2017年广州市广雅中学中考二模英语卷(1)DCoral reefs(珊瑚礁) and other organisms whose shells contain calcium carbonate may be particularly affected if the water's acidity levels keep going up, the team predict. They could find it much more difficult to build these structures in water with a lower PH.In recent years some people have suggested storing carbon dioxide from power stations in the deep ocean as a way of dealing with global warming. But Dr Caldeira said that such a strategy should now be re-considered. "Previously, most experts had looked at ocean absorption of carbon dioxide as a good thing-because in releasing CO2 into the atmosphere we warm the planet, and when CO2, is absorbed by the ocean, it reduces the amount of greenhouse warming.”41. The ocean is becoming more acidic due to___________.A. the lower water PH valueB. the warming atmosphereC. the higher level of CO2 in the airD. the increasing use of oil fuels42. According to Dr Caldeira,__________ .A. ocean absorption of carbon dioxide is a good thing.B. more oil fuels will be used in the near future.C. scientists may predict climate changes with computer models.D. the future situation of the amount of acidity is extremely serious.43. If the water's acidity level keeps rising_________.A. ocean life whose structures contain calcium carbonate may be affected.B. the waters’ PH value will become higher and higher.C. organisms living near the surface are more sensitive to PH changes.D. some disasters will occur more often than before.44. What does the underlined word “acidic” probably mean?A.污染的B.酸的C.复杂的D.温暖的45. The purpose of this passage is to_________.A. show people the findings of a research team.B. inform people of how acid the ocean is now.C. introduce Dr Caldeira and his team's research.D. warn people of the higher acidity level in the sea.第二节阅读填空(共5小题,每小题1分,满分5分)It feels like every time my mother and I start to have a conversation, it turns into an argument. We talk about something as simple as dinner plans and suddenly, my mother will push the conversation into World War III.

In fact, when I was pushed to say that I planned to major in English and communication, she nearly had a heart attack.“Why can’ t you be like my co-worker’s son?” she complains all the time. He r co-worker’s son received a four-year scholarship. He is now earning 70,000 dollars a year as an engineer, __47__ I simply can’t be like her co-worker’s son. I can’t be like him.

Cold weather during winter months may keep many people from 1 home and running in the open air. 2 , a new study shows 3 the drop in temperature is a good reason to run. In fact, researchers say, running in cold weather 4 improve one’s performance(身体机能). Many people say running in winter is difficult. Two reasons are the low temperatures and bitter winds. Yet many runners might find 5 easier than running in hot weather. That could be because lower temperatures reduce stress on the body. When you run in cold weather, your heart rate is 6 than in warmer conditions. Besides, the body needs less water 7 a cold day than in warm weather. This information comes from John Brewer, a sports scientist at St. Mary’s University in London. Brewer says every movement runners make produces heat. He explains that one way in which we lose heat 8 by sweating , and that the body also loses heat by transporting the blood to the surface of the skin. But sweating puts much strain(张力)on the heart, particularly in hot conditions because it is 9 harder to lose heat when the external environment is warm 10 .In addition, running in higher temperatures results in faster heart rates. Scientists found, 11 , that heart rates were about 6 percent higher in the hotter conditions. However, running in cooler temperatures has 12 advantages. One is that the body does not have to work so hard to pump blood to the 13 surface in cooler temperatures, which means running requires less energy. Several websites note that the most important thing for people 14 run in cold conditions is to wear the right clothing. And especially, keeping as dry as possible is very important 15 exercising in low temperatures. (294 words)( )1.A. leave B. leaving C. left D. to leave( )2.A. But B. Therefore C.

Later she found out that she should have just left the tea,an d that this would have meant that she had had enough. Influenced by her 9 culture,she felt it too 10 to leave the tea and could not understand why the host took no notice of her protests (抗议) that she had had enough!二、阅读理解3. 阅读理解Doctor Seuss was born in 1904. By the middle 1950s,he had become one of the best-loved and most successful childr en's book writers in the world. His books are very popular with young readers. They enjoy the invented words and the pictures of unusual funny animals and plants.In 1954,life magazine published a report about school children who could not read. The report said many children's booA new report says more and more international students are attending colleges and universities in the United States. It also notes a large increase in the number of international students from China.These findings are from the latest Open Doors Report. The report documents the record number of international studen ts in the United States during 2012,2013 school year. It says more than seven hundred sixty-four thousand four-hundred such students were attending American colleges and universities during the last two years. That represents an increase of almost six percent than one year earlier.On the other hand,the number of Americans studying overseas(海外) increased by one percent,which reached ninet een thousand this year.The report says one hundred ninety-four thousand students at American colleges and universities were from China. That is an increase of more than twenty-three percent over the year before. Peggy Blumenthal,an expert of international education, described the effect of the increase in Chinese students."Now they have been coming for some time. But this year was the highest level ever." She says many Chinese families are able to pay for the highest-quality education for their children. The children mainly choose to study in America."We know many of them have enough income to be able to afford to send them anywhere in the world that they want to go. And for the most part,looking around the world,Chinese students still prefer to come to the United States as their choice."Chinese students are not the only ones who want to attend American colleges and universities. After China,India sends the second largest number of students to the United States for higher education. India has about one hundred thousand stude nts in American schools. South Korea is third with about seventy-two thousand students.Why do so many foreign students study in the United States? Peggy Blumenthal provides one reason."The advantage America has is that we have a huge system and a very perfect system. So there are over four thousan d universities and colleges in the United States. Among them are some top ones in the world,and what that tells us is there is still a lot of room to host international students."Foreign students represent less than four percent of the total student population in American higher education.And from Learning English,that's the VOA Special English Education Report. I'm Bob Doughty. Thanks for listening.(1) Bob Doughty seems to be ________.(2) Which country below has the fewest students studying overseas?(3) Which is NOT the reason why so many Chinese students go to the USA for further study?(4) Which of the following statement is true?(5) This passage from VOA Special English is most likely to be ________.6. 阅读理解VisasTravelers to France must have a valid passport (有效护照). Visitors from EEC (欧共体) countries and America do not need visas,but visitors from other countries should contact the nearest French consulate (领事馆) or tourist office about gettin g one before travelling.ArrivalYou could arrive at one of the two airports serving Paris.Charles de Gaulle is bigger and more modern. You can take a comfortable and inexpensive Air France bus to Porte Mi llot in the 16th district,then take a bus ,the Metro or a taxi to your hotel. There are also city buses (No. 350 and 351) which go i nto Eastern Paris,Nation and the Gare de Train Station. A taxi takes about 40 to 50 minutes to reach the centre,and costs ab out 170 Francs. Add another 30 minutes for rush hours.Orly is the other major airport,which have mostly domestic (国内的) flights. Air France buses go to the Invalides Terminal,a convenient drop off place,where you can take the Metro or RER directly. A city bus (Orly bus) comes into the southern en d of Paris at the Denfer-Rochereau Metro Station every 15 minutes.

Post- it Notes, the pieces of paper that you can fasten almost anywhere and then remove without leaving any sign that they were there, are an example of such an invention.Post-it Notes were invented 20 years ago by Art Fry, a scientist at 3M Company. The idea came from a frustrating experience while singing. Fry used pieces of paper as bookmarks to mark the places in his book of songs, but these bookmarks were always falling out. He knew he needed a bookmark that would stay where he put it without damaging the pages.Around that time, Fry heard that his workmate, Dr. Spence Silver had created a new adhesive (粘合剂) which was special because it was sticky, but not too sticky. It was strong enough to hold papers together, but weak enough to not tear the paper when it was removed. Fry saw that the new adhesive could help solve his bookmark problem. One morning, Fry put some of the adhesive on the top of a piece of paper. Just as he hoped, it made a perfect bookmark.Later, Fry realized that his new invention can also be used as a great bookmark. He came to this idea when he wrote a note on one of his new “bookmarks” and attached it to a report he was going to give to a workmate. Soon, the workmate asked Fry for more samples of his invention so that they could use the new type of notes themselves.When some salespeople at 3M went to offices and showed workers just how helpful the new type of notes could be, they immediately received many orders. As more and more people discovered how useful Post-it Notes could be, the product took off.46. The invention of Post-it Notes showed that Art Fry .A. had a lot of knowledgeB. was very hard-workingC. was good at creative thinkingD. loved his job in the church47. In what way did Dr. Spence help Art Fry?A. They worked together and often discussed science.B. His invention of a special adhesive made Art’s inventio n possible.C. He persuaded 3M Company to give away lots of Post-it Notes for trial use.D. He cooperated with Art by providing the new adhesive for Art.48. Which of the following is a possible use of Post-it Notes?A. A note on a friend’s doorB. An e-mail to a friendC. A postcard from abroadD. An ad in a newspaper49. What does the underlined part mean?A. The products started to leave the ground.B. The products disappeared from the market.C. The products had even more uses.D. The products became popular very quickly.50. The biggest advantage of Post-it Notes is that .A. it can leave no sign when removedB. it is very cheap to useC. it is good to write notes onD. it is very thin and beautiful(B)A store owner was putting up a sign above his door that said “dogs for sales”. Signs like that have a way of attracting small children, and sure enough, a little boy appeared under the store owner’s sign. “How much are you going to sell the dogs for?” he asked.The store owner replied, “Anywhere from $30 to $50.”The little boy reached in his pocket and pulled out some change. “I have $2.37,” he said, “Coul d Ilook at them?”The store owner smiled and took the boy to the dog nest. To our surprise, the little boy selected limping dog and said, “What’s wrong with that little dog?”The store owner explained that a doctor had examined the little dog and had discovered it don’t have a hip socket(膝盖骨). It would always limp.The little boy became excited, “That’s the dog I want to buy.”The store owner said, “No, you don’t want to buy that little dog. If you really want him, I will just give him to y ou.”The little boy got quite upset. He looked straight into the store owner’s eyes, pointing his finger, and said, “I don’t want you to give him to me. That little dog is worth as much as all the other dogs and I’ll pay full price. In fact, I will giv e you $2.37 now, and 50 cents a month until I have paid all the money for him. ”The store owner said, “You really don’t want to buy this little dog. He is never going to be able to run and jump and play with you like the other dogs.”To his surprise, the little boy revealed a badly, disabled left leg supported by a big metal brace. He looked up at the store owner and softly replied, “Well, I don’t run so well myself, and the little dog will need someone who understand!”We all need someone who understands!51.

However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your choice of sports might have great influence on the environment.Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas ofcountryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its course in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry areas of Portugal and Spain, golf is often responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don’t need anything special except a good pair of shoes; and you don’t have to think about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control.Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be “green gyms”. They are better choices than traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gym play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it’s free.56. What does the underlined word course mean?A. 课程B. 球场C. 进程D. 一道菜57. What do we know about golf from the passage?A. It needs water and energy to keep it work.B. It causes water shortages around the world.C. It pollutes the earth with chemicals and wastesD. It is popular in Portugal and Spain.58.

According to the passage, which of the following is an environment-friendly sport?A. Cycling around a lakeB. Motor racing in the desertC. Playing basketball in a gymD. Swimming in a sports center60. The passage mainly .A. shows us the function of major sportsB. encourages us to go in for green sportsC. discusses the major influence of popular sportsD. introduces different types of green sports( D)Jack is a clerk of a bookstore. Here is the note from his boss, Ben, Jack has to decide what books to order according to the following note and the descriptions of the books.Hi Jack,You must hand in the order list of books to me by the first working day of every month.

An Embarrassing MomentCLike a lot of young people.Joanna Rakoff took the first job she was offered.She decided to work at one of New York's oldest literary agencies.Yet she had no idea that it would be the first stepping stone on the way to becoming a writer,and later,the novelist she is today.In the face of the ups and downs,she gave it her all.She can still remember that her boss was very challenging."The thing that worked when my boss was being difficult was remembering it wasn't personal.Usually,it's not about you,it's them," she advises anyone in a similar situation.Being a manager and editor herself later in her career also helped to understand what happened years before."It's really hard managing a lot of people.I had a lot more sympathy for my former boss after that.You don't know everything that's going on with them,and remember:they're a person,too," she says.After only a year,Rakoff realized she was not "an agency person" as her manager had believed,but the seed had been planted.She left with dreams of becoming a writer and a real understanding of the world of glossy (亮丽光鲜的)magazines.Rakoff rose from writing magazine articles to features editor,and latereditor-in-chief.Dreams of one day writing fiction remained."Writing pieces for magazines really helped me to become an author.It helped make writing less scary.When you write regularly and have deadlines,it really teaches you that sometimes you have to sit down and just do it," she says.With all the pressure on young people these days,it is important to remember you don't have to be in the perfect job right away.What's more,you don't need to know what you want to be or do for a career as soon as you finish high school or college.Rakoff explains how many of her very successful friends found different paths toward becoming fiction writers.There isnothing wrong with having a job to keep you busy and pay the bills while you figure out your passions,she says.34.What did Joanna Rakoff do when she was offered the first job?______A.

And I just watched my brother scribble in the book. Now, he and I were both sure that my father would be very angry and we both waited for our father’s punishment.My father picked up his book and looked at it carefully. I thought my father would hit my brother or at least shouted to us loudly. However, he was not angry and didn’t punish us, but took the pen and wrote in the book: John’s work, 1986, age 2. Then my father thanked my brother for scribbling in his book. He said my brother made the book special and meaningful. We were both surprised.

Perhaps a piano is too expensive for you to afford. Now, thanks to a program in Sydney called “Play me, I’m yours”, people are able to play the piano in public places for free. They share beautiful music, and the program also helps them communicate with each other.Thirty pianos have been placed in different parts of the city, including in several parks, at a bus stop and on some streets. The pianos have the logo “Play me, I’m yours” on them. People are invited to play music or sing songs with the pianos, no matter what level of ability theyhave. Lots of people have been attracted to the program and stopped to watch or play the pianos.“Play me, I’m yours” is a part of the Sydney Festival. It is a project of the British artist, Luke Jerram. He wants to help people in the city connect with each other. He thinks that so many people are sitting in front of computers and busy with their work all hours, and they almost have no chance to enjoy music. So the purpose of the project is to help them relax and make new friends.The program “Play me, I’m yours” has also reached England and Brazil. It was warmly welcomed there. But its greatest success seems to come at the Sydney Festival. “It’s a chance for people to be creative, connect with strangers and just have some fun.” Jerram said.36.

A Program “Play me, I’m yours”D"The world's oceans are slowly getting more acidic,” say scientists. The researchers fromCalifornia report that the change is taking place in response to higher levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.The lowering of the waters’ PH value is not great at the moment but could cause a serious threat to current ocean life if it continues, they warn. Ken Caldeira and Michael Wickett, from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, report their concerns in the journal Nature.Increasing use of oil fuels means more carbon dioxide is going into the air, and most of it will eventually be absorbed by sea water. Once in the water, it reacts to form carbonic acid. Scientists believe that the oceans have already become slightly more acidic over the last century.These researchers have tried to predict what will happen in the future by combining what we know about the history of the oceans with computer models of climate change."This level of acidity will get much more extreme in the future if we continue releasing CO2 into the atmosphere," said Dr Caldeira. "And we predict the amount of future acidity will exceed anything we have seen over the last several hundred million years, let alone perhaps after rare disasters such as asteroid impacts.”However, it is not absolutely clear what that means for ocean life.Most organisms live near the surface, where the greatest PH change would be expected to occur, but deep-ocean life forms may be more sensitive to PH changes. Coral reefs(珊瑚礁) and other organisms whose shells contain calcium carbonate may be particularly affected if the water's acidity levels keep going up, the team predict. They could find it much more difficult to build these structures in water with a lower PH.In recent years some people have suggested storing carbon dioxide from power stations in the deep ocean as a way of dealing with global warming. But Dr Caldeira said that such a strategy should now be re-considered. "Previously, most experts had looked at ocean absorption of carbon dioxide as a good thing-because in releasing CO2 into the atmosphere we warm the planet, and when CO2, is absorbed by the ocean, it reduces the amount of greenhouse warming.”41. The ocean is becoming more acidic due to___________.A. the lower water PH valueB. the warming atmosphereC. the higher level of CO2 in the airD. the increasing use of oil fuels42. According to Dr Caldeira,__________ .A. ocean absorption of carbon dioxide is a good thing.B. more oil fuels will be used in the near future.C. scientists may predict climate changes with computer models.D. the future situation of the amount of acidity is extremely serious.43. If the water's acidity level keeps rising_________.A. ocean life whose structures contain calcium carbonate may be affected.B. the waters’ PH value will become higher and higher.C. organisms living near the surface are more sensitive to PH changes.D. some disasters will occur more often than before.44. What does the underlined word “acidic” probably mean?A.污染的B.酸的C.复杂的D.温暖的45. The purpose of this passage is to_________.A. show people the findings of a research team.B. inform people of how acid the ocean is now.C. introduce Dr Caldeira and his team's research.D. warn people of the higher acidity level in the sea.第二节阅读填空(共5小题,每小题1分,满分5分)It feels like every time my mother and I start to have a conversation, it turns into an argument.
