2020年高三英语三模试卷及答案

2020年高三英语三模试卷及答案第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AThe question of whether our government should promote science and technology or the liberal arts in higher education isn’t an either / or one, although the current emphasis on preparing young Americans for STEM (science, technology, engineering, maths)-related fields can make it seem that way.The latest congressional report acknowledges the critical importance of technical training, but also insists that the study of the humanities and social sciences must remain central elements of America’s educational system at all levels. Both areas are the key to producing citizens who can participate effectively in our democratic society, become innovative leaders, and benefit from the spiritual enrichment that the reflection on the great ideas of mankind over time provides.Parents and students who have invested heavily in higher education worry about graduates’ job prospects as technological advances and changes in domestic and global markets transform professions in ways that reduce wages and cut jobs. Under these circumstances, it’s natural to look for what may appear to be the most “practical” way out of the problem; “major in a subject designed to get you a job” seems the obvious answer to some, though this ignores the fact that many disciplines in the humanities characterized as “soft” often, in fact, lead to employment and success in the long run. Indeed, according to surveys, employers have expressed a preference for students who have received a broadly-based education that has taught them to write well, think critically, research creatively, and communicate easily.Moreover, students should be prepared not just for their first job, but for their 4th and 5th jobs, as there’s little reason to doubt that people entering the workforce today will be called upon to play many different roles over the course of their careers. The ones who will do the best in this new environment will be those whose educations have prepared them to be flexible. The ability to take advantage of every available tool and insight—picked up from science, arts, and technology—to solve the problems of the future, and seize the opportunities, will be helpful to them and the nation.1. What does the latest congressional report suggest?A. STEM-related subjects help students find jobs in the information society.B. The humanities and STEM subjects should be given equal importance.C. The liberal arts in higher education help enrich students’ spiritual life.D. Higher education should be adjusted to the practical needs of society.2. What is the main concern of students when they choose a major?A. Their interest in relevant subjects.B. The academic value of the courses.C. The quality of education to receive.D. Their chances of getting a good job.3. What does the author say about the so called “soft” subjects?A. They benefit students in their future life.B. They broaden students’ range of interests.C. They just improve students’ communication skills.D. They are essential to students’ healthy growth.BI dropped out of college after my first year. Three years later, I returned to college after having been stuck in a dead-end job, working at a department store. I saw school as my way out. But I quickly found myself up against the same problems that had caused me to give up before. I was in over my head with college-level algebra (代数) and a heavy workload of reading and writing homework. In addition, I was still unsure of my career (职业) direction。

2020年湖北省当阳市第三中学高三英语三模试卷及参考答案

2020年湖北省当阳市第三中学高三英语三模试卷及参考答案第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AA brother and a sister have been reunited (重逢) after more than 60 years, thanks to a letter in the Welwynand Hatfield Times. For years John Hannant kept a photo of his long-lost sister, hoping they would meet again.Margery, the eldest of three children, had signed up with the Royal Air Force as part of the war effort, when John was still a baby.The family lost touch and as many years passed only a single letter gave a clue to her whereabouts (下落). The clue was enough for a WHT reader to recognize Margery and put the family back in touch.John, 67, said he had been searching for a long time and a friend suggested writing to the paper.“That’s the one that made it, the letter to the paper,” he said. “It’s like a dream that comes true. The last time we ever heard from Margery was in 1953 after the terrible floods. She wrote home to know if we were all right.My sister Dorothy wrote back, but Margery had moved again and never got the letter.”Having retired from his job as a gardener at Park House, Mr Hannant decided to take action.He and his wife Doreen traveled to Margery’s home in Chelwood Avenue, Hatfield, which she shares with her husband Jack Cooke.Now 88, Margery was recovering from her heart operation, but immediately recognized her brother. John said, “It’s something I never thought that was going to happen but I always hoped it would.” AS well as finding his sister, John has also discovered he now has a nephew, a niece and six grandnieces and grandnephews.1.The headline of the news would be “________”.A.An unforgettable and moving experienceB.The Hannant family lost touch because of warC.A brother and a sister reunited after 60 yearsD.The importance of a letter to WHT2.Margery left her family because ________.A.she attended the air schoolB.she joined the Royal Air ForceC.she had to feed her familyD.a big flood hit her hometown3.Who helped the family reunite after many years?A.Margery’s husband Jack CookeB.The photographer of the photo of Margery.C.A neighbour of Mr Hannant.D.A reader of WHT.BI once had my Chinese MBA students brainstorming on “two-hour business plans.” I separated them into six groups and gave them an example: a restaurant chain. The more original their ideas, the better, I said. Finally, five of the six groups presented plans for restaurant chains. The sixth proposed a catering service. Though I admitted the time limit had been difficult, I expressed my disappointment.My students were middle managers, financial analysts and financiers from state-owned enterprises and global companies. They were without talent or opinions, but they had been shaped by an educational system that rarely stressed or rewarded critical thinking or inventiveness. The scene I just described came in different forms during my two years teaching at the school. Papers were often copied from the Web and the Harvard Business Review. Case study debates were written up and just memorized. Students frequently said that copying is a superior business strategy, better than inventing and creating.InChina, every product you can imagine has been made and sold. But so few well-developed marketing and management minds have been raised that it will be a long time before most people in the world can name a Chinese brand.With this problem in mind, partnerships with institutions like Yale and MIT have been established. And then there's the “thousand talent scheme.” this new government program is intended to improve technological modernization by attracting top foreign-trained scientists to the mainland with big money. But there are worries aboutChina's research environment. It's hardly known for producing independent thinking and openness, and even big salary offers may not be attractive enough to overcome this.At last, forChina, becoming a major world creator is not just about setting up partnership with top western universities. Nor is it about gathering a group of well-educated people and telling them to think creatively. It's about establishing a rich learning environment for young minds. It's not that simple.4. Why does the writer feel disappointed at his students?A. Because there is one group presenting a catering service.B. Because the six groups did not cooperate well in the brainstorm.C. Because all the students copied a case for the difficult topic.D. Because the students' ideas were lacking in creativeness.5. Which of the following scenes is NOT considered as lack of creation?A. Papers were often downloaded from the Internet.B. Students often said that copying is a preferable business strategy.C. Students combine knowledge and critical thoughts to solve a problem.D. Case study debates were written up as well as recited.6. We can infer form the passage that ________.A. China can make and sell any product all over the world from its own creation.B. high pay may not solve the problem ofChina's research environment.C. cooperation with institutions has been set up to make a Chinese brand.D. the new government program is aimed at encouraging imagination.7. Which is the best title for the passage?A Look for a new way of learning B. Reward creative thinkingC. How to become a creatorD. Establish a technical environmentCHumans are the only creature that gets around by standing up and putting one foot in front of the other. Our ability to walk upright has allowed humankind to travel great distances and survive changing climates, environments and landscapes.Countless scientific studies have found that walking is really good for us and this simple act can provide a number of healthimplications, which help people live longer. In fact, a walking routine, if done properly, might be the only exercise people need.How much walking should one aim for? You’ve likely heard we need 10,000 steps a day. That’s about 5 miles. But contrary to popular belief, this recommendation doesn’t come from science. Instead, itis from a 1960s advertising campaign to promote a pedometer (计步器) in Japan. Perhaps because it’s a round number and easy to remember, it stuck.Since the 1960s, researchers have studied the 10,000-steps-a-day standard and have turned up mixed results. Although 10,000 steps is certainly a healthy and worthwhile goal, it’s not fit for all.For instance, a recent Harvard University study involving more than 16,000 senior women found that those who got at least 4,400 steps a day greatly reduced their risk of dying early when compared with less active women.The study also noted that these benefits continued up to 7,500 steps. This 7,500 mark isn’t surprising: It’s similar to common public health recommendations, such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s recommendation of 150 minutes of moderate (适度的) physical activity a week for adults.8. What does the underlined word “implications” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. BenefitsB. Problems.C. Habits.D. Manners.9. Where does the 10,000-steps-a-day standard come from?A. A Harvard University study.B. Science research on health.C. A pedometer advertisement.D. Public health recommendation.10. What can we know from the last paragraph?A. 7,500-steps-a-day standard is the best choice for all.B. More than 16,000 old people were involved in the study.C. Those who walk at least 4,400 steps a day won’t die early.D. 150-minute moderate exercise a week for adults is advised.11. What does the author mainly want to tell readers?A. The more you walk a day, the healthier you will be.B. We can benefit from continuous and proper walking.C. Walking upright helps humankind to explore the world.D. Advertisements can always tell us some scientific suggestions .DTofight for the conservation of forest ecosystem, several ecologists including Daniel Janzen convinced Del Oro, an orange juice producer, to donate part of their forestland to a national park. In return, Del Oro was allowed to throw large amounts of waste in the form of orangepeels(皮) on a 3-hectare piece of land within the national park at no cost. Dealing with tons of leftover peels usually involved burning them or paying to have them poured into a landfill, so the proposal was very attractive.But a year later, another juice company challenged the deal in court, arguing that their competitor was "polluting a national park". They ended up winning, and the deal between Del Oro and the national park fell through.Then in 2013, while discussing possible research avenues(途径,手段)with Timothy Treuer, Daniel Janzen mentioned the orange story. Feeling interested, Treuer decided to stop by that piece of land that had been covered with fruit waste 15 years earlier. What he found shocked him."While I would walk over exposed rock and dead grass in the nearby fields, I'd have to climb through undergrowth and cut paths through walls ofvines(藤) in the orange peel site itself," said Timothy Treuer.Treuer and his team spent months picking upsamples(样品), analyzing and comparing them. They found great differences between the areas covered with orange peels and those that were not. The area withorange waste had richer soil.The effect that the orange peels had on the land is probably not that surprising to people familiar withcomposting(施肥), but what is really shocking is that a judge actually thought the waste of orange "mined" a national parkand stopped it from going forward. Now that Timothy Treuer's study has received worldwide attention, this type of "ruining" is being seriously considered as a way of bringing forests back to life.12. What did Del Oro usually do with orange peels?A. Add them to fuel.B. Feed them to animals.C. Burn or bury them.D. Make them into cakes.13. What can we know about the deal between Del Oro and the national park?A. It lasted 15 years.B. It was signed by Treuer.C. It was made in about 1998.D. It was broken by Del Oro.14. What was Treuer's finding?A. Orange peels contain much fibre.B. Orange peels can make soil richer.C. Orange peels rot away in a short time.D. Orange waste ruined the national park.15. What is the author's attitude toward the judge mentioned in the last paragraph?A. Disapproving.B. Positive.C. Worried.D. Admirable.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

2020年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试(山东模拟卷三)英语试题(解析版)

2020年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试(山东模拟卷三)英语试题第一部分阅读(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A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

ATWO NEWS REPORTSNEWS REPORT 1Even before 5G is widely commercially available, Ch inese telecom giant Huawei has reportedly begun researching the next generation of wireless technology—6G.Tech website “iPhone in Canada^ reported that Huawei has confirmed to local media “The Logic(逻辑学;逻辑性)"that it has started researching 6G technology at its lab in Ottawa, Canada and “ is in talks with Canadian university researchers about working on development of the next-generation wireless system," citing a report by The Logic.Song Zhang, vice-president of research strategy and partnership of Huawei in Canada, said “5G is very new, and looking at 6G is part of the so-called 5G evolution.”Huawei has not commented on the report, according to The Paper.NEWS REPORT 2A Japanese startup called SkyDrive Inc. has begun conducting test flights of their prototype flying car with a human pilot.The company hopes to be able to make a full public demonstration(演示;展示)of the vehicle later this summer.The test flights are being conducted at a protected indoor facility at the company’s research flight center outside of Nagoya.There have been a number of previous test flights, but they were all conducted via remote control and no human pilot on-board.According to a report in The Asahi Shimbun, SkyDrive says the car could be ready for a limited retail release as early as 2023, and mass production by 2026.SkyDrive was founded by former engineers from Toyota and they intend their vehicle to be the world's smallest flying car.In 2017, Toyota gave the company an infusion(灌输)of around $ 350,000 to help develop flying vehicles.The company said it won't say more about how the test flights have been proceeding(行动;进行)so far, but says things are going well enough to continue making them.1.What we can learn from NEWS REPORT 1?A.Huawei and Apple cooperate to develop 6G technology.B.Huawei is the first company to study 6G technology.C.Huawei’s research team studies 6G technology in Canadian laboratories.D.Huawei is not optimistic about the prospects of 6G.2.Which of the following is NOT true about NEWS REPORT 2?A.The company hopes to have an opportunity to make a full public demonstration of the vehicle.B.Previous flight tests were controlled by remote control.C.The car may not be able to mass produce in the near future.D.The car was completely invented and produced by Toyota.3.Which news section are we likely to see these two news reports?A. Entertainment.B. Science and Technology.C. Story.D. History.BA team of farmers, university researchers and environmentalists is busy at work in the wetlands of eastern England. They are digging into the area’s wheat fields, looking for wet earth that could hide lost ponds underneath. It takes the group of diggers just a few hours to revive(使复活)one dying pond. It's near Hindolveston, a thousand-year-old village close to the North Sea.“As soon as the buried ponds get water and light, they just spring to life," says Nick Anema, a farmer in nearby Dereham. He's brought seven ponds on his farm back to life. “Frogs and all the insects like dragonflies can be seen here again,” he said.But the battle for the wetlands is a struggle. While efforts to stop losses are continuing, wetlands around the world are still being filled in and covered up. Over the past three centuries,almost 90% of the world's wetlands have disappeared. The loss rate has increased since the 1970s, with wetlands now disappearing three times faster than the world's forests.Some 5,000 wetland-dependent animal species could die out because of such losses. Wetland loss can also affect human beings. Wetlands act as natural storage areas for water. Losing those areas could lead to more severe flooding in many parts of the world. And the act of removing water from wetlands can release huge amounts of carbon dioxide, a major contributor to climate change.Human-made wetlands, however, aren't decreasing in number. Rice fields, water reservoirs and agricultural stock, ponds have all increased since the 1970s. Yet scientists are concerned about this phenomenon. “People brag(自夸)about the fact that there's been no net loss(净损失)of wetlands. But what they've done is destroy natural wetlands and create artificial ones," says Stuart Pimm, a Duke University professor. “It makes it look like you’re doing no harm when the reality is very different. ”4.What's the team’s work in eastern England intended for?A.Digging wet earth for research.B.Researching into an old village.C.Bringing dying ponds back to life.D.Finding wetlands created by people.5.What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?A.Various functions of wetlands.B.Serious consequences of wetland loss.C.Wetlands' key role in climate change.D.Wetlands' importance to living things.6.Which of the following reflects Stuart Pimm's opinion?A.Artificial wetlands can't replace natural ones.B.Creating artificial wetlands upsets the balance of nature.C.Keeping the total number of various kinds of wetlands is important.D.It's important to balance the numbers of natural wetlands and artificial ones.7.What can be the best title for the text?A.Seeking for More WetlandsB.Saving the World's WetlandsC.Causes of Wetlands' DisappearanceD.Natural Wetlands vs. Artificial WetlandsCAs the novel coronavirus epidemic continues, one school after another has organized online classes. The most common form is live streaming, in which all participants, teacher and students alike, sit in front of a computer camera and see each other via the platform.Many teachers and students simply wear casual clothing for the class, and jokes emerge about each other's appearance. After all, most of the time it is the teacher appearing on screen, and the students, even if called on by the teacher, will only show their faces.Yet Shijiazhuang No. 1 Middle School in Hebei province recently triggered heated discussion by requiring teachers to wear formal suits and students to wear uniforms while attending online classes.By Saturday morning, the related topic has become one of the hottest topics on Sina Weibo, with 180 million views.“The practice can improve students' sense of formality in the online classes and make them more attentive, said Yao Haibo ," a head teacher of the school in a video clip. “It can also grant students a sense of honor and make them remember their identities as students. ”However, in the comment sections, some micro bloggers claiming to be students disagreed.“Not useful. Whether one works hard or not is not decided by a uniform," was the most highly voted comment, with 31,000 “likes"."Maybe a good move, but unnecessary," was another highly voted comment.Whatever the argument is, the problem might be solved in the not — so — distant future. According to official data, the number of newly confirmed diagnosed cases was 397 on Saturday.The students and teachers might, hopefully, see each other in classrooms soon.8. We can infer from the passage that .A.online classes are popular in schoolsB.teachers have classes online as the novel coronavirus epidemic continuesC.teachers and students can see each other via the platformD.teachers mostly appear on screen while students not9.Requiring students to wear uniforms while attending online classes is not because in Shijiazhuang No. 1 Middle School.A.jokes emerge about teachers and students' appearanceB.it can improve students' sense of formalityC.it can protect students from the novel coronavirusesD.it can make students remember their identities as students10. Official online classes in schools may soon because the number of newly confirmed diagnosed cases is dropping.A. continueB. stopC. disappearD. be forbidden11.What’s the writer's attitude towards wearing uniforms while attending online classes?A. Negative.B. Optimistic.C. Supportive.D. Objective.D“If you don't behave, I'll call the police" is a lie that parents generally use to get their young children to behave. Parents! lies work in the short term, but a new study led by NTU Singapore suggests that they're associated with harmful effects when the child becomes an adult.The research team asked 379 Singaporean young adults whether their parents lied to them when they were children, how much they lie to their parents now, and how well they adjust to adulthood challenges. Adults who reported being lied to more as children were more likely to report deceiving their parents in their adulthood. They also said they faced greater difficulty in meeting psychological and social challenges.Lead author Assistant Professor Setoh Peipei from NTU Singapore's School of Social Sciences said, "Parenting by lying can seem to save time especially when the real reasons behind why parents want children to do something is complicated to explain. When parents tell children that "honesty is the best policy', but display dishonesty by lying, such behaviour can send conflicting messages to their children. Parents' dishonesty may eventually break trust and promote dishonesty in children. Our research suggests that parenting by lying is a practice that has bad consequences for children when they grow up. Parents should be aware of this and consider alternatives to lying, such as acknowledging children's feelings, giving information so children know what to expect, offering choices and problem-solving together, to help children develop good behaviour.”The analysis found that parenting by lying could place children at a greater risk of developing problems that the society disapproves, such as aggression and rule-breaking behaviour. Some limitations of the study include relying on what young adults report about their past experience of parents! lying. “Future research can explore using more information providers, such as parents, to report on the same topic," suggested Asst Prof Setoh.12.Why is a parental lie mentioned in the first paragraph?A.To introduce the topic for discussion.B.To tell a popular way to educate children.C.To prove the great influence of the police.D.To show the harmful effects of parental lies.13. The underlined word “deceiving" in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to.A.worryingB. abusingC. disappointingD. cheating14.According to the research, which of the following can parents do?A.Give children chances to choose.B.Force good behaviour on children.C.Let children solve problems alone.D.Stop children knowing what to expect.15.What does the last paragraph imply about the study?A. It is quite controversial.B. It is rather meaningless.C. It needs to be perfected.D. It demands honest responses.第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分,满分12. 5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。

China Satellite Navigation OfficeBPut your hand over your heart and sit very still. You may notice that the sound of your heartbeat is similar to the beat of a drum. Your heart starts beating before you are born and continues throughout your life. For this reason, the beating of a drum stands for the rhythm of life for many people around the world.InGhana, a country inAfrica, many schools use drums instead of bells to show the beginning and ending of class. Through the drum, the children ofGhanaalso learn about their history and culture. They hear old stories passed on through the music of the drum. The stories of the drum also teach children games, rules and lessons about behavior.For thousands of years inAfrica, drums have been used to tell stories of daily life and history. Drums told the coming of a king, the start of a war, or the birth of a child. They also allowed people to share messages. But how does a drum tell a story?InWest Africa, the most common drum used for communication is called a “talking drum”. By making higher orlower drum sounds, the drummer can make the drum “talk”.In many African languages, words go up and down in pitch (高音) when they are spoken, almost like a song. Depending on the pitch or tone (音调), the same sound can have many different meanings. For example, when spoken with two low tones, the African word “ilu” means “drum”. When spoken with one high and one low tone, “ilu” means “town”.Drum language works in the same way. Just as in spoken language, the word “ilu” has different meanings depending on how it’s drummed. When “ilu” is drummed with two beats using low tones, the word means “drum”. When “ilu” is drummed with two beats using one high and one low tone, it means “town”.Drummers create “words” to build ideas, sentences and stories. The next time you hear a song, listen for the heartbeat within the music. Can you hear the story of the drum?4. The first paragraph mainly tells us________.A. drums beat like our heartsB. drums have a long historyC. drums are widely used in the worldD. drums are important for many people worldwide5. From the text, we learn that inGhanadrums________.A. are not as useful as beforeB. teach children a lot of thingsC. help bring the war to an endD. are used in class by teachers6. The example of the African word “ilu” is used to show________.A. how a word can have different soundsB. how to speak African languagesC. how a drum tells storiesD. how to beat a drum7. What would be the best title for the text?A. Know the history of the drumB. Listen to the story of the drumC. Beat the drum of lifeD. Love me, love my drumCIdentifying the chemical makeup of pigment (色素) used in ancient documents, paintings, and watercolor1 s is criticalto restoring and conserving the precious artworks. However, despite numerous efforts, scientists had been unable to determine the source of folium, a popular blue dye used to color1 manuscripts (手稿) in Europe during the middle ages — from the 5th to the 15th century. Now, a team of researchers fromPortugalhas finally uncovered the mysterious ingredient responsible for the gorgeous blueish-purple color1 that helped bring ancient illustrations and texts to life.The research team began byporing overinstructions penned by European dye makers from the 12th, 14th, and 15th centuries. They found what they were seeking in a 15th-century text entitledThe Book on How to Make All the Color Paints for Illuminating Books. However, translating the instructions was no easy task. It was written in the now extinct Judaeo-Portuguese language, and though the source of the dye was traced back to a plant, no name was mentioned.However, by piecing together suggestions from the text, the scientists were able to determine that the dye was made from the bluish-green berries of the chrozophora tinctoria plant. After an extensive search, the team found a few varieties of the plant growing along the roadside near the town ofMonsarazin southPortugal.The detailed instructions gave the researchers critical clues — including the best time to pick the berries. “You need to squeeze the fruits, being careful not to break the seeds, and then to put them on linen (亚麻).” The scientist says the detail was important since broken seeds polluted the pigment, producing an inferior quality ink. The dyed linen, which was left to dry, was an efficient way to store and transport the pigment during ancient times. When needed, the artist would simply cut off a piece of the cloth and dip it with water to squeeze out the blue color1 .Once the key ingredient had been identified, the researchers began to determine the dye’s molecular structure. To their surprise, they found that folium was not like any other known permanent blue dyes — it was an entirely new class of color1 , one they named chrozophoridin. “Chrozophoridin was used in ancient times to make a beautiful blue dye for painting.” the team wrote in the study. “Thus, we believe that this will not be our final word on this amazing plant and its story and that further discoveries will follow soon.”8. The primary purpose of the study is to ________.A. restore and conserve ancient precious artworksB. determine the substance making up the foliumC. prove the ancient dye-making technique was organicD. identify which class of color1 folium belongs to9. The underlined phrase “poring over”in the second paragraph means ________.A. discussing publiclyB. testing repeatedlyC. passing directlyD. reading carefully10. What can be learned about the blue dye folium?A. It was essentially an inferior type of ink.B. It was the only kind made from wild berries.C. It could be carried and used easily.D. It was carefully squeezed from broken seeds.11. The article is mainly about _________.A. how the mystery ofa thousand-year-old blue dye was solvedB. why the researchers took the trouble to recreate the dyeC. what needs to be done to make an organic dye from a plantD. when and where the discovery of the dye was madeDAs an eco-minimalist, Su Yige has maintained an environmentally friendly and sustainable lifestyle for the past three years while studying in Canada. She takes her own bag when she goes grocery shopping and uses second-hand items as often as possible. She avoids almost all paper-related products unless she has to use a public toilet while away from home.Diligence and thrift are time-honored traditional Chinese virtues. Su's family is a good example of this, according to the native of Weihai, Shandong province. Although they have little formal “green” knowledge, her parents lead a very environmentally friendly life.For example, the family has used the same hair dryer for more than a decade, and Su remembers many of her mother's clothes from as far back as kindergarten. “As long as something can still be used, my mother will not replace it with a new item,” she said.“I frequently asked my father to bring the plastic bag back home after dumping our waste in the trash bin. He was unhappy, and argued that instead of making that request, I should go downstairs to dump the waste myself” she said. In another move, her father criticized her for doing too much shopping online. Eventually, they both made steps toward becoming better environmentalists. Her father brings the bag back for reuse and she has only bought two pieces of clothing online in the past six months.Back in Canada, Su is looking forward to finding a job related to sustainable development in China after she graduates as a computer science major in the summer.12. Which of the following best describes Su Yige?A. Conservative.B. Nostalgic.C. Economical.D. Productive.13. What can be found about Su's mother according to the third paragraph?A. She has a lot of formal green knowledge.B. She regards using the same items as a lifestyle.C. She always wears old clothes due to lack of money.D. She will not replace the old items until they are out of style.14. What can be inferred about Su and her father?A. Both of them like to criticize each other.B. Su's father is particular about her clothes.C. The relationship between them is very tense.D. They urge each other to become more environmentally friendly.15. What can we learn about the author soon after she graduates in Canada?A. She will stay there to look for a job.B. She will put effort into computer science.C. She will devote herself to her motherland's future.D. She will come back to China to stay with her parents.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Rioghna, a junior at Rochester Mayo High School, had spring sports to play. Hannah, a senior at University of Chicago, was going to have a spring break in Aruba. However, both were canceled because of COVID-19. But they soon recovered and now they are sitting at home, solving Rochester's problemsin their way. Pointing to the computer screen, Hannah tells her sister, “She is a nurse and her child needs to be matched.”The two sisters birthed their plan last Saturday on the drive home from picking up Hannah in Chicago. As more medical workers were sent to work, fighting against the fierce pandemic (流行病), the sisters knew many of their families would need childcare. At the same time, teens throughout Rochester were off school. So on Sunday, Hannah and Rioghna launched Step Up To Sit. Already they’ve paired more than 40 families with sitters.“The young people in the community are stepping up to do their part,” Hannah says, “We are delighted that we’re having an impact on people’s lives in this hard time.” For the last four days, 160 teens have registered to help, most willing to work free if paired with a family in need. With more and more teens joining in, the two sisters decide to launch Step Up To Shop, a platform for teens to deliver groceries to seniors.Rioghna acknowledges people of her age get a bad reputation as smartphone-addicted and selfish. The Pittock sisters are proving otherwise.“Amid the pandemic, people should be allowed to be upset and allowed to be a little bit down about the upset in their lives, but it’s about something bigger and recognizing we all have our part to play here,” Rioghna says.4. Why did the two sisters feel sorry for themselves?A.T hey would join in activities separately.B.They had to give up their planned activities.C.They were infected with COVID-19 seriously.D.T heir parents were sent to battle COVID-19.5. Step Up To Sit is a platform to ________.A.p air medical worker families with teen sittersB.c all on teens to deliver groceries to seniorsC.s pread basic health knowledge to peopleD.i nstruct teens to study online at home6. Which of the following best describes the two sisters?A.T olerant.B. Humble.C. Caring.D. Stubborn.7. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.S martphone addiction makes teens selfish.B.The Pittock sisters kept a low profile.C.People can do nothing against pandemic.D.T here is some misunderstanding of teens.CThe low percentage of women in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) careers is often attributed (归因于)to men being believed to be better at the sort of thinking those fields require. Though studies have debunked the view, they have largely been based on results acquired from various several standardized tests. Now, researchers from Pennsylvania’s Carnegie Mellon University have found evidence that is hard to overlook: MRI (磁共振成像) proves that young girls and boys use the same mechanisms and networks in the brain to solve math problems.The groundbreaking study to evaluate the biological gender differences in themath talent of young children was led by the university’s professor of neuroscience, Jessica Cantlon. For their study, the team selected 104 young children, between 3 and 10 years old, divided almost equally by gender. The scientists used a functional MRI to observe their brain activity as they engaged in math tasks. These included watching age-appropriate educational videos and doing math exercises such as counting and addition, as well as reading for comparison.“We looked at which areas of the brain respond more strongly to mathematics content in the videos and tasks, compared to non-math content like reading or the alphabet, ”Cantlon said. “When we do that in little girls, we see a particular network of the brain respond, and when we do that same analysis in boys, we see the exact same regions.”So why do girls and young women tend to avoid math and STEM careers in general? Cantlon thinks it may be rooted in social and cultural conventions. Previous studies have indicated that parentstend to spend more time with young boys in play that inspires spatial cognition (空间认知) — such as toys that involve learning number skills and shapes and solving puzzles. Educators werealso observed to spend more time with boys during math class.8. What does the underlined word “debunked” in paragraph 1 mean?A. Disproved.B. Supported.C. Confirmed.D. Overlooked.9. What does paragraph 2 mainly focus on?A. The purpose of the research.B. The process of the research.C. The participants of the research.D. The findings of the research.10. What contributes to the lack of women in STEM careers?A. Mental capacity.B. Gender difference.C. Traditional prejudice.D. Family background.11. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. MRI-A Great Helper in ResearchB. Toys-Boosters for STEM PotentialC. Boys and Girls: Equally Talented in MathD. STEM Careers: Calling for More WomenDAlgorithms (算法) affect nearly every part of a person’s experience on the Internet. Search engines are most people’s entry to the Internet. If a person wants to find information about something, they usually start with a search bar. As soon as they start typing or choosing links, the algorithm starts gathering data about every choice users make and uses that data to try to find the websites or information that most directly relate to what the user is looking for.The problem with algorithms is that they can limit the kinds of information people see, says MacMillan, a leading researcher with Project Information Literacy (能力). He argues this can be harmful to people’s critical thinking and lead them to believe that only one point of view is correct.Companies also pay to post advertisements for products that could relate to users’ search data. For example, if you search for places to take a vacation, you will likely start to see ads for travel companies, flights or hotels.Renee Hobbs, director of the Media Education Lab at the University of Rhode Island, however, argues that algorithms are not all bad. She says search engine algorithms can help you find what might be the most useful information faster. But she says it is in the interests of Internet companies to keep users on the Internet for as long as possible so they see more ads.The current generation of young people grow up using the Internet and they are prone (易于遭受) to distrustful information. That is why schools must train students how to use the Internet more wisely in their studies. It is the duty of education to keep students informed about the world around them. Yet it is not the duty of education alone. And lawmakers should consider increasing data protection rules. Individuals can also use a wide variety of websites to avoid algorithmic controls.12. How do algorithms affect users’ Internet experience?A. They lead to slower Internet connection.B. They block ads for users automatically.C. They always help users get reliable links.D. They determine the content users receive.13. What is Hobbs’ attitude to algorithms?A.D oubtful.B. Supportive.C. Objective.D. Indifferent.14. What can be concluded from the last paragraph?A. Young people fall victim to the Internet.B. Data protection rules are already enough.C. Education is fully responsible for algorithmic controls.D. Joint efforts are needed to handle algorithmic controls.15. Which column of a magazine is the text most likely from?A. Science.B. Entertainment.C. Advertisement.D. Fashion.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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。

2020届湖北省当阳市第三中学高三英语三模试题及答案

2020届湖北省当阳市第三中学高三英语三模试题及答案第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项ABored with your life? Dreaming of something different? I always wonder what life would be like400 kmabove my head. That's where the International Space Station orbits the earth, with six astronauts living and working on board, for months at a time.How do they sleep? They spend the night floating in a sleeping bag inside a small cubicle (小隔间) on the ceiling. American astronaut Sunita Williams explains, “It's like a little phone booth, but it's pretty comfortable and it doesn't matter if I turn overand sleep upside down. I don't have any sensation (感觉) in my head that tells me I'm upside down.”Brushing your teeth in a place where you can't have a tap or a sink can be a challenge. Can you imagine the mess that running water would make in zero gravity? Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield uses a straw to put a big blob of water from a sealed bag onto an ordinary toothbrush and adds a little toothpaste which he has to swallow when he's done.Daily exercise is essential. The lack of gravity makes bones more fragile and muscles lose strength — so astronauts are encouraged to work out for at least two hours a day.The role of astronauts in the International Space Station is to act as lab technicians for scientists back on earth. So they spend their time maintaining their environment and performing and monitoring experiments in a confined space about the size of a Boeing 747. Almost every task is carefully planned by mission control — although most astronauts spend their first days losing things until they get used to sticking everything they use to the walls with Velcro, duct tape (强力胶带) or clips (夹子).One of their most valued perks (额外待遇) is the view from “the office”, dominated by that gigantic blue ball down there, sitting in the darkness of space. Wow! Absolutely breathtaking!1. When they sleep upside down, the astronauts willnot get dizzy because ________.A. they don't feel itB. they sleep in the daytimeC. they sleep in special sleeping bagsD. they are trained to adapt to the conditions of weightlessness2. What parts become weak if astronauts don't exercise?A. Their teeth and bones.B. Their brains and bones.C. Their bones and muscles.D. Their teeth and muscles.3. What is the passage mainly about?A. The Problems We Met in Space.B. Living and Working in Space.C. How to Become an Astronaut.D. The International Space Station.BIf you’ve ever had a dog, you know just how deep a connection you can develop with “man’s best friend”. But a dog has a much shorter life span — about 12 to 15 years long — than humans, which means every dog owner has to go through the heartbreaking moment when their loving pet passes away.Why not make a clone of that dog then? This is the solution offered by a South Korean company, Sooam Biotech Research Foundation. The company has successfully cloned at least 400 dogs, mostly for US customers, ever since it pioneered the technique in 2005. Now, Sooam Biotech is planning to introduce their business toUKdog owners, offering them dogs that look just like their lost ones.Meanwhile, another dog is selected to supply an egg.Researchers then replace the DNA in the egg with that from the skin cell and implant the egg into the womb (子宫) of a female dog. The egg grows into a puppy over the following two months. To clone a dog, researchers first need to take a skin cell from a living dog or one that has just died.The whole process takes less than a day, but it comes at a shockingly high price — around £63,000 (614,000 yuan). But if you can’t afford it now, you can also save the cells in a laboratory and access them at a later date. Just like identical twins of humans, they share the exact same DNA but there will still be small differences between them. “The spots on a Dalmatian clone will be different, for example,” Insung Hwang, head of Sooam Biotech, toldThe Guardian. However, as magical as cloning might sound, there is no guarantee that the cloned dog will be a perfect replica of the original one.Dog owners will also have to accept the fact that personality is not “clone-able”. Apart from genes, personality is also determined by upbringing and environment, which are both “random elements [that] cloningtechnologies simply cannot overcome”, Professor Tom Kirkwood atNewcastle University,UK, toldThe Telegraph.Perhaps bringing our dogs back with cloning is not the best way to remember them after all.Kirkwood, a dog owner himself, pointed out: “An important aspect of our relationship with them is coming to terms with the pain of letting go.”4. According to the article, Sooam Biotech Research Foundation is ______.A. working on plans to help dog owners enjoy their pets longerB. offering a way to help dogs give birth to more puppiesC. providing a service that will make copies of pet dogsD. introducing a completely new technique to clone dogs5. Which of the following statements about dog cloning is TRUE according to the article?A. Dog cloning technology hadn’t been put into practice until recently.B. Dog cloning is very expensive and usually takes several months to complete.C. Dog cloning is very popular among US andUKpet owners.D. Cloned dogs might develop different habits and characteristics even though they look very similar.6. Which of the following shows the correct order of the dog cloning process?a. an egg is taken from another dogb. a skin cell is taken from the pet dog and saved in a laboratoryc. the egg is placed in the womb of a female dogd. the DNA of the egg is replaced by the DNA from the skin celle. the egg grows into a puppy in two monthsA. acbde.B. adbce.C. bacde.D. badce.7. We can learn from the article thatKirkwood______ dog cloning.A. disapproves ofB. supportsC. is afraid ofD. is curious aboutCMy first week working in a restaurant, one of the servers said something that stuck with me: Everyone should work in a restaurant for at least a year. At the time, I didn't get it, but I took the advice to heart and worked in restaurants on and off for the next eight years. Before realizing it, I mastered many important skills, one of which is communication skill.When I was little, I was so shy that I used to hide behind my mom whenever someone spoke to me. And when I first started in restaurants, I had two personalities: Restaurant Lizzy and Home Lizzy. It was easier topretend to be a different person while at work, since it was so different from who I actually was. But gradually, the skills I learned working in restaurants helped Home Lizzy come out of her shell in the real world.When you work in a restaurant, you don't have the luxury of hiding behind your parents to avoid talking to people. I'm still 110% an introvert, but restaurant work helped me communicate. Working in a restaurant not only helped me speak clearly, deliberately and directly but also taught me how to talk about almost everything. Some guests don't want their servers to interact too much with them, and that's fine. But some sit at the bar simply to chat with you. You learn how to judge your guests' level of interest in communicating with you, and how to exit a conversation at the appropriate time.My restaurant work is something that I'm most proud of and I know I wouldn't be the person I am today without those eight years of experience. If you're still on the fence about working in a restaurant for that long, start with one year. I doubt that you'll look back.8. What did the writer think of the server's words?A. Impressive.B. Ridiculous.C. Amusing.D. Logical.9. What do we infer from Paragraph 2?A. The writer tried different jobs.B. The writer became more sociable.C. The writer used an invented name.D. The writer had a hard time at work.10. Which of the following best describes the writer's restaurant work?A. Boring.B. Relaxing.C. Worthwhile.D. Unchallenging.11. What message does the writer try to convey in this passage?A. A strong-willed soul can reach his goal.B. Things are difficult before they are easy.C. Communication skills advance your career.D. Restaurantwork helps to achieve a better self.DA North Atlantic right whale calf(幼崽) was discovered dead on the beach of an island off North Carolina. The male newborn was found on North Core Banks, part of the Cape Lookout National Seashore. The reports indicate that the animal died during birth or shortly after, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration(NOAA). Scientists took DNA to determine the calf’s mother.This is the beginning of the right whale’s reproduction(繁殖) season, which begins mid-November and runs through mid-April. NOAA called this death a disastrous start to the season. Each new right whale calf brings somuch hope for this badly endangered animals, and losses like this have a great impact on their recovery, NOAA said.The right whale is one of the rarest marine mammals(哺乳动物) in the world, according to NOAA. They will soon be extinct unless something is done to save it, researchers warn. This kind of whale has been experiencing an Unusual Death Event over the past three years, according to NOAA. Since 2017, at least 32 dead and 13 seriously wounded whales have been documented by the organization. “This means more than 10 percent of the remaining population,” according to NOAA.NOAA posted a piece of news on Monday, the same day they announced the calf’s death, warning boaters to be watchful as the whales are migrating(迁徙) nearly 1,000 miles along the Atlantic Coast. The organization calls for boaters to be watchful, slow down and to give these endangered whales plenty of room. They also ask all fishermen to remove their unused nets from the ocean to help avoid possibledamage.12. Why did scientists take DNA of the calf?A. To save its mother.B. To confirm its identity.C. To determine the time of its death.D. To uncover the cause of its death.13. How many right whales are left according to the passage?A. About 40.B. About 50.C. About 400.D. About 500.14. What do we know aboutNorth Atlanticright whales?A. Their reproduction season usually last about half a year.B. They are the rarest marine mammals in the world.C. They are experiencing a high death rate of newborns.D. Their habitat runs nearly 1,000 miles along the coast.15. What’s the main purpose of the news posted on Monday?A. To announce the calf’s unusual death.B. To remind boaters to watch the whales.C. To protect the boats against the whales.D. To assist the whales’ seasonal migration.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Lindsey whispers to Tori.With her eyes shining, Tori brags, "You bet I did, Sean told me two days ago."Who are Lindsey and Tori talking about? It just happened to be yours truly, Adam Freedman, I can tell you that what they are saying is (a)not nice and (b)not even true. Still, Lindsey and Tori aren't very different from most students here at Linton High School, including me. Many of our conversations are gossip (闲话).I have noticed three effects of gossip: it can hurt people, it can give gossipers a strange kind of satisfaction, and it can cause social pressures in a group.An important negative effect of gossip is that it can hurt the person being talked about. Usually, gossip spreads information about a topic—breakups, trouble at home, even dropping out—that a person would rather keep secret. The more embarrassing or shameful the secret is, the juicier the gossip it makes. Probably the worst type of gossip is the absolute lie. People often think of gossipers as harmless, but cruel lies can cause pain.If we know that gossip can be harmful, then why do so many of us do it? The answer lies in another effect of gossip: the satisfaction it gives us. Sharing the latest rumor (传言)can make a person feel important because he orshe knows something that others don't. Similarly, hearing the latest rumor can make a person feel like part of the "in group". In other words, gossip is satisfying because it gives people a sense of belonging or even superiority (优越感).Gossip also can have a third effect: it strengthens unwritten, unspoken rules about how people should act. Professor David Wilson explains that gossip is important in policing behaviors in a group. Translated into high school terms, this means that if everybody you hang around with is laughing at what John wore or what Jane said, then you can bet that wearing or saying something similar will get you the same kind of negative attention. The do's and don'ts conveyed through gossip will never show up in any student handbook.The effects of gossip vary depending on the situation. The next time you feel the urge to spread the latest news, think about why you want to gossip and what effects your "juicy story" might have.4. The author uses a conversation at the beginning of the passage to _________.A. introduce a topicB. present an argumentC. describe the charactersD. clarify his writing purpose5. An important negative effect of gossip is that it ___________.A. breaks up relationshipsB. embarrasses the listenerC. spreads information aroundD. causes unpleasant experiences6. Professor David Wilson thinks that gossip can ____________.A. provide students with written rulesB. help people watch their own behaviorsC. force school to improve student handbooksD. attract the police's attention to group behaviors7. What advice does the author give in the passage?A. Never become a gossiperB. Stay away from gossipersC. Don't let gossip turn into liesD. Think twice before you gossipCIt is becoming more and more important for researchers to closely observe our sea life, with climate change and overfishing damaging our oceans. However, this is almost impossible since human presence scares the animals. Now, thanks to The Soft Robotic Fish, also called SoFi, researchers may not only be able to keep a close eye on the creatures, but also uncover undersea secrets that have been confusing us for centuries.Built by MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL), the snow-white remote-controlled robot closely emulates real fish, complete with a flexible tail and two "fins". Though not the firstautonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) created to observe the oceans, SoFi solves many of the issues that have hindered (妨碍)the usefulness of previous robots.AUVs traditionally have had to be tied to a boat because radio frequency communications do not work well underwater. To solve the problem, CSAIL director Daniela Rus and her team used sound waves which can travel greater distances, allowing drivers using a waterproofed Super Nintendo controller to pilot SoFi from up to 50 feet away. To ensure SoFi can freely move around the ocean, a pump moves water from one balloon-like structure to the other through its soft rubber tail, while a controller fitted with a battery powers the robot through the ocean, unhindered by propellers (螺旋桨).During test dives in Fiji's Rainbow Reef, SoFi moved alongside the sea life at depths of 50 feet for up to 40 minutes at a time, taking high-resolution photos and videos. Even more importantly, it was able to do so without causing any disturbance. The researchers say sometimes the fish would swim alongside the strange-looking robo- fish out of curiosity, while at other times they appeared completely unaware of its existence.While SoFi currently only records videos, future versions will include sensors. "For us, this fish is magical," says Rus. “We imagine someday it might help us uncover more mysteries from the amazing underwater world that we know so little about."8. Why was SoFi created?A. To protect fish from being caught.B. To stop oceans from being polluted.C. To learn about the underwater worldD. To solve the issues AUVs have found.9. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “emulates” in Paragraph2?A. Feeds.B. Catches.C. Protects.D. Imitates.10. What is the third paragraph mainly about?A. The development of AUVs.B. Working principles of SoFi.C. How AUVs are used underwater.D. SoFi's contribution to fish protection.11. What is the main advantage of SoFi?A. It will not scare real fish.B. It can record videos.C. It is equipped with sensors.D. It cannot be seen by real fish.DNASA’s Curiosity vehicle recently recorded the largest level of methane(甲烷) ever measured during its seven-year Mars mission. The discovery is exciting because the existence of methane gas could support the case for life on Mars.Methane has no color or smell. A special instrument on Curiosity’s Mars Science Laboratory recorded the increased gas level. The device, called a laser spectrometer, measures levels of chemical elements and gases in the Martian atmosphere. In addition to methane, the instrument can record levels of water and CO2. Nearly all the methane gas found in Earth’s atmosphere is produced by biological activity. It usually comes from animal and plant life. But it can also be formed by geological(地质的) processes, such as interactions between rocks and water. NASA said the increased methane was measured to be about 21 parts per billion by volume (ppbv). One ppbv means that if you take a volume of air on Mars, one billionth of the volume of air is methane.It was not the first time Curiosity has found methane gas in the Martian atmosphere. About a year ago, NASA announced that Curiosity had discovered sharp seasonal increases in the gas. This time, NASA said the measured methane gas level was clearly larger than any others observed in the past. NASA officials even temporarily stopped Curiosity’s other activities to investigate further.“It’s exciting because microbial(微生物的) life is an important source of methane on Earth,” NASA said in a statement announcing the discovery. However, Curiosity’s team carried out a follow-up methane experiment that showed a sharp drop in levels of the gas. The second examination found the level was less than one part per billion by volume. That number was close to the background levels Curiosity sees all the time. The rise and fall of the methane gas levels left NASA scientists with more questions than answers. The scientists are continuing to study possible causes for the sudden increase. The methane mystery continues.Curiosity does not have instruments that can exactly identify whether the source of the methane is biological or geological. One leading theory is that methane is being released from underground areas created by possible life forms that disappeared long ago. Even though Mars has no active volcanoes, scientists believe it is also possible that methane is being produced by reactions involving carbon materials and water.A clearer understanding of methane levels over time could help scientists determine where they’re located on Mars. Scientists hope this understanding will come as Curiosity continues to collect methane data in its search for possible life.12. Curiosity discovered.A. the largest methane gas level ever observed on MarsB. the existence of life on MarsC. the reason for the increased methaneD. interactions between rocks and water13. Why did NASA officials once stop Curiosity’s other activities?A. To further examine the methane gas level on Mars.B. To seek possible life existing on Mars.C. To check the quality of Curiosity’s mission.D. To find seasonal increases in the methane gas.14. What can we learn from the last three paragraphs?A. Causes for the change of methane have been proved by Curiosity.B. Curiosity has proved the location of methane by instruments.C. Scientists think reactions involving carbon materials and water may produce methane.D. Identifying the source of methane has helped scientists search for possible life on Mars.15. The passage is probably taken from .A. a geography textbookB. a science newspaperC. a health magazineD. a travel brochure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。

2020届高三英语三模试卷及参考答案

2020届高三英语三模试卷及参考答案第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AIt’s a tempting habit for them to look at their smartphone rather than make eye contact with someone. There is so much to look at: photographs, social media feeds, messages and emails. No wonder they are glued to their screens. But is it good for them?There have been many claims about the damage looking at screens does to our eyesight. Some people feared staring at a small bright box could make us short-sighted. This is a particular concern for children and young people, who spend a higher percentage of time using electronic devices. BBC reporter, Rory Jones, says, “There is enough evidence that no matter how long teenagers are spending looking at screens, they come across information about issues such as anorexia and self-harm that could prove damaging to their mental health.”But a new study says time in front of computers and phones might not be as bad for young people as many think. Research by the Oxford Internet Institute examined data from more than 17,000 teenagers in theUK,Irelandand theUnited States. Their study concluded that most links between life satisfaction and social media use were tiny, accounting for less than 1% of a teenager’s wellbeing. Professor Przybylski, director of research, said, “99.75% of a person’s life satisfaction has nothing to do with their use of social media.” The research found that family, friends and school life all had a greater impact on wellbeing.So, does this mean young people can spend longer looking at social media? TheOxfordresearchers are confident about its findings and that any connection between screen time and mental health is very small. Dr. Max Davie, officer for health improvement at theRoyalCollege, calls the study a “small first step”, but he says there are other issues to explore, such as screen time’s interference(干预) with other important activities like sleep, exercise and time with family or friends. Perhaps for now, the “right” amount of screen time is only a matter of personal judgement.1. What is people’s common belief concerning screen time?A. Looking at screens does harm to young people.B. Screen time provides a chance for teenagers to learn.C. Most teenagers get near-sighted due to looking at screens.D. A small amount of time online does little harm to teenagers.2. What can we learn from the new study by the Oxford Internet Institute?A. Screen time has a great influence on people’s daily activities.B. The right amount of the screen time is related to its content.C. There is a close link between social media and self-satisfaction.D. Social bonds play a more significant role in people’s wellbeing than social media.3. Where is the passage most probably taken from?A. A science fiction.B. A science magazine.C. A research paper.D. An economics book.BAt the foot of the Tianmu Mountain in Zhejiang, a homestay (民宿) is attracting travelers from far and wide, which has won architectural (建筑学的) medal at the 2021 German iF Design Awards.The owners of the homestay are a couple in their late 30s who decided to return to their hometown three years ago. Li Xiumei used to be in charge of a division at a company in Hangzhou, and her husband was a sales director. It was an ordinary situation where Li’s husband was on business trips a lot and Li worked overtime on weekends. City life sometimes is not easy.In 2018, they quit jobs and went back to Dongtianmu village, which lies in a forest of bamboo. The first time they drove into the village was one late afternoon. The cooking smoke was rising from the foot of the mountain, which gave them a very different feeling form thecity.The homestay was built beside her husband’s old countryside house. The old house is preserved (保留), while a brand-new building was built on its side and the whole site is made up of for courtyards. It has been updated to have a hall, a tea room, a kitchen, a dining room. Japanese cherry trees are planted in the east courtyard. A swimming pool is placed in the west courtyard, with a bar located on one side.Li and her husband love gardening and music, and their new home gives them enough space to continue their interests and relax in the heart of nature. Li wants to share the quiet country life, so she makes her new home a homestay. In 2019, the homestay became an online hit after guests shared their experiences on social media. “The longer I stay here, the more I feel it was the right choice to come back, and this is more meaningful than making money,” Li says.4. How did Li feel about city life?A. Satisfied.B. Tired.C. Attractive.D. Noisy.5. What impressed the couple when first driving to the village?A. The smoke of cooking.B. The forest of bamboo.C. The smell of the village.D. The feeling of loneliness.6. What can we infer about the homestay from paragraph 4?A. It is ancient and broken.B. It can hold many guests.C. It has been rebuilt bythe couple.D. It must have been carefully designed.7. What’s more meaningful than earning money according to Li?A. Continuing their music dream.B. Staying at the old house.C. Living in the countryside.D. Developing the economy of cities.CElizabeth Bishop is considered one of the best American poets of the 20th century. She was born in Worcester, Massachusetts in 1911. Her dad died when she was just a baby and her mom never recovered from the loss. She went to live with her grandparents in Nova Scotia, Canada when she was five. Eventually Bishop attended Vassar College, where she began to write poetry.At Vassar she discovered Marianne Moore's poetry and met Ms Moore and began their life-long friendship. She later met poet Robert Lowell. She wrote tons and tons of letters to both of them, which is good for us because we would otherwise know very little of her personal life.Bishop published her first book of poetry in 1946 and wrote until her death in 1979. She would spend years working on a single poem. Her poems are not the result of hasty scribbling (匆忙乱写) on paper while eating breakfast. She would look through drafts of poems again and again and improve them until they were as close to perfect as she could get them.Reading Elizabeth Bishop is like being transported to the very place, the very moment she's writing about. She leads us to a microscope so we can see every smallest part of the scene. It seems that she's always asking us to notice more, and more until the poem is so clear in our minds that it's almost painful—like a light that's too bright.8. What do we know about Bishop's early life?A. She was mainly brought up by her grandparents.B. She spent her childhood mainly in Worcester.C. She was always encouraged by her parents.D. She started to write poems at five.9. Why are Bishop's letters to Moore and Lowell important?A. They have a deep influence on other poets.B. They offer much information about her life.C. They help us study Moore and Lowell's poetry.D. They prove she had friendships with famous poets.10. What can we say about Bishop's poetic creation?A. She liked to write in the morning.B. She could write poems at high speed.C. She tried her best to achieve perfection.D. She published hundreds of books of poetry.11. Which word can be used to best describe the style of Bishop’s poems?A. Enthusiastic.B. Romantic.C. Humorous.D. Exact.DIt is universally acknowledged that renewable energy sources such as solar, wind and hydropower are all much better for the climate than fossil fuels.It is true for wind and solar. However, the picture for hydropower is more complicated than we think.A new study by the Environmental Defense Fund analyzed the climate impacts of 1,500 hydropower facilities across the globe. That accounts for about half of hydropower generation worldwide. The researchers looked at whether the facilities behave as a greenhouse gas sink or as a source. To figure this out, they looked into all the different components that help determine a hydropower facility's greenhouse gasemissions (排放).“There are so many contributors to greenhouse gas emissions from hydropower — but essentially, the majority of greenhouse gas emissions arise from the reservoir (水库) itself, as vegetation and soils are submerged underwater in the dam thatis used for the hydropower generation.” said lissa Ocko, a senior climate scientist at the Environmental Defense Fund and co-author of the study. As the submerged vegetation breaks down, it releases greenhouse gases such as CO2.“The larger the surface area of the reservoir, the more greenhouse gases are going to be given out from that reservoir. Also, the temperature plays a role as well how warm the reservoir is will affect how much greenhouse gases are produced and given out from the reservoir.” added Ocko.Through their analysis, Ocko and her co-author Steven Hamburg, also with the Environmental Defense Fund, discovered that the climate impacts of hydropower cover a complete range. The good news is that some facilities perform just as well as wind and solar. But shockingly, more than 100 facilities are actually worse for the climate than fossil fuels. The study is in the journalEnvironmentalScience and Technology.This finding doesn't mean we should forget about hydropower. “But we just need to be careful to make sure that we have climate benefits. There are a lot of situations where hydropower can be equal to wind and solar. So it really depends on the specific facility." said Ocko.12. How do scientists prove hydropower facilities' effect on the climate?A. By making comparisons.B. By conducting experiments.C. By referring to previous studies.D. By analyzing causes and effects.13. What are the main sources of greenhouse gases from hydropower?A. Vegetation and soils.B. Heat and sunlight.C. Pollutants in the reservoir.D. Components of the generators.14. What have Ocko and her co-author Steven Hamburg found?A The surface area of a reservoir decides the climate.B. Hydropower often influences the climate in all aspects.C. Some facilities perform much better than wind and solar.D. Fossil fuels are worse for the climate than over 100 facilities.15. What is the text mainly about?A. Scientists urge an end to hydropower.B. Hydropower is not necessarily green.C. Hydropower is worse than fossil fuels.D. Renewable energy is a complicated issue.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

AThe Breakfast ClubStarred by John Hughes,1985Five high school students with nothing in common are forced to spend an entire Saturday together in detention(拘留).At seven am.they had nothing to say,but by four pm,they had bared their souls to each other and became good friends—the Jock,the Brain,the Criminal,the Princess,and the Kook.They were finally able to talk about themselves while they were forced to stay together.Pretty in Pink.Starred by Howard Deutch,1986Pretty in Pink looks at the central dilemma of adolescence where one’s dreams are much larger than one’s confidence.Molly Ringwald plays Andie Walsh,a poor girl living with her father and working in a downtown record store.The school she attends is full of wealthy snobs(势利小人)and she likes a rich kid Blane.There is nothing new about the plot—rich boy and poor girl love each other and snobbery nearly destroys the romance.CluelessStarred by Amy Heckerling and Alicia Silverstone,1995Cher,played by Alicia Silverstone,is one of the most popular girls at Beverly Hills High School where rich kids hang out,talk to each other on cell phones and occasionally attend classes.At 15 going on 16,Cher has it all—a white Jeep,an extensive wardrobe with a computer to help select the perfect dress,and an unbelievable ability to charm,cajole and whine(哄骗和哭诉)until others obey her requests.The dialogue is wiry and entertaining.1.The Breakfast Club is about__________.A.a prince and a princess B.several criminalsC.several students D.some tourists2.we can conclude from Pretty in Pink that__________.A.the love between Molly and Blane aren’t going smoothlyB.Molly and Blane eventually get marriedC.Molly’s and Blane’a parents quite agree to their loveD.the love between Molly and Blane defeats snobbery3.Which of the following is starred by Howard Deutch?A.The Breakfast Club.B.Pretty in Pink.C.Clueless.D.Beverly Hill Schoo1.4.We can infer that the Breakfast Club,Pretty in Pink and Clueless are three_____.A.world-famous paintings about religionB.Disney’s cartoons about love storiesC.films about teenagersD.ancient Roman fairy talesBPeople back in the United States are always asking me,“What’s it like to live in China?”They hope to hear strange stories about weird food and cultural conflicts.Instead,I tell them that living in China is like being a baby.Please don’t misunderstand me.I don’t think that Chinese people are babies.I am a baby.Or at least,I become one when I leave my house.That’s because babies can’t read,and when I leave my house in Beijing,I'm illiterate(不识字的).This can be dangerous.If a sign says,“Watch out for big angry bears,”in Chinese,I will continue walking,completely ignorant of my peril(危险).Then a bear will eat me for breakfast.I have started to recognize a few characters,but they seem impossible to ever learn withouta lifetime of study.When I see a character I like.I give it a name.There is“The Square,”“The Octopus(章鱼),”“The-upside-down Octopus,”and my favorite,“Upside-down Octopus on an airplane.”However,I still don’t know their sounds or meanings.They are just beautiful mysteries to my eyes.Because I can’t read,city streets present an endless series of enigmas.If I see a business,I wonder,“Is that a restaurant? A dentist? A lawyer’s office?”Once,while hungry,I saw a big colorful sign.I walked in and asked a realtor(房屋中介)to see the drink menu.Speaking of menus,eating at restaurant is a daily misadventure.Many places have photos of food,which is helpful.But if they have no photos,I walk from table to table and point at whatever looks delicious.I apologize if I’ve ever interrupted your dinner to point at your plate.I didn’t mean to be rude.I was just a hungry baby !5.Why does the author think living in China is like being a baby?A.Some Chinese people behave like babies.B.It’s comfortable to be a baby in China.C.He is as curious as a baby about Chinese things.D.He is like a new-born who can’t read at a11.6.What do we know about the author?A.He can order food in simple Chinese.B.He doesn’t know many Chinese Characters.C.His spoken Chinese is better than his written Chinese.D.He memorizes Chinese words based on their sounds.7.In Paragraph5,what does the underlined word enigmas mean?A.Stories.B.Mirac1es.C.Choices. D.Puzzles.8.What is the passage mainly about?A.The author’s love for Chinese food.B.The language barrier the author meets in China.C.Cultural conflicts the author faces in China.D.How the author overcomes difficulties in learning Chinese.CMorgan Holmes had taken part in Boy Scouts of America activities for a few years,but she only became a full member recently.This was because the Boy Scouts began accepting girls from fifth grade to 12th grade into a new program called Scouts BSA.It brings girls the opportunities boys have,including becoming Eagle Scouts,the highest rank of the Boy Scouts.“I'm loving it,”Morgan,now 17,said.“I finally get to wear the uniform now.”Six middle school girls have joined Morgan in Troop48 in Scouts BSA.Some were members of Girls Scouts,and some have brothers in the Boy Scouts.Now brothers and sisters can take part in activities.Morgan knows Boy Scouts activities well.Starting when she was 14,Morgan went on high-adventure outings like hiking 1 00 miles and shooting guns.But she’d never been able to progress to become an Eagle Scout.Now Morgan’s goal is to reach the top rank of Eagle Scout.She regularly runs a mile to build up her body.Now,she’s planning on camping in the snow.“The journey to get there is really exciting,”she said.Since Boy Scout activities are led by the Scouts themselves,Morgan,as the oldest girl,will be organizing activities and teaching the girls to tie knots and other skills.One of those girls in Troop48 is Nicolette U1rich,who is also in the Girl Scouts.Her mother,Sasha Ulrich,said she sees,the Boy Scouts as more leadership oriented and the Girl Scouts as more culturally oriented.This will be shown by all upcoming gathering where girls will learn about different food and cultures from around the world.“Girl Scouts is a great group and she’11 continue to do that.”Sasha said.“But she also wanted the opportunities provided by the Boy Scouts.”9.What did Morgan want to do after becoming a full

wanted to hike long distances and shoot guns with boys.10.What is the best word to describe Morgan?A.Communicative B.Helpful C.Creative D.Adventurous 11.What does Sasha Ulrich think of Boy Scouts?A.It is more culturally oriented.B.It helps to build teamwork.C.It helps to improve leadership.D.It is more interesting than Girl Scouts.DOne step too farScientists have been trying to figure out how to alter the genes of humans for many years now,and it looks like they’ve finally cracked(破解)the code.But while this may seem like a great step forward in science,some also believe that it’s one step back when it comes to ethics.In August,a group of scientists from the US and South Korea worked together to successfully edit a human embryo and remove a genetic mutation(突变)that would have led to heart disease,reported The Guardian.This was achieved with the help of CRISPR,a gene-editing tool that allows scientists to“cut and paste”human DNA.Although this was the first example of an embryo’s genes being changed successfully,the benefits of gene editing have already been tested in living patients.In 2015,a five-month-old girl from the UK was saved after doctors used edited cells to fight off her cancer.As of today,she’s alive and well.And in the US last year,scientists managed to remove HIV cells from several patients by editing the genes inside their bodies.Some people hope that in the future,diseases or birth detects could simply be “edited out”.However,others believe this could lead to so-called designer babies,giving parents the option to choose everything from eye color to intelligence.“You could find wealthy parents buying the latest‘upgrades’for their children,leading to even greater inequality than we already live with,”Marcy Darnovsky,director of the SanFrancisco Center for Genetics,told BBC News.In spite of these ethical concerns,experts say it’s not possible to create the“perfect”human being.Despite the progress scientists have made,We don’t understand human genes enough to give all unborn child great brainpower or amazing singing abilities.“Right now,we know nothing about genetic enhancement,”Hank Greely,a director of sciences at Stanford University,US,told The New York Times.“We’re never going to be able to say,honestly,‘This embryo looks like it would score high on the two-part SAT.’”So it looks like if we want good exam results,or to impress people with our piano skills,we’11 have to stick with the old fashioned method of plain hard work—at least for now.12.The underlined word“alter”in Paragraph 1 probably means________.A.record B.change C.remove D.increase13.Why do some people consider human gene editing a step backwards?A.They don’t think it is an effective way to light diseases.B.They are concerned that it could lead to genetic mutations.C.They think it could lead to designer babies and increased inequality.D.They worry that it could make parents abandon children with birth defects.14.What was the first successful example of human embryo gene editing?A.A genetic mutation related to heart disease was removed by scientistsB.A newborn baby with cancer was saved by edited cells.C.HIV cells were removed from patients’bodies.D.Some birth defects were simply edited out.15.What can we conclude from the text?A.Gene editing is regarded as the perfect way to treat birth defects.B.There is still a long way to go to fully understand human genes.C.Gene editing could help enhance human intelligence in the near future.D.Scientists are pessimistic about the future of gene editing.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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。

AEcobee3 Smarter WiFi ThermostatSmart thermostats have become the face of smart home technology for most, but depending on what your home is lie, it’s possible to say the ecobee3 is superior.Most of the smart thermostats carry the same benefits, including the ecobee3. They can learn your preferences and schedules, and then adjust the temperature accordingly. They’re better-looing and more enjoyable to use than the basic pieces of plastic that occupy most households. Their very presence will probably mae you more conscious about saving energy. And once you’re able to heat up or cool down your house from your phone, without having to get out of bed, you won’t want to go bac.If you live in a larger household, the ecobee3 can be much more convenient—provided you pic up a couple more remote sensors. Yes, it gets pretty epensive at that point, but havingthose gives you effective control over the temperature in different rooms around your house. In comparison, other thermostats’ measurements are largely limited to the area in which they’ re installed (安装).If you live in a smaller place, that’s no big deal; the ecobee3 still has distinct advantages. It is touch-enabled and more spacious, maing it less annoying when you want to enter a WiFi password, see weather information, and so on. Still, all the smart thermostats are pretty great. Which one is best just depends on whether you need a whole-home solution or a more straightforward one. For now, if it’s the former, go with the ecobee3.Ecobee3 Smarter WiFi Thermostat with Remote Sensor, available at all shopping websites.21. What is the function of the ecobee3?A. Planning schedules.B. Maing decoration.C. Adjusting temperatures.D. Storing information.22. According to the passage, one of the advantages of the ecobee3 is that ______.A. it can be operated easily by phoneB. it has different siesC. it is a product without using energyD. it follows the same pattern23. What maes the ecobee3 superior?A. It costs less than those similar products.B. It may wor without access to WiFi networs.C. It is more effective with fewer remote sensors.D. It can control the temperature in a larger area.【答案】CADBIt used to be a matter of fact when Peter Pan —a character from James Matthew Barrie’s 1911 boo —said “All children, ecept one, grow up.”But this “fact” doesn’t seem to apply to today’s world anymore.According to the NPD Group, a US maret research company, sales of toys to adults in the U increased by more than 20 percent in 2016, three times the pace of the children’s toy maret itself. These toys ranged from pules and Lego building sets to vehicle models and action figures. And more than half of the sales came from millennials — people born between the 1980s and 2000s.“Adults of the 21st century are channeling their inner child, one toy at a time,” commented website oreaboo. This is also why these adults are sometimes referred to as “idults”.According to Frederique Tutt, an analyst at NPD, the motivation of these grown-ups is to escape the stress of today’s fast-paced world. They are driven toward the more immediate pleasures brought by toys than those brought by, say, getting a promotion, which is far less easy to achieve.“It reminds me of the playful side of life,” Rob Willner, a 25-year-old PhD student in the U, told The Telegraph when taling about his love for Lego, which he said brings him both comfort and entertainment.Despite this, some social scientists see the trend as disturbing. To Fran Furendi, a professor at the University of ent in the U, the fact that so many adults are pursuing “the thrills of youth” is the evidence that “adulthood has got nothing attractive about it anymore”, he told The New Yor Times. “That’s actually quite sad.”But scientists are probably just worrying too much. According to Canadian comic boo artist Todd McFarlane, collecting toys could simply be a way for people to epresstheir individuality. “It’s just pop culture stuff. It’s stuff that says, ‘I lie a little of this and I lie a little of that’,” he told ABC News. “It’s no big deal.”So now that over 100 years have passed since Peter Pan, perhaps it’s time to introduce a new “fact”, as stated in t he tagline (标语) of the U fashion brand IDULT “Growing old is mandatory (被迫的), but growing up is optional.”24. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 2 imply?A. Many adults still have some childlie features.B. Something old is not suitable for a new world.C.

Rob Willner believes that the pleasure brought by toys is easier to achieve.B. Frederique Tutt believes that some adults enjoy playing with children’s toys to escape the stress.C. Fran Furendi believes that the thrill of youth does not attract adults.D. Todd McFarlane is worrying too much about collecting toys.26. What is the writ er’s attitude towards the trend of growing idults?A. SupportiveB. DoubtfulC. CriticalD. Disapproval27. What can be the best title for the passage?A. Growing Old Or Growing UpB.

Staying Young Forever【答案】ABADCA British man who lived in the Alps as a goat for three days has won one of this year's Ig Nobel pries.Thwaites had special articifical organs made so he could wal lie an animal. The tae-off awards, which are not quite as famous as the real Nobels, were handed out during their annual ceremony at Harvard University, US. Other studies honoured during the event eamined the personalities of rocs, and how the world loos when you bend over and view it through your legs. On the surface, all the celebrated research sounds a bit silly, but a lot of it - when eamined closely - is actually intended to handle real-world problems. And nearly all of the science gets published in peer-reviewed(同行评议的), scholarly journals. The firm has been awarded the chemistry prie for the way it cheated emissions tests.Goat-man Thwaites actually shares his biology prie with another Briton, Charles Foster, who also has spent time in the wild trying to eperience life from an animal's perspective. Clearly, the practice is fast-becoming a national character. Mr Thwaites admits his effort was initially an attempt to escape the stress of modern living, but then became a passion. He spent a year researching the idea, and even persuaded an epert in action, Dr Glyn Heath at Salford University, to build him a set of goat legs."I was just sort of waling around, you now chewing grass, and just looed up and then suddenly realised that everyone else had stopped chewing and there was this tension which I hadn't ind of noticed before and then one or two of the goats started tossing their horns around and I thin I was about to get in a fight," he told BBC News.The American science humour magaine, the Annals of Improbable Research, is the inspiration behind the Ig Nobels, which are now in their 26th year. Thursday night's ceremony was reported as disorderly as ever, with audience members throwing the compulsory paper planes while real Nobel winners attempted to hand out the pries.28.What does the underlined word “tae-off” in P ara2 most probably mean?A. famousB. interestingC. ridiculousD. serious29.Which of the following is correct?A.Ig Nobles are as well-nown as the real Nobels.B.Ig Nobels are rooted in the Annals of Improbable Research.C.Both Ig Nobels and the real Nobels are of equal importance to human achievemnet.D. Ig Nobels are nothing but a laughter.30.What words can best describe Thwaites according to the passage?A.selfish and ambitiousB. amaing and patientC. humorous and greedyD. ridiculous and courageous31. What could be the best title for the passage?A. As we sow, so we shall reapB. Ig Nobels or real Nobels, which is demanding?C. Preservation—Alpine’s goat man in actionD. Ig Nobel win for Alpine’s goat man.【答案】BCBDDElectric cars are dirty. In fact, not only are they dirty, they might even be more dirty than their gasoline-powered cousins.People in California love to tal about “ero-emissions(排放)vehicles”, but people in California seem to be clueless about where electricity comes from. Power plants mostly use fire to mae it. Aside from the new fols who have their roofs covered with solar cells, we get our electricity from generators(发电机). Generators are fueled by something--usually coal, oil, but also by heat generated in nuclear power plants. There are a few wind farms and geothermal(地热)plants as well, but by far we get electricity mainly by burning something.In other words, those "ero-emissions" cars are liely coal-burning cars. It’s just because the coal is burned somewhere else, it loos clean. It is not. It's as if the California Greens are covering their eyes—“If I can't see it, it's not happening.” Gasoline is an incredibly efficient way to power a vehicle; a gallon of gas has a lot of energy in it. But when you tae that gas (or another fuel) and first use it to mae electricity, you waste a nice part of that energy, mostly in the form of wasted heat—at the generator, through the transmission lines, etc.A gallon of gas may propel your car 25 miles. But the electricity you get from that gallon of gas won't get you nearly as far— so electric cars burn more fuel than gasoline-powered ones. If our electricity came mostly from nues or geothermal, or hydro or wind or solar, then an electric car truly would be clean. But for political, technical, and economic reasons, we don't use much of those energy sources.In addition, electric cars' batteries which are poisonous for a long time will eventually end up in a landfill. And finally, when cars are the polluters, the pollution is spread acrossall the roads. When it's a power plant, though, all the jun is in one place. Nature is very good at cleaning up when things are too concentrated, but it taes a lot longer when all the garbage is in one spot.32. What is the main idea of the tet?A. Electric cars are far from cleanB. Electric cars are better than gasoline-powered onesC. People cast doubts on electric cars’ batteriesD. Gasoline is an efficient way to power a vehicle33. The electricity we get from a gallon of gas may mae our car run ______.A. not less than 25 milesB. as far as 50 milesC. not more than 25 milesD. as far as 25 miles34. According to the tet, electric cars ______.A. are more environmentally friendlyB. burn more fuel than gas-powered onesC. are very good at cleaning up when things are not too concentratedD. are poisonous for a long time and will eventually end up in a landfill35. It can be inferred from the tet that ______.A. being green is good and should be encouraged in communicationB. electric cars are now the dominant vehicle compared with gasoline-powered cousinsC. ero-emissions vehicles should be chosen to protect our environmentD. electric cars are not clean because we get electricity mainly by burning something 【答案】ACBD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,选项中有两项为多余选项。
