装饰的）3. resilience n. 恢复力；适应力4. array n. 阵列语块1. solar energy 太阳能2. renewable energy 再生能源3. solar panels 太阳能板4. throughout the day 整天5. public services 公共服务6. urban heat island effect 城市热岛效应7. severe weather 恶劣天气8. charging stations 充电站9. in comparison to 与……相比10. contribute to 有助于；对……做贡献知识拓展urban heat island effect城市热岛效应是指城市因大量的人工发热、建筑物和道路等高蓄热体及绿地减少等因素，造成城市“高温化”，城市中的气温明显高于外围郊区的现象。

新高考英语时文阅读高三专版（含答案解析与原文翻译）AI was already a hand washer. And since the spread of coronavirus, it’s been kicked into overdrive. I don’t consider myself panicked about COVID-19, although I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t concerned. I live in an enormous city, packed with people, including countless travelers, and I understand how easily a contagious virus spreads. And hand washing may help us to keep it like that. The hard part has to do with the duration. “Scrub your hands for 20 seconds,”the CDC website warns. “Need a timer? Hum the ‘Happy Birthday’song from beginning to end twice.”The turning point came with a slight, unconscious tweak on the lyrics. After a few days, I added three words to the routine: “And many more.”That’s the way we do “Happy Birthday”in my family. These days, of course, those habitual words have particular resonance. What I am doing, after all, when I add “and many more”is making a plea: Let us stay safe and alive. “Its meaning,”writes Rodriguez, “is something like I pray it may be so.”I am an adult, aware of random chance and uncertainty. I’ve come to recognize that insecurity, chaos even, is the way of the world. In the face of an epidemic stretching toward a pandemic, I have one eye on living as if there will be no exceptional disruptions, and the other on preparing for catastrophe. What I’m saying is that I do not generally rely on magical thinking.Now I am consciously singing “and many more”when I fulfill the CDC’s instructions about how to wash my hands. I offer it to you as well, this coping mechanism, this precaution, this projection of a happy ending, which is, of course, a whisper of faith, not in divine intervention (神的干预) but in our ability to care for one another and ourselves.1. What is the attitude of the author toward the COVID-19?A. Panic.B. Concerned.C. Happy.D. Pessimistic.2. How long does it take to sing the ‘Happy Birthday’song once?A. 10s.B. 20s.C. 30s.D. 40s.3. What is the meaning of the added “and many more”these days?A. The author wants to sing the song in a creative way.B. The author blesses herself happy birthday.C. The author is to pray to be safe and live well.D. The author is showing off her great voice.4. Which of the following can be used to describe the author?A. Being full of magical thinking.B. Being ignorant.C. Being insightful and optimistic.D. Being a good singer.【答案】BACC【解析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者介绍了自己独特的洗手方法，以及疫情期间的感想，并鼓励人们也采用同样的方式洗手。

高考时文阅读(passages 1-2)Passage 1 Giant leap for ChinaA few days ago, he was just Colonel (上校) Yang; few people knew his name or recognized his face. But last Thursday, when he came back to the earth after a 21-hour trip to space, Yang Liwei's smile was seen across the world above the magic words: "China's first spaceman".The 38-year-old astronaut was sent into space at 9 a.m. last Wednesday by China's Shenzhou V spacecraft, which orbited the earth 14 times. He landed safely at 6:23 a.m. the next day, making China the third country to successfully send a person into space, after the former Soviet Union and the US.Yang was satisfied with his job. "I have seen many landing scenes before on video, and I think ours was one of the most successful," he said on a special plane to Beijing after landing.Born into an ordinary family in Liaoning Province, he became a pilot in the Chinese Air Force in 1987, spending 1,350 hours in the air. He joined the Chinese space programme 11 years later.While in space, Yang recorded everything he saw as well as showing China's national flag and the United Nations' flag to the people watching on TV at home. He also ate a meal of diced chicken and fried rice, before taking a 3-hour nap. The whole project went according to plan, but space exploration is not as easy as it seems.Anyone who saw the destruction of the US space shuttle Columbia in February this year will know that Yang took a great risk.He experienced extremely high temperatures, while the gravitational forces (重力) on takeoff and landing were strong enough to force tears from his eyes.He has spent five years training to become a spaceman."I eat all of my meals at the space programme's dinning room and have never been able to take my son to kindergarten," he said. "I've never met his teachers."But becoming China's first spaceman has made all the effort worthwhile."When I boarded the spacecraft for the first time, I couldn't help feeling excited," he said. "I decided that I had to fly it."To Chinese people, Yang is now a hero. One visitor to a Xinhua news agency online forum (网上论坛) said: "Yang's trip is a giant leap forward for China."Officials say the next Shenzhou will be launched by 2005. China also plans to develop spacewalking and a space lab.1. What is the main idea of the story?A. China's first manned space flight.B. A hero with great courageC. The first Chinese man in spaceD. How Yang Liwei became China's first spaceman2. How long did each of Yang's orbits take on average?A. 1 hour.B. 1.5 hours.C. 6 hours.D. The story didn't mention.3. Why did the writer mention the gravitational forces on takeoff and landing?A. To stress the hardship and the spaceman had to experience.B. Because it was a very special experience for any spacemen.C. To stress how much training he had to do to prepare for the flightD. To show that Yang is lucky.4. Why did the writer use "giant leap" in the title?A. Because the space flight marked China's great progress in the field of space exploration.B. Because Neil Armstrong said it was a "giant leap" for mankind when he first set foot on the moon.C. Because the space flight was a huge success.D. Both A and B.Passage 2 Chinese fourth unmanned spacecraft into spaceChina blasted its fourth unmanned craft into space on Monday in what is likely a final test before sending its first astronaut into orbit around earth, state media said.The Shenzhou IV, or "Divine Ship," took off from its launch center in the northwestern province of Gansu early Monday morning and had already settled into its course around Earth, the official Xinhua news agency and newspapers reported. "The successful launch of the Shenzhou IV has laid a solid foundation for China to send Chinese astronauts into space," the China Daily quoted an official at the Beijing Aerospace Command and Control Center as saying. Like its predecessors, the craft will circle Earth once every 90 minutes. The vessel, which boasts a complete system needed for manned flight, will fly in space for a few days before landing.China's space program is a test of national pride as the country, growing fast after two decades of market-oriented reforms, seeks a place on the world stage alongside great powers. China aims to become the third nation in the world capable of putting people in space. The Soviet Union first accomplished the feat in 1961, with the United States following the next year. The country started its manned flight program in 1992, the Xinhua reported, adding astronauts had entered the Shenzhou IV to train for missions for the first time. Xinhua quoted Su Shuangning, a leading official for the manned flight program, as saying Chinese astronauts, all with fighter pilot backgrounds, were absolutely capable of making their maiden voyage to outer space.1. In ________ China started its manned flight program.A. 1961B.1962C.1992D.20002. Which nations succeeded in carrying people into space?A. the Soviet Union and ChinaB. the United States and ChinaC. the former Soviet Union and the United StatesD. Russia3. Which is NOT true about "the Shenzhou IV" according to this report?A. It's Chinese fourth unmanned spacecraft launched into space.B. It is likely to be a final test before launching a manned craft.C. It was successfully launched early Monday morning.D. It did not boast a system needed for manned flight.4. The Last sentence in bold implies all of the following but _________.A. The leading official is quite sure that China is capable of sending manned crafts into space.B. The astronauts who will take the first trip into space were picked out among the fighter pilots.C. Chinese astronauts have made several voyages to outer space before.D. Xinhua news agency quoted impersonally what Su Shuangning , the leading official for the manned flight program, said.keys:Passage 1 1. C 2. B 3. A 4. D中国载人航天飞行取得圆满成功，这一消息令国人振奋。

It was already struggling in the country after chemical residue was found in a small portion of its chicken supply late last year."This will set them back a little bit. If those (bird flu casualty) numbers go up, then the impact could be longer," said Edward Jones analyst Jack Russo.Sales at Yum's China restaurants open at least one year fell 13 percent in March, more than the 10 percent average drop expected by analysts polled by Consensus Matrix.The March results included a 16 percent drop at KFC and a 4 percent rise at Pizza Hut.The company plans to educate consumers, as it has done in the past, that properly cooked chicken is safe to eat, Yum said in Wednesday's filing.In February, KFC's sales were flat in China, which had given analysts some hope a turnaround was already taking hold.While the March results were disappointing, they may show that the effects of the timing shift of the all-important Chinese New Year holiday on January and February were bigger than expected."I don't think we should interpret this, necessarily, as a step back," Sanford Bernstein research analyst Sara Senatore said.Yum shares fell more than 2 percent to $65.20 in extended trading following the report. Yum's stock traded around $72 in late March before reports of the first deaths from the novel strain of avian flu.。
新高考高三英语时文阅读精选（含答案解析）
新高考高三英语时文阅读精选（含答案解析）新高考高三英语时文阅读精选（含答案解析）AClimate protection and public health have striking similarities. The benefits of both can be enjoyed by everyone, even by individuals who do not contribute to the collective efforts to address these problems. If climate change slows down, both drivers of gas-guzzlers and electric cars will benefit — although the former did not help in climate efforts. Similarly, if the spread of Coronavirus is halted, individuals who refused to wash their hands, as well as the ones who washed them assiduously, will enjoy the restored normal life.Most countries have gotten their acts together, although behind time, on Coronavirus. Citizens also seem to be following the advice of public health officials. Could then the Coronavirus policy model be applied to climate change? We urge caution because these crises are different, which means that policies that worked well for Coronavirus might not be effective for climate change.Climate change is the defining crisis of our times. Floods, hurricanes, forest fires, and extreme weather events have become more frequent and severe over the years. Although climate change generates passionate discussions in big cities and university campuses, there is inadequate public call for immediate action. Some types of decarbonization policies are certainly in place. However, carbon-intensive lifestyles continue. This policy lethargy (无精打采) and behavioral inertia (惰性) are due to many reasons, including concerted opposition by the fossil fuel industry to deep decarbonization. But there are otherreasons as well. Climate change is cumulative and does not have a quick onset. Its effects are not always immediate and visible. Many individuals probably do not see a clear link between their actions and the eventual outcome. This reduces the willingness to alter lifestyles and tolerate personal sacrifices for the collective good.In contrast, Coronavirus is forcing an immediate policy response and behavioral changes. Its causality is clear and its onset quick. Lives are at stake, especially in western countries. The stock markets are tanking, and the economy is heading towards a recession. Politicians recognize that waffling can lead to massive consequences, even in the short-term. Corona-skeptic President Trump has reversed course and declared a national emergency.1. What does the writer think climate protection and public health have in common?A. They can’t be influenced by what people do.B. They only benefit those who contribute to them.C. They usually punish those who do harm to them.D. They offer benefits to everyone whatever people do.2. Which word can take the place of the underlined word “assiduously”?A. Attentively.B. Absolutely.C. Abundantly.D. Alternatively.3. Why are people unwilling to change their carbon-intensive lifestyles?A. Because they think the climate is none of their business.B. Because they think what they do has no effect on theclimate.C. Because they can’t see the quick result from what they do to the climate.D. Because they don’t clearly know how their lifestyles influence the climate.4. Which of the following does the author disagree with?A. President Trump had a skeptic attitude to coronavirus at first.B. Compared with climate change, coronavirus has a quick result.C. People are willing to change their lifestyles because of coronavirus.D. Many countries have responded to coronavirus quickly and effectively.BRobots, Not Humans, Are the New Space Explore rs “Since the days of Apollo, the greatest adventures in space have been these robots that have gone all over the solar system,” says Emily Lakdawalla, a self-described planetary evangelist①at the Planetary Society.By “these robots,” Lakdawalla means the various robotic probes that have flown past planets, moons and asteroids②—orbiting③some, landing on others.Millions of people around the world have watched with delight as the six-wheeled rovers④have trundled across the Martian surface, snapping pictures and taking selfies.At Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C., Matthew Shindell says visitors make a point of coming to the planetary exhibit in a gallery tucked into the west end of the museum.Shindell is the museum’s planetary science curator⑤.

E.（语法填空）月亮上的水A字数： 293Some Texans are trying to relieve the loneliness and isolation that many elderly Americans are feeling during the coronavirus pandemic by creating safe "hugging booths."Amber Crenshaw and her husband Steve Crenshaw own a business called Handle With Care and work with Unlimited Care Cottages, an assisted living facility. Amber said she and her husbanddesigned and built the hugging booths after one of the nurses suggested the idea."The residents have been, just so filled with joy," Amber said. "It was one of ourresident's birthdays. We were able to set the booth up for their birthday, and familymembers were able to come in and give birthday hugs. It has really lifted the spirits ofthe assisted living residents."Buck Buckholtz, the owner of Unlimited Care Cottages, where the hugging boothshave been used, said that the families were also excited.He said, "The families, there was a pretty quick response of, 'When can you bring it to this house? When can you bring it to this house? When are we going to have one?"Amber said that she and her husband designed it to fit into a standard door without gaps, and built it with materials that coronavirus cannot transmit through, allowing family members to hug each other safely."Just the power of touch is so important because it's been since March since these family members and the residents at the homes have been able to touch and hug," she said. "Through this, we've been able to create an opportunity for them to reach out and have a touch.

This reinforces the message that we should aim to maximise our positive emotions and avoid our negative ones' Society needs to change its attitude on depression if the disorder is to be tackled effectively, Dr. Bastian hinted.He added that people have become so used to not showing signs of vulnerability脆弱due to social media being used to celebrate achievements.For the study published in the journal Depression and Anxiety, the researchers assessed 112 depressed patients.

The handful of guests watched in awe —and a little trepidation惊恐— as the majestic animal, who appeared to be searching for a tasty morsel, calmly explored the various areas of the restaurant. Fortunately for the humans, nothing on the “menu” seemed to catch the leopard’s fancy, and it left as abruptly as it had arrived.Erika Wiese, who captured the footage of the leopard walking through the restaurant, told Kruger Sightings that she and the other guests were alerted to the predator’s arrival by the alarm calls sounded by surrounding vervet monkeys. Also known as savanna monkeys, the smart mammals communicate the presence of each of their four-known predators — leopards, eagles, baboons, and pythons — with a unique call, allowing other members of their species to respond accordingly. For example, the short tonal call signaling a leopard is nearby cause the monkeys to scramble into trees, while the low-pitched grunts, indicating the presence of eagles, warns them to keep an eye on the skies.The leopard, however, was not interested in the monkeys, but instead appeared to be in search of a bushbuck, or African antelope, that it had been stalking in a nearby riverbed earlier in the day. Wiese says, “The sighting ended with the leopard strolling calmly away from the deck area and out of sight towards the bushbuck who you can hear alarm calling at the end.”Wiese says that thanks to the lodge’s well-trained staff, who are experienced at dealing with wild animal visits, and the strict safety rules in place, the guests all remained calm. She gushes, “We felt complete awe, reverence, respect, and gratitude. What a rare experience to have such an encounter with a leopard. The situation proved that wildlife and people can live and interact with each other in harmony and respect.”Located adjacent to Kruger National Park in South Africa, the Sabi Sand Game Reserve is home to a wide variety of animals, including over 144 mammal, 500 bird, 30 amphibian, and 110 reptile species. However, the area’s main attraction is the presence of the Big Five — lions, leopards, elephants, buffaloes, and rhinos — which roam the game park in abundance.7. What is the general idea of the text?A. Wildlife and people can live and interact with each other in harmony and respect.B. Savanna monkeys can communicate the presence of each of their four-known predators.C. Guests at south African Lodge get a surprise visit from a leopard.D. The lodge’s well-trained staff are experienced at dealing with wild animal visits.8. Which of the following is NOT right?A. Visitors at the Singita Ebony Lodge often encounter with a leopard.B. The leopard was not interested in the monkeys.C. The leopard was seen walking calmly away from the deck area towards the bushbuckD. Kruger National Park is close to the Sabi Sand Game Reserve.9. What did the leopard come here for ?A. To explore the various areas of the restaurant.B. To be in search of a bushbuck, or African antelopeC.

An Israeli company thinks it can help, using smart sensors mounted on workplace ceilings.PointGrab developed its technology before the pandemic to help workspace managers optimize优化how employees use office space. About the size of a smoke alarm, the sensors can record the exact number and location of people in buildings including offices, hotels and restaurants.One of the company's first clients was Deloitte, which installed the system at its flagship London office last year. PointGrab's sensors were connected to screens in the building toshow the availability of desks and shared areas in real time. PointGrabCEO Doron Shachar says it was one of a range of innovations that helpedDeloitte fit 30% more people into 3% less space.Now PointGrab has adapted the technology so the sensors can alsomonitor social distancing by keeping track of how far apart people are,and whether they're traveling in one direction around a building.Workspace managers can set up alerts for when two people are closerthan two meters for more than 30 seconds, for example.The sensors have been included in the "six feet office" concept created by real estate房地产services company Cushman and Wakefield to encourage employees to practice social distancing. They are currently being used in this way at a university in the Netherlands, and at an innovation hub in Belgium.While the social distancing innovation is new, PointGrab has deployed more than 10,000 sensors for workspace optimization, including in the offices of Coca-Cola, Facebook and Dell.Workers might not like the idea of being monitored, but PointGrab says no images or identifying features are recorded. Instead, each employee is represented as an anonymous无名的dot on a dashboard."The sensor does not violate people's privacy," Shachar says. "This is extremely important in the workspace."12.When did PointGrab develop the technology?A. during novel coronavirusB. soon after novel coronavirus broke outC. before novel coronavirus broke outD. last year13. The technology was first used by Deloitte to ____ .A. optimize how employees use office spaceB. keep track of how far apart employees areC. violate people's privacyD. encourage employees to practice social distancing14. Which of the following is NOT right?A.the offices of Coca-Cola, Facebook and Dell also installed smart sensorsB. Images and identifying features can be recorded clearly.C. The sensor does not violate people's privacyD. The using of PointGrab's sensors helped Deloitte fit 30% more people into 3% less space.15. What is the main idea of the text?A. Smart sensors will help maintain social distancingB. Getting reluctant workers back into the office is not easy.C. How an Israeli company develop smart sensorsD.

最新高考英语阅读理解(时文广告)基础练习题及解析
最新高考英语阅读理解(时文广告)基础练习题及解析一、高中英语阅读理解时文广告类1．Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.Once again DC Comics and Warner Bros. have divided fans and critics over their latest superhero film.There had been worrying news about Justice League in the months before its release, with a lot of reshoots of scenes, a new director being brought in to finish the film after original director Zack Snyder's tragic loss of his daughter and, of course, a lot of talk about Ben Affleck's future in the role of Batman.Some people are saying that Justice League is another big disappointment, that it could have been incredible and instead fails to really entertain. Others say that Warner Bros. have finally got it right and that the future for the League looks bright.My opinion lies somewhere in the middle. The film was by no means a disappointment: it was exciting, funny and a lot of fun to watch. There's something special about watching the heroes from your childhood brought to life on the big screen and maybe that is affecting my opinion.However, I will say that a lot of work needs to be done if the producer wants to make a great success. Although the film was good, it was obvious which scenes had been reshot and how the characters had been changed. I also have to mention the several scenes in which the special effects were very badly done; these are the kinds of problems that you don't expect to see in a film with such a big budget.Another point to add is that it is good to see the producer making Superman slightly a brighter character and adding some jokes to the plot to keep things fun. But the producer must be careful not to make the mistake that another film producer—here, not mentioning the name—is coming very close to doing: turning all of the films into bright and colorful shows and losing a lot of seriously good stories.In the end, Justice League is not a perfect film but it is definitely not a terrible one. A lot of work is still to be done but I hope that DC does not completely lose its darker side.（1）Before the release of Justice League, many people showed their ______.A. pity for the director, Zack SnyderB. concern about the film's qualityC. higher expectation of the new directorD. support for the actor, Ben Affleck（2）According to the author, what's special about Justice League?A. It advocates social justice.B. It brings lots of fun to the audience.C. It has some brave heroes.D. It brings back childhood memories.（3）In Paragraph 5 the author mainly wants to express his ______.A. views on the film's weaknessB. advice to the film's directorC. love for the filmD. expectation of the film's sequels（4）The author mentioned another film producer to ______.A. stress the importance of fun in a filmB. show Justice League's lack of a serious plotC. serve as a warning to the producer of Justice LeagueD. set an example for the producer of Justice League【答案】（1）B（2）D（3）A（4）C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇应用文，介绍了作者对《正义联盟》这部电影的看法。
(英语)高三必备英语阅读理解(时文广告)技巧全解及练习题(含答案)及解析
（英语）高三必备英语阅读理解(时文广告)技巧全解及练习题(含答案)及解析一、高中英语阅读理解时文广告类1．阅读理解A Christmas Carol was written by Charles Dickens. The first 6,000 copies of the book were sold out in a week. And the book has inspired many plays and movies. The first play was put on in 1844. The first two movies were silent films made in 1901 and 1908. Since then, the story has been remade more than 60 times for television and cinema. What makes such a tale so attractive? Audiences have always loved a good plot, a villain(反面人物) who harms other people or breaks the law, and the ending of right over wrong. The book offers all three.The book tells the story of a man named Ebenezer Scrooge. He is mean and cruel(残忍的) to his clerk and turns away his only living relative. One night, Scrooge is visited by three spirits. The first shows scenes from Scrooge's youth that led to this present state. The second takes him to the homes of his clerk and his nephew. Here Scrooge sees that people can be happy without lots of money. The spirit also shows him the desperate poor people of London. The third spirit shows Scrooge will die alone, and no one will care if he continues to live as he has. At last the message is understood, and Scrooge repents. He becomes generous and caring to all around him, especially to his clerk's sick son, Tiny Tim.Every year, thousands of people watch A Christmas Carol. Why? They may be touched by its lessons on the true meanings of wealth and happiness. They may enjoy the special effects and feelings or watching every year may be just a habit. Viewers never seem to grow tired of the old miser(守财奴), Scrooge, and his dramatic message of hope and change.（1）What do we know about the book A Christmas Carol?A.It was written in the early 19th century.B.Dickens completed the book in a week.C.It has been adapted for cinema and television.D.It didn't attract readers when published for the first time.（2）The third spirit shows Scrooge .A.where he will die and who will care about himB.how others care about his present lifeC.when and how he will die aloneD.what his future life will be like（3）The underlined part "Scrooge repents" probably means .A.Scrooge feels sorry for what he has doneB.Scrooge does things as he did beforeC.Scrooge is angry with the three spiritsD.Scrooge gives the three spirits a hand【答案】（1）C（2）D（3）A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇应用文，叙述了狄更斯的出名作品《圣诞颂歌》，介绍了它的主要内容。

Background information
