河南省鲁山县第一高级中学2022届高三模拟训练三英语试题及答案

英语试题第Ⅰ卷第二部分阅读(共两节,满分50分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5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。

ASeveral years ago, a television reporter was talking to three of the most important people in America. One was a very rich banker, another owned one of the largest companies in the world and the third owned many buildings in the centre of New York. The reporter was talking to them about being important.“How do we know if someone is really important?” The reporter asked the banker.The banker thought for a few mome nts and then said, “I think anybody who is invited to the White House to meet the President of the United States is really important.”The reporter then turned to the owner of the very large company. “Do you agree with that?” She asked.The man shook his h ead, “No. I think the President invites a lot of people to the White House. You’d only be important if while you were visiting the President, there was a telephone call from the President of another country, and the President of the US said he was too busy to answer it.”The reporter then turned to the third man, “Do you think so?”“No, I don’t,” he said. “I don’t think that makes the visitor important. That makes the President important.“Then what would make the visitor important?” The reporter and the ot her two men asked.“Oh, I think if the visitor to the White House was talking to the President and the phone rang, and the President picked up the receiver, listened and then said, ‘It is for you.’”21. The story happened in .A. EnglandB. AmericaC. JapanD. Australia22. There are in this passage?A. Two men and two women.B. Three men and one woman.C. Three women and one man.D. Four women.23. The owner of many buildings thought .A. he was important because he owned many buildings in the centre of New York.B. the banker was really important.C. the visitor was really important if he was talking to the President and the President received a telephone call for the visitor.D. the person who worked in the White House was really important.BThey block entrances, crowd street corners and tip onto their sides, turning a convenient form of transportation into a sidewalk danger that is particularly dangerous for the elderly and disabled.Now a new California company is working on a possible solution for stopping the chaos caused by electric scooters(滑板车) in cities around the country. The company, known as Swiftmile, has unattended charging stations for e-scooters that are designed to serve as a place where riders can p ark the scooters between rides. The company’s founder, Colin Roche, said the solar-powered charging stations—which can accommodate any brand of e-scooter—are most suitable for areas that are often crowded with the scooters, such as bus and subway stations.As the weather warms and ridership increases, that struggle is expected to intensify. On one side of the debate, experts say, are cities whose leaders want to reduce traffic and encourage alternative, environmentally-friendly patterns of transportation to battle against climate change and promote innovation(创新). Some local officials also fear that restricting scooter companies will cast cities in an outdated light, discouraging technology companies from doing business there in the future. On the other side of the debate are critics who have complained about e-scooter companies for blocking walkways and selling a product whose use has led to thousands of injuries among riders and pedestrians, many of them severe.Pat Burt, a former Palo Alto mayor who is currently advising Swiftmile, said the future of e-scooters could depend heavily on what happens in 2019. Cities have identified the benefits of e-scooters as well as the drawbacks, which could become existential for the companies. “If the safety and other pr oblems aren’t addressed, I think cities will restrict them even more,”he said. “But there’s a good chance scooters will be adopted universally if these problems get solved.”24. What is the main idea of the first paragraph?A. The elderly are easy to get injured.B. E-scooters are difficult to find.C. Many problems are caused by e-scooters.D. New inventions provide people with convenience.25. What can e-scooter owners do at the charging station?A. Park their e-scooters.B. Get their e-scooters repaired.C. Have their e-scooters cleaned.D. Charge their e-scooters for free.26. What benefits can e-scooters bring to the cities?A. Attracting more tourists.B. Reducing traffic pressure.C. Making the roads much safer.D. Increasing the local company’s profits.27. What decides the future of e-scooters according to Pat Burt?A. The public’s attitude.B. The improvement of traffic.C. The solving of present problems.D. The benefits of the new business model. CRegarded as one of the English language’s most gifted poets, John Keats wrote poetry that concentrated on imagery, human nature, and philosophy(哲学). Although Keats didn’t receive much formal literary education, his own studies and passion brought him much success. Additionally, his own life situation influenced his poetry greatly.Growing up as a young boy in London in a lower middle-class family, the young John didn’t attend a private school, but went to a public one. His teachers and his family’s friends regarded him as an optimistic boy who favored playing and fighting much more than minding his studies. After his father’s death in the early 1800s, followed by his mother’s passing due to tuberculosis(肺结核), he began viewing life differently. He wanted to escape the world and did so by reading anything he could get his hands on.At around the age of 16, the teenage John Keats began studying under a surgeon so that he too might become a doctor. However, his literary appetite had taken too much of his fancy, especially with his addiction to the poetry of Ehmund Spenser. He was able to have his first full poem published in the Examiner in 1816, entitled O Solitude! If I Must With Thee Dwell. Within two months in 1817, Keats had written an entire volume of poetry, but was sharply criticized(批评) by a magazine. However, the negative response didn’t stop his love of rhythm(韵律).John Keats’ next work was Endymion, which was published in May 1818. The story involves a shepherd who falls in love with the moon goddess and leads him on an adventure of one boy’s hope to overcome the limitations of being human. Following Endymion, however, he tried something more narrative-based(叙事体的) and wrote Isabella. During this time, John Keats began seeing his limitations in poetry due to his own limit in life experiences. He would have to have the “knowledge” associated with his poems. His next work was Hyperion that would attempt to combine all that he learned. However, a bout(发作) with tuberculosis while visiting Italy would keep him from his work and eventually take hislife in 1821.28. John Keats’ attitude towards life changed because of .A. his early education from schoolB. the deaths of his parentsC. Edmund Spenser’s poetryD. the criticism of a magazine29. What is the common thing between John Keats and his mother?A. They read many books.B. They had a bad childhood.C. They died of the same disease.D. They showed strong interest in poetry.30. While trying to achieve his dream of becoming a poet first, John Keats was .A determined B. experienced C. knowledgeable D. impatient31. What do we know from the passage?A. Keats received little education at school.B. Endymion was about a real love story.C. In 1816 Keats spent two months writing a poem.D. Keats once had a chance of becoming a doctor.DIt was just a normal day for Ruth Miller, a 63-year-old woman until everything went horribly wrong. She was walking to her car after shopping when the unthinkable happened.Right as she was unlocking her car, a man quickly came up behind her and tried to wrestle her purse away. She was in shock. Luckily she remembered she had her Safe Personal Alarm(SPA) on her purse, and since she was too scared to scream for help, she quickly reached for the alarm and pulled the pin(保险栓). Immediately her SPA started just screaming. The man didn’t know what to do! He froze for a second, and then ran away like a bat out of hell!SPA is a safety device capable of creating a 125db sound that attracts attention andscares away potential attackers. To compare, it’s the same volume as a military jet during takeoff.Paul Davidson, the inventor of SPA, knows all too well the type of situation that Ruth f ound herself in. But that’s not the only type of situation that SPA helps protect against. Parents can give it to their kids as an extra means of protection. Teenagers can use it so they can feel safe walking home. Women can know it’s there when they have to use the parking lot at night. “My mother, who is 76 years old, carries it around in case she falls and needs to ask people for help. I only wish I’d have thought of it earlier,” said Paul.The police have been recommending SPA since it first hit the market. In fact, since its launch, SPA has been in a state, shifting between in stock to sold out nearly every other week, and it’s also got tons of loyal followers worldwide.32. What does the underlined part “the unthinkable” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. An attempted robbery.B. A wrestling match.C. An angry argument.D. A car accident.33. How did Ruth react to the unexpected situation?A. She fought violently.B. She froze in great fear.C. She cried desperately for help.D. She sounded her safety device.34. Why does Paul mention his mother?A. To imply the elderly need more care.B. To suggest he cares about his mother.C. To show SPA can be widely used.D. To make an advertisement for SPA.35. What can be learned from the text?A. SPA is well received in the market.B. People hesitate to pay for security.C. SPA was sold out in the first two weeks.D. SPA is not important in life.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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 tail of the plane was up in the air and the nose was in the fish pond.’Mr Campbell, (28) _________ flies all over the country to treat the patients of his private practice, said: “I was coming into the airport and both engines cut out.

She applied and was invited to join in. But, 31________ she was placed in the control group rather than the treatment one that would try out the new 32________a virtual reality (VR) program for acrophobia (the medical term for a fear of heights).The ones in the treatment group--44 in all---were given five or six 30-minute sessions (时间段)of the VR treatment over the 33________ of two weeks.The results, which are being published by The Lancet Psychiatry, were significant. About 70% of the VR group no longer had a fear of heights, while, 34________ , all of the people in the control group, who received no treatment, still did.Fay has now had the same therapy herself. “Once the trial was finished, they offered it to me and I am so pleased that I said yes,” she says. “Heights don’t 35 ________me now.”The VR simulator(模拟器)made people feel like being in a safe situation where they can learn to 36________ their fear. The user wears a VR headset and is asked to work their way up a 10-storey building and complete some tasks, such as looking down over a high rock and throwing balls off it.Lead researcher Prof Daniel Freeman said: “We wanted tasks that would be fun and 37________ and most importantly make the person look down to face their fear. It had to be something that would teach them to feel 38________ with heights.”The therapy is also delivered by virtual coaches who 39________ and guide the users along the way. Prof Freeman said some patients might prefer this to face-to-face therapy with a(n) 40 ________.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.Many people around the world have seen Danny Boyle’s movie Trainspotting based on Irvine Welsh’s novel of the same name and starring Ewan McGregor, but how many of us can really claim to 41________ what train-spotting is all about? Now this is not considered the coolest hobby in town and the word “train-spotter”, in Britain has become similar in meaning to "geek" or "nerd (蠢货或书呆子),but is this 42________ really deserved?First of all, let’s 43________ train-spotting. There are said to be some 100,000 train-spotters in the UK. What do they do? Well, exactly as the title suggests, they spot trains, that is, they stand in train stations, look at the serial numbers of the trains that leave and arrive and write them down. The 44________ is to have seen every train in the country.Being keen on railways and trains is not a 45________ hobby and dates back to 1804 when Richard Trevithick built the first steam locomotive, which pulled a load of ten tons of iron, 70 men and five wagons along a nine-mile stretch of track in two hours. As the number of trains grew and they got faster and faster, so did the interest in them grow. Is this any 46________ than people who love cars?So, what do you need to be a train-spotter? Well, it’s a wonderfully 47________ pastime—all you really need is a pen or pencil and a notebook to write down the train numbers. The modem train-spotter may also carry binoculars(望远镜)and a video camera, but for the purists these are 48________.It’s interesting to note that despite the stigma(污名)of train-spotting, there have been famous railway 49________ in history, such as the poet WH Auden, the comedian Michael Palin and, of course, Alfred Hitchcock, who was a fan of trains and featured them regularly in his films, especially The 39 Steps. There is evidence, too, that being a train-spotter is not necessarily a(n) 50________ British hobby.One glance at the US train sites should be enough to 51________ you that transatlantic train-spotters are alive and well. In America, they try to call rail fans ‘trainfans' and talk of ‘trainfanning’.. Don’t l et this 52________you—these people are train-spotters and there are a lot of them. Each month, two million pages are visited on the website .So call them ‘nerds' or ‘geeks’, but they are here to stay and this is 53_________ not a hobby that is violent or dangerous in any way, nor does it cause any kind of damage to the environment. What do you think is healthier—sitting in front of a TV screen and 54________ those who do something that doesn’t interest you? Or going out and finding and followin g your 55 ________whatever that happens to be? I know what I think.41. A. discover B. know C. wonder D. consider42. A. occupation B. reputation C. ignorance D. practice43. A. face B. find C. discuss D. define44. A. aim B. answer C. advice D. approach45. A. special B. modem C. life-long D. personal46. A. stranger B. more interesting C. more common D. freer47. A. relaxing B. weird C. inexpensive D. unpopular48. A. relieving B. priceless C. sufficient D. unnecessary49. A. enthusiasts B. engineers C. developers D. passengers50. A. originally B. peculiarly C. inevitably D. progressively51. A. warn B. promise C. convince D. disappoint52. A. hurt B. seize C. oppose D. fool53. A. formerly B. similarly C. astonishingly D. certainly54. A. criticizing B. envying C. training D. imitating55. A. suggestion B. step C. passion D. modelSection 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)The number of devices you can talk to is multiplying—first it was your phone, then your car,and now you can boss around your appliances. Children are likely to grow up thinking everything is sentient, or at least interactive: One app developer told The Washington Post that after interacting with Amazon’s Alexa, his kid started talking to coasters. But even without chatty gadgets, research suggests that under certain circumstances, people anthropomorphize everyday products.We personify things because we’re lonely. In one experiment, people who reported feeling isolated were more likely than others to give free will and consciousness to various devices. In turn, feeling attached to objects can reduce loneliness. When college students were reminded of a time they’d been excluded socially, they made up by lying about their number of friends on social networks—unless they were first given tasks that caused them to interact with their phone as if it had human qualities. The phone apparently stood in for real friends.When we personify products, they become harder to cast off. After being asked to evaluate their car's personality, people were less likely to say they intended to replace it soon. And anthropomorphizing objects is associated with a tendency to accumulate.So how do people assign characteristics to an object? In part, we rely on looks. On humans, wide faces are associated with dominance. Similarly, people rated cars, clocks, and watches with wide faces as more dominant-looking than narrow-faced ones, and preferred them—especially in competitive situations. An analysis of car sales in Germany found that cars with grilles(格栅) that were upturned like smiles and headlights that were slanted(倾斜的)like narrowed eyes sold best. The purchasers saw these features as increasing a car’s friendliness and aggressiveness, respectively. It’s little wonder so many companies use mascots(吉祥物)to bring brands to life. An analysis of 1,151 brand characters found symbols that were human or humanlike to be common.Personifying products and brands can backfire, however. When a coffee maker was anthropomorphized in an ad (“I am Aroma” versus just “Aroma”),consumers felt betrayed by increases in its price. Now that speech-enabled coffee makers are on the market, maybe the machines can sweet-talk their way back into consumers, hearts.56. The word “anthropomorphize”(in paragraph 1) most probably means_________.A. think highly of somethingB. find a better way to rate somethingC. see something as humansD. use something as often as possible57. For the college students, the interaction with the phone served as a reminder that .A. they were not lonelyC. they needed real friendsB. the phone had human qualitiesD. the phone was not always necessary58. The writer mentions an analysis of car sales in Germany in order to_________.A. show that friendliness is better received than aggressivenessB. highlight that a symbol looking like a smile appeals more to peopleC. explain why so many companies use mascots to promote their brandsD. illustrate that people will judge something according to its appearance59. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Consumers should know more about a product before it is on the market.B. Products with a mascot are more likely to win consumers' hearts.C. Increases in a produces price may be accepted with a good ad.D. The personification of a product may not always work.(B)University Shotokan Karate ClubLearn Karate—self-defense and fitnessThe university karate club was founded in 1962. All grades from beginners to advanced are welcome. The classes are suitable for both men and women and several women have obtained their black belt.TUESDAY AND THURSDAY6.00—8.00 p.m.WEA VER HOUSE GYMFIRST LESSON FREEHardly any of us have experienced real violence, but, over the last few years, attacks on innocent people have increased. Each of us has some ability to defend ourselves, and by learning a form of self-defence, we are not only increasing that ability, but also doing something to build our own sense of respect. Karate will show you a lot of simple and effective techniques to protect yourself, giving you increase self-confidence.Far too many people think martial arts (武术) are about violence. Martial arts training is based on a lot of respect, self-discipline, self-control and non-violence. We learn basic etiquette, courtesy and tolerance. Good manners and consideration for others are expected at all times.Karate is the practice of blocking and striking techniques for the purpose of self-defence, health and self-development. Karate exercises the entire body. Techniques are practised on both sides of the body, therefore muscle imbalances do not occur and the strength, coordination, flexibility and agility of both sides of the body are improved. Regular training in Karate improves the body’s physical endurance and flexibility. It also helps concentration and produces the mental calm and assurance that come from knowing we can defend ourselves.Karate has many benefits but they do not come easily or overnight. Training requires ongoing commitment and hard work. Some of you will give up, but a few of you will get your black belt.60. The passage is mainly intended to_________.A. tell readers the benefits of KarateB. attract readers to join the clubC. encourage people to get their black beltD. correct people’s misunderstand of Karate61. What can be learned about University Shotokan Karate Club?A. More men than women have been its members.B. It tests members to see what level they are at.C. Members don’t need to pay for the lessons.D. It offers 4 hours of lessons every week.62. According to the passage, which of the following statements about Karate is true?A. It cultivates people’s respect for themselves as well as for others.B. It involves people’s arm muscles more than body musclesC. It makes people healthy physically instead of mentally.D. It focuses as much on self-defence as on attack.(C)In the classic novel The Day of the Triffids, giant plants terrorise humanity. Triffids can walk and are equipped with poisonous stingers, but their real power lies in their ability to communicate and so plot against us.It sounds far-fetched, but since John Wyndham’s book was published in 1951, one aspect of this fiction has proved to be science fact: plants do talk to one another. It has long been known that insects such as pollinators (传粉者)and pests can distinguish between plants by the chemicals they release. What’s new is the idea that plants use their emissions to talk among themselves. “Plants release chemicals into the atmosphere—these can be viewed as a language in the sense that a plant releasing the chemicals can be viewed as ‘speaking’ and the plant receiving them as ‘listening’ and then responding,” says chemical ecologist James Blande at the University of Eastern Finland.Now we are discovering that air pollution can disrupt these communications. In one study, Blande and his colleagues put individual bumblebees into a box containing paper flowers resembling those of black mustard (芥末). When the scientists injected the scent of real black mustard flowers that grew in either a clean or polluted atmosphere the bumblebees’ re actions were unequivocal: they were immediately attracted to the unpolluted scent, while that from polluted air left them flying around aimlessly.It’s not just the clarity of plant language that gets disrupted,the “loudness” is affected, too. To find out how much things have changed since pre-industrial times, Jose Fuentes at the University of Virginia and his colleagues made a computer model that included historic air pollution levels. It revealed that scents(气味)produced by flowers that could once be picked up kilometres away now travel as little as 200 metres.Even between clean and dirty environments today, a similar reduction in signal can be seen. Take lima beans. When one plant is attacked by spider mites, it emits chemical signals that make others nearby produce more sugary nectar. This, in turn, attracts predatory mites, which eat the attackers. If the atmosphere is clean, Blande found, the beans easily communicate with neighbours growing 70 centimetres away. But in polluted conditions, their warning cries can’t be heard more than 20 centimetres away.63. The writer mentions the novel The Day of the Triffids in order to_________.A. show how far-fetched the novel isB. introduce the topic of the passageC. warn readers of a possible dangerD. illustrate a new discovery of plants64. The word “unequivocal”(in paragraph 4) is closest in meaning to_________.A. familiarB. unpredictableC. differentD. inter-related65. What can be inferred from the passage?A. The scent of plants can’t travel in a shorter distance in polluted airB. Classic novels are usually based on some proved scientific facts.C. It was in pre-industrial times that pollution came into existence.D. Warning cries made by insects are getting softer and softer.66. What is the passage mainly about?A. Chemical signals vary with the age of plants.B. Pollinators and insects either damage or benefit plants.C. Pollution has an impact on the communication between plants.D. Plants communicate with each other by means of what they emit.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.We may have 750 friends online,but we’re lonelyMy phone and my laptop are within constant touching distance, whether Tm eating, drinking, in the shower, or watching the football. Before I get up every morning, I check my email, my texts and my Twitter feed. By the time I’ve got out of the shower, it’s time to do it again. I have a constant drip-drop of information from any of the 750 online friends and followers that I associate with. ______67______. How does a 28-year-old man get like this?______68______ In a recent survey of young people, 60 percent said they found it difficult to make friends ‘in real life’ compared with online. I’m way beyond being an awkward teen, but I am wired up most of the day, as are most of my friends. I go to parties, pubs and dinners, but I am there only in spirit. Far from bringing me closer to people, my phone drives me further away.I feel isolated. During working hours, I chatter away on social-networking sites, delaying tasks. I am in a constant state of distraction. Paradoxically(矛盾地), I no longer see the verypeople I want to see becaus e I have been ‘talking’ to them all day.Last weekend, I threw a dinner party. The moment that the food arrived, one best friend aged 26 got up to make a phone call while my other best friend, 27, sat through dinner checking Twitter for football scores. _______69_____ Social networking dominates.The terrifying thing is that none of us can go cold turkey. ______70______If you’re an alcoholic, you can avoid alcohol, but how do I avoid the internet or my phone? I need it to do my job, because my employers demand that they can contact me at any time.That's the problem with social networking. You are hardwired in, but you are always the same cool distance apart.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.Is Alan Sugar a Role Model?In this paper I would like to discuss the question 4Is Alan Sugar a role model for people going into business?9 There are certainly reaso ns to answer 'yes’ or ‘no’ to this question.Alan Sugar has definitely been a successful businessman and celebrity. He left school at 16 with no qualifications and started his own business selling electrical goods out of the back of a van. He now has an estimated fortune of £830 million and is the 84th richest man in the UK. His Amstrad CPC 464 was one of the first home computers and by the end of the 1980s Amstrad had a stock market value of £1.25 billion. In the nineties and later he started buying and selling companies such as Sinclair, Betacom, Viglen and eventually sold Amstrad itself, at a profit. He was also Chairman of Tottenham Hotspur Football Club. He has now become a TV celebrity with his own TV series The Apprentice', which is a reality TV show where a group of young business people try to win an important position in Alan Sugar’s company.On the other hand, Alan Sugar has, for a long time, not been very popular with many people. He has a reputation for being a rude and insensitive man. He has tr eated the contestants on ‘The Apprentice’ badly. In fact Alan Sugar is best known for saying ‘You’re fired!’ to someone in every episode. Many business people have also said that. ‘The Apprentice’ actually shows you how not to run a business, rather than how to run one. Even his business skills have been questioned. Amstrad was very unsuccessful in the nineties and many people blame Sugar personally for that failure.In conclusion, Alan Sugar is certainly not an ideal role model. However, in my opinion Alan Sugar is a role model because he started with nothing and finished a millionaire. Such a story surely has lessons for all of us.V.

that‟s nothing,” Mayor Pam Fogarty said of the punishments.“But it‟s the most we could do.People are saying to me, …Let‟s go burn down their house.‟”51.________ is the real person contributing to the girl‟s death.A.Josh Evans B.Ron Meier C.Lori Drew D.Craig McGuire52.Why was the woman NOT punished by the authority?A.Because she wasn‟t very rude and was only regarded as immature.B.Because she had nothing to do with the girl‟s death.C.Because all people agreed not to put her into prison.D.Because what she had done didn‟t go against the law.53.From the passage, we can know that ______.A.Megan Meier had her own page on MySpace.comB.the girl believed Josh Evans was an imaginary boyC.after the girl died, her parents found the murderer at onceD.it was the police who found the death of Megan Meier54.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _______.A.the mayor was tired and wanted to have a breakB.the measure to punish the criminals wasn‟t severeC.Pam Fogarty hadn‟t tried his best to solve the problemD.burning down such bad men‟s house is the best solutionBThe holiday shopping season is once again upon us.The super malls and smaller shopping centers will all be packed as hurried Americans search for the perfect gift.The crooks and thieves that prey upon innocent shoppers are well aware of this fact.Even if you don‟t in volve yourself with holiday gift buying, you could end up a victim of theft.Thieves do not distinguish the holiday shopper from the everyday shopper.Thieves only know that there are more potential targets of opportunity this time of year.They also know that many people are complacent (不以为然的) about personal safety issues year round.They‟ll factor in the belief that many people take on added stress this time of year while running from store to store with so much to do and so little time to do it.Shoppers who might normally consider personal safety an afterthought push it back even further as they try to negotiate their way through the month of December.College students are not an exception to the rule!As a member of our university community, you‟re also easi ly influenced by the dangers of mall shopping this time of year.Take a minute and picture any of the local area malls.Close your eyes and think about the overflowing parking lots and the crowds moving around.The sights, sounds and distractions all can lull you into a state of personal safety complacency.Aside from the shoplifters who steal merchandise from store shelves are the thieves who perpetrate (犯) snatch and grab crimes.And this is the sort of crime that you‟re most vulnerable to, especially when yo u find yourself carrying a large number of shopping bags and packages.However, as is the case with most other types of criminal behavior, there are a number of crime prevention measures you can take to lessen or stop your chances of becoming a victim.So take the time to read and then put into practice the following holiday shopping tips.55.The author is most probably _______.A.a newspaper reporter B.a novelistC.a member of university community D.a police spokesman56.What d oes the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.Shoppers.B.Thieves.C.Personal safety issues.D.College students.57.Why is a person more likely to become a victim of theft during holiday shopping?A.Because he often has much to buy.B.Because he often does shopping in a hurry.C.Because there are crowds of shoppers.D.All of the above.58.What is the writer‟s purpose in writing this passage?A.To tell readers different kinds of crimes.B.To make readers aware of holiday shopping dangers.C.To give advice on selecting the perfect gift.D.To introduce American public security situation.59.Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?A.Holiday shopping safety.B.Suitable shopping places.C.Personal safety during holidays.D.How to identify a thief.CBEIJING — The rescue operations at a coal mine accident have ended with 105 miners dead.The StateCouncil has organized an investigation team to probe (调查) into what caused the disaster in the city of Linfen, North China‟s Shanxi Province.Preliminary investigations show the illegal mining of an unauthorized seam, and the number of miners who had been sent down the shaft far exceeded its capacity.This mine was found to have long disregarded the rules to steal state coal, and did not have a list of miners employed to check the number of miners missing after the accident.How did such a coal mine get all the necessary licenses for production? How did it pass the three safety inspections the local government organized last month?In response to this disaster, the Shanxi governor promised to set up hotlines for people to report illegal coal mines and rewards as high as 100,000 yuan for tip-offs.We appreciate the action this governor has taken to solving the coal mining problems, and we believe that the reporting scheme will help to stop the existence of illegal coal mines.But at the same time we have reason to question how governments at various levels supervise these mines.The sad fact that such a mine with serious safety problems could pass three consecutive local government safety inspections in a month is enough to tell us how ineffective the safety inspections were.What if these inspections were just a formality? What if the inspectors were bribed by the mine owners to turn a blind eye to the safety dangers? We can well imagine what would happen if reports about mine problems were handled by such officials.So a thorough probe must find out who are responsible for the death of so many miners.A real safety inspection and management system must be established to guarantee that safety dangers will be removed.60.What is NOT one of the causes of this coal mine accident?A.The workers didn‟t operate properly.B.The mine didn‟t obey t he rules to mine for coal.C.A lot more miners than allowed were working under the mine.D.The safety inspections were ineffective.61.According to the writer, who should be further investigated?A.Mine owners and miners.B.Miners‟ familie s and mine staff.C.Government officials and safety inspectors.D.The Shanxi governor and miners.62.What can we infer from the passage?A.More than 105 miners died in the disaster.B.Some other coal mines like this one exist in Shanxi province.C.Safety inspectors just turned a blind eye to hidden dangers.D.The three inspections were only a formality.63.What does the underlined word “tip-offs” probably mean in Paragraph 4?A.Some warnings.B.Some money for one‟s service.C.Some secret information.D.Some pieces of advice.DMany people are tired of their jobs and know they want to give something back to the environment, but have no idea where to look for a green-collar job.That‟s where consultants such as Marie Kerpan can help out.Tired of her own job as a career adviser at a New Y ork firm, and expecting the looming trend of green career changers, Kerpan in 2000, positioned herself as an environmental career consultant — the first, she claims, of her kind.Since then, her company, Green Careers, has helped thousands of people assess what cause their skills and interests are best suited to — which could be anything from renewable energy to water conservation — and has helped them get hired.Most of her clients come from middle management or higher, and are seeking what she calls a path-of-least-resistance move —“doing something you already know how to do and putting it in the context of the green agenda,” she explains.One former human resources manager at General Electric, for exa mple, had “a whole bag of tools, and justhad to figure out how to use them” in a green job.The solution was simple enough — she landed a post as human resources manager at an organic foods company.But if someone prefers his green career to be a completel y new experience, that‟s okay too.“This is a new frontier, and there‟s also a lot more freedom to make a greater change,” says Kerpan.Such was the case with architect-turned-activist Horowitz.As partner in San Francisco‟s KMD Architects, he seemed to have all: a central role in successful commercial projects, frequent travels to exciting destinations, and enough downtime to mind his own Sonoma V alley vineyard.But through his involvement with Equator Environmental, a for-profit group he co-founded with his nephew Gerrity Lansing, Horowitz awakened an inner passion for the environment.The creation and sale of carbon credits (碳排放信用), he realized, could make more profit by conserving rainforests than destroying them.64.According to the passage, what is a green-collar job?A.A job about human resources management.B.A job to deal with water conservation.C.A job about protecting the Earth.D.A job engaged in doing physical labor.65.What kinds of people tend to take on green-collar jobs?A.People from the countryside.B.Those who are good at growing green vegetables.C.Anyone who is tired of his present job.D.Those who have been successful in their well-paid jobs.66.Why do people change their present jobs for green-collar ones?A.Because they can breathe fresh air and enjoy natural scenery.B.Because they can live an easy life in green.C.Because they are tired of their present jobs and want to do something good to the environment.D.Because they can make more profit.67.What is the main topic of this passage?A.tching to green-collar jobs.B.What green-collar jobs are.C.The way to get green-collar jobs.D.Advantages of green-collar jobs.EBBC Complaints Code of PracticeHow to complainThere are

One possible solution is desalination, which is the process of removing salt from seawater to make it drinkable. Desalination plants are becoming more common around the world, especially in areas where freshwater is scarce.Desalination is not a new idea. The ancient Greeks used a method called distillation to remove salt from seawater. Today, there are several methods used for desalination, including distillation, reverse osmosis, and electrodialysis. Each method has its advantages and disadvantages, but all of them require a significant amount of energy to operate.The main advantage of desalination is that it can provide a reliable source of freshwater in areas where it is scarce. However, there are also some disadvantages. The process can be expensive, and it can also have negative effects on the environment. For example, the brine waste produced by desalination plants can harm marine life if it is not properly managed.6. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Desalination is the only solution to the world's water shortage.B. Desalination is a process that removes salt from seawater.C. Desalination is a new technology that is being developed.D. Desalination has both advantages and disadvantages.7. Which method of desalination was used by the ancient Greeks?A. DistillationB. Reverse osmosisC. ElectrodialysisD. Filtration8. What is one of the disadvantages of desalination?A. It requires a lot of energy.B. It is very expensive.C. It can harm the environment.D. It produces a lot of waste.BIn recent years, more and more people have become interested in eco-tourism, which is a form of travel that aims to have a low impact on the environment and local culture. Eco-tourists often visit remote areas to experience nature and learn about local cultures, and they are committed to preserving the environment and supporting local communities.Eco-tourism can have many benefits for both the environment and local communities. By visiting remote areas, eco-tourists can help to support local economies by spending money on local goods and services. This can help to create jobs and improve the standard of living for local people. Additionally, eco-tourism can help to protect the environment by promoting sustainable practices and raising awareness about environmental issues.However, eco-tourism is not without its challenges. One of the main challenges is ensuring that the activities of eco-tourists do not harm the environment or local cultures. This requires careful planning and management to ensure that the impact of tourism is minimized. Another challenge is ensuring that the benefits of eco-tourism are shared fairly among local communities.9. What is the main purpose of eco-tourism?A. To make money for local communities.B. To have a low impact on the environment and local culture.C. To visit remote areas and experience nature.D. To learn about local cultures and support local economies.10. What are some benefits of eco-tourism?A. It can help to support local economies and protect the environment.B. It can help to create jobs and improve the standard of living for local people.C. It can help to promote sustainable practices and raise awareness about environmental issues.D. All of the above.11. What are some challenges of eco-tourism?A. Ensuring that eco-tourists do not harm the environment or local cultures.B. Ensuring that the benefits of eco-tourism are shared fairly among local communities.C. Both A and B.D. Neither A nor B.三、完形填空(共20分)One day, a poor farmer was working in his field when he found a golden lamp. He rubbed the lamp, and a genie appeared. The genie said, "I will grant you three wishes."

of a trip.C.To compare prices from different companies.D.To introduce a new company.BWith autumn on the horizon,the season’s first Osca r competitors are here.Already,the Hollywood Reporter has predicted that the often-snubbed(冷落的)Leonardo DiCaprio could win.Although before we get swept up in predictions,it’s nice to remember that little gold men are not the reason we love the movies.They shouldn’t be the primary reason for acting in them either.Bill Murray knows this first hand.Murray was positioned to win his first-ever Oscar Academy Award for 2004’s“Lost in Translation”,but helost it to Sean Penn.Years later,Murray explained how he too k the defeat instride(从容应对),and his words should act as a blueprint for anyone who has failed:“I went through it once before and it’s nice to get nominated and win some prizes.You get to go to dinners and tell little stories and so forth.Then you get to get dressed up.And then you get to be on TV,which is sweet.And you can either win or lose.Well you’re not supposed tosay‘lose’when you talk about the Oscar.You are supposed to say‘not chosen’.But I later realized tha t I had gotten a little caught up in the possibility of winnin g.So,shame on myself for getting caught init.But I won a lot of the prizes for Lost in Translation.So I thought it didn’t seem unnatural to expect that I would be rewarded just one more time.S o when it didn’t happen,I thought,‘Well,that’s kind of funny.’But to get prizes is not why you work.”Murray isn’t alone in those feelings.No mention of actors without Oscars would be complete without recognition of Leonardo DiCaprio,who said,“I don’t th ink I ever expected anything like an Oscar ever,totell you the truth.That is not my motivation when I do these roles.I really am motivated by being able to work with great people and create a body of work that I can look back and be proud of.”Perhaps neither Murray nor DiCaprio will ever be introduced as an Academy Award-winning actor,but winning an Oscar for acting shouldn’t be the point.Here are some other amazing actors who never won an Oscar,even if you think they did:Julianne Moore,Brad Pitt,JohnnyDepp,Tom Cruise,Harrison Ford,Will Smith.And they have proved that countless times before.25.We can learn about Bill Murray from the passage that_________.A.he felt ashamed that he didn’t win the Oscar.B.he never expected himself to win the Oscar.C.he had already won many other awards before he failed in Oscar.D.he is the first actor who had been predicted to win the Oscar but failed.26.Leonard DiCaprio is motivated to act different rolesbecause_________A.he wants to win the Oscar.B.he can cooperate with great people.C.he wants others to take pride in him.D.he is not the only actor who hasn’t won the Oscar.27.The underlined word“that”in the last paragraph refersto“_________”.A.Neither Murray nor DiCaprio will won an Oscar.B.Winning an Oscar for acting shouldn’t be the point.C.Some amazing actors have never won an Oscar.D.You think that some actors should have won an Oscar.28.What is the writer’s attitude to Leonardo’s idea on winning an Oscar?A.Approving.B.CriticalC.Indifferent.D.Neutral.CIt’s generally believed that people act the way they do b ecauseof their personalities and attitudes. They recycle their garbage because they care about the environment. They pay$5 for a caramel brulée latt e because they like expensive coffee drinks.It’s undeniable that behavior comes from our inner dispositions(性情),but in many instances we also draw inferences about who we are, as suggested by the social psychologist Daryl Bern, by observing our own behavior. We can be strangers to ourselves. If we knew our own minds, why would we need to guess what our preferences are from our behavior? If our minds were an open book, we would know exactly how much we care about the environment or like lattes.Actually,we often need to look to our behavior to figure out who we are.Moreover,we don’t just use our behavior to lear n about our particular types of character—we infer characters that weren’t there before.Our behavior is often shaped by little pressures around us,which we fail to recognize.Maybe we recycle because our wives and neighbors would disapprove if we didn’t.May be we buy lattesin order to impress the people around us.We should not believe that we always behave as a result of some inner disposition.Whatever pressures there can be or inferences one can make,people become what they do,though it may not be in compliance(符合)with their true desires.Therefore,we should all bear in mind Kurt Vonnegut’s advice:“We are what we pretend to be,so we must be c areful about whatwe pretend to be.”29.According to the passage,personalities and attitudes arecommonly believed to______.A.determine one’s behaviorB.reflect one’s tasteC.influence one’s surroundingsD.result from one’s habits30.Which of the following would Daryl Bern most probably agree with?A.A kind person will offer his seat to the old.B.One buys latte out of true love of coffee.C.One recycles plastics to protect the environment.D.The return of a wallet can indicate one’s ho nesty.31.What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in the passage?A.We fail to realize our inner dispositions.B.We can be influenced by outside pressures.C.Our behavior is the result of our true desires.D.Our characters can shape our social relationships.32.What does the author mainly discuss in the passage?A.Personalities and attitudes.B.Preferences and habits.C.Behavior and personalities.D.Attitudes and preferences.DGravitational waves are the ripples(波纹)in the pond of spacetime.The gravity of large objects warps space and time,or“spacetime”as physicists call it,the way a bowling ball changes the shape ofa trampoline(蹦床)as it rolls around on it.Smaller objects will move differently as a result—like marbles spiraling(盘旋)toward a bowling-ball-sized dent(凹迹)in a trampoline instead of sitting on a flat surface.Scientists announced that they have succeeded in detecting gravitational waves from the violent merging(兼并)of two black holes in deep space.The detection was regarded as a victory for acontroversial,delicately crafted,billion-dollar physics experiment and as confirmation of a key prediction of Albert Einstein's General Theory of Relativity.There is no obvious,immediate consequence of this physics experiment,but the scientists say this opens a new window on the universe.Until now,astronomy has been almost exclusively a visual enterprise:Scientists have relied on light,visible and otherwise,to observe the cosmos.But now gravitational waves can be used as well.They could potentially take a census of black-hole mergers,spot thecollisions of ultra-dense neutron stars(中子星),probe the inner dynamics of exploding stars and discover theoretical“cosmic strings”left over from the big bang.These waves will be particularly useful for studying blackholes(the existence of which was first implied by Einstein’s theory)and other dark objects,because they’ll give scientists a bright beacon to search for even when objects don’t emit actual light.Mapping the abundance of black holes and frequency of their mergers could get a lot easier.Since they pass through matter without interacting withit,gravitational waves would come to Earth carrying undistortedinformation about their origin.They could also improve methods for estimating the distances to other galaxies.It will also start a new era of astronomy in which gravitational waves are tools for studying the most mysterious and exotic objects in the universe.33.According to the passage,which of the following is true about the experiment of gravitational waves?A.It is a success and was approved of by all.B.It is well designed though time and money consuming.C.It proves that black holes do give out gravitational waves.D.It proves one of the key predictions o f Einstein’s General Theory of Relativity right.34.Why is gravitational waves important?A.Because scientists have relied on light,visible and otherwise,to observe the cosmos.B.Because they have been used to discover facts about the inner dynamics of exploding stars.C.Because they could make it possible to probe objects in total darkness even when they don’t give out light.D.Because mapping the abundance of black holes and frequency of their mergers could be impossible without them.35.The u nderlined word“undistorted”in paragraph 6 probablymean_______A.Unrelated.B.Unfamiliar.C.Unchanged.D.Unreal.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分1 0分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。
