2020届湖北省孝感高中高三英语模拟试卷及答案
2020届湖北省孝感高中高三英语模拟试卷及答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AAmid the coronavirus outbreak, the U. S. Department of Homeland Security recommends having at least a two - week supply of water and food.PotatoesShelf life：2 to 5 weeks if stored in a cool, dry, dark placeYukon Gold, red, and fingerling potatoeswill last from two to three weeks. Larger white potatoes can last for three to five weeks. Sweet potatoes have about the same shelf life. Don't store them next to onions, however. The two might go together well in cooking, but raw, each gives off gases and moisture that might cause the other to spoil faster.Tea※Shelf life：6 to 12 months past "sell - by" dateDried tea leaves, whether loose (in a sealed container) or in teabags (in an unopened box) can easily last a year or more if they' re not subjected to damp or humidity. However, the tea does tend to lose flavor over time.Peanuts● Shelf life：1 to 2 monthsPeanuts in their shell, especially when kept cool and dry, are perfectly happy in the cupboard for as long as two months.Canned fruits and vegetables● Shelf life：1 to 2 years past "sell - by” dateCanning is an extremely efficient means of preserving food. Generally speaking, if canned foods aren't subjected to extreme heat, their contents should stay good for two years or more. Be aware, however, of dented cans or those with swollen tops, which may indicate the presence of bacteria inside.1. Which can go bad faster if stored with onions?A. Potatoes.B. Tea.C. Peanuts.D. Canned fruits and vegetables.2. What is special about tea?A. The flavor of tea can always remain the same.B. Tea leaves are better to be preserved in an open jar.C. Tea leaves should be kept away from the state of being wet.D. The maximum length of time that tea can be stored is 6 months.3. What may shorten the "sell - by” date of canned foods ?A. Shapes of cans.B. Categories of foods.C. Decline of the temperature.D. Exposure to high temperature.BBrown cows may not actually make chocolate milk, but pink silkworms（蚕）do produce pink silk, a team of scientists has discovered. To see if they could produce pre-dyed silk-silk that comes color1 ed, straight from the source-the team fed ordinary silkworms mulberry（桑树）leaves that had been sprayed（喷洒）with fabric（织物）dyes（染色剂）. Out of seven tested dyes, only one worked, producing a thread that reminded me of pink-dyed hair.And yes, the worms themselves take on some color1 before they produce silk. Their color1 ful diets did not affect their growth, the team, which included engineers and biologists from the CSIR-National Chemical Laboratory in India, reports in the journalACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering. (The researchers didn't look too deeply into how the dyes affected the silkworms' health. After all, silkworms die when people harvest their silk.)The team made dyeing silk this way because color1 ing fabric normally uses large amounts of fresh water. The water gets polluted with dangerous chemicals in the process, requiring costly treatment before factories can send it back into waterways. Dyeing silk directly by feeding silkworms would avoid those water-washing steps. Scientists are just starting to study this idea. However, it remains to be seen if it's commercially successful. In this experiment, the Indian team tested seven dyes, which are cheap and popular in the industry.The scientists found different dyes moved through silkworms' bodies differently. Some never made it into the worms' silk at all. Others color1 ed the worms and their silk but the color1 disappears before the silk is turned into fabric. Only one dye, named "direct acid fast red", showed up in the final, washed silk threads. By the time it made it there, it was a pleasant, light pink.4. The text is most probably a(n) ________.A. science reportB. tourist guideC. animal experimentD. fashion advertisement5. Silkworms can produce pink silk because ________.A. they are born pinkB. they are dyed pinkC. they grow in pink waterD. they are fed dyed food6. Where is the experiment carried out?A. In America.B. In India.C. In Israel.D. In China.7. How many dyes have been proved successful in the experiment?A. One.B. Three.C. Five.D. Seven.CGlobal food demand will double by 2050, according to a new projection, and the farming techniques used to meet that unprecedented(空前的) demand will significantly determine how severe the impact is on the environment, researchers said.The study researchers warned that meeting the demand for food would clear more land, increase nitrogen(氮) use and significantly add to carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions.“Agriculture’s greenhouse gas emissions could double by2050 if current trends in global food production continue,” study researcher David Tilman, of theUniversityofMinnesota, said in a statement. “This would be a major problem, since global agriculture already accounts for a third of all greenhouse gas emissions.”The researchers studied various ways in which the increasing food demand could be mentioned. They found that the most environmentally friendly and cost-effective approach would be for more food producers to adopt the nitrogen-efficient “intensive” farming method, which involves the heavy use of labor and the production of more crops per acre.This approach was shown to be more effective than the “extensive” farming currently practiced by many poor nations, a method that includes clearing more new land to produce more food.Different farming methods produce significantly different yields, the researchers found — in 2005, the crop yields for the wealthiest nations were more than 300 percent higher than what the poorest nations produced.According to their analysis of the effects of extensive farming, if poorer nations continue using this method, by 2050theywill have cleared an area larger than theUnited States, about 2.5 billion acres. However, if wealthy nations help poorer nations to improve food yields by incorporating(吸收) intensive farming practices, that number could be reduced to half a billion acres.The researchers stress that the environmental effects of meeting future food demand depend on how global agriculture expands and develops.“Our analyses show that we cansave most of the Earth’s remaining ecosystems by helping the poorer nations of the world feed themselves,” Tilman said.8. What is the best title of this passage?A. The World Will Need Double Food by 2050B. Man Will Face the Risk of Lacking Food in the FutureC. Future Farmers Hold Environment’s Fate in Their HandsD. Different Farming Methods Produce Significantly Different Yields9. The character of the extensive farming is ________.A. very cost-effectiveB. to produce more crops per acreC. at cost of more new land to produce more foodD. very environmentally friendly10. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A. poorer nations mainly use the intensive farmingB. wealthy nations mainly use the extensive farmingC. the intensive farming needs less food producersD. the extensive farming has a worse effect on ecosystems11. According to the passage, the underlined word “they” in the 7th paragraph refers to “________”.A. poorer nationsB. the effects of extensive farmingC. wealthy nationsD.future food demandDTourism is often about seeking deeper emotional and personal connections with the world around us. Not all travel experiences, however, need to take place in the real world. With the evolution of virtual reality(VR) technology, tourism will increasingly become a combination of physical and virtual worlds. VR may even remove the need to travel entirely.But can a VR experience really equal a real world one? Many experts believe it can. Studies have shown that our brains have an inbuilt VR-like mechanism that enables us to live imagined experiences. Much of our waking life is spent thinking about either the past or the future. This is known as" mind wandering". During these eventswe' re not paying attention to the current world around us. Instead, we' re recalling memories, or creating and processing imagined futures.When engaged in mind wandering, our brains process these mental images using the same pathways used to receive inputs from the real world. So, the imagined past or future can create emotions and feelings similar to how we react to everyday life. VR can create these same feelings.While critics might argue that a virtual experience will never match reality, there are several ways VR tourism could make a positive contribution. Firstly it could help protect sensitive locations from over-tourism. In recent years famous sites such as Maya Bay in Thailand, and Cambodia's Angkor Wat Temples have had to limit the number of visitors because of their negative impact. These places are now producing their own VR experiences that will allow tourists to pass through virtual models of the sites.Virtual reality may also allow people back in time, to experience historical events, visit ancient cities, and even to walk among dinosaurs.Finally, in a world where many people suffer from stress and depression due to overwork, virtual tourism may provide a cheap and convenient way for people to take brief holidays to otherwise unreachable destinations and recharge their batteries, without ever leaving their homes.It sounds like science fiction but it's already happening. As virtual technology improves and as people continue to demand new and interesting experiences, expect more virtual tourism, both in combination with the real world and instead of it.12. What is driving the development of virtual tourism?A. Companies seeking to make more money.B. Improvements in virtual reality technology.C. People's demand for more shared experiences.D. People's deeper understanding of the physical world.13. Which of the following best describes "mind wandering"?A. The brain processes which help people think VR is real.B. The way the brain processes inputs from the real world.C. Brain activities focusing on past or future events.D. Experiences coming from a person's imagination.14. What does the underlined word "it" in the last paragraph refer to?A. Science fiction.B. Virtual technology.C. Virtual tourism.D. The real world.15. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To describe the advantages of VR tourism.B. To give suggestions for reducing over-tourism.C. To encourage people to develop VR technology.D. To argue VR tourism will replace the real world travel.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。

Anxiety．11.What is the main idea of the text？______A. Egg painting art preserves traditional and popular symbols．B. Different cultures have different ways of honoring the egg．C. Ukrainian egg painting art appeals to contemporary artists．D. Egg painting art continues and develops in pace with time．DImagine you enter a car with no steering wheel，no brake or accelerator pedals （踏板）．Under a voice-activated command，you say an address．"The fastest route will take us 15.3 minutes．Should I take it？" You say "yes" and you are on your way．The car responds and starts moving all by itself．All you have to do is to sit back and relax．How strange would it be if，one day in the future，everyone had such a car？No crazy driving，no quarrels，no cutting in；traffic laws would be respected and driving muchsafer．On the other hand，imagine the cost savings for local police enforcement （强制执行）and town budgets without all those speeding and parking tickets．A new technology has the potential to change modern society thoroughly．There's no question that self-driving vehicles could be an enormous benefit．The potential for safer cars means accident statistics would drop：some 94% of road accidents in the U．S．involve human error．Older drivers and visually- or physically-disabled people would gain a new level of freedom．Maintaining safe speeds and being electric，self-driving cars would sharply reduce pollution levels and dependency on non-renewable fuels．Roads would be quieter，people safer．But we must also consider the impact of the new technology on those who now depend on driving for their living．According to the U．S．Department of Labor，in May 2015 there were 505，560 registered school bus drivers．The American Trucking Association lists approximately 3.5 million professional truck drivers in the U．S．The companies developing self-driving vehicles should be partnering with state and federal authorities to offer retraining for this massive workforce，many of whom will be displaced by the new technology．New technologies will，and should，be developed．This is how society moves forward．However，progress can't be one-sided．It is necessary for the companies and state agencies involved to consider the moral consequences of these potential changes to build a better future for all．12.What would be the effect of the wide use of driverless cars？______A. More policemen would inspect the streets．B. People would never feel angry about the traffic．C. It would save local governments a lot of money．D.

The gap between various departments of society would be widened．15.What does the author suggest businesses and the government do？______A. Enable everyone to benefit from new technologies．B. Keep pace with technological developments．C. Make new technologies affordable to everyone．D. Popularize the use of new technologies and devices．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共50.0分）Artists might have sunk into a state where they forgot themselves，didn't need to think and lost track of time，and inspirations would "just flow out"．Such a state of total involvement and effortless concentration is called "flow"．(1) ．It is accompanied by physical changes such as deepened breathing and slow heart beats．The benefits of being in the flow state stretch beyond the experience itself．Flow is associated with subjective happiness，satisfaction with life and inner peace．At work，it's linked to productivity，motivation and responsibility．(2) ．In fact，we all can experience flow whenever we are fully devoted to our work or hobbies or relationships，in mountainsand cities alike．If you don't experience flow every day，here are ways to trigger （触发）it．Create best conditionsAvoid noisy environments and opportunities for interruptions．(3) ，so you'll need to experiment to find what works best for you．(4) You need to engage in activities that are meaningful，that you find challenging and for which you have the skills required to come out as winners．The level of difficulty should also be just right - not so easy that you find yourself bored，but not so hard that you get stressed．Stay highly aware of yourselfPractice staying highly aware of your breath，your presence，your thoughts and your actions，and you will live fully each second of the present and be completely yourself．Gradually the world around melts away and what you are doing becomes worth doing for its own sake．(5) ．A．Decide on a proper activityB．Flow is more than a state of mindC．Fortunately，flow is not unique to artistsD．Flow is a happy accident when it happensE．Then you will be already in the flow state before you know itF．The most desirable environment varies from person to personG．Take whatever calm you can get，be yourself and the observer of yourself16. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G17. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G18. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G19. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G. G20. A. A B. B C. C D. D E.E F.F G.

Chances are that you don’t. You probably think the music that they like is old and boring and that the songs on your playlist are muchcooler. But scientists found that people’s music taste changes as time goes by. So it is likely that your own musical preferences will follow a similar path to your parents’, whether you like it or not.We used to think that culture and personality (个性) are the only reasons for different music choices. But researchers at the University of Cambridge noticed that as people enter into different age groups, their social environment changes, and so does their music taste. There are some musical periods that people go through in their life.The first period comes in the teenage years, during which people like strong music such as punk and rock, because teenagers tend to be aggressive or want to be independent.But as people move into early adulthood, their lifestyles change they want to build close relationships with others. As a result, they become fonder of contemporary music, such as pop and R&.B, which is usually uplifting and danceable.When middle age comes, most people have settled down. During this period, people prefer music, such as jazz and classical, as well as music like country, folk and blues.As for old people, they prefer old songs in their childhoods. They generally listen to relaxing music, such as country music and jazz music. But you must be questioning. “Aren’t there old people who are still interested in or even crazy about rock music?” Of course there are. But their reasons for listening to rock music may have changed. At that age people may listen to remind themselves of their youth.4. What do young people usually think of the songs their parents enjoy?A. They are actually less cool.B. They are worth listening to.C. They are especially serious.D. They are hard to understand.5. How many musical periods are there that people go through in their life?A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D. Five.6. People who want to make friends mostly prefer ________.A. jazz musicB. country musicC. rock musicD. pop music7. What is the best title for the text?A. People Have Different Opinions on MusicB. People Listen to Music for the Same ReasonC. People’s Taste in Music Changes with TimeD. People’s Lifestyle Can Be Changed by MusicCChina's Mars probe Tianwen-1 successfully landed on the surface of the red planet on May 15, 2021, leaving a Chinese footprint on Mars for the first time and in its first attempt, becoming the only other nation besides theUSto get such an achievement. The Tianwen-1 probe touched down at its pre-selected landing area in the southern part of Utopia Planitia, a wide plain on Mars, at 7:18 a.m.(Beijing Time), after three months scanning the whole planet on Mars docking orbit, the China National Space Administration(CNSA) announced.Tianwen-1, including an orbiter, a lander and a rover, was launched from the 'Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site on the coast of southernChinas islandprovinceofHainanon July 23, 2020. It was the first step inChina's planetary exploration of the solar system, with the aim of completing orbiting, landing and roving on the red planet in one mission. According to the administration, the country's first Martian probe will conduct scientific investigations about the Martian soil, environment, atmosphere as well as water.China's planetary exploration program has been named “Tianwen”, which was named after a long poem by the famous ancient poet Qu Yuan. The name represents the Chinese nation's willpower in pursuing truth, the country's cultural inheritance of its understanding of nature and universe, as well as the unending exploration in science and technology.China's first Mars rover has been named “Zhurong”, which means the god of fire in an ancient Chinese story. The name indicates Chinese people's blessing for the rover to light the flame ofChina's planetary exploration. The rover has six wheels and four solar panels, and carries 13 scientific instruments. According to the CNSA, Zhurong has started its scientific exploration after moving from the landing platform onto the Red Planet's surface on May 22.More than 40 Mars missions have been launched since the 1960s, but only about half have succeeded. It is the first time in the world that orbiting, landing and roving on Mars has been completed in one launch mission, andChinahas come to the forefront of Mars exploration in the world.8.

Tianwen-1 represented the god of fire.C. Tianwen-1 successfully landed on Mars.D. Tianwen-1 was launched from Wenchang.DIn many countries of the world, people can confidently tell youthe meaning of their town or city, but most people who live inManchester,OxfordorBirminghamwould not be able to explain what the name of their city means. The name of every British town and city, however, has a long history.Two thousand years ago, most people living inBritainwere Celts. Even the word “Britain" is Celtic (凯尔特语).Then the Romans arrived and built camps which became cities called “castra". This is why there are so many place names inEnglandwhich end in "-chester" or “-caster"Manchester, for example.The Romans never reachedWalesorScotland, and many placenames there are Celtic. For example,Welsh place names that begin with “Llan" come from the Celtic word for "church".After the Romans leftBritain, it was attacked by the Anglo-Saxons who were from the area of Europe that is nowGermanyandHolland. The names of their villages often ended in “-ham" or “-ton". Some got their names from the leader of the village.SoBirminghamfor example, means "Beormund's village”The Anglo-Saxons were farmers and the landscape was very important to them, so we have villages called Upton (village on a hill)——a good place to build a village and Moreton (“village by a lake”)where floods could make life hard. Place names that end in “-ford" (a place where you could cross a river) also describe the location of Anglo-Saxon villages.Finally, in 1066EnglandbecameNorman—theNormansgave us the place name "grange", which means farm.And how aboutLondon? Experts cannot agree. The Romans called the city Londinium, but they were not the first inhabitants (居民). People once believed that theUnited Kingdom’s capital city got its name from the castle of a King called Lud but this is very unlikely. Our best guess today is that the name comes from a Celtic word meaning a fast-flowing river. Like a number of British place names, its history is lost in time.12. The origin of British place names is unfamiliar to many local people because ofA. the death of local languagesB. the long lost history of the namesC. their lack of interest in itD. the frequent changes to the names13. According to the article,Stratfordis most likely a town .A. on a hillB. near a castleC. beside a riverD. with a church14. Which of the following shows the correct order of the arrival of inhabitants inBritain?A. The Celts—The Romans—TheNormans—The Anglo SaxonsB. The Celts—The Romans—The Anglo Saxons—TheNormansC. The Romans—The Celts—The Anglo Saxons—TheNormansD. The Romans―The Anglo Saxons—The Celts—TheNormans15. What doesLondonmean in Celtic?A. RiverB. LondiniumC. LudD.

To recommend courses．BIn 2011，the old style Malta buses were taken off the road and replaced by modern vehicles．Most of the old buses were deserted，a few were sold，and about 100 of them were put into storage in the hope of showing them in a museum at some stage．A pre-2011 visit to Malta wouldn't have been complete without a ride on one of the colorful buses．Until 1973 you could tell the destination of the bus just by looking at its color - Sliemawas green and white，Zabbar was red and white with a blue stripe（条纹）etc．．Later，the buses all had numbers．For a while，they were all painted green and white before the ‘final' orange，yellow and white．In their prime，walking around the Triton fountain at the Valletta bus station，you would have found it very difficult to see two buses of exactly the same design．Most of them had locally built bodies．On the front of the buses carried names like Dodge，Leyland，Bedford etc．．You were equally likely to find football pennants（锦旗）and the like decorating the cabs．Real bus experts would have recognized that these were there mainly for decorative reasons，and were seldom an accurate reflection of the vehicle's origins．Nowadays much more modern buses are to be found at the Floriana bus station．They are more environmentally friendly and possibly even more comfortable than the older types．However，I miss the old buses．I remember，when you boarded your bus，you had to prepare the correct change to pay the usually bad-tempered driver as you got on．If you were seated anywhere near the front，you would have noticed that most drivers sat well to the right of their steering wheel．The reason for this，as any Maltese would tell you，was to leave space for their pet to sit alongside them．I wonder where the pet sits these days．4.What makes a pre-2011 visit to Malta special according to Paragraph 2？______A. Traveling in colorful buses．B. Using buses with stripes．C. Painting buses bright colors．D. Telling destinations by different colors．5.Which of the following best explains "prime" underlined in Paragraph 3？______A. Painful time．B. Exciting time．C. Moment of fantasy．D. Moment of glory．6.What can we learn about Malta buses when they were popular？______A. They were of the same pattern．B. The decorations reflected their origin．C. Most were uniquely designed．D. Only football pennants decorated the cabs．7.How would the author feel about the old style Malta buses？______A. Comfortable．B. Environment-friendly．C. Safe．D. Memorable．CParents tend to favour children of one sex in certain situations — or so evolutionary biologists tell us. A new study used colored backpack sales data to show that parental wealth may influence spending on sons different from daughters.In 1973 biologist Robert Trivers and computer scientist Dan Willard published a paper suggesting that parents invest(投入)more resources, such as food and effort, in male children when times are good, and in female children when times are bad. According to theTrivers-Willard hypothesis(假说), a son given lots of resources can become a gentleman — but parents with few resources tend to invest them in daughters, who generally find it easier to be a fair maiden.Studying parental investment after birth is difficult, however. The new study looked for a standard of measurement of such investment that met several criteria: it shouldn't be affectedby sex differences in the need for resources; it should measure investment rather than outcomes; and it should be objective.Study author Shige Song, a sociologist at Queens College, City University of New York, examined spending on pink and blue backpacks purchased in China in 2015 from a large retailer, JD．com. He narrowed the data to about 5,000 bags: blue backpacks bought by families known to have at least one boy and pink ones bought by families known to have at least one girl. The results showed that wealthier families spent more on blue than pink backpacks — suggesting greater investment in sons. Poorer families spent more on pink packs than blue ones. The findings were published in Evolution and Human Behavior.Song's evidence for the Trivers-Willard hypothesis is “indirect” but “pretty convincing,”says Rosemary Hopcroft, a sociologist at the. University of North Carolina at Charlotte, who was not connected with the new study. Hopcroft reported in 2016 that U. S. fathers withhigh-status occupations were more likely to send their sons to private school than their daughters, while fathers with lower-status jobs more often enrolled their female children. Although the new study does not prove the families were buying the blue backpacks for boys and pink ones for girls, Hopcroft notes that“it's a clever and interesting paper, and it's a rather unusual use of big data.”8.What does the writer intend to do in Paragraph 2?A. Introduce an earlier study.B. Identify children’s needs.C. Assess the influence of a study.D. Explore into parental investment.9.What offers a challenge for the new study?A. The investment meeting several criteria.B. The measurement of eventual outcomes.C. Different demands for resources between sexes.D. Consistent standards in measuring parental investment.10.What can be learned from Song's research?A. The new study was done in 2015.B. Big data was sampled for research.C. Preference was offered to consumers.D. Blue packs were favored over pink ones.11.Which of the following is likely to match Hopcroft's remark on Song's research?A. It's entertaining.B. It's well-designed.C. It's unbelievable.D. It's unusual.DOn September 10，2018，Jack Ma，founder and chairman of Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba，announced his successor（继任者）at the company he founded 19 years ago．Surprisingly，in a country where 70 to 80 percent of private companies are still family run，Mr．Ma did not name a family member．Rather，one of the world's largest e-commerce companies will be led by Daniel Zhang，an 11-year Alibaba old hand chosen only for his "professional talent．"The history of many countries can be marked by a trend away from dependence on family succession in business，or the belief that qualities of leadership flow through bloodlines．Ma is a true innovator（创新者）in many ways，most famously for building an innovativeonline shopping market worth more than the economies of most countries．But his legacy（遗产）may lie in showing how China as well as much of Asia can produce founders of successful organizations unwilling to pass the torch to relatives．"Alibaba was never about Jack Ma，" he stated in announcing his succession plan．Instead，the former schoolteacher who came from lowly origins is stepping back from day-to-day operations because he has built a system that takes root in a company culture based on innovation，transparency，and responsibility．"For the last 10 years，we kept working on these ingredients，" he stated．The company's future will depend on developing a wealth of talent that drives innovation，he said．And in a society with a long tradition of cautious distrust toward those outside the family circle，Ma has built an "architecture of trust" with customers，who number over half a billion．Chinese now readily rely on Alibaba's online payment system，its ratings of products and services，and other trust-building systems or methods pioneered by the company．China's rapid growth now produces a new billionaire almost every day．Many of them，like Ma，have favored systems of management based on talent and honesty．As many countries have discovered as they progress，it is better to swim in a talent pool，not a gene（基因）pool．12.What do we know about Daniel Zhang from the passage？______A. He's a talented professor．B. He's an experienced manager．C. He's a successful founder．D. He's Chairman of Alibaba．13.Where does Ma's legacy lie in？______A. Becoming a successful innovative founder．B.

VietnamBMy violin is like a soul mate that whispers words of wisdom to me．Together，we've gone through both tears and happiness．About 12 years ago，I made acquaintance with it following an order from my mom．Many hours of boredom were spent practicing it．And to make things worse，the disappointment inmy teacher's eyes as I played the wrong notes was like an invisible hammer，striking on my heart．One day，I finally decided：I hate it!By chance，things changed when I was seven．I was at home lying on the sofa，wondering how those famous violinists dealt with this terrible dilemma．I searched online for the E-minor Concerto，a well-known violin work by German composer Felix Mendelssohn，and listened to it．A beautiful and mysterious sound came from the violin as the bow moved across it．It was like the music slid over the flowers，rose up，and started to fill the air．The violin's voice woke up the sun，made the trees green，and freshened the air．As the music changed，the sky turned back to gray．A gloomy shade covered the grass as all the sunshine disappeared．I could hear children crying and men shouting．It was like an invisible claw had grabbed my heart tightly，making it unable to beat．That glorious day set off my passion and interest in violin - I grabbed mine and never let it go．Before the memories faded，I stared at my instrument．Without hesitating，I picked it up，rosined（用松香擦）the bow，and began to play．Peace filled my heart．My violin has been by my side for 12 years．When I feel happy，an energetic tune makes it even better；when I'm deep in sorrow，a peaceful tune washes it away，when I'm walking on air，feeling especially pleased with my achievements，solemn（庄严的）tunes calm me down．Gradually，it has become a part of my life．My violin，shall I compare you to a summer's day？4.What further contributed to the author's dislike of violin-playing？______A.

A science newspaper．DA new study shows that rising levels of planet-warming gases may reduce important nutrients in food crops．Researchers studied the effects of one such gas-carbon dioxide-on rice．The researchers grew rice plants in a controlled environment．They set carbon dioxide levels to what scientists are predicting for our planet by the end of the century．They found that the resulting rice crops had lower than normal levels of vitamins，minerals and protein．The researchers said the effects of planet-warming gases would be most severe for the poorest citizens in some of the least developed countries．These people generally eat the most rice and have the least complex diets，they noted．In the experiment，scientists grew 18 kinds of rice in fields in China and Japan．They pumpedcarbon dioxide gas over the plants in an effort to create the atmosphere of the future．Rice grown under high carbon dioxide conditions had，on average，13 to 30 percent lower levels of four B vitamins and 10 percent less protein．The crops also had 8 percent less iron and 5 percent less zinc（锌）an rice grown under normal conditions．However，vitamin E levels increased by about 13 percent on average．The results are bad news，"especially for the nutrition of the poorer population inless-developed countries，" said the University of Tokyo's Kazuhiko Kobayashi，who helped to write the report．That includes about 600 million people in Indonesia，Cambodia，Myanmar，Bangladesh，Laos and other nations，mainly in Southeast Asia，the report said．One of the scientists is Sam Myers of Harvard University in the American state of Massachusetts．He said that findings like this are an example of the surprises climate change create．" My concern is there are many more surprises to come，" he said．Myers noted that pollution，loss of some species，destruction of forests，and other human activities are likely to produce unexpected problems．He said that you cannot completely change all the natural systems that living organisms have grown to depend on over millions of years without having effects come back to affect our own health．The new study suggests a way to lower the nutritional harm of climate change．One way，Kobayashi said，is grow different forms of rice that have shown to be more resistant to higher carbon dioxide levels．12.Which county would be influenced most by planet-warming gases according to the text？______A.

They are all for younger readers．BOne evening last summer，when I asked my 17-year-old son，Ray，for help with dinner，his response surprised me，"What's a colander（漏勺）？" he asked．I could only blame myself．Nobody's hands went in the sauce except my own．But that night，as I explained with a touch of panic that a colander is the thing with holes in it，I wondered what else I hadn't prepared Ray for．I felt confident that I'd raised a self-reliant boy，as we all try to do．But could he boil water？Sew on a button？Wash his clothes without turning them pink？No，no and no．Suddenly it hit me：He'd be leaving the house in a year to attend college．No way was I going to set a spoiled prince into the world．As parents，while we focus on our child's confidence and character，we perhaps don't always consider that we are also raising someone's future roommate，boyfriend，husband，or father．I wanted to know that I'd raised a boy who would never ask the woman in his life，"What's for dinner？" So I came up with a plan：I would offer Ray a private home economics course．I was delighted to find that he didn't say no．For two hours，three days a week，Ray was all mine．One day，as his tomato sauce reduced on the stove，he washed and seasoned a chicken for toasting．Then he rolled out the piecrust （馅饼皮）and filled it with apples，all while listening to my explanation on the importance of preheating an oven．Three of my four grandparents were tailors，so Ray was genetically programmed to quickly master the basics，like mending a split seam or refastening a button．One day we covered Advanced Laundry，in which I taught him never to mix a red sweatshirt with white shirts or put sweaters in the dryer．I knew that he would rather have been shooting hoops in the driveway than learning to mend socks with his mother -- he tried to beg off sewing lessons，even though I insisted that one day，someone would find the sight of him fixing his own shirt very attractive -- but it couldn't be denied that he was learning，and more than just housekeeping．"I appreciate more what you do as a mom，" he told me one day．Ray now understands the finer points of cooking，and more important，he realizes there's nothing masculine（男子气的）about being helpless．Not only can he make his own dinner，he can make it for his family，too．That's what I call a man．4.Hearing her son's question，the author felt ______ ．A. shockedB. angryC. disappointedD. calm5.We can learn from the text that Ray ______ ．A. made great progress in cookingB. preferred sewing to cookingC. was unwilling to take the course at firstD. always thought it attractive to do housework6.The underlined part "more than just housekeeping" shows that Ray ______ ．A. fell in love with houseworkB. did other work in the houseC. acknowledges the author's effortsD. began to be more independent7.What would be the best title for the text？______A. Are Women Programmed for Housework？B. Should Boys Be Involved in Housework？C. I'm Proud I've Raised a Curious SonD. A Present for My Future Daughter-in-lawCMany people may have watched the film "March of the Penguins"，which shows a real group of birds in Antarctica．Imagine a group of fat black and white birds walking in a line．Suddenly，one penguin loses his balance and falls on the ice．Every time penguins fall down，people laugh．The animals are cute!People like the film very much．So much，in fact，that police in England think that it may be the reason behind a crime．A man went to a zoo in London and stole a baby penguin．Authorities think that the man stole the penguin after seeing the film and believe he wanted to give it away as a Christmas gift．Michael Gauthier-Clerc，an expert studying penguins，thinks that many people like penguins but some people do not understand them．He told The New York Times newspaper，"People love the penguin's colors，its way of standing straight upright and the way it walks．" These things make penguins seem cute to people，but there are good reasons for all of these things．For example，penguins move from side to side when they walk and may seem to be out of balance．But Doctor Gauthier-Clerc says that the penguins waddle to save energy．The penguin's colour also has a special purpose．It protects the penguins when they are swimming．From below，larger animals cannot see the penguin's white underside because it looks the same as the bright sky or ice．And from above，other animals cannot see the penguin's black back against the dark ocean floor．The penguins' colors protect them in nature．But scientists have found that some of these physical details also have an effect on humans．They make animals seem cute to people．Scientists believe that humans are very sensitive to things that are cute，such as human baby and even objects that may look like parts of a baby．Recent studies show that cute images affect the brain in a special way．A study done at the University of Michigan tested young people's reactions to images．It found that young people believed a message more if the message was joined by a cute picture．The researchers showed the young people two messages．One was a simple anti-smoking message．The other showed a cute animal telling them that smoking was bad．The conclusion turned out that the young people trusted the cute message more than the simple message．8.In the film "March of the Penguins"，______ ．A. a baby penguin is stolenB. a penguin is sent out as a giftC. penguins are cute and attractiveD. penguins have a bad sense of balance9.It can be inferred from the passage that ______ ．A. a walking penguin has more energy than a swimming oneB. a penguin walks in a funny way to prevent itself from fallingC. a shop selling baby products are likely to make more moneyD. a website with cute pictures may attract more young visitors10.Scientists have found that the penguins' color can ______ ．A. change at different placesB. help them keep warmC. make people have pity on themD. protect them from being hunted11.The study carried out by the University of Michigan shows that ______ ．A. cute messages mislead peopleB. cuteness influences people's judgmentC. humans react to anything that is cuteD. a simple message is more convincing than a cute messageDWhen you search Google or use Amazon，you might assume the results you see are the same as those viewed by your friends，family and other Internet users．But you'd bewrong．Websites and social networks track your location and search history and make assumptions about your age，race，sex and political views．They then show ads they believe to be the most relevant，in order to maximize clicks，but personalize which results you see by eliminating what they think is irrelevant．This is sold to the public as positive，making each web session relevant and interesting，yet it is leading researchers to fear this could widen divides between the North and South，rich and poor，and young and old．For example，in terms of wealth，if users are only ever shown particular products and job advertisements based on how much they earn or where they live，these users will never be given the opportunities to increase their wealth，or how much they spend on items．Princeton University has created bots（自动程序），each with their own fake profiles．These bots have different fake ages and sexes，earn different levels of money，are virtually（虚拟地）based in various locations around the world and have different interests．By using these bots to scan and research the web，the researchers hope to create a picture of not only what each of them sees，but also what sites they are missing out on．According to lead researcher，Arvind Narayanan，"Our goal is a web privacy census（普查）which will be a comprehensive map of who are collecting what information，what they are inferring from it，and who they are sharing it with．It is an important step in our final goal of figuring out how users are treated based on that information．"Personalization also has its benefits．Shopping sites such as Amazon and eBay can scan a user's search and purchase history to offer suggestions．This can help find similar，cheaper items or items that are more suited to their needs at a glance．It's also possible to disable personalized ads and results．Google's search engine lets you switch off personalization，for example．Researchers from the Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona and Yahoo felt the issue was so potentially damaging，and they have also created a way to "burst the filter（过滤）bubble"．They believe that just because people have opposing views on certain topics it doesn't mean they won't share interests with others．12.The underlined word "eliminating" in Paragraph 1 probably means " ______ "．A. decoratingB. removingC. personalizingD. protecting13.Princeton University created bots to ______ ．A. explain why different websites are personalizedB. offer users some advice on how to protect privacyC. assess how personalization is affecting Internet usersD. stress the advantages and disadvantages of personalization of websites14.Which of the following websites have done something to cut off personalization？______A. Google and YahooB. eBay and GoogleC. Amazon and eBayD. Amazon and Yahoo15.What is this passage mainly about？______A. Different websites are doing something to offer quality service．B. Personalized ads and search results could be creating different web pages．C. Personalization of different sites will lead to users' privacy being violated．D. Personalization of shopping sites makes online shopping more convenient．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）The modern competitive sport of weightlifting originated in 19th-century Europe and was included in the first modern Olympic Games in 1896．(1) At that time，simple competitions were held to see who could lift the heaviest weight．The first worldwide weightlifting championships were held in London in 1891．At that time，there were no female competitors．Today，the World Weightlifting Championships，organized by the International Weightlifting Federation （IWF），are held every year．(2) ．Weightlifting as an Olympic event got off to an unsmooth start．It was not held as a separate event in the first games held in 1896，but as a field event．(3) The sport returned to the Olympics again in 1904，this time as part of the athletics program．Not until 1920 did weightlifting make its real Olympic comeback．The 1920 Olympic Games，held in Antwerp，Belgium，marked weightlifting's debut（首次露面）as a separate event．(4) Previously，weightlifters in the Olympics were all required to compete against each other，regardless of their size．One-hand lifting was dropped from the sport in 1928．Various weightlifting exercises were added and later removed over many years until 1972．(5) The 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney saw the introduction of the women's competition，although the IWF has held the World Weightlifting Championships for women since 1987．A．The 1940 and 1944 Games were canceled．B．It is a sport in which barbells are lifted competitively．C．The 1900 Games had no weightlifting presence at all．D．The championships include 15 separate weight types for both men and women．E．The 1972 Olympic Games finally presented the weightlifting program in its present form．F．The sport，however，dates back to ancient civilizations including China，Egypt and Greece．G．The Antwerp Games also introduced one-hand lifting and weight divisions to the new event．16.

高考英语全真模拟卷题号I II III IV V总分得分一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30.0分）AThe skin under the eyes is delicate，which is why it sometimes appears sunken and has darker coloring than elsewhere on the face．Aging and health problems play a role in sunken eyes but other factors can contribute，so it may affect younger people as well．DehydrationThe most common cause of sunken eyes is dehydration，or not having enough water in the body．Consuming too much coffee，soda，and prepackaged drinks may increase production of urine（尿液），which may lead to dehydration．Vitamin shortagesShortages of vitamin C，vitamin K，and iron can cause eyes to become sunken．Vitamin C helps with absorbing iron and decreasing bruising（瘀斑），while vitamin K is responsible for blood thickening，causing unhealthy skin．Easy bruising and unhealthy skin will result in sunken eyes．Weight lossMost people tend to lose weight in their face first．Sometimes，the weight loss is sudden enough to make blood vessels（血管）below the eyes easy to see，and the skin clear，producing the appearance of sunken eyes．Sudden weight loss may also cause nutritional shortages，which can lead to sunken eyes．Not enough sleep or por quality sleep can cause sunken eyes and a person's DNA or the habit of smoking can also contribute to sunken eyes．Most cases of sunken eyes relate to the quality of an individual's nutrition and healthy living．When these causes are corrected，sunken eyes can be resolved without further treatment．This means that causes can be avoided or treated in good time to prevent the recurrence of sunken eyes．1.What can we do to prevent dehydration according to the text？______A. Refuse coffee．B. Drink more water．C. Say no to soft drinks．D. Have certain drinks less．2.What will lead to bruising below the eyes？______A. Lack of vitamin K．B. Water shortages．C. Lack of vitamin C．D. Nutritional shortages．3.Which of the following should be avoided for people losing weight？______A. Pale faces．B. Sudden weight loss．C. Clean skin．D. Narrow blood vessels．BIn American countryside，the message we hear is this：Go and get an education．Leave your small town and make something of yourself．Success and opportunity are found elsewhere．Leave．Co．After graduating from a high school in Helena，Arkansas，I did go．I went to Colby College in Maine．I had visited the school ahead of time，so I knew what I was getting myself into．I knew about the difference in weather．I understood the differencein social atmosphere．But I wanted to stretch myself and get out of my comfort zone．And you know what？I absolutely loved my time there．But one thing took me by surprise - the lack of countryside representation．Most of the other students at Colby were from big cities：New York，Boston，Los Angeles，San Francisco…And when I had conversations with these students - in or outside of class - we almost always focused on topics facing large American cities．In my education classes，it was always "urban this" and "urban that"．It was like small town America didn't exist．And this urban interest doesn't just happen in college．I went to an education conference a couple of years ago，and a professor - someone who had been at the forefront of educational reform - was there to deliver a keynote．I was chosen to be part of a small group that got to meet with him．So there we were，five or six of us siting in a room，and I asked him，"What are your thoughts on the state of education in the countryside？" And this man was speechless．I'll never forget that moment．It speaks to a larger truth．Towns like mine are forgotten．This trend of exporting talent and resources to our big cities - this mindset of leaving small towns and never coming back - I don't want to add to that movement．I want to reverse that movement．Now it's my turn to help people younger than me．And you know what？I'm a sixth grade teacher in Helena now．4.What do people in American countryside think of the future of the youth at home？______A. Secure．B. Fragile．C. Promising．D. Bright．5.What did the author find in his college classroom？______A. Students chatted freely．B. Countryside was ignored．C. He was looked down upon．D. Students concentrated on education．6.How would the author feel about the professor's reaction？______A. It's emotional．B. It's natural．C. It's positive．D. It's disappointing．7.What is the author doing now？______A. Teaching in a college．B. Fighting for the movement．C. Working with the professor．D. Devoting himself to his hometown．CAnxiety is a natural response that changed gradually over millions of years to make us more careful and our bodies prepared to flee danger．But feeling anxious because you heard a noise on a dark street isn't the same thing as having an anxiety disorder．"The key thing we look for in the clinic is whether anxiety is interfering（妨碍）with a person's day-to-day life，or causing them a lot of unhappiness，" says Nick Grey of King's College London．To clinical psychologists like Grey，"maladaptive（不恰当的）beliefs" are typical in anxiety disorders and are often used to determine the type of anxiety someone has．In social anxiety disorder，the most common anxiety disorder，you might believe that your face turning red will result in people laughing at you．People with this type of disorder experience constant and great fear before，during and after social events．If you have panic disorder，you might assume that you are having a heart attack if your heartstarts to race．The physical symptoms of anxiety - a pounding heart，difficulty breathing，feeling dizzy - will then come on in a rush．Everyone can experience such panic attacks from time to time，but in panic disorder the attacks are regular and become a source of anxiety themselves．Other maladaptive beliefs are less specific．Generalized anxiety disorder is characterized by continuous worries about a range of different events or activities，for at least six months．If you have this condition，the belief driving your anxiety could，for example，be the feeling it's your job to take care of other people，or that you have responsibilities that you must meet at all cost．To decide who to refer for further treatment，doctors might use a tool called the GAD7test．8.Which of the following belongs to an anxiety disorder？______A. Quarreling with parents．B. Getting to school earlier．C. Missing a lunch．D. Knocking on the wall．9.What is social anxiety characterized by？______A. Continuous worries．B. Past experiences．C. Maladaptive beliefs．D. Frequent terrors．10.What will happen to you when you have panic disorder？______A. You can't stand steadily．B. Your face turns red．C. You can't touch anything．D. Your hands feel numb．11.What anxiety disorder occurs more often than others？______A. Generalized anxiety．B. Panic attacks．C. Social anxiety．D. Acute anxiety attacks．DIt’s at this time of the year that marathon recovery, not marathon training, starts to take center stage.Research indicates that the muscle damage from running a marathon can last up to two weeks. The research also indicates that muscle soreness(肌肉酸痛)is not a good indicator of muscular healing. In other words, just because you aren’t sore anymore doesn’t mean that you are fully healed. This is the danger for marathon runners: post-marathon muscular soreness fades after a few days but minor damage within the muscle cells remains. If you return to full training too soon — running more and faster than the tissues are ready for — you risk delaying full recovery and the chance to get ready for your next goal.The solution, it appears, is to recognize(and accept)that the muscles will take a while to heal and to be prepared to take it easy for the first couple of weeks (even longer if you’re particularly sore after your marathon). While the research isn’t very promising when it comes to things to do to reduce soreness and aid healing, a couple of concepts appear to help. First, providing gentle blood flow to the area helps bring healing nutrients into the muscles and also helps to remove waste products and damaged tissue. Walking and gentle massage(按摩)can help, particularly in the first few days after a marathon. Once muscle soreness has significantly reduced (usually two to four days after the race), light jogging can commence. Just be mindful to run very slowly.No runner wants to get super fit and then lose that during the recovery process. But since you must reduce your training load following your marathon, it can be difficult as to how much and how soon to insert running into your post-marathon training.12.When should marathon runners return to full training?A. About half a month after the competition.B. A few days after soreness disappears.C. Before the tissues recover completely.D. Before the next game draws closer.13.How can marathon runners reduce their muscle soreness?A. Through family care.B. By doing gentle exercise.C. Through medical treatment.D. By removing damaged tissue.14.Which of the following best explains “commence” underlined in paragraph 3?A. Fit.B. Heal.C. Start.D. Mend.15.What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Recovery after MarathonB. Soreness with SportsC. Healing Muscle SorenessD. Reducing Training Load二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）When I first came to UK from China at 6，I entered the first grade．(1) ．I saw children throw their left over food into the large trash cans - from half-eaten pizzas to untouched burgers ．I watched them pour their milk into a white bucket．In China，this was a huge no-no in school．We had to finish everything．One day，my first grade teacher announced that we would be having a party and everyone was told to bring something from their country．(2) ．My mom stayed up after her long day of work and made many dumplings．She put them in the fridge and woke up early in the morning to steam them and fry them so they would taste extra fresh when I brought them to school．They smelled great and looked golden brown after they were cooked．I was so excited to share these with my class and teachers．It was placed in the corner of the table next to all the other delicious food．(3) ．One or two kids bravely took a piece and knew what they were because they had it with their parents at a Chinese restaurant．At the end of the party，it was cleanup．My teacher walked up to me and asked，pointing to the dumplings，"Would you like to take these home？" I carefully replied，"No…" (4) ．I thought she was going to share it with other teachers，but immediately after I said that，she threw all the dumplings into the trash and continued cleaning．I was confused；what just happened？(5) ．And today I still witness this frequently in my English fiends．Please eat all your food or take it to go or share it or just get enough so you don't have to throw it away．Thank you．A．In China，"no" usually means "yes"B．I got super excited and told my parentsC．It was very impolite to take your gift homeD．This was the biggest culture shock I have experiencedE．When I got home，I shared the experience with my parentsF．Many kids had the cookies and juices and were hesitant to try the dumplingsG．I didn't understand why kids were getting their lunch food and not finishing it16.

News media contribute to students' progress．CYou know the feeling that you have left your phone at home and feel anxious，as if you have lost your connection to the world．"Nomophobia" （无手机恐惧症）affects teenagers and adults alike．You can even do an online test to see if you have it．Last week，researchers from Hong Kong warned that nomophobia is infecting everyone．Their study found that people who use their phones to store，share and access personal memories suffer most．When users were asked to describe how they felt about their phones，words such as "hurt" （neck pain was often reported）and "alone" predicted higher levels of nomophobia．"The findings of our study suggest that users regard smartphones as their extended selves and get attached to the devices，" said Dr．Kim Ki Joon．"People experience feelings of anxietyand unpleasantness when separated from their phones．" Meanwhile，an American study shows that smartphone separation can lead to an increase in heart rate and blood pressure．So can being without your phone really give you separation anxiety？Professor Mark Griffiths，psychologist and director of the International Gaming Research Unit at Nottingham Trent University，says it is what is on the phone that counts-the social networking that creates Fomo （fear of missing out）．"We are talking about an internet-connected device that allows people to deal with lots of aspects of their lives，" says Griffiths．"You would have to surgically remove a phone from a teenager because their whole life is rooted in this device．"Griffiths thinks attachment theory，where we develop emotional dependency on the phone because it holds details of our lives，is a small part of nomophobia．For "screenagers"，it is Fomo that creates the most separation anxiety．If they can't see what's happening on Snapchat or Instagram，they become panic-stricken about not knowing what's going on socially．"But they adapt very quickly if you take them on holiday and there's no internet，" says Griffiths．9.Which of the following may Dr．Kim Ki Joon agree with？______A. We waste too much time on phones．B. Phones have become part of some users．C. Addiction to phones makes memories suffer．D. Phones and blood pressure are closely linked．10.According to Giffiths，we get nomophobia because ______ ．A. we are accustomed to having a phone on usB. we need our phones to help us store informationC. we worry we may miss out what our friends are doingD. we fear without phones we will run into a lot of trouble11.Where can you probably find the above passage？______A. In a research report．B. In a fashion brochure．C. In a science textbook．D. In a popular science magazine．DHumans make mistakes．Even surgeons with years of experience are not infallible．But what if these doctors could pool their knowledge and experience together and create a surgical standard of care，to be carried out by machines？That's the idea behind surgical robots，which may soon perform most surgeries，from sewing up tiny wounds to performing heart procedures．Many of these operations are，in fact，already completed with the assistance of robots．But a recent test suggests that robots in the operating room may soon go a step further，performing on soft tissue completely on their own，from start to finish．The Smart Tissue Autonomous Robot（STAR），successfully completed surgeries on pigs．"We're the first group to develop autonomous robotic surgery with soft-tissue surgery，and when compared to standard operation，it's better，"says Peter Kim，professor of surgery．"The idea is not to replace surgeons；it will make the surgeons better and make the procedures safer．"A recent Mayo Clinic study found that major surgical errors-including operating on the wrong site or side of the body，or even leaving tools or objects inside the patient-occur every one out of 22，000procedures．That's rare，but robots like STAR would aim to lower the numbereven further．In the da Vinci surgical system，surgeons place their arms inside instruments and use their hands to control the movement of robotic tools on the operating table from afar．The robot's every major move is controlled by surgeons，and thus its results may vary based on the surgeon's training or experience．STAR，on the other hand，is entirely autonomous．It's not only able to work on its own and perform surgeries with a more flexible "hand"，but it's able to react to the unexpected incidents．Cutting into hard tissue like bones is one thing，but operating on moving soft tissue is far more complex．STAR reacts to a changing environment，similar to how self-driving cars are programmed to not only drive on the highway，but also react to another driver makinga mistake and getting in your way．12.The underlined word "infallible" in Paragraph 1 probably means ______ ．A. quite smartB. really creativeC. rather responsibleD. always right13.We can learn from the passage that STAR ______ ．A. can perform the operation on its ownB. has been widely used in the operating roomC. can make surgeries much fasterD. will take the place of surgeons14.In the da Vinci surgical system，______ ．A. robots are trained from afarB. robots always make mistakesC. surgery results depend on surgeonsD. surgeons have trouble controlling robots15.In the last paragraph，the author mentions self-driving cars in order to show ______ ．A. how smart an autonomous robot can beB. how difficult self-driving on the highway isC. how bad getting in another driver's way might beD. how dangerous operating on people is．二、阅读七选五（本大题共3小题，共10.0分）Steps for a Successful College Application When it comes to getting into the college of your choice，your college application is the most important tool you have in your hands．(1) ，while a bad one can land you at the bottom．Keep the following tips in mind when you are going through the college application process and you'll be on the road to admission．Be Prepared(2) ，carefully look over all the questions and requirements．Dedicate a page to each college with a checklist of everything you'll need to submit，such as transcripts，recommendations，the essay，copies of awards/certificates，etc．(3)Former Records Technician，Carmen Huff，says the best thing students do is to get their applications early-or at least by the deadline．Colleges and universities receive so many applications that they don't have the time to accept late ones．The more time you give the college or university to process your application，the more time you'll have to deal with any problems that might arise，Huff says．Watch Your GPA and Test ScoresThis is the first thing that most universities look at．For example，most four- year colleges don't have a GPA requirement，but top Ivy Leagues（常春藤联盟）usually only accept students with a 3.5 or higher GPA．However，if your GPA is weak，don't give upapplying．(4)Write an Amazing EssayA great essay can help tip the balance in your favor．(5) ．Many colleges require two essays，one short and one long．What you write not only shows how literate you are，but also provides the reader with an impression of your values and beliefs．A．Be On TimeB．Be Patient and DeterminedC．When you have a test or an examD．When you first receive the applicationE．A great application can zip you to the front of the lineF．So，take the time to think your essay through carefullyG．Instead，be sure to emphasize your other good qualities such as any awards or community involvement16.

2020年湖北省高考英语模拟试卷7套(附答案解析)
高考英语模拟试卷题号I II III IV V总分得分一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30.0分）AThe earth is a mysterious place that never stops to amaze．There are many places completely unimaginable．The incapability to understand the real story behind some of these phenomena draws many people．Blood Falls，AntarcticaHow is it that the coldest and driest place on the planet has a blood-red waterfall pouring down slowly into the McMurdo Dry Valleys，some of the most extreme desert lands on Earth？What causes the mysterious flow was only recently discovered in a study．Scientists believed for many years red algae（红藻）gave it the unusual color．But now research has shown that iron oxide（氧化物）is responsible for it．The waterfall even contains strange bacterial life forms．Magnetic Hill，Moneton，New BrunswickBe very careful if you choose to drive to the bottom of this hill．Stories about what happens there have been around since early 1900s．As impossible as it sounds，your car will start to roll uphill．"And it doesn't just work on cars-vans，trucks and even tour buses roll upward．" according to Tourism New Brunswick．Racetrack Playa，Death Valley，CaliforniaLocated in a remote valley between the Cottonwood and Last Chance Ranges，Racetrack Playa is a place of real beauty and mystery．The Racetrack is a dry lakebed，best known for its strange moving rocks．It looks like they "sailed" through the valley．Although no one has actually seen the rocks move，the long moving tracks left behind in the mud surface of the Playa prove their activity．The most logical explanation so far is that ice forms covering the stones，causing them to move．1.What's special about Racetrack Playa？______A. The lakebed there is red．B. The rocks there can move．C. There is no living creature．D. The rocks there can make sound．2.Which of the following is true？______A.

People are encouraged to be hard on themselves for a bright life．C. People are told to get rid of being angry and sorry in life．D. People are persuaded to care for themselves more than others．CEven as we humans keep polluting the world．Nature somehow keeps finding a way to help correct our mistakes．First，there is a molecule（分子）that helps reduce global warming．Now，a team of Yale students may have discovered something equally amazing - plasticeating fungi（真菌）．Pestalotiopsis microspora（微孢子）is the only known fungus to be able to survive only on plastic．The plastic is so hard that it takes thousands of years to break down on its own．The best part is that these fungi can do the job even in an oxygenless environment，which means that it could work perfectly even at the bottom of a landfill．The discovery was the result of an effort between three Yale students who were part of the Rainforest Expedition and Laboratory Program，allowing a selected group of students to visit Ecuador's rainforest and seek out fungi and bacteria that live inside plants without harming them，which could hold medical or scientific promise．The samples are then brought back to the University's lab where they do wide testing to see if they are of any practical or scientific use．In 2008，a student named Pria Anand gathered specimens for one purpose - to find a microbe that could cat plastic．That's when she came across the Pestalotiopsis microspora．Though she did show the unbelievable characteristics of the fungi，she was unable to get the desired results by the time she graduated，in 2010．Luckily for he Jonathan Russell，a 2011graduating student，picked up right where she had left off．By combining her work with research performed by another of Pria's classmates，Jeffery Huang，he was able to separate the enzyme（酶）in the fungus that is the most effective in breaking down plastic．Hopefully，experts will take it up from here and make the project a reality and help reduce plastic!8.What is the main character of Pestaltiopsis microspora？______A. It helps reduce global warming．B. It needs less oxygen to produce．C. It can break down plastic．D. It can be buried in a landfill．9.The underlined sentence in the passage may mean ______ ．A. Jonathan continued to study what Pria failedB. Jonathan drove to pick up Pria when she got offC. Jonathan came across Pria at an unexpected placeD. Jonathan invited Pria to go on with her research10.What can we know from the passage？______A. There are some kind of fungi that can eat plasticB. These fungi can only work in an oxygen environmentC. The discovery was made by chance．D. A group of students made the discovery that fungi can break down plastic11.The best title for the passage may be ______ ．A. Fungi Love PlasticB. Plastic Is Eaten by FungiC. Fungi Are Eaten by PlasticD. Fungi Are Hidden in PlasticDIt's normal for teens to want to stay connected to friends and social circles，but in the middle of the night？The Journal of Youth Studies recently published new research indicating that one in five teens from 12 to 15 regularly wake during the night to have some form of social media．Not surprisingly，the research also indicated that these social night owls were three times more likely than their friends to feel tired at school and that girls were more likely than boys to be called to office．The blue light produced by cell phones，tablets and computers signals the brain to stayawake，so it's easy to see why a teen might be up all might．A 2016 study in Psychological Science noted the same brain circuits（脑回路）that are activated by eating chocolate and winning money are activated when teens see large numbers of "likes" on their posts or those of their peers．Besides not catching enough snaps，by interrupting their sleep cycle，teens may never fully engage in REM sleep（快速动眼睡眠），the deepest stage of sleep that may be responsible for brain development and learning．Considering about 72 percent of children from 6 to 17 sleep with some electronic media in their bedrooms，parents need to set boundaries sooner rather than later．"Providing access to devices and thus to social media is a privilege that children can earn and also lose，" Janie Feldman，a psychologist who treats sleep disorders，reminds parents that，"temporarily removing privileges can have important impact so long as the means of earning back the privileges is clear．Teens and parents should discuss and agree upon terms of use，timing，and access．Teenagers are most cooperative when they agree to the rules，so including them in defining rules makes for very effective parenting．12.What does the new research indicate about teens from 12to 15？______A. Some of them rely on social media for homework．B. Some of them share their sleep experience online．C. Some of them often use cell phones or tablets at midnight．D. Some of them surf online for ways to protect animals．13.How will teens' brain react when they see many "likes" on their posts？______A. It will become too active for the teens to go to sleep．B. It will inspire the teens to post something more online．C. It will promote the teens for some restful time．D. It will promote the teens to earn money with their posts．14.What advice does Janie Feldman give parents of teens？______A. Forbid their children from using social media at night．B. Get the children to cam the right to social media with housework．C. Never give the children access to social media if they break a rule．D. Give back children's media access when they correct their errors．15.Which of the following is the best title for the passage？______A. How to Win Back the Trust of Parents．B. Sleep Disorders and Social MediaC. REM Sleep and Brain Development．D. The Harm of Social Media on Teens．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）To begin your study time，one biggest challenge is to get all necessary materials．(1) ．But if you prepare everything at one time，your studying will be more effective．Kitchen can be noisy．(2) ．A bedroom may be full o distractions，such as favorite magazines，music，or television．If you can，find a corner of a guest room or study-or any room that is not a high traffic area．(3) ．Good lighting，a comfortable chair，a good writing surface，writing instruments，reference tools．If you find it easier to study with music playing in the background，pick soothing（使人宽慰的）music and keep it at a low volume．The phone is a definite no，as are video games，sports equipment，or anything else that can cause distractions．For most students，one to two hours daily is enough．But sometimes you may have to study longer．(4) ．For example，some students like to study before dinner，others are early risers and find they can concentrate best in the morning．Tell all your family members whenyou will be in studying and ask them not to disturb you unless it's absolutely necessary．It can be difficult to start a standard study schedule，but the effort can pay off in better grades．(5) After a month of continual good study habits，treat yourself to spending time with good friends or doing something you enjoy as self-encouragement．A．What will you absolutely need to help you study？B．You will make your achievements known to others．C．Being close to those tempting snacks won't help with your process．D．Set aside a period of time to concentrate on what you are learning．E．Pick a time when you think your concentration level is the bestF．Another is to find a place where you can concentrate．G．Your teachers will notice your improvement．16.

Discussing．B. Wondering．C. Imagining．D. Presenting．5.What did the auction company stress when selling the 1935letter？______A. The style of the writer．B. The history of the letter．C. The contents of the letter．D. The popularity of the writer．6.What inspired Hemingway to write The Old Man and The Sea besides his ownadventure？______A. Henry Strater's account．B. Carlos Gutierrez's story．C. Max Perkins' life experience．D. Nate D Sanders' description．7.Which is the correct order of time for the following facts in the passage？______①Hemingway wrote a letter to describe his adventure．②Hemingway caught a big blue marlin．③The letter was sold at auction．④The Old Man and The Sea won the Nobel Prize．A. ①③②④B. ②①④③C. ②④①③D. ②③①④CUniversity of Pennsylvania researchers say that for the first time they have linked social media use to increases in depression and loneliness. The idea that social media is anything but social when it comes to mental health has been talked about for years, but not many studies have managed to actually link the two. To do that, Penn researchers, led by psychologist Melissa Hunt, designed a study that focused on WeChat, Snapchat and Instagram.The study was conducted with 143 participants, who before they began, completed a mood survey and sent along photos of their battery screens, showing how often they were using their phones to access social media. "We set out to do a much more complete study which attempts to imitate real life." Hunt said.The study divided the participants into two groups: The first group was allowed to maintain their normal social media habits. The other, the control group, was restricted to 10 minutes per day on social media. The restrictions were put in place for three weeks and then the participants returned and were tested for outcomes such as fear of missing out, anxiety, depression and loneliness.The results showed a very clear link between social media use and increased levels of depression and loneliness. "Using less social media than you normally do would lead to significant decreases in both depression and loneliness," Hunt said.Social media invites what Hunt calls "downward social comparison." "When you're online, it can sometimes seem that everyone else is cooler and having more fun and included in more things and you're left out," Hunt said. And that's just generally discouraging. "Every minute you spend online is a minute you are not doing your work or not meeting a friend for dinner or having a deep conversation with your roommate." And these real life activities are the ones that can encourage self-esteem and self-worth, Hunt added."People are on their devices, and that's not going to change," she said. But as in life, a bit of control goes a long way.8.Before the study was conducted, the participants completed a survey to ________.A. imitate people's real lifeB. link loneliness to depressionC. show their use of social mediaD. prove social media is important9.The results of the study showed using less social media would result ________.A. people's fear of missing outB. higher levels of depressionC. obvious relief in lonelinessD. lower levels of happiness10.In Hunt's opinion, which activity benefits more to mental health?A. Hiking out with friends.B. Making comparison with others.C. Playing computer games in spare time.D. Logging onto social media and having fun.11.Which can be the best title of the passage?A. A Study on Social MediaB. How to Improve Mental HealthC. People Addicted to Social MediaD. Social Media Influences Mental HealthD"Big tobacco" is what the bosses of several large technology firms have started calling Facebook．Being compared to the tobacco giants is far from praise，but it is not the only wide-spread analogy（比拟）．A lower blow is the suggestion that Facebook may become like Yahoo，the once high-flying internet firm tha t fell．Even a year ago the idea would have been unthinkable．But since January Facebook has become trapped in a series of misjudgments and missteps．It became clear that it had done too little to stop Russian interference（干涉）in America's election in 2016．It had to admit that it had shared the personal data of 90m users with outside firms without permission．The comparison to Yahoo is imperfect．Even at its peak Yahoo's business was never as large and profitable as Facebook's．One of the main reasons Yahoo declined is because it lost out to a powerful competitor，Google，in online search；Marissa Mayer，its boss from 2012 until its sale to Verizon last year，was unable to restore advertisers' or employees' confidence as users left．But people who watched Yahoo's falling see similarities．Executive（主管）turnover was a leading indicator of its decline；before Ms．Mayer was hired Yahoo went through four chief executives in three years．Mr．Zuckerberg，who controls the majority of Facebook's voting shares，is not leaving，but many top executives are．This year several have announced their departures，including Facebook's chief security officer．When advertisers' faith in Facebook has been shaken，politicians in Washington are running out of patience with the company．Lawmakers' inspection of the firm is causing it to be more cautious about how it uses data for targeting advertisements and about what information it makes available to outsiders．Mr．Zuckerberg and Ms．Sandberg are under pressure to prove to employees and advertisers that Facebook is not only trustworthy but worthy of their time and money．If they cannot do so，and the company's share price continues its slide，it is possible that Ms．Sandberg will be replaced in the next year．Mr．Zuckerberg will doubtless have thoughts about Yahoo's sorry tale．12.For Facebook，being compared to "big tobacco" is ______ ．A. positiveB. ambitiousC. creativeD. negative13.According to the author，what does Facebook currently have in common with the failedYahoo？______A. Letting out users' data．B. Being deep in financial crisis．C. Leaders are leaving the company．D. Laying off a large number of employees．14.The author tries to support his judgment about Facebook by ______ ．A. questioning its managementB. using evidence related to itC. analyzing its financial dataD. listing its advantages and disadvantages15.What is the main idea of the passage？______A. Facebook gets trapped in trouble．B. Two companies are deep in crisis．C. How to save Facebook．D. Faith is more valuable than gold．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）There was a survey of the people who were born from 1980 to 2000，asking them what their most important life goals were．Over 80 percent said it was to get rich．(1) We're constantly told to devote more to our work，to push harder and to achieve more．We're given the impression that these are the things that we need to go after to have a good life．But is that the truth？(2)But what if we could study people from the time when they were teenagers all the way into old age to see what really keeps people happy and healthy？The Harvard Study of Adult Development did it．For 75 years，they've tracked the lives of 724 men．Studies like this are extremely rare．Almost all projects of this kind fall apart within a decade because too many people drop out of the study．(3) Or the researchers can't get together．But through a combination of luck and the persistence of several generations of researchers，this study has survived．So what have they learned？The conclusion is that it's not wealth or fame that counts．(4) They've learned three big lessons about relationships．Firstly，people who are more socially connected to family，to friends and to community are happier and physically healthier．The second is that it's not just the number of friends you have but the quality of your close relationships that matters．And the third is that good relationships don't just protect our bodies．(5)A．They can even protect our brains．B．To become famous came second．C．Or funding for the research dries up．D．The good life is built with relationships．E．It turns out that being in conflict is bad for our health．F．It is good relationships that keep us happier and healthier．G．To be frank，sometimes wealth and fame can make people happy．16.

高考英语模拟试卷一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30.0分）AWhile smartphones stand accused of a variety of crimes，these pocket computers can certainly be a force for good．Your phone is always with you，making it the perfect device to push you into a more beneficial way of living．Here are some of the best apps that can help．HabiticaHabitica turns the goal of forming good habits into a game，with its own characters and scoring．It's a lot of fun，and the app also lets you build habits with friends and family．In addition to regular repeating habits，you can add a more general to-do list，and the rewards you get can be customized too - you could treat yourself to a meal out or an extra hour of games．Smoke FreeIf you've got a specific habit in mind，then you'll usually find specific apps to help，like Smoke Free．If you're determined to give up smoking，then this is one of the most comprehensive apps for giving you that extra push you need to make a permanent change．The app offers a host of useful features for people wanting to go smoke-free ：The ability to see your progress over time，charts showing how your health is improving，day-by-day encouragement，and some advice on techniques for giving up smoking．MyFitnessPalYou can find a ton of health and fitness apps for your phone，but MyFitnessPal stands out not just because it is easy to use，but because it makes practical suggestions for you．It can take in a host of data，from the calories （卡路里）you're taking in to the number of swims you're doing per week，and offer reports on calorie consumption and macronutrient （大量营养素）breakdown．1.What can Habitica help you to do？______A.

They're practical．C. They're free．D. They're interesting．BThe boy sat on his chair，with his hand above the keyboard．He thought about what to write．He recalled that the competition deadline was merely a week away．But he still had not even started on his piece．He looked at the brochure again．u WRITING COMPETITION!the title read．His mom had encouraged him to enter the writing competition，and now he was takingit on as his personal task for the holidays．As the boy reflected on his previous writing efforts，he realized how hopeless his task of winning was．Every story he ever wrote was based on other stories．He had little imagination，and unfortunately，imagination was the key to writing．Suddenly，he had a brainwave．This time，he came up with an original and imaginative story．The words shot towards him like a storm of leaves．Words were coming easily，flowing through him，faster than he could type．He typed faster than he ever had before．He continued to type，amazed at how easy writing this story was．The boy could not stop writing．He looked at the word count and saw the number u 248 ^ staring right back at him．He was not even halfway yet．Then he heard the call of his mother saying time for bed．He continued writing the piece，ignoring her．He had to make up for the time he had lost thinking about a topic to write．Finally，he finished．The word count now read "498"．"Perfect，" he thought，"just under the word limit．" He knew this was the story that would win．He went onto Google and searched for the competition．He found the page but there was no "Enter" button．4.What caused the boy to take part in the writing competition？______A.

Kids under the age of 2．D. Some crazy bloggers．11.Which of the following can be the best title for the text？______A. Children's New TroubleB. Social MediaC. Kids' Online PeformanceD. Mommy BloggersDWhile elephants born without tusks （长牙）are not unheard of，they normally form just 2 to 6 percent of the population．However，that is not the case at Mozambique's Gorongosa National Park，where an astonishing 33 percent of female elephants born after the country^ civil war ended in 1992 are tuskless．While that may appear to be just a coincidence，Joyce Poole，an elephant behavior expert，has another theory．The researcher thinks we may be witnessing unnatural evolution of the species due to the constant hunting of elephants for valuable ivory．Poole says before the country's 15-year-long civil war，the 100，000-acre park was home to over 4，000 elephants．However，by the time the conflict ended in 1992，about 90 percent of them had been killed for ivory to help finance weapons （武器）and meat to feed the soldiers．Of the less than 200 survivors，over 50 percent of adult females had no tusks．Therefore，it is not surprising that the park's tuskless elephant population has grown greatly．This is not the first time researchers have observed a great change in the population of elephants．At Zambia's South Luangwa National Park and Lupande Game Management Area，areas which were heavily hunted in the 1970s and 1980s，35% of elephants 25 years or older and 13% of those younger than 25 are now without tusks．A 2008 study published in the African Journal of Ecology found that the numter of tuskless females at the Ruaha National Park in Tanzania went from 10.5 percent in 1969 to almost 40 percent in 1989，largely due to illegal hunting for ivory．The recent ban on ivory in both the US and China should help get rid of，or at least reduce，elephant hunting．However，scientists are not sure how long it will take for elephants witha higher rate of tuskless females，to change the trend．12.What is the probable cause of the phenomenon mentioned in Paragraph 1 ？______A. Illegal hunting．B. Constant farming．A pure coincidence．D．Natural evolution．13.Why did people kill so many elephants during the civil war in Mozambique？______A. To get funds by selling ivory．B. To develop new weapons．C. To provide food for local people．D. To make ivory products．14.Which of the following had the earliest record on tuskless elephants？______A. Gorongonsa National Park．B. South Luangwa National Park．C. The Ruaha National Park．D. Lupande Game ManagementArea．15.What does the underlined phrase uthe trendin the last paragraph refer to？______A. Elephants facing greater danger．B. Elephants growing more slowly．C. Fewer female elephants staying alive．D. More female elephants being tuskless．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Many people struggle with saying "No"．(1) Remember，just because you can do something does not mean it is required．Understand you always have a right to turn down an invitation or refuse a favor and figure out the best ways to say "No"．Here are some specific tips．Give yourself permission to say no．Many people have an immediate reaction to say "Yes" when they're asked to do someone a favor．Keep in mind，you are never required to say "Yes"．It's actually okay to say "No" sometimes．Accept this as you prepare to say "No" to someone．(2)Set up your personal boundaries．(3) However，that reason does not have to be concrete．Many people think if they can do something，they should．Your reason for saying "No" can be a simple matter of your own personal boundaries．Think about what boundaries you have，and accept the fact you9re allowed to stay true to them．(4) People often won't take "No" for an answer．If you say "No" to someone，they may give you various reasons to try and change your mind．Stay determined for your decision and do not give in easily．Practice saying " No"• It may sound silly，but you can actually practice saying " No'，alone．(5) Practice giving a firm "No" to someone so you get comfortable with the words．Many people are nervous about saying " No " and may say "Yes" due to anxiety．Practicing can help get rid of some of this anxiety．A．This will help you say "No" with ease．B．Be aware of potential persuasion techniques．C．Find a good chance to stand in front of a crowd．D．It's always easier to say "No" if you have a reason．E．Try standing before a mirror and looking at yourself．F．It's rather easy for you to set up your personal boundaries．G．If someone asks you a favor，you may feel you have to say "Yes"．16.

The flirtatious “wink and kiss” and “sad face with a tear” emojis respectively rounded out the top five.The software maker on Thursday released the findings from its 2021 Global Emoji Trend Report ahead of World Emoji Day on Saturday.Adobe’s latest Emoji Trend report also examined the three most misunderstood emojis in the world. The “eggplant” symbol edged out the “peach” and the “clown” emojis respectively as the most confusing for users.The vast majority of emoji users (90%) believe the modern —day hieroglyphs make it easier for them to express themselves. Eighty — nine percent of respondents said emojis simplify communicating across language barriers. And 67% said they think people who use emojis are friendlier, funnier and cooler than those who don’t. A slight majority of respondents said they are more comfortable expressing emotions through emojis than talking on the phone or in —person. More than half of global emoji users (55%) said using emojis in communications has positively impacted their mental health. Seventy — six percent of those surveyed said emojis are an important communication tool for creating unity, respect and understanding. And 88% said they feel more empathetic toward people who use emojis.1.What are the three most popular emojis according to the passage?A.clown thumbs up laugh out loudugh out loud thumbs up wink and kissugh out loud thumbs up red heartD.thumbs up red heart sad face with a tear2.Which emoji is the most confusing one for users?A.Peach.B.Eggplant.C.Clown.D.Wink and kiss.3.Which of the following best describes the attitude of most people surveyed to emojis?A.Favorable.B.Passive.C.Indifferent.D.Doubtful.BClara Daly was seated on an Alaska Airlines flight from Boston to Los Angeles when a flight attendant asked an urgent(紧急的) question over the loudspeaker: “Does anyone on board know American Body Language?” She knew she needed to help.Clara, 15 at the time, pressed the call button. The flight attendant came by and explained the situation. “We have a passenger on the plane who’s blind and deaf,” she said. The passenger seemed to want something, but he was traveling alone and the flight attendants couldn’t understand what he needed, according to PEOPLE magazine.Clara had been studying ASL for the past year to help with her dyslexia (阅读障碍) and knew she’d be able to spell on the man’s palm(手掌) by finger. So she unbuckled her seat belt, walked toward the front of the plane, and knelt by the aisle seat of Tim Cook, then 64. Gently taking his hand, she wrote, “How are you? Are you OK?” Cook asked for some water. When it arrived, Clara returned to her seat. She came by again a bit later because he wanted to know the time. On her third visit, she stopped and stayed for a while.“He didn’t need anything. He was lonely and wanted to talk,” Clara said. So for the next hour, that was what they did. She talked about her family and her plans for the future (she wants to be a politician). Cook told Clara how he had gradually become blind over time and shared stories of his days as a traveling salesman. Even though he couldn’t see her, she “looked attentively at his face with such kindness”, a passenger reported.“Clara was amazing,” a flight attendant told Alaska Airlines in a blog interview. “You could tell Cook was very excited to have someone he could speak to, and she was such a warm-hearted girl.” Cook’s reaction: “Best trip I’ve ever had.”Looking for ways to offer help? Start with this random(随时的) act of kindness that can change someone’s life right now.4. The flight attendant asked an urgent question because ________.A. the passenger was traveling aloneB. the plane was in a dangerous situationC. the passenger asked for something suddenlyD. none of the flight attendants could communicate with the passenger5. Why did Clara talk about her plans for the future?A. Because the flight attendant asked her to do so.B. Because she needed topics to go on talking with Cook.C. Because Cook hoped to understand teenagers better.D. Because she wanted to show her dream for the future.6. Which of the following words can best describe Clara?A. Kind and caring.B. Warm-hearted and brave.C. careful and calm.D. opened-minded and confident.7. The passage is mainly written to ________.A. tell a touching story of an amazing girlB. show the great importance of American Body LanguageC. encourage readers to give a hand kindly and randomlyD. show how kind the flight attendant was to help CookCAccording to a survey published by the American Institutes for Research last year, a total of 57 colleges were operating some form of CBE programs and about 85 percent of all the higher education officials said they were either designing a CBE program at their school or were considering doing so.Students in a CBE program choose a central field of study, just as they would at a traditional college or university. Yet instead of attending a series of classes led by professors or teaching assistants at schools, the students study online and direct themselves.CBE programs require students to show their understanding of a given set of sills Students must prove their mastery of skills that relate to their field of choice by taking related exams. Once they have met all the requirements of their study programs, the students will get their degrees.CBE programs have made use of many new technologies, especially internet and online media. This helps reduce barriers for nontraditional and other students by bringing higher education to them. And programs that permit students to work at their own speed may save students' money by reducing the time it takes for them to earn a degree.But some educators have concerns about the value of the education that CBE programs offer. Johann Neem atWesternWashingtonUniversityargues that the purpose of higher education is not simply to help students master certain skills. It should teach students how to think critically (批判性地) understand the subjects they are studying more deeply and see how they are connected to other subjects. Only that way can they put the knowledge tobetter use.He said, “You need to explore, think .. get shaken, have a conversation and struggle. Andthose things take time.”Instead of supporting CBE, he adds, policy makers and educators should look for ways to improve access and reduce costs for traditional higher education.8. How are CBE programs different from traditional college education?A. They require students to choose their subjects.B. They offer shorter curricula and are less expensive.C. They heavily rely on the information technologies.D. They allow students to take easier examinations.9. What can we learn from Johann Neem's words?A Free access to traditional education should be provided.B. Higher education just focuses on critical thinking skills.C. Students should spend longer time completing the degree courses.D. College students should be challenged to explore around their subjects.10. How does Johann Neem's attitude toward CBE programs?A. Supportive.B. Disapproving.C. Sympathetic.D. Uncaring.11. What is the author's purpose in writing the text?A. To press policy-makers to provide more affordable education.B. To show the disadvantages of the traditional college education.C. To introduce a new controversial trend in the higher education.D. To encourage educators to improve the quality of CBE programs.DUnderstanding the link between a clean environment and human life is not a new concept. In fact, it was noticed as early as ancient Rome. Today we see how green living has infiluenced our everyday lives. There is a growing community of people who embrace a zero waste lifestyle and make changes to the way they live to reduce their carbon footprint.Living a zero waste lifestyle means doing one’s best to achieve the aim of not sending anything to a landfill. People who adopt this lifestyle ultimately cut down on their waste by reducing what they need and want. Theyreuse what they own, sending few things to be recycled.Many people who adopt the zero waste lifestyle claim to be frustrated by the many harmful chemical substances found in beauty and cleaning products. They also find the uses of disposable items and excessive packaging. For example, how many times have we had to peel away layers of plastic wrap and cardboard before finally taking out the item which we had bought? Instead of buying pre-packed food and goods, those who identify with the zero waste philosophy tend to shop in stores that allow them to make purchases and bring their own cloth bags and glass jars to store their purchases.Many people may have the misconception that it is easier to live a zero waste lifestyle in the West. Nevertheless, Malaysian environmental journalist, Ms. Aurora Tin, has proven that a zero waste lifestyle is possible even in the Asian context. Instead of going to the supermarket to buy pre-packaged foods, Ms. Tin now visits the wet market and brings her own bags for vegetables. She has even stopped using store-bought toothpaste and makes her own toothpaste from coconut oil and baking soda. This lifestyle may be too big a change for the average person, but we could follow her suit to make gradual changes to our own lives.12. Which of the following is a zero waste lifestyle?A. Bringing a resuable container to take away food.B. Choosing appliances that cost less money.C. Turning off a device to stop using power.D. Classifying the garbage before throwing it away.13. What may disappoint a person who adopts a zero waste lifestyle?A. Recycable carboard.B. Excessive packaging.C. Glass jars to store purchases.D. Natural substances in cleaning products.14. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. How do people live a zero waste lifestyle.B. Why Ms. Tin chooses to live a zero waste lifestyle..C. We can also practice a zero waste lifestyle in Asia.D. It is easy to live a zero waste lifestyle in the West.15. What is the best title of the passage?A. Living a zero waste lifestyle.B. Going green ismore than a fashion.C. A zero waste lifetyle is easy to achieve.D. Making environmentally-conscious decisions.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

It needs NPS working experience.C“Anything you want, anytime you need it.”The message appeared on computer screens across the country at the same time, on the same day: December 12th, at 12 p.m.. Simultaneously, important looking envelopes containing cards with the same message were hand-delivered to the offices of all the major news companies.One found its way to the desk of Chris Lin, a business reporter at The Post. The card was beautifully designed – a black background with the words printed out in crisp white letters. There was no explanation on the back, just a website address.Chris went to the website. Its style was identical to the ca rd’s and said: “Anytime: Starting Tomorrow.”The next day websites and blogs were filled with articles theorising about Anytime. Was it a shopping website like Tao Bao or Amazon? A joke? Something illegal? Anytime’s marketing had worked – it was a househol d name before it’d even made a single sale.When the opening came, that day at noon, the Anytime website suddenly had a single field that read, “What do you want?” All you had to do was type the words into that box, and then specify how quickly you wanted your item delivered: within one, ten, or twenty-four hours.Bloggers were the first to test the service. And their reviews were glowing. Within weeks, Anytime had become a part of daily life. Nobody used other delivery sites or the post anymore as Anytime was much cheaper and faster.Chris still wondered what exactly Anytime was. He tried to find out who owned the company, but it was registered in a small country that did not require such information to be made public. He did find some interesting facts, though. Anyone who challenged the company, it seemed, met with serious trouble. A government official critical of Anytime for avoiding tax was forced to leave his position after news stories suddenly appeared claiming he was dishonest. The head of another company taking Anytime to court died in a car accident just days before the case was to begin.Chris began making a list of all the people who had something terrible happen to them after opposing or criticising Anytime. By lunch, he had more than one hundred examples. Something was definitely wrong. Chris worked on his list the rest of the day, emailing people who could provide more information and looking through newspaper records. After working through the night, an exhausted Chris finally fell asleep at his desk at 4 a.m..When he woke a few hours later, there was a message flashing on his computer screen: “Stop makingtrouble.” Chris smiled. He had no intention of stopping now that he knew he was on the right track.28. What was on the front of the card sent to Chris Lin?A. An invitation to a company opening.B. The website address of a new company.C. The words “Anytime:Starting tomorrow”.D. The words “Anything you want, anytime you need it”.29. Why did the company choose to send the cards to many news reporters?A. Because it didn’t have enough money for traditional advertising.B. Because it wanted to attract the reporters as customers.C. So the reporters would write stories about the new company.D. So people would find the new company interesting.30. What did Chris’ s research suggest about Anytime?A. It may be very dangerous.B. Its popularity would soon decrease.C. It was doing business all over the world.D. It was being widely criticised by journalists.31. How did Chris feel at the end of the story?A. Scared that he would get into trouble.B. Confident that he would find the truth.C. Nervous about what the company would do.D. Satisfied that he had discovered the company’s secret.DConnecting with people has become so much easier with advancing technology. Tasks that once required a postage stamp or carrier pigeon are now as simple as tapping a name or even a face on your screen, and you’re connected. But also easier is unconsciously getting caught up in a dilemma by violating certain new r ules for communicating. A big one for some: Don’t call until you’ve texted to confirm it’s OK to call. But that’s just the beginning.“I’m usually pretty mild and not much bothers me,” said Mark Angielle, a 29-year-old office manager from White Plains, New York. But the one thing that he hates more than anything else in life is the terrible one-word message —“K.” “At the very least reply with, Got it.” he said “At least give me a few wordshere. You’re not that busy.”There are hundreds, perhaps even thousands, of others who have taken Lo social media to express their distaste for people who don’t follow the unwritten rules of digital communication.“These rules are simply a new display of a phenomenon we’ve seen in the past,” said James Ivory, professor of communication a Virginia Tech. In the same way that generations and small groups of friends have their own slang and customs, internet culture has given birth to technology-dependent beings that have their own unique set of routine.But not everyone gets the point. Unlike language, digital communication can be filled with ambiguous clues (线索、迹象) that the person on the other end of the call, text or email may or may not easily understand.“As soon as people aren’t talking face to face, the first thing that gets lost is some of the richness of the body language,” Ivory said, “People immediate ly fill that gap by using emoji (表情符号) to sum up a feeling in seconds.“There's great potential for danger,” Ivory warned. “What's considered polite in one form might be inappropriate or rude in another occasion.”32. What can you infer about Mark from Paragraph 2?A. He is a businessman with a bad temper.B. He complains about social manners.C. He can’t bear one- word messages.D. He dislike a busy business life.33. According to the text, which of the following breaks the rules for communicating?A. John says “I got it.” to his boss face to face.B. Jim calls Bill without confirming in advance.C. Mary texts Lily to make sure if she can call her.D. Jack sends “Thanks a lot” to his business friends.34. Why may people misunderstand each other during digital communication?A. Emoji cannot sum up feelings.B. People use their own slang and customs.C. There are large quantities of written rules.D. People gets wrong messages without clear clues.35. What are people expected to do after reading tie passage?A. To obey their own digital communication rules.B. To be aware of rules during digital communication.C. To use advancing technology even with disadvantages.D. To keep pace with digital communication development.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
