2017年上海市杨浦区高考一模英语试题一、用单词的适当形式完成短文1. Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.In two days, it will be Christmas, children all over world 【小题1】 (look) forward to this day for weeks. People celebrate Christmas with food, decorations, music and more. But for many people, gift-giving is the most exciting part of the holiday.I have found memories of Christmas shopping with my family as a child. I enjoyed the challenge of keeping my parents’ gifts a secret. It was hard to buy gifts right. 【小题2】 their noses without them seeing. Everyone placed 【小题3】 (wrap) gifts under the Christmas tree until Christmas morning, 【小题4】 we opened them.Picking a great gift require 【小题5】(know) the person you’re giving it to. You need to know the person’s tastes and find something the person doesn’t already have. This can be quite a big chall enge. Often it’s wise to provide a receipt 【小题6】 the person needs to exchange the gift.The best gifts are personal. Many Americans don’t feel money constitutes a good gift 【小题7】it doesn’t require any thought. They prefer something chosen just for the per son. If the gift is a high-quality homemade gift, that’s even better.Gift-giving reflects the reason 【小题8】 people celebrate Christmas. Christians in particular remember the birth of Jesus. When he was born, wise men traveled many miles to visit him, 【小题9】(bring) expensive gifts. But the greatest gift wasn’t from the wise man, but from God—the baby Jesus. God gave this gift because everyone needed it. We needed God to forgive our bad actions so that we 【小题10】 live forever with him. So on Christmas we give presents to imitate God’s action of giving the perfect gift.二、选用适当的单词或短语补全短文2. Directions: Fill each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Donald Trump 【小题1】 his place as the United States 45tℎ president after crossing the 270 electoral vote threshold (门槛) on November 9. The 70-year-old Republican will take over from Barack Obama, a two-term president to occupy with White House.The rise of Trump, a celebrity businessman with no previous experience in the 【小题2】 or elected office, surprised nearly everyone in politics. Trump’s victory over Clinton will end eight years of Democratic 【小题3】 of the White House. He will govern with Congress fully under Republican control and lead a country deeply 【小题4】 by his campaign against Clinton. Given the numerous Republicans who never backed him, Trump will have to face divisions within his own party, too.As he claimed victory, Trump 【小题5】Americans to “come together as one united people.”“I pledge to every citizen of our land that I will be president for all Americans he said in his victory speech. Striking a gentle tone, Trump continued that he would teach out to a few of those who had chosen not to support him for 【小题6】 and help so that “we can work together and unify our great country.”As president, Trump’s governing agenda remains unclear. The president elect has promised to bring changes to the United States. He said he would build a wall along the U.S-Mexio border to stop immigrants from coming into the country 【小题7】. 【小题8】immigration from countries with ties to terrorist groups, and bargain with foreign governments such as those of Russia and China. Trump has also promised to prioritize the economic growth that creates jobs and 【小题9】 incomes for all Americans.Trump is a wild card, many voters said, but he definitely has a chance to be a successful president as long as he recognizes the responsibilities he 【小题10】 and follows through on his promises.三、完形填空3. Security guard, truck driver, salesperson—year after year, these jobs appear onlists of the unhappiest careers. Although many factors can make a job _________—unusual hours, low pay, no chance for advancement—these three jobs _________ for another reason: a lack of small talk.Psychologists have long said that connecting with others is central to our well-being, but just how much conversation we require is under _________ . In one study, researchers overheard undergraduates for four days and then _________ each conversations either “small talk” (“What do you have there? Pop corn? Yummy!”) or “serious” (“Did they break up soon after?”). They found that the second type is connected with happiness—the happiest students had roughly twice as many “serious” ta lks as the unhappiest ones. Small talk, meanwhile, _________ only ten percent of their conversation, versus almost 30 percent of conversation among the unhappiest students.However, don’t just consider small talk _________ yet. Scientists believe that small talk could promote bonding. Chatting with strangers could _________ our morning. In a series of experiments, psychologists found that those who chatted with other train passengers reported a more pleasant journey than those who didn’t.Small talk can also help us feel connected to our _________ . People who smiled at, made eye contact with and _________ spoke with their Starbucks baristas (咖啡师) reported a greater sense of __________ than those who rushed through the transaction (交易). __________ , when volunteers broke the silence of the art gallery to chat with gallery-goers, the visitors felt happier and more connected to the exhibit than those who were not __________.Of course, some of us are better than others at turning small talk into something bigger. In one study, people who were rated “less curious” by researchers had trouble getting a conversation __________ on their own. People who were considered “curious”, meanwhile, needed no help __________ conversations about ordinary things like favorite holidays into friendly exchanges.

I can remember all the pain you've caused for me.Do you remember the night you almost took my father's life? I do. He loves you. Sometimes I think he loves you more than he loves me. He's addicted to you, to the way you promise to rid him of his problems only to cause more of them. You just sat back and laughed as his car went spinning through the street, crashing into two other cars. He wasn't the only one hurt by you that night.Do you remember the night of my first high school party? You were there. My friends were intrigued by you. They treated you as if they were never going to see you again, drinking all of you that they could. I spent two hours that night helping my friends who had fallen completely. "I'm so embarrassed, "they said as I held their hair back so that they could vomit (呕吐)."I'm sorry," they said when I called taxies for them, walking them out and paying the driver in advance. "This won't happen again, "they said as they were sent to the hospital to have their stomachs pumped. Two 15-year-old girls slept in hospital beds that night thanks to you.Do you remember the night when you took advantage of my 17-year-old neighbor who had to drive to pick up his sister from her dance lessons? Do you know how we all felt when he hit another car and killed the two people in the other car? He died the next morning too. His sister walked home from her dance lesson, and passed police cars and a crowd of people gathering on the sidewalk just two blocks away from the dance studio. She didn't realize her brother was in the midst of it all. She never saw him again. And it's all your fault.I wish you'd walk out of my life forever. I don't want anything to do with you. Look at all the pain you've caused. Sure, you've made people happy too from time to time. But the damage you've caused in the lives of millions is inexcusable. Stop luring (引诱) in the people I love. Stop hurting me, please.Sincerely,Me(1)What did alcohol do to the author's father that night?A It made him drunk and took his life away.B It made him kill two other people when he was driving.C It got him into a car accident and badly injured.D It got him into trouble and got his stomach pumped.(2)The underlined phrase "were intrigued by" in the letter probably means ______.A were interested inB were satisfied withC were familiar withD were disappointed by(3)What is the author's purpose of writing this letter?A To warn people not to drive after drinking.B To persuade people to get away from alcohol.C To tell people three sad stories about alcohol.D To warn people againstthe pain caused by alcohol.(4)How was the author feeling while writing this letter?A Shocked.B Responsible.C Responsible.D Sorrowful.5.this_is_a_tag_for_row_span_begin(1)The total capacity for the public forum on knee and joint pain is ________ people.A 5B 20C 50D 100(2)Mr Li, a marathon runner, has an irreparable slip disc (椎间盘突出).

China’s domestically developed, long-acting experimental AIDS drug is undergoing a final review by the China Food and Drug Administration, the last stage in the approval process.Different from traditional oral drugs that require daily use, but it’s a heavy burden for patients to take medicine every day for years. As a result, long-acting drugs are the future direction in developing innovative AIDS medicine. For Chinese patients, the number of oral drugs available in the domestic market is very limited, so there is an urgent need for drugs to solve the problem of drug resistance.Zhao Yan, a treatment specialist at the National Center for AIDS said seven or eight oral drugs for AIDS are currently provided to patients for free. “The injection solution could give an alternative to patients ... if it could be included in the country’s health insurance system,” she said.“Now very few patients are using drugs from the health insurance system, both because no differentiated drugs are provided and because the procedure is more complex and could harm t heir privacy,” she said. “New drugs will be broadly used only if the system can embrace more varieties of drugs.”Albuvirtide went into the research and development stage in 2002 and entered phase three of clinical trials—a step to assure safety and effectiveness before market approval—in 2014. Phase three is the last round of clinical trials for new drug tests in China. If the drug can pass the reviews of the country’s drug watchdog, usually at least two rounds, it can then enter the market. The time needed for the review ranges from months to years.Clinical trials showed that the new drug performs even better than the oral drugs being used. Most of the oral drugs for AIDS being used in China are generic drugs developed in the 1970s and …80s that a re not so efficient. In terms of safety and effectiveness, evidence so far showed that Albuvirtide is better than most second-line drugs—drugs used when first-line standard drugs fail—in developed countries because of lower toxicity (毒性) and fewer side effects.Worldwide, a number of long-acting AIDS drug are in development. None has been approved for sale. Only Albuvirtide and a few in the United States have entered phase three of clinical trials.(1)Albuvirtide is ________.A a China-developed long-acting oral AIDS drugB undergoing a clinical test on dogs to assure its safetyC more efficient than other AIDS drugs and has fewer sideeffects D the only AIDS drug that has entered the last round of clinical trials(2)Albuvirtide is good news for AIDS patients in China because ________.A it’s a new drug and they are not resistant to itB it is one of the most effective first-line drugsC it has been included in the health insurance systemD they can keep their privacy by being injected once a week(3)Which of the following statements is FALSE?A The research and development of Albuvirtide began in 2002.B There are usually three phases in the clinical trial for a new drug.C Albuvirtide is now in the stage of carrying out clinical trials.D The time needed for review varies from drug to drug.(4)We can infer from the passage that ________.A Albuvirtide can spare patients from taking oral drugs every dayB the health insurance system has room for further improvementC most AIDS drugs being used now were developed in last centuryD China is leading the whole world in the field of AIDS research五、六选四7. Where do you think the world's happiest people live? Somewhere hot with sandy beaches? A country with a tradition of the fine food and culture? Not according to a recent study by the university of Leicester. Who are the happiest people on Earth?(1)_______Surprised? Well you'll be more surprised when you hear that the Danes pay some of the highest taxes in the world. So what is the secret of their success?Let's start with all that tax they pay. The Danish government provides its people with one of the finest education and health systems in the world. It spends more on children and elderly people per capital(人均) than other country.(2)_______ Because a shop assistant's final salary is not that much less than someone who works in a bank, for example, Danes don't choose their careers based on money or status as people in other countries do. They choose the job they want to do. There's a philosophy in Denmark known as "Jante﹣lov", which translates as "you're no better than anybody else." (3)_______ But workers in other countries are not used to looking at life in this way.Money doesn't seem as important in Denmark. It has been called a "post consumerist" society.(4)_______What is more important is the sense of society and it's no surprise that Danes are very used to socializing. 92% of Danes belong to some kind of social club and these clubs are even paid for by the government.(5)_______They also show an amazing amount of trust in each other and their government. You can see sighs of this all over the country. You'll find vegetable stalls with no assistant. You take what you want and leave the money in a basket. perhaps the bike is a good symbol for Denmark. The Danes can afford cars but they choose bikes﹣simple,economical, non﹣polluting machines that show no status and help keep people fit.A. In a list ranking countries by the happiness of their citizens, it put tropical Fiji 50 places below freezing Iceland.B. The street sweeper can hold his head up high as he proudly does his job.C. Danish people aren't as suspicious as many other nations.D. Most Danes are used to seeing between 50﹣70% of their salary going to the government!E. Those 5.5 million people who call Denmark their home.F. People have nice things in their houses, but they're not mad about shopping and spending.G. And there's another advantage to those high taxes.六、概要写作8.On a damp, boring, stay-in-the-house kind of day, I was a 4-year-old artist armed with a new treasure: my own big box of crayons(蜡笔).

It was at her company's annual picnic that my mother met my father, and he walked her home.The next week, from his home in Chicago, he sent her a post card: Remember me ple ase.Do be calling you one of these days.--David.She still has that post card.I am not sure what made her save.Though he already had hi s heart set on her, she hadn't chosen him yet, at least not consciously.My father, a salesman for a big electronics company, often told us while we were growing u p, it was blind luck that he was at the picnic that day.He was in town to meet with clients a nd happened to stop by the branch office that Saturday morning to make a call.It was the m anager of a local radio station where my mother worked as a writer."Dave!Glad you're in to wn!"he said, and invited him to come right over to their annual picnic.Later my mother dat ed him when he was in town.Eventually, one night a few months later, she woke her mother and told her she was going to marry Dave.A few months after the wedding, my father was t ransferred east.They settled in New York, in the house where I grew up.Sometimes I think how time gets us together and puts us in a certain place where we're fac ed with one option or another.We leave behind while others live by the choice we made.We could have lived full of different passions and joys, different problems and disappointmen ts.Sometimes, particularly when I came home late to a sleeping house, my husband and dau ghter curled around each other.I think about the lives we would not have had if choices had brought us to a different place.And I tremble at the thought that I might have missed this li fe, this man, this child, this love.(1)According to the text,where did the author's parents come across?________A At the author's home.B At a local radio station.C At her father's company's pic nic.D At her mother's company's picnic.(2)It can be inferred from the text that________.A the author's father didn't like her mother .B the author's mother always made right decisions.C the author didn't believe her mother.D the author's mother hadn't d ecided to marry her father at first.(3)Before meeting the author's father,her mother was________.A a writer .B a manager .C a teacher .D a saleswoman.(4)What do we know about the author?________A She values her life now.B Time makes her life now perfect.C She is tired of he r life now.D Her life now faces problems and disappointments.3. Halloween is perhaps the third most popular holiday for parties, coming after New Year' s and Christmas.With Halloween, we have the opportunity to dress up for the night and"be someone else".Team MakerIf you are going to have games, you may require teams.One way to put together the teams randomly, thus encouraging guests who don't already know each other, is to have them draw pieces from a cauldron(大锅)or witch's hat.Beforehand, write enough words on pieces of paper to have one for every gu est.On the pieces of paper write words like: Egyptian tomb, pyramid, magic wand, magic sp ell, black cat, etc.Everyone draws a piece of paper.Dress Up the DeadThis game is not for the shy and may result in some small rude performance.For the gam e, you will need a put-together skeleton.They can be found in the Halloween section of many stores.The skeleton can be of wood or plastic, so long as it can be taken apart easily and can be recombined tog ether.The host"buries"the broken up skeleton under a pile of sawdust, loose dirt or hay in t he yard.The first team, while being timed, must discover all the skeleton pieces then run to where there's a hook for hanging the skeleton.They must recombine the skeleton and then, donating parts of their own clothing, dress the skeleton in a shirt and pants.Murder MysteryHost a murder mystery as a play.Select players, either by volunteers or by random drawi ng or even have guests vote.While the players read over their parts, the rest of the guests ar range the room.Set up a row of chairs facing the party audience.This will be the"stage"wh ere the murder mystery players will sit and perform their roles.The host keeps the game (play) moving, usually by playing one of the detective characters.(1)How can people form a team?________A By giving a performance.B By making a witch's hat.C By writing some words .D By drawing a piece of paper.(2)What persons are suitable for Dress Up the Dead?________A Those who can tell stories.B Those who are not brave enough.C Those who d on't mind small rudeness.D Those who are not good at making up.(3)What is the function of chairs in Murder Mystery?________A They are prepared for the audience to sit.B They are used to sit in and perform for t he players.C They are prepared for the host to guide the players.D They are used to attract the audience's attention.(4)What is the best title for the text?________A Games for Halloween Party .B How to Prepare for the Halloween Party?.C T he Reason Why Halloween Party Is Popular.D What Is the Purpose of Halloween Party ?.4. Researchers with the University of Cambridge say they have the first real evidence of a n ew state of matter, some 40 years after it was first theorized.Known as"quantum spin liquid(量子旋转水)", the matter state causes normally unbreakable electrons to break into pieces called"Majora na fermions."These fermions are an important discovery.Physicists believe the material is vital to further develop quantum computing.Computers employing Majorana femuons wo uld be able to carry out calculations beyond the scale of modern computers quickly, they say. Quantum spin liquid explains some of the eccentric behaviors inside magnetic(磁性的)materials.In these materials, the electrons should behave like small bar magnets, all adjusti ng towards magnetic north when a material is cooled.But not all magnetic materials do this-if the material contains quantum spin liquid, the electrons don't all line up and become invol ved."Until recently, we didn't even know what the experimental fingerprints of a quantum spin liquid would look like, "researcher Dr.Dmitry Kovrizhin says."That created a challenge for the researchers, so they decided to employ neutron scattering(神经扫描)techniques to look for evidence of break".What they found surprised them.The features matched nearly exactly with quantum spin liquid models theorized by physicist Phil Anderson in 1973.The results of their breakthrough were then published in the scientific journal N ature Materials on Monday.Don't get too excited just yet on its applications, though.Kovirzhin's work is only the begi nning and as we've seen with quantum computing there is a lot of work to be done.But it's still exciting regardless."It's an important step for our understanding of quantum matter, "Kovrizhin says."It's fun to have another new quantum state that we've never seen before-it presents us with new possibilities to try new things."(1)What can we learn,about"Majorana fermion"according to Paragraph 2?________A It is an important discovery 40years ago.B It is a surprising theory raised by Phil An derson.C It is a key piece in developing quantum computer.D It is an unbreakabl e electrons employing computer.(2)Which of the following can best replace the underlined word"eccentric"in Paragraph 3?________A Strange.B Complex.C Permanent.D Obvious.(3)How did the researchers make the breakthrough?________A By adjusting magnetic materials.B By using neutron scattering techniques.C B y repeating maths calculations.D By changing electronic structure.(4)What is the author's tone about the future of quantum matter?________A Negative.B Doubtful.C Indifferent.D Optimistic.第二节根据短文内容,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.5.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。

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)In many countries of the world, people can confidently tell you the meaning of their town or city, but most people who live in Manchester, Oxford or Birmingham would not be able to explain what the name of their city means. The name of every British town and city, however, has a long history.Two thousand years ago, most people living in Britain were Celts. Even the word “Britain”is Celtic. Then the Romans arrived and built camps which became cities called “castra”. This is why there are so many place names in England which end in “-chester” or “-caster”–Manchester, for example.The Romans never reached Wales or Scotland, and many place names there are Celtic. For example, Welsh place names that begin with “Llan” come from the Celtic word for church.After the Romans left Britain, it was attacked by tribes called the Anglo-Saxons who were from the area of Europe that is now Germany and Holland. Without the Roman army, it was impossible to protect the country from these people. The names of their villages often ended in “-ham”or “-ton”. Some got their name from the leader of the village, so Birmingham, for example, means “Beormund’s village”.The Anglo-Saxons were farmers and the landscape was very important to them, so we have villages called Upton (“village on a hill”–a good place to build a village) and Moreton (“village by lake”, where floods could make life tough). Place names that end in “-ford” (a place where you could cross a river) also describe the location of Anglo-Saxon villages.Twelve hundred years ago, the Vikings came to England from Scandinavia. They traded with the Anglo-Saxons but lived in their own villages. These often ended in “-by” or “-thorpe”. The name “Kirkby” means “a village with a church” and Scunthorpe was the village of a man called Skuma.Finally, in 1066, England became Norman –the Normans gave us the place name “grange”,which means farm.And how about London? Experts cannot agree. The Romans called the city Londinium, but they were not the first inhabitants. People once believed that the United Kingdom’s capital city got its name from the castle of a King called Lud, but this is very unlikely. Our best guess today is that the name comes from a Celtic word meaning a fastflowing river. Like a number of British place names, its history is lost in time.56. The origin of British place names are unfamiliar to many local people because of _______.A. the death of the country’s ancient languages.B. the long lost history of the names.C. their lack of interest in the names.D. the frequent changes to the names.57. According to the article, Stratford-upon-Avon is most likely a town _______.A. on a hillB. near a castleC. built beside a riverD. with a church58. Which of the following shows the correct order of the arrival of inhabitants in Britain?A. The Celts –The Romans – The Vikings –The Normans –The Anglo SaxonsB. The Romans –The Celts –The Vikings –The Anglo Saxons–The NormansC. The Celts –The Romans –The Anglo Saxons–The Vikings –The NormansD. The Romans –The Anglo Saxons–The Celts –The Normans –The Vikings59. According to the text, where did the name for London come from?A. It is puzzling and hard to confirm for sure.B. It comes from the term for a fast-flowing river.C. The name is short for Londinium.D. The name is from the castle of a King.(B)Metropolitan North Georgia Water Planning District 2016 High School Video ContestHere’s the Scoop on Pet Waste!60.

Where should the participants upload their videos?A. participants’ school websites.B. .C. YouTube.D. kvaIlianos@.(C)For many years, humans have tried to find the secret to staying young. Although it has yet to be discovered, we may be closer than ever to finding a way that can slow down the aging process.A recent study by researchers from Duke University in the US found that cutting one’s daily intake of calories could slow down biological aging, which means you might be able to hang on to your youthful looks a little longer.Previous research has shown that calorie restrictions slow aging in worms, flies and mice. So researchers wondered if it could have the same effect on people.To find out, Daniel Belsky and her team examined data from a study by the National Institute on Aging, based in the US, which involved 220 people. During the two-year study, 145 people in the restriction group cut their calorie intake by 25 percent. Meanwhile, 75 people in the control group maintained their normal diets.At the start of the study, the two groups had no difference in biological age. The average participant was 38 years old, with a biological age of 37. However, after each 12-month period, participants in the restriction group saw an increase in biological age by an average of 0.11years. Meanwhile, those in the control group saw a rise by an average of 0.71 years.The researchers believe the difference between these groups shows that cutting calories does slow biological aging.Although they didn’t explain the reason behind this, researchers at Brigham Young University in the US provided an explanation after they carried out a similar study on mice.They believe fewer calories slow down a mechanism in cells called the ribosome (核糖体), at least in mice. The mechanism is responsible for making vital proteins in cells, but with fewer calories it slows down, giving it more time to repair itself.The ribosome is complex like a car, and it needs to replace the parts that wear out thefastest from time to time, according to John Price, a biochemistry professor at Brigham Young University.“When tires wear out, you don’t throw the whole car away and buy new ones. It’s easier to replace the tires,” Price told VOA.But this doesn’t mean that people who want to look younger should start skipping meals, especially given the study’s early stage. Proper nutrition is important, Price explained.“Food isn’t just material to be burned –it’s a signal that tells our body and cells how to respond,” he told Science Daily.63. The purpose of the research was to _________.A. find the most efficient way to control calorie intake.B. explain why people have to maintain a normal diet.C. test the influence of calorie restrictions on aging.D. invent technology that keeps people young and healthy.64. Which of the following statements is TRUE about the experiment?A. All the participants were of the same biological age at the start.B. The biological age of people in the control group increased more than those in therestriction group.C. Flies and mice were used to compare the results of the human test with.D. Some participants were asked to double the amount of food they ate.65. According to John Price, ________.A. the ribosome is an important cell that controls the aging process.B. a higher level of calorie intake means more healthy proteins.C. the fewer calories one takes in, the better the ribosome works.D. reducing calorie intake could allow the ribosome to repair itself better.66. We can infer from the text that ________.A. those who want to stay young are advised to skip meals.B. people should keep a record of the energy they burn every day.C. maintaining a balanced diet is not as difficult as people imagine.D. we could slow our pace of biological aging by changing our eating habits.Section CDirections: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than youPlus-size women might be socially frowned upon(不赞成) and openly avoided by the fashion industry. ___67___A study done a few years ago by Plunkett Research, a market-research firm, found that 67% of American women were “plus-size,” meaning size 14 or larger. That figure might not have changed much, but in 2016, only 18% of clothing sold was plus-size, according to NPD Group, another research firm.Designers and retailers have long thought of the plus-size as high-risk. Predicting what these customers will buy can be difficult, as they tend to be more cautious about styles. Making larger clothes is more expensive; but higher costs for fabric cannot always be passed on to consumers. ___68___ “We have money but nowhere to spend it,” says Kristine Thompson, who runs a blog which has nearly 150,000 followers on Instagram.At last, that is changing. Fast-fashion brands, including Forever 21 and a fashion line sold in partnership with Target, a giant retailer, have expanded their plus-size collections. ___69___ Revenue in the plus-size category increased by 14% between 2013 and 2016, compared with growth of 7% for all apparel (服装). Takings (营业额) were $21.3 billion last year. Social media has played an important role in changing attitudes in the fashion business, says Madeline Jones, editor and co-founder of PLUS Model Magazine.Nonetheless, designer brands still hold back. ___70___ For those that are willing to take a chance, several internet startups (创业公司) that deliver personally styled outfits to individuals, including plus-size women, offer data to “straight-size” designers.Not all plus-size shoppers are convinced. Laura Fuentes, a hairstylist from Abilene, Texas, says that many upmarket(高端市场的) department stores still keep their plus-size clothing sections poorly organized, badly stocked and dimly lit, if they stock larger clothes at all. Yet such complaints should be taken with a pinch of salt (有所保留), says Ms. Thompson. “We’re nowhere near where we should be but we’ve made progress,” she says.Directions:Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Sales strategiesHow can a company improve its sales? One of the keys to more effective selling is for a company to first decide on its “sales strategy”. In other words, what is the role of the sales person? Is the salesperson’s job narrative, suggestive, or consultative?The “narrative” sales strategy depends on the salesperson moving quickly into a standard sales presentation. His or her pitch highlights the benefit for the customer of a particular product or service. This approach is most effective for customers whose buying motives are basically the same.The “suggestive” approach is tailored more for the individual customer. The salesperson must be in a position to offer alternative recommendation s that meet a particular customer’s needs. One key aspect of the suggestive approach is the need for the salesperson to engage the buyer in some sort of discussion. The salesperson can then use the information from the customer to suggest an appropriate product or service.The final strategy demands that a company’s sales staff act as “consultants” for the buyer. In this role, the salesperson must acquire a great deal of information about the customer. They do this through market research, surveys, and face-to-face discussions. Using this information, the salesperson makes a detailed presentation t ailored to a consumer’s needs. More and more sales teams are switching from a narrative or a suggestive approach to a more consultative strategy. As a result, corporations value creativity and analytical skills.V.

AThe following list includes some books that come highly recommended by millions of readers and also a short summary of the highlights of each work.The Go-Giver, by Bob Burg and John David MannI didn’t even expect that such a short book could make a huge difference in my way towards life. It simply explains complex laws that direct mankind, and concludes that there is always truth in the opposite.Dao De Jing, by Lao ZiDao De Jing is one of the finest books on philosophy written by Lao Zi, an ancient Chinese philosopher and poet. It is sincere, exciting and makes you think a lot. Read it and get in touchwith the clear educative understandings that give you enough tips to pursue your life goal full of passion.The Science of Getting Rich, by Wallace D. WattlesI had my own misunderstandings of getting rich till I read this book. The book made a huge difference to my life after I discovered the secrets mentioned. Read it and it teaches you how to become rich, not immediately, but step by step.The Power of Habit, by Scott PeckSimply put. Buy this book for the path towards understanding in a spiritual way that strengthens your personal growth. This book never gives you easy solutions to the challenges of life; it simply says, “Real suffering is part of life.” and leaves you with better understanding to lead a fulfilled life.21. Which book can help you chase your dream passionately?A. Dao De Jing.B. The Go-Giver.C. The Road Less Travelled.D. The Science of Getting Rich.22. Who can tell you the secrets of becoming rich?A. Lao Zi.B. Scott Peck.C. Charles Duhigg.D. Wallace D. Wattles.23. Which of the following ideas may Scott Peck agree with?A. Habits can shape our future.B. There is always truth in the opposite.C. Difficulty is often part of personal growth.D. We should find easy solutions to challenges.24. What can we know about the books mentioned above?A. They are all easily written.B. They are all popular books.C. All their writers are foreigners.D. All the books are about life goals.BMuch information can be clearly conveyed, purely through our eyes, so th e expression “eyes also talk” is often heard.Can you recall any experience that further proves this statement? On a bus you may quickly glance at a stranger, but not make eye contact. If he senses that he is being stared at, he may feel uncomfortable.It is the same in daily life. If you are looked at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down to see if there is anything wrong with you. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel angry about others’ stare at you that way. Eyes do convey inform ation, right?Looking too long at someone may seem to be rude and aggressive. But things are different when it comes to staring at the opposite sex. If a man looks at a woman for more than 10 seconds and refuses to turn away his gaze(注视), his intentions are obvious, that is, he wishes to attract her attention, to make her understand that he is showing affection for her.However, the normal eye contact for two people engaged in conversation is that the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time, in order to make sure that the listener does pay attention to what the former is speaking, to tell him that he is attentive.If a speaker looks at you continuously when speaking, as if he tries to control you, yo will feel uneasy. A poor liar usually exposes himself by looking too long at the victim, since he believes in the false idea that to look straight in the eye is a sign of honest communication.In fact, continuous eye contact happens between lovers only, who will enjoy looking at each other tenderly for a long time, to show love that words cannot express.Evidently, eye contact should be done according to the relationship between two people and the specific situation.25. What may a person usually do on a bus?A. Glance at a stranger with eye contact.B. Use eyes to talk to a stranger politely.C. Glance at s stranger without eye contact.D. Talk to a stranger politely after a quick glance.26. What does it mean if a man looks at a woman for over 10 seconds?A. He likes her eyes.B. He admires her.C. He knows her well.D. He makes contact with her.27. Why is a poor liar easy to be seen through?A. He thinks that he is honest.B. He wants to control the victim.C. He feels uneasy about others’ eye contact.D. He looks straight at the victim for too long a time.28. What may be the best title for the text?A. Eyes Can SpeakB. Eye Contact MattersC. Don’t Stare at OthersD. Use Your Eye ContactCChildren can make some pretty big statements and grand promises. An 8-year-old boy who promised to get his dad his dream car was no exception--but then he actually fulfilled his promise.A Reddit(红迪网)user going by the username Belairboy wrote that when he was 8 years old, he told his dad he would buy him a 1957 Chevrolet(雪弗兰)Bel Air on his 57th birthday.“He g rew up poor in a family of seven children. He never thought he would be able to own his dream vehicle but would talk about it all the time.” Belairboy wrote.Then the day came.He tricked his father to look in the garage while the older man was trying to fix corn-hole board. When the dad finally looked up from his project and his son said “Happy birthday!”, all the father could say in a trembling tone was “No” as he tearfully went in for a hug.“Oh my God. Oh my God! This is real!” the father said as he climbed into the driver’s seat. “You’re kidding me. This is spotless, man.”Later, Belairboy said that he had kept a close eye on the car for two years to make the promise come true.“We would talk about older vehicles so as to make sure how much he would enj oy it. I wouldshow him pictures of it from the listing I found, unknown to him that it would actually be his one day,” Belairboy wrote. “He would get so excited and talk about owning something that he knew he never would be able to.”29. Why did the fathe r say “No” when seeing his birthday present?A. He didn’t know what happened.B. He wanted to hug his dear son first.C. He was too excited to say anything else.D. He knew little about this type of vehicle.30. What did the father think of his dream car at first?A. He wouldn’t like it at all.B. He would own one some day.C. His son would buy one for him.D. He would never have it in his life.31. Which of the following can best describe Belairboy?A. He is worth trust.B. He is warm-hearted.C. He is well-received.D. He is hardworking.DMany Beijing residents go to great lengths to avoid breathing the city’s smoggy air, especially when it reaches critical pollution levels, but one local businessman decided that canning and selling this poor quality air as a souvenir would be a great idea. Believe it or not, he was right.After seeing a number of companies achieve commercial success by canning fresh air from ountries like France, Canada or Australia and selling it in China, Dominic Johnson-Hill, a British-born citizen of Beijing and owner of the Plastered 8(创可贴8)souvenir shop, decided to turn the idea on its head and sell canned Beijing air throughout China and abroad.“I’d seen people going crazy to buy canned air from Canada and Australia, so I thought i t was time to push business the other way,” the businessman said. “They’re perfect gifts! What else are you going to take home when you go home from Beijing? A roast duck? A Plastered T-shirt? These cans are light, easily carried home. You can just imagine someone;s face when they unwrapit for Christmas.”The few mouth-fulls of Beijing air come in standard tin cans featuring a couple of famous city landmarks as well as a bitter description of the contents: “a unique mix of nitrogen(氮气), oxygen and probably some unknown stuff”. The ironic(讽刺的)souvenirs cost 28 RMB (US$4) and are available at the Plastered 8 shop, as well as in its online shop. But if you’re actually considering buying some, you’d better ask the shop in advance, as they are always flying off the shelves. Johnson-Hill said that his shop is selling hundreds of Beijing air cans every day.Personally, the well-sold can probably is an awakening for the public to be concerned about the living conditions. Yet one thing that’s not particularly clear is whether the air is really collected from Beijing, because the cans are labeled as “Made in Shenzhen”. There’s a big chance that it is just a kind of “Plastered 8 humor”, as they also list “Choking Risk” and “May have unidentified objects inside” as warn ings.Anyway, it is probably a unique way to arouse public awareness of protecting the environment.32. What are many people in Beijing likely to do with the smoggy air?A. Try to get used to it.B. Can it as a souvenir.C. Sell it all over the world.D. Try their best to avoid.33. How may one feel when receiving canned Beijing air for Christmas?A. Satisfied.B. Surprised.C. Frightened.D. Refreshed.34. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “stuff” in paragraph 4?A. liquidsB. objectsC. mineralsD. risks35. What can we infer from the passage?A. There are unidentified objects in the canned Beijing air.B. The Plastered 8 souvenir shop is famous for its humuor.C. The writer may expect us to care more about the environment.D. Dominic Johnson-Hill is a British man who lives in Beijing.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。

It uses three dimensional(3-D)printing to re-create famous paintings so they can be touched.One painting printed with the new technology is Gustav Klimt's "The Kiss". It is a popular attraction at the Belvedere Museum in Vienna, Austria. The painting shows a man and a woman standing in a field filled with flowers. They are wearing gold robes and have their arms around each other. The man leans down to kiss the woman.Klimt finished the painting in 1908. Until now, people who had trouble seeing could not appreciate the artwork. But thanks to the reproduction they can touch the piece and feel the ridges and depressions. Andreas Reichinger started making 3-D versions of artwork in 2010. He said this reproduction was his most difficult project because the couple's robes are so detailed.Dominika Raditsch is a blind museum visitor. She touched the reproduction. As she moved her hands around it she said, "Exactly, can you see these There are so many details. " Raditsch said she can imagine what the original painting looks like when she touches the reproduction. "It's somehow round. You can feel it. You can feel it. It comes with it. And in many places it's so smooth. And then I think to myself: it probably shines too!" Raditsch said.The Belvedere is not the only museum to have 3-D versions of its artwork. Some of the pieces at the Prado, in Madrid, Spain have reproductions that can be touched. But the piece in Vienna has one special part: It is made with widely available 3-D printing technology.

As a lover of tea since her childhood in Portugal, she brought tea-drinking to the English royal court and set a trend for TAL#NBSP the beverage in the 17th century. The fashion soon spread beyond the circle of the nobility to the middleclasses, and tea became a popular drink at the London coffee houses where people met to do business and discuss events of the day. Many employers served a cup of tea to their workers in the middle of the morning, thus inventing a lasting British institution, the "tea break." However, drinking tea in social settings outside the workplace was beyond the means of the majority of British people. It came with a high price tag and tea was taxed as well.Around 1800, the seventh Duchess of Bedford, Anne Maria, began the popular practice of "afternoon tea, " a ceremony taking place at about four o'clock. Until then, people did not usually eat or drink anything between lunch and dinner. At approximately the same time, the Earl of Sandwich popularized a new way of eating bread—in thin slices, with something like jam or cucumbers between them. Before long, a small meal at the end of the afternoon, involving tea and sandwiches, had become part of the British way of life.As tea became much cheaper during the 19th century, its popularity spread right through all corners of the British society. Thus, tea became Britain's favorite drink. In working-class households, it was served with the main meal of the day, eaten when workers returned home after a day's labor.

Its development in Britain.B. Its traditional ways of drinking.C. Its influence around the world.D. Its popularity in Europe.(2) What does the underlined words "the beverage" probably refer to?A. Tea drinking.B. A small meal.C. A way of eating bread.D. A choice of drinks.(3) Why was tea unable to be accepted as a common drink in Britain in the 17th centuryA. It was merely served in London.B. It was taxed as an alcoholic drink.C. It was forbidden in business settings.D. It was too expensive for most people.(4) How is the text organizedA. By cause and effect.B. By comparison.C.

But backslap(拍背)someone who isn't a family member or a good friend in Korea, and you'll make them uncomfortable. In Thailand, the head is considered sacred-never even pat a child on the head.●Talking Over DinnerIn some countries, like China, Japan and some African nations, the food's the thing, so don't start chatting about your day's adventures while everyone else is digging into dinner.3It's not because your group is unfriendly, but because meal times are for eating, not talking.●Removing Your Shoes or NotTake off your shoes when arriving at the door of a London dinner party and the hostess will find you uncivilized, but fail to remove your shoes before entering a home in Asia, Hawaii, or the Pacific Islands and you'll be considered disrespectful. So, if you see a row of shoes at the door, start undoing your laces.4Once you are on the ground of a different country, remain highly sensitive to nativebehavior.5And don't feel offended if something seems offensive-like queue jumping.After all, this is a global village, and we are all very different.A. Personal space varies as you travel the globe.B. Asians consider removing shoes impolite at home.C. Never be completely surprised by anything.D. The linguistic mistake means that someone is not fully expressing his idea.E. Look out for the following cultural mistakes and try to avoid them.F. If not, keep the shoes on.G. You'll likely be met with silence.三、完形填空(共20小题,每题1.5分,计30分)6、【来源】 2017年山东济南高三一模第16题30分I spent last summer volunteering at a hospital.
