Disapproving.DAn experimental cleanup device called RemoveDEBRIS has successfully cast a net around a dummy (仿真的)satellite,imitating a technique that could one day collect spaceborne garbage.The test,which was carried out this week,is widely believed to be the first successful demonstration of space cleanup technology,experts told CNN.And it symbolizes an early step toward solving what has already been a critical issue:junk in space.Millions of pieces of junk are turning around in orbit,the result of 50 years of space travel and few regulations to keep space clean.At orbital speeds,even a small bit of paint crashing with a satellite can cause critical damage.Various companies have plans to send thousands of new satellites into low-Earth orbit,already the most crowded area.The RemoveDEBRIS experiment is run by a company and researchers led by the U.K.'sSurrey Space Center and includes Airbus,Airbus-owned Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd.and France's ArianeGroup.Guglielmo Aglietti,the director of Surrey Space Center,said that an operational versionof the RemoveDEBRlS technology would cast a net that remains fastened to the main satellite so the debris can be dragged out of orbit.It could target large pieces of junk,including dead satellites up to 10 meters long.The RemoveDEBRIS satellite will conduct a few more experiments in the coming months,including testing navigation features that could help guide the satellite to a specific piece of debris.Jonathan McDowell,an astrophysicist at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics,said the success of this week's experiment was exciting,but he cautioned against "over- publicizing" it.There are still enormous barriers to clear before operational cleanup tasks are underway,he said,and the most discouraging is figuring out how to fund such projects.Aglietti,the Surrey professor who helped lead the RemoveDEBRIS project,said "The challenge will lie in persuading the relevant authorities to sponsor these tasks." Aglietti said he hopes RemoveDEBRIS will conduct a few cleanup tasks per year,targeting the largest pieces of junk in the most crowded orbits.12. What is the use of the RemoveDEBRIS satellite?______A. Demonstrating space technology.B. Imitating a developing technique.C. Collecting wastes existing in space.D. Symbolizing great progress in space.13. How does the RemoveDEBRlS satellite work?______A. By throwing a net to take the junk from orbit.B. By fastening it to the main satellite tightly.C. By dragging satellites up to 10 meters long.D. By targeting large pieces of junk carefully.14. What does the underlined word "sponsor" in the last paragraph probably mean?______A. Accomplish.B. Support.C. Oppose.D. Provide.15. What's the best title for the text?______A. The RemoveDEBRIS Project Is PerfectB. How RemoveDEBRIS Is Invented in the LabC. Why the RemoveDEBRIS Satellite Is InventedD. Satellite Collects Space Junk for the First Time二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Babies have the charm to melt anybody's heart instantly;no one escapes the twinkling eyes or the innocent smile.Just their presence will cheer you up,make you forget your worries and tempt you to indulge into their world.(1) Though I don't have any answer to the question ,I wonder as to what makes their aura so desirable.And I think there is something we can learn from the young ones.Forgive and ForgetBabies can laugh and giggle all day because they don't keep hatred against anyone.(2)Do you think they've constructed an evil plan against you because you refused them candy last time?Probably not,life moved on and so did they.So why do we hold on to our past and refuse to let go of the emotional baggage?Does it do us any good except prevent us from laughing to the fullest?(3)Endless questions of young kids can sometimes be enough to drain the adult mind.They are always busy wondering how things work or why things are the way they are,leaving no room for boredom.Their curiosity gives them an exponential learning curve;they pick up new things quickly and do not refuse to change.Unconditional Love(4) T hey don't judge you before they come running into your knees and they don't walk away if you don't give them the same in return.They have no expectations from you and simply do what their heart desires.If you want a hug,they'll give you a hug;if you want two,they'll give you two.So how does the adult world become so materialistic that we decide what we give based on what we think we might receive?Living life to the fullest is not a difficult task;you just need to have the right attitude and an open mind.(5)A.Keep smile every dayB.Never-ending CuriosityC.What can we do to free from these worries?D.Why do we adore the young ones so much?E.So don't envy the peaceful life of a baby,start living it yourself!F.Kids have a hug and a kiss for anyone and everyone who wants one.G.Their heart is pure and their mind empty to laugh out loud and enjoy the moment.A.

高考英语模拟试卷(一)题号I II III IV V VI总分得分一、阅读理解(本大题共15小题,共30.0分)AThe Worlds' Best Bookshops There's nothing like being surrounded by books,wherever you are.Here are the finest oases of literature that travellers can bring you.Daikanyama T-site | TokyoIt is well worth visiting even if just to admire the building's beautiful,crisscrossed architecture.Once you've had your fill of roaming three floors' worth of bookshelves,there's the bar,the coffee shop,or even the video rental space to give you more reason to stay just that little bit longer.Grab a book,order a beer and dive into its pages.I could have stayed hours here.City Lights | San FranciscoThe three-storey establishment publishes and sells titles in poetry,fiction,translation,politics,history and the arts.It hosts events and readings,and runs a non-profit of the same name that aims to promote diversity of voices and ideas in literature.It's opposite Vesuvio,a bar frequented by Kerouac and other Beat-generation writers and artists.Shakespeare and Company | ParisI made a special trip to the Left Bank for this one when I was in Paris.It has two floors packed with English-language texts,and I was particularly struck by any spare wall space devoted to notes from visitors - heartfelt messages to a loved one,dedications to the shop itself,or a quote from a favourite author or philosopher.Hutatma Chowk | MumbaiA few years ago I visited India,investigating Rudyard Kipling's connections with the country.I spotted a cheap copy of The Jungle Book on one of the tarp-covered book stalls at Hutatma Chowk (Martyrs' Square).The booksellers here are like amateur librarians,able to lay their hands on almost any title you ask for.To me,those well-thumbed (翻旧了的)books spoke volumes about the changes of Mumbai's readers in the 150 years since the city gave us Kipling.1.In which bookshop can you buy a drink while visiting?______A. Daikanyama T-siteB. City LightsC. Shakespeare and CompanyD. Hutatma Chowk2.What can be learned about the book stalls at Hutatma Chowk?______A. People can meet Rudyard Kipling there.B. They sell the cheapest books in the world.C. The book owners are amateur librarians.D. The sellers are familiar with the books.3.What do the four bookstores have in common?______A.

They are frequently visited by great writers.Howard Weistling wanted to be a comic strip (连环漫画)artist.But when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor,he joined the Army.After flight engineer training,Howard was shipped off to Europe.On his maiden flight,his plane was shot down over Austria.The entire crew of eight men landed safely.But a farmer found Howard hiding in his barn and turned him over to a prison of war camp in Barth,Germany.It was freezing and the men almost starved to death eating the guards' garbage.Hungry and homesick Howard coped the only way he knew how.He drew a comic strip.The book,made of cigarette wrappers bound together with scrap metal,was sent around the camp.Every couple of days he would add a new panel.One panel at a time would be passed around the whole camp.And they'd have something to look forward to.After an entire year of this,they woke one morning to find their guards gone.They fled and Howard finally got to go home.Just lucky to get out alive,he left the book behind.Back home in California,Howard soon had a wife and kids to feed so he had to set aside his dream of becoming an artist.He took a job as a gardener instead.Morgan shared his father's artistic gifts.At 15 his parents sent him to art school.And Howard got to see his son become a well-known painter before he died in 2002.That's how,seven decades after the war,when a stranger in New York googled the name "Weistling," he found Morgan online."I get an email from a gentleman and he says,‘ I think I may have some drawings your father did when he was a POW (prisoner of war)in World War II,'" Morgan recalls."‘Would you like them?' And I just stared at that email and started crying."Luckily Howard had engraved his name on the comic book,which is how the man from New York City had connected with Morgan.A couple of days later when it arrived in California,Morgan couldn't believe it."It was like getting my father back," Morgan says."It was like him being able to tell me the story over again - only this time it was real in my hands."4.The passage details Howard's life as a POW to show that ______ .A. war cannot stop his pursuit of successB. passion for art helped ease his sufferingsC. loss of freedom encouraged his creativityD. misery drives him to fight against his fate5.What can we infer about Howard's comic strip in prison?______A. It satisfied prisoners' curiosity.B. It aroused the guards' sympathy.C. It was popular among the prisoners.D. It raised prisoners' confidence in freedom.6.What contributes to the stranger's success in finding Morgan?______A. The email from a gentleman.B. Howard's experience in the war.C. Morgan's recalling of his father.D. Morgan's status in the field of art.7.What can we infer about Morgan from the last paragraph?______A. He didn't believe the stranger's story.B. He was excited to get the comic strip.C. He couldn't wait to tell others his good news.D. He hadn't heard about his father's war stories.Your brain isn't necessarily the same age as the rest of you.Now,it may be possible to predict how quickly a person's brain will age throughout life based on tests taken when he or she is three years old.A person's biological age may be a better indicator of their health than their real age.Brain age can be measured using brain scans and machine-learning to determine if a person's brain looks older or younger than the average healthy brain for people of the same age.To find out if brain age might reveal anything about a person's health in midlife,Max Elliott at Duke University in North Carolina and his colleagues assessed the brains of 869 adults in New Zealand who have undergone regular medical and cognitive (认知的)testing since they were 3 years old.When the volunteers,all aged between 43 and 46,underwent MRI brain scans,the team found that their brain ages ranged from 23 to 71.Those with older brain ages performed worse on tests of cognition,memory and IQ.The researchers also found that some people have a very advanced brain age but their bodies seem to be ageing slowly,and vice versa (反之亦然).However,the team found that those who had the highest scores on cognitive tests when they were 3 years old went on to have the youngest-looking brains.This suggests we might be able to tell who is at risk of accelerated brain ageing early in life.Researchers hope that predicting brain ageing earlier in life could allow treatments for conditions like dementia (痴呆)to be started sooner.This means treatments might have a better chance of working.We don't yet have a way to treat brain ageing,but given the known benefits to the brain of healthy eating and exercise,these aren't a bad place to start.8.What helps predict the speed of one's brain ageing?______A. One's health condition.B. A test result at the age of 3.C. The actual age of one's brain.D. A machine for medical check.9.What is the purpose of Elliott's research?______A. To find out why people look older or younger.B. To measure people's brain age at different stages.C. To discover whether brain age can be measured by machines.D. To explore the relationship between brain age and future health.10.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?______A. The influence of cognitive tests.B. The procedure of Elliott's study.C. The information about volunteers.D. The findings of the brain research.11.What do the findings of the research imply?______A. We should test our brain age earliest possible.B. People suffering dementia can go on working.C. Brain ageing could be predicted at an early age.D. Healthy eating and exercise can cure brain ageing.DOne of the most popular beliefs in parenting is the so-called Mozart effect,which says that listening to music by the Austrian composer Wolfgang Mozart can increase a child'sintelligence.Some pregnant women have even gone so far as to play Mozart recordings on headphones pressed against their bellies.And it's not hard to see how Mozart's name became associated with accelerated development.He was history's greatest child genius,performing astonishing music for kings and queens at an age when many of us were content with tuneless singing "I'm a Little Teapot".So,if you have kids or you're expecting to have them,how seriously should you take the Mozart effect?Will the child who doesn't listen to Mozart in the cradle (摇篮)be limited to an ordinary life?Are you a bad parent if your kids don't know about any works of Mozart?Relax.There is no scientific evidence that listening to Mozart improves children's cognitive abilities.The whole idea comes from a small study done in 1993,which found that college students who listened to Mozart's Sonata for Two Pianos in D Major (K 448)showed some improvement in a test of spatial (空间的)skills.This finding was later described as something extremely amazing by a musician,Don Campbell,in a book.Campbell's claims about the super powers of Mozart's music were repeated endlessly in the media and fueled a craze for Mozart-based enrichment activities.In 1998,for example,the governor of Georgia in the USA requested funds to send classical-music CDs to all parents of newborns in the state.Since then,scientists have examined the claim that Mozart increases intelligence and found no evidence for it.The original experiment with college students was reviewed in 1999,and the increase in the students' spatial skills was found to be negligible.In 2007 the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research asked a team of experts to examine the scientific literature regarding Mozart and child development,and they found no reason to believe that it increased intelligence.12.People relate Mozart to children's intelligence development because he ______ .A. owned extraordinary music talentB. could perform music as a childC. offered music to pregnant womenD. was an royal Austrian composer13.What can we know about the small study in 1993?______A. It added to the popularity of Mozart's music.B. It found no evidence for supporting Mozart effect.C. It helped college students make academic progress.D. It urged Georgia's governor to spread classical music.14.What does the underlined word "negligible" probably mean?______A. Sudden.B. Insignificant.C. Average.D. Steady.15.What can be the best title for the text?______A. New Findings:Mozart Effect to Be ProvedB. Secrets Uncovered:History of Mozart EffectC. Does Listening to Mozart Make Kids Smarter?D. How Does Mozart Improve Kids' Intelligence?二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Your comfort zone is a behavioral space where your activities and behaviors fit a routine and pattern that minimizes stress and risk.(1) You benefit in obvious ways:regular happiness,low anxiety,and reduced stress.Leaving your comfort zone can have very positive results,though.For one thing,you'll surely be more productive if you're willing to move out of it.With the sense of unease that comes from having deadlines and expectations,you'll have the drive and ambition to do moreand learn new things.(2) For another,learning to live outside your comfort zone can prepare you for life changes that force you out of it.Fear and uncertainty always exist in our life.By challenging yourself to things you normally wouldn't do,you can experience some of that uncertainty in a controlled and manageable environment.While outside your comfort zone can be a good place to be,(3) .You can start by doing everyday things differently.For example,you can take a different route to work or try a new restaurant.Besides,you should remember to break out in small steps.You get the same benefits whether you go with long strides (大步)or you start slow.If you're socially anxious,don't suppose you have to gather the courage to ask your crush (爱慕之人)on a date right away.(4) Identify your fears,and then face them step by step.Trying new things is difficult,so it's important to understand how habits form and how we can break them.(5)A.It provides a state of mental security.B.it's of great necessity to find ways to break out of itC.it's a pleasant experience to stay in the comfort zoneD.You have to manage that stress and risk in a clever way.E.Just say hello to them and see where you can go from there.F.That means you will get more done and find smarter ways to work.G.And it's as important to press yourself out of your comfort zone by doing specific things.16.

It’s been said that JK Rowling wrote the Harry Potter books (21)________(sit) in one in Edinburgh.Many people spend hours in these places nursing a coffee as they work away on their laptops.But if you’re spending all day buying one expensive coffee after another and (22) ________ (not sell)your first novel yet, the costs can really add up. For those who work outside of a traditional office or just want to take time out, there’s a new alternative in London: a pay-per-minute cafe.You can stay for as long as you like in the Ziferblat coffee shop. You'll be given a clockwhen you come in to keep time. When you leave, you return the item and pay the bill. The cost of hanging out, eating, working and meeting new people in the place is 3 pence per minute—or £1.80 an hour. The shop’s owner, Ivan Meetin, says: ‘‘Everything is free, (23) ________the time you spend there”. Customers help (24) ________to coffee and cookies. They can also bring their own food to eat when (25) ________ (connect) to the Internet through Wi-Fi.Meetin’s customers clearly are not the types who rush to work with a paper cup (26) ________ (drink) from at their desks. They are there for the atmosphere. Informality is at the heart of Meetin’s concept. He’s always loved the idea of building his own house. “With my mates,we were building treehouses (27)________rules of society didn't exist, he says.Meetin believes his coffee shop is a bit like “social media”, but with a face. Like-minded people go there to socialize. Some feel so much at home (28) ________they wash the dishes.I'd like to try it at least once. Who knows---I (29) ________even start writing my own novel. (30) ________coffee shops are good enough for JK Rowling to spend quality time in, why can't I? Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can onlySnow school closures ‘no harm to learning’Closing schools on occasional days because of bad weather does not damage learning, research shows. The research wanted to find an answer to the winter argument about whether schools should _____31____ to stay open in heavy snow or shut their doors. Seven years of school test data showed no evidence that snow closures negatively affected results. The worst disruption was caused when schools tried to stay open but many staff and pupils were____32_____. The study, carried out by Joshua Goodman, assistant professor of public policy at the Harvard Kennedy School in Massachusetts in the US, was an attempt to ____33_____ the impact of school days lost to bad weather.Almost as soon as the first winter snowflake falls, there are debates about whether schools should be kept open. The study suggests there are _____34____ arguments for them being closed. Prof Goodman was asked by the Massachusetts education department to find out whether there really was any loss to learning from snow closures. Looking at test results in the US state between 2003-10, he found no evidence that pupil _____35____ had been affected when schools were occasionally shut. A former high school teacher himself, Prof Goodman says schools can easily adapt to short-term closures, ____36_____their plans for the rest of the term. Such a clean break seemed to cause less disruption than trying to stay open, when many pupils might not be able to get into school. This creates a knock-on effect of pupils trying to catch up, he says. And this does seem to have a negative impact on results. Prof Goodman says that arguments over a few days of snow closures can often become very “emotional”---and they_____37____ that many pupils miss a greater number of school days through other types of absenteeism, such as____38_____. Such absenteeism by individuals does negatively affect their results, he says, more than an occasional _____39____ closure by the whole school. This good news for pupils wanting an authorised day off was ____40_____ by Prof Goodman: “Closures have no impact. Absences do.”III.Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Obviously, I did not feel so ready for the early races in my career as the races we’ve done recently. There is a lot to be said for just gaining experience—just getting out there and getting your feet wet teaches you the right skills and ____41_____ .It’s often not the most____42_____ prepared or the fittest teams but the teams who race intelligently and adapt to unexpected situations that win. To achieve this you have to be_____43____and patient. The only way to develop those _____44____is to get out and race or do long training trips with your team-mates and friends.Adventure races are such a huge ____45_____that when you enter a race you always think, “Am 1 ready? Did I train enough? Did I forget something?” I remember one race in particular, my very first Eco-Challenge and only my second race ever. When I did it, I felt totally _____46____ and unprepared. Most of my fear was due to lack of_____47____ and knowledge. I really had no idea what I was getting in to because I had never done a 24-hour race before. Even so, we won it somehow, and were invited to compete in the Eco-Challenge in Australia.Then we went to Australia and entered the race. We didn’t plan a _____48____ at all, but just ran as fast as possible from the start. Keeping my mouth shut and following my team-mates, I just tried to keep up with my team, who were more experienced than I was. Although we arrived at a few of the check points in first place and were among the top five, I knew we didn't ____49_____ there.______50___ , two of my team-mates decided not to continue the race after just a day and a half. One was feeling ill—he was just too tired to carry on, while another had severe problems with his feet but we had been going so fast that he felt ____51_____asking us to stop so he could take care of his blisters (水泡). The other two of us, feeling fresh still, had to ____52_____ with the rest of our team. Four days later, we watched in____53_____as the winners crossed the finishing line. I knew that our team had not been prepared or realistic about the pace we could keep, but not finishing that race was the most ___54______ lesson I could have learned.I _____55____ then to come back one day and finish the race, which was seven years—and thousands of race miles---ago.41.

A. annoyance B. excitement C. relief D. disappointment54. A. unexpected B. costly C. valuable D. specific55. A. promised B. requested C. offered D. agreedSection BDirections: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Who wants to be a millionaire? has been one of the most popular television quiz shows in Britain. In the show, the host asks a question and gives the contestant four possible answers. If the contestant gets the right answer, they win the money say £100—and then go on to the next question for, say, £250. The money increases for each question until, if the contestant has answered all the other questions correctly, the prize for the final question is one million pounds.In this extract from a show some years ago, the host of the show is television personality Chris Tarrant. Answering the questions is an ex-army officer, Charles Ingram.TARRANT: What kind of garment is an ‘Anthony Eden’?An overcoat, hat,shoe,tie?INGRAM: I think it is a hat.A cough from the audience.INGRAM: Again Tm not sure. I think it is ...Coughing from the audience.INGRAM: I am sure it is a hat. Am I sure?Coughing from the audience.INGRAM: Yes, hat, ifs a hat.In that show, Charles finally won a million pounds. But something wasn’t quite right. Charles Ingram didn't really seem very sure of himself; he obviously didn't know the answer at first. To many in the audience that night, it seemed as if he frequently repeated an answer as if waiting for a signal.He was.Charles Ingram's wife Diana was in the audience, and so too was a man with the extraordinary name of Tecwen Whittock. He had a bad cough. But a man sitting next to him in theaudience noticed that there was something strange about the cough. It was too loud, and it wasn't very regular. It only happened occasionally, almost as if he was coughing on purpose.He was.The three of them, Charles Ingram, Diana Ingram and Tecwen Whittock, had planned the whole thing. Whittock coughed to tell Charles when he had the correct answer. They began to notice it in the television control room, but at first they didn't believe it. In the end, though, it was just too obvious, and when tapes from the programme were played to a court in London a year later, there was no doubt. Charles and Diana Ingram were guilty of cheating on a game show. They were given prison sentences of 18 months and fined £15,000 each. Tecwen Whittock was sentenced to 12 months in prison and fined £10,000.Did the Ingrams and Tecwen Whittock get an appropriate sentence? How ‘bad' is it to cheat a television quiz show in which winning money is a matter of chance anyway? It is crimes like this that challenge our concepts of what is right and what is wrong, and since administering justice in the courts means that we have to decide on how serious something is (is robbery more or less serious than driving too fast, for example), the case of the cheating Ingrams is an excellent one to consider.56.We can learn from the extract of the show that Charles was his answer.A.pleased withB. surprised atC. sure ofD. hesitant over57.The pronoun “He”(in paragraph 7) refers to__________.A.Charles IngramB. Tecwen WhittockC.the man sitting next to Charles IngramD. the man sitting next to Tecwen Whittock58.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.The three people were given the same fine and sentence. 'B.Diana Ingrain let Tecwen know which choice was correct.C.Tecwen told Charles which answer was right by coughing.D.It was the Ingrams that made the first plan for the cheating.59.According to the writer, what is the point of the case?A.It can offer a perspective to judge the severity level of crimes.B.It has been the first cheating case that is related to reality shows.C.It achieved the purpose of having the court reconsider the sentencing.D.It may serve as a warning for those who also want to do the same thing.(B)Read the two people’s quotes below and answer the questions that follow.Dr Michio KakuPhysicist and professor40,000 people will work in spaceDr Michio Kaku is a professor at the City College of New York and a graduate of Harvard University. His book, The Physics of the Impossible, is about how science fiction technology may be possible in the future.‘By 2030, space tourism will almost certainly be common and around 40,000 people willwork in space. A company called the Space Island Group is planning to build an international space station with hotels, research facilities, restaurants and sports arenas (for new zero-gravity sports). Other companies are working on similar projects. And what language will people speak in space? Well, it probably won’t matter because there is likely to be a tiny computer that fits in your ear and translates what you hear into your own language/Ray KurzweilScientist, inventor, author and entrepreneur (企业家)Our brains will merge with machinesMany of Ray Kurzweil’s predictions about the future have come true. For example, in the early 1990s he predicted the growth of the Internet. Now Kurzweil believes that robots and humans will one day merge."The future will be far more surprising than most people realise. By the end of the 2030s, robots will be more intelligent than humans. Before that time, humans and machines will start to merge. We have 100 trillion very slow connections in our brain. Tiny robots (nanobots) will be implanted in our brains to improve our memory and our thinking skills. These nanobots will allow our brains to talk directly to computers, and they will also allow our brains to communicate wirelessly with other brains. Billions of nanobots will also travel through our bodies. They will keep us healthy. As a result, we will be able to live forever.'60.According to Dr Michio Kaku, what will no longer be a barrier for people working in space?A.Time.B. Internet.C. Language.D. Gravity.61.According to Ray Kurzweil, what will nanobots do?A.They will help save some of our memories.B.They will help some parts in our brain work better.C.They will help us develop a logic way of thinking.D.They will help detect what disease we are down with.62.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A.The future will surprise usB.The development of scienceC.Scientists worried about technologyD.Famous quotes about computers and the Internet(C)Digital assistants with anthropomorphic(拟人的)features, such as Siri, are increasingly common on phones and computers. Developing an emotional relationship with a piece of software can. However, cut both ways. As a study published in Psychological Science by Park Daeun, of Chungbuk National University in South Korea, and her colleagues, shows, one emotion sometimes involved in machine-human interaction is embarrassment.Dr Park and her team recruited 187 participants into their study. To start with each was presented with a series of statements on the changeability of intelligence. These included, “you have a certain amount of intelligence, and you can’t really do much to change it”,and “you can always substantially change how intelligent you are’, . Participants rated their responses to thesestatements on a six-point scale,on which one meant “strongly disagree,’ and six meant “strongly agree'\ The reason for this initial test was that Dr Park knew from previous work that those who believe intelligence to be changeable are comfortable asking for assistance while those who believe it to be fixed often feel ashamed to do so.The initial test done, the researchers presented their volunteers with a second, which involved looking at 16 sets of three words and trying to think of a fourth word that linked them. Sometimes the first three words were accompanied by an unrequested hint. Sometimes they were not.Hints appeared as the written form of the word in question, accompanied by a computer-shaped icon (图标). For half of participants this icon had a humanlike face, and the hint was placed inside a speech bubble originating from that face. For the other half the icon lacked a face and there was no speech bubble. After the final set of words had been displayed, participants were asked to agree or disagree with follow-up statements about their experience, such as 4tit was embarrassing to receive help during the task”, and “others might think I am incompetent(无能的) because I received help during the task”. This time, they quantified their feelings on a seven-point scale, with higher scores representing greater feelings of unease.The researchers found that participants who believed intelligence to be unchangeable felt more embarrassed and more incompetent after the tests. Specifically, those who tended to believe that intelligence is unchangeable were more likely to feel ashamed and embarrassed if the computer icons they had seen giving the hints had had faces and speech bubbles. In contrast, people who strongly believed that intelligence could be changed over time felt the same level of discomfort whether or not the icons had been anthropomorphized.A second experiment, in which a different set of participants were allowed to ask for help rather than having it offered to them at random had similar results. Dr Park therefore concludes that some people do, indeed, seem to wish to avoid losing face by seeking help from an icon that has, well, a face.63.Dr Park and her team’s initial test was intended to__________.A.find out the participants1 opinion of whether intelligence is fixedB.prove the findings of previous work that intelligence changes with ageC.choose from the participants those who are intelligent enough for the testD.highlight those who tend to feel ashamed to reveal how intelligent they are64.Which of the following is TRUE of Dr Park and her team’s second test?A.The participants were asked to sort out the different one among the given words.B.The participants were tested on how they felt about getting help in this way.C.The hints would appear as long as the participants hesitated for some time.D.The hints were given to help the participants how competent they were.65.The first experiment and the second experiment are different in.A.whether participants held the similar beliefs about intelligenceB.whether participants could decide if they need any helpC.whether the help was offered regularly or at randomD.whether the icons are computer-shaped or not66.What can be concluded from the passage?A.More should be done to make digital assistants more human-like.B.People’s idea of intelligence needs to be updated at the moment.C.Embarrassment is among most common emotions people have.D.Digital assistants are sometimes too human to appeal to users.Section CDirections: Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.Quantitative EatingAre you keen on QE (quantitative eating)? Do you have a high marginal propensity(边际倾向)to consume chocolate? Then you might be angered by the diet book, The Economists’ Diet:The Surprising Formula for Losing Weight and Keeping It Off^ from two self-described “formerly fat economists” on how to lose weight.__________A diet is described as a “self-imposed eating-austerity (艰苦朴素)programme”. There is some discussion of people’s general failure to give enough weight to the long-term consequences of their actions. And there is some neat use of the concept of diminishing returns (收益递减).Eat a wide variety of foods and you may always get pleasure from trying something different. But limit your diet and you will soon tire of eating more. 68 The authors think this is more important than exercise since the latter tends to make you hungry; it is easy to undo all the good work of a cycle ride with a snack.Eating less requires you to limit yourself to one square meal (defined as some meat and two side portions of vegetables) a day. The other meals should be very light; a non-creamy soup, a salad or a bowl of non-sugary cereal. If you do end up having a big meal or a treat, then the other meals should be skipped altogether.But the authors are not too prescriptive(规定的) The aim is to find a diet that works for each individual.___________. Only then can you see whether the diet is working.The book is full of perfectly sensible advice, such as avoiding unusual diets, the appeal of “low-fat” foods and the temptation to drink all your calories in the form of fancy drinks, alcohol and sugary coffees. 70 But, as experienced economists, the authors may have realised that, when it comes to diet plans, demand is almost infinite.IV.Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea of the passage and how it is illustrated. Use your own words as far as possible.The dangers of safetyTravelling by road is widely accepted as being the most dangerous way to travel with far more deaths per kilometer than rail, sea or air. In fact, while road traffic injuries represent about 25% of worldwide injury-related deaths, deaths on the road in the UK have been decreasing for some time. We take a look at why the number is decreasing, but why it seems impossible to avoid deaths completely.Over the years, different methods of reducing the number of crashes have been tried. The Locomotive and Highways Act of 1865 introduced the idea of speed limits to the motoring world. Since then, more and more ways of controlling the behaviour of drivers have been introduced, such as one-way streets and traffic signals, as well as compulsory driver testing and licensing. These days, there are many more methods of enforcement, including speed cameras and fines for breaking motor laws.Another solution is to make cars themselves safer in case of an accident. This means the main focus has been on passive safety or crash survival rather than active safety or avoiding crashes. There are many innovations by motor manufacturers, which have made cars safer, such as seat belts, anti-lock brakes and airbags. These improvements have tended to make the driver feel more in control and isolated him/her from the fast-moving and dangerous environment outside the car. It seems strange that as improvements have been made the number of crashes continues to increase.Actually, it is wrong to talk about safe and dangerous cars in this way. The key to this problem is not actually the car, but the driver. In fact, making drivers feel safer is not the solution to the problem, but it is the cause of the problem. As drivers feel safer, it encourages them to drive aggressively and to ignore other road users and therefore increases the number of crashes.V.TranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.72.请调整一下这张桌子,以适应这个孩子的身高。

AThese are the Nicest Places in America, from tiny Hayesville, North Carolina to the city of Providence, Rhode Island. You really can find kindness all over the U. S.Yassin ' s Falafel House in Knoxville. TennesseeYassin Terou, who came to Knoxville in 2011, is a well-known local person. His falafel house won the Nicest Places in America contest in 2018 because it serves as a welcoming and safe place for people of every culture who are in trouble. Even though some people don't accept him for who he is, Yassin likes to give everyone a chance because he was given a chance to realize his American dream. Katy, TexasIn 2017, Katy, Texas was hit hard by Hurricane Harvey. About 700 homes and 80 businesses were destroyed or damaged in the small town. Soon after it, local people and businesses immediately helped their neighbors recover.Kalamazoo, MichiganStudent loan debt (学生借贷) is an ever-present case for students looking to go on their education, but in Kalamazoo, it's not a problem. An organization funded by anonymous (匿名的) people called The Kalamazoo Promise pays for any student that attends Kalamazoo public schools to go to college. This town ' s amazing promise is keeping hope alive. Enoch Pratt Library in Baltimore, MarylandEnoch Pratt isn't your typical library, it's more of a community service center. In a city with high crime, it offers help to people that get in trouble with the law. Volunteers, including local lawyers doing work without getting paid, serve hundreds of people every week. This library is writing a new chapter (篇章) for Baltimore.21. We learn from Paragraph 3 that Katy ___ .A. was completely destroyedB. lived through the storm safelyC. was recovered with anonymous people's helpD. was rebuilt by local people and businesses22. What gives Baltimore a new look?A. Enoch PrattB. V oluntary workC. The effect of law.D. Community service23. The Nicest Places in America are all ___ .A. related with disastersB. full of kindnessC. about the American dreamD. of the social public serviceBI wanted to lose some weight, and I also hoped to explore the countryside. So I agreed to join a local group of walkers around Aix-en-Provence called the International Hiking Club of Provence.Exercising in the gym was a dull choice in this beautiful place, and when the wind started to blow and the water temperature dropped suddenly, the romantic idea of an everyday sea swim would disappear in my mind. Luckily, that didn't happen very often.From time to time, the group organized imaginative hikes in the countryside around Aix---Mont St Victoire, The Luberon, The Calanques, The Durance valley and other places. The journey would be tough and tiring, and you need a good pair of walking shoes. At the same time, you also need an appetite (胃口) for amazing beauties and hearty conversations with local people and foreigners.My first walk led me down the side of a cliff (悬崖) to the Calanque of Sugiton. Those sea cliffs are the highest in France. It was a great challenge for legs and afterwards, I would enjoy a treat---a refreshing sea swim. Magic! Just our little group and a few locals shared the experience together.In another hike in Provence, the good smell of wild flowers led me up a local mountain in the Luberon.Lost in those beautiful flowers and the relaxing smell, I didn't even notice my tiredness. What a simple pleasure and treat for the senses!In Provence, there are hundreds of ways to explore through woods, valleys, and quiet meadows (草地). Mont Ventoux---the largest mountain in the region is the next goal on my list. A friend goes there regularly by bike and loves it.My hiking experiences inspired the kids to try. They walked up Mont St Victoire and down a Calanque. They complained sometimes, but they also laughed a lot. And they couldn't wait to tell their friends about the experience.24. Why did the author join the group?A. To meet some new walkers.B. To swim in the sea with some friends.C. To learn how to lose some weight from others.D. To lose some weight and enjoy the countryside.25. Which of the following did the author do during her stay around Aix-en-provence?A. She swam in the sea every day.B. She exercised in the gym with others.C. She climbed mountains and went down cliffs.D. She worked as a guide to show foreigners around.26. What did the kids most probably think of walking up Mont St Victoire?A. Difficult but fun.B. Boring and tiring.C. Hard but meaningful.D. Relaxing and interesting.27. What would be the best title for the text?A. A Special Hiking Group in ProvenceB. The Joy of Hiking in ProvenceC. Some Attractions in Provence.D. A Trip to Provence with KidsCI ' ve been trying to write a journal about my visit to LEGO Movie World with my family. Now it is! It's 2019 and wevisited Legoland during our spring break. Since we only had five hours, we decided hitting our favorite places would be thefirst step of the tour.We really enjoyed our time in LEGO Movie World. If you haven't been there, I recommend it to you. There are somefantastic rides that you shouldn't miss.Ride 1: Unikitty's Disco Drop. Immediately to the left of the LEGO Movie World entrance, you can find Unikitty's DiscoDrop. Similar to the Beetle Bounce, this ride adds another touch of fun. As you move up and down the tower, the ride alsorotates (旋转)! The area is enjoyable as well, with all the crazy Unikitty color mixtures present.Ride 2: Masters of Flight. To the right of Unikitty's Disco Drop, there is a huge structure (建筑物). Ifyou've seen The LEGO Movie , you'll recognize this structure as The Dog Cloud Cuckoo Land, where all the Master Buildersmeet.To get inside, you 'Il have to make your way around a maze (迷宫) to wait for your turn but LEGO does a great job tooffer you amusement a while you wait. You'll be greeted by some great structures and provided with a wall to leave yourmark on.Once finally inside the structure, you'll find the Masters of Flight ride. It begins as the seats rotate around and you will findyourself as part of the Emmet's Triple---Decker Couch Mech! While you experience THELEGO MOVIE 2: The Second Part, get ready to feel like you're flying! You'll smell pine trees, the ocean, cotton candy andmore! It was certainly my favorite of all the new rides.At the end of the day, I felt Merlin Entertainment did an excellent job in repurposing this area to fit their idea of the LEGOMovie World. It looks fantastic. We are looking forward to coming back to this world.28. When the authors family experienced Unikitty's Disco Drop, ____ .A. they preferred it to the Beetle BounceB. they had to get through the maze firstC. they found the mixed colors unbeautifulD. they saw the ride rotate29. What can we learn about Masters of Flight?A. People give it high praise.B. People can enjoy flying in it.C. People have to line up to experience it.D. People find it boring to wait in the maze.30. What did the author think of LEGO Movie World?A. Satisfying.B. Boring.C. Time-wasting.D. Disappointing.31. What is the text mainly about?A. The author ' s favorite rides.B. The visit to LEGO Movie World.C. The excellent Merlin Entertainment.D. The review of THE LEGO MOVIE 2: The Second Part.DWhen snack-food businessmen started selling fat-free products back in the 80s, they really achieved success.Consumers were interested in avoiding fat because it caused heart problems and made them fat. So the nonfat foods were adieter's dream! Fat-free chips and dairy products flew off the shelves. However, as it turned out, not many people becameslim and healthy from going on fat-free diets. In fact, not eating fat seemed to cause more health problems instead.There are many naturally fat- free foods. Fruits and vegetables are on the top of the list. They' relow in calories ( 卡路里 ) and are filled with beneficial vitamins ( 有益的维生素 ). That ' s not the case with processed fat-free food.The problem with fat-free packaged food is that fat makes food taste good. With all the fat taken away, it tastes like cardboard. So, the producers have to add into all kinds of things to keep the taste ---like sugar, salt and artificial flavors ( 人造香精 ) Therefore, processed fat-free foods can actually end up containing more calories than the full- fat foods. Fruit canbe high in calories and sugar, too, but you nutrients (营养物 ) along with it. Processed fat- free foods don 't have a olotht eorf things.We know now that all fat is not evil. Fat helps control your nervous system and encourages bone health. Fat-free salad can actually make you lose your ability to process all the good nutrients in it.When you buy a fat-free product in the store, take a second to check the nutrient information on the package. If it contains sugar, salt or artificial favors --- or has more calories than the full-fat version---put it back on the shelf. Most of the time, you ' d be better -ef a tt ivnegr sthioen f,u wllhich tastes better and will satisfy you sooner---as long as you don't eat the whole box! 32. What is the difference between processed fat-free products and naturally fat-free foods? A. Naturally fat-free foods easily make people fat.B. Processed fat-free foods are usually low in calories.C. Processed fat-free foods are usually rich in vitamins.D. Naturally fat-free foods usually contain beneficial vitamins.33. What is the problem of fat-free packaged food mentioned in Paragraph 3?B. It has too few types.D. It tastes bad without other things added into it.“ evil ” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?C. Harmful.D. Dangerous.35. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. How to choose food wisely. B. How to live on a healthy diet.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。

AIn 1812, the year Charles Dickens was born, there were 66 novels published in Britain. People had been writing novels for a century—most experts date the first novel to Robinson Crusoe in 1719—but nobody wanted to do it professionally. The steam-powered printing press was still in its early stages; the literacy(识字)rate in England was under 50%. Many works of fiction appeared without the names of the authors, often with something like “By a lady.”Novels, for the most part, were looked upon as silly, immoral, or just plain bad.In 1870, when Dickens died, the world mourned him as its first professional writer and publisher, famous and beloved, who had led an explosion in both the publication of novels and their readership and whose characters — from Oliver Twist to Tiny Tim—were held up as moral touchstones. Today Dickens’ greatness is unchallenged. Removing him from the pantheon(名人堂)of English literature would make about as much sense as the Louvre selling off the Mona Lisa.How did Dickens get to the top? For all the feelings readers attach to stories, literature is a numbers game, and the test of time is extremely difficult to pass. Some 60,000 novels were published during the Victorian age, from 1837 to1901; today a casual reader might be able to name a half-dozen of them. It’s partly true that Dickens’ style of writing attracted audiencesfrom all walks of life. It’s partly that his writings rode a wave of social, political and scientific progress. But it’s also that he rewrote the culture of literature and put himself at the center. No one will ever know what mix of talent, ambition, energy and luck made Dickens such a singular writer. But as the 200th anniversary of his birth approaches, it is possible — and important for our own culture—to understand how he made himself a lasting one.1.Which of the following best describes British novels in the 18th century?A.They were difficult to understand.B.They were popular among the rich.C.They were seen as nearly worthless.D.They were written mostly by women.2.Dickens is compared with the Mona Lisa in the text to stress________.A.his reputation in FranceB.his interest in modern artC.his success in publicationD.his importance in literature3.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A.To remember a great writer.B.To introduce an English novel.C.To encourage studies on culture.D.To promote values of the Victorian age.BEl Nifio, a Spanish term for “the Christ child”, was named by South American fisherman who noticed that the global weather pattern, which happens every two to seven years, reduced the amount of fishes caught around Christmas. El Nifio sees warm water, collected over several years in the western Pacific, flow back eastwards when winds that normally blow westwards weaken, or sometimes the other way round.The weather effects both good and bad, are felt in many places. Rich countries gain more from powerful Nifio, on balance, than they lose. A study found that a strong Nifio in 1997 helped American’s economy grow by 15 billion, partly because of better agricultural harvest, farmers in the Midwest gained from extra rain. The total rise in agricultural in rich countries in growth than the fall in poor ones.But in Indonesia extremely dry forests are in flames. A multi-year drought (干旱)in south-east Brazil is becoming worse. Though heavy rains brought about by El Nino may relieve the drought in California, they are likely to cause surface flooding and other disasters.The most recent powerful Nino, in 1997-98, killed around 21,000 people and caused damage worth $36 billion around the globe. But such Ninos come with months of warning, and so much is known about how they happen that governments can prepare. According to the Overseas Development Institute (ODI), however, just 12% of disaster-relief funding in the past two decades has gone on reducing risks in advance, rather than recovery and rebuilding afterwards. This is despite evidence that a dollar spent on risk-reduction saves at least two on reconstruction.Simple improvements to infrastructure (基础设施)can reduce the spread of disease. Better sewers (下水道)make it less likely that heavy rain is followed by an outbreak of the disease of bad stomach. Stronger bridges mean villages are less likely to be left without food and medicine after floods. According to a paper in 2011 by Mr Hsiang and co-authors, civil conflict is related to El Nino’s harmful effects—and the poorer the country, the stronger the link. Though the relationship may not be causal, helping divided communities to prepare for disasters would at least reduce the risk that those disasters are followed by killing and wounding people. Since the poorest are least likely to make up for their losses from disasters linked to El Nino, reducing their losses needs to be the priority.4.What can we learn about El Nino in Paragraph 1?A.It is named after a South American fisherman.B.It takes place almost every year all over the world.C.It forces fishermen to stop catching fish around Christmas.D.It sees the changes of water flow direction in the ocean.5.What may El Ninos bring about to the countries affected?A.Agricultural harvests in rich countries fall.B.Droughts become more harmful than floods.C.Rich countries’ gains are greater than their losses.D.Poor countries suffer less from droughts economically.6.The data provided by ODI in Paragraph 4 suggest that_________.A.more investment should go to risk reductionB.governments of poor countries need more aidC.victims of El Nino deserve more compensationD.recovery and reconstruction should come first7.What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A.To introduce El Nino and its origin.B.To explain the consequences of El Nino.C.To show ways of fighting against El Nino.D.To urge people to prepare for El Nino.CFor Western designers, China and its rich culture have long been an inspiration for Western creative.“It’s no secret that China has always been a source(来源) of inspiration for designers,” says Amanda Hill, chief creative officer at A+E Networks, a global media company and home to some of the biggest fashion(时尚) shows.Earlier this year, the China Through A Looking Glass exhibition in New York exhibited 140 pieces of China-inspired fashionable clothing alongside Chinese works of art, with the aim of exploring the influence of Chinese aesthetics(美学) on Western fashion and how China has fueled the fashionable imagination for centuries. The exhibition had record attendance, showing that there is huge interest in Chinese influences.“China is impossible to overlook,” says Hill. “Chinese models are the faces of beauty and fashion campaigns that sell dreams to women all over the world, which means Chinese women are not just consumers of fashion —they are central to its movement.” Of course, not only are today’s top Western designers being influenced by China—some of the best designers of contemporary fashion are themselves Chinese. “Vera Wang, Alexander Wang, Jason Wu are taking on Galliano, Albaz, Marc Jacobs—and beating them hands down in design and sales,” adds Hill.For Hill, it is impossible not to talk about China as the leading player when discussing fashion. “The most famous designers are Chinese, so are the models, and so are the consumers,” she says. “China is no longer just another market; in many senses it has become the market. If you talk about fashion today, you are talking about China—its influences, its direction, its breathtaking clothes, and how young designers and models are finally acknowledging that in many ways.”8.What can we learn about the exhibition in New York?A.It promoted the sales of artworks. B.It attracted a large number of visitors.C.It showed ancient Chinese clothes. D.It aimed to introduce Chinese models.9.What does Hill say about Chinese women?A.They are setting the fashion. B.They start many fashion campaigns.C.They admire super models. D.They do business all over the world.10.What do the underlined words “taking on” in paragraph 4 mean?A.learning from B.looking down on C.working with D.competing against 11.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Young Models Selling Dreams to the WorldB.A Chinese Art Exhibition Held in New YorkC.Differences Between Eastern and Western AestheticsD.Chinese Culture Fueling International Fashion TrendsDCalifornia has lost half its big trees since the 1930s, according to a study to be published Tuesday and climate change seems to be a major factor(因素).The number of trees larger than two feet across has declined by 50 percent on more than 46, 000 square miles of California forests, the new study finds. No area was spared or unaffected, from the foggy northern coast to the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the San Gabriels above Los Angeles. In the Sierra high country, the number of big trees has fallen by more than 55 percent; in parts of southern California the decline was nearly 75 percent.Many factors contributed to the decline, said Patrick McIntyre, an ecologist who was the lead author of the study. Woodcutters targeted big trees. Housing development pushed into the woods. Aggressive wildfire control has left California forests crowded with small trees that compete with big trees for resources(资源).But in comparing a study of California forests done in the 1920s and 1930s with another one between 2001 and 2010, McIntyre and his colleagues documented a widespread death of big trees that was evident even in wildlands protected from woodcutting or development.The loss of big trees was greatest in areas where trees had suffered the greatest water shortage. The researchers figured out water stress with a computer model that calculated how much water trees were getting in comparison with how much they needed, taking into account such things as rainfall, air temperature, dampness of soil, and the timing of snowmelt(融雪).Since the 1930s, McIntyre said, the biggest factors driving up water stress in the state have been rising temperatures, which cause trees to lose more water to the air, and earlier snowmelt, which reduces the water supply available to trees during the dry season.12.What is the second paragraph mainly about?A.The seriousness of big-tree loss in California.B.The increasing variety of California big trees.C.The distribution of big trees in California forests.D.The influence of farming on big trees in California.13.Which of the following is well-intentioned but may be bad for big trees?A.Ecological studies of forests.B.Banning woodcutting.C.Limiting housing development.D.Fire control measures.14.What is a major cause of the water shortage according to McIntyre?A.Inadequate snowmelt. B.A longer dry season.C.A warmer climate. D.Dampness of the air.15.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.California’s Forests: Where Have All the Big Trees Gone?B.Cutting of Big Trees to Be Prohibited in California SoonC.Why Are the Big Trees Important to California Forests?D.Patrick McIntyre: Grow More Big Trees in California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。

Today, the caf6 is an important cultural center where exhibitions are organized. But it remains an ideal place for tourists who simply want to enjoy an espresso sit­ting at a little table in the heart of Venice, a few steps from the Grand Canal.Gran Caffe QuadriAlso in St. Mark’s Square, there is another historic cafe thatsince 1775 has earned an important place among the many. Gran Caffe Quadri represents the memory of centuries in the late period of the Republic of Venice, and the birth of the modem age, and the secrets of the famous people who sat in its halls. Even to­day, Gran Caffe Quadri is a favorite of actors and directors attend­ing the Venice Film Festival.H arry's BarMore recent, but equally absorbing, is the story of Harry's Bar, opened in 1931 and declared a national monument in 2001. Built from an old warehouse (仓库)close to Piazza San Marco, Harry’s Bar owes its name and existence to the American student Harry Pickering. This is not strictly a coffee bar, but inside intel­lectuals, artists, writers such as Arturo Toscanini, Guglielmo Mar­coni, Charlie Chaplin, all spent time.Caffe La CalcinaMoving to the southern limit of the city, in the ancient neigh­borhood called Le Zattere, we will find Caff6 La Calcina, another important spot that was a meeting place for artists and writers in the early 1900s. The place is now a bar and restaurant called La Piscina, in memory of the bathhouse with a pool that used to be there.1. Where would you go if you are interested in cultural events?A.

They are located in St. Mark’s Square.BEarthworms (虫丘虫引)were the beginning of a childhood dream for Jane Goodall. Her mother told a story of going to Goodall’s room when she was one and a half years old.‘‘ She ’ d found I ’ d taken a whole handful of earthworms to •bed with me,,’Goodall said, u and instead of getting mad, she said very quietly, ‘ They ’11die if you leave them here, they need dirt. “So together we took them back into the garden.”“I never went to university after school because we couldn’t afford it,” she said. Since college was impossible, she got a secre­tarial job with Louis Leakey, the famous biologist.It was in the Serengeti plains that Leakey realized Goodall was capable of much more than a secretary. “He just saw that I was very passionate about being out in the wilderness and animals and that I was a good observer,” Goodall said.Leakey sent Goodall to Tanzania to observe chimpanzees (黑60广东教育•高中2021年第6期GUANG DONG JIAO YU GAO ZHONG獲獲)in the wild in hopes that their behavior could help explain his research on early humans.Goodall was surprised by the chimps’love for one another and the bonds between families.She also was surprised when she witnessed one chimpanzee removing the leaves from a small branch and using it as a tool to catch ants.4<At that time,we were defined as the only tool-mak­ing creature on the planet/*Goodall said.Goodall sent a telegram to Leakey,who replied,“Scientists are faced with tw o alterna­tives:Either accept chimpanzees as man,by definition,or else re-define man.”There is no sharp line dividing us from the rest of the animal kingdom,”Goodall said.“It’s a very indistinct line,and it teaches us so clearly that we are not separate from the rest of the animal kingdom,but part of it.”At 86 years old,Goodall still is educating,discovering and working to bridge the gap between man and chimpanzee.4.What do we know about Goodall’s mother?A.She was strict.B.She was bad-temperedC.She was wise.D.She was well-educated.5.What did Louis Leakey find in Goodall?A.Her interest in living in the wilderness.B.Her patience to look after animals.C.Her ability to do secretarial work.D.Her talent for observing animals.6.Why does Goodall suggest either accepting chimpanzees as man or redefine man?A.She witnessed chimpanzees can catch ants.B.She found chimpanzees can make tools.C.She watched the chimps*love for man.D.She accepted chimpanzees as man.7.What is the main idea of the passage?A.Goodall found interest in observing chimps.B.Goodall devoted her life to studying chimps.C.Goodall was inspired by her mother to study chimps.D.Goodall gave up college to observe animals in the wild.cWhen you go to a grocery store(食品杂货店),you expect to pay for your goods with money.But students at a high school in Texas,US,opened a store that runs on good deeds.In November,students from Linda Tutt High School in the city of Sanger opened a grocery store that enables students to buy necessities using a point system.The store aims to support fami­lies in need.M In our school district,a good many students are considered economically disadvantaged,”explained Anthony Love,principal of Linda Tutt.M About 3.6 percent of our students are considered homeless.We thought it important to support them and their fami­lies and make sure they had food on the table/*Students earn points by contributing positively to the school. For those students from poor families,the point system has pro­vided a way for them to shop for their families.44They can earn points for doing chores (杂活)around the building or helping to clean,”Love said.The number of points for each item was actually decided by the students.M So we walked through here and decided that a can of green beans was one point,”said Paul Juarez,the director of First Refuge Ministries.Juarez said that he hopes the idea gets implemented (实施)in other areas.“It gives us a picture of what can be.So if we can do this inside other schools,it will do a whole lot to help other small towns.”In addition to the financial benefits,students also learn about supply management and customer service,and such lessons could prepare them for future jobs.The grocery store1s student manager, Hunter Weertman,said he has already learned important life skills from his experience at the store.The store practice was also welcomed by Thomas Muir, Sanger’s mayor.“We all had our first jobs and it taught us how to work,and what you got for your work,”he said.“I think this will do that for them too,and also meet an immediate need/*8.Why did the students open the grocery store?A.To support poor families.B.To learn to manage money.C.To finish their research project.D.To provide students with necessities.9.How could the students earn points?A.By doing chores at home.B.By shopping for their families.C.By doing good deeds at school.D.By volunteering in the community.10. What is Juarez's opinion on the grocery store?A.It still has some room for improvement.B.It has set a good example to other schools.C.It needs financial support from other schools.D.It has helped poor families in other small towns.11. What does the author intend to tell us in the last two paragraphs?A.The benefits from the store practice.B.The future jobs the students can get.C.The methods of doing a job well.D.The measures to meet an immediate need.DThere’s loads of research that shows that spending time in广东教育•高中2021年第6期 61n傲考场娜操练nature is good for your health and well-being.But not everyone lives near a park.And not everyone can easily get outdoors.So, what happens when you bring nature into your home via TV?A new study finds that a virtual nature experience can have some of the same effects.For the study,researchers from the University of Exeter in the U.K.brought 96 adults into a lab and created boredom by having them watch a four-minute video of a man discussing his work at an office supply company.Then,the study participants experienced scenes of an under-water coral reef (珊湖瞧)scene from the BBC’s“Blue nanet II,’series.They watched it on TV,with a virtual reality headset using 360-degree video,or with a virtual reality headset using computer-generated interactive graphics (交互式图形)•Researchers found that all three methods greatly reduced negative feelings like sadness and significantly lowered boredom. The interactive virtual reality experience actually increased posi­tive feelings,such as happiness,and strengthened the connections people said they had to nature.4<I think we were m ost surprised that just watching nature on TV led to positive changes across each of our measures,suggest­ing that even short,five-minute bursts of watching natural history programming can have an effect on well-being,”study co-author Alex Smalley says.Originally,the motivation behind the study was to research benefits for people who were stuck indoors,such as those in nurs­ing homes or people recovering from illness.But there are entirely new positive results in today*s world due to COVID-19.“We never imagined a pandemic (流行病)would mean the results might apply to such a big part of the global population,’’Smalley says. “We’d always recommend trying to get out into nature wherever possible but for those who can’t,our findings suggest that digital experiences of nature could provide a short-term fix/*12.What’s the new study about?A.The significance of living a green life.B.The effects of watching nature on TV.C.The necessity of going out into nature.D.The methods of increasing positive feelings.13. Why did researchers ask the participants to watch a four- minute video?A.To observe their different reactions.B.To let them know more about life.C.To attract their attention.D.To make them feel bored.14. What can we learn about the researchers from Alex Smalley’s words?A.They will carry out the study across the world.B.They found m ost people surprised at their study.C.They had some unexpected findings in the study.D.They suggested people watch TV for a short while.15.Who would probably be m ost interested in the study?A.People who are kept indoors.B.People who work in hospitals.C.People who enjoy watching TV.D.People who travel on business.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分115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。
