高三年级考试英语试题第二部分阅读理解(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，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AThe British summer is extremely beautiful．Trees，flowers，birds and butterflies make the whole country like a big garden．However，many British people have noticed that butterflies have been gradually disappearing from this picturesque scenery during the past several years．What has happened to them?Butterfly Conservation，a charity in the UK，is running a survey to help answer this question．The result is more serious than people expected．According to the survey，among 59 butterfly species found in the British Isles，more than three-quarters of them are suffering a declining population，including the most popular Meadow Brown．Moreover，half of all butterfly species are on the verge of extinction．Some common species such as the small Tortoiseshell butterfly and the Wall butterfly are dropping dramatically．The latter cannot even be seen in many parts of central and southern England．The Blue butterfly，which was commonly seen in the south，has started colonizing Edinburgh in the past few years．The numbers of butterflies have dropped to a record low in the past three years largely because the summer in the UK is getting cooler and their habitat is also degrading．Fortunately Britain is experiencing a long hot summer this year compared to the last few summers．Conservationists believe the warm weather will bring some benefit to the butterflies．Sir David Attenborough，president of Butterfly Conservation，said：“Butterflies in quantity tell us that all is well with nature．When they decline it's a warning that other wildlife will be soon heading the same way．”The survey is still going on．The public is also encouraged to keep track of the UK’s butterfly population．The organisers hope the survey will help raise public awareness of the value of butterflies in the UK．Butterflies give an indication of the well-being of nature and the environment．21．Why was the survey carried out?A．To find out the reason for the butterflies decline．B．To raise the public awareness of wildlife protection．C．To make sure the number of the existing butterflies．D．To improve the living condition of the butterflies．22．What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?A．Butterflies in the UK will die out soon．B．Other wildlife has faced the same trouble as butterflies．C．Butterflies can indicate the harmony of nature．D．The environment in the UK is heavily polluted．23．What can be the best title of the text?A．The survey of butterfly speciesB．UK butterflies declineC．Butterflies and natureD．The influence of butterflies declineBWhen 6-year-old Jack Foley crossed the finish line last month at the Long BeachKids Triathlon，it was more than an athletic achievement．His completion marked a remarkable recovery from a rare heart condition．The journey began before Jack was born．At a routine 20-week examination，doctors told parents-to-be Rob Foley and Lauren Kiefer-Foley of Long Island，New York，that the fetus’(胎儿的)heart wasn’t properly developing．“The doctor told us，‘we can’t see the left side of the baby’s heart，’”Kiefer-Foley recalled．“He told us，‘you need to get to a cardiologist(心脏病专家)first thing in the morning．’”Further tests would confirm a diagnosis of hypoplastic left heart syndrome，a rare birth fault affecting the heart’s ability to pump blood through the body．Doctors informed the couple about the risks and challenges their child could face．“We were advised by many doctors to terminate our pregnancy because the condition is so severe．They told us that most babies don’t even survive birth，let alone the first surgery，”Kiefer-Foley said．Nonetheless，the couple decided to give their baby a chance．After Jack was born at full-term via a scheduled C—section(剖腹产)，doctors took him straight to a care unit to administer the level of care he would need before his first open—heart surgery days later．“When the doctor said‘it’s a boy!’I didn’t get to see him for hours after that．”Kiefer—Foley said．They would also have to wait until after Jack’s first surgery to hold him for the first time．With a successful delivery behind them，it was now up to Dr．Emile Bacha，chief of Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital to guide Jack through a series of surgeries to repair the newborn’s heart．24．Why did the author say“it was more than an athletic achievement”in Paragraph 1? A．Jack was only six years old．B．The event was too difficult．C．Jack once suffered from severe heart disease．D．Jack didn’t recover from severe heart disease．25．What was the bad effect of Jack’s disease?A．It led to inadequate blood supply．B．The beat of heart was not heard．C．The right side of the baby’s heart can’t be seen．D．His intelligence will not develop properly．26．What does the underlined word“terminate”in Paragraph 4 refer to?A．continue B．stop C．change D．adjust27．What will most probably be talked about in the next part of the text? A．Jack’s journey a11 over the world．B．The sorrow and despair of Jack’s parents．C．Jack’s major academic achievement．D．Jack’s remarkable recovery from heart disease．CSome experts believe that our attention spans are actually shrinking．We often joke that goldfish have the shortest level of concentration，so much so that they forget what they saw nine seconds earlier．Well now a study says that humans have an even shorter span—just eight seconds．This I can believe—there’s always so much to do and so much to remember that my brain gets overloaded and I find it hard to zero in on one thing．Of course，smartphones，the internet and social media all take up a lot of ourattention．Chicago-based research firm Dscout found that we look at our mobile phones for，on average，2．42 hours every day．It is tempting to keep glancing at our phones when we should be focusing on other things and it’s something we didn’t and couldn’t do before the boom in digital media and smartphones，so maybe that’s why the amount of time we can concentrate has been dropping．A report carried out for Microsoft said the average human attention span in 2000 was 1 2 seconds but has now fallen to just eight seconds．However，a BBC radio programme called More or Less，couldn’t find evidence to back up Microsoft’s report．It spoke to Dr Gemma Briggs，a psychologist at the Open University，who says there are problems with the idea of measuring attention spans and i t’s all down to the individual person，“so attention-switching ability may well have developed in recent years，in the age of the smartphone and the internet．But because someone’s distracted(分心)by their smartphone…it doesn’t mean that they then don’t have th e ability to control and maintain their attention when they carry out another task．”This suggests we’re getting better at switching our attention quickly between different tasks；we can multi—skill better than before so we can achieve more things．This is useful in the modern workplace where we need to turn our hand to many different jobs．28．What does Paragraph 1 mainly talk about?A．It’s necessary to stay focused on one thing．B．Humans have shorter attention spans than goldfish．C．Human’s attention spans are shrinking．D．Why goldfish have the shortest level of concentration．29．What led to the shrinking attention span? A．Pressure of life．B．Busy lifestyles．C．Different kinds of noise．D．The boom in modern media and products．30．What does the underlined word“It”in Paragraph 3 refer to?A．The medium．B．Microsoft’s report．C．Evidence．D．A radio programme．31．According to Dr Gemma Briggs，___________．A．people can measure attention spans accuratelyB．people have the attention—switching ability．C．People can’t control their attention to another taskD．attention—switching ability is useless in the modern workplaceDSchool playground crazes(热潮)come and go but thelatest collectable toy is proving popular with children and adults alike．My kids have gone mad for the plasticspinning disc called a fidget spinner(指尖陀螺)and I have to admit，I’ve become a little addicted too—but why?Fidget spinners have been popular．They were originally designed to help kids with conditions like autism(孤独症)deal with stress but they have become a popular toy and they’re helping reduce my stress levels too—when there’s something on my mind I just spin!So what’s the big deal about these three-pronged pieces of rotating plastic? Well，there are many different designs and colours t o collect and then there’s the challenge of spinning them，getting the speed up，balancing it on the end of your finger．On video-sharing websites，vloggers(博主)have showed millions of views from performingtricks with their fidget spinners．For most school children，they’ve become the latest must-have，although some schools have banned them，saying some are poorly made and can be a distraction for pupils．However, one teacher，Ms Timmons，says that they can aid learning among some children．She says “It is a much less disturbing way to channel their energies into something else while the teaching is going on.Fidget spinners join a long list of other childhood favourites now living in the teacher’s top drawer．It wasn’t long ago when our homes and school playgrounds were littered with loom bands(彩虹橡皮筋)as they suddenly became must—have accessories．Billions of them were sold and then made into various forms of rubbery jewellery．One teacher，Guy Tarrant，has confiscated(没收)numerous items from children over the years．It’s probably fair to say fidget spinners won’t always be flavour of the month．Eventually they’11 be replaced by a new equally addictive and annoying craze．32．For what purpose were fidget spinners originally made?A．To reduce kids’stress levels．B．To get children to amuse themselves．C．To arouse students’interest in study．D．To make kids addicted to play．33．What has made many kids go mad for fidget spinners?A．The raw materials．B．Their shapes and colors．C．Their spinning speed．D．The challenge of playing them．34．Why have some schools banned fidget spinners?A．Some spinners are badly designed．B．They are concerned about students’health．C．Some are of poor quality and bad effect．D．Some kids are always showing off tricks．35．What can we infer from the text?A．Fidget spinners are kids’favourite forever．B．School crazes change with time．C．Adults never play with fidget spinners．D．No new school crazes will appear．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。

The attraction is located in Xi’an, in west China’s Shanxi Province.What’s special?The terracotta Army is the buried army of Qin Shi Huang, an ancientChinese emperor. These ancient sculptures were built and buried over two thousand years ago near the city of Xi’an. They were discovered in 1974 by farmers digging a well looking for underground water. Over a thousand terracotta warriors and horses have been uncovered since then. Each warrior is made of clay . They are around two meters tall. The sculptures are so detailed that it is possible to guess the age, rank and personality of each one. None of the soldiers are the same.The best time to visitThe Terracotta Army is an indoor attraction, which is not likely to be affected by weather, so it can be visited all year round.As the Terracotta Army Museum is one of the must-visit attractions in China, it is crowded most of the time. We advise our customers to avoid the following periods when the museum is particularly crowded:National Day holiday, when it is fully packed.Labour Day holidayWeather in winter is d ry, cold and the least comfortable, and it’s also the worst season for air quality, but it’s also low season.Travel style: private, group or independent?A private tour means a lot of flexibility and you will be well taken care of by a private guide and driver. The museum is crowded most of the time, but our guides know how to escape the crowds, and help our customers to enjoy more in the museum. See our 3-Day Terracotta Warriors Private Tour.Going with a group you won’t get lost, but i lacks flexibilit y and personalservice.Travelling on your own you may meet a lot of trouble, such as wasting time on finding a taxi or public bus to the attraction, lining up for tickets, reading maps, making sense of Chinese signs, etc.（1）The Terracotta Army ________.A . was discovered by farmers when doing farm workB . is a great underground army buried 1000 years agoC . was made of clay with clearly recognized characteristicsD . has all been unearthed since its discovery in 1974 （2）Which is the least crowded season to visit the Terracotta Army?A .

Surrounded by working farms, he quickly became interested in the grow-it-yourself idea and rented a piece of 30-by-30-foot land. He planted tomatoes, eggplants and other vegetable—enough to feed his family of four for the summer. He ended up with so much produce; he couldn’t give it away. He found a local food factory and donated 120 pounds of fresh vegetables.The following year, with a handful of volunteers and a memorablename—America’s Grow-a-Row, Paillex harvested 1, 500 pounds of fresh vegetables, all of which he donated to area food banks--places that give food to poor people. Soon Paillex had a hundred volunteers and needed more land. He visited Meredith and Jeremy Compton, who farm Peaceful Valley Orchards in Pittstown. Could he work their land?“I guess we were feeling honored, “ says Meredith. Not only do the Comptons welcome Grow-a-Row volunteers, they also work on the land.What began with a few empty fields has turned into a large local farm. This year, Grow-a-Row will deliver about 250, 000 pounds of fresh produce to food banks. Their secret for getting all of this done? Family power. “ E ach week, a couple of families ‘own’ the garden, “ says Paillex.” They water, pick, and deliver, and then hand it off on Sunday night to the next group of families.”Paillex also welcomed local school kids. On a Friday morning in May, some kids worked on a field. “We’ re growing food, “ one fifth grader said proudly.“The program shows kids that there are people in need, “ says Paillex. “When these kids become tomorrow’s leaders, they’ll be much more likely to encourage their co-workers or employees to get involved in something like this. ““Chip makes people want to help, “ says Colleen Duerr, a mother of two. “And families love this. Chip has given us a way to raise our kids with a giving heart. “（1）Why did Chip start growing vegetables in Pittstown?A . He was deeply attracted by planting.B . Farmers there encouraged him to do so.C . He wanted to offer food to the local food factory.D . There were very few fresh vegetables on the market.（2）After a year’s planting, Chip .A . set up more food banks sin the areaB . persuaded many people to help him on the landC . won great support from more peopleD . helped save many people from being poor（3）How can Grow-a-Row manage to produce so much food?A . School children play the most active part.B . Schools and families divide the work equally.C . The work is divided into separate small tasks.D . Families take turns to look after the garden.（4）What’s the best title for the text?A . American FarmsB . Paillex—The ProducersC . Way of PlantingD . Chip’s Country Life4. 阅读理解A Japanese company, Next Technology, has created a robot dog that can tell you how bad your feet smell, by using a powerful sensor fixed in its nose. If you feet don’t have a bad smell. Hana-chan will happily wag its tail, if it’s exposed to fee t that are mildly smelly, it’ll start to bark, and if they give off an extremely bad smell, it’ll just fall over like the smell caused it to faint.Foot odor is a big deal in Japan, where it’s a custom for people to take off their shoes whenever they ent er someone’s home. In fact, exposing othersto bodily odors can be considered annoyance in Japan. Some of the most brilliant minds in the country’s tech industry have been trying to solve this problem. Last year, Thanko started selling axmpit fans designed to keep people’s armpits nice and dry Now, we have Hana-chan.The robot dog has a special sensor for a nose, and can tell you if your feet smell just by sniffing them for a few seconds. According to some media reports, Hana-chan can help solve the problem of extremely smelly feet by spraying them with air freshener, but it’s unclear whether this feature comes built-in, or if you’ll have to pay extra for it.According to researchers at NextTechnology, the idea for Hana-chan was inspired by a person who desperately wanted some way to know if his feet smelled. “He told us his daughter had said his feet were smelly, “ NextTechnology’s Kimika Tsuji said. “But he didn’t want to know how bad the odor was because he would feel hurt. That’s why we developed this cute robot. “You may be able to make Hana-chan faint with your smelly feet, but it can have the same effect on budget-conscious people. NextTechnology plans to start selling the feet-smelling robot dog for ￥100, 000 next May.（1）Under what condition will Hana-chan bark?A . When its nose is fixed with a sensor.B . When it wags its tail.C . When it detects mildly smelly feet.D . When something is wrong with its nose.（2）Why is foot odor paid great attention to in Japan?A . Because Japanese have strong bodily odors.B . Because Japanese areusually barefooted at others’ home.C . Because Japanese are especial considerate of others.D . Because its tech industry is highly developed.（3）What can be inferred about Hana-chan from the text?A . It has a built-in air freshener sprayer.B . It’s already available in the market.C . Its idea comes from Kimika Tsuji.D . It can recognize foot odor quickly.（4）What does the underlined part in the last paragraph imply?A . Hana-chan is no cheap thingB . People should mind their smelly feet.C . People should be careful about their budget.D . Hana-chan makes people loosen their budget.5. 阅读理解Crown shyness is a mysterious natural phenomenon in which the crowns of some tree species do not touch each other, but get separated by a gap clearly seen from ground level. The effect usually occurs between trees of the same species, but has also been observed between trees of different species.There are many theories going around, most of which make sense, but no one has been able to prove without the shadow of a doubt why some trees avoid touching each other.In his 1955 book Growth Habits of the Eucalypts, Australian forester M. R. Jacobs writes that the growing tips of the trees are sensitive to abrasion , which results in crown shyness phenomenon. This theory was also supported by Dr. Miguel Franco. Some experiments have shown that if trees displaying crownshyness are artificially prevented from swaying in the wind and touching each other, they gradually fill up the gaps between them.But while the above theory is arguably the most widespread, it’s certainly not the only one. Some scientists have suggested that crown shyness is a mechanism to stop the spreading of leaf-eating insects. The gaps mean pests wouldn’t be able to reach other trees, so they are the tree’s natural defense method.One Malaysian scholar studied many trees, but found no traces of abrasions, despite their clear crown shyness. Instead, he suggests that the growing tips of the trees were sensitive to light levels and stopped growing when they got too close to other trees. Plants are able to sense how close they are to other plants and in order to get more light, they give off some chemical to stop other trees from growing too close.Whatever the reason, one thing is for sure, plants are more intelligent than people.（1）What can we know about crown shyness?A . It can cause abrasion between trees.B . It only happens between the same species.C . It has been discovered for only half a century.D . No agreement has been reached about its real cause.（2）What will happen if trees showing crown shyness are stopped from swaying?A . The trees will stop growing and even die.B . The gaps between the trees will grow wider.C . The crown shyness phenomenon will disappear.D . The gapsbetween the trees will remain the same.（3）What does the underlined word “mechanism” in paragraph 4 probably mean?A . Tip.B . Way.C . Theory.D . Plan.（4）Which statement might the Malaysian scholar agree with?A . Trees have special ways to attack others.B . Some insects stop trees growing too close.C . Trees compete with their neighbors for light.D . Trees won’t touch each o ther to avoid diseases.三、任务型阅读6. 任务型阅读US City Bans Texting while WalkingParents usually teach their children how to cross the street safely, by looking both ways for cars. But do they also teach them to put away their cell phones?The city of Honolulu, Hawaii wants everyone to learn that lesson________Beginning on October 24, you could be fined from $15 to $99 if you step into a Honolulu street while looking at your phone. Honolulu is the first major U. S. city to ban what is called “distracted walking. “ It recently passed a law in a seven to two vote. The law says; “No pedestrian shall cross a street or highway while viewing a mobile electronic device. “________ The law’s creators hope it will lower the number of people hit and killed by cars in t he city. Mayor Kirk Caldwell told Reuters news agency, “We hold the unfortunate distinction of being a major city with more pedestrians beinghit in crosswalks, particularly our elders, than almost any other city in the country. “The law includes all electronic devices with screens: cell phones, tables, gaming devices, digital cameras and laptop computers________Pedestrians may use such devices in the street to call emergency services and rescue workers, such as firefighters and police officers.________The Governors Highway Safety Association, or GHSA, says pedestrian deaths in the United States increase 25 percent between 2010 and 2015. That trend continued in 2016 with the number of pedestrian deaths rising to almost 6000, 11% higher than in 2015.If you still want to text while walking, you could avoid being fined in Honolulu by using a voice-controlled digital assistant such as Siri or Google Assistant________A. The law does permit an exception.B. Or you could just wait until you are again, safely, off the street.C. You will be sentenced to prison while using cell phones in the street.D. Pedestrian deaths have been increasing as the use of cell phones rises.E. Texting while crossing the street will soon be banned in the city.F. The law permits people to watch TV while crossing the street.G. In other words, do not look at a screen when you cross the street or you could be fined.四、短文改错7. 假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。

When he was drunk, instead of taking care of me, I had to take care of him. Although there were some bad moments, he was a good father.Seven years ago, my dad told me he had joined an AA-meeting(戒酒会). Once he asked if I wanted to go along with him to it. It had never occurred to me that he needed someone's support.I didn't know much about AA. I'd only seen scenes in films, in which people sit together in a circle and tell their stories. Some say it' s overly religious and that there’s no science behind the treatment. But I'd never had any direct experience with it.Curious about it, I accepted his invitation. As it turned out, I was the only family member there. Everyone got the chance to speak; while all stories were unique, they carried some common themes: a thirst for what you know you can’t have, the struggle following a relapse(复发), guilt, shame and sadness. I clearly remember having the lump in my throat after hearing everyone' s most private stories, including my dad's. I felt so many emotions at once.My dad is about to celebrate 15 years of being sober(清醒的). These days, he al so acts as a volunteer for other members. We’re both so much better off than when he was at his worst. AA isn't for everyone, but in our case, I like to focus or the fact that without my dad getting help that way, he might still have been a stranger to me.25. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. The author didn't love her dad.B. The author didn't want to take care of her dad.C. The author's dad didn't quit drinking until divorce.D. The author's dad's drinking problem did harm to his family.26. Why did the author's dad ask her to go to the AA-meeting with him?A. He needed support from her.B. He wanted to tell stories to her.C. He wanted to get better treatment.D. He felt nervous being with other people27. What does the author mean by saying "having the lump in my throat"?A. She was proud of her dad.B.

Or maybe I' m wrong—maybe you’re a good, upstanding citizen who believes that honesty is the best policy.We may agree that admitting our mistakes and behaving in a genuine and decent way is the right way to lead our lives but is there something in our human nature that makes us unscrupulous? For example,in some shops and car parks you can find an honesty box—a box where you pay for something by putting money in it. But it does provide a temptation(诱惑) to get away with not paying the full amount.Philip Graves,' a psychologist,suggests that this temptation is part of our evolution. He says: we have evolved with the ability to be dishonest. It' s part of our evolutionary psychological make up—because if we can gain an advantage over the people around us, we have a greater chance of surviving.So why do we place such importance on being honest if we benefit from being dishonest? It's because it is selfish behavior. If everybody acted selfishly and dishonestly all the time, the world would be a very unpleasant place. So, for societies to work together we need to trust each other and therefore we need to be honest.Being trustworthy with money is of course extremely important for an economy to survive and there are laws toprotect us from dishonest practices. But being honest with words is another matter; saying what we think to someone can be embarrassing. Is honest always the best policy?29.

If there is an honesty box in a shop, what should a customer do?A. Take some money out if in need.B. Donate some money to the charities.C. Get away without paying the right amount.D.

Dishonesty is of some benefit to survival.D. Breaking the balance is kind of dishonesty.32. The author may NOT agree that .A. Honesty is based on working together.B. Not all social members accept dishonesty.C. Dishonest economic behaviors will be punished.D. Being dishonest with words sometimes is acceptable.DTake a quick tipple (酒) and you could find yourself speaking a second language more naturally, according to new research.The foreign language skills of participants in the study were found to be improved after a drink of alcohol, which suggests the way alcohol can put us at ease outweighs the negative effects on our brain—at least for the first drink,anyway. It could reveal some interesting facts about the anxiety associated with speaking another language,and how alcohol can help us overcome it.The study involved 50 native German speakers studying Dutch at a Dutch university, who had recently learned to speak, read, and write in the new language. Participants were either given alcohol or water. The amount of alcohol varied based on body size, but was the equal to 5 percent beer for a 70kg male. They then chatted to a researcher for five minutes, assessed by two native Dutch speakers who weren't told whether they consumed alcohol. Those people who had been given the alcoholic drink were given better ratings by the observers, especially for their pronunciation.So what' s going on? We know that alcohol has 'a negative effect on our brain' s executive functioning, including our memory and our attention. However, we also know that alcohol improves confidence and reduces social anxiety. "One possible reason could be that," says one of the researchers."But more research is needed to test this.""It is important to point out that participants in this study consumed a small amount of alcohol," adds one of the team." Higher levels of alcohol consumption might not have beneficial effects on the pronunciation of a foreign language."33. What’s the passage mainly about?A.
